The once-thriving dog park located onEmmans Road in Ledgewood hasbecome a sight for sore eyes since it
was first built by volunteers four years ago.
Three girls from Girl Scout Cadet Troop
660 believe that with a little bit of help, thedog park can once again become a fun andinviting place for dogs to play. HeatherDrury, Sophie Olsen, and Emily Fowlercame up with a plan to fix the park and pre-
sented the idea to Mayor Fred Hall early in
Roxbury Dog Park to Get Makeover By Girl Scouts in RoxburyMarch. The Mayor thought highly of theirproposal and gave them permission to begintheir project, stating that their efforts will beappreciated by the community and hopeful-ly give the park the attention it deserves.
The fenced-in area seems to be every-thing a dog and its owner could want. Thereare obstacles to climb on and plenty ofspace for them to run around. Cleanliness isimportant at the park, with bags for ownersto use to clean up after their pets.
Hall agreed with the girls, calling thepark "dilapidated" and noting that this is agreat project for the girls to undertake.Fowler notes that the dog park "should havemore of a presence." She believes that thereis plenty of room to work with, but theexisting park does need some help, saying
that although the space is large, "all that'sthere is a big concrete tube and a firehydrant."
Even after the park was first opened, itwas thought to be a good idea by many inthe local community, but unfortunately thespace was underused. Hall and the girlshope that the park's renovations willencourage dog owners to use the space fortheir pets.
In order to begin the project, the girls areasking the community for donations andsupplies. To help with the cost, the girl
scouts are baking and selling cookies tosupport their work. Their efforts have
caught the attention of Home Depot, whichdonated some lumber wood. Although theyhave some materials to begin, the girls arefocused on the big picture, including land-scaping and other necessities. Fowler states
that the girls would like to plant a tree inaddition to one that is already there, alongwith flowers. She notes that the scouts arehoping to give the park a new plaque whenit is opened.
As their project needs continue toexpand, the scouts have narrowed down thesupplies and materials they need. Items onthe list include gravel and pressure treatedlumber. In addition, a dog pole, a teeter-tot-ter, and "bones" are in their plans for thepark's improvements.
Their ambitious plans don't end there. As
soon as the park is reopened, the girls wouldlike to sell hot dogs to help raise money forbullet-proof vests for the local K-9 policedogs. This effort will help support the"Capital K-9 Association," an organizationthat helps give working dogs around thecountry the bullet-proof vests they need forthe job.
The park has an estimated completiondate of the fall, with the girls and theirfriends and families planning to work on theproject during the spring and summer.
Donations, suggestions, and offerings for
the project can be sent to: Girl Scout Troop660, 91 Emmans Road in Ledgewood, NJ.

Some have survived the battle; others are the friends or
relatives of those who have lost their lives or are still
fighting. Still others have come just to lend their sup-
port. They take to the track to walk; team members pass off
as the relay continues. However, theres no loser in thisrace. Theres only a winner: the American Cancer Society.
This is the American Cancer Society Relay for Life.
Relay For Life is a team relay event to promote aware-
ness of cancer and raise funds for the American Cancer
Societys mission of eliminating cancer. The Relay For
Life is an overnight event celebrating the life of cancer sur-
vivors and a time to remember those we have lost. It is a
time with friends and family - to catch up with that person
you havent seen in the longest time. It is a candle lit for
those you remember or wish to honor, and a time to know
that you can make a big difference in the lives of others,
explained Jaime Bennett of Roxbury, an American CancerSociety staff partner
Relay for Life events are held across the country; local-
ly, one will be held at Hopatcong High School,2 Windsor
Avenue in Hopatcong,on May 18-19. Registration begins
at 2pm, The event kicks off at 4pm. The closing ceremony
is May 19th at 8am when those in attendance celebrate what
theyve accomplished together.
Helping bring about the Hopatcong Relay for Life event
are Bennett and Tara Rossy of Hopatcong, who is the event
chairperson. Bennetts role is to manage the volunteer com-
mittee and help the community plan and execute the event;
Rossy works with Bennett and members of the local com-munity to put the event together.
Take a Lap to Beat Cancer
The survivor's lap at last year's Relay for Life held in Hopatcong.
Both have personal ties to cancer which draws them to
the event.
I lost my father to cancer when I was 15. My great
grandmother passed away when I was very young, and my
aunt is a survivor. I recently lost a friend to cancer; he was
only 30 years old and left behind 3 children. Cancer hastaken too much from too many people, said Bennett.
Rossy shared, My first experience with cancer and loss
was losing my grandmother to breast cancer when I was 12.
Since then, it is sad to have seen how many family friends,
relatives, and community members have passed from can-
cer. I want to help put a stop to this.
Both Bennett and Rossy will be on teams walking thecontinued on next page

