Lights and Sirens – Randolph Rescue is on the Way
By Henry M. Holden
In 1942, America was fighting a global war. Thousands of men were enlisting in the armed forces, and more were being drafted. Women were also volunteering so the national work force was both overloaded by necessity, and a place where accidents could and did happen. In 1942, there was, despite the war-time demand for personnel the township was able to create the first rescue squad, which is still located on Millbrook Avenue, included the Mt. Freedom Rescue Squad.
Five years later, in 1947, the Millbrook Fire Company #2 on Route 10, formed a second and separate entity known as the Millbrook Rescue Squad. Neither group was able to serve the whole Township.
In June of 1967, the Randolph Rescue Squad (RRS) was formally established as an independent, non-profit volunteer rescue and first aid association designed solely to serve the entire Township of Randolph.
In New Jersey, volunteer rescue and first aid organizations, including RRS, are required to operate in accordance with regulations set forth by the NJ Department of Health and Senior Services (NJDHSS). These rules pertain to approved and certified rigorous training of volunteer members. It mandated vehicle inspections, specified healthcare equipment, and adherence to official record-keeping and reporting guidelines set forth by the NJDOHSS. State-mandated operational regulations and membership training requirements have become gradually more complex. The time had arrived for a fully independent and compliant Township rescue squad to surface.
Over the years, Randolph has grown from a small rural community to its present suburban population pushing
27,000 residents. The 20-plus square miles of an everincreasing community which includes homes, apartments, six public schools, with over 5,000 students enrolled, assisted living complexes, group homes, and senior housing buildings. The County College of Morris, industrial parks, business establishments, shopping malls, a major highway, and even a few remaining farms adds to the complexity of the issue. Analogously, the Randolph Rescue Squad has grown from its original one-vehicle garage on Route 10 to three bays: Headquarters on Rte.10 plus satellite bays at Town Hall and on Dover Chester Road adjacent to Ionia School.
A few residents may even remember when there was a small garage on the original Town Hall property on Old Brookside Rd. Presently, the Squad maintains four
ambulances and a fire rehab vehicle. The Township itself owns the Squad vehicles. When an ambulance is replaced, it may be traded in or, in some cases, it has been converted for use by the Police Department or the Department of Public Works.
Today, as in the past, the Squad’s primary goal is to provide emergency assistance within the community on a volunteer basis.
Most residents work out of town, out of the county, and even out of state, resulting in an ever dwindling and challenging pool of volunteers. Like most volunteer squads, Randolph Rescue Squad has found it increasingly difficult to recruit members, particularly those who are available during daytime weekday coverage. So, for the past several years, the Township has contracted for weekday/daytime ambulance emergency care coverage with St. Clare’s EMS. The paid EMTs have been providing the necessary care during the hours when volunteers are in short supply. Evenings, overnight, and weekend service continue to be handled by RRS volunteers. This shared arrangement is

5 Things to Know Before Getting Dental Implants
Wprocedures: extractions, grafting, and / or implant placement. In the second phase, the implant will be restored with a crown, denture, or some other prosthesis. Some dentists will only do the first, some will do only the second, and some will do both. If you work with an office that does only one of these two phases, you will have to bounce between offices. This can lead to a lack of proper communication during the process, or finger-pointing if there are problems afterwards. Are you OK with this? At Morris County Dental Associates, we perform all phases of implant treatment under one roof, so you do not have to contend with these issues.

Dental implants may not be your only option to correct a problem. Root canals with crowns, bridges, partial dentures, and complete dentures are common alternatives. Be sure your dentist has provided you with options for your particular situation. Cost of dental implants: don’t compare to what your friend had done!
Not all dental implants will be priced the same: there are many variables. Do you need an extraction? Do you need grafting? What kind of grafting do you need? Can stock parts be used, or are custom ones required?
you have better places to be. At times it is possible to speed up implant treatments, but it’s not always in your best interest. Implants have a very high success rate. But the more you push the envelope, meaning the faster you rush the process, the greater the chances of having problems and complications. Sometimes slower is better. Again, your implant dentist will be able to guide you accordingly.

For all of these (and more) reasons, trying to provide someone with an estimate is impossible without a physical evaluation and discussion.

