BILL SANSERVINO FROM THE EDITOR
A lot has changed since the last time you got the WWP News in your mailbox. COVID-19 has impacted all of our lives, and I’m sure there are things that will never return to the way they were before. Fortunately there’s one thing that hasn’t changed—the staff at The News is still committed to providing accurate, timely news to our community. With our coronavirus coverage, our goal is not to alarm you, but to give you the information you need in order to stay safe, informed and connected. We want to keep things in context in order to help you make decisions, and highlight the things going on in our community—good and bad—that might affect you during this health crisis. These are certainly strange times, but we’re making the best of them. Several days ago, the governor issued his stay-at-home order, and it seems that for the foreseeable future, we in editorial will be doing our best to report the news from our home offices. There’s a lot more on our website, communitynews.org, than we could fit into this issue. Our editorial staff has been working around the clock to produce dozens of articles, approaching life in this area from every angle imaginable. Check out the website for up-to-theminute news and community-focused features. See LETTER, Page 4
WHAT ARE THE SYMPTOMS? These symptoms may appear two to 14 days after exposure to COVID-19: If emergency warning signs develop, get medical attention immediately
Fever
Cough
Shortness of breath
· Difficulty breathing · Persistent pain or pressure in the chest · New confusion or inability to arouse · Bluish lips or face
HOW DOES IT SPREAD? The COVID-19 virus is mainly spread person-to-person by being in close contact with someone (within 6 ft.) or through respiratory droplets from an infected person sneezing or coughing. Another way COVID-19 can spread is by touching a surface or object that has the virus on it and then touching the mouth, nose or eyes. HOW CAN I REDUCE MY RISK?
Wash hands ofte n
Stay home
Limit personal contact (6 ft.)
Stay away from sick people
Clean & disinfect frequently touched surfaces
Don’t touch eyes, nose or mouth with unwashed hands
Practice social distancing
Emergency medical corps seeks volunteers People with all levels of experience needed to help out in times of crisis By MicHele AlPerin
Mercer County needs you. Faced with a growing number of COVID-19 cases, the county has put out a call for volunteers to join the Mercer County Medical Reserve Corps, a group that has been created to assist during times of crisis. In the wake of September 11, the U.S. Office of the Surgeon General, established the MRC as a demonstration project, whose role is to identify,
train and track volunteers who can strengthen local public health and serve if another human-made or natural disaster occurred. MRC volunteer and East Windsor resident Al Grupper explains the government’s motivation: “When the World Trade Center fell, they had volunteers show up, but there was no management or structure. MRC has a chain of command and a mission.” “We don’t self-mobilize; we are called out for an emergency,” Grupper says. “If Stephanie [Mendelsohn, public health nurse and coordinator of the MRC] says ‘Come,’ we have to make sure our family is safe first, then we can go.” Mendelsohn, a Pennington resi-
dent, has been running from meeting to meeting and teleconference to teleconference, as the coronavirus continues to spread in the county. She says the MRC has already surveyed its volunteers to see if they would be available to staff a county hotline (to help handle the multitude of calls arriving at each municipality’s health department) and to do phone surveillance to check whether people who had been in contact with individuals with COVID-19 have any fever. “This is just the beginning stages; we want as many volunteers as we can get,” Mendelsohn says. “We have 359 volunteers, but with something like this coronavirus, not everyone is See VOLUNTEERS, Page 8

LETTER cont. from Page 1 If you like your news delivered directly to you, then you might be interested in our daily newsletter, which is sent to your email inbox each day. You can subscribe by going to communitynews.org, and signing up in the box in the right column. Many of the items you see in this newspaper—such as our story on Page 1 about the Mercer County Medical Reserve Corps—are the result of community members letting us know what they’re seeing and doing as COVID-19 makes its presence felt in our area. We’ve always enjoyed having this kind of relationship with our readers, but we need your help more than ever. Tell us your questions. Let us know what you’re seeing and what we should investigate. If we’re missing something, tell us. Send us your news tips to news@communitynews.org, or reach out to me using any of the contact information at the end of this column. I’m still picking up my phone and answering my email. As for this month’s print edition, we’ve made some changes that were necessary due to the current situation. We held the “Betting on Black” and “Ewing Then and Now” columns, and we are not running the calendar— mainly because almost all events in the region have been postponed or
cancelled. Since our office closed on March 16, the whole world seems to have changed. Schools and office buildings sit empty, and there are no cars on our normally traffic-clogged roads. But it’s our local businesses who stand to suffer the most from the fallout of this virus. For many, revenues stopped suddenly and without warning. While Amazon, Walmart and other online retailers are raking in cash as a result of the current situation, I fear for the mom-and-pop shops that are the true lifeblood of our communities. I would urge our readers to do whatever they can to help these businesses out, both now and when this crisis is over. One suggestion I’ve heard is for people to buy gift cards now and use them when things return to normal. And when things are finally less “strange” (hopefully soon), let’s all do our best to buy locally. Instead of ordering from Amazon, drive to an area brick-and-mortar store and buy from them. If we all make an effort, hopefully we can undo some of the damage that’s currently being done. Meanwhile, everyone please stay strong, stay safe and stay inside!

How to stay safe and be smart CDC, Department of Health offer tips and best practices By Nicole Viviano
The novel coronavirus, COVID-19, has come with an abundance of information since the pandemic has taken hold in New Jersey. The respiratory illness has prompted social distancing protocols in the state, cancellations of large gatherings and events and has made schools and colleges move all learning to remote access. The Plainsboro and West Windsor municipal buildings have closed until further notice, and the WW-P Regional School District has moved to a virtual/ remote learning environment. While many sources have published helpful and necessary information, some of it may seem overly comprehensive and divided among different platforms. Information from the World Health Organization, Centers for Disease Control & Prevention, New Jersey Department of Health and Mercer County government has been consolidated for ease of access. It is important to note that new information regarding COVID19 is being shared frequently and rapidly by these organizations. Paying attention to updated information is crucial to stay abreast of the situation. Below are general questions answered so that residents can keep healthy and stay informed: What are the common symptoms of COVID-19?Those who have reported illness have ranged from mild symptoms, like a common cold, to severe illness even and death. The following symptoms may appear two to 14 days after exposure to COVID-19 including: fever; cough; and shortness of breath. Populations at higher risk include older adults and people who have severe underlying chronic medical conditions like heart or lung disease or diabetes. According to the CDC, they seem to be at higher risk for developing more serious complications from COVID-19. People at higher risk for serious illness from COVID-19 should contact their healthcare provider early, even if their illness is mild. If emergency warning signs develop, get medical attention immediately. These signs include: Difficulty breathing or shortness of breath Persistent pain or pressure in the chest.
New confusion or inability to arouse. Bluish lips or face. It is important to note that this list provided by the CDC is not all inclusive. Consult a healthcare provider for any other symptoms that are severe or concerning. How long do symptoms take to appear? According to the CDC, COVID-19 symptoms may appear two to 14 days after exposure. This estimate is based on what has been seen previously as the incubation period of MERS-CoV viruses, another viral respiratory illness. What to do if someone has symptoms of COVID-19? Upon development of a fever and symptoms, such as cough or difficulty breathing, call a healthcare provider for medical advice before going to a medical facility. Here are steps to follow to protect others in the home and community if symptoms of COVID-19 present. Stay home: People who are mildly ill with COVID-19 are able to recover at home. Do not leave, except to get medical care. Do not visit public areas. Stay in touch with a doctor: Call before getting medical care. Calling the doctor’s office or emergency department will alert them that there is a possible case of COVID-19. This will help the office protect themselves and other patients, as well as allow you to describe symptoms and receive instructions on what to do next. Seek medical care right away if illness is worsening. Be sure to get care if symptoms worsen or if there is an emergency. Avoid using public transportation, including ridesharing and taxis. Implement home isolation, which is separating those who are sick from other people in the home. Cover coughs and sneezes. Clean hands often with soap and water. Be sure to scrub with soap for at least 20 seconds, which is how long it takes for the soap to break down the virus’s fatty envelope. If soap and water are not available, use an alcoholbased hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol. Avoid sharing personal household items if sick or someone in the home is sick. Clean and disinfect all “high-touch” surfaces daily. High-touch surfaces include phones, remote controls, counters, tabletops, doorknobs, bathroom fixtures, toilets, keyboards, tablets and bedside tables. Clean and disinfect areas that may have blood, stool or body fluids on them. Most EPAregistered household disinfectants See CORONAVIRUS, Page 6
If possible, put on a facemask when sick before entering a building.

