    Standing on a small table atFleetwood Elementary Schoollast Thursday were nearly adozen children’s historical books.The faces of Martin Luther KingJr., Helen Keller, Frederick Dou-glass, Theodore Roosevelt andothers shined brightly on the cov-ers.

    Students in grades as young askindergarten could identify thesefamous figures and knew aboutthe many important things theydid in their lives. The studentsowe part of their knowledge tothe author of those books, DoreenRappaport.

    Last Thursday, students atFleetwood got to meet Rappaport,an award-winning children’sbook author, as part of a specialevent at the school.

    Rappaport has nearly writtenenough books to have her own

    section at Fleetwood’s library. Anative of New York City, Rappa-port has had 50 books publishedincluding biographies, books onhistorical events and historicalfiction for ages 5 to 17. Rappaporthas won multiple awards for herbook “Martin’s Big Words: TheLife of Martin Luther King Jr.”

    Each year, Fleetwood brings ina children’s author or illustrator

    who helped create the books theyread over the course of the year.Media specialist Tiffany Andrayoreached out to Rappaport becauseshe felt her books had connectedwith the students in a way no

    other history book could do.“Her books are very accessible

    for the kids,” Andrayo said.Rappaport said she has spoken

    to students of all ages at count-less schools during her career.

    She recalls when she began towrite at the age of 6 and informedthe students at Fleetwood theycould do the same.

    “It motivates the kids and theylearn,” Rappaport said of her

    visit. “Even in kindergarten andfirst grade, they learned how astory is made. And it’s sophisti-cated.”

    Many of Rappaport’s books re-volve around civil rights, some-thing Rappaport is very passion-ate about.

    She has written books detail-ing stories about slavery, the CivilWar and the Civil Rights rallies inthe 1950s and 1960s.

    For each story, Rappaport ex-plained she has to do months of reading and research before shestarts writing. When explainingher book about Martin LutherKing Jr., she read dozens of biog-raphies, history books and two of King’s autobiographies beforeshe wrote a single word.

    “There’s a lot of pieces to putthese stories together,” Rappaportsaid.

    Rappaport’s stories aren’t justfact-based. The books also includedirect quotes from the people in

    the story to paint a realistic pic-ture for the reader. Andrayo saidher books have been the perfectway to introduce direct quotes tothe young readers at Fleetwood.

    Rappaport’s goal in speakingwith the students was to tell themthey could also write like she hasdone for many years. She has al-

    ur legislators seem to have

    run out of ideas to get New

    Jersey back on track finan-

    cially. So, instead of brainstorming

    new ways to give our economy a boost,

    they are instead considering a re-hash

    of the same old thing – casinos.

    Lawmakers are considering putting

    a ballot on this November’s elections

    that would ask voters whether they

    support expanding the state’s laws to

    allow casino gaming in parts of the

    state outside Atlantic City. That would

    potentially allow two new casinos to

    be built in North Jersey – a proposed

    Hard Rock casino at the Meadowlands

    race track and another casino adja-

    cent to the Liberty National Golf Club

    in Jersey City.

    The $1 billion Hard Rock casino

    could be ready by next summer or fall

    2016, officials said, and would create

    an estimated 2,360 jobs during con-

    struction and another 5,000 perma-

    nent jobs. The Jersey City casino

    would presumably create similar

    numbers.

    We love numbers like that, but the

    question is: Would the North Jersey

    casinos be sustainable long term? If 

    you look at just Atlantic City, the an-

    swer would be a quick “no.” Four casi-

    nos closed in the last year alone, and,

    overall, casino revenue slips every

    year.

    But when you take a closer look at

    the numbers, there are plenty of posi-

    tives. If you take out the numbers for

    the four casinos that closed, revenue

    climbed about 8 percent in Atlantic

    City in 2014 compared to 2013.

    The Borgata, Atlantic City’s shining

    star, continues to do well. Its revenue

    of $687 million in 2014 increased 10.7

    percent year over year, and was almost

    double that of the next closest casino – 

    Harrah’s, at $365.3 million.

    This proves that if a casino is done

    right – with beautiful hotel rooms, a

    top-notch spa and salon, a clean bright

    look, five-star restaurants and offer-

    ings other than just gambling – casi-

    nos can still be successful.

    South Jerseyans might be quick to

    say that casinos in North Jersey would

    further sink Atlantic City. But we tend

    to agree with the backers of the ballot

    who say it’s not North Jersey versus

    South Jersey; it’s North Jersey versus

    New York.