working well to the benefit of residents and volunteers alike.
Much has changed since the RRS was created in June of 1967. For example, today’s volunteers must know more about delivering emergency care, as well as understanding and following regulations.
“Members are highly trained, and the squad includes both national- and state-registered Emergency Medical Technicians (EMTs) as well as those certified in CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation) for the professional rescuer. All necessary training is provided to volunteers free of charge, with most training occurring during off-duty hours” said Jesse Glauberg, a Squad member.
The RRS is a busy place. “This past year (2023) the Squad used 40 types of equipment and handled more than 900 calls.”
When not on duty, attending meetings and drills, or taking courses to keep certifications current, members conduct first-aid training seminars for organizations such as the Boy Scouts of America and offer similar educational services to other interested groups.
Recently, the Squad welcomed Junior Corps members –teenagers who share the squads enthusiasm with all of us as they train to become the next generation of responders, said Glauberg.
Keeping current with new equipment and techniques as well as maintaining and renewing official EMT certification
means that volunteers must attend many training classes and pass rigorous tests. In 2009, construction of a larger Headquarters on the Route 10 site was completed. Squad members and Township officials worked cooperatively on this project. The structure houses the much larger and newer vehicles that meet NJDOHSS requirements. Plus, there is ample room for holding meetings, storing records, and conducting EMT training classes.
Fortunately, some important facts have not changed! Volunteers have always been men and women dedicated to helping our neighbors, friends, and visitors just passing through the Township. They deliver care in private homes, at business locations, on the scenes of traffic accidents, on fire calls, on athletic fields, along the trails, in our schools, at the County Fair and the 4th of July Parade, in any kind of weather, and in every season of the year. Some calls relate to less severe illnesses and injuries whereas others can be major and even life-threatening.
Most importantly, throughout the 57 years of existence, community support has remained constant. Each year has brought generous donations from residents and businesses as well as budgeted funding from the Township.
“The Randolph Rescue Squad is largely funded by donations received from the residents of Randolph,” said Glauberg. “With a dedicated team of approximately 30 to, 70 active volunteers, the squad provides the township and its surrounding communities with basic life support services Monday through Friday, from 6 pm through 6 am,
and round the clock on weekends and holidays. In addition, the volunteer squad often provides backup services during the weekday hours covered by the township’s contract with Atlantic Health System.”
The squad provides transport services to local hospitals and standby services at fire calls and various community events. Its fleet includes four ambulances, a rescue truck, and a first response vehicle, all of which are maintained and housed at the squad’s three locations throughout the township.
When not on duty, attending meetings and drills, or taking courses to keep certifications current, members conduct first-aid training seminars for organizations such as the Boy Scouts of America and offer similar educational services to other interested groups.
According to Jessie Glauberg, there are a number of steps to become a member of RSS. First is to download a application. Next, it is reviewed by a member of the squad. If the applicant has answered all the questions on the application correctly he/she will be called for an onsite interview. If the applicant passes this step he/she will select to become an ambulance driver (training takes about three days) or to become an Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) there will be about 300 hours of training all paid by the RRS.

CCM Hall of Famer Recalls First Ever Titans Base Hit
College of Morris Hall of Fame baseball player, Dennis Mack, always recalled his late dad’s advice when stepping up to the plate.
And it was no different on a May afternoon back in 1969 when the CCM Titans faced Bergen Community College in Roxbury.
Mack, back then number two in the batting order, said, “When my dad was alive, he would say, ‘You get three swings. Do not just sit there and get two strikes and then swing at anything. Get the first pitch and go ripping.’”
His son heeded the advice. “I was going to take a shot,” the former Dover High School star said. “I was in college now, I was proud to be on the team, starting and being near the top of the batting order, and so I said to myself, ‘The first fastball I see, I am swinging,’ and I did.”
Mack delivered a line drive up the middle to center field for the first ever base bit in CCM Titans baseball history.
The Titans coach that summer was Jack Martin, who was the college’s first athletic director and had a legendary run as CCM head basketball coach. When Mack was on first base after the hit, Martin smiled and
pointed to his second baseman and held up one finger, signifying Mack’s historical feat.
Martin said, “I still remember putting the finger up denoting the first hit - number one. And although it was the first hit, he got a whole bunch after that. It set the stage for him.”
Mack in 1969 batted .383 and was named to named First Team All-East by the National Junior College Athletic Association.
Martin added, “He had a wonderful career for us.”
“I can feel it like it happened yesterday,” Mack said. And geography has had much to do with his recall of the moment. The actual field the Titans called home back then was and still is between Franklin and Lincoln Roosevelt schools in Roxbury. Mack, when he served as Superintendent of Roxbury schools, had an office in the Board of Education building overlooking the field.
It was flashback Heaven, and often during a rough day he would visit the diamond.
Mack recalled, “It was a very surreal feeling. It would be a beautiful day out there, and I would see the little kids out there running around on the field. I would just go down there, and the field was identical to when I played, I would look at
the field and say to myself, ‘I remember this like it was yesterday, and now here I am, Superintendent of schools - so many years later. Who would have thought this would happen to me?!’”
Mack would have tryouts with three Major League Baseball teams, two being the Houston Astros and Cincinnati Reds.
But neither signed him. The problem? There was already “company” at second
base with future Hall of Famer, Joe Morgan. After attending at CCM, Mack received his bachelor’s degree from Fairleigh Dickinson and eventually coached baseball and was a teacher at Randolph High School. In addition to serving as Roxbury superintendent of schools, he has done the same in the communities of Mine Hill, Morris Plains, Rockaway, and Warren Hills.

