EMS kicks offannual fund drive
BY HEATHER FIOREThe Montgomery Sun
The Montgomery EMS kickedoff its 2013 Fund Drive recentlywith its first donation from MayorEd Trzaska.
This is the second year Trzaskahas helped mark the start of theFund Drive, which is MEMSbiggest annual fundraiser.
The Montgomery EMS squadplays a key role in our publichealth and safety services, hesaid. They have been protectingour community for 40 years, andtheir professionalism and expert-ise are second to none. During therelief effort for Hurricane Sandy,the squad went above and beyondand made a difference in count-less ways.
MEMS is an all-volunteer or-ganization comprised of mostlylocal residents that provides serv-ices to the township 24 hours aday, 365 days a year. Last year, it
donated more than 37,000 hours ofservice to the community.
The squads annual budget for2013 is $144,000, which is mostlypaid for through donations. Thisyear, 24 percent of the budget isbeing put in the squads CapitalFund, which is used for ambu-lance replacement and buildingupkeep.
We purchase our own ambu-lances and are planning to pur-
chase a new one this year, saidJohn Connacher, president ofMEMS.
If the town had to take overEMS services provided by MEMS,it would cost the taxpayers ofMontgomery more than $1 mil-lion.
Our annual Fund Drive makesup the majority of MEMS budg-et, Connacher said. The fundswe receive go toward maintainingand replacing equipment, sup-plies and vehicles, as well as thecontinuous training of our crews.
Residents can expect MEMSannual Fund Drive flyer to arrivein the mail within the next weekor so. All donations are tax-de-ductible.
On April 21, MEMS held anoth-er one of its annual fundraisers,the All-You-Can-Eat PancakeBreakfast, at its building in BelleMead. More than 150 people at-tended the event, including ahandful of Montgomery High
School students who assisted thesquad members with preparationand serving.
Our EMS squad is one of thebest around, and everyone inMontgomery should be proud ofthem, Connacher said. I urge allresidents and businesses of ourtownship to support MEMS inany way they can."

Mayor, deputy mayorrunning unopposed
The Montgomery TownshipRepublican Organization unani-mously endorsed Mayor Ed Trza-ska and Deputy Mayor PatriciaGraham for the two seats on thetownship committee that will becontested in November. Both arerunning for reelection and a sec-ond three-year term. Trzaska andGraham filed petitions with themunicipal clerk and will beplaced on the ballot under the slo-gan Somerset County Republi-
can Organization along with theother county-endorsed candi-dates, including Gov. ChrisChristie.
As of now, Trzaska and Gra-ham are running unopposedsince no local Democrat filed peti-tions by the primary electiondeadline.
"I am surprised that Pat and Iare currently running unop-
posed, but this is likely indicativeof the quality of work we aredoing, Trzaska said. Over thepast few years, we have had nu-merous successes doing morewith less, preserving open space,making township meetings moreaccessible to the public, and im-proving the long-term health ofMontgomery. Overall, feedbackfrom residents has been very pos-itive and they like the directionwe are heading.
We have worked hard to makeends meet and improve the finan-cial health of Montgomery, Gra-ham said. Every budget that wehave passed has come in wellunder Gov. Christies property taxcap law and we are spending lessthan 2005 levels. Who else can saythat? In addition, last year weachieved a perfect score from the

