Performance On Football Field Reaches An All Time High At MOHS olds, Mt. Olive School District superintendent of schools. The “roof is what makes it so unique,” he says, with its sound-shell that magnifies, as well as accommodations to handicap individuals.

At the pep rally this year, 20 students were in wheelchairs, says Reynolds. The new stadium is equipped with a “special parking place for them; for the first time they were included.” What is also beneficial is the first row is eight feet off the ground.

By Cheryl Conway he new football stadium at Mt. Olive High School is turning some heads- and some ears- for players, fans and visitors this year.

While the ribbon cutting ceremony at the football field facilities was held before the Sept. 8 home game, 95 percent of the project is complete. Sign painters plan to color the backdrop red behind the MOHS Marauder mascot at the back of the bleach-

ers, grass needs planting and more fencing installed around the facility.

The $2.1 million project has been a win, win - not only for the MOHS football team’s season so far- but for the spectators who have been enjoying the safer bleachers, rooftop to keep them dry, concession stand and heated bathrooms.

The new bleachers are by far “one of a kind” for a New Jersey high school, says Dr. Larrie Reyn-

973-330-1958 • 908-465-4202

ers, concession stand and bathrooms make up the final phase of improvements at the MOHS football facility. Work began the first week of June, right after the track season, says Reynolds, when the old bleachers came down and the land was excavated.

A work in progress, the school district has enhanced the facility with new lights and turf during the past few years.

“Every year someone says we need to replace those bleachers,” continued on page 4

Are You Prepared For Cold And Flu Season?

I

t’s that time of year again... the Cold/Flu season is approaching (womp womp)! As the weather gets colder and the wind gets stronger our bodies become more susceptible to colds and the flu. In the United States, the Flu season starts in November and lingers until March... that’s 5 whole months!

Which means that we are battling these nasty “bugs” for almost half of the year! So, if you’re not prepared it can be a grueling 5 months! Instead, learn what you can do to stay Cold and Flu free this year.

Here are the Facts...

• The Center for Disease Control reports that Influenza, aka the Flu, affects 5%-20% of the United States population and more than 200,000 people are hospitalized due to complications associated with the Flu. On average 26,000 people die from the Flu each year.

• Severe Flu complications can occur at any age, but mostly affect the immune compromised. So, the elderly, infants and those with chronic health issues have to be extra careful this time of year.

• The Flu is contagious for 1-4 days before any symptoms appear and up to 5 days after the symptoms first appear.

• Approximately 50% of infected people do not show any symptoms, but are still contagious.

• While the common cold and the Flu are

both respiratory illnesses, they are caused by different viruses. Generally, the Flu tends to be more severe than a common cold. Here are the major differences…

Prevention, Prevention, Prevention!

The best way to deal with any illness/ disease is to prevent yourself from getting it in the first place. Acupuncture can help to prevent colds and the flu by stimulating the body’s immune system. Inserting a few needles into various acupuncture points on the body jump starts your immune system by increasing and strengthening circulation of energy and blood (including your white blood cells- your body’s defensive line).

Here are some ways to help prevent colds/ flu this season:

• Boost your immune system with Acupuncture!

• Wash your hands often with soap and water! Remember to rub your hands together with soap for at least 15 seconds.

• Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth to prevent germs from entering your body • Eat a well balanced, whole-foods diet (i.e lots of veggies and fruit, cut out all the processed sugary junk food). Sugar has actually been shown to paralyze your immune cells for a period of time after consumption!

• Eat in season! During the fall and winter you should be eating warming foods. Some foods that are in season during the Fall are Pears, Squash and Apples. In the winter, consume foods like winter squash, dates, black mushrooms, ginger, cinnamon and soups.

• Always drink plenty of water to stay hydrated.

• Keep your neck covered.

• Reduce your stress with things like Acupuncture, yoga and meditation. In fact, when our bodies are under stress our immune systems do not work to their full potential allowing us to get sick easier.

• Be sure to get enough sleep.

• Don’t get sweaty and go out into the cold. This leaves your pores open to wind continued on page 4

Football Field... continued from page 2 says Reynolds. “We needed new bleachers for safety concerns.”

The previous bleachers were built in the 1970s: “This was when we had cars without seatbelts,” says Reynolds.

“They were very high; you can fall through the crack, as far up as 30 feet high,” he explains.

“If you were crowded there was no way of getting out. The seated area was higher than your feet.

There was no easy way out; you’re holding onto people.

“We saw a lot of accidents,” he says as well as lawsuits against the school district. “Kids would drop things. It was a hassle. It was dangerous. Every year we got the same complaints.”

There was also a need for ramps, wider seating and handrails to accommodate those with handicaps; and some kind of barrier against rain, wind and frigid temperatures.

