Note From The Editor

E

very month we thoroughly enjoy picking out our front covers of Community Magazine. This month, we thought we would do something synonymous to the month of August – which is the poppy flower. The poppy is the birth flower of August babies – and some of the things it represents are beauty, strength of character, love and family. A true example of strength of character is the Marines 60th Anniversary of 6th Motor Transport Battalion. The Battalion has gone through many changes in its history yet remains strong, check them out on page 64. Find out how a love of animals as a young child led up to a position as NJ Director of The Humane Society of the United States, who lives right here in Colts Neck – read this story on page 56.

Our children will be going back to school sooner than you think, and we thought we would give you some kid-friendly restaurants to hit up for the remaining of their summer vacation that they will enjoy. Hulafrog has scouted out local restaurants that will welcome your little ones with open arms and let you and your other half enjoy a night out, good food, and even an adult beverage or two, choose your next dinner out on page 20.

Every month we like to spotlight our locals, and this month we interviewed Pat Light, a Monmouth County native, who is living his dream. If you don’t follow baseball, you might not know that this young twenty-something recently was drafted to the Boston Red Sox. Check out our interview with Pat on page 28.

As families enjoy the last few trips to the beach, attend or host barbecues, and finish up their summer reading, the stores are displaying school clothes and supplies, and the college-bound are doing some last minute shopping. Community Magazine will continue to be your go-to publication to find those end-of-summer events to attend with your family, friends and neighbors, as well as let you in on what is upcoming for early fall.

Rapid All™ Cleaning Products Boast the Smallest “Carbon Footprint” In the Industry “A clean, fresh smelling home may actually be bad for your health depending on what type of cleaning products you use.”

A clean, fresh-smelling home may actually be bad for your health, depending on what type of cleaning products you use. Recent research suggests that exposure to cleaning products that contain a certain volatile organic compound (VOC) called 1,4 dicholorobenzene (1,4 DCB), can reduce lung function by 4 percent. Another study found that the use of spray household chemical cleaners could increase the risk of developing asthma by nearly 50 percent.

according to the study, which appeared in Environmental Health Perspectives. Benzene and acetone are two commonly used VOCs. The volatile organic compound known as 1,4 DCB is the chemical that gives mothballs their distinctive odor. It’s also found in room deodorizers, insecticides and in urinal blocks.

Rapid All™ multipurpose industrial and commercial cleaner is ZERO VOC, all-natural, biodegradable, ph neutral cleaner that boasts the smallest “carbon footprint” in the industry. Its blend of naturally occurring microorganisms & enzymes, combined with all-natural patented tree-based surfactant, breaks down and eliminates organic materials such as: Fats; Grease; Oil & Synthetics; Heavy Dirt; and Grime.

George Estephan, President, Non-Slip Safety Solutions NJ has introduced this unique, environmentally safe and effective industrial cleaner to our local marinas, eateries, offices and schools. Rapid All™ is strong enough to clean the exterior and interior of a boat, and gentle enough to clean the stainless steel in your kitchen. Meeting top environmental standards and certifications, this all-purpose cleaner is totally biodegradable – actually beneficial to the environment – and eliminates hazardous crossmixing of chemicals.

VOCs are found in cleaning products, paints, tobacco smoke and other household chemicals,

The study suggests that, “For people with asthma, and even those without, it’s a good idea

to avoid harsh chemicals.” Always reach for unscented eco-friendly cleaning products.

Rapid All™ is 100% organic, safe, harmless to humans and animals, can be used to clean any hard surface, Marble, Granite, Ceramic, Grout, Wood, Stainless Steel, Brass, Chrome, Glass, Vinyl, Carpet, Leather, Rubber, Painted surfaces, and so much more. Kills and controls animal waste. Controls and suppresses toilet and bathroom odors. Safely degrades and detoxifies septic system waste, and is film and residue free.

With a product like Rapid All™ readily available in our community, why use anything else?

Byron Thomashow, MD, professor of medicine at Columbia University Medical Center in New York City said, Oven cleaners, spray polish, and other household cleansers -- especially those that contain bleach or ammonia -- can be very irritating. “Anything that gives off fumes can cause problems -- bathroom cleaning products, in particular.”

Land Rover Monmouth

Celebrates

25 Years

“T

wenty-five years,” said Rich Williams, Centre Manager of Land Rover Monmouth and Chief Operating Officer of the Schneider+Nelson Auto Group, “is, for us, a very happy and proud milestone. And, in 2012, our 25th year in the business of offering, what the world knows as, ‘the best 4x4 by far’ is something we intend to celebrate.”