CORONAVIRUS cont. from Page 5 should be effective. If possible, put on a facemask when sick before entering a building. If not, try to keep at least six feet away from others. Follow care instructions from healthcare provider and local health department: Local health authorities will give instructions on checking symptoms and reporting information. Call 911 if there’s a medical emergency: If in a medical emergency, call 911 and notify the operator of possible COVID-19 illness. If possible, put on a facemask before medical help arrives. How can you get tested for COVID-19? When should you get tested? If someone is in close contact with a patient with COVID-19 or they’re a resident in a community where there is ongoing spread of the illness and develop symptoms, call a healthcare provider and tell them about your symptoms and exposure. They will decide whether it’s needed to be tested. There is no treatment for COVID-19 and people who are mildly ill may be able to isolate and care for themselves at home. To avoid overcrowding medical facilities and risking unnecessary medical costs or exposure to COVID19, it is stressed to first reach out to a healthcare provider before seeking testing. What is the cost of testing? In order to avoid unnecessary medical costs, it is best practice to consult a medical professional over the phone
before visiting a medical facility or testing center. In the case of getting tested, the cost may vary depending upon which lab runs the test and what health insurance is held.

can discontinue home isolation after at least seven days since the date of their first positive COVID-19 test, and if there was no later illness. What are the best practices for avoiding and stopping the spread of COVID-19? One of the best ways to stay protected from COVID-19 is to stay informed on the latest information about the illness through trusted organizations and medical and government officials. Since there is no vaccine to prevent the disease, the best way to prevent COVID-19 is to avoid exposure. Practicing social distancing, limiting person-to-person contact, especially within 6 feet and staying away from sick persons, are all ways to reduce the chance of exposure. Simple daily habits, like washing hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, especially after being in a public place, or coughing or sneezing, can help prevent COVID-19 as well. If soap and water isn’t available be sure to use a hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol. Cover all surfaces of hands and rub them together until they feel dry. Avoid touching eyes, nose and mouth with unwashed hands. If sick, stay home and call a healthcare provider to go over symptoms and next steps. If sick and around others, such as sharing a room or vehicle, or not sick and caring for someone who is, wear a facemask.
Be sure to thoroughly clean and disinfect frequently touched surfaces every day. Those at higher risk, including older adults and people who have severe underlying chronic medical conditions should consult with a healthcare provider about additional steps that can be taken to protect themselves. What not to do. The WHO has straightened out some of the more pressing misinformation about the novel coronavirus. Antibiotics do not work against viruses; they only work on bacterial infections. COVID-19 is caused by a virus, so antibiotics do not work. Antibiotics should not be used as a means of prevention or treatment of COVID-19. They should only be used as directed by a physician to treat a bacterial infection. Smoking or wearing multiple masks are ineffective against COVID-19 and could be harmful. There is no vaccine for the current coronavirus. Vaccines against pneumonia do not provide protection against the new coronavirus. To date, there is no specific medi-
Stigma can have negative effects on emotional and mental health, in turn producing more stress for those groups. Learning the facts of COVID19 and sharing the proper information can aid in reducing stigma. Who do I contact with questions? Call a regular healthcare provider if you have COVID-19 symptoms before going to a medical facility. Call the NJ COVID-19 & Poison Center 24/7 Public Hotline at (800) 962-1253 or (800) 222-1222 for general questions or visit nj.gov/health. For general information, dial 211 or text your zip code to 898-211. For alerts and updates, text NJCOVID to 898-211. If you’re feeling anxiety and worry related to the novel coronavirus, New Jerseyans can call 866-202-HELP (4357) for free, confidential support from NJ Mental Health Cares, the state’s behavioral health information and referral service. NJ Mental Health Cares will be answered from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. seven days a week by live trained specialists.

cine recommended to prevent or treat the new coronavirus. However, if sick, patients should contact a healthcare provider to discuss symptoms and decide on a path of treatment; either at-home care and isolation or hospitalization. How to reduce stigma surrounding COVID-19? One of the side effects of the global coronavirus pandemic has been the social stigma placed on certain people, places and things. Fear and anxiety about the coronavirus have highlighted discrimination in association with the illness. COVID-19 in some cases has been associated with a particular population and nationality, despite not everyone in that population or from that region being at risk of the disease. Some groups who may be experiencing stigma include people of Asian descent, people who have traveled, emergency responders or healthcare professionals. Those stigmatized may be subjected to social avoidance or rejection, denials of healthcare, education, housing or employment or physical violence.
The spread of the illness may be possible before showing symptoms.

