Local Coat Drive Brings Warmth To Organizer And Those In Need

By Cheryl Conway Verona teenager is collecting coats again this year to provide some warmth to those in need as the fall and winter chill creep on through. Verona High School junior, Cianna Winkler, is finishing up her fifth Annual Coat Drive but will continue to collect gently used coats throughout the season. The 2016 coat drive began Oct. 29 and officially ended Dec. 3, but donations are still being accepted. Drop off any size, gently used, winter coats to the First Presbyterian Church in Verona, where Winkler is a member. She asks that the coats be clean and contain no holes. The coats are then given to the Human Needs Food Pantry in Montclair. “As long as people are still donating, we will keep the bins there,” says Winkler’s mom, Beverly Winkler. The 17-year old has been hosting her coat drive since 2011, collecting between 4,000 and 5,000 coats since. She says she averages a collection of 1,000 coats per year. The coat drive coincides with Winkler’s platform for her upcoming competition for Miss America. Her platform is “to help the homeless or anyone who needs help.” Her desire to help others stems from her time as a Girl Scout. “When I was a Daisy I went to the food pantry in Montclair,” says Winkler. The person who worked there made such an impression on her that she knew that helping people, “not just homeless but people who need a helping hand,” was right up her ally. Other drop off points for the coats was located at the Community Center in Verona and Verona Jazzercise. While other drives could have been selected, Winkler ES

specifically put her efforts in collecting coats. “I’ve done food drives,” says Winkler, but “coats are very impressive. I feel people take it for granted. They don’t realize how it can help someone,” especially during a harsh winter. Winkler has collected other items for the homeless over the years such as toiletries for blessing bags for the Citadel in Montclair, a salvation army/shelter. “There’s a lot of homeless that don’t declare themselves to social services,” explains Beverly. “What amazed Cianna [is that] within a mile and a half to two miles to our home, there are so many people in need. Coats are expensive; around here people don’t even wear coats.” But some people need that coat, those who are outside. “Our folks may not go into Newark; this was more localized.” Winkler adds, “it’s more of our community helping each other out.” Winkler accepts hats, gloves and scarves as well to donate. She organized the coat drive through her church, which agreed to be one of the drop off centers. “The number of coats we get are amazing,” says Winkler. “What people drop off, we even get coats with price tags on them. It really does bring a warmth to my heart. Coats are such a simple thing. Donating and sometimes seeing those who get it, it’s so nice. It’s a feeling I would never want it to go away.” Through the church, the Winklers plan to also provide blessing bags for the homeless and they also provide Sunday Suppers, in which money is raised to feed people locally. On Sundays, home cooked meals are delivered to those identified.

While giving has always been in her nature, Winkler uses her service hours toward one of her points as a Miss America contestant. “Service is one of the four points of the Miss America crown,” she says. “The other three are scholarship, style and success. These are critical factors in the judging of Miss America and Miss Americas Outstanding Teen. My next big initiative is to plan and run a fundraiser for the leukemia and Lymphoma Society this winter.” Winkler was selected a few weeks ago by LLS to be a student leader and plans to host a drive to increase awareness of blood cancers which are a leading cause of death of teens, she adds. Details for the fundraiser have not yet been finalized. For the past three years, Winkler has been competing in Miss America pageants, and a total of five years in pageants. Her most recent was the Miss America Gateway held in Hackettstown, in which she won outstanding teen. On Jan. 21, 2017, she will compete against 20 other teen continued on page 2

With Winter Settling, Tips Prepare For Any Storm

By Henry M. Holden n recent years, some of the most damaging storms strike long before the first day of winter. Think Hurricane Sandy in October 2012. And the crippling snowstorms in the waning days of winter such as March 12-14, 1993 when a Category five snowstorm which was dubbed the “Storm of the Century. Snow blanketed more than half of New Jersey, with 20 to 30 inches in the far northern sections of the state. The National Weather Service reported the January 2016 blizzard dumped 33 inches in Morris Plains. Whether it’s a snowstorm or a hurricane, being prepared to deal with the storm safely both before, during and its aftermath is strongly suggested. While the kids may love having a day or more off from school, for adults winter weather means a sometimes-chaotic commute to or from work, or the stress of preparing for the storm. The Morris County Office of Emergency Management (OEM) has put together a preparedness list of winter weather tips.

