Students from Hopatcong High School

were recently invited to spend the

morning at High Point Regional High

School listening to a presentation from a real

life Astronaut. Students from the STEAMAcademy and Engineering classes were

given the opportunity to hear a presentation

on “The Future of Technology” presented by

Dr. Sandra Magnus.

Magnus has completed three missions tospace with the longest being a four month

stay aboard the International Space Station.

Her presentation focused on the theme of “if

you can dream it, you can achieve it.” She

spent time talking about how her educationallowed her to get to where she is today.

Starting with an interest in Physics in

high school she continued her education to

earn a master’s degree and doctorate. Hergoal of being an astronaut started as a little

girl and was eventually realized later in life.

Her first hand description of every aspect of

space life was riveting. She outlined the

procedure to become an astronaut and con-

tinued with how it felt to fly on the last shut-tle mission the United States sent to space.

A question and answer session followed

her presentation and she generously offered

honest answers about all details of living on

the International Space Station.The students of Hopatcong who attended

Dr. Magnus’s presentation were very fortu-

nate to have been inspired and motivated by

a true American hero.

Local bands performing on patio

boats; local restaurants selling sig-

nature dishes; local businesses sell-

ing their products and services; communi-

ty organizations sharing their missions and

messages… and at the center of it all, afull-on celebration of Lake Hopatcong

itself, with boat rides (for some luckyattendees), nautical kids’ crafts, and lake

demonstrations. The second-annual Lake

Hopatcong Block Party is all about NewJersey’s largest lake and the vibrant com-

munity that surrounds it.

Held 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Sat., May 9 at

Hopatcong State Park, the block party

brought together a variety of businessesand groups from around the lake, along

with thousands of visitors from near and

far. The Lake Hopatcong Block Party is

part of the group’s effort to bring togetherthe four towns and two counties that sur-

round Lake Hopatcong and celebrate as aunited community.

“There is so much to celebrate about

this lake and the people and businesses

who call this area home,” said Jessica K.

Murphy, president of the Lake HopatcongFoundation, which is coordinated this

event for the second year.

About 3,000 visitors, plus more than

200 vendors, and 80 volunteers participat-

ed. New events this year included freeboat rides for those who signed up; an 18-passenger trackless train, which rain on

walking paths in the park and overlooked

the park/lake/Block Party; patio boats up

on the same level as the vendors with live

bands performing on them throughout the

day; 15 food vendors, including mostly

local restaurants selling their signaturedishes; a very active children’s area with

games and activities for kids, as well as a

scavenger hunt that had them going all

over the place within the Block Party; and

the four towns had spots assigned in thecenter of the event to show off their plansand activities as well as give their local

officials a chance to meet with local resi-

dents.

The money raised from parking dona-

tions, registrations, and sponsorshipshelped cover the cost of the event itself,

“which we see as part of our mission – to

unite the towns around the lake and cele-

brate the lake community,” says Murphy.

The 18-passenger train collected a $2

donation per person, which went directlyto our Lake Hopatcong Train Station capi-

tal campaign, otherwise all the money goes

to the Lake Hopatcong Foundation.

“We cover our expenses, and if there is

any surplus, it helps cover our other proj-ects and initiatives including safety, lake

education in local schools, water quality,

invasive species prevention,” adds

Murphy.

“The Lake Hopatcong Block Partyshowcases our local community in so

many ways and this year the goal was tomake the event bigger and better,” said

LHF development director Lauren Rossi.

Upcoming events include a group hike

set for Sun., June 7 at the Ice Age Trail inLanding; the Lake Hopatcong Foundation

Lake Hopatcong Block Party Celebrates NJ’s Largest Lake

Gala and Auction set for Sat., July 18, at

the Lake Hopatcong Yacht Club in Mt.

Arlington; and the Lake Loop, a

bike/walk/kayak challenge back at

Hopatcong State Park on Sun., Oct. 11.

The Lake Hopatcong Foundation is a

registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization

with a mission of “improving Lake

Hopatcong for all, now and in the years to

come.”

Special Education teachers in Hopatcong schools,

Julie Wilson and Ashley Ferrentino, are showing

their students a different side to learning. Students

in both classes are participating in Community Based

Instruction trips to foster independence and to work ondaily living skills outside of the classroom.

