With September comes what we think of as the time of “back to school,” a tradition of leaving behind the lazy days of summer and, in a sense, coming back to reality. Perhaps some of that return to the norm of things can be a reminder for us all that there are so many ways we can help those who need us. Our featured resident family, Ellyn Ito and her husband Daniel Sigman, function as a family unit with their children, but each has found a way to pursue a personal passion. And these personal passions just so happen to be … changing the world. Dr. Jane Brady, whom we interviewed for our business profile on her medical practice, Horizon Audiology, lives a daily routine of helping her friends and neighbors hear what’s going on around them better. These and other friends and neighbors in the Hopewell community can provide inspiration for us all on how we may choose to help those around us.

Windsor Dermatology Presents CoolSculpting: A Non-Invasive Alternative to Liposuction By Rachel Donington

We sat down with our Expert Contributor, board-certified dermatologist Dr. Myers, to learn more about CoolSculpting.

What is the most common area of the body people want CoolSculpting?

Are you looking to get rid of stubborn fat without undergoing a surgical procedure that requires periods of downtime and possible scarring? Windsor Dermatology offers a non-invasive alternative to liposuction, a treatment known as CoolSculpting. This innovative option to surgery helps to eliminate fat by freezing it. With over 4 million treatments performed worldwide, CoolSculpting is growing quickly in popularity.

Dr. Myers: I would say the abdomen and flanks are the most common areas patients seek treatment.

What is the typical age of patients that come in looking to have CoolSculpting done? Dr. Myers: The age range for patients I see interested in CoolSculpting really does vary quite a bit, ranging from the late 20s and early 30s, to patients in their late 70s.

Have you turned patients away? Why? Dr. Myers: There are patients who may not be candidates, including those who seek fat reduction in the abdominal area and have a history of hernias. In addition, there are some patients with a great deal of skin laxity that I feel would not be suitable for CoolSculpting. CoolSculpting is a fat reduction procedure, not a skin tightening one. Do patients usually need more than one session? If so, which area of the body requires this most often? Dr. Myers: Whether a patient requires a second treatment really depends on how much volume one wants to reduce. Each treatment cycle with CoolSculpting results in a 20-25% fat volume reduction. Patients seeking more reduction can often use an additional cycle.

vvv To schedule a free consultation regarding your CoolSculpting treatment,  contact Windsor Dermatology  today to speak with their knowledgeable staff. You can also reach out to our CoolSculpting Technician, Sheena, by calling her directly at 609-630-6310.

Business Profile

Meet Dr. Jane Brady of Horizon Audiology Helping People Hear Their Best By Catherine Bialkowski

W

hen Dr. Jane Brady, a 26-year audiology veteran, opened Horizon Audiology, her intention was to create a practice where patients could receive premier hearing healthcare at an affordable price. The office, which originally opened in East Windsor, debuted a second branch in Pennington three years ago to better serve the New Jersey and Pennsylvania communities. Dr. Brady centers her practice around the belief that what you can hear and how you listen make all the difference. At Horizon Audiology, every day is about helping people hear better. The ability to hear what’s happening in one’s environment--at work, at home, during leisure time, or while speaking on a cell phone-significantly changes a person’s perception of the world. Dr. Brady is one of three audiologists at Horizon Audiology. The rest of her team, which includes two other Au.Ds, Dr. Tara Fuchs and Dr. Lisa Petino, enjoy over six decades of combined audiology experience. Coincidentally, all three practicing audiologists completed their undergraduate studies at Trenton State College, now The College of New Jersey. This is where Dr. Brady’s passion for helping people hear began. While studying speech pathology in a group of several graduate students in 1988, she came across a patient in his mid-80s who had suffered a stroke and was experiencing difficulty speaking. Dr. Brady explained, “After a couple days with the patient, I didn’t feel like I was even reaching him.” She brought up the idea of a hearing test to her supervisor, and later discovered he had developed moderate to severe hearing loss and needed hearing aids. “His ability to have a conversation during speech treatment was drastically improved,” said Dr. Brady. “I was overwhelmed at the improvement in quality of life and eagerness to interact with those around him.” She felt a responsibility to expand upon this ability to transform more patient’s lives. Since then, Dr. Brady and her team have developed a unique philosophy at Horizon Audiology. They place an emphasis on the individual’s challenges, goals, and lifestyle, since every patient is different. They also use their appointments and visit public events to spread knowledge about the roots and causes of hearing loss. “People don’t realize that hearing loss can be associated with dementia, diabetes, and cognitive decline, as well as anxiety, depression, and many other medical issues and disorders,” says Dr. Brady. “If they understand the underlying causes and resulting effects, they may be able to identify, or even prevent, hearing loss before it takes a toll on their daily lives. We hope that by reaching patients earlier and treating the root of their loss, we’ll