track. Bennetts team of family and friends is called,
Friends Beating Cancer. Rossys team, Saving Second
Base, is made up of family members and was named in
honor of Rossys grandmother for her sense of humor.
Rossy noted that was something she carried with her untilthe very end.
However, the relay isnt just about loss; it is about tri-
umph, too. It starts with the survivors lap. Those who have
beaten the disease take the first lap.
The survivor lap is beyond words! To see these strong
men, women, and children circle the track after having beat
this horrible disease is amazing. The sense of hope, love,
and strength you feel is unbelievable. And that is just the
beginning of the event! said Rossy. Survivors are also
invited to attend a special dinner in their honor
So, how can people get involved in Hopatcongs Relay
for Life? You can form a team of your own. You can join a team.
You can sign up as an individual. You can donate online.
You can sign up as a survivor for the survivor lap. You can
become a sponsor. You can join the planning committee.
You can volunteer at the event. There is something for
everyone at Relay! Visit www.RelayForLife.org/
HopatcongNJ to sign up, donate, or learn more! said
Bennett.
Rossy added, You can also sign up as a virtual team or
team member. These people can't make it to the event, but
still want to show their support and raise money. Also, we
sell luminaries which are white lantern bags that are lit with
candles during the event. For $10, you can decorate a bag
or write the name of someone you want to honor or remem-
ber. They are available on our website or from anyone
signed up.Rossy noted that people get scared when they hear this is
an overnight walk, thinking they aren't physically able to
participate. However, she noted that there are variety of
ways people can help. She invites people to register and
come and see what its all about. The event has games,
music, crafts, food, and fun all night long. Theres some-
thing for everyone!
At last years relay, they had 300 participants and raised
nearly $30,000. This year they want to beat those numbers
and hope people will come out and help.
Bennett shared, Everyone has been affected by cancer
in some way. Whether you're a survivor, you know a sur-vivor, or if you've been one of those who has lost a loved
one. Relay For Life is our opportunity to come together and
fight back against a disease that has taken too much.
Whether you come for the survivor's lap, or the emotional
luminaire ceremony, or if you decide to stay with us
throughout the night- I encourage you to sign up online and
contribute in some way. Every dollar brings us closer to a
world where nobody has to hear the words, you have can-
cer. Please, join us!

Dancers Raise Money For Boy With Rare Disease
malformation. After surgery, Dylan was expected to make a
full recovery, but after several weeks of physical therapy, he
was not progressing.
After a follow up MRI showed a significant change in
Dylan's white brain matter, the Flinchums traveled to the
Childrens Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) where it was
confirmed that Dylan is suffering from MLD, a rare, genet-
ic disorder that affects nerves, muscles, other organs and
behavior in about one in 40,000 people, primarily children,
worldwide.
Expenses have included multiple trips to CHOP for
treatment as well as special medical equipment and therapy
to help Dylan as the disease progresses.
Last year, DAmelio sponsored the first Dance-a-thon
for Dylan raising $13,000; this year she raised $5,300.
Less people came out to watch this year, says

By Cheryl Conway
About 50 girls danced the day away last month to
raise money and awareness for a four-year old boy
battling a rare disease.
The second annual Dream Dance Studio Dance-a-thonfor Dylan was held Sat., Feb. 16, from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. at
Hopatcong High School. Dream Dance Studio in
Ledgewood hosted the event and raised more than $5,000
for Dylan Flinchum of Lafayette.
At the age of three, Dylan was diagnosed with metachro-
matic leukodystrophy, a degenerative disease often referred
to as MLD. All proceeds go to help Dylans parents, Mike
and Melissa Flinchum, with their medical expenses.
As soon as I found out he was diagnosed with it, I con-
tacted his mothers sister on how I can help, says Kristy
DAmelio of Sparta, owner and director of Dream Dance
Studio.
"Being a new mom, when it comes to a child being sick,
it hits home and I want to help anyway I can.
Childhood friends since their middle school and high
school years, DAmelio wanted to help raise funds for her
friend so she could spend as much time with her son instead
of worrying about finances and working. She recalls how
Dylan used to climb, jump, run and talk, and then overnight
he stopped walking, explains DAmelio. He doesnt do
those things anymore.
Shortly after Dylans second birthday, he began to expe-
rience difficulty walking. After being referred to several
medical specialists and top neurosurgeons in the country, it
was determined that Dylan had a condition known as Chiari continued on next page