Originally, when the doors were opened in 1987 by owners Phil Schneider and Jerry Nelson, Land Rover Monmouth was situated in West Long Branch, NJ. Not long after opening, with their business expanding and public interest in SUVs growing by leaps and bounds, they decided to build a dedicated Land Rover Centre with its own specialized, permanent demonstration ‘Rocks Course’ area for test drives and demos.

Today, Land Rover Monmouth, now located in Ocean Township, NJ, just north of the Asbury Park Circle on Highway 35, is the premiere destination for Land Rover owners working, living and playing on the Jersey shore. And, the Centre is a convenient drive for most in the greater tri-state, New York metropolitan area.

This dedicated, full-service, Land Rover Adventure Centre truly encompasses a comprehensive client experience. The facility houses the sales, parts and service departments as well as a very well-stocked Land Rover GEAR shop.

Serving Monmouth & Ocean Counties “Over the years, many of our clients have become friends, often just stopping by for a cup of coffee and a chat about one of their favorite topics—Land Rovers. We really DO establish great long-term relationships with our clients,” continued Williams.

“Absolutely,” injected Cliff Neubart, General Sales Manager. “We at Land Rover Monmouth, our Sales Guides, and really our entire staff, strive to establish life-long relationships as befits the Land Rover Way,” said Neubart.

“Indeed,” said Bruce Lavorgna, LRM’s Parts Manager. “People, our clients, know and appreciate that we’ll go that extra yard

to be sure they’re taken care of completely.

We treat our customers the way we would like to be treated, as individuals.”

“I’m always happy to see a long-time client when they stop by,” commented Larry Campbell, Service Manager. “It’s all about relationships,” concluded Campbell.

When asked as to plans for celebrating their milestone 25th anniversary year, Rich Williams said simply, “We’ve got a lot of exciting plans in the works. Folks should keep an eye open for some exciting things that’ll be happening here at our Centre this year,” said Williams.

They keep the dance floor busy throughout the evening with both experienced country dancers, and those enthusiastic to learn the steps.

For reservations, information, sponsorship opportunities, and program listings, please contact event chai, Elissa Cahill at elissacahill@gmail.com. All proceeds are committed to the preservation, protection, restoration and maintenance of Holmdel’s open spaces and beautiful places – like the Gray Star Barn.

This event is sponsored by the Board of Trustees of Friends of Holmdel Open Space (FOHOS), a non-profit fundraising organization formed to assist preservation of open land in Holmdel. FOHOS continues to work with the Monmouth County Conservation Foundation, along with Holmdel Township Committee to help raise funds to purchase farmland, stream corridors, woodlands and fields that can be used for both active and passive recreation. In the past FOHOS raised monies to preserve the 416 acre property formerly known as the Chase Tract and was instrumental in acquiring the Bachstadt property in northern Holmdel. Financial contributions to FOHOS can be made payable to Friends of Holmdel Open Space, and mailed to 12 Indian Creek Road, Holmdel, NJ 07733. For more information, you can visit fohos.org.

Bayonet Farm is a 230-acre estate that includes farmland, historic buildings and barns. It’s nestled amongst scenic woodlands and open meadows in Holmdel. This magnificent property was acquired by Holmdel Township in the early 1990’s through a purchase with Green Acres funding and a generous donation by a long-time resident Laura Harding. Part of the house dates back to over 200 years ago and the land titles go back to the original patent of 1677. Laura Harding purchased the farm in1936 and made major Colonial Revival renovations, converting the house into a country estate. During the renovation, she discovered a small bayonet embedded in a chimney, thus the name “Bayonet Farm.”

Dearborn Market Adds a Little Magic to the Summer STORY SUSAN MURPHY

D

earborn Market offered a Fairy Garden Workshop for children on July 18 in their new Dominick Luccarelli Children’s Garden. Pre-registration was required for the two sessions held from 10:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. and 12:00 p.m. to 1:00 p.m., and children needed the accompaniment of an adult.

Despite the scorching temperatures, over 30 children attended and were coached by Dearborn’s Associates Geri, Arleen, and Jonathan in the creation of a magical fairyland garden. Each child received a large round planter, five plants and one tree shrub of their choosing, as well as a container for a “swimming pool” for their prospective fairies, a glazing ball and tiny fairy figurine. Parents assisted their little ones and seemed to enjoy the project just as much.