HFor the CCM Data Titans, DataFest Spells Success
amza Alvi, of Rockaway, Favio Jasso, of Dover, David Maldonado, of Wharton, Rohan Sharma, of Mt. Olive, and Lucas Spitzer, of Succasunna – County College of Morris (CCM) students who are both currently enrolled in the Certificate of Achievement in Data Analytics program and are in pursuit their Associate of Science degree in Mathematics, Computer Science-Data Science option at the school – won big at the Spring 2024 American Statistical Association (ASA) national DataFest competition.
The CCM Data Titans won first place in the Two-Year College Category and were recognized for Best Statistical Analysis.
Kelly Fitzpatrick, CFA, a CCM professor in the Department of Mathematics and a Tableau Desktop Specialist, was the faculty advisor for the team.
Fitzpatrick said, “It is impressive every semester to see how quickly students can grasp high level data science techniques using technology and be able to perform at a high level to win national competitions.”
Regarding the win, Melissa Albright, Vice President of Marketing, Public Relations & Enrollment Management, explained its overall positive impact.
“Data Science is a rapidly growing field with high demand and CCM is on the
frontlines expanding and advancing to meet the needs of this industry,” Albright said. “We are proud of the hard work and dedication our students and faculty put into achieving this victory. This win showcases the strategic focus of Professor Kelly Fitzpatrick whose vision for the program is very forward thinking. These types of competitions allow students to put their learning into practice and further prepare for a career in their field.
CCM students are extremely supportive of one another and are highly involved in many clubs and organizations both on and off campus. Having another reason to celebrate will continue to make our campus life stronger and will help students who are considering attending CCM to know they are prepared for a career when they earn their degree or certificate from CCM.”
CCM President, Dr. Anthony Iacono, said, “We are proud of the hard work our students put into applying the knowledge and skills they learn in the classroom. These opportunities are great for our students, they get to showcase their best work and the knowledge they have gained in the classroom, as well as learn from their peers across the state or nation.”
CCM in June received $650,000 Advanced Technology Education (ATE) grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF).
The grant, distributed over three years, will support the college’s expansion of its nationally recognized Data Science program and aid in establishing a new, cuttingedge Data Science Institute. Albright said, “Winning supports what CCM already knows, our Data Science program plays a pivotal role in preparing
students for technological advances that support businesses and industries throughout the region. Achievements such as these mean more people within the community know about CCM and the program. We change lives when more people earn their certificate or degree and boost their careers.”

Did You Know?
According to Worldwide Cancer Research, an organization that helps to supply funding to pioneering cancer research, blood cancers are the fifth most common types of cancers across the globe. The American Society of Hematology notes that blood cancers affect the production and function of blood cells. When a person is diagnosed with blood cancer, oftentimes his or her normal blood cell development process is interrupted by the uncontrolled growth of an abnormal type of blood cell. The ASH reports that leukemia, lymphoma and myeloma are the three main types of blood cancers. Leukemia is marked by
the rapid production of abnormal white blood cells. Lymphocytes are a type of white blood cell that fights infection. Lymphoma occurs when abnormal lymphocytes become lymphoma cells and multiply in the lymph nodes and other tissues. Over time, lymphoma cells impair the immune system, making individuals vulnerable to infections and other adverse health outcomes. Myeloma is a cancer of the plasma cells, which the ASH NOTES are typically responsible for producing disease- and infection-fighting antibodies. Myeloma prevents the normal production of those antibodies, leaving patients vulnerable to infection.
BBereavement Support Group Starts
ecause grief can be so painful… One of the most difficult events in a person’s life is living through the loss of a child, spouse, parent, sibling or friend. We are never prepared for the pain it brings, or the feelings of sadness that unfolds. Grief can be intense, and because it can be overwhelming, we may wonder if the feelings we have are “normal”.
If you would like support as you grieve the loss of a loved one, join us on Tuesday nights, from 7:00 to 8:30 PM, at Denville Community Church, the Church of the Open Door (190 Diamond Spring Rd. Denville, NJ 07834). The Bereavement
Support Group started on July 2, 2024 and will be on-going each week. There is no fee for the group, but donations are welcomed for the use of church facilities. Because grief can be painful, it is important to take things one day at a time. It is also important to talk with people who have had similar experiences. If you would like someone to talk to, consider joining a support group. Support groups offer a safe place where people come together to share their experiences.
Pat O’Dell, MSW, LCSW will facilitate the group. She is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who has worked for over 40 years in the field of loss, grief and bereavement.