Both classes are scheduled to go to the H.I.L.L.S

House at Centenary College this spring. The H.I.L.L.S

House Program (Helping Individuals Learn Life Skills)

gives students positive learning experiences and opportu-

nities to reach his/her highest level of independence indaily living skills before transitioning towards communi-

ty-based activities. The students will work on skills such

as home maintenance, cleaning, and gardening and hospi-

tality skills such as cooking, laundry, making beds, budg-

eting, and clerical tasks.

Learning these skills is crucial for students to becomeindependent. It is hard to duplicate this experiential learn-

ing process in a tradition classroom and being able to go

to the H.I.L.L.S House is a unique opportunity for our stu-

dents to work with their teachers in an authentic setting.

It is our hope that as people attend func-

tions such as this, that they will be touched

with God's love. It's fun to be able to take

time to share with people in the communi-ty and to find ways that we can assist with

the needs of the community and beyond.”

For the church members, it is a great

time of fellowship as they put together the

event and they look forward to it withexpectation.

Church member Bruce Bristol of

Landing said, “ Super Stanhope

Strawberry Spectacular! I’m looking for-ward to that famous sweet strawberryshortcake, sizzling sausage and crafty

crafts. I can't wait!”

Reflecting on the event and the commu-

nity, Rush said, “The Strawberry festival

gives people the opportunity to come and

see our church and find out what Stanhope

United Methodist

Church is all about, and find out the his-tory of the ‘Church in the Glen’. We've

been in the community since the 1834 and

have played a vital role in the community

all these years, not only with the

Strawberry Festival, but the old time auc-

tions that we used to hold. The mission of

the church has always been to play a part

in the community, and being located across

from beautiful Lake Musconetcong, you

can't miss the beauty of the area whichresembles a ‘glen’. We invite people to be

there on Strawberry Festival Day and not

only then, but to worship with us on

Sunday. Service starts at 9:30 a.m.”

The temperatures are rising and thebirds are chirping- great motivation toresume favorite warm weather activi-

ties. For runners, that means the start of

spring training.Creating a seasonal race schedule and

planning running goals is exciting and cross-ing the finish line nothing shy of rewarding.If more time is spent in slippers than runningshoes during the Winter, take it slow.

The couch-to-5K is a popular trainingplan for runners who want to get off thecouch and run 3.1 miles after just a couple of weeks. If looking to run a 5K for the firsttime, simply focus on the distance knowingPB- personal best- will be set up on race day.

As the second or third race is built up, focusmore on time. A 5K is considered the entrylevel distance for road races and the mostbeginner friendly choice if looking to breakinto road racing.

So, how long is a 5K race? It would belike running across a football field 54.68times, running around all four bases of a reg-ulation baseball diamond 45.47 times, run-ning the length of an NBA regulation court174.13 times or running a little less than afourth of the length of Manhattan. A 5K islong enough to be a challenge, but, not so farto be discouraging.

At 3.1 miles, a 5K is a very doable run-ning distance.

Start out easy. Runners shouldn’t expectto start where they left off. Just because fivemiles was run six months ago, does thatmean that can be done right away. Startworkouts slowly with less mileage, less timeand a decrease in intensity. Running is anextremely challenging activity so don’tmake it any harder than necessary whenstarting out. For the first few months, stick

to flat paths or run on a treadmill keeping the

incline low. Wait to incorporate speed, inter-vals or longer workouts. By adding speedsessions and longer workouts too soon,chance of injuries is increased. Build cardio-vascular endurance and gradually increase

the workout length.Warm up and cool down, hydrate and

diet. If the body is eased into each run, bet-ter preparation to sustain effort will keep onegoing. Start and finish every run with threeto five minutes of walking. Now is the per-fect time to start reevaluating the diet andhydration needs. By staying hydrated andeating balanced meals, the energy and stam-ina will conquer any work out.

Go shopping. Running requires very littleequipment. All one really needs is a good

pair running shoes and for women, a sup-portive sports bra. For footwear, visit a localrunning specialty store and get properly fit-ted.

Walk, run-walk, then run. If brand new toregular exercise, start by walking for the firstthree weeks, 30 minutes, several times aweek. Gradually mix in a little running – try60 seconds and build up from there. Soonrunning will be more with walking will beless until none at all.

Take the talk test. Remember to start outeasy. If alone, recite the Pledge of Allegiance a few times. If struggling to getthe words out, the run is too hard.