Everyone in attendance was grateful for the chilled water and boxed juices supplied by Dearborn during the workshop.

Swim.

Bike.

Run. Locals Compete in Tough Kids Triathlon

G

race Wilson, age 9 and Ethan Wilson, age 7 – both Colts Neck residents - recently competed in the Tough Kids Triathlon at Cheesequake Park on June 23. It was their first triathlon – which is such a big accomplishment after training, weeks of working hard, and not to mention their age! The triathlon for their age group (7-10 year olds), consisted of a 100 yard swim, 2.5 mile bike and .5 mile run – following are each of their perspectives on their journey. Community Magazine thought you should hear from our communities’ future authors!

Grace Wilson

T

he night before my triathlon was nerve wracking! My hands were shivering like a hamster’s whiskers! I was trying to stop my heart from skipping a beat. My brother, Ethan, was sick and we were not sure if he was going to be able to complete the race. I wondered if he was too sick to race and worried that I would have to do the event by myself. We had trained together and if he was doing it too, I would feel better and less nervous.

I was nervous but I was also excited to be doing a triathlon. I knew it would make my mom proud. I was alone in my room so I felt it was okay to pray. I said out loud, “Dear God, I hope I am in good shape for tomorrow.” I felt a little better so I closed my eyes and went to sleep dreaming about the triathlon. Before I knew it, my mom was waking me up.

It felt like it took two minutes to get there. My mom took my bike off the back of the car. My bike rumbled over the street as I walked it to the grass. My mom told me how to set my things up in the transition area. My heart was beating so hard that it felt like it would pop out of my chest as they announced “7-10 year olds line up at the lake!” I was about to start my first triathlon.

“Three-two-one-GO!” I ran into the lake like there was no tomorrow. As soon as I couldn’t touch the bottom of the lake I started swimming.

I had to go to the yellow buoy. “One, two, three, BREATHE!” I thought to myself. After many strokes, I was out and ready to bike.

Community Magazine

Ethan Wilson I ran over to the transition racks. I washed my feet down, dried them off, took a sip of water, put on my shoes and helmet and hopped on my bike and rode away. I started peddling hard as I went up the hardest hill. I heard my mom cheering, “Come on Gracie…You can do it!” I felt someone come up and help push me over part of the hill. I was getting tensed up. There were two packs and I was 5th in the second pack. I peddled harder and before I knew it I was first in my pack.

I saw the end of the bike course and peddled hard and finished first in that pack.

I ran to the transition racks. I sipped some water, took off my helmet, put the bike down and started the run. My legs ached so bad, they felt like they had been run over by a truck. Before I knew it, I was at the halfway point. I had a really bad cramp in my side but I could see the finish line so I told myself to keep going. I sprinted as fast as a cheetah to the end. “I FINISHED!” I screamed! “I’m so proud of you!” my mom said over and over again. After two people jogged by, my brother, Ethan came sprinting around the corner. We had both done it!

The next day my mom looked up the places and times. I came in 15th in my age group. My brother came in 17th. I came in 7th for all the girls and Ethan came in 9th. My time was 24 minutes!

That was the best race EVER!

E

very time I thought about the triathlon, I got a weird feeling in my stomach. I was a little nervous but also excited. I was worried that I wouldn’t finish the race. The night before the race, I was really sick. I woke up at 12:00 a.m. and walked into my parent’s room. I felt really dizzy.

My dad gave me some medicine and I stayed up for two hours and then went back to sleep.

In the morning I felt much better and said I could do the race. I was still worried and excited as I got my swimsuit on. When we got there I was really nervous. The 11-14 year olds were running in the water to start their 200 yard swim. When they were done it was time for Grace and I to start the race.

I had to swim 100 yards. As soon as that was done, we got on our bikes and started biking. A seven year old kid bumped my bike over and went in front of me. A half mile later, I passed lots of kids including the seven year-old who had bumped my bike. I could see Grace five people in front of me.

After the bike I was exhausted but I had to run a half mile. It was not long before I saw Grace up ahead of me and we gave each other a high five on the bridge. I could see the finish line. I ran as fast as I could to the end. When I got to my mom I fell to the ground at her feet. I was so proud of myself for doing the triathlon but I was EXHAUSTED!

Local Charity Goes To Bat For Kids With Cancer

O

n Saturday, July 14, 2012, the Frances Foundation For Kids Fighting Cancer held its sixth annual Softball Tournament and Picnic at Cross Farm Park in Holmdel. Including softball players, fans, kids with cancer and their families, and picnic guests, more than 400 people enthusiastically attended this fun-filled day.