Iconfess, when I recently visited my Cardiologist at University of Florida Medical Center and saw the scans of my Left Ventricle, a part of me felt a degree of anger, a part of me felt sad, and a part of me felt a great calling to get closer to God. I have Apical Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy.
In a most simplistic way of looking at it, my Cardiologist told me that Apical HCM is essentially “cancer of the heart.” The heart muscle tissue grows at a very rapid rate. So much so, that they begin filling up a heart ventricle, so that the ventricle no longer has full capacity for blood. Thus, the heart has to work all so much harder. Eventually, the overabundance of heart muscle tissue fills the heart ventricle and sadly, the patient passes.
In many ways, I consider having Apical HCM as a blessing. First of all, it has inspired me to get the word out about Apical HCM. Basically, one in 500 people have HCM. Considerably less have Apical HCM, which means that the heart muscle tissues are filling up the bottom of the heart ventricle. HCM gets very little educational publicity. I am working on changing that.
Secondly, it has forced me to get my personal affairs in order. I’m a bit of a pack rat, and in the past few months, I have thrown out a lot of old calendars, broken scissors, instruction manuals, left-handed smoke shifters and dozens of old computer wires. I’ve given a lot of my clothes to thrift shops. Along with an assortment of bric-a-brac, old ceramic horses and old vases.
And most importantly it has been a time of focusing, and I mean laser focusing, on getting right with God. Reading scripture, praying and meditating have taken on a new vitality of importance to me.
Facing A Terminal Illness
One thing I have noticed, since being diagnosed with Apical HCM, is that a lot of my relatives, friends, neighbors and fellow church members have backed away from me. There is an unspoken awkwardness in them, when they talk to me. It’s almost as if they don’t know what to say to me. It’s so ironic, dealing with a terminal illness is the time when a person needs the support of others, but all so many people end up retreating from the terminally ill individual. O. Henry himself would be in awe of the irony of it all.
If you know of a terminally ill individual, please do reach out to them with kindness and a loving spirit. Please, please, please do not say things like, “well, we all have to go sometime.”
Leave the past behind, in talking with a terminally ill person. There’s no need to bring up the time your terminally ill friend or relative broke Aunt Melinda’s favorite, incredibly expensive vase.
Please do not say that you are praying for the terminally ill person. Rather, instead, ask your friend or relative if you can pray for them, right then and there. The words of comfort and assurance will mean the moon and the stars to that person.
If you visit a terminally ill person, give them a gift. It could be a very inexpensive gift. Maybe even something that you bought in a dollar store. It can even be something as simple as a rock or a leaf. Something that the terminally ill person can look at and hold in hand, long after your visit with them is over.
And finally, mail them (using good old fashioned U. S. Mail) a little card. In your own hand writing, share a little memory that was near and dear to your heart, about your terminally ill friend or relative.
Life is short. None of us are going to live forever, upon this third rock from the sun. Love one another. Forgive, forgive and forgive people for the wrongs they may have done to you. Be kind to strangers. Give a couple of dollars to a homeless person. Support animal shelters. Rescue a dog or cat from a shelter. Love one another. For truly, love is the single most positive powerful force in the universe. To thine own self, be true.

