Wayne Day Incorporates Tradition And Diversity Into Township Goals
By Anya Bochman
ayne Township, which recently rang in its 170th anniversary, kept the festivities going with the annual Wayne Day on Sun., June 11, 11 a.m.- 5 p.m. If there was one unified message to carry away from the day’s events, it was “community.” According to the township’s website, Wayne Day “is a day of fun and entertainment that was created for the purpose of bringing the township residents together to learn more about our community and the many things that our Township has to offer.” As with most town-wide events, this gathering was an opportunity for families to brave the hot temperatures to enjoy a plethora of attractions, and for local businesses, religious and political organizations to get exposure. As promised in the advertisements leading up
to Wayne Day, there were more than 100 booths present to showcase to the public their specialties. Mayor Christopher Vergano speculated that as many as a thousand people were in attendance, and spoke about the communal aspect of the event. “It’s a great opportunity for residents and non-residents to experience a little bit of everything – from religion to sports,” Vergano stated. “It’s nice to see so many people interacting.” Wayne, like so many current townships, got its start as a sort of farming community. Tracing its roots to the 17th century and the surveyor Arent Schuyler (with modern-day Wayne streets and schools now bearing his name) being instrumental in the purchase of what was then referred to as the “Pompton Valley.” The first official Wayne Township organization meeting was held in 1847
at the Henry Casey House on the Paterson-Hamburg Turnpike, where township citizens voted to name the town after American Revolutionary War General Anthony Wayne. After World War II, Wayne enjoyed steady growth and adopted its current form of government in 1962; the construction of several modern highways - like New Jersey Route 23 and U.S. Route 46 – increased the township’s accessibility and solidified its status as a crucial part of New Jersey. The celebration at Wayne Day easily reflected the history and growth of Wayne; featuring everything from local businesses to religious booths of every denomination to political campaigns and youth activism, the day was a smorgasbord for all. Rabbi Randall Mark of Temple Shomrei Torah, who stated that he was simply happy not to be wearing
a suit in the sweltering heat, commented on the community aspect of hosting a booth. “We can get publicity for the shul, for instance with the Purim carnival games,” Mark said. “It draws people in. It’s a community event and you’re missing out if you’re not here.” Beryl Paul of Temple Beth Tikvah had a similar
message of establishing a presence. Emphasizing that the communal gathering does not always result in new members for the synagogue, she nevertheless stressed the importance of visibility. “We get some young families sometimes,” Paul said. “We try to get kids involved in charity work, such as a mitzva project.”
The sentiment was echoed by Anthony Ross of Grace United Presbyterian Church, who stated that the presence was more about exposure rather than gaining new members. “It’s important to let people know they’re welcome,” Ross said. “We’re here, we’re welcoming and we’re part of the communicontinued on page 2

Food, Games, Fun
Wayne Day... continued from front page ty.” Wayne Day 2017, beyond its advertised carnival rides for children, petting zoos, automobile dealers displaying new cars, fire trucks exhibited by the Wayne Fire Department – all of which were dutifully present – contained a hidden depth of seemingly competing entities setting up booths next to each other and maintaining harmony. The Wayne NJ Young Activists had a booth not far from the prominent Republican political campaigners. Staffed by young activists, the group advertised support for Pride Month and protection of civil liberties. Samantha Liebman, who staffed the booth, stressed
that the purpose was to make the authorities ensure that Wayne is a fair and welcoming city for all residents, and to “try to gather some excitement” for the group’s causes. There was, of course, also a plethora of booths from local businesses. In fact, the sprawling gathering behind Wayne Valley High School and the Municipal Building hosted organizations that ran the gamut from service groups like the Lion’s Club and the Boy Scouts to businesses such as LA Fitness and Master Choi’s Summit Martial Arts. Aggie Mintry, owner of Berkshire General Store, emphasized the importance of Wayne Day to her busi-
ness. “We’re located off the beaten path – people who’ve lived here for 30 years sometimes don’t know us,” Mintry stated. “This is a great way to meet new people, and we’ve been doing this for over 15 years.” In addition to the myriad booths on display for township residents to enjoy, Wayne Day was also host to live music. Blue Valley, an acoustic rock band based in Clifton, opened the festivities with their eclectic range of original songs. The Kootz, an ensemble of classic rock, pop, soul and blues followed, with Till We Can’t, a Rock ‘n Roll cover band, closing the festive occasion.
Students at the Theunis Dey Elementary School of Wayne had a great day during their recent 2017 Field Day BBQ. Lots of games, food, and most of all, fun was had by all.