VOLUNTEERS cont. from Page 1 going to come, because they are worried or have someone at home who is sick or are a doctor or nurse working overtime.” Potential volunteers include healthcare professionals and students in the healthcare professions, as well as nonmedical personnel to serve as administrators, clerks, receptionists, or translators, for situations like sheltering or sorting out people in triage where some people may not understand English. To join the MRC, first go to njlmn. njlincs.net and create an NJLMN account by clicking on the “Create Account” link. Once you have created an NJLMN account, click on “My Account” (located under the blue bar) and then click on “Become an MRC Volunteer” and complete the MRC application. Then click on “Submit” at the bottom of the page. Mendelsohn became a public health nurse for Mercer County about 13 years ago and was asked to be the MRC coordinator after its creation. “MRC is here for public health emergencies like this,” she says, referring to the COVID-19 virus. A specific motivation for MRC’s creation, she says, was fear of another anthrax threat. “If we had to open a POD (point of distribution) to be able to hand out prophylactic medications to the general public, we would need hundreds
and hundreds of volunteers,” Mendelsohn says. The Mercer County Division of Public Health has plans in place for many types of emergencies, Mendelsohn explains, and MRC volunteers are invited to help out when they enact these plans as if they were real emergencies. “We have plans for a site, who would staff it and how it would work,” she says. “We have to exercise it to make sure it works, and sometimes we find we have to tweak it a little bit.” Grupper has also participated in a sheltering exercise at the CURE Insurance Arena, an active shooter exercise in Hunterdon County, and some plane disaster exercises at the Trenton-Mercer Airport, where people would need to be triaged before being sent to a medical facility. During non-emergencies, MRC volunteers help sign in people at health fairs and rabies clinics and staff tables providing information on emergency preparedness, tick-borne diseases, flu and flu vaccines. “There is such a need for public health information, and to be able to
have people who can answer questions and even hand it out is such a big service,” Mendelsohn says, noting that local health departments have limited staff. The Mercer County MRC provides its volunteers with eight different trainings of two to three hours each, and on March 17 did one on the coronavirus. Volunteers also have the chance to participate in emergency preparedness exercises and or teach in their areas of expertise. Grupper came to MRC via a friend who brought him to a shelter management class offered jointly at the Dempster Fire Training Center by MRC and the American Red Cross. The class taught him how to manage an emergency shelter for people who are not able to stay in their homes. He decided to go ahead and join the MRC because he had lots of administrative experience, some of it in a medical setting. During Hurricane Sandy, Grupper had a chance to use some of the skills he had developed by running a comfort station on a shift in Western Mercer County and also helping
‘MRC is here for public health emergencies like this.’ –Stephanie Mendelsohn
at Trenton’s Sovereign Bank Arena when people from Atlantic City were sheltered there before being moved to Rutgers University. “It was chaos,” he recalls. “A whole bunch of people that didn’t want to be there. We were separating them and trying to keep them calm until we knew what was the next step.” “I look at us not as first responders, but as one-and-a-half responders. In case of a disaster or an emergency, the first responders are going to be overloaded; in many places we are there to back them up. I look at us as a staff multiplier,” Grupper says. Grupper’s focus at MRC today is on personal and family preparations for a disaster or emergency, for example, what provisions you would need to shelter in place for two weeks or more. “I am prepared to teach a class in the larger community if required,” he says. For Andrea Webb, a registered nurse from East Windsor, her introduction to MRC came via a piece of mail whose envelope sported the words, “Do you want to be a local hero?” After reading inside about the MRC, she realized this was something she had always wanted to do as different disasters hit our country. “I’ve always wanted to volunteer as a registered nurse, put things in order, pitch in in an emergency, but unless you belong to an organization, you can’t just go to the site of an emergency and pitch in. I really felt

as though I needed to give back to the community, and this was a perfect match,” Webb says. “Everybody is there for the same thing—they want to volunteer and give of themselves, and different people have different niches they love,” Webb says. Dog lovers might volunteer at a rabies clinic, and longterm volunteers might lead trainings because they enjoy interacting with other volunteers. Webb and her husband, who is legally blind and not a medical professional, became volunteers two years ago. They’ve done a lot of training, and in an emergency she expects that her husband might answer phones at a telephone bank, whereas she might be assigned to take vital signs and blood pressure, administer medications, and talk to people in crisis. Princeton resident Dr. Charles McHugh, who is board certified in emergency medicine, with a sub-concentration in hyperbaric medicine, a treatment for burns, thinks he likely heard about the MRC about a decade ago from one of the paramedics who regularly visited his emergency room. Because one of his fields of specialty and instruction in the military was CBRNE (Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear, and Explosive) materials, a required module for MRC volunteers, Mendelsohn asked him to teach this class once or twice a year. A few years ago the chief of police
and sheriff requested that McHugh come out when an envelope received at Princeton’s town hall looked suspicious and triggered an emergency response (although it turned out to be benign). He has also been the standby medic on the scene where MRC help had been requested at large gatherings. So far he has just had to do a little first aid. “Fortunately, except for a few BandAids, I haven’t had to do anything drastic,” McHugh says. Mendelsohn is a native of Union, where her mother was a beautician and her father, an immigrant from Ukraine, was a cabinetmaker. A first generation college student, Mendelsohn remembers wanting to be a nurse since she was a little girl, because she always liked helping people. After moving to Pennington in 1995, her first job was at the Hopewell Township Health Department, and in 2005 she moved to the Mercer County Division of Public Health. She says she loves being a public health nurse, going out in the community and trying to educate
people to prevent diseases like hypertension and diabetes and to break the cycle of communicable diseases like coronaviruses. Grupper grew up in Schenectady, New York, where his father was a retail merchant with his own business, and his mother an administrator in public welfare. He moved to East Windsor from Fort Monmouth in 1966 to work for RCA. He was part of the Reserve Officer Training Corps in college, where he studied business and joined the military in 1948, spending two years in active duty in Germany. When he returned to the States, he continued in the Army Reserve, working in civil affairs, and as a civilian was a contract manager, who did budgeting, costs and scheduling for aerospace, construction and research projects. Webb moved around quite a bit as a youngster because her father was in the military. Born in Wiltshire, England, she also lived in Hawaii, Kentucky, Ohio, and New York, but has been in New Jersey since the late

1970s. Webb worked for Mobil Oil for 17 years in mid-management, selling fuel for ships and airlines; for an insurance company; in a hospital intensive care unit; in the Vroom Building, a maximum security psychiatric hospital in Trenton; and as an administrator for an assisted living in Tinton Falls and a medical daycare in Princeton. McHugh was born and raised in Princeton, where his mother taught second grade for 30-something years. His father was a carpenter. Now retired from hospital work, McHugh has a small private practice and spends five days a month in San Antonio, Texas, teaching for the army, where he is a retired colonel. Looking to the current health crisis around the coronavirus, Webb says, “People are in a panic right now. Things are happening all over the place, and information and instructions are changing from minute to minute. A catastrophe like this is one of the reasons I joined the MRC, so I could go out into the community and still protect myself.” Volunteering for the Mercer MRC, she says, is not only a wonderful opportunity to do things for the common good, but it also helps the underserved populations by teaching them how to avoid communicable diseases.” That’s why she’s trying to recruit other people, including certified nursing assistants. “We need every pair of hands we can get,” Webb said.