had to dance continuously from 11 a.m. to 6
p.m. Judges were on site to track the girls,
and when they stopped dancing they were
out. Three of the girls danced the entire time
to free style dance, party dances and an hourof Zumba. Money was collected through
pledges that the dancers had to collect to
participate.
Sals Pizzeria in Landing donated all the
pizza at the dance-a-thon; parents baked
cupcakes and cookies; and 2 Sweet Cakes
donated three-dozen cupcakes.
The dancers and DAmelio took a group
picture with Dylan.
I got to hold him, says DAmelio, and
I cried my eyes out the whole time, while
the DJ played the song Stronger by KellyClarkson.
Since DAmelio was hoping to raise
more money for Dylan this year, she has
decided to hold a third show at her annual
dance recital with all proceeds going to the
Dylan Flinchum Rock-On Foundation. This
years recital is set for Sat., June 15, at
Roxbury High School with shows at 11
a.m., 4 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. The third show
will be for solos, duets and trios and all
monies raised through ticket sales will go to
Dylan.Her passion in helping Dylan is to not
only help raise money but also to raise
awareness of this unusual disease.
Its rare, says DAmelio. Not many
people know about it. There is no cure.
Nothing is being done to get a cure. When itcomes to kids, I will help out anyway I
can.
The next big fundraiser for Dylan is set
for May 11- Dylans Dinosaur Stomp- at
Modick Park in Hopatcong, a 5K Run and
family fun day, with proceeds going to the
Rock-On Foundation.

For Christians, the
words of Christ are
precious, especially
His last seven words as He
faced death on a cross. Inthe early church, priests
would sing the Passion, the
story of Christs death,
rather than just read it.
Slowly the presentations of
the story became more elab-
orate with composers like
Bach creating great passion
oratories. However, it was
French composer Theodore
Dubois who decided to cre-
ate a cantata focusing onjust Christ s final seven
words. The work has been
rarely heard; however, a
local Netcong resident will
be helping to bring it to life
in Newton this coming Palm
Sunday.
On Sunday, March 24 at
4 p.m at First United
Methodist Church, 111
Ryerson Avenue, Newton,
Dubois The Seven LastWords of Christ will be per-
formed. Organist Henry
Repp of Netcong, will direct
the Chancel Choir of the
First United Methodist
Church, supplemented by
singers from Newton
Presbyterian and others in
presenting the piece. A free
will offering will be taken.
Dubois cantata starts
with an introductory move-ment which is followed by
seven sections, each
focused on one of the seven
last sayings of Jesus. The
cantata ends with a setting
of the ancient hymn,
Adoramus Te Christe, a
consoling conclusion. Repp
shared that this piece has
been performed at the
Newton church in the past,
but not for 20 years.In addition to Repp and
the 30-member choir, help-
ing to bring Dubois music
to life are soloists Rev.
David Young(Bass), John
Meredith(Tenor) and
Shirley Spooner (Soprano).
Joining them will be harpist,
Merynda Adams.
The Rev. David Young
is the pastor of First
Presbyterian Church inNewton. His musical back-
ground includes a Bachelor

chology and vocal perform-
ance. Meredith received his
PhD in Neuroscience from
Northwestern University
and did postdoctoral work
in behavioral neuroscience
at the University of
Massachusetts. He is cur-
rently Senior Principal
Scientist at Merck ResearchLaboratories. However, he

