accompanied by a “rent

The foundation closedthe station on Nov. 6, 2014,

The plan is to create the

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.

The station, right on the Greenway and
Lake Hopatcong, owes its existence as the
largest lake in NJ to the creation of the

According to the NJTPA website:
“NJTPA formed the working group, tobring stakeholders together to coordinate
current and future plans for transportationresources.”

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.

strawberries and bring them back to thechurch and clean them up. Church mem-
bers take home containers of strawberries
and make [everything] from yummy

they can come inside to see our attic treas-
ures area where you can find that certainlittle or big something that you have been
looking for.”

offer this year and at 25 cents a book, that’s
[a] pretty good bargain].”

Annual Strawberry Festival For Strawberry Lovers And Others
cheted doilies, bejeweled items, silver jew-
elry, crystal and more.
Zaremba said, “The festival’s proceedsbenefit the church by allowing us to con-
tinue our community outreach programs
such as hosting Interfaith Hospitality,
which provides a temporary home and
food for homeless families in that pro-
gram. Also, there are two Alcoholics

as well as two Girl Scout troops. There area variety of other programs that benefit

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.

Netcong School staff participated in
wearing blue to work and donat-
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
help raise awareness and shine a brightlight on autism as a growing public health
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
spectrum disorders; and advocating for theneeds of individuals with autism and their
families. For more information, visit

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.

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

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.

a $5,000 Hipp Grant funded by the New
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-
tion license, a field trip to a local children's
theater, materials for props and costumes,and t-shirts for all participants. The teach-

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