ROTHMAN ORTHOPAEDICS SURGEON SPECIALIZING IN RARE BONE AND SOFT TISSUE CANCERS TO LEAD CAPITAL HEALTH’S SARCOMA AND ORTHOPAEDIC ONCOLOGY PROGRAM The Region’s Only Program for Bone and Soft Tissue Cancers DR. JOHN ABRAHAM, an internationally recognized orthopaedic oncology surgeon, now offers advanced treatment options for rare bone and soft tissue cancers at Capital Health Cancer Center. As part of Capital Health’s ongoing partnership with Rothman Orthopaedic Institute, Dr. Abraham, founder of the Orthopaedic Oncology Service at Rothman Orthopaedics, now offers orthopaedic oncology services at Capital Health Medical Center – Hopewell. Dr. Abraham has 15 years of experience in dealing with bone and soft tissue sarcomas and metastatic cancer to the skeleton and has served as chief of Rothman’s Orthopaedic Oncology Service for nearly 10 years. “As we continue to expand our Cancer Center to provide care for a broader range of patients, it is exciting to partner with a specialized surgeon like Dr. Abraham,” said Dr. Cataldo Doria, medical director of Capital Health Cancer Center. “As one of the nation’s leading orthopaedic oncologists, he brings significant experience and extensive training from some of the most prestigious institutions in the country right here to our community so our patients can receive the best possible care closer to home.” Through its partnership with Rothman Orthopaedics, Capital Health now offers advanced surgical services, including limbsparing techniques and bone/joint prostheses for bone sarcoma, complete surgical removal for soft tissue sarcoma and plastic/ reconstructive options, minimally invasive prophylactic fixation (insertion of metal into the affected bone to strengthen it and prevent breaks), joint revision (replacement of joints that have failed as the result of cancer or due to significant bone loss), and fracture repair using metal pins, rods, screws, or plates to hold the damaged bone in place. In addition to his expertise in managing sarcoma, Dr. Abraham deals with metastatic cancer to the bone. Cancer that starts in the breast, prostate, lung, kidney, or other sites can often spread to the bones. This can cause pain at first, but when a tumor gets large enough it can cause debilitating breaks called pathologic fractures
and other complications. Dr. Abraham now provides a range of advanced surgical services for patients in the Mercer/Bucks County region who are living with bone and soft tissue cancer. “Cancers that start in tissue such as bone, cartilage, muscle, nerves, and fat require very specialized care,” said Dr. Abraham. “I’m excited to collaborate with the multidisciplinary team at Capital Health Cancer Center and offer the region’s only Sarcoma Oncology program to treat these rare and potentially devastating tumors.” Dr. Abraham graduated magna cum laude from Harvard University and graduated with high honors from Yale School of Medicine, where he received the prestigious Nicholas Giarman Award for Cancer Research. He then returned to Harvard to complete an orthopaedic surgery residency, where he also completed his orthopaedic oncology fellowship based at Massachusetts General Hospital and Children’s Hospital Boston. Dr. Abraham was then elected to the faculty of the Dana Farber Cancer Center, one of the leading sarcoma centers in the world, where he served as their primary orthopaedic oncologist for five years. During this time, he was also a member of the arthroplasty service at the Brigham and Women’s Hospital of Harvard Medical School in Boston, and developed significant expertise in joint replacement procedures and advanced revision procedures for failed hip and knee replacements. Dr. Abraham has also served as the director of the Jefferson Musculoskeletal Oncology Center at the Kimmel Cancer Center and was an associate professor of Orthopaedic Surgery and Radiation Oncology at Thomas Jefferson University. Dr. Abraham has been named a “Top Doctor” in Philadelphia for 10 years and has been named as a “Best Doctor in America” by Best Doctors. Dr. Abraham sees patients in Blue Bell, PA and Newtown, PA.

CAPITAL HEALTH SELECTED AS SITE FOR STATEWIDE VIOLENCE INTERVENTION PROGRAM One of Nine in New Jersey and the Only Hospital in Mercer and Burlington County Region to Receive Grant Funding As part of a statewide effort to combat violence as a public health crisis in our community, Capital Health has been selected as the only hospital in the Mercer and Burlington County region, and one of nine in New Jersey, to be a host site for the New Jersey Hospital-Based Violence Intervention Program (NJHVIP). The program aims to connect hospitals and medical facilities with existing community organizations that provide victim assistance and work to reduce violence. Governor Phil Murphy, Attorney General Gurbir S. Grewal, and former Congresswoman Gabby Giffords announced the grant winners at the Mary Bethune Center in Jersey City, NJ on January 29. “Hospital-based violence intervention programs (HVIPs) are proven to help reduce repeat injury, and reaching victims of violence at the time of crisis is the key to their success,” said Al Maghazehe, president and CEO of Capital Health. “With medical treatment and recovery as a starting point, Capital Health will help victims connect with our community partners who provide the social services, counseling, and education they need to truly heal and break the cycle of violence that has become so prevalent in some neighborhoods.” Capital Health’s Hospital-Based Violence Intervention Program will be managed through its level II Bristol-Myers Squibb Trauma Center at Capital Health Regional Medical Center in Trenton and the Capital Health Institute for Urban Care. Bristol-Myers Squibb Trauma Center at Capital Health Regional Medical Center offers advanced emergency care for severely injured patients involved in motor vehicle crashes, falls, and assaults with knives, guns, or blunt objects. Capital Health Institute for Urban Care works to advance the health and well-being of Trenton residents by growing and aligning Capital Health’s services with those of its local partner
Present at the news conference that announced grant winners were Kim Watson and Dr. Eric Schwartz from the Capital Institute for Urban Care, Marian Moore and Dr. Dominick Eboli from the BristolMyers Squibb Trauma Center at Capital Health Regional Medical Center, Michelle Ruess from the Trenton Health Team, former congresswoman Gabbie Giffords, and New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy.
organizations. Capital Health’s selection as an NJHVIP site marks an important expansion of the Institute’s mission with a holistic approach to the violence crisis. The NJHVIP program is being launched with $20 million in federal funding from the Victims of Crime Act (VOCA), the largest VOCA award ever in the nation for an HVIP. These funds will support all nine NJHVIP sites for a period of 21 months. Capital Health Institute for Urban Care works with a robust network of community partners in the City of Trenton to improve medical care while overcoming the complex social determinants of health. To learn more about the Institute, visit capitalhealth.org/urbancare.

Cancelled drives leave blood banks facing critical shortage By Nicole Viviano
The recent COVID-19 outbreak has created a critical shortage in blood supply that is needed by hospitals and medical facilities for surgery patients, trauma victims and patients suffering from cancer and chronic illnesses. Due to the immense number of blood
drive cancellations at schools and businesses and a low donor turnout, blood banks have been left short-handed. Concerns for social distancing and fear of risking contracting COVID-19 are some of the reasons healthy, eligible donors have not ventured out to give blood. Miller-Keystone Blood Center,

which has a branch in Ewing, and the Central New Jersey branch of the American Red Cross in Princeton have made safety accommodations amid the coronavirus crisis to keep potential donors and staff healthy. At this time, there is no known risk of getting COVID-19 from blood donations or transfusions. These local blood centers stressed that donating is safe and isn’t a “mass gathering.” They urge potential donors to visit their respective online scheduling systems to go through health screening questionnaires and make an appointment. Cancelled blood drives across the country have resulted in approximately 355,000 fewer blood donations, creating a massive dent in supply. MKBC alone has seen almost 65 drives cancelled, totaling 1,800 donations, in the last week. In New Jersey, the Red Cross has suffered the loss of 189 drives, totaling 6,523 donations. Both MKBC and the Red Cross have implemented recommended health procedures to create a safe and effective donor environment. For the Red Cross, donation centers are not accepting walk-ins to abide by social distancing guidelines. Along with their normal safety protocol, they have moved to check staff and donors’ temperatures before
entering a drive to make sure they are healthy, provide hand sanitizer before and during the donation process, space beds by social distancing recommendations and increased the disinfection of surfaces and equipment. “We are also looking at staggering donor appointments further apart to reduce the number of people at a drive at any one time,” communications manager for Red Cross Blood Services in New Jersey Alana Mauger said. “These mitigation measures will help ensure staff and donor safety in reducing contact with those who may potentially have this, or any, respiratory infection.” The Red Cross stresses that donors schedule their appointments ahead of time and if none are currently available to schedule one for a later date, as blood supply will undoubtedly still be needed. With schools, colleges and businesses closed, many mobile drives were cancelled. Thankfully some organizations like in New Jersey have permission to host blood drives, even though regular business is still closed. Lawrence Township manager Kevin Nerwinski, in a Facebook post March 24, announced that his municipality would also host a new drive to make up the difference. Lawrence’s blood drive will be held Thursday, April 16