be able to preserve their interest in work, family, and socialization long into their later years of life.” One of the goals at Horizon Audiology is to ensure that all patients can afford the devices they need to hear well. “We’re an office that does not only sell expensive hearing aids,” says Dr. Brady. “We have a wide variety of partners. We try to get people to hear better, regardless of the technology they can afford.” With hearing aids, she says, “it’s not like buying a pair of shoes. It’s a complicated cognitive process that takes into account what the patient can hear, how they listen, their medical history, and many other factors. It’s not a one-time fit. There are modifications that need to be made to ensure patients are comfortable using their medical devices every day.” As the only audiology office in the Hopewell area, the doctors at Horizon Audiology take a warm, friendly approach to how they interact with their patients. “We’re a very friendly staff. We love talking to patients.” Dr. Brady explains that, “In audiology the doctor works with the patient over a long period of time. We have an opportunity to truly get to know them as a person. They chat about their families, their kids, and where they’ve gone on vacation.” And when she goes into town, Dr. Brady runs into her patients all the time--going shopping, grabbing a bagel, getting coffee, spending time with their families. “It’s a very pleasant group in this area. The more we interact with them, the more committed we become to taking active roles in their hearing healthcare.” One thing is clear. Being able to hear well has a profound impact on one’s quality of life; and the doctors at Horizon Audiology are passionate about spreading this information. Soon, the office will be partnering with Brandywine Senior Living for senior citizens, visiting the facility so the residents don’t have to travel to have their hearing checked. Dr. Brady and her team at Horizon Audiology find joy and pride in the knowledge that they are able to transform friends’ and neighbors’ lives for the better.

Ellyn Ito and Family Hopewell and the World and Beyond By Catherine Bialkowski

H

opewell Valley is fortunate enough to have all kinds of people with all kinds of interests living within the community. Doctors, scientists, artists, writers, and countless others live here among us, sharing their talents and following their life’s calling. For Ellyn Ito and her husband Daniel Sigman, there was never a question that the two would follow their respective paths, each branching out in very different directions to serve and influence the community and, in many ways, the world. Ellyn is currently the managing director and principal at Sigma Integrated Resources, a human resources management company located in Hopewell Borough. She has worked in HR for over 20 years, and became certified as a Senior Professional in Human Resources in 2005. But she has found her true calling through a different route, something completely different from the corporate setting. Ellyn is also Executive Director and Trustee at Seeds to Sew International, a non-profit organization whose mission is to improve the lives of women and girls in disadvantaged communities through education and job skills training. Although Ellyn enjoys her corporate HR career, she has always felt an inclination to create another way to help others. In 2008, Ellyn’s financial advisor asked her, “What would you regret if you were hit by a bus tomorrow?” Ellyn thought. Aside from the heartbreak of not seeing her children grow up, she decided she’d regret not starting her own nonprofit. This realization spurred something within her, and she, with a dedicated team, launched Seeds to – Ellyn Sew International. Although the organization gives back in many ways, the team focuses largely on teaching women and girls basic vocational skills, with a focus on sewing..

“there are so many interesting people here in hopewell who have travelled and seen all kinds of things”

“I started thinking about what skills we could teach women in disadvantaged communities that could be applied with or without electricity,” says Ellyn. Sewing seemed liked the perfect skill. It was also fitting that sewing is something that has roots in her side of the family. “My mom, my aunt, and my grandma have always sewn. It’s something that runs deep in family tradition.” Ellyn is Japanese American, and her grandparents and mother were incarcerated in the internment camps during World War II. Sewing was a skill her grandmother was able to use to her family’s advantage. Hopewell Valley Neighbors