    If we can build casinos in North Jer-

    sey that offer everything that a place

    such as the Borgata or Harrah’s in At-

    lantic City offers, then our state is like-

    ly to attract these people from the

    North who are traveling to casinos in

    other states instead of Atlantic City.

    And since part of the revenue from

    these proposed casinos would go to

    help Atlantic City, it could be a win-

    win for everybody.

    in our opinion

    More casinos? This could workBuilding casinos in North Jersey could be a good idea, if done properly

    When he began attending Rut-gers University in the fall of 2011,Will Campbell, a Mt. Laurel na-tive and graduate of Lenape HighSchool, was hoping to pursue a

    bachelor’s degree in biology.At the time, he never would’veimagined he’d be giving a speechat the commencement for theschool of management and laborrelations.

    However, more than four yearslater in May, Campbell g raduatedfrom Rutgers with a master’s de-gree in labor and employment re-lations just two years after

    switching from a biology to alabor studies major.

    Campbell was one of a few stu-dents chosen to give a speech atthe graduation ceremony. Some of Campbell’s peers may haveknown him as a passionate stu-dent preparing to go to law

    school. Others may have knownhim from his community out-reach initiative and philanthrop-ic pursuits for the Omicron AlphaChapter of the Kappa Delta Rhofraternity.

    However, it wasn’t until gradu-ation when many learned aboutCampbell’s journey into labor

    studies and how one of his for-mer teachers from Lenape HighSchool played a big role in a life-changing decision.

    Searching for his true passionIn the spring of 2013, Campbell

    Cherry Hill resident ChrisBrookover has been around com-petitive swimming for more than30 years, but he has never been asexcited as he’s been in the pastmonth.

    The YMCA of Burlington andCamden Counties in Mt. Laurelrecently hired Brookover to takeover as competitive swim directorand head coach for its swimming

    team. Brookover will lead theswim team at all age levels from 6to 18 years old.

    The opportunity was too goodfor Brookover to pass up. Whilehe has coached individual teamsat various levels in the past, thisis the first time he’s been incharge of an entire organization.

    “It is a very unique and out-standing opportunity to kind of build a team here,” Brookoversaid. “I absolutely relish it. I al-ways wanted to see what I could

    do as far as being a head coach of the team.”

    Brookover has been a swim-ming coach since college, havingbeen hired as an assistant coachat the University of Wyoming,where he competed in the early1980s. After coaching as a fifth-year assistant there in 1985,Brookover moved on to ColoradoState to coach the women’s team.

    Brookover said coaching wassomething he enjoyed from the

    very beginning.“I felt really comfortable coach-ing,” he said. “It seemed very nat-ural to me. To help other athletestrying to achieve their goalsmeant a lot.”

    Brookover moved to South Jer-sey in 1992 and began coaching atthe Jersey Wahoos Swim Club inMt. Laurel shortly after. For morethan two decades, Brookovercoached kids of various ages andskill levels. Some of the specificareas he focused on included

    proper stroke mechanics, drylandtraining and meet preparation.

    Tim Kerrihard, president andCEO of the YMCA of Burlingtonand Camden Counties, saidBrookover’s extensive experience

    made him perfect for the job.

    “(Chris’) extensive backgroundin competitive swimming willhelp us take our competitiveswim program to the next level,”Kerrihard said.

    Brookover not only taughtdozens of area children to be bet-ter competitive swimmers, buthas also seen his own childrenmake a name for themselves inswimming. His daughter JaimieLynn was a standout swimmerfor Cherry Hill East and just com-

    pleted her sophomore seasonwith the University of Connecti-cut. His son Duncan is finishingup his junior year at Cherry HillEast and helped the Cougars to astate championship in 2015. Hisyoungest son Jackson also swimsat the club level and won the 50-meter backstroke at Cherry Bowl2014 for the 11- and 12-year-old di-vision.

    “It’s really been a big part of our lives,” Brookover said. “It’sturned out that way. Never would

    have dreamed it 20 years ago.”Brookover is preparing to

    make his mark on the YMCA’sswim team in the coming weeks.Tryouts were scheduled to begin

    on Monday,

    June 8 andcontinuethrough theend of themonth. TheYMCA’s sea-son runs fromLabor Daythrough Me-morial Dayand includesmeets againstother New Jersey and Pennsylva-

    nia YMCAs as well as other topswim clubs from across the state.The team will also compete in theYMCA nationals in North Caroli-na.

    “The support and the organiza-tion of the YMCA toward compet-itive swimming is unparalleled,”Brookover said. “They really helpyou to build a team and compete.”