All eleven teams in the softball tournament were named and played in the honor of local children battling cancer or in their memory. Team Angels, sponsored by Vonage, played on behalf of five shore area children who lost their battles to cancer during the last few years. The tournament and picnic brought beautiful smiles to all the children and guests. This event raised $10,000.00 which will be used exclusively for the Frances Foundations’ mission of bringing smiles to kids with cancer and financial and emotional assistance to their families.

For the third consecutive year, Team Mya won the thrilling softball championship, culminating a twenty game tournament with numerous teams sponsored by local businesses. The children also enjoyed DJ music and games, face painting, arts and crafts, water balloon toss and numerous other exciting games and activities. All players, fans, and guests were treated to a royal barbecue of cheeseburgers, hot dogs, salads, watermelon, fruit, ice pops, cake, popcorn and lots more.

Ten-year-old cancer fighting Sammie Whelan of Hazlet made a presentation of a beautiful colored collage that profoundly stated that “SMILES ARE THE BEST MEDICINE”. The Frances Foundation picnic and tournament brought unlimited dosages of medicine to the kids and their families.

The Frances Foundation, a Holmdel non-profit charity which has a serious passion to deliver compassionate help to kids with cancer and to their families, will be holding its eighth annual Dinner Dance Gala at The Ocean Place Resort in Long Branch, NJ, on Saturday, October 20. For more information and tickets please contact Bob Heugle at 732.462.7170.

“I was beyond thrilled when I received word that my piece was accepted,” said Modla from her studio in Holmdel. “Exhibiting in a Linus Galleries show is a big deal in the art world, and it was deeply gratifying to be selected, and very affirming of my work.”

“My family and I danced around the kitchen, whooping for joy,” she said with a smile.

In connection with the show, a limited edition of gallery-quality prints were made of the original “Reclining Nude” featured in the “Nude But Not Rude” art exhibition. These signed and numbered prints are 8.5 x 10, mounted on watercolor paper and board, ready for framing.

An Exhibition Catalogue featuring each artist’s name and work from the show was published and will be available on Amazon.com.

Linus Galleries are located in Los Angeles County in Southern California (Long Beach and Pasadena). Their mission is to “embrace art that is sophisticated, moving, emotional, thoughtprovoking, beautiful, and elegant.”

Italian-born Grace Modla is a writer and an artist who has lived in Holmdel for seventeen years. The married mother of two has had an eclectic career in education and the arts, bringing her interdisciplinary work in painting, printmaking, and graphic design to explore the ways in which art, language, spirituality, and politics intersect.

She has taught English, Creative Writing, ESL, and her native Italian at the University of Kansas in Lawrence, KS, and Brookdale Community College, Lincroft, NJ. She was Visiting Artist for the Youth Enrichment Services (YES) Pro http:// design-seeds.com/index.php/home/entry/arizona-brights gram for LGBTQ youth at The Center, New York City.

Her work has been featured in solo exhibitions, juried art shows, publications, graphic design venues, and private collections.

Ten Kid-Friendly Restaurants We Love

By Kerry Bowbliss, Liz Coscia & Sherry Lombardi

1. Casa Comida, Long Branch:

It is time to go south of the border and add a little Mexican flare into the meal mix. Located in Long Branch, their lofty menu always has a fun option for the ninos—even your not so adventurous ones. And their rep for refreshing margaritas, will keep Mom & Dad feeling festive as well. Pick your night by their weekly specials—fajita night, buffets and more.

2. Molly Maguire’s Blackpoint Inn Rumson:

This cozy Irish pub (which recently changed names) has turned into a staple in the two rivers neighborhood.

And given the whole pub vibe, most of the food here is appealing to kids, (hopefully) making for a tantrum free meal. The wee ones can even choose off of their own menu with some yummy classics like pizza, fish & chips, burgers and more. There is a lively and family friendly atmosphere with large booth and lots of TVs, which are perfect for corralling and entertaining the tykes.

3. Shaka Pier Village, Long Branch:

Go ahead and kick it island style. Your mouths will be watering over the burritos, quesadillas and a trip to Shaka is not complete without the genuine Hawaiian shaved ice. No worries if your little dudes and dudettes aren’t digging the island style meals, they have the traditional mac & cheese, chicken nuggets, etc… Even better to the parents delight, their meals are served with apple slices or baby carrots and tortillas. And note to the ‘rents: Shaka supplies the bucket and ice, but bring your own brew!