Before the storm hits, prepare the home. Create a checklist. Include flashlights, fresh batteries, a first aid kit, enough prescription medications to last a week, food that doesn’t need heating, a battery-operated radio, and cellphones with extra chargers. In addition to medication, have a supply of one gallon of water, per person, for a maximum of three days. Don’t forget the four-legged family members. Make sure they have four or five days of food and water. OEM Director Jeff Paul said when temperatures go below freezing, 32 degrees, snow and ice are a real possibility. One of the most important things to do especially for the elderly and those with health issues is to stay inside. This includes pets. Paul says to avoid charcoal-burning devices, kerosene and other space heaters. These devices produce carbon monoxide, a silent killer that can happen without any obvious symptoms. For those using these heaters, make sure to have carbon monoxide alarms

installed in the home; one near the furnace, one near the bedrooms and one in the rooms with a space heater. Replace the batteries in them at least once a year. Pick the same day every year, say Halloween. Stay warm by wearing layers of loose-fitting, lightweight, warm clothes. If a power outage lasts overnight or into the later hours, use extra blankets and close all doors to seal the heat into one area of the home. Prevent freezing pipes. Freezing temperatures can cause major issues to the pipes in a home. Keep cabinet doors open to allow heat to get to uninsulated pipes under sinks and appliances on exterior walls. Everyone in the household should know how to shut off the water valves; if a pipe does burst, this could save a lot of money in the long run. Any outside faucets should have an inside drain function to drain the water from the pipe. If not, buy a faucet bonnet which will cover the faucet and insulate it. Prepare the vehicle. Having a prepared ve-

hicle for the winter months is as important as home preparation. In the event of becoming stuck in a blizzard or white out conditions, or stranded on a back road, there are things that can be done. Pack a bag to keep in the trunk with warm clothes. In addition to clothes, keep the gas tank as close to full as possible, will keep the fuel line from freezing. If stranded and must sit out the storm, carry two empty coffee cans, several candles, and a blanket. The lighted candles placed in the coffee cans will keep the inside air temperature just above freezing. Wrap up in a blanket and stay with the vehicle. One could easily get disoriented in the storm and wind up freezing

The blizzard of January 20, 2005, was a three-day storm that affected large areas of New Jersey. Much of the snow was cleared from the roads by the evening of January 24, leaving dangerous snow piles on roadways and corners 10 feet high in some places. Photo by Henry M. Holden.

to death. There will be road crews out even before the snows stop. Paul’s team also suggests taking the car for a full inspection. For example, have the tires checked. If tire treads are slowly wearing away, paying the price for new tires will

be better than replacing a vehicle after an accident. Common replacements before winter should include windshield wipers, oil, fluids and air filters. Keep a shovel, snow melt and an ice scraper in the vehicle as ice can be uncontinued on page 6

Copies of “The Old Asylum And Other Stories” will be on sale for $20 and will be available for signing. Having spent a significant portion of his youth playing in the forsaken hospitals atop

Second Mountain, Wheeler’s explorations of the abandoned institutions directly influenced the tales in his new book published Sagging Meniscus Press of Montclair. The stories are fiction, set against the backdrop of The Old Asylum, Wheeler’s imagined combination of the Overbrook Mental Hospital and the abandoned Tuberculosis Sanatorium that once stood on the Hilltop property in Essex County. Wheeler’s presentation will touch upon the history of both hospitals and their subsequent demolition. The event is free, open to the public, and will begin at 6:30 p.m.

MPAC To Offer Performing Arts Program For Children With Autism

ayo Performing Arts Center (MPAC) is proud to announce that Elaine Hall and her pioneer organization, The Miracle Project, will bring a new course curriculum to children with autism spectrum disorders and other special needs in 2017. As a Miracle Project provider, MPAC will offer this unique program for the first time anywhere in New Jersey, utilizing music, dance and theatre to unlock the creativity, personalities, and great potential of children. This program builds on MPAC’s commitment to serve all members of the community, including children with autism and other special needs, by combining a traditional inclusion-based arts education program with the use of student aides and peers in the classroom. The Miracle Project is an evidenced-based, award-winning program that uses music, dance and theatre to bring out the best of children with autism and their typically developing peers. Through a method called Inclusion from WithIn (I Win) and the “Seven Keys to Unlock Autism,” the program addresses the core challenges of autism – communication, behavior and socialization. Its goal is to provide children with tools to build communication, social skills, and self-esteem through inclusive theater, and to become part of a performing arts community. “We are thrilled to bring our Miracle Project training to MPAC,” said Elaine Hall, founder and artistic director of The Miracle Project. “The need for this program is profound. The rate of New Jersey children diagnosed with autism is much higher than the national average. MPAC