“The first night we had the football players out there, it rained; I did not get wet,” says Reynolds.

Built by the Southern Bleacher Company, the new bleachers have “Seats [that] are aluminum and durable plastic and the super structure is steel,” describes David F. Corso, Mt. Olive School Board of Education business administrator. The structure measures 52 feet deep, 215 feet long and 62 feet tall.

Total cost for the bleachers, painting and bathrooms totaled $2,070,847 and were allocated through a combination of the district’s capital reserve fund and savings from prior years, says Corso.

“We did not increase taxes,” Reynolds emphasizes. “It’s not a referendum. Each year we save money for capital improvements. You can’t save it after July 1st; the state takes it back, so you lose it. So we put it in capital reserve” to be used for projects, such as the MOHS football facility, new library at Mountain View Elementary School, heating units and classroom renovations.

One of the greatest attributes of the new stadium is the sound acoustics in the roof’s design which magnifies volume.

“We built a roof, first one like this, in the shape of a sound

shell,” describes Reynolds. The sound hits the middle of the bleachers and projects upwards using harmonics that creates an echo effect.

“When the whole crowd is there, it’s loud,” says Reynolds.

The cheerleaders, “you can hear them really loud.” With fewer players in the marching band, “it sounds louder.” As far as the fans, “whatever the cheer is, you can hear them on the field.”

Another great aspect, the bleachers can fit 2,000 to 2,500 spectators, says Reynolds, compared to the old bleachers that sat 1,500.

“We always thought about having graduation outside; we were afraid to do it,” says Reynolds. Depending on weather, this year an outside graduation could be in the forecast, he says.

“Our first priority is the kids,” says Reynolds. “We did this for the children. “We’re thinking long term. Fifteen years from now, I may not be here; 25 years from now, it’ll still be one of the best; something to be proud of in the district.”

David Falleni, director of Athletics at MOHS, says “It is an awesome site, one of a kind. It provides plenty of room for our spectators with an incredible view of what is taking place on the field. In addition, the roof above provides a layer of protection from the weather elements.”

For the students, fans, athletes and musicians on the field “It allows them to be a part of a school that offers the best experience for a high school student,” says Falleni. “The echoing sound is amazing to hear and it pumps up our athletes.”

Reynolds agrees that the sound has impacted performance at the stadium.

The upcoming band competition, with its sound effect, is going to the “number one destination with new field, new track, nice restrooms,” says Reynolds.

“It inspires our team spirit, our school spirit,” he says. “Our football team has had a losing record since I’ve been here, and they’re 4 and 1. What’s different: A few extra players and the stadium? There’s something about playing for a crowd that’s very loud.”

Senior Liam Anderson, quarterback for the MOHS varsity football team, has appreciated the energy at the new stadium.

Playing on varsity for the past three years, Liam says “the new stadium is awesome! It’s really cool to look up on a Friday night and see all of the school there to support you and it gives the field a whole lot of energy.

“I don’t think that our success has been due to the new stadium,” he admits, “but I know that it gives us a lot of energy and who wouldn’t want to play

T

in front of those bleachers on a Friday night with the town watching.”

Junior Kyara Chaparro, varsity cheerleader, says “I think that the new football stadium is really awesome and something that everyone talks about and looks at in awe. Hearing the crowd in the stadium is amazing. All we hear is this roar or cheering and chants and it really pumps us up. The stadium has really increased the energy of the crowd and clearly transferred to the football team.”

Are You Prepared ... continued from page 3 and cold, which can make you sick.

If this season gets the best of you and you do come down with the cold or flu… Have no fear! Acupuncture can help with some of the nagging and lingering symptoms. In addition to following your doctor’s recommendation, Acupuncture can diminish symptoms like fatigue, headache, stuffy/runny nose and

Senator Steve Oroho, Assemblyman Parker Space & Commissioner Hal Wirths LOWER TAXES Oroho, Space and Wirths will fight to reform the school funding formula to deliver substantial property tax relief to our communities. No more should working class suburban and rural areas be forced to subsidize wealthy urban areas like Hoboken or Jersey City.

SPECIAL LEGISLATIVE SESSION TO LOWER PROPERTY TAXES Oroho, Space, and Wirths support legislation to call the Legislature into a special session where leaders of both parties bring bills forward for an up or down vote to reform and lower Property Taxes. And as part of any special session on property taxes, school funding reform needs to be at the top of the list. The time for action is now and the time for excuses is over.

STANDING UP FOR MT. OLIVE TAXPAYERS Oroho, Space, and Wirths is the only team running that will stand up to the Democrats’ plan to raise taxes over $1.3 billion, increase spending another $75 billion, turn NJ into a sanctuary state, toll our freeways, and expand subsidized COAH housing at taxpayers’ expense.