    Brookover is expecting histeam at all age levels to be a mix of returning and new swimmers tothe program. He is most looking

    forward to tryouts and workingwith a new group of swimmers.

    “It’s going to be great to see alot of people and take a look atwhat we had,” he said.

    ‘It is our responsibility, ourduty, to lift up not just

    ourselves, but those around us.’

    Campbell said his advisor toldhim shortly before graduation hewas one of the students chosen tomake a speech at the school of management and labor relations’graduation ceremony on May 16.

    When he sat down to write thespeech, Campbell wanted to

    honor Lopez, but also wanted toleave his fellow graduates withsome words to live by.

    “When I first sat down to writeit, it was a process,” Campbellsaid. “I really didn’t know how Iwanted to approach it.”

    “From early on, I was definite-ly thinking about that email hesent me two years ago,” he contin-ued. “It was an important part of my intellectual growth.”

    Campbell’s speech was a two-fold message for his peers. First,

    he asked the other graduates tothink of the people like Lopez intheir own lives – the people whohelped them get to where theywere on graduation day.

    “A lot of people just think theydid it themselves,” Campbell said.“We have teachers, we have par-ents, we have friends who supportus along the way.”

    Secondly, Campbell encour-aged his peers to make an impacton others just as Lopez has im-pacted him.

    “Now that we have finished oneof the most important steps in

    our journeys, it is up to us to be-come the next generation of men-tors and advocates,” Campbellsaid in his speech. “Our achieve-

    ment has become part of the suc-cess of those who picked us upwhen we were down. We can onlymeasure ourselves to the samestandard. It is our responsibility,our duty, to lift up not just our-selves, but those around us.”

    Lopez and Campbell hadn’tbeen in contact since their emailexchange in 2013. After complet-ing his speech, Campbell decidedto reach out to Lopez again.

    “After I finished the speech, I

    wanted to let him know he was animportant part to where I am,”Campbell said.

    “Will replied to the email I senthim two years ago with a brief email telling me how much myemail meant to him and how hehad followed his dream, was nowgraduating and giving a speechthat he wanted my thoughts on,”Lopez said. “I was shocked thathe had kept that email for twoyears.”

    When Lopez read the speech

    and discovered how big of a rolehe played in Campbell’s collegecareer, he was touched.

    “I was at a loss for words,”Lopez said. “I was blown awaythat he referenced me and how Iinspired him in his speech andthat he urged his fellow graduatesto find their inspiration and fol-low their dreams.”

    Lopez told Campbell after read-ing the speech, the impact he hasmade has validated his choice toteach.

    “I may have helped him findhis way, but I will be forever grate-

    ful to Will for reminding me thatwhat we do as teachers and coach-es really does make a difference,”Lopez said.

    Moving forward,making an impact

    Campbell’s college journey isfar from over. He is planning to at-tend law school at Rutgers-Newark in the fall. He hopes toone day have a law career protect-ing unions and their employees.He already has some law experi-ence, having worked as a legal ad-ministrator at Vella, Singer and

    Martinez law firm in Metuchen.“I am very interested in laborlaw and employment law,” hesaid. “This is something that doescall to me, and it’s absolutelysomething I want to do.”

    Campbell said he will alwayslook to reach out to others as hemoves forward into law schooland eventually a career. He wantsto make an impact on others thesame way Lopez made an impacton him.

    Meanwhile, Lopez is continu-

    ing to enjoy his job teaching atLenape and now realizes the im-pact he has made.

    He said Campbell’s story isproof of the difference teacherscan make on their students, evenafter they move on to college andtheir career.

    “Teaching is not about the pay-check or summers off,” Lopezsaid. “It is about making a differ-ence.

    “Will made me realize that byfollowing my dreams, I made adifference in his life and maybeothers before him.”

    SPEECHContinued from page 10

    ready made an impact on stu-dents across the country.

    “In Utah once, I worked with agirl on a story,” she said. “This

    was back in the day before email.We went back and forth as shewas revising it. I worked with herfor about a year. Eight years later,I went back to Utah to give a talkat Brigham Young University.

    This young woman came up to meand said ‘Ms. Rappaport, do youremember me?’ I knew it washer.”

    Rappaport said she had in-spired the girl to chase herdreams of becoming a writer. Shehopes she also left the Fleetwoodstudents with a touch of inspira-tion.

    “All of you are the future, andwe are counting on you to dogreat things,” Rappaport said tothe students.