4. On the Deck Atlantic Highlands:

Talk about dinner with a view. What is better than sitting inside or outside, while overlooking the beautiful boats of the Atlantic Highlands marina, as well as Sandy Hook, and having the New York City skyline in the back ground.

This is the sister restaurant of popular Off the Hook in Highlands. The kids’ menu has classics like grilled cheese, chicken fingers, fried shrimp and burgers with fries. And we love that the kids’ entrees are all named after the owners’ children. We hear the sangria— white or red—is fabulous.

Community Magazine

Skip the supermarket and cancel the sitter. It’s time for a fun night out with the fam. These restaurants will welcome your little ones with open arms (yep, you read that right) and let you and your other half enjoy a night out, good food, and even an adult beverage or two.

5. Joe’s Crab Shack Eatontown:

Joe’s may not be top of mind when it comes to a family-friendly restaurant, especially if your kids don’t think fish is delish. But this restaurant is new to the area and we think you should give it a try. Not only do they have some of the typical faves when it comes to the kid’s menu, but, get this, they also have a playground! That’s right grab a table and let your kids play while you sit back and enjoy some grown-up time. And if you’re interested in expanding your little pals palette, we recommend the Kid’s Steampot, Snow Crab, and Corn on the Cob.

6. Kanji Tinton Falls:

Get ready for a hip alternative to chicken fingers and fries at this great hibachi and sushi restaurant. For years they have been getting rave reviews for its great food and fresh sushi. Not only will you get a great meal, but kids will love to sit around the hibachi and watch the show that the chef puts on, slicing, dicing and doing fun tricks. Mom and Dad, a reminder it is BYOB, but a liquor store is right next door.

7. Barnacle Bill’s Rumson:

This is hands-down one of everyone’s favorite on the Navesink. Even though it might not have a separate kids’ menu, there are more than enough options from pasta to chicken fingers to please every picky eater. The place has a fun vibe and is loud (translation: no one notices our toddler’s preentrée meltdown). A signature icon of Barnacle’s is that the floors are always covered with peanut shells. A tip, if you have to wait a bit for a table, take the time to walk down to the dock to feed the ducks, or look at the docked boats. The dining room is always full of families, and don’t forget the quarters, the video games will keep them occupied while Mom and Dad sip on a tasty beverage.

8. Pops Garage The Grove West, Shrewsbury: Want to infuse a little surf art, culture and community into your next meal?

Pop’s Garage in either the Grove West

or Asbury Park brings the laid-back cuisine and culture of Mexico straight to the New Jersey families. Indulge in an over-stuffed burrito or some homemade tacos. We’re fans of their Skirt Steak Jaliscos and the Pop’s Cuban Corn… yummo! Also, the Shrewsbury location, when season allows, adds local flavor to the dishes, vegetables & herbs which are harvested right outside the restaurant from the Grove West Community Garden.

9. Broadway Grill Red Bank:

Located in the heart of Red Bank this family friendly restaurant has been a staple for locals for many years. And the theatre décor alone is a great conversation piece for the fam, be it the art or music from the likings of the Lion King, Wizard of Oz or many others.

Breakfast, lunch or dinner can be served up anytime—so whatever your tiny tykes mood, they’re sure to leave with a satisfied stomach. And don’t forget, Monday night is BOGO Burger night.

10. Charley’s Ocean Grill Long Branch:

Sit back enjoy a great meal with the sounds of the Atlantic Ocean only a few steps away. They offer a little bit of everything from steaks to seafood, to burgers and stir fry. And the kids will be thoroughly entertained throughout the meal thanks to the wait staff providing the gang with wikki stix, letting their imaginations run wild.

“NJ Run for the Fallen” will kick off on Friday, September 28 at 8:00 a.m. at Cape May Lighthouse with a “start” ceremony for the three-day, 168+ mile run through Wildwood, Stone Harbor/Avalon, Ocean City, Somers Point, Egg Harbor, Galloway, Tuckerton, Ocean Twp., Toms River, Brick, Mantoloking, Point Pleasant, Sea Girt, Belmar, Bradley Beach, Asbury Park, Long Branch, Oceanport, Shrewsbury and Lincroft to finish at the NJ Vietnam Veterans’ Memorial in Holmdel on National Gold Star Family Day, Sunday, September 30, 2012. Route maps are available at http://www.njrunforthefallen.org/2012-run.html This year our Run Team will be joined in Ocean City on Friday, September 28, by members of The Achilles Freedom Team of Wounded Vets. The Freedom Team are wounded service members in hand-crank wheelchairs as an integral part of our Run Team. Unlike pushrim wheelchairs, which require users to lean forward, this adaptive device is excellent for people with injuries that have resulted in amputation or paralysis. It was through the efforts of Achilles that these devices are now permitted in many marathons, including the ING New York City Marathon. More details are available at http://www.achillesinternational.org/programs/freedom-team/overview and at http://www.louieslife. org/events.html.