Money is always an issue.
Families are constantly
pinching pennies, looking
for ways to reduce expenses. School
districts and municipal governments
are doing the same, hoping to help
lower, or at least stabilize, the amount
of tax money they require to live intown.
The challenge has always been, and
will continue to be, how these entities
can control costs while still providing
high-quality services that their resi-
dents demand. The state of New Jersey
certainly isnt helping much through
aid, and its unlikely that will change
any time soon.
So the onus is on the local municipal
governments and school districts to get
creative: Not only what can be cut from
expenses, but what can be added to rev-
enues.
For awhile now, the idea of private
sponsorship of public facilities has
been tossed around. Selling banners to
local businesses at Little League fields,
or having that business sponsor a
youth sports team has been the norm
for quite some time. And no one seems
to have a problem with that.
But throw in the possibility of sell-
ing naming rights at a field or, worse
even, a building or complex, and excep-
tions start to arise. When is enough
enough? the detractors ask. Does
everything need to be sold?
We agree that there is a fine line be-
tween tasteful, effective sponsorship
and over-the-line, banner-on-every-
inch-of-the-field advertising. Think
Major League 2 here (for all you
sports movie fans).
Moorestown Township recently ap-
proved an ordinance on first reading
that, if passed, would establish an offi-
cial sponsorship program. Officials
say that the program would increase
township revenues and help with im-
provements and maintenance of recre-
ational fields.
Annual banner and sponsorship op-
portunities will be available, with nam-ing rights being offered as five- or 10-
year deals, with minimum bids of
$5,000 and $35,000, respectively. To en-
sure proper material, businesses wont
be allowed to advertise the sale of alco-
hol, tobacco, adult-oriented material or
other items not consistent with pro-
moting the youth sports program and
the positive image of the township.
We applaud Moorestown Township
for its work in this regard, and we urge
other townships to follow suit.
If done correctly, sponsorships and
naming rights can provide a huge in-
flux of cash to youth sports leagues, to
school districts and to municipal gov-
ernments.
This field brought to you by...Its time for governments, schools to utilize sponsorships at fields, buildings
Too much advertising?
Do you agree that sponsorship is a goodidea? Or do you think that enough isenough? Let us know your thoughtsthrough a letter to the editor.
Readers opposes townshipinvolvement with rodeos
In past years, Montgomery Townshipwas involved in public rodeos. Now, anoth-er one is scheduled.
We strongly oppose this event. Rodeosare exploitive and abusive of animals.They play into the human appetite for
power and control over other species anddesensitize both adults and children to thefact that animals are sentient beings, capa-ble of emotional as well as physical suffer-ing.
Rodeos contribute to a callous attitude
toward animals in our society. It is wellknown that the cycle of domestic violenceoften begins with animal abuse in child-hood, and therefore, we must set an exam-ple for our children of valuing and nurtur-ing all beings.
It is greatly disturbing that some peoplefind a rodeo entertaining and that theyenjoy an event that causes suffering andglorifies those who excel in it. Unfortunate-
ly, mostly every circus deserves the samecriticism.
Even if the charitable cause is worth-while, we are sure the township can comeup with a more humane alternative. Partic-ipation in and support for this unethical
treatment of animals is cruel and uncivi-lized. Please put an end to this annualevent and facilitate fundraisers we can allbe proud to contribute to.

at committee meetingBY HEATHER FIOREThe Montgomery SunThe Montgomery High School
varsity cheerleading team wasrecognized for its outstanding ef-forts this past season with aproclamation from the townshipcommittee.
The 20 cheerleaders were hon-ored at the March 21 committeemeeting, where township offi-
cials, proud parents and their twocoaches, Tiffany Riley and AmyNowak, congratulated them ontheir accomplishments.
"We are incredibly proud ofthis team, especially since theywere such a young team," Rileysaid. "We had 17 seniors that leftlast year, so we weren't reallysure how this team was going tocome together, but they reallysurprised us."
For the first time in MHS his-tory, the team won the title of
Somerset County cheerleadingchampions.
Along with tackling that feat,the cheerleaders also placed sixthin the Universal Cheerleaders As-
sociation Empire State Regionalsand competed in the NationalHigh School Cheerleading Cham-pionship in Orlando, Fla.
"We're looking forward to thepotential this team has movingforward because of how greatthey were this year and howgreat they've become," Riley said.
But, the praise didn't stopthere. The township committeealso commended the squad for its
charitable efforts.For the third year in a row, thesquad hosted an event known asCougars for Cure, which the girlsrenamed this year to CougarsTackling Cancer.
The event raises funds for theSteeplechase Cancer Center atthe Somerset Medical Center.
The girls turned the MHS sta-dium pink to promote breast can-cer awareness throughout themonth of October and raised$2,365 this year, which was for-
mally donated to the SMC at thecommittee meeting.
Donna Castronovo, director ofspecial events for the SomersetMedical Center Foundation, was
present to accept the donationand said the team has raised al-most $8,000 for the center overthe last three years.
"Montgomery is a really spe-cial place because all of the vol-unteers, especially our youngerresidents who go above and be-yond," Mayor Ed Trzaska said."The MHS cheerleading team hasaccomplished so much this year,both on the competition stage
and through their charitable en-deavors.Their teamwork and dedica-
tion to our community are ad-mirable, and all of Montgomeryis proud of them."