Families Can Make the Most of Summer’s End
It seems like just yesterday people were heralding the arrival of summer.
After many months of fickle weather, summer’s warm temperatures and ample sunshine can be that hug from Mother Nature people need. But soon summer will be coming to an end, making room for apples, corn and pumpkin spice.
Even though summer will soon be singing its swan song, there is still plenty of time for families to enjoy the waning days of surf and sunshine. Here are some family-friendly options to consider. Catch a concert
Summer is a time of year when many artists go on tour and sell out everything from arenas to ampitheaters to more intimate venues. Find a singer the entire family enjoys and grab some tickets. Pick fruit
Peach season varies depending on where you live, but May through September is a prime time for pick-yourown farms to open their orchards to the peach-picking public. Turn those peaches into pies for Labor Day festivities. Watch some fireworks
Those who didn’t have an opportunity to catch a fireworks display already this summer, or who enjoyed it so much that
they want more, can find out when the next big display will take place. Some beachside towns and even amusement parks regularly host fireworks shows on the weekends.
Climb a lighthouse
National Lighthouse Day occurs on August 7. Locate a lighthouse within driving distance and visit one of the beautiful and historic structures that commemorate maritime history. For example, Sandy Hook Lighthouse in New Jersey, which was lit for the first time in 1764, is the oldest operating lighthouse in the United States.
Pick a day to re-do
Ask all members of the family what sticks out in their minds as the best summer day so far. It may have been paddleboarding in a lake or taking a scenic drive. Compile the answers and then pick one activity to enjoy all over again.
Head to a state fair
State fairs fill calendars this time of year. They’re perfect ways to enjoy carnival rides, fair foods, live entertainment, and even livestock.
Watch balloons rise
Check to see if there is a hot-air balloon festival taking place nearby. Watch these huge items become lighter than air and get
lifted off the ground. Enjoy an outdoor movie Purchase or borrow a movie projector and set up a screen outdoors. That screen can be an actual outdoor screen or a white sheet stretched between two poles. Invite the neighborhood to come over, set up picnic blankets and enjoy a family flick. Camp out
Pitch a tent at a campground or even in your own backyard and spend an evening sleeping under the stars.
100 Years Ago This Month
The month of August has been home to many historical events over the years. Here’s a look at some that helped to shape the world in August 1924.
• Three people are killed and 10 others are injured when a boiler fire erupts on the French battleship Courbet on August 1. The Courbet survives the fire and is eventually utilized during World War II.
• John Carroll O’Connor is born on August 2 in Manhattan. O’Connor would become one of the most memorable television actors of all time, notably portraying “Archie Bunker” in the sitcoms “All in the Family” and “Archie Bunker’s Place” in the 1970s and early 1980s.
• Berlin Jews hold a memorial service for Jewish soldiers who died during World War I on August 3. The Jewish service takes place after a Jewish preacher was forbidden from delivering a prayer during a similar service held outside the Reichstag commemorating German soldiers who died during the war.
• Women from six European nations compete in the first Women’s International and British Games in London on August 4. The competition is held because track and field events at the Summer Olympics were limited to men only.
• Confidence man Charles Ponzi is released from prison in Plymouth, Massachusetts on August 6. Ponzi served less than four years
of a five-year sentence for financial crimes.
• Grand Duke Kirill Vladimirovich of Russia, a first cousin of the late Tsar Nicholas II, declares himself “Guardian of the Throne” for the Russian Empire on August 8. Two years later, the Grand Duke would declare himself the emperor-in-exile.
• The earliest sound film footage of an American president is recorded on August 11 when Lee de Forest films U.S. President Calvin Coolidge on the White House lawn. De Forest uses his experimental Phonofilm process to make the recording.
• Andrew S. Anderson, the Democratic Party nominee for South Dakota Governor, is gored by a bull on his property on August 11. Anderson does not survive the attack.
• Former world middleweight title holder Kid McCoy shoots his lover, Teresa Mors, on August 12 in Los Angeles. McCoy, retired from boxing at the time of the shooting, shot Mors in a drunken rage after she told him what her friends thought of him.
• United States Senator Nathaniel B. Dial and John J. McMahan, his challenger for the Democratic Party nomination in an upcoming election, are each arrested for disorderly conduct in South Carolina on August 20. Dial approached McMahan brandishing a chair during a campaign meeting that became contentious.
RWJBarnabas Health Calls for Blood Donations During Summer Months
With the summer here, RWJBarnabas
Health is hosting several blood drives throughout July and August across its healthcare facilities to help reduce shortages already experienced at many of our facilities.
Life-saving blood and platelet donations are given to patients in a wide range of circumstances, including cancer care, trauma events such as car accidents and home accidents, childbirth, and mass casualty events. Historically, blood and platelet inventories drop during the summer months when donors are on vacation or off from school and college.
“Fewer people think about donating blood during the summer, but accidents and medical emergencies don’t take a vacation,” said Sally Wells, Business Development and Community Liaison for Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital’s (RWJUH) Blood Donor Services. “Blood and platelet donations could be the difference between life and death for someone in need. This is why donations are needed throughout the year, but especially during the summer when hospitals across the state experience declining supply levels.”
A full list of upcoming blood drives, starting with those occurring in July, include:
August 13, 2024: Pine Belt Subaru, Community Showroom, 1021 NJ-88, Lakewood, NJ 08701
August 14, 2024: Lakewood Community at Monmouth Medical Center-Southern Campus Conference Rooms A, B, C, 600 River Avenue, Lakewood, NJ 08701
August 27, 2024: The Ashley Lauren Foundation, Recreation Gym, 601 Main Street, Belmar, NJ 07719
August 28, 2024: Monmouth Medical Center, Unterberg Learning Center, 300 2nd Avenue, Long Branch, NJ 07740
August 29, 2024: Long Branch Employees and Community, Adam “Buckey” James Community Center, 231 Wilbur Ray Avenue, Long Branch, NJ 07740
Donors must be 16 or older, weigh at least 110 pounds (120 pounds if 16 years old), and present photo identification. Donors who are 16 and 17 years old require written parental consent. If the donor has a history of viral hepatitis at age 11 or older or is recovering from an infectious illness, they are ineligible to donate.