IMPLANT OR Not to be combined with from 8 a.m. until 2 p.m. at Lawrence Road Fire Company on Route 206 in Lawrence Township. MKBC has implemented similar protocols to manage donors safely and efficiently. By keeping donation chairs spaced according to social distancing, pacing the number of donors in a center at one time and disinfecting equipment and surfaces even more than before, MKBC shares that donating is a safe process. They have also encouraged potential donors to complete their health screening questionnaires online to determine if they are eligible to donate at this time. This way the donor has a specific time to arrive and an amount of time that they will be in the center, allowing MKBC to minimize the number of people in the area. “We just ask donors generally, if you’re healthy consider donating,” regional marketing manager for MKBC Holly Yacynych said. “If you’re not feeling well or if you believe you’ve been exposed or at risk, we would ask that you delay your donation.” Additionally, they have expanded their hours of operation at their fixed sites, to accommodate adjusted work schedules. Some of MKBC’s mobile sites are still visiting businesses and even hospitals to allow healthy donors to give blood. “We really want to encourage the
community to come out and donate if they are healthy,” Yacynych said. Potential donors who may have any risk factors of having COVID-19 or have been in contact with someone who has COVID-19 should postpone any donation plans. “We understand that people have concerns right now about all aspects of public health, but want to stress that donating blood is a safe process and people should not hesitate to give,” Mauger said. “Blood drives are not considered ‘mass gatherings’ as these are controlled events with trained staff and appropriate safety measures to protect donors and recipients,” she added. MKBC supplies 29 hospitals in both Pennsylvania and New Jersey, covering 15 counties in Pennsylvania as well as Hunterdon, Warren and Mercer counties in New Jersey.

Windsor Academy is located in Windsor Athletic Center on Clarksville Road. Nothing is lost in translation at the Windsor Academy. The bilingual school immerses children in Mandarin Chinese and English, beginning with preschoolers of two-and-a-half, then in a ground-breaking Kindergarten program. Wrap-Around Kindergarten extends the Kindergarten experience to include language and math as well as enrichment activities that include art, music, sports and drama. The program combines the high standards and rigorous curriculum of China with the creative, hands-on, learning process favored in the US. That same innovation extends to the Windsor Academy’s after school programs for children up to age 13. The entire experience is designed to prepare students to thrive now and in a global future. ‘‘Our curriculum integrates a well-balanced mix of academic, cultural and athletic instruction, with an immersive program of Mandarin and English,” says Helen Bao, the school’s director. Available for full and half day programs, five, four and three days a week, the PreK and Kindergarten curriculum includes English and Chinese language, music, math, and enrichment classes in hip hop, art, basketball, piano and drama. Afterschool programs span Chinese, English writing, math, art, chess, public speaking/theater, dance, Kung Fu, basketball, tennis, ping pong and more. While the majority of students are Chinese or Chinese-American, a number of non-Chinese families in the area find that the immersive linguistic training has numerous benefits. “A number of studies suggest that children can process language from a very young age and that even babies can differentiate between words of different languages,” says Lead Teacher
Kacie Mixon. Children in these classes develop strong cognitive ability, switching seamlessly from one language to another. “This helps to develop focus, vocabulary, the ability to multi-task and a wider perspective,” Ms. Mixon asserts. The children are not only bilingual, but biliterate, happy, confident learners, preparing to take their place in a global, multi-cultural environment. Few schools, public or private, can claim the extensive and impressive recreational facilities provided by the Windsor Athletic Club. Windsor Academy is located in the same spacious, modern facility on Clarksville Road in West Windsor. Students have access to the club’s Olympic-size pool and its basketball and tennis courts which are used for classes throughout the year. The club also has a fully-equipped theater that is used for the Windsor Academy‘s summer theater program. Summer Camp, held from June 22 through September 4, brings an array of activities for kids from twoand-a-half to 15. Recognizing that most families have varied summer schedules, the school allows campers to enroll by the week. “Every school is concerned with health, safety and the security of the premises,” notes Helen Bao. The school can only be entered with a special security code or ID card what much be used at both the main entrance and the doorways separating the school from the Athletic Club area. The challenges posed by the Coronavirus are being met with daily sanitizing of the classrooms and surfaces such as doorknobs, desks and counters. The school day runs from 8:30 to 6:30 and before and after care is available, starting at 6:30 a.m. and ending at 7p.m.