Seeds to Sew International has seen success in so many ways. Currently, the organization is working with women in remote villages in rural Kenya. The team teaches the women sewing, beading, and business skills, which allow them to raise funds for school, medical bills, and food for their families. Five of the young women who were participants in the organization’s beading program have been able to complete high school and attend college, of which Ellyn and her team are extremely proud. Seeds to Sew International has enabled women to purchase their own land in Kenya, something almost unheard of in the area. They’ve also had several women buy cows of their own. “We’re really proud of the outcome and the impact of our program,” says Ellyn. Ellyn’s husband, Daniel, works in a field that, like Ellyn’s work, reaches far ends of the earth. But his career choice could not be more different. Daniel is a biogeochemist, a kind of scientist who studies the biology, geology, and chemistry of the earth and the ocean, and how it is affected over time. He studies the elements that make up the earth and sea, how these elements interact with one another, and how this, in turn, impacts the earth’s natural cycles. “He can take a tooth—a human or a shark tooth, for example— and learn a little bit about what the environment was like where that person or shark lived, even if it was thousands of years ago,” says Ellyn. To put it simply, much of what Daniel studies is about understanding the basic ecosystem and geochemical cycles of the earth over time, and what this means for our future environment. Daniel, a professor at Princeton University, and a 2009 recipient of a MacArthur “Genius” award, comes from a family of scientists. His mother was one of the early researchers of autism, and his father was a biochemist. “He’s a curious person by nature and an intense thinker which are some of the reasons he is so creative in his field,” says Ellyn of her husband. Ellyn and Daniel met when Ellyn’s brother and Daniel were both graduate students at Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s joint program with Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute, where the two men were housemates. At the time, Ellyn had graduated from the University of Colorado, Boulder, with degrees in anthropology and English literature and was working in Boston. On the weekends, she would visit her brother in Woods Hole, and Daniel was always around. “I was attracted to how smart he was and his sense of humor, and loved his sense of adventure,” says Ellyn. The couple married in 1998 and moved to Hopewell Borough in 1999. Daniel was offered a postdoctoral research position at Princeton University after graduate school, so the couple chose Hopewell Borough as their new home. Its natural beauty, the abundance of open space, and the charming quaintness of the community appealed to the couple, and they’re grateful to be able to call Hopewell Valley home today. 9

Resident Feature “There are so many interesting people here in Hopewell who have travelled and seen all kinds of interesting things,” says Ellyn. And she’s pleased to see the community becoming more diverse. “We are so fortunate in Hopewell Borough. I think about how easy it is to walk down the street, and not be worried for our safety. It’s really easy to get comfortable and think that this is how life is everywhere.” It’s important, Ellyn explains, to put aside your fears of those who are different from you and meet people from different backgrounds. “You can do that here in America really easily.” Ellyn encourages people from all communities—not just Hopewell—to think outside their “bubbles.” “We quickly see that we are all somewhat similar, seeking peace in our lives and wanting our family members to have an opportunity to live their best lives.”

Hana at work at the Seeds to Sew store in Hopewell Borough

And, she encourages everyone to help others in need. “Whether it be reading to a child whose first language may not be English, or supporting a local women’s shelter, donating clothing to the church, or fundraising for a cause that fuels your passion, then do it,” she says. “It puts a whole new perspective on one’s own well-being.”.

Ellyn and Daniel have taught their children, Hana and David, the importance of gratitude. “I had a blessed childhood,” says Ellyn. “I’ve wanted to provide my daughter and son with the same freedom and opportunities that I’ve had. I want to impress on them how lucky they are to have had this advantage and not to squander it. It fuels my passion to provide an example to my children.” Hana is a rising senior at Hopewell Valley Central High School. Ellyn calls her “very academically-minded.” And David, a rising 8th-grader at Timberlane Middle School, has a passion for music and theater. “We’re lucky to be in a place that fosters a variety of interests for our children,” says Ellyn. She refers to Hopewell Valley’s rich community of arts. The family truly shares an appreciation for the community, a place where you know your neighbors. “You can dine at your neighbor’s critically-acclaimed restaurant, or have your oil changed at your neighbor’s auto shop,” says Ellyn. “You can live next to your local gin distiller and eat food from your local farmer. It’s fun to be that connected.” And this connection—to each other, to the people around them, and to the vast, broad world outside of Hopewell Valley—has enabled Ellyn and David to do so much good.

Hopewell Valley is a Strong Market for Commercial Real Estate By Winn Thompson | Sales Associate Gloria Nilson & Co. Real Estate

A

wide variety of commercial buildings and their owners call Hopewell Valley their home, and many of them are our neighbors, too.