OMorristown, You Have a Professional Football Team!
n June 13 at the Dover Sportsplex in Dover, New Jersey, representatives of the new Entertainment Football Association (ENTFLA), announced at their introductory press conference that Morristown had been awarded a three of four available franchises for the inaugural 2025 summer season.
The 2,500 seat William G. Mennen Sports Arena will be the Morristown team’s home arena. A coach for the Morristown team has not yet been hired, and the team’s name is up to the fans, who can visit he league website at https://www. goentfla.com/morris-county/ and make suggestions. In September, the franchise will also host an in-school coloring contest for students to design the Morristown uniforms.
National Football League Hall of Famer, Andre Reed, Commissioner of the new Entertainment Football League (ENTFLA), a brand of the Entertainment Football Association, said, “There’s nothing better than to see a community come together through sports. Especially in small towns like Morristown, communities feel a sense of pride when there is a strong purpose to uplift all those involved there. Businesses begin to flourish more when everybody is involved. Our communities are an important part to cities being uplifted by the people
who live and prosper.”
Dave Helmer, who is in his 21st year as the Executive Director of the Morris County Parks Commission, said of the selection of Morristown, “Just to be considered, with the history that Morris County has from a youth football perspective, I think it is great. I think this, in a community where people know each other and get to know each other, is just a great opportunity for us.”
The ENTFLA is a unique brand of football. Seven players on each side of the line of scrimmage on a 50-yard field, no huddles, no kicking field goals or punting. You go for it on fourth down, and for a two-point conversion following a touchdown, which translates into high scoring games. There are 12-minute quarters and 20 seconds between each play.
And, should a pass wind up in the stands, the first fan to catch the ball or recover it gets to keep it.
However, the ENTFLA will be much more than football. Consider that sandwiching the game itself is energetic, pregame activity with live music, and youngsters elevating themselves in bounce houses while sharing the parking lot with barbequing tailgaters. Then, once doors open, an electric atmosphere of indoor laser lights, smoke and fireworks will greet entering fans. At halftime, America’s
AL’S JUNK REMOVAL

Tommy Benizio of BeniZio Sports, who for about 30 years has either owned or operated professional sports teams, started a consulting firm that works with pro sports teams and leagues on their business operations. He was contacted Entertainment Football Association founder, Doug Freeman,
to help build an arena football league in the New York\New England area. Danbury, Connecticut and Fitchburg, Massachusetts were the initial two communities awarded franchises, and Morristown was the third for the ENTFLA’s inaugural season of four home games, four away games, and one neutral site game per club.
A fourth community is yet to be selected.
Benezio said, “It is this kind of full event, not quite a full day festival, but a day of entertainment, with all things happening.”

The Incredible Healing Power of Prayer
By Richard Mabey Jr.
Growing up in the old Mabey Homestead in Lincoln Park, Grandma and Grandpa Mabey lived with us.
If you faced the old farmhouse, my bedroom was on the second floor, in the front of the house on the right hand side. Grandma and Grandpa’s bedroom was right behind mine. Both of our bedrooms looked out to West Drive on the side.
When I was 12 years old, I had a severe case of Rheumatic Fever. For one full year of my life, my feet never touched the ground. I spent the entire year, except for the times I was in the hospital, in my bedroom. Grandpa would often come into my room to visit with me. He loved to tell me his remembrances of working on the old Morris Canal. For decades, Grandpa served as the Chief Engineer of Incline Plane Ten East.
But more than telling me wonderful and colorful tales of life along the old Morris Canal, Grandpa would often pray for me. Grandpa would sit at my old desk chair, on the right hand side of my bed and pray and pray and pray for me. While sitting down, Grandpa would place his right hand upon my right shoulder, close his eyes and most earnestly pray for God to heal me.
The late Dr. Martin Rosenthal was my doctor. He would climb up the 15 steps of the old Mabey Homestead, with his little black bag in one hand and a portable EKG Machine in his other hand. He was a wonderful doctor. I remember one time, Dr. Rosenthal entered my
bedroom while Grandpa was praying for me. Grandpa was so lost in praying for me, that it took him a few seconds to realize that Dr. Rosenthal was in my room with us. I think that Dr. Rosenthal was a little amazed of the sincerity and earnest voice tone of my dear grandfather’s prayer.
I deeply believe, without one iota of doubt, that my grandfather’s prayers greatly helped me to heal. For the strep infection had moved from my throat to the valves of my heart. I was most seriously ill.
My grandfather, Watson Mabey, did not have a lot of formal education, yet he was one of the wisest men I have ever known. He knew the ways of wildlife. He had a great knowledge of wild flowers. He would often leave apples at the end of Mabey Lane, in the forest area, for the deer to enjoy.
Grandpa went Home to be with the Lord in May of 1968. I don’t think a day has gone by that I haven’t thought about that dear, kind, gentle, strong old man. In many ways, he taught me the fine art of story telling. If there is one thing I can share with you, dear reader, it is this. Never, ever, ever underestimate the incredible healing power of prayer. For God loves you, more than you will ever know.