Canine Company Donates Oxygen Masks For Pets To Wayne Fire Stations
R
By Maryanne Christiano-Mistretta
ecently the Wayne Fire Department received a donation of five sets of pet oxygen masks from Canine Company. The masks are specifically designed for pets, to fit comfortably over the mouths of dogs, cats, lizards; and even a mouse, gerbil, or hamster. Now each of Wayne’s fire companies have a set of masks to ensure safety for pets in the community, should there be a fire. The departments five fire companies are: Community Volunteer Fire Company #1, POL Fire Company #2, Pompton Falls Volunteer
We are the Source We Grow and Sell Direct to you
Fire Company #3, Preakness Volunteer Fire Company #4, and Packanack Lake Fire Company #5. Christopher Kendall, firefighter/EMT, of Fire Company #1, contacted Canine Company in order to obtain the masks. He
said the fire company had old oxygen masks that were a different style and out of date. Kendall is an animal lover himself and during his time as a firefighter, has saved three dogs and two cats. “It’s on par to saving
a [human] life,” he said. “I just love animals. I always have.” During a fire, animals are very scared, but Kendall said they understand eventually that you are trying to help them. continued on page 6

Canine Company Donates... continued from page 5 “You hold them best as you can,” he said. “I’m not worried about getting bit. I’ve been doing this awhile. It’s [firefighting] one of the greatest things I ever got into.” Canine Company, in business for more than 30 years, has been donating the pet masks to fire companies since 2008, after hearing stories that pets were pulled from family homes during a fire and suffered smoke inhalation. According to Debra Bennetts, a spokesperson for Canine Company, heroic fire fighters would try to give mouth-to-mouth to a dog. Or they’d empty a Styrofoam coffee cut and poke a hole in the bottom. “The cup shape would
fit over a dog’s snout,” she said. “Some would try pediatric masks, but human masks were not helpful. Our faces are flat. Dogs and cats have pointy snouts.” Learning about oxygen masks that vets use in their practice, Canine Company put two and two together to develop their masks. In addition to the oxygen masks, Canine Company also provides free decals that say: “Pet Inside.” “We send them free to put on the door,” said Bennetts. “For when people aren’t at home. It’s part of our charitable program.” In the past year alone, Canine Company has donated more than 150 sets of masks to first responders across the Northeast, including to more than 50
New Jersey fire departments and EMS squads. Bennetts said that thanks to the pet masks, Canine Company hears pet rescue success stories all the time. She said, “On New Year’s Eve, there was a fire in Raritan Township. We donated the masks to them last year. A dog and two cats were rescued from the home. They survived.” For more information on Canine Company, visit: https://www.caninecompany.com/. To request a free “Pets Inside” decal that can be placed on a front door or window to alert rescuers that there are pets in the home, follow this link: https://www.caninecompany.com/topic/petdecal. aspx.

How To Protect Your Pets From Extreme Heat
xtreme heat can be unpleasant for anyone, and pets are no exception. While it’s easy for men and women to detect if their bodies are responding negatively to heat, those warning signs may not be so prevalent in pets, who may suffer in silence as the mercury continues to rise. Pet owners must pay special attention to their pets on hot days, which the Humane Society of the United States notes can be both uncomfortable and dangerous for pets. In an effort to help pet owners
Dr. Matthew Krupnick, D.V.M.
protect their pets from the summer heat, the HSUS offers the following tips to pet owners who want to keep their pets cool and
safe this summer. Don’t leave pets in a parked car. The temperature inside a vehicle can quickly approach danger-
ous levels on hot days, so pet owners should never leave their pets in parked cars, even if they leave the air conditioning on and the engine running. The HSUS notes that on an 85-degree day, temperatures inside cars with slightly cracked windows can reach 102 degrees in as little as 10 minutes. Rather than taking pets with you on car trips, leave them at home inside a comfortably air conditioned room where they won’t be vulnerable to rising temperatures. Change pet’s exercise regimen. Pet owners
591 Newark Pompton Turnpike Pompton Plains, NJ
who make sure their pets get daily exercise should change such routines when temperatures are on the rise. Midday walks or jogs should be switched to evenings or early mornings, when temperatures tend to be at their most moderate. In addition, cut back on the time spent exercising, as pets may have trouble breathing on hot days. When taking your dog for a jog or a run in the summertime, do so on the grass, avoiding asphalt, as hot asphalt can do significant damage to your pet’s paws. Be mindful of your
breed. Dog owners should recognize that certain dogs can handle the heat better than others. Short-nosed breeds have a harder time in extreme heat because their shorter airways don’t allow as much time for the air they breathe in to cool as dogs with longer noses. In addition, the HSUS points out that dogs with white-colored ears are more susceptible to skin cancer than other dogs, making it imperative that owners continued on page 9