On Sunday afternoon, as the Run enters Holmdel there will be opportunities for the public to show their support and run alongside our team for either the last 5 miles or a 2K run/walk into the PNC Arts Center to finish at the NJ Vietnam Veterans’ Memorial. For more information and to find out how to participate by joining the run, donating or volunteering, please visit the NJ Run for the Fallen website at www. njrunforthefallen.org.

Our Furry Friends Are Looking for Their

Forever Home!

Adopt a Rescue Today—And You’ll Be Asking Yourself, “Who Rescued Who?” Victoria’s looking for her forever home. She’s midsized at 38 pounds, shy and sweet. With one bright blue eye and one brown, Victoria is spayed, up to date on vaccinations and house trained. She is a little shy at first, but once she gets to know you this sweet pup is a real love bug. Because of her shyness, a calmer household would be ideal.

Coco is a seven-year-old Papillion mix who was rescued along with Nicky. She’s sweet as can be and all she needs out of life is a place on the couch to cuddle and a person to love forever. She’s spayed, house trained and up to date on vaccinations.

Nicky is a four-year-old Papillion mix who is spayed, vaccinated and ready for his forever home. He’s sweet as can be and gets along with other dogs too! To find out more about this sweet little guy, just fill out an application on www.castle-of-dreams.com.

Roxie is only five-months-old and already homeless.

She’s a big puppy with lots of love to give. We’re guessing she’s a Boxer mix with great brindle coloring. Very mellow, Roxie wants nothing more than just to be with her person.

Madison came into rescue scared, thin and very shy.

She’s blossoming in her foster family, weighs 17 lbs now, and has lots of puppy energy. Madison gets along with other dogs and cats, is spayed and up to date on vaccinations. Because she can be shy, we recommend no young children. Sometimes when company arrives she hides behind the couch until she knows it’s safe to come out. Call today to find out more about Madison.

Ethel came from a hoarding situation with 130 dogs in a studio apartment in NYC. She’s a bit shy, but loves to cuddle on the couch and be with her people. She’s been spayed, vaccinated and is ready for her forever home. To meet this little pup and see how sweet she is, just give us a call.

Jojo, a Chihuahua/Terrier mix was dumped in a shelter at seven-years-old. He was shaking so uncontrollably that a shelter worker called Castle of Dreams to see if we could rescue this sweet little man. Jojo is now in New Jersey searching for his forever home. Neutered, vaccinated and loving. Won’t you give an older dog a chance?

To inquire about any of our furry friends, please call 732.765.8378 or visit http://www.castle-of-dreams.com.

All funds raised go directly to the care of the dogs. Last year alone, Castle of Dreams rescued 300 animals, the numbers increase every year as new foster families join the group.

Lincroft Fire Company Sponsors Important Blood Drive Story SuSan Murphy

L

incroft Fire Company held one of its best blood drives ever on July 11, with over 30 people donating blood during the three hour blood drive. Holly Thompson, Area Manager of Central Jersey Blood Center (CJBC) coordinated the drive with firefighter Dennis Fowler, who has continued to alert the community about the urgent need for blood donations.

According to Ms. Thompson, a total of 28 units of blood were collected during this drive. She commended Lincroft Fire Company for their continuous support. “The Fire House Family has some of the most dedicated donors I have had the privilege of meeting, and these amazing donors know that their contributions save lives every day.” Mr. Fowler replied, “We are only helping our neighbors.” He feels that participating in a blood drive when there are no urgent family health issues is best. “Waiting until a family member needs blood in an emergency is not the best time to decide to donate.” CJBC supplies blood to all of the local hospitals and the need is always there. “We would like to see more facilities step up to the plate and hold blood drives,” said Ms. Thompson. She added, “Dennis always makes time for us and manages to sponsor four blood drives each year with CJBC. We can always count on the Lincroft Fire Company.”

Bill Rowe, a former Lincroft firefighter, and his son Steven, 21, arrived to give blood. Rob Hughes, a Lincroft firefighter for 15 years, also donated.