St. Gregory Orthodox Church, at 5
Church Street in Glen Gardner cele-
brated its 32 anniversary on February
8th. Although the church has been in sever-
al locations, it has been in its present loca-
tion since Sept. of 2000. The church is pan
American and has members from many
backgrounds that include Romanian, Greek,
Russian as well as many who are converts
to the faith. In 2012, the church council,
with the blessing of Fr, Kilian, their pastor,
embarked on extinguishing the existing
mortgage by borrowing from their cash
reserve. By Dec. 2012, the loan was repaid
and the church became mortgage free. To
celebrate this event, a consecration of the
church is planned for June 2, 2013. To pre-
pare for this event, a new altar table with
icon of the mystical supper has been select-
ed. Additionally a candle stand on the altar
and icons next to the candle stands outside
the royal doors, have been selected. At the
consecration, the new altar will be washed
with rose water and wine and relics of a
saint will be placed inside the table. After
the consecration service, a banquet at
Beaver Brook Country Club will follow.
The church members are looking forward
with anticipation to this momentous event.

Vespers on Saturdays at 5 p.m. and Divine
Liturgy on Sundays at 10 a.m. Starting on

ities. The newly organized Sisterhood of St.
Sophia is holding a spring bulb sale. A Fish

Closed off in a large room, they won-
der what will happen. There is an
uneasiness in the air. Once 12 trust-
ed friends, now one will betray them all by
betraying their leader. In disbelief that one
could do such a thing, each reflects on his
life and asks, is it I Lord?
On March 28th at 7:30pm, the events ofJesuss Last Supper will come alive in a dra-
matic presentation at the Stanhope United
Methodist Church, #2 Route 183 in
Netcong. Portraying the disciples will be
members of the churchs United Methodist
Mens group. A freewill offering will be
taken.
You can paint a picture of the Lord's
supper with words in a sermon or devotion.
However, when each man steps forward to
introduce the disciple he is portraying, and
then takes his place at the table and breaksbread and shares the cup with Jesus, it
becomes a real life experience for both the
men and the congregation, said the
churchs pastor, the Rev. Tom Kinter.
Kinter himself is under-study for two parts.
The cast includes local area residents,
Angelo Benincasa as James the Lesser,
Randy Schrader as Matthew, Jayson
Daniels as Nathaniel, Steve Wootton as
James, Jim Oscovitch as Andrew, ScottLefurge as Judas, Rick Munoz as Thaddeus,
Orson Gale as Phillip, Bruce Bristol as
John, Jason Worthington as Simon the
Zealot, Fred Sampson as Peter, and Dana
Benbow as Jesus.
As Jesus' beloved disciple, John, I
extend to all a personal invitation to join us
as we share our thoughts and concerns with
you about what will happen to Christ after
we finish our Last Supper with Him, said
Bristol.

Its been 25 years and the bunny is still hopping
and still hiding eggs. At 1pm on March 23th,
the Port Morris United Methodist Church will
hold its 25th annual Easter Egg Hunt and PuppetShow. The event is open to children ages 1 10.
The church is located at 296 Center Street in
Landing. Parking is on the street and in the lot on
Main Street (behind the church). The event is free.
Coordinating the event and providing the puppet
show is Miss Tina Berchak of Stanhope. Berchak
and a band of volunteers will entertain the children
and get them ready for the arrival of the bunny.
Once the hunt begins, the children will follow the
bunny to where hes hidden his eggs. Children will
be separated into egg groups for the hunt.
Following the hunt, the children will return to thechurch for games and refreshments.
Marking its silver anniversary, the event has
come a long way from its first year, when it consist-
ed only of the hunt. Being nave about egg hunts,
no one thought to have bags on hands for the
hunters. There are memories of mothers, acting like
farmers, and using their shirt tails as baskets
where their children could place their found eggs.
Over the years, the church has learned its lessons
and has encouraged children to bring a basket or a
bag in which to put the eggs they find.
So many children, so many eggs. Twenty-five
years of them. I look forward to this event every
year, said the Easter Bunny.
A sentimental part of the March 23rd event will
be a display of pictures from the past 25 years. Past
hunters can look for themselves in the photos. Some
of those past hunters now bring their own littlehunters to the event.
Reflecting on the day, the churchs pastor, Nick
Petrov said, A tradition of Easter is the egg that
symbolizes, in a Christian context, both the tomb of
Jesus and the new life Jesus brings by his resurrec-
tion. A fun opportunity to highlight this belief is our
annual Easter Egg Hunt that happens the weekend
before Easter. I am so happy that it will be our 25th
Annual Easter Egg Hunt. It is such a joyful event,
with lots of games, a puppet show, piata, refresh-
ments, and candies. A smiling Easter bunny and
helpers will have sprinkled plastic Easter eggs
around the secret hiding place. After filling their
baskets, the children head into the Church building
again lots of fun and lots of cookies await in the
Fellowship hall. What a day! This wonderful com-
munity event is sponsored by our Port Morris
church and has been going on for many years. We
are so happy to reach out to our neighborhood and
it is a privilege for us to share with the kids the joy
of Easter. However, the love these kids give far out-
weighs anything we could ever do for them.