Gloria Nilson & Co. Realtors of the Hopewell Crossing office, conveniently located in the Hopewell Crossing Shopping Center at Denow Rd and Route 31, handle both commercial and residential real estate. Once again we have seen a very active year for commercial real estate in Hopewell Valley as continued low interest rates and strong business climate have given both business owners and investors good opportunities. One of the most significant transaction in 2018 has been the sale of the Shoppes at Pennington, a 30,000 square foot mixed retail and office complex on Route 31 to an investor group for $6.25 million in June. The seller, Gene Lorenzetti, was the developer and owner of the project, and a very visible presence in our local business community. He will be missed. Another major transaction earlier this summer was the sale of the Ocean First Bank building (formerly Sun Bank) located at 1 North Main Street, in Pennington. While the details have not yet been made public, it is expected that this signature historic property in the heart of downtown Pennington has sold for over $2 million. In Hopewell Borough, the owners of the former antique consignment store, located at 57 Railroad Place, a 6,700 square foot warehouse building, sold their building for $575,000, and the property will return to the community under new ownership as a dance studio. Oncosec, a new bio-technology company, leased more than 3,000 square feet on the second and third floors of 24 North Main Street, in Pennington, for executive offices. This iconic and historic building was the old Pennington Fire House, and former Pennington Borough Hall and Public Library until it was renovated for Gallup and Robinson’s corporate offices some 20 years ago.

In June, the Pennington Borough Planning Board approved plans for the Agrain, on North Main Street across from the PennBrook Swim Club, to be partially converted into a woodfired pizza restaurant. It is expected that coming in September, Chubby’s Café will reopen in downtown Hopewell Borough, and Café Éclair will be opening on North Main Street in Pennington. There remains a wide variety of exciting opportunities for local businesses and investors throughout Hopewell Valley, including • restaurants available for lease or purchase in Hopewell Borough and Hopewell Township • a daycare center for lease in Hopewell Township • office, retail, and residential property for sale on North Main Street in Pennington • an auto service facility in Hopewell Borough • office and industrial buildings for sale on Reed Road in Hopewell Township • and a wide variety of retail and office spaces for lease, both large and small, at competitive very prices.

Spotlight on Community

Hopewell Harvest Fair A Cornucopia of Local Flair and Flavors By Jill Giordano Farmer | Hopewell Harvest Fair Volunteer

W

hat better way to say goodbye to summer than to look ahead to a favorite local fall festival: the Hopewell Harvest Fair?

This annual event brings together thousands of people from the Hopewell Valley for a day of family fun and entertainment—and true community connection. The Hopewell Harvest Fair has been a staple of our charming borough for more than 30 years, and the reach of the event extends beyond fair day. For many of us in Hopewell Valley, fall wouldn’t be the same without the Hopewell Harvest Fair! It is held annually to unite community groups, businesses, civic organizations, and individuals in community celebration, entertainment, recreation, and fundraising. In addition to a day of excitement under our big tent, you’ll find all of your favorite family activities, including hay rides, pony rides, a petting zoo, children’s games, face-painting, a straw maze, and local food vendors and farmers showcasing their goods. Plus, there are contests for everyone: a bake-off, homegrown vegetable contest, kids’ art, photography, and even a doggie dress-up contest for our furry family members. What more could a community ask for? A group of local volunteers has planned it for Saturday, September 22 on the grounds of the Hopewell Elementary School. The Hopewell Harvest Fair Planning Committee, led by Chairperson Heidi Wilenius, is paying homage to the fair’s roots as well as tilling new talent and ideas. Heidi has more than doubled the size of this year’s committee, creating a group of nearly 30 dedicated local volunteers. “The Hopewell Harvest Fair is a true labor of love, cherished by our community and attracting families from all over the valley,” she said. “I am proud to step up with the strong support of so many friends and neighbors to make this year’s fair better than

ever. We are so excited about some of the new ideas for 2018, as well as many Harvest Fair traditions that we are carrying on.” One of the first projects of the 2018 planning season was a new Cover Art contest, encouraging local artists to create art for the professionally produced Hopewell Harvest Fair Almanac. This year’s winner, Sara Keeler, captured the essence of the fair beautifully. Upon learning she received the $500 prize, Sara said, “I wanted to create something that felt like the fair to represent all the local flavors that go into creating this wonderful community event—to celebrate the rich, bountiful history of Hopewell Valley from farm to fair. I am so honored the committee felt my vision fit.” In a nod to a favorite but forgotten event of the past, this year the committee is bringing back the Harvest Moon, a free live music event the night before the fair to kick off the celebration and set the tone. This year’s Friday night event will feature local band Castle Lane and will act as a fundraiser for the Harvest Fair. The impact of the Hopewell Harvest Fair bolsters community spirit throughout the year by providing scholarships for local students and grants for nonprofit organizations. The Hopewell Harvest Fair Community Grant Program has dispersed more than $200,000 to local nonprofits from Boy and Girl Scouts, to school PTOs, to local nonprofits such as HomeFront. The Board of Trustees and Planning Committee would like to extend a huge thank you to past and current sponsors for their support of the fair. Without them this day wouldn’t be possible.