are working on several signifi-cant opportunities to preservemore open space. We are also re-designing the entire organiza-tional structure at town hall andseeking to improve the retail dis-trict in town by partnering withour local business community. I
would like to see these initiativesthrough to completion.

upset?Your editorial concluded that
we get what we pay for and thefacts you use to support that con-clusion appear to have been se-lected carefully, but were notcomplete.
A quick review of the dataavailable online from the N.J. De-partment of Education revealsthat more than half of the cost tooperate the city schools in NewJersey is provided by the state.
These funds are ultimately de-rived disproportionately from thesuburban and rural taxpayers.
In many cases, the cost perpupil to operate city schools ismuch higher than the cost to op-erate the Montgomery Schools,but the results in city schools are
very disappointing. The schoolsthat are failing in the state aremostly in the cities.
This leads to the conclusionthat we are not getting what weare paying for where the cityschools are concerned. I wouldchallenge the view that spendingmore on education will alwaysproduce better students, gradesor education.
Parochial school costs per stu-dent are widely believed to be
much lower than public schoolcosts yet the parochial schoolsachieve better results, even in the
cities.In my view, the requirement
for our public schools to be thor-ough and efficient is not beingmet throughout the state.
You accurately recognize thatsome families that no longer haveschool-age children move out ofthe state to avoid the high taxesthat support the school systems.This is not always an option formany of our seniors who haveties to the community, were born,raised, worked and retired herebut now find they are unable topay their property tax bill that ismore than two-thirds school tax.
While property tax relief may
be in sight in the near future, itwill not rectify this problem.Denis Cummings

Princeton Fitness Centerrecognized for mentoring
More than two years ago, thePrinceton Fitness and Wellness
Center in Princeton was one ofthe first sites to collaborate withMontgomery High Schools Spe-cial Education Work Study Pro-gram, providing local studentswith special needs an opportuni-ty to develop real life workplaceand social skills to assist them incareer preparation. The centermentored the students and pro-vided a job coach to assist them invarious duties as they rotatedthrough many different areas of
the facility, affording them train-ing in an array of skills based ontheir ability levels. ManagerDanielle McGrath, along withpast manager Katie Pettit, provid-ed an atmosphere for learning
job-related skills to many stu-dents over the past two schoolyears.
Students attended these workstudy placements as part of
their regular school day, receiv-ing credit and being evaluated for
the work performed. While en-gaged at the site, students worethe appropriate uniforms andlearned to keep track of theirtime using both a time clock sys-tem and written time sheets. Thementors provided opportunitiesalong the way for the students toreflect on their duties, experi-ences and the job skills theylearned.
The center also supported theCommunity Based Instruction ef-
forts of the school having the stu-dents visit a few times a month towork out and learn about fitnessand community leisure time asanother component of theirschool day. Trevor Deysher, atrainer at the center, gave up hisown free time to assist the stu-dents with this endeavor as partof this au gratis agreement.

Bridgewater, N.J.,February 28, 2013 -
Merrill Lynch today
announced that Fi-
nancial Advisor El-
liott Kugel has been
nationally recognized
among the top advi-
sors in New Jersey by
Barrons magazine in
its annual Americas
Top 1,000 Advisors:
State-by-State list,
published on Febru-
ary 18, 2013 based on
2012 information. Intotal, 293 Merrill
Lynch advisors are in-
cluded on this year's
list, the most advisors
for any firm.
Advisors considered
for Barrons Ameri-
cas Top 1,000 Advi-
sors: State-by-State
ranking have a mini-
mum of seven years
financial services ex-
perience and have
been employed at their
current firm for atleast one year. Numer-
ous quantitative and
qualitative measures
(including assets man-
aged, revenue pro-
duced and quality of
practice) determine
the financial advisor
rankings. Barrons
does not receive com-
pensation from advi-
sors, participating
firms and their affili-
ates, or the media in
exchange for rank-ings.
We believe Elliots
inclusion on Barrons
annual America's Top
1,000 Advisors: State-
by-State list is highly
merited and under-
scores his commit-
ment to developing
strong relationships
with clients. Barrons
recognition of so
many Merrill Lynch

mitment to providingclients with outstand-
ing talent and top-
quality service to help
them achieve their fi-
nancial goals, said
Keith Henry, resident
director.

Lynch's Bridgewater