South lacrosse primed for a good season led by Jiang By Justin Feil
In the face of the uncertainty of the spring sports season due to the fear of the spread of coronavirus, Charles Jiang spent time playing wall ball. It’s something that the High School South senior has done a lot of since he took up the game in fifth grade. It fed his passion back then for a new spor and helped him improve rapidly, It also enabled him become the only freshman on the Pirates boys’ lacrosse team four years ago, and put him into a position to be a team leader as an upperclassman. His teammates recognized his dedication by voting him captain. “He was far and away one of the highest,” said South head coach David Henry. “The seniors last year thought he would help the team a lot. He helps me run the offense because he knows the game of lacrosse as well as anyone on the team.” After three years as an assistant in the program, Henry, a South alum, is the new head coach of the Pirates. His assistant is Gabe Marquez, a math teacher at the high school. While Marquez will focus on the defense, Henry is looking to jumpstart an attack that will be built around Jiang. Jiang entered his senior year just four points away from 100 for his career, and only 36 goals away from reaching the century milestone in that category as well. “I’m probably the most experienced guy,” Jiang said. “This season, I’m trying to create a new offense. Our set up and movement patterns were way too spread out last year. They were too tired to create ball movement and offense. I’m trying to work on a different set so everyone can play together.” Jiang and the Pirates were looking forward to this season for a chance to piggyback off last year. South started 2019 slowly with losses in 12 of their first 13 games, but they reeled off wins in four of their next five games. That included a 9-8 win over an 11-5 Jackson Memorial team in the South Jersey Group 3 state tournament first round after a team that had just two seniors saw its young new starters finally adjust to the varsity level. “A lot of the JV players got more comfortable and in the groove,” Jiang said. “And the senior players too. We got more cohesion on the field, especially on the offense. We weren’t able to work the ball well early in the year, and towards the end of the season we were able to be more mindful and less selfish moving the ball.” Now most of that team is back with experience. It showed when the Pirates played in the offseason indoor league. “They seemed more comfortable,” Henry said. “It was a team effort. Last year, it was more individual and iso-
South senior Charles Jiang (right) will be a key leader for the lacrosse team if there is a season this year. lation on offense. This year, the ball movement is better and more fluid. We had a couple 6v6 drills at practice and you can see they know what they’re doing.” Jiang has contributed his experience at the offensive end. He has worked with coaches to develop a newly tooled offense for this season. A week of early practices gave them a chance to put it in before the school was closed due to COVID-19. “It was actually coming together really well,” Jiang said. “In practice, since the new offense requires less off-ball movement it’s easier for the guys to digest and it’s more cohesive and we’re able to move the ball easier.” Jiang is valuable to the Pirates for his ideas, leadership and work ethic. He has been pushing his teammates to practice at a high level in preparation. “He’s a phenomenal shooter,” Henry said. “He’s our best offensive player. He brings intensity. If a drill isn’t going well, he gets on guys.” Jiang didn’t wait for the preseason to get the Pirates going. He has been working out individually to improve his athleticism. In addition to his own lifting and running, he’s organized captain’s practices for the team and hoping the players get intrinsically motivated to improve, especially the younger players that will be left to carry on after his class graduates. “Just working with each other in the offseason, getting them out in the summer and fall, it helps us gain more chemistry,” Jiang said. The Pirates are confident they will be a stronger team because of so much returning. Unlike last year when
it took so long to get everyone accustomed to the speed of the varsity level, this year the Pirates have the chance to start faster and finish stronger. “Our end of the season was a much more positive note,” Henry said. “We’re looking to build off that momentum. One of the blessings in disguise was a lot of our guys got varsity minutes. They’re used to the pace. We have every intention of hitting the ground running and starting off strong and getting off to a winning start. It took us a while to get there last year.”
The Jiang-led offense figures to be more potent with their newly fashioned attack. Most of the defense is back with the biggest graduation loss being Gordon Hesterberg, who made 322 saves last year. Together, the combination of returning offense, midfield and defense could produce a solid record. “Our defense is looking good,” Jiang said. “Being in our zone we’re able to push people outside. Compared to other teams in the CVC, I know a lot of other teams lost a lot of seniors last year so we should be able to compete more with them.” Jiang says he is looking forward to one more scholastic season. He is considering continuing his playing career on the club level in college lacrosse for Tulane University, where he will study business. He has developed steadily over eight years of playing into a versatile attacker. “I started playing in fifth grade,” Jiang recalled. “My friends played so I did. I fell in love with the game. In middle school, I played wall ball for hours. That helped me start freshman year. When I got there, Nick Tello and David Mattia, they were right-handed attackmen. They needed a lefty to fill up that spot. “My freshman and sophomore year, I scored almost all my goals left-handed. That helped me become a more versatile player. I played all over the field junior year and I got a good awareness of how to react to different situations.” There’s no blueprint for how to react in the face of the uncertainty surrounding whether his senior year will be played, but Charles Jiang continues to work out, play wall ball and hope he has one more chance to play with WW-P South this spring.

Runner pushes herself to the limit in marathon challenge By Madeleine Maccar
Two years ago, Keri Mandell didn’t know how to swim. So the now-38-year-old West Windsor resident learned how any dedicated fitness enthusiast would: She put herself through Ironman Lake Placid, a demanding, iconic triathlon where one-third of the event has participants plunging into the chilly depths of an Adirondack Mountains lake and then swim for a third of a mile. “Prior to completing Ironman, I didn’t know how to swim, so signing up was kind of a way to force myself to really get uncomfortable and start to learn,” Mandell says. “I didn’t like getting my head wet, and I didn’t like being underwater, so it took me a long time to really get comfortable. But at the end of Ironman, I felt invincible, like I could do anything, because I was that deathly afraid of the water.” The marathon runner, triathlete and owner of the emPower Yoga studio in Ewing describes herself as “so Type A” that she is already training for her third summertime test of swimming, biking and running her way through a two-time Winter Olympic village with notoriously unpredictable weather conditions—especially now that she’s had a chance to recover from a February that had her running on seven continents in seven days. Mandell recently completed the World Marathon Challenge, which took the international coterie of 30 runners who completed the 186-hour marathon around the globe in a week. With the event having them run a standard 42.2 km. marathon in all seven continents—Cape Town, South Africa; Novo, Antarctica; Perth, Australia; Dubai, United Arab Emirates; Madrid, Spain; Fortaleza, Brazil; and Miami, Florida—the challenge pitted them against climate and terrain so vastly differing that Lake Placid’s 40-degree temperature swings and wildly vacillating climate pales in comparison. “At Ironman, we’d have hail and it was literally 30 degrees, and then toward the end of the run, it was in the 70s and sunny, which is similar to how it happened on The Seven,” she recalls. “We went from extreme temperatures: Antarctica ended up being -20, -30 degrees [Fahrenheit] with 70 MPH winds. I had frostbite on two toes and a finger. Then we went to Brazil and that was like 90 degrees with 80-percent humidity.” Mandell says that she first heard of the worldwide marathon when she started running seven or eight years ago and “always laughed it off.” As time went on, the idea of running across the world in seven days became less of an impossible notion and more of a goal until she knew she just had to go for it. “I’m somebody who just likes to up the ante so I’m always looking for new ways to challenge myself,” says
West Windsor resident Keri Mandell, who ran seven marathons in seven days on seven continents, is pictured before running the 2015 New York City Marathon. Mandell. “The World Marathon Challenge came up again and again on my radar, and I knew it would be my next challenge.” So she ramped up her training game, set her sights on a feat that only a few hundred other marathoners have accomplished—and partnered with a cause close to her heart to ensure that her efforts honored a few loved ones while making a difference to a greater good. “I wanted to do it for something bigger than myself, I didn’t want it to just be about me and this race: I wanted to run it for a cause, run it for a reason,” Mandell says. “Having lost my dad and stepmom to cancer and a good friend of mine, a mentor, I wanted to run to raise awareness for the American Cancer Society. In June 2019, they were like, ‘Let’s do this, we’ll partner up with you and help you achieve your goals.’ It was incredible.” After months of prep and training, Mandell headed for the event that would have her running 184 miles over 168 hours with 35 other marathon hopefuls, starting in South Africa. While Mandell says that she never questioned her decision to take on a seven-day worldwide marathon or her determination to finish it, she says that everyone’s resolve took a hit during their time in the Antarctic. “Antarctica was so hard, way harder than anyone expected: We were told that it would be like running outside in the Northeast, but the weather conditions were so bad with gale-force winds’ snowdrifts, you had snow up to your knees,” says Mandell. “I definitely questioned my sanity in Antarctica, and I’ll never complain about being cold again after that.” But as difficult as the experience was, it drew the group together like nothing else could. “Antarctica really bonded the women: It was so cold and some of them were so scared and it was like, ‘we’re here, we came all this way,
we’re here to do something, we’re in this together, we’re going to help each other,’” Mandell says, adding that the solidarity went even further. “A couple of us linked arms for body heat creating a shield so we would take turns being behind so we weren’t in the wind for so long” she says. “Everyone was just so kind and helpful, and we really became a family over the week.” Mandell says that she averaged about five hours per marathon; however, it took her nearly eight hours to complete the track in sub-zero Novo— and that while nobody was pleased with their performance, it was the fuel everyone needed for a group rallying cry at the next stop in Australia. “My mantra in Antarctica was, ‘You will not break me,’” she says. “Everybody was so pissed about Antarctica that we hit Perth, and we were running. Everyone hit Perth hard.” By the time the week wrapped up in Miami, Mandell was feeling the ravages of up-and-down air travel paired with inadequate recovery time and averaging less than two hours of sleep a night. More than a month later, she’s still dealing with swollen feet and legs, fluid buildup in her shins and ankles, and a foot so sensitive to pressure that she wore a boot for a while. But it pushed her to new limits and encouraged her to keep challenging
the boundaries of her comfort zone. “I had to dig really deep and get uncomfortable and find my edge, and I was able to do it and see truly what I’m capable of,” Mandell says. “It pushed me to a limit that I’ve never experienced before. The fatigue, the tiredness in Antarctica, the cold, the extreme temperatures—I found a new level, another drive, the next speed.” It wasn’t just the physical training and support of her family at home and globe-trotting fellow marathoners that kept her going, though; the key, Mandell says, is mental toughness. “The biggest part of training is developing that mental strength because your mind gives up way before your body every will,” she says. “Whether you believe you can or believe you can’t, you’re right.” After all, she says, pushing herself harder and holding herself accountable is the example she wants to set for her students at emPower Yoga to encourage them to explore their own potential. “My favorite quote is ‘Life begins at the end of your comfort zone’—I have it on the wall in my yoga studio and it’s something that I talk about with my students all the time,” Mandell says. “I’m always looking for ways to challenge myself and practice what I preach. How can I ask others to do what I wouldn’t do?”