The Appalachian region of the northeastern United States is home to many proud Americans, but it is also home to some of the poorest regions of our nation. They survive from donations of monetary gifts, nutritious food, warm clothing and safe housing all provided by like-minded people.
Many people in Appalachia live in unsafe and deteriorating homes. Project Appalachia and other programs provide repair services to keep children, their families, and seniors safe. Crews consist of industry professionals, volunteers, and anyone willing to donate some time, treasure or talent.
Each year the Appalachia Service Project (ASP) comes up with a theme for their work. This year it is: “And be ye kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another just as God through Christ has forgiven you.” Ephesians 4:32
Since 1969, more than 440,000 volunteers from across the nation have repaired more than 19,000 homes and, in the process, Appalachian families, volunteers, and staff have been immeasurably blessed.
This year, a team of 35 volunteer/ parishioners from Resurrection Parish and the Morristown United Methodist Church, helped the people of Jonesville, Virgina, with more than six different homes throughout the week from June 29 to July 6.
“My daughter started with ASP around 2013,” said Eileen Tarnacki. “She invited me to join her in this experience saying that I would enjoy it. She was so right. I’ve done this about eight times now. We missed a few during Covid.”
Today, with the help of more than 15,000 volunteers each year, Appalachia Service Project (ASP) goal remains to make homes
Be Kind To One Another
warmer, safer and drier for families in need. ASP provides one of the most rewarding structured service opportunities in the nation.
Yet ASP is more than a home repair and replacement program. It also provides a unique framework that fosters transformational experiences for volunteers, families served, and staff — by building relationships with each other that break down cultural, social and economic barriers.
We often hear of significant life changes resulting from the ASP experience: of families renewing their faith in the goodness of others, of people newly motivated to continue their education, of young adults choosing careers of service. No one walks away from the Appalachia Service Project experience unchanged.
Since 1969, ASP made homes warmer, safer, and drier for families and provided transformational service experiences for volunteers. Each year, more than 15,000 volunteers serve with ASP, providing critical repairs for more than 350 families.
Appalachia Service Project is a Christian ministry, open to all people, that rouses hope and service through volunteer home repair and replacement in Central Appalachia.
ASP believes all people should be able to live in affordable, safe, and sanitary housing. Shelter is a basic human need impacting all areas of life for families. ASP addresses this basic need, so families no longer need to worry about leaky roofs, soft floors, or unsafe porches and stairs.
Appalachia Service Project envisions the eradication of substandard housing in Central Appalachia and the transformation of everyone who encounters this ministry.
“I started with no experience said

Tarnacki. I did not know how to handle tools. Today I can spackle, put up drywall, and I even climbed up on a roof. I’ve been under a house, and I’ve helped people repair a bathroom and put up a deck. I’ve used all the tools that go into repairing a house. It wound up being a great experience for me. Overall, I underestimated my capabilities with housing and repair of homes.
“By summer’s end, six families will have safe, warm homes for the winter and their lives have been changed forever.
“We have young people and sometimes we will show them how to do something. Then we will turn it over to them and let them do it. We encourage them to build up that skill and feel comfortable with that. We had six different homes that we were interacting with and helping to repair.
“What is probably one of the most important things that stand out from the repair work is the interaction with the families.”
A 2018 census data shows 11.8 percent of families living in the United States are
living in poverty. However, Appalachian families experience poverty at a rate of 16 percent according to the Appalachian Regional. Commission.
It is important that we have the three SSS to follow, sensitivity, safety, and stewardship.
“We need to be sensitive to their surroundings and thank them for allowing us to come into their homes. We must be respectful to them, and not use derogatory words or actions that would be offensive to them.
“We interact with the families and hope we can make them feel better.
Kentucky, he witnessed the great need for home repair assistance. So as part of his already-thriving outreach to the people of Appalachia, he recruited 50 teens and adult volunteers to repair homes in Barbourville, Kentucky. They worked on-site during the day and worshipped in the evenings.— and a longstanding legacy was born.
There were 35 total people who attended this year nine people from Resurrection Parish.
There were three other groups that were working in the area probably over 100 people, there. I think the total number of families that are eligible for our repair is about 600.
In 1969, the late Rev. Glenn “Tex” Evans — a United Methodist minister — became one of the first people to connect the energy of youth with the deep needs of the poor.
During Tex’s 13 years as director at Henderson Settlement in Frakes,
But Tex was more than a leader; he was a born motivator. A true student of Appalachian culture and a legendary storyteller, he set the tone for what ASP is today: an extended family where laughter is king. Where relationships matter. And where changing the lives of families and volunteers alike is the highest priority of all.
Eileen Tarnacki says the Book of Matthew best sums it up “For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, …whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.” —Matthew 25:35-40