Spotlight on Community

Community Conservation By Lisa Wolff | Executive Director, FoHVOS

F

riends of Hopewell Valley Open Space (FoHVOS) is pleased to facilitate Community Conservation as a community partnership “Restoring Valley Lands Together.”

Current Hopewell Valley collaborators include environmentally conscious residents, landscapers, companies, schools, hospitals, municipalities, government and nonprofit organizations. Anyone can participate. We hope you will join too. The concept is simple. Take any piece of land and help restore it to be earth-friendly. A restoration can be simply converting a small plot of your residential lawn to native meadow, clearing acres of invasive plants from a public preserve, or anything in between. Since 1987, FoHVOS has made it our mission to preserve Hopewell Valley’s character through land preservation and natural resource protection. We have made our greatest impacts through collaborating with others. Our vision is that Community Conservation will go a step further. In addition to preserving the Valley’s character, our partnerships expand our reach and effectiveness in improving land, water, and environmental resources for future generations. Community Conservation provides quantifiable results to help Valley municipalities qualify for higher Sustainable JerseyTM certification. Community Conservation may be used as a model for group efforts across the state. THE IMPACT Each project has an environmental benefit, and when combined with other projects, can have a tremendous impact. Consider the small project example stated above – converting a small plot of residential lawn to native meadow. What with mowing, watering, and weeding, a lawn requires many resources. It also produces damaging environmental impacts. Rain can cause fertilizers and pesticides to run off into our water supply. Runoff is also caused by the lawn’s shallow tight roots which don’t allow water to penetrate its surface. Simply replacing lawn with native wildflowers and grasses immediately reduces runoff and, when maintained properly, improves water absorption. Additionally, native plants attract beneficial insects, pollinators, butterflies, birds, and other animals.

THE PROJECTS Celebrate our current Community Conservation projects that feature recent, inspiring examples of great conservation partnerships. Bear Tavern Elementary School’s outdoor classroom includes monarch meadow sponsored by Janssen Pharmaceuticals. Other partners on the project include Nectars Landscape, the Bear Tavern PTO, the Hopewell Valley Education Foundation, and TCNJ. Working together allowed the project to expand to include a pond, classroom and more. The Pennington School began their Community Conservation project with a pond restoration and are now implementing a five-year plan with land projects throughout their campus. Bristol-Myers Squibb sponsored a FoHVOS initiative to totally eradicate a newly emerging invasive species, known as Japanese Aralia, throughout all of Hopewell Valley. Brandon Farms Homeowners Association partnered with Stony Brook Elementary and Hopewell Township partnered with FoHVOS and The Watershed Institute on new meadows. A new program at Capital Health hospital expands native planting in honor of individuals. Hopewell Township residents Mark & Samantha Bean converted a community detention basin behind their home from lawn to meadow and restored beautiful habitat while reducing the homeowner association annual dues. There are many more projects throughout the valley. For pictures and more Community Conservation examples, visit www.fohvos.org. Your land conservation project can qualify as Community Conservation once FoHVOS verifies that it is in Hopewell Valley, focuses on adding native plants, and does not add invasive species to the landscape. It’s that easy! We can help match you with partners and will include your project in Community Conservation measured results that document environmental impact throughout the Valley. Join with FoHVOS in restoring Valley lands together and be part of Community Conservation to positively impact Hopewell Valley.

vvv

Stop and think about that. A small patch of turf can merely hold lifeless sod, or, it can improve our water supply, reduce resource consumption, and be home to a life-initiating habitat!

FoHVOS is a non-profit land trust that is dedicated to preserving the Hopewell Valley’s character through open space and farmland preservation, and natural resource protection. Since its inception in 1987, FoHVOS have partnered with landowners, government and other non-profit organizations to preserve over 7,500 acres of open space and farmland throughout Hopewell Valley.

Multiply that impact by an endless number of Hopewell Valley projects and we have Community Conservation!

To learn more about FoHVOS please visit www.fohvos.org or call 609-730-1560 to speak with Executive Director, Lisa Wolff.