Zovich hopes to carry wrestling success into lacrosse season By Justin Feil
It doesn’t take Tommy Zovich long to transition from wrestling into lacrosse. The High School North junior has just about the perfect crossover combination of sports. In the winter, he competed at 170 pounds for the Knights’ wrestling team. He transitioned smoothly then into the spring where he takes faceoffs for the WW-P North boys lacrosse team. “They both play pretty hand in hand with each other,” Zovich said. “That doesn’t hurt.” Faceoffs are almost like wrestling matches. At the start of each quarter and after any goal, Zovich lines up one-on-one to essentially wrestle for the ball with his stick. “For me, it’s the sense of body, shifting weight, knowing where to put yourself, when to push and when to pull back,” Zovich said. “Wrestling helps with building strength and knowing where to put that strength.” His wrestling background helped earn him a spot in lacrosse games as a freshman. With some more experienced members of the team out, he had the opportunity to take some faceoffs. “I decided to try it,” Zovich recalled. “It turned out I was pretty good at it. Then sophomore year, I stepped up
North lacrosse player Tommy Zovich applies the skills he learns from wrestling and lacrosse while playing the other sport. again. I think I was right under 50 percent. Being put in that role, I feel like you need to do it if the team needs it.” Zovich hopes to be back to take faceoffs again this spring if and when
the season begins. He felt the benefits of lacrosse in his wrestling as well. “I think it plays almost the same way with the sense of body,” Zovich said. “It almost helps the same way
with faceoffs to wrestling. When I was in wrestling season, I like to do a lot of throws and sweeps, and coming into faceoffs and wrestling you need to know if you move this way, your momentum shifts this way. I think it helps me there.” Zovich comes off his finest wrestling season individually and teamwise. After a dozen wins as a sophomore for a Knights wrestling team that won two matches, Zovich went 24-8 and reached the Region 5 tournament for the first time while WW-P North jumped to 7-12 in dual meets. “It’s pretty great,” Zovich said. “Having two wins those first couple years, and bumping up to seven this year was great. We had a lot more kids. It felt like we had a full roster and had people to put in every weight. You get to watch kids in every weight and cheer people on.” The Knights felt better about their potential when they saw an influx of young wrestlers. Evan Pettus, who is a lacrosse assistant coach as well, was named the new wrestling coach late in the fall, and was greeted by enthusiasm and dedication from his growing squad. “This year, we were able to get seven team wins and a couple in county too, which meant a lot for the guys,” Pettus said. “We were successful overall because I had 30 guys in

the room. It was more a thing of filling almost all the weight classes and guys stepping up. Overall, it was an extremely successful team season. And then a couple guys did really well individually as well.” Timothy Glynn and Matt Moore were higher weight wrestlers that enjoyed successful senior seasons to lead the team, and Zovich and freshman 106/113-pounder Justin Musmanno will be the wrestlers returning off the best years with both having 20-plus wins. With just four seniors graduating, and strong numbers expected to come in, the program feels it’s on the rise. “There’s a semi-large freshman class,” Pettus said. “There’s a lot over at Community Middle School doing it so I have the same amount coming next year. And then there’s a seventh grade class that’s big and they’ll be here in two years.” Zovich was thrilled with the jump he was able to make from last year. Most of his improvements came from the work he put in in the offseason – which helped for both of his sports. “I did work out over the summer so I got physically stronger and physically bigger,” Zovich said. “Being in the room and being able to work out more and practice my moves and take different looks at different people now that we have more people helped. Also what helped was being able to talk to a lot of different people and see how they wrestle and get a better feel for the sport as a whole.” With higher participation numbers, the energy was greater in the practice room, and there was more intensity with more Knight wrestlers competing for spots in the starting lineup. “It kept them alert and on their toes,” Pettus said. “They welcomed the competition and they fought for their spot every week. It kept the competition up in the room. It was good competition, healthy competition. They would support whoever won the spot. It was good competition that kept them going.” Zovich proved best at 170. He came in well ahead of where he was a year ago. “He’s in the room and in practice and in matches, he keeps to himself but he works hard,” Pettus said. “During match days, he doesn’t say a word to anybody before his matches. He’s a two-sport guy. I work the weight room in the fall and he’s in there a lot in the summer and fall. “He was able to get a lot stronger in the offseason. That helped him a lot. He’s not the tallest guy in the 170-weight class, but his strength makes up for it. He doesn’t take anything lightly. Even if it’s a fun competition, he goes out to win it. It was a lot
of hard offseason work and he stayed focused.” At the Mercer County Tournament, the Knights were eighth led by Moore who was second at heavyweight and Glynn was third at 195 while Zovich took third at 170. “Tim Glynn is a two-year captain,” Pettus said. “He helped me this entire season to get the guys ready and get the guys in shape and helped me with new drills. He was our leader off the mat. Matt Moore had a pretty successful year last year and this year too. Both of those guys are heavier so we’re unfortunately losing two heavyweights next year. Hopefully we’ll get guys to replace them.” The District 19 tournament gave North’s experienced wrestlers another chance to shine. Glynn placed third to advance to regions and Zovich took second in the district, which was where he was seeded. “First round, I had to make sure I got past,” Zovich said. “Second round, I had a kid from the beginning of the season and it was a close match. Then I got to the finals, and that was one of the calmer matches I had. I knew I’d gotten into regions. I wasn’t thinking about districts at the beginning of the season, so to get to that point was great for me.” By virtue of his second-place district finish, he was able to advance to his first region tournament, where he was seeded 10th. He lost in the first round to Montgomery’s Alex Ipeker to conclude a season that saw him gain experience and confidence. “It was nerve-wracking going to regions,” Zovich said. “I knew had to try my hardest and do my best on the mat. I put it all out there. I wrestled my match through and what happened, happened. “I was satisfied with what I did,” he added. “I couldn’t have even dreamed of doing what I did. I think I kept surprising myself throughout this season.” Tommy Zovich doesn’t want to look too far ahead, but he is hopeful that he can improve again next year on his wrestling success. First, he is hoping for a chance to play lacrosse this spring where he sees a chance to find complementary success with that team. “I think we have big things coming for us,” Zovich said. “We’ve been working out our lines and working out our plays. Just looking out over the team, it’s not necessarily all upperclassmen, we have other people stepping up in roles. “We have new things we’re working on. I think it’s a different look from last year and the practices are starting to look a little different too. It should be good.”
Zovich comes off his finest wrestling season individually and team-wise.
The Buddy Bencch h
The Kids at St. Bartholomew C hurch Preschool in Trenton will have a new way to make friends It’s called the Buddy Bench. Lakhi Raju, an 8th grader from WW-P Community Middle school, created the buddy bench as part of her Girl Scouts Silver Award Project. Lakhi built the Buddy Bench so when the kids feel lonely and they don’t have anyone to play with, they can sit on the bench and it would be a signal to other kids who will come and play with them. This is all about developing kindness and letting the kids know that there is always someone out there who can become your friend and make sure no kid is being left out. Pamela Cipriano, The director of The Children’s Home Society of NJ who worked with Lakhi as her mentor said, “The concept of a Buddy Bench which I think is a great idea to foster friendship on the playground. Spreading the message of inclusion and kindness goes a long way…sending the message that everyone is WELCOME to sit here will surely bring a SMILE to many faces.”