NAS Wildwood Museum Houses WWII Planes, Contains Rich History over Past 82 Years
Airfest” 2024 Aug. 29-Sun., Sept. 1, 2024
With about a month left of Summer, there’s a lot of time to enjoy the serenity of the beach with a trip to the southern New Jersey coast. While there, you might strongly consider a visit to Wildwood’s Naval Air Station Aviation Museum in Lower Township, NJ where aviation history awaits.
Museum-goers will be amazed at the many World War II planes all situated in a World War II-designed hangar as well as many artifacts from the 1940’s.
After America declared war on Germany and entered World War II officially in the European theatre, American bases along the Atlantic coast gained importance unlike ever before.
The Wildwood Naval Air Station became a great training ground after it was commissioned. Between 1943 and 1945, pilots practiced night flying and target practice over the Delaware Bay nearby. The hangar itself came to Wildwood by railroad as a kit which was put together to house aircrafts in 1942.
Sitting now in the hangar are TBM Avenger and F6F-3 Helicat among a collection of over 25 planes. Yet the hangar’s usage was far from only being utilized during wartime.
After being de-commissioned following the conclusion of World War II, a dentist and U.S. Navy pilot named Dr. Charles Cox decided to operate United States Overseas Airlines. The company provided national and international fights out of the hangar.
An aficionado of memorabilia and artifacts from the WWII-era, Cox utilized the space to display his collection – which includes Coca-Cola machines, record players and posters among other era-related items. Other magnificent areas of the museum
emphasize more modern components of aviation such as speed and propulsion. Jetpropelled aircraft is showcased with military jets such as the T- 33 and supersonic F-16. Also at the museum, one will find many rotary-wing aircraft in the collection. On display are a retired HH-52A from the U.S. Cast Guard as well as a Bell UH-1 Iroquois known in aviation circles as a “Huey.”
Another display shows off a Pratt & Whitney PW4000 Jet Engine from a Boeing 777. The museum contains remnants of early aviation development dating back to the Wright Brothers era.
A great time to visit the museum will be from Thurs, Aug. 29 through Sunday, Sept. 1 when “Airfest 2024” takes center stage. This year the four-day show features aircraft from the U.S. Coast Guard, New Jersey State Police, AtlantiCare MedEvac and Cape May County Mosquito Commission among a wide array of vendors.
Kids will love the amount of hands-on and interactive exhibits at the museum as people continue to say that it’s one of the best kept secrets in Cape May County.
Admission is $16.00 for those 13 years old and up, and $12.00 for those between the ages of three and 12. Active duty military members are admitted for free as do museum members. U.S. Military Veterans receive a $2.00 discount and dependents must pay regular admission.
NAS Museum Hours are from 10am-4pm daily from March through December and closed on weekends during January and February. It is located at 500 Forrestal Rd, Cape May, NJ 08204.

AMorris County Residents Partner for Short Film Production
group of local Morris County residents are gearing up to shoot a short film this October in Long Valley. Kim Kavin of Long Valley, Tony Sciortino of Long Valley, and Anna Hill of Dover have all teamed up together in different ways to make the film a reality.
Kavin, who wrote the screenplay for the short film, was inspired by a tragic event that took place one afternoon while walking her dog on the Columbia Trail. During the walk, Kavin came upon a man who was in the midst of an emergency medical situation. She immediately stepped in to help and did all she could. She noticed many passersby and yet she was one of the only ones who stopped to help. Sadly, Kavin would later learn that the man ultimately passed away.
The idea for the screenplay came back to her a few years later. However, instead of focusing on the man’s death, the film focuses instead on the death of humanity that has happened in recent years.
“I couldn’t shake the feeling I had that I was upset about more than what had happened. What I ultimately realized was that I was upset about some of the things that happened as people either stopped and tried to help or stopped and did things that made the situation worse. I started to notice that what was really eating at me for weeks afterwards was this sense that we have lost a lot of our basic humanity,” Kavin said.
By happenstance, Kavin noticed a post on Facebook from Antonio Sciortino, a Long Valley resident, who was starting a production company. She commented and inquired about screenwriting. The two got together and hit it off. Sciortino’s production company will be helping to create the short film.
“When you have a group of people that come together and everyone puts in a little bit of effort, amazing things can be made,” Sciortino said.
Anna Hill, who plays the character based on Kavin, is excited to be transitioning into a film role. Having much of her experience in stage and musical production, the role in front of the camera means a lot to her, as does the passion that Kavin and Sciortino have for the project.
“Performing is my favorite thing to do and to do it with a group of people who really care so much about this project, being able to tap into that energy and be part of that group is something that I was really excited about. The movie really presents an image of society where everyone is very self-focused, and my character really tries to break that trend. We want to make sure that we don’t lose our humanity. It is a real outcry for empathy because there is so much individualism and focus on the self, but when we stop seeing other people as people and we start seeing other people as just someone who is a placeholder, then we really start to lose something in ourselves,” Hill said.
If all goes according to plan, the shoot will take place
The section of the Columbia Trail that will play host to the Death of Humanity set in October
over two days in October on the Columbia Trail. Overall, Hill, Kavin, and Sciortino all hope that people take away the important message of their film.
“If our message will change two or three people lives when they are watching, I think it will be mission accomplished,” Sciortino said.