and Puppet Show, call: 973-347-0381.

At St Michael School in Netcong, we
believe it is important for children
to maintain continuity of learning
during the summer months! Did you know
- that the lack of education during the sum-
mer months that all students experiencelearning losses if they do not engage in edu-
cational activities. Also a fact is that on
average, students lose approximately 2.6
months of grade level equivalency in math-
ematical computation skills during the sum-
mer months. That is why many teachers
have to review curriculum when the school
year starts.
This great summer camp at St. Michael
School has a great fun academic program to
keep your child learning. We offer different
weekly themes that are incorporated into theacademic curriculum! We also recognize
that children need to have fun during the
summer months so we make sure that is a
large part of camp! We have field trips,
crafts and outside activities to ensure the
children remember how much fun summer
is!
We use a variety of technological tools to
help keep learning interesting and current
with the 21st century! Our camp is safe, fun
and staffed with certified teachers, a regis-
tered nurse and certified staff!
St. Michael School Academic camp
begins July 1, 2013 and runs until Aug. 16,
2013. Camp hours are from 9am to 3pm
with morning care available beginning at
7:30 am and aftercare available from 3pm to
5 30pm. Camp fees are as follows:$150.00/week with an optional $20.00

For nigh to a decade, the family of Mr.
Leo Wong, owner of the China King
Restaurant, has been supplying
Kenvil and surroundings with tasty Chinese
specialities. The family-friendly restaurant
is tucked away in the Kenvil Plaza, right
next to the intersection of Rte. 46 & Hillside
Avenue. It is easily spotted from Rte. 46,
thanks to its cheerful red and yellow sign.For those customers who like to go out and
sit for a bit while eating their food, a restau-
rant area is sectioned off for dining, decorat-
ed in very authentic Chinese style. In addi-
tion to dining in, the restaurant of course
offers take out and if the customers live
locally, a free of charge delivery service is
available (min. order $10).
Besides well-known dishes like General
Tsao's and Sweet and Sour Chicken, the
menu presents a wide selection of Chinese
dishes that meet the taste of both Asian and
non-Asian customers. One of the best is
Beef and Shrimp with the luscious wide rice
noodles (beef/shrimp chow fun). "We take
pride in cooking every meal using the fresh-
est ingredients only" explains Mr. Weng.
The staff only use 100% vegetable oil and
abstain from using any MSG. The portions
are very generous, the prices very afford-
able. Lunch specials price just over $5.00
and really beckon to be tried out! Service isvery efficient. Should you nevertheless
need to wait a few minutes for your order,
make sure to have a good look at the large
picture of Westlake, one of the most roman-
tic and poetic spots in China, or why not say
hello to the handsome Beta fish on the
counter!
Thanks to the warm-heartedness of Mr.
Weng and his crew, China King is more
than just a Chinese Restaurant. To me--who
in the past lived in China for a number of
years --- it has become a little friendly