and The Miracle Project are so aligned in the way we approach the arts that it was such a natural fit.” The Miracle Project’s arrival at MPAC comes at a time when a staggering 2.5 percent of children in the state are diagnosed with autism, considerably higher than the national average of 1.5 percent. Autism spectrum disorders are characterized by social-interaction difficulties, communication challenges and a tendency to engage in repetitive behaviors. Symptoms and their severity vary widely across these three core areas. In preparation for the launch of the two session course offering beginning in January 2017, MPAC educators will train directly with Hall and her team this December in the methods that her groundbreaking, West Coast-based program has developed for the past 12 years. Hall will give a free public lecture on Mon., Dec. 12 at 7 p.m. at the MPAC. The lecture, titled Elaine Hall and Inclusion from WithIn and The Seven Keys to Unlock Autism, will discuss how the program uses performing arts to provide children on the autism spectrum with tools to build communication, social skills and self-esteem through inclusive theater, and how she plans to implement that program at MPAC. Added Hall, “Our training programs understand the specific sensory and emotional needs of children with autism. Imparting this training to the MPAC educators will enable them to not just assist with intervention techniques, but ultimately provide the right theatrical foundation for future theatre, film and television professionals in a

CCM Offers Free Grant Workshops

way that encourages belonging to a theatrical community.” “Establishing The Miracle Project at MPAC is a milestone for our arts education program and an amazing opportunity for us to expand our offerings to serve children of all needs,” said Cathy Roy, MPAC education director. “We’re looking forward to training with Elaine Hall and becoming certified as the only Miracle Project provider in the state of New Jersey where 1 in 41 children are affected by autism. There is a great need here for a program like this and we are very honored to be a part of it. The program is aligned with our philosophy of building self-esteem and acceptance through the use of collaboration and artistic expression.” The spring 2017 semester will offer two course opportunities. One course will be offered to 10 students with autism, ages nine through 15, who require individual aides and 10 neuro-typical “peer mentor” students who volunteer to undergo the program alongside their peers with autism.

The second course will feature 10 students with autism, ages nine through 15, who do not require individual aides, along with 10 neuro-typical students. Each course runs 22 weeks, and culminates in an openclass presentation. The concept of pairing students with autism with others who do not allows the students with autism to learn from their neuro-typical peers, engendering social skills and invaluable friendships. “MPAC is committed to making the performing arts accessible to all members of our community without any barriers,” said Allison Larena, President and CEO, Mayo Performing Arts Center. “The launch of The Miracle Project program at MPAC significantly enhances our offerings for children on the autism spectrum and with other disabilities through a revolutionary and specialized theatre training program.” For more information on The Miracle Project at MPAC, go to http://www. mayoarts.org/education/the-miracle-project.

Donations Needed To Support Veteran’s Outreach Initiative At Centenary University

n conjunction with the Student Veteran’s Organization (SVO) and the student-based Psychology and Lions Clubs, the Office of Veteran Services at Centenary University is taking part in a Veteran’s Outreach initiative for the Fall 2016 semester. The collaboration effort will include a donations drive to benefit veterans at the VA Hospital, Lyons. The Veteran’s Outreach project will be accepting donations of the following from now until Dec. 15: new men and women’s slipper socks, new crossword/word search/ Sudoku books, boxed K-cup coffee pods and 2017 wall calendars. “We have planned this activity with the hope that the Centenary community will unite to honor, support, and remember the veterans in our lives,” says Margie Pavlichko, director of Veterans Services at the University. The Office of Veteran Services at Centenary University provides valuable services and resources to student veterans, veteran dependents, active military, and re-

servists in the Centenary community. The office is dedicated to assisting veterans in navigating internal and external systems, obtaining educational goals, developing initiatives, and helping to facilitate a seamless transition to the academic arena and successful integration to the campus community. In honor of Veteran’s Day on Nov. 11, the Office of Veteran Services saw it fitting to engage the Centenary community in various activities to honor those who have served or currently serve. Contact Margie Pavlichko at (908) 8521500, ext. 2318 or e-mail pavlichkom@ centenaryuniversity.edu to make arrangements to drop off donations. In addition, donations can be left with the Centenary Stage Company’s box office at the David and Carol Lackland Center in Hackettstown. Drop off boxes will also be left outside of the Sitnik and Black Box theaters when performances are in session. In addition to the donation drive, “The Honor Tree” made its fourth annual in the David and Carol Lackland Center to rec-

ognize the valor, courage and sacrifice of those who served or are currently serving. The tree stood outside of the cafeteria from Nov. 7 through Nov.11, and is permanently displayed in the Veteran’s Resource Center on the third floor of the Ferry Building. The Honor Tree is decorated with more than 300 stars that are placed on the tree by students, staff, faculty, administrators, and community visitors. This special tree is available year-round to hang a color-coded star in support of our troops and to honor family, friends, colleagues, alumni, and those in the greater Centenary community who have served. Another way the Office of Veteran Services invited the Centenary community to honor our country’s veterans is through a project called The Gratitude Journal, which was also available outside the cafeteria from Nov. 7 to Nov. 11 for the campus community to write a message of thanks to Centenary student veterans and service men and women around the world.