WW-P Soccer Association: A chance for kids to work with pro trainers Parents of soccer enthusiasts aged 7 to 14 need to mark their calendars now for the West Windsor-Plainsboro Soccer Association (WWPSA) weeklong summer soccer camps available throughout the summer beginning June 29, 2020. Experienced soccer coaches will drill boys and girls in the skills necessary to play competitively in any soccer league. “This is a chance to have professional trainers work with you on soccer. Our goal in the club to develop soccer skills for players at all skill levels. We have a great coaching staff for our summer camps who provide instruction with a goal of increasing skills through a variety of teaching techniques. It is an opportunity for camp participants to improve their skills — their technical and tactical soccer skills — through a variety of exercises,” said Brent Nielsen, WWPSA board member. Full day camps run from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. with a break mid-day for lunch and to swim at the community pool. Half day camps run from 9:00 a.m. to noon. “All of our activities and games are structured for learning and fun,” Nielsen said. “Campers will play a
game at the end of each day to solidify skills learned and engage in friendly competition.” Campers learn and reinforce fundamental soccer skills of dribbling and mastery of the soccer ball with emphasis on agility, passing, receiving, and turning. Later in the week more advanced skills of attacking play, scoring, defensive moves and preventing scoring are emphasized. The importance of teamwork is emphasized along with core exercises and personal fitness. WWSPA’s goal is to praovide youth and adults the opportunity to play instructional and competitive soccer at the highest level commensurate with their ability, potential, and interest. In that light, WWPSA offers spring and fall soccer programs for pre-K through 12th grade students. Spring programs will run from April 4, 2020, to until May 30, 2020. Information about spring and fall programs can be found on the WWPSA website, adding additional opportunities for local youth.

A Guide to Our Virtual Kitchen & Bath Design Process As we are all working from home together, this may be good time to virtually plan out your upcoming kitchen or bath projects. You’d be surprised how much you can accomplish working remotely with one of our design professionals. Start with a Project “To Do” List You’ve been watching the home improvement shows, looking at magazines and doing some research online. You may even have put together an inspiration file of all the things you would love to have in your new kitchen or bathroom. Where do you go from here? First, make a list of what to change in your kitchen or bath area. Following is a brief checklist of what to consider: Are you... • Working with a new or existing floor plan? • Adding new appliances, lighting, sinks and faucets? • Changing flooring and if so, will other areas change as well? • Installing new tile in the backsplash or in the bath area? • Taking out the tub or enlarging the shower area? Try to have some idea of cabinetry and countertop choices, even though this is not something you need to finalize before talking with a design professional. What Can Our Design Pros Do For You? Once you’ve done your research, you are ready to complete our brief questionnaire. Upon receiving your information, one of our experienced designers will contact you to discuss your ideas and wishes. Next, a design concept is created for your space and we’ll also give you an estimate range of what your project may cost. We look forward to helping you get started on your project.

30The News | April 2020
Wow! What difference a week, a day, even an hour makes especially in the world of travel! This is an unprecedented event and even Travel Advisors with 30+ years of experience have never seen anything like it. It’s been tough and will continue to be so for the cruise lines, the airlines, the land tour companies and all their support resources. My heart goes out to the ship employees, dock workers, hotel employees, taxi/Uber/Lyft drivers, food service provider. The list is endless and the domino effect will continue for the foreseeable future. Each day the terms and conditions for travel suppliers change as they try to cope with the news and long- term impact. We pray that they can manage to stay in business so we can travel again – but know that will not be the case for all. Big or small they are all trying to cope. I have spent hours, uncompensated, on the phone to cancel reservations, rebook where possible and navigate the changing terms for the best possible outcome for my clients. I am sad their bucket list trips, milestone events, family gatherings, etc are postponed, but I am their advocate working hard to make the financial burden less. And I will continue to be there for my current and future clients. I also worry about our local eateries, the mom-and-pop’s, the family-owned businesses, salon owners, and everyone who works so hard to keep their doors open. An idea I saw recently suggested helping them out by purchasing gift certificates to give away - or for your personal use once they’re allowed to re-open. I am usually a positive person, and I know travel will be back,
but, for now, it’s important for you and yours to stay healthy. This too shall pass - and then you will be ready to explore this great big world once again! Take good care of yourselves and your family. I remain open for business to help you. Contact us at cberla@ cruiseplanners.com or 609.750.0807 when you are ready to set up time to discuss your next memory making vacation. Meanwhile you can visit us on Facebook and do some virtual traveling. At Cruise Planners we specialize in all types of travel (not just cruises). We do not charge any additional fees for our vacation planning, and whether you are looking for a Cruise, an All-Inclusive Resort Vacation, or a European Land Tour, we will provide you with the exceptional service you should expect from a travel agent. Visit us at www.makingvacationmemories. net to register for hot deals delivered directly to your inbox and follow us at www.facebook. com/familycruising. Unlike big online travel sites, Cruise Planners with Caryn and Aron, delivers the personal touch.