disons WesternElectric was a direct
current system andhis fierce competitor wasWestinghouse electric com-pany, which used alternat-ing current. Edison argu-ment against AC power wasso prolific that the feud hadpresented a nasty side ofEdison. Shrewd at market-ing and public relations,Edison set out to find livingexamples on the dangers ofAC power.
Thomas Edison looked forany demonstration to get thepublic to detest and fear thepromotion of AC power. Hefound it by marketing theexecution effectiveness ofAC power over DC. Hisfirst public negative cam-paign on AC power was in1887. He held a publicdemonstration in WestOrange, New Jersey. Edisonconfigured a 1000 voltWestinghouse generator and
connected it to a metal platewhere he executed a dozenanimals with it. This
became the intended specta-cle for the press and a newword was coined - "electro-cution" to explain the fatalapplication.
Harold Pitney Brownwith very little formal train-ing in the field of science orinvention wanted to be asuccessful inventor. Browngot Edisons attention whenhe wrote an editorial in theNew York post of the tragic
incident of a young boy whowas killed by accidentlytouching an exposed tele-graph wire using alternatingcurrent.
Edison would help pro-pel the career of HaroldPitney Brown a formerWestern Electric Companysalesperson who soldEdisons electric pens.Brown had greater aspira-tion than equipment sales.Thomas Edison hired
Brown to work on thedesign of an inferiorElectric Chair using DC
power. In 1888 the NewYork legislature passedelectrocution as the state'smethod of execution.However, there were twodesigns for an electric chair-one using AC and the otherDC power. A committeewas formed to decide on thebest method and Edison sawan opportunity to sway thepublic on the fatality of ACpower with AC the choice
current for capital punish-ment. Edison was deter-mined that executionsshould be carried out byAC. He had instructedHarold Brown to stealthilyprocure and installWestinghouse AC genera-tors in the prison to helpfacilitate the committeechoice in choosing ACpower for executions.Edison also had a key ally toinfluence the committee.
He hired Dr. Fred Petersonas Harold Browns assistanton designing the inferior
DC electric chair forEdison. Coincidently, DrPeterson was also on thecommittee and he helpedsteer the committee intochoosing the AC electricchair. The electrical execu-tion law went into effect onJanuary 1, 1889.
Westinghouse realizedthe negative impact of thisdecision to the publics per-ception of AC power.
Westinghouse refused tosell AC generators to theNew York state prisonauthorities. Edison helpedNY bypass the hurdlesplaced by Westinghouse.Edison provided the ACgenerators the state needed.
Westinghouse even paidthe appeals for the firstinmates sentenced to deathby electrocution on thegrounds that "electrocutionwas cruel and unusual pun-
ishment." Edison and
Brown counter testified thatit was a "quick and painlessform of death." ThomasEdison and the state of NewYork won. For many years,the lexicon for electric chairexecutions was beingWESTINGHOUSED.
These public electrocu-tion spectacles promoted byThomas Edison continuedinto the new century. OnJanuary 4, 1903, Topsy abad-tempered circus ele-
phant succumbed to 6,600-
volts of AC charge.Please visit the National

AAUW-NJ Communications VP
The American Association of
University Women New Jersey, Incand Rutgers University School of
Engineering are calling on all New Jersey
High Schools grades 9-11 to participate in a
day of college campus workshops on STEM
(Science Technology Engineering and
Math).
On Thursday May 23, 2013, high school
girls from around the state will have the
opportunity to learn problem-solving skills
by engaging in hands-on workshop sessions
with faculty and students in Technology and
Engineering disciplines.
The goal of the program is to encourage
them to explore the many high-demand,
well-paying careers in technology areas.
AAUW's report, Gender Gaps, indicated
that young women lag behind young men in
acquiring technical proficiencies. The
report cites evidence that girls are more
likely to use technology when they see its
real-world applications. This years pro-
grams are:
Kitchen Chemistry How and why do
the things we use everyday (like dish deter-
gent) work.
WaterWater Put together the ulti-
mate super-soaker in Part I, then make it
work in Part II.
Build a BridgeTo Wherever YouWant To Go Use the basics of civil engi-
neering to design and build a safe bridge to
wherever your imagination takes you.
Walk With Technology Work with a
team to design a prosthetic leg that will help
someone walk again.
Clean and Green Work with a team of
engineers to design and test ways to clean
up oil spills that damage our environment.
Wheeeee!! -- Build the most outra-
geously exciting, scary roller coaster you
can imagine.
Take A Seat Want to relax at the end
of a long day? Build the best chair ever!
Educators/Chaperones: A STEM
Adventure STEM can take us anywhere
we want to go. This hands-on experience
will show you how.
It is not too late for your school to partic-
ipate in the program with a registration fee
of only $20.00 per person. Please have
your school representative contact Jean
Wadsworth - JSWPAAUWNJ@aol.com
for more information and registration mate-
rial.