BAN SANCTUARY CITIES Oroho, Space, and Wirths stand with President Trump and against Sanctuary Cities for illegal immigrants, and will make it illegal for taxpayer-funded state and local employees to refuse to comply with federal immigration enforcement.

Anxious At The Dentist? Relax At Sedation Dentistry

S

edation Dentistry is an exciting relaxation advancement to be able to offer to the 30 percent people who fear the dentist. Whether there is an outright fear and anxiety, or are undergoing a long procedure, sedation dentistry helps to manage these concerns.

Fear & Anxiety Many people stay away from long-needed dental care due to fear and anxiety. Does it sound intriguing to be able to wake up from a nap and have years of dental problems gone and corrected? Dr. Ira Goldberg offers many different Sedation Dentistry options. Whether living with constant mouth pain or have a smile that one hides, oftentimes one appointment of Sedation Dentistry will correct these issues.

Long Procedures If care is going to take many hours and one would rather not be aware of what’s going on, Sedation Dentistry can provide that vacation. Goldberg performs many smile makeovers, as well as lengthy implant pro-

cedures; some patients choose for a sedation option.

Sedation Options Goldberg offers three different levels of sedation to help with fear, anxiety, and / or long procedures: Nitrous Oxide, also known as “laughing gas” or “sweet air,” the patient breathes in a mixture of nitrous oxide and oxygen. This provides a level of relaxation during the procedure. As soon as the procedure is completed, the gas is turned off and one returns to normal alertness.

OCS – Oral Conscious Sedation, also known as “enteral” sedation, this procedure utilizes some pills. Again, fear and anxiety are reduced, and relaxation ensues. Patients will require someone to drive them home.

The next day, the patient will likely have either full amnesia of the procedure, or just a little recollection.

IV Sedation- for the fullest and most complete level of fear & anxiety control, Goldberg works with anesthesiologists

who provide the greatest level of sedation. The medications are provded intravenously and constantly monitored. Among these three options, one will have the most relaxation, the least fear and anxiety, and the greatest level of amnesia.

Reasons patients request Sedation Dentistry: Fear & Anxiety Many people avoid the dentist for years and years due to fear & anxiety. That’s one of the reasons Goldberg is certified in OCS: to provide the care that many patients are too fearful to undergo otherwise. The way people’s lives are changed within a few hours is amazing!

And when these patients refer their friends and family members, he knows that he is doing something to change people’s outlook on life.

Dental Implants Goldberg is a very wellknown and respected implantologist. As an expert in the field, he performs complex procedures that can take a number of hours or concern patients

due to the activities in the treatment room. Again, Sedation Dentistry offers a level of relaxation so patients don’t have to be involved in the procedures.

Smile Makeovers Again, Goldberg is a very well-known and respected general dentist. He treats many patients for full, comprehensive care, and just like the implant procedures, these type of makeovers can take time. Some patients wish to not be involved with the procedure, and opt for sedation.

Dr. Ira Goldberg is a general dentist located in the Roxbury Mall in Succasunna. He provides general dental services for the entire family, including: cleanings, check-ups, whitening, veneers, crowns, root canals, periodontal (gum) services, and dental implants. He holds many degrees and is recognized as an expert in dental implants. Visit www.morriscountydentist.com for additional information.

Columbus Day Weekend Hails Trophies For Young Soccer Stars

M By

H

By Cheryl Conway ard work, practices three times a week, skills and drills has paid off for some 10 and 11-year old soccer stars.

Mt. Olive Premier Barca 2006 was named champions on Sunday, Oct. 8, at the YMS Adidas Columbus Cup held in Bordentown. The premier soccer team out of Mt. Olive consists of 14 players from Mt. Olive, as well as other nearby towns such as Hackettstown, Chester, Roxbury, Denville and Mt. Arlington.

Games were held both Sat., Oct. 7, with the final on Oct. 8. Premier Barca 2006 was the only team from Mt. Olive to play in this tournament this year.

Premier Barca 2006 beat Lower Merion LMSC Tik Tak, out of Pa, 3-2; tied Philadelphia SC Coppa 06 Falcons, Pa., 2-2; beating PDA Hibernian Pogba, N.J. 2-1; advancing to the finals to play the highly respected, third ranked team in the state and 25th in the nation-PDA 06 Zidane- winning 3-1.

“This win will take us from #27 in the state to #12 in the state, 143 in the nation,” says Brett Molloy, coach of Mt. Olive Premier Barca 2006.

“I’m extremely proud of these boys,” says Molloy. “I’ve had the pleasure of watching them grow for close to three years now, since they’ve been roughly 8/9 years old. Their attitudes and commitment to learning and becoming the best players and team that they

Their determination to get better session by session, game by game will allow them to achieve even more as they develop. I look forward to watching them continue their growth as young soccer players and reach their maximum potential.”