Mix in the activities most enjoyedIncrease that fitness level while decreasingrepetitive muscle fatigue by cross training.Try yoga, pilates, biking, skating and any-thing to get moving.

Set a personal goal. A dangling carrotkeeps the motivation flowing. Register for alocal 5K road race or aim to run a certainnumber of miles or minutes each month. It’shelpful to find a running partner and keep

one another motivated.

Track progress. Keeping a log is a greatway to see where one has been and whereone is going. Whether online or on paper,document each run. Include time, pace andhow it felt to see what is working.

Now is the time to tie those laces and signup for a local race.

ing $5 each to support WorldAutism Day. The total amount collected

was $150 which will be donated to AutismSpeaks, the world's largest autism science

and advocacy organization. The launch of

their Light It Up Blue campaign began

April 2. It is a unique global initiative to

crisis in support of World Autism

Awareness Day.

Dr. Gina Cinotti, Netcong School

Principal, who organized the event said,“Iwanted to simply bring awareness toAutism and Autism Spectrum Disorders,

as this knowledge helps us understand

others those with the diagnosis. Children

are our future and we need to meet the

needs of all our students.”Autism is a complex neurobiological

disorder that inhibits a person's ability to

communicate and develop social relation-

ships, and is often accompanied by behav-ioral challenges. Autism spectrum disor-

ders are diagnosed in one in 110 children

in the United States, affecting four times

as many boys as girls. The prevalence of

autism increased 57 percent from 2002 to2006. The Centers for Disease Control and

Prevention have called autism a national

public health crisis whose cause and cure

remain unknown.

Autism Speaks is North America's

largest autism science and advocacy

organization. The organization is dedicat-ed to funding research into the causes,

prevention, treatments and a cure for

autism; increasing awareness of autism

In honor of Earth Day,

the students in Mrs.Mancuso’s class in

Hopatcong Borough creat-

ed “Litter Bugs”. Afterlearning about ways to help

and protect the earth thestudents had many ideas to

share. Each student was

asked to bring in “garbage”

from home to help create

his or her creature. The

students used their materi-als from home to create

their very own Litter Bug.

In writing, each student

gave their Litter Bug aname, and then worked towrite a special Earth Day

message from their Litter

Bug. Each student then

had the opportunity to pres-

ent their Litter Bug and itsspecial message while

filming an Earth Day

Commercial.

Hopatcong Students Celebrate Earth Day

Future Teachers Association ran a drive to help the

Hopatcong Pound. Items were collected and

brought recently to the pound. The students also

made cat toys and brought the toys to the pound. The

pound is in desperate need of dog food, cat food, cat litterand blankets. Donations can be dropped off either at the

pound or at the Hopatcong High School in care of Mrs.

Martinez.

Azero tax increase, reducing debt

and maintaining roadways are high

on the list for David Scapicchio’s

campaign as Morris County Freeholder.

Running in the Republican 2015 June 2

Primary for his second three- year term as

freeholder, Scapicchio of Flanders and

Morris County resident for more than 36years, was sworn in to his first three-year

term on the freeholder board on Jan. 4,2013, serving as the board’s deputy director

in 2013 and 2014.

Competing in an all-RepublicanPrimary, Scapicchio joins running mates

Freeholder John Krikus of Washington

Twp., and Deborah Smith, a Denville coun-

cilwoman. The three are competing against

incumbent John Cesaro of Parsippany,

Christine Meyers of Mendham, AngeloTedesco of East Hanover, and Thomas

Mulligan of Rockaway.

With success in keeping all promisesduring his first term, Scapicchio plans to

continue the same course.“When we ran in 2012, we made some

promises,” says Scapicchio during a tele-

phone interview with New View Media.

“We did not raise taxes for three years in a

row. We said we’d reduce debt; we reduceddebt by $300 million. We said we’d pave

roads. We’ve been able to do that without

raising taxes. The plan is the same.”

Scapicchio says “I made promises in

2012 when I first ran; I fulfilled thosepromises. As candidates for political office

we set goals, we promise to make changes,and to do things differently. More often

than not, even with the best of intensions

those promises are hard to keep. During the2012 campaign we made some promises,

and we have succeeded in fulfilling many

of them. Promises made-promises keep.”