Following a need by a close family member, he began donating platelets, and has continued to do so for over 10 years. Lukas Siclare, a Lincroft firefighter for one and a half years donated. Tracy Nimon, whose husband Michael is a lifetime member of Lincroft Fire Company, arrived with her son Domenico Manzo to give blood. As a new member of the Ladies Auxiliary, she wanted to be supportive in the drive. This was her first time donating.

Several other firefighters from the Station also donated during this drive.

Appointments are scheduled for the blood drives and many past donors return to help. Walk-ins are definitely welcomed and greatly appreciated.

CJBC volunteers check the donor’s eligibility to give blood before heading to the mobile blood donor bus. Blood donor centers are located in Toms River, Howell, and Shrewsbury. For further information about CJBC and upcoming blood drives, visit www.cjbcblood.org or call 732.842.5750.

Union Beach Fire Department will hold a blood drive on Tuesday, August 7, 2012 from 5:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. All donors who donate blood between Memorial Day and Labor Day are entered into CJBC’s drawing for a $2,000 Travel Credit through Liberty Travel.

Lincroft Fire Company will sponsor their next blood drive on Wednesday, September 19. Due to the volume of donors who wish to support CJBC, the drive will begin an hour earlier at 5:00 p.m.

Colts Neck’s Own Recently Drafted By StoRy SuSan Murphy

P

laying professional baseball has always been a dream and a goal for Pat Light.

“Since I was a kid just learning how to play I’ve always wanted to play in Major League Baseball.” In June, he was on his way to fulfill that dream. The right-handed pitcher, a Monmouth University junior, and a 2009 graduate of Christian Brothers Academy (CBA) Lincroft, was selected with the 37th pick overall by the Boston Red Sox in the supplemental first round of the Major League Baseball Draft.

Twenty-one-year-old Light was at home watching the draft with his family when he heard the news. “It was exciting for sure. To be chosen by such a prestigious organization was a dream come true for me. And although I grew up on the other side of the Red Sox/ Yankee rivalry, I’m still excited to be a part of the Red Sox,” he said. As that young baseball player coached by his father in recreation and travel teams sponsored by the Colts Neck Sports Foundation, did Light know this is where he would be someday? “I’d like to say I always knew I would be where I am now, but you know there is so much uncertainty and so much that can happen that you never really know until you are actually doing it.

Fortunately for me, I am getting closer than ever to my ultimate goal.”

In 2009 during his final season of baseball at CBA, Light was drafted by the Minnesota Twins – he declined the offer and chose to go on to Monmouth University. “I was not ready to go to pro ball just yet, both physically and mentally. At the time, being a later draft choice, it would not have provided me the best opportunity to succeed at the next level.

I talked with my parents and John Wilson, the scout who drafted me, and we all knew it was the best choice for me to go to college.”

He waited to see what would happen in the 2012 draft. “I think it worked out well for me,” he said. His parents, Doug and Carol, were not surprised by his decision.

Time spent playing ball and succeeding academically in both CBA and Monmouth taught Light to become more disciplined. “If I need to get something done, I go and get it done. CBA and Monmouth are both schools that can challenge you academically and if you don’t get your work in you will definitely struggle. So the academic side of things just taught me to get work done and on time and it has benefitted me tremendously.” Besides being disciplined, Light admits he is also ultra-competitive. “Being as competitive as I am has served me very well throughout my career in baseball and outside of baseball.”

Whether it is baseball, golf, or anything else, Light wants to win. “Being the way I am just allows me to always strive to get better and not ever be satisfied where I am in life. That is the biggest advantage in my opinion.”

Light’s parents have told all three of their children to do their best in everything they do. His father told them to try all sports to find what they like or may be good at. He

added, “When you play, be totally committed and be team oriented.

Always support your team and teammates regardless of the situation.

And after the game is over, move on.” Light said his parents have always offered inspiration and encouragement. “The one thing they have always emphasized is modesty. Just being myself and not letting any of the success and anything that comes with the success get to my head, because that is when things start to head south. You have to be confident in who you are and what you do, but there’s a fine line between confidence and arrogance. That is why I try to be confident, not arrogant.”

When asked what advice he would give upcoming young athletes preparing for a career in sports, Light said, “Just work hard and don’t listen to what other people have to say about you. Set a goal and do everything in your power to reach that goal – never give up on it.