Molloy says his team still has some work ahead of them to advance even further.

“This past weekend is not one to dwell on.

Local Councilmember Honored By Boy Scouts For Community Service many of the tenets the organization preaches. For Stewart, being honorable is of paramount importance.

“Be honorable and be true to yourself,” says Stewart.

Stewart is active in organizations throughout New Jersey, working with the Hackettstown Medical Center, the Essex Catholic High School Foundation, and the Calais Foundation. He is also the chair of the Chamber of Commerce Mt. Olive Food Drive.

Stewart spent 32 years in a corporate environment, ascending through the ranks of AT&T to a managerial role. However, he felt he could do more to affect change within his community.

Alongside his duties as a Mt. Olive Councilmember, he left AT&T to start his own business as the president and owner of NextGen Management LLC. Now self-employed, Stewart has flexible hours and more time to better his community. He spends about 40-50 percent of his time doing volunteer work.

M

By Ben Bograd any people spend the occasional hour doing community service, perhaps once a week. But few people devote years of their life to service, which is exactly what Greg Stewart of Flanders has done for the past 15 years.

Stewart, a member of the Mt. Olive Township Council, was recently recognized by Boy Scouts of America at their Good Scout Awards Dinner. The dinner commemorates the work of citizens in surrounding area who have served their communities while upholding the values the organization hopes to enforce.

Stewart was elated when he heard the good news.

“I am absolutely floored that I was nominated and recommended,” Stewart said.

A member of the scouts throughout his childhood, Stewart achieved the rank of first class, a testament to his ability to lead others in his community.

Every day, he still tries to live by

For Stewart, it was exciting to be recognized for work that occurs behind the scenes, out of the spotlight.

He reflected, “It was really rewarding and humbling to be recognized. I’m proud to be making a difference and it’s nice to see people take note.”

On Oct. 12, the Long Valley Boy Scout Troop hosted a dinner honoring Stewart, alongside five other citizens from the

surrounding community at the Chandelier at Flanders Valley in Flanders. The other honorees were Charles Aaron, Kathleen Barbieri, Dr. Thom Bissell, Father Michael Drury, and Long Valley Mayor William Roerich.

Just as Stewart acts on the values he learned from the scouts as a kid, he serves as a model member of the community, an example for what young scouts should aspire to become.

Local Expert Shows NJ Parents How To Get The Most Money For Their Children’s College Education

N

ew Jersey parents suffering with finding ways to pay for their children’s college education can finally get the solutions to their college funding problems.

Most families who earn $75,000 or more and own a home assume they are not eligible for financial aid. However, most families with income over $100,000 are actually eligible for some types of “need based” financial aid. They simply need to know how to get their fair share.

According to Newell, there are several easy things parents can do to substantially increase the amount of money they get from colleges. For example, “There are several schools that historically give better financial aid packages than others,” says Newell. “If families do proper income and asset planning before filling out the forms, they can increase eligibility by thousands of dollars.”

Newell offers a few simple tips to parents with college funding problems. “If a parent has only

half an hour to end their college funding problems, I would suggest the following: 1. Make sure they do not overvalue their home on the financial aid forms.

2. Try not to save money in the child’s name as it weighs more heavily than the parent’s savings.

3. Don’t be afraid to negotiate with a college for a better financial aid package.

Newell offers New Jersey parents with college funding problems a free booklet that explains the 9 most common college funding problems and solutions. Free copies will be distributed at the seminar listed below.

Mr. Newell will be conducting a free one hour seminar for parents of college bound high school juniors and seniors at the following location: The Mt. Olive Public Library, on Tues., Nov. 14 at 7:00 p.m. Reservation only! Seating is limited. Reserve your seat today by calling toll free 1-800-9288464.

Rummage Sale Set To Help Local Church Raise The Roof

A

By Elsie Walker rummage sale is many things. It is a place to find bargains and a way for those who are going through tough times to buy things at affordable prices. It is a time when the community can socialize. It can also raise funds to help a historic church to “raise the roof” and keep in shape to be able to help the community. That’s exactly what the rummage sale at the Stanhope United Methodist Church is all about.

On Oct. 28, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., the Stanhope United Methodist Church in Netcong will be holding a large rummage sale to benefit its “Raise the Roof Campaign.”

According to Lynn Zaremba,

pastor of the church, “Planning for this rummage sale started in the spring. It takes the entire congregation’s help to have a successful sale.”

Rummage sale co-organizer, church member Lynn Gremmo of Sparta noted that while they haven’t gone through all the donations of items for sale yet, she knows that there are all types of clothes, Halloween decorations and various knick-knacks for around the house. Books will be sold and she anticipates glassware and dinnerware, as well.