No stranger to public service,

Scapicchio served as Mt. Olive mayor from

2006-2011; Mt. Olive Twp. councilman fortwo consecutive terms (1996-2004) in

which he spent two years as council presi-

dent; Mt. Olive Zoning Board of Adjustment; and is a former chair of the

Mt. Olive Republican Committee.At the county level, Scapicchio served

on the Morris County Municipal Utilities

Authority.

He currently chairs the Capital Budget

Review and Facilities Committee, which isin charge of capital programs. In that

capacity, he is involved in a six year pro-

gram, 2015-2021, to enhance the road sur-

facing program. The road surfacing pro-

gram has grown from 17 miles of roadresurfacing a year, prior to 2013, to 34

miles of roadway each year, a much need-ed service based on “severe winters” and

roadway conditions, he says.

“We want to continue that program,”says Scapicchio, adding that there are 284

miles of roadway in Morris County that

need to be maintained.

“We have prioritized infrastructure

improvements, an area most governments

have failed to address,” he says. This yearwe’ve invested $16 million on the county’s

infrastructure.”

Scapicchio mentions a continued courseregarding health insurance, debt and taxes.

Health Insurance cost the county $47million a year, he says, so the freeholder

board eliminated the policy that enabled

freeholders to receive health insurance paid

for by the county tax payers, and also

changed the policy that provided employ-ees lifetime health insurance after 15 years

Perona Farms was thesetting for the NinthAnnual Fashion Show

Fundraiser for the

Hopatcong Women’s Club.This year fashions were pre-sented by Melania’sFashions of Randolph. Asilent auction, gave outnumerous door prizes, andeveryone had lots of fun andgood food!

A special thank you goesout to the Fashion Showcommittee, headed by pastpresident Ellen Buongiorno;local businesses for their

generous donations; and themodels who made all thefashions look terrific.

The HopatcongWoman’s Club is very activein its community, HighlandsDistrict, and the New JerseyState Federation of Women’s Clubs. Some cur-rent interests include:NAMI (National Alliance

of employment.

“The county no longer provides new

employees with lifetime benefits, and all

employees now contribute towards their

health insurance,” he says.The board is also considering a self-

insurance program “which may have the

potential to save the county hundreds of

thousands of dollars,” he adds.Regarding debt, Morris County debt is

at $229 million, down from $259 million

when he came into office.

“By keeping capital spending under

control we have been able to reduce debt by$10 million a year,” says Scapicchio.

Regarding taxes, he says “We said we

would not raise property taxes- we havedelivered three budgets with no tax

increase and we are working hard to deliv-

er a 2016 budget with no tax increase aswell. Our goal is to make county govern-

ment smarter, smaller and more responsive.

“We are reforming health care, paying

down debt, controlling taxes, investing in

roads and bridges and maintaining thecounty’s AAA bond rating,” says

Scapicchio. “That’s good Republican lead-

ership!”

Scapicchio studied at DeVry Institute of

Technology and eventually became a part-

ner in Scapicchio & Sons, a family-owned,high-quality, professional residential con-

struction company in Whippany.

Originally from Livingston, he and his

wife Betsy, married in 1977 and have fourgrown daughters.

Scapicchio says he is re-running for

freeholder because “I enjoy public works,

working with others how we can provide

service in the county and doing it withoutraising taxes. I enjoy working towards that

goal.”

The freeholder board is an electedadministrative body that sets policies for

the operation of all county services. That

includes six county government depart-ments and their divisions, plus authorities,

commissions, boards and study commit-

tees.

Each of the seven freeholders serves as

a liaison to one of those departments and toother areas of county government.

Jersey Education Association. Their grant,

Front Stage, uses drama to boost confi-

dence, self-esteem, and social skills for stu-dents with special needs and non-disabled

peer buddies through a musical production.

While students with disabilities may not

often get the opportunity to shine on stage,

the purpose of Front Stage is to bring stu-

dents out from behind the curtain and into

Teachers Awarded Grant To Bring Kids Into Spotlight the spotlight. This cross-curricular grantaddresses the needs of students with disabil-

ities across multiple grade levels through a

fusion of art and common core state stan-

dards. It also includes students without dis-

abilities who possess leadership skills.The grant will be implemented during

the 2015-2016 and the performance will

take place next May. Grant funding

includes the purchase of a musical produc-

Opening a dresser drawer to find

clothes disorganized and stuffedinside can be frustrating. Bulky

clothes may not seem to fit correctly and

other items can become stuck at the back

of a drawer, making it difficult to close the

drawer properly. Although you may be

tempted to purchase an entirely new dress-er or give up and store items solely in the

closet, try a new tactic. Various organizing

experts advise folding and layering clothes

vertically in drawers to create more space

and keep things neat. An additional benefitto this method of storage is you can more

readily see just what you have in the draw-

er, rather than lifting and looking under-

neath your clothing. Anyone can give thisa try to free up space in their drawers. This

method also works especially well with

children's clothing, giving kids the oppor-

tunity to see their clothes and choose their

own outfits.