Taken Out At The Ballgame
Protect Your Pets... continued from page 8 of such dogs reduce their exposure to the sun on hot days when the UV index is especially dangerous. Let dogs inside. Doghouses might not be as prevalent as they once were, but many owners still keep doghouses in their backyards so their fourlegged friends have a place to relax outdoors on lazy afternoons. But doghouses can be similar to parked cars on especially hot days, making rising temperatures feel even hotter. Let dogs hang out inside in an air conditioned room on hot days to reduce their risk of heatstroke. Learn to recognize the signs of heatstroke. Pets suffering from heatstroke
will exhibit certain symptoms, and pet owners who learn to recognize those symptoms can do something about them before it’s too late. Heavy panting, glazed eyes, rapid heartbeat, difficulty breathing, excessive thirst, and lack of coordination are just a few potential indicators that a pet is suffering from heatstroke. Animals that are very old, very young, overweight, and unaccustomed to prolonged exercise, as well as those who have heart or respiratory conditions, are especially susceptible to heatstroke. Learn more about pets and heatstroke at www.humanesociety.org. Extreme heat can be dangerous to pets, who of-
ten suffer in silence when dealing with the consequences of extreme heat. Pet owners who take certain precautions and learn to recognize signs of a pet struggling with heat can better protect their animals from succumbing to rising temperatures. Dr. Matthew Krupnick is the owner of the Pequannock Animal Hospital. He grew up in Kinnelon and is happy to be home – with his wife, three cats, and two dogs – to provide quality and compassionate care for pets in the community. The Pequannock Animal Hospital is located at 591 Newark Pompton Turnpike in Pompton Plains. You can reach the hospital by calling 973-616-0400.

Thomas Edison National Park Creates Economic Boom For West
A
By Jennifer Walkup
recent report from the National Park Service revealed that Thomas Edison National Historic Park’s nearly 58 thousand visitors in 2016 spent $3.4 million dollars in communities local to the park. “Thomas Edison National Park welcomes visitors from both the community as well as from across the country and the world,” said Superintendent Thomas Ross. “People typically spend a few hours here at the park, and then often in the community after leaving, which can include spending money for food, lodging, gas or at retail stores. Park employees also spend in the local community. All of these
circumstances have a positive economic benefit on the community.” Along with the monetary benefit, this spending also has a positive impact by supporting jobs in the local area. According to the study, the community spending by visitors to the Thomas Edison National Park supports 44 local jobs and has a cumulative benefit of 4.7 million dollars to the local economy. “Because of the additional local spending and overall increase in visitors to the area, Thomas Edison Park visitors supports 44 new jobs across various sectors of the economy,” Ross said. “These jobs would not exist without our park visitors. National
park tourism is a significant driver in the national economy, returning $10 for every $1 invested in the National Park Service. We appreciate our West Orange community partnerships and are glad to help support the local economy along the downtown Main Street corridor and beyond.” The visitor spending analysis was conducted by economists Catherine Cullinane Thomas of the U.S. Geological Survey and Lynne Koonz of the National Park Service. According to the report, most victors spending fell in the categories of lodging, food and beverages, gas and oil, admissions and fees, souvenirs and other expenses,
and local transportation. “Many people don’t realize that in addition to preserving and protecting national heritage and the

country’s natural spaces for this and future generations, National Parks also provide economic benefit on both a community and
state level. The parks are not just for visiting. There is a vital component that has a significant impact on continued on page 12