More items are still coming in, so there will be a good deal for buyers to peruse in the church’s large fellowship hall and the hallways around it. In addition, Zaremba noted that, “we will also

Parent Workshop To Address The Way Today’s Kids Think

A

parent awareness program, “Overcoming Obstacles to our Children’s Success,’’ is planned for Oct. 26, 6:30 p.m. to 8 p.m., at Mt. Olive High School.

The program will discuss the challenges today’s children face with regard to technology, alcohol and drug usage, bullying, risky behavior, exposure to adult material and distracted driving, among other topics.

This program will address the way children think today and will provide methods for communicating messages that will help shape their future in positive ways. It will be led by Andrew Donofrio, who used to work in law enforcement in the computer crimes unit, now runs a successful data assurance and IT security firm, Cyberology Consultants.

For more information, call the high school at 973-927-2208.

be selling hot dogs, water, and baked goods so the shoppers can keep up their strength looking for the perfect bargains.”

The rummage sale will benefit the church’s “Raise the Roof” Campaign. The funds will help to make repairs to the church which not only opens its doors to a variety of community groups, such as Alcoholics Anonymous and the scouts, but has been there for marriages, baptisms, and funerals, and has historic significance as it’s listed on the New Jersey and National registers of Historic Places.

Church member and historian, Amanda Rush of Netcong, explained the repairs needed.

“We have 12 louvers in the tower that need to be done to keep the water from filtering into the building,” Rush said. “It all has to be original louvers as to keep with the historic aspect of the church building. The side rounded outdoor steps need to

be repaired and a hand rail placed there, so it would be a safe place for the public to use; [this] needs to be completed under a grant request to the County of Morris.

They have been very generous to us in requests in the past. The county pays 80 percent and the church pays 20 percent.”

The congregation started in a church in Byram Township, Lockwood Methodist Episcopal Church, on Oct. 24, 1834. Later, it moved to Linden Street, and when it outgrew the building there, the one that stands today was built. It was built in Tutor Gothic Revival Stone with local fieldstone. It will be 97 this year, coincidently dedicated on Oct. 24, 1920.

The hope for the rummage sale is that people will shop, have a good time and while doing so, help the church raise the roof.

Fall In Love With The Mt. Olive News’ New Magazine-Style

W

By Cheryl Conway elcome to the new Mt. Olive News publication.

Readers can expect the same great positive stories local to the area, but at the same time enjoy the smaller, compact paper easier to take along and even keep intact without pages falling out.

The new format is really a blend between a newspaper and magazine.

“The only difference is the size and the cover,” says Joe Nicastro, co-publisher of New View Media Group LLC along with Mary Lalama. “We still will have news and local articles. In fact the actual size of the image area is exactly the same in length at 10” just the width is 7.5” instead of 10.”

New View Media Group currently publishes 14 monthly newspapers and four bi-monthlies, covering stories in 42 municipalities, mailed for free to

more than 190K homes and businesses.

The Flanders couple began their newspaper company MJ (My Jersey) Media back in 2004, starting with the Mt. Olive Weekly. That grew to eight papers, to 15 in 2015 when they added seven new publications in the Eastern part of N.J. and changed their name to New View Media with an idea to “have a new view on media,” says Nicastro.

Since then, they added on four more bi-monthlies in the northeastern region of N.J. stretching into Passaic County with the publication of the Hometown News.

“I am always looking for ways to improve the product,” says Nicastro regarding the recent style change of his papers. “After discussion with many readers over a period of time the same suggestion was being said. They wanted a magazine type publica-

tion that would not have pages fall out when moved and something smaller that is easier to handle. This was a tough decision as the printing costs are about 15 percent higher than the large size. But I wanted to make sure the readers get what they want to keep the papers longer which will help advertisers.”

While photos have always been included, the publications attract readers with a larger colorful photo on the front cover.

“It allows us to feature a large local photo on the front cover and as well as offer our advertisers some other advertising options,” says Nicastro, adding that he is pleased with all the positive feedback he has received so far.

“I have to say in my 30 years of publishing I have received more positive responses to the magazine format than anything else I have done,” he says. “I even received calls from many small businesses looking to advertise.”

Here are a couple of the emails received applauding the change: “ I love the new look of paper, so much easier for people to take with them! Awesome! Liz M, Mt.Olive.

Dear Editor: Thank you for such a wonderful Wayne Hometown News booklet. It ‘s so convenient to hold and very legible.

The articles are interesting and quite informative, the advertisers are great. Keep up the good work. Camille.

While style has changed, content will still focus on all positive news local to the communityfrom schools to government, people, organizations, places of worship, libraries, non-profit groups, volunteer services, children’s programs, scouts and fundraisers.