Entering the 20th Century, men dom-

inated the business and financial

arena while women fixed or

improved the aliments of their culture and

society. Women also reigned as thedomestic managers of their household and

gave undivided attention to the governance

of the American family. The American

Magazine deemed that Edison’s wife Minawas “the custodian of one of the greatest

geniuses the world has ever known”.

However, she preferred her own title as

“Home Executive”. The last decade of the

19th Century rang in modern technology

for the 21st Century bringing in betterhome living and family life. Thomas

Edison inventions saw purpose to thesehome executives commonly referred to as

the devoted housewife or the lady of the

house. These ultramodern open-mindedwomen entering a new century desired

clean, easier and enjoyable home living.

Thomas Edison appreciated a woman’s

perspective on modern living. He saw this

population as great guiding mentors in his

own life. After all, he was homeschooled

by his mother. There were many milestone

events were Thomas Edison appealed towomen in launching the most innovative

technology of its day. The very first tech

toy was marketed for small girls. TheEdison talking doll was technically the

first home phonograph when it wasreleased to the public in 1890. It was the

first home entertainment phonograph

because, each doll housed an internal

phonograph containing a six second prere-

corded nursery rhyme.

Edison Electric Illuminating Companyof Brooklyn was in operation on Sept. 4,

1882. The electric illuminating system

provided electricity to Pearl Street. It was

now possible for homes and businesses topurchase electric light at a price that couldcompete with gas. The first advertise-

ments on this illuminating technology

were targeted to the lady of the house.

Their ads read: A Flood of Light – A sin-

gle touch brings a flood of light. Another

touch dismisses it. Best artificial light everknown. Displays the home and its treas-

ures at their very best. No exposed flame

to blacken walls and decorations with soot

or vitiate the air – causing ill health, toflare in the wind or be blown out. Pure,

steady, clean, cool, sanitary, safe. Can be

placed anywhere- even in clothes closet.The lamps and fixtures are decorations.

Color, design and situation arranged to suitindividual taste. Is your home Electric

Lighted?

Ironically, while Thomas Edison used

certain dialogue in his ads to influence

women to want his products, it was recent-

ly discovered that his viewpoints on workand the state of genius may have been

influenced by Kate Sanborn (July 11, 1839

- July 9, 1917). Sanborn was a very popu-

lar American author, teacher and lecturerin her time. Followers of Thomas Edisonfeel one of his best quotes was: “Genius is

one percent inspiration, ninety-nine per-

cent perspiration.” This quote parallels to

Kate Sanborn’s message. “Genius is inspi-

ration; Talent is perspiration.” Her reply to

this comparison was “… Of late it has beenwidely quoted, but with no acknowledg-

ment, so I still think it is mine.” This claimwas recorded in the Detroit Journal, as

cited in the Philadelphia newspaper The

Times on Dec 23, 1892 (p.4). So a womanproved to motivate the opinions of another

genius in like thoughts.Visit the Thomas Alva Edison Museum

tions were made - Open Wed. through

He is losing his home because his family is no

longer able to care for him and he needs a new home

urgently. Shaq is a very healthy 11 years old, loves all peo-ple and children and is very submissive with other dogs.

Like all beagles Shaq's favorite activity is walking outside

and smelling all the good things there are to smell, espe-cially in spring. Shaq is hoping more than anything to find

a new home where he can go for walks and be loved and

be a part of a family once again. Shaq is extremely polite,knows basic commands, and is a real love bug. He is smart

and curious and would be happiest in a family where he

would not be alone all day. He is losing a bit of his hear-

ing. Shaq is vaccinated and neutered. If interested in Shaq,

contact the Pet Adoption League at www.palpets.org, call973-584-0095 or email us at [email protected].