Coldwell Banker’s Drive Helps Animal Shelter
olunteers from Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage’s Wayne office hosted a drive and volunteered at the Alan Purcell Wayne Animal Shelter as part of the Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage Cares Day event in May. The Wayne office collected more than $900 in food, supplies, beds and toys for the animals of the Wayne Animal Shelter by hosting an office drive throughout the month of April. On Sat., May 6, more than a dozen affiliated sales associates, led by Coldwell Banker Cares ambassadors Roseanne Nover and Ellen Monarque, gifted the items to the shelter and volunteered their time to help the pets find a loving home. “I am grateful to the Wayne office for giving
back to the local community,’’ said Hal Maxwell, president of Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage in New Jersey and Rockland County, N.Y. “Coldwell Banker agents show such generosity all year, and the Coldwell Banker Cares Day event is a chance to make a large, positive impact on a statewide level.” All 52 real estate offices affiliated with Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage in New Jersey and Rockland County, N.Y. gave back to local communities via charitable efforts as part of the fifth annual Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage Cares Day event. Each office selected a Cares Day service project, with most of them taking place between May 4 and May 6. Since its inception in
2005, Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage Cares has given more than $1 million to charities supporting local communities, along with countless volunteer hours donated by affiliated sales associates, managers and staff. Coldwell Banker Residential
Brokerage Cares’ primary purpose is to provide financial assistance to charitable organizations where Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage has a presence. Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage Cares is a chapter of the Realogy Charitable Foundation, Inc.

The museum collection, one of
the largest in the National Park Service, has more than 400,000 artifacts including Edison products, laboratory equipment, and personal belongings of the Edisons. The Edison Archives contains an estimated five million documents, 48,000 sound recordings, 10,000 rare books, 4,000 laboratory notebooks and 60,000 photographic images, among the largest collections in the National Park Service.

Leadership, Enthusiasm And Improvement Play Out For Accomplished Lacrosse Season
By Josh Lashley
omething very important that could be counted on this past season for the Wayne Valley High School boy’s lacrosse program was a solid, inspired and determined effort-not only during each and every game, but during each and every practice as well. This speaks volumes about both the coaching staff and the student-athletes on the roster. It’s not always easy to stay committed to the task at hand after suffering some tough losses and that makes what the Indians accomplished this spring ever more special. That’s because, in victory or in defeat, Wayne Val-
ley competed with pride and enthusiasm. The Indians captured six victories this year. Joe Della Fera, the head coach for the Indians, recalls one game in particular that really showed what his team was capable of on the field. “The game that stands out the most was the first Wayne Hills game on Wayne Lax Day [a 12-9 win on April 29],” Della Fera said. “The energy was great and the boys were really firing on all cylinders; it was one of the most high intensity games that I have been a part of as a coach or player.” Proper leadership was on display for the Indians, who advanced to the NJSIAA
North Group 3 Sectional Tournament where they were defeated by No. 1 seed Summit. Improvements were seen throughout the roster this spring as well. “Two of the guys that really stepped up this year as leaders for our team were Chandler O’Rourke and Tommy Pellegrino,” Della Fera said. “Both of these guys were the catalysts on the field to get the team going if we needed a rally. They took it upon themselves to lead by example, if they were on then the team followed suit. I want to shout out senior Nick Pindulic for his hard work and dedication, no matter who the opponent was, he

always gave 100 percent on every single play. “One guy who really stepped up for us was Jack White,” he said. “He was thrown into a starting job two games into the season when another player had a
season ending injury and he ended up being one of our best on ball defenders.” The 2018 season should provide its share of bright moments for Wayne Valley. “A couple things that give me optimism for next
season are that we are bolstering the offense with some young talent as well as bringing back an experienced defense,” Della Fera said. “There is also a strong core of players returning for their senior season.”

he Coach is a new column that we started last month. It will be published monthly and the next couple of articles will focus on increasing profitable sales. This seems to be a common interest and is worth while discussing. One thing you want to consider in all of your thinking is the 80-20 rule. It is also called Pareto’s law. Simply stated it says that 80 percent of your sales volume comes from 20 percent of your customers. Take a look at your own customers. List them in descending order based on annual sales volume and see if this 80-20 rule applies to you. If you have an area you would like addressed or have a question now you can ask Frank Minutolo, The Coach, by emailing him at tsg973@aol.com. The topic for today is Increasing Profitable Sales. What are you selling? Most companies are interested in increasing profitable sales and this requires a few steps. The first one is to do a good job of identifying the product or service you are selling.
The Coach
That is what we will focus on now. We need to think in terms of benefits to the buyer. What is going to satisfy the buyer or motivate him or her to want your product or service? Think about what your product or service does for the buyer. For each product or service you provide you need to clearly understand the product, its features and what the benefit is to the person you are selling to. This is most important to take the time and do this as detailed as possible. For example, If you were selling automobiles and one of the features is “all wheel drive” you would then need to think of all the benefits of all wheel drive such as safety when driving in the snow, excellent off road