Each issue hopes to draw in more input from readers and timely topics. continued on page 15

Mt. Olive Interfaith Alliance Makes Strides To Building Bridges

B

By Elsie Walker ack in January, many had concerns over what was happening in this country, what seemed to be division. It weighed on Serena Rice, vicar of Abiding Peace Lutheran Church in Budd Lake and on Rev. Rick Oppelt, pastor of the United Presbyterian Church, Flanders.

Each asked himself/herself, “what can I do?” as far as their local community.

Separately, they reached out and called the Islamic Society in Mt. Olive and started a dialogue with its president, Mohsin Sari.

That was the start of the Mt. Olive Interfaith Alliance, which currently includes all three places of worship.

While still in its infancy, Rice explained that the alliance has two goals. The first is “relationship [building], to work on things that are good for the community and see the power of this relationship.” The other goal Rice said is “to build a sense of who we want to be as a community.”

Sari said that it is about integrating the community and making Mt. Olive a better place. He added that it is about “knocking down walls;” and about “building bridges,” added Oppelt.

The alliance allows people from different backgrounds to get to know each other, breaking down stereotypes and correcting misconceptions. It has had two events so far. About 30 people have been involved in the alliance’s events.

The alliance’s first event was held in April, hosted by the Islamic Center in Budd Lake. The center is a place where people pray; kids gather to have fun, and education takes place. It is the center of that faith community. Visitors saw a prayer ser-

vice and afterwards there was a question and answer time. Rice noted that everyone at the center introduced themselves, even the children. They were happy to share about the importance of their faith in their lives.

The second event was held this fall. It was a potluck picnic at the Presbyterian Church. At that event, two mothers, Jewish and Muslim started talking about doing an outreach bake sale.

Rice noted that this simple interaction showed that awareness of what the alliance is trying to do has gone beyond the local area, as the Jewish woman is from outside the community.

Rice noted that the hope is the bake sale will have kids working with their parents. Sari shared that bringing children to such interfaith events and projects at an early age allows them to break the barriers that sometimes form.

On the whole, response to the alliance has been positive.

Sari said there will always be some naysayers, but the overall response to the alliance has been very positive in his faith community. “My congregation is politically diverse, but positive [reactions] are coming from all sides,” said Rice.

Oppelt noted that his congregation is politically diverse as well, but that the more events they hold, the more people who participate can spread the word on what the group’s work is.

They’re “planting seeds for the long haul,” said Oppelt. The alliance’s hope is to engage more people. Sari said it is about making Mt. Olive a better place.

For more information, people of any belief can call Sari at the Islamic Center: 908-441-6560.

Morris Libraries Expand Its Digital Library Program

I

By Jason Cohen n order to keep up with the ever evolving technological times, libraries have had to adapt. Now, residents and teachers in Morris County can access books on their personal devices, without leaving home.

Now that the school year has started, MAIN (The Morris Automated Information Network) consortium libraries are making things more appealing for youngsters and even adults who are tech savvy. MAIN consortium library card holders now have the opportunity to use the TumbleBooks Library to access digital children’s story books, read along eBooks, videos, games and more.

In order to help grant access to services like Tumblebooks.

MAIN Executive Director Phillip Berg feels this will not only help library membership, but enhance education.

“The MAIN member libraries felt it important to help support

the efforts of teachers and school libraries by not just offering a limited courtesy library card to teachers, but a full access one,” Berg said.“ Educating our young people is an important endeavor which (public libraries) can and should help as members of the greater local community.”

Additionally, K‐12 teachers can register for a full service library card in the town in which they teach if they do not already reside in the MAIN public libraries service area.

TumbleBookLibrary is a curated database of children’s e-books, available by subscription to Elementary Schools and Public Libraries around the world.

Library users may access TumbleBooks by visiting a participating library’s website or installing the app on their smartphone. Users will be asked for their library card number to verify their access. Visit your

library’s website for a link or go to: http://bit.ly/maintumblebooks.

Emily Weisenstein, head of youth services at Madison Public Library, who co‐chairs the MAIN Youth Services Committee, feels this new app is a step in the right direction.

“It is a fantastic resource for our patrons,” Weisenstein said.

“They offer a wide range of juvenile eBooks that children can access at anytime, anywhere – all they need is an Internet connection and a library card. I especially like their selection of interactive picture books, which allows children to read along with some of their favorite titles.

It’s fun, easy to use, and popular.”

MAIN libraries joined the rest of the country in celebrating Sep-

tember as National Library Card Signup Month.

MAIN was originally created in 1980 when several of Morris County’s libraries were automated with a shared computer system. Today, it is now a consortium of 38 public libraries located in Morris, Somerset and Warren Counties. Its mission is to lead and encourage collaboration, resource sharing, staff development and innovation by providing high quality, cost effective shared services to member libraries for their communities.

MAIN libraries serve more than half a million residents of all ages. Patrons of member libraries have access to more than 2.8 million items including eBooks, eAudiobooks, Blu-rays, DVDs, music, museum passes, videogames and books.

Elementary School Library Transformed Into Urban Park Setting Unleashes Love For Reading

A

By Cheryl Conway sk the students at Mountain View Elementary School what their favorite subject is and library may now be the most popular choice.

Just as reading a good book can be like going on an adventure, students at Mountain View are being swept away into a park-like setting getting lost in the clouds above them or sinking into a tulip chair or grassy carpet. The grand opening of the recently renovated media center was held Sept. 18, with dignitaries in attendance.

The original library dated back to the 1970s, with classrooms on each side and was in need of updating so the school district made the project one of its priorities this past year, officials say.

Work began last May, five weeks before school was out, and continued through the summer, explains Dr. Frank Fischel, principal of Mountain View School for the past eight years.

“The old library was a terrific space, very traditional,” says Fischel. But like having an old car, “do you ever wear them out?

They say, I just need another one.

The old one was good; it had 300,000 miles on it. It served its purpose. This one is better.

“The board has provided us something, the best in the state,” adds Fischel. “It’s different; it’s a special place. We’re really proud of it. It opened it up. Suddenly we don’t have hallways.

“Two classrooms plus a library were knocked down,” says Fischel, “all interior walls.” The new library offers an expanded seating area, larger computer lab space with 62 computers, books, work areas and shelving for 21,000 volumes.

“Most elementary schools have half as much,” Fischel says proudly about all of the material provided at Mountain View library. “We are very proud. We just want it perfect.”

Two classrooms at a time can now utilize the library with all of

its computers, says Fischel. “It’s a big space. It’s an expanded area now.”

All 500 students use the library for 45 minutes, computer lab usage, independent reading and to check out books, says Fischel.

The new center goes way beyond the typical library décor.

Mt. Olive Superintendent of Schools “Dr. [Larrie] Reynolds is the impetus for all of this,” says Fischel. “He started talking about a park and a city” and began working with an architect to craft his ideas.

Central Park was on Reynold’s mind but the design looks more like a New York City Library in the back of Bryant Park.

“Central Park reminds me of a safe haven,” says Reynolds, a “special place in a niche of a whole bunch of activity. At that school, there’s so much activity.”

The new library’s setting takes visitors “back to nature, to have a nice place to rest and relax and take in a good book,” says Reynolds, “laying down, looking up at the sun.”

On the ground, “We have an interactive floor,” says Fischel, which features different scenes such as a stream with ripples of fish, rocks, a field of soccer or field of flowers.

“Unique seating” fills the room with 16 colorful tulip chairs that open up, and a “ceiling with clouds,” a flying carpet reading section, “A Tree of Knowledge,” lighted windows and other “lights like clouds,” bricks, street signs, park benches and a computer lab area with a pergola and picnic tables all “vibrant like you’d see at a park internet café” and carpeting that looks like grass.

“It looks like a field,” says Fischel. “It’s a very different look of a library. Kids have responded positively to all the colors and openness. There’s a great interest coming to the library.”

In her eighth year as librarian at Mountain View School, with

•

U

10 years prior at the library aide there, Melissa Marvin is enjoying her new work space.

“The new library is beautiful, some people have compared it to a Google work site,” she says.

“The students love coming to the library. They have many spaces to sit and enjoy reading. My favorite spot is under the tree, with the blue sky above us enjoying stories.”

It was Marvin’s idea to place a mailbox at the center as the location for students to drop off their books.

“The construction cost for the library was $1,067,000 and the cost of the furniture was $90,565,” says David F. Corso, Mt. Olive Township Board of Education business administrator.

“Funding came from capital re-

serves and prior year savings.”

School officials “Felt it needed something done in there for years,” says Reynolds, to replace the “walls made out of metal” and interior set up “like a maze,” explains Reynolds. “It was very busy, very constrained, low ceilings,” no windows.

The new space, “it’s really mind blowing,” says Reynolds.

“You have to see it. “It has a blue sky, it has trees, it has store fronts and canopies, it has newspaper booths. Kids can sit on flower chairs.”

The ultimate goal has been achieved: “To draw students down to the library,” to encourage reading, concludes Reynolds.

The rest is just a walk in the park.

S

By Stefanie Sears ome changes are coming to Netcong, particularly to Allen Street. Allen Street is now known as Mary Pierson Way officially as of October 5.

Mary Pierson, a 97-year-old resident of Allen Street, which was originally named after Mary Allen, a member of a prominent family in the 1900s, now has her home street named after her, thanks to her youngest child Keith Pierson.

“I approached Mayor Nametko on a Tuesday, telling him I had a major favor to ask,” says Keith Pierson. “‘Joe, I want you to name something in this town for my mother - for all that she has done.’ Without batting an eye he said, ‘Absolutely.’ I had thought of the new park for kayak launching on the lake but he suggested a street. She lived in a few places but was born on this street and lives here now. Our family is fully represented on the monument at Borough Hall regarding men in the service. Her family is here for many, many years.”

That Thursday, Mayor Joseph Nametko made this his agenda at a council meeting. The council voted and unanimously decided for this to be done.

“Therefore the turn around was quite immediate,” says Pierson, “Twelve signs have been made - 11 to be placed around Allen Street and one for my

mother to have at home.”

Mary Pierson’s contributions to the state are numerous, so this honor is well deserved. She served as Netcong’s Republican County Committee chair for 50 years with former Netcong Mayor and Morris County Freeholder Thomas Koclas as her political mentor. Prior to Keith’s birth, Monsignor Lang of St. Michael’s Church approached her at her home and asked her to join him in telling her friend Lilian Curran some tragic news – her son John was killed in combat in the Korean War. “Mom refers to that and vividly remembers her immediate reluctance,” explains Pierson, “She, of course, did this difficult deed and will never forget it. The lady was a dear friend and she knew her son John very well. She also worked with various agencies to lobby (not even a word with that meaning back then) for a car for the police department.

The officers back then used their own cars. She managed through Koclas and others to get it. The chief always referred to it as her act.”

The event commemorating Mary Pierson took place on October 5 at 6 p.m. in the filled council chambers at Town Hall with her children Keith, Diane, twins Dayle and Gayle, and Kip in attendance. continued on page 29

Naming A Street... continued from page 27

Allen Street was declared Mary Pierson Way and Hank Lyons read the Freeholders Proclamation declaring the date Mary Pierson Day in Morris County.

Senator and Assemblyman Anthony Bucco presented a joint house document in her honor, which was read by Nametko.

Other attendees include Sheriff James Gannon and former Sheriff Edward Rochford, former Assemblyman Guy Gregg, Mayor Frank Dreutzler, Freeholder candidate Heather Darling, former DMV Chief of Staff Betty Cutter, Morris County Republican Committee Finance Chair Ron DeFilippis, and former Netcong Council Members Jim Arbolino and Peter Schroeder, among many others.

Keith’s friend Bill even captured a photo for the Amputee Walking School newsletter. Rod Frelinghuysen, who apologetically de-

clined his attendance, also sent in a letter that was read by Keith Pierson himself. Keith also shared personal stories.

“In 1976 Nelson Rockefeller told the NJ Republican State Chairman that he knew Mary well. They often danced at Roseland,” says Pierson.

Celebrations then took place at the American Legion.

Although the residents now know the block as Mary Pierson Way and street signs all now display a red plague with such title, all mail is still addressed to Allen Street.

“Many of the residents attended the event and are very happy with this,” says Pierson, “She is a very loved person in the community. The Facebook response has also been great. It was a wonderful response on the part of all the Allen Street Gang.”

Simple Suppers

t times, spending hours in the kitchen can be a relaxing, enjoyable experience.

However, even for avid home cooks, a busy weeknight isn’t one of those times. Fortunately, solutions like sheet pan suppers make it easy to create dishes with exceptional flavor depth that come together quickly and clean up just as fast.

Keeping a variety of vegetables on hand makes it simple to pull together a family meal. Onions, for example, are versatile, flavorful, easy to store, have a long shelf-life and are available year-round from U.S. growers.

An added benefit when cooking with onions is that you’re serving up a good source of fiber.

MOHS’s Phares Named County Teacher Of The Year

iane Phares, an art teacher at Mt. Olive High School in Flanders, was recently named Morris County Teacher of the Year by the New Jersey Department of Education.

“Diane is a master educator who leads her students on a journey of self-discovery infused with creativity, imagination, and wonderment,” said Kevin Stansberry, MOHS principal. “She fosters the love of art and cultivates the artistic expressiveness of her students, allowing them to reveal their heart, soul, and individuality in their work.”

Phares is in her 13th year at MOHS. She teaches advanced and AP art classes, and serves as co-advisor to the school’s chapter of the National Art Honor Society.

“As a teacher, you just don’t expect to receive recognition because you see so many devoted educators giving of themselves every day without any special appreciation, so receiving this honor is very special,” she said. “I am grateful to be surrounded by talented colleagues who freely share their expertise, hold each other up, and delight in

visual arts is incredibly gratifying.”

County Teachers of the Year are first selected at the school level and district level.

They then compete for county recognition and are selected by panels representing a cross-section of administrators, teachers and parents.