Most importantly, have fun doing what you’re doing. You have to enjoy it or you will lose sight of why you are doing it. Don’t let other people take the fun out of the game for you. Even when you make it to pro ball and it turns into a ‘business’, don’t let anyone take the fun out it for you because at the end of the day it is still just baseball.”

Light said he would love being either a starter or late inning reliever for the Red Sox. “I have always been a starter and will always love starting. Both would be fine with me.” He laughed as he added, “But what kid doesn’t want to be Mariano Rivera in the bottom of the ninth and have your song blasted and the fans erupt?”

The phrase Light uses to describe how he feels about being drafted by the Red Sox is “I am Living the Dream.” He tells himself this every day. “I stay away from being anxious about what the future has in store for me because even though I am not in the big leagues, I am still playing baseball and having a lot of fun doing it. So I am taking it day by day. And at the end of the National Anthem every

”

day I say to myself, ‘Vive Tu Sueno’ – Live Your Dream and ‘Carpe Momentum’ – Seize the Moment. If I keep my thoughts on those two sayings, I’ll be just fine.”

For now, Light said he will be putting his college career on hold until he is done playing baseball. His parents, Doug and Carol Light, as well as his older sister Colleen and older brother Sean, who both played college basketball, are his strongest supporters. Light’s parents were thrilled when he was drafted by the Red Sox. “It was an exciting spring season and to see him get an opportunity with the Boston Red Sox to fulfill his dream was awesome,” said his mother. “It is a great opportunity with an organization that cares about winning,” said his father. Both parents were glad he would be close to home.

In 2003, Patrick went to Cooperstown with the 12-year-old Colts Neck travel team.

Off now to pitch with the Lowell Spinners, Class-A Affiliate of the Boston Red Sox, Light is on the road to his ultimate goal. His mother hopes he stays healthy and works hard. “I want him to do his very best so that he will have no regrets later. Patrick has been given a golden opportunity and I want him to respect it. I know that he will.” His father emphasized, “Being a pitcher, he will have to always maintain a positive approach to his craft. He can’t worry about things he has no control over. He needs to remain focused and make sure that he takes his best shot at this opportunity. Leave nothing on the sidelines. Outside of baseball, be smart, kind, and always be a gentleman.”

Light made his professional debut with the Lowell Spinners in Batavia, New York on July 9. His parents were there to see the game. Their reaction as they watched their son live out his lifelong dream? It was totally surreal for a kid that not long ago was playing with his friends on hot summer days at Laird Road.

Best of luck

he Phillip K. Dorn Marine League Detachment hosted its 5th annual golf outing at Pebble Creek Golf Course in Colts Neck on July 9 with golf enthusiasts, active and retired Marines, and a great cause – which made for the perfect combination of yet another successful golf outing. Golfers set out to play 18 holes in the name of charity followed by a Texas style barbeque, and an awards ceremony with a chance to win prizes. The outing was supported by over 42 sponsors donating items such as cars to golf bag push carts.

In addition, the 6th Motor Transport Battalion in Red Bank and some of its active Marines attended to support the outing.

Some played golf while others where at hand to give hands-on instructions for the static weapons display. Chief Armor Marine Oliver Ventura was at hand with several other marines to demonstrate the different types of assault weapons currently used in Afghanistan. Golfers also had the opportunity to sit inside of a Humvee – a tactical four-wheel drive military vehicle.

The outing, which supports the mission of the detachment, helps to raise money to fund several programs for marines as well as scholarships. The detachment offers marines and their families with assistance with medical issues to deployment readiness planning for both marines and their families, as well as scholarships for the college bound. The detachment works closely with marines for the readiness program which assists deployed and returned marines and their families.

ridget and Megan Torregrossa are teaming up to help one of the world’s most beloved charities. Torregrossa is partnering with Ronald McDonald House (RMH) of Long Branch & New Brunswick on Tuesday, August 7 for their second annual “Handbags for Hope” Twilight Cocktail Reception & Handbag Auction. They will be featured guests at the event and will be donating bags from their new collection for this great organization. Even though their line is a national brand, Bridget and Megan are proud to be working with such a recognizable charity.

Bridget and Megan have designed the RMH special event tote.

They will be selling this tote on the Torregrossa website after the event to continue to build brand awareness and donations for the charity. The tote design was inspired by Megan’s original sketches of one of the most popular bags of the 2012 collection. Torregrossa will also reach out to their Facebook fan base. Once Torregrossa reaches 5,000 followers on Facebook, they will be making a charitable donation to RMH. RMH is celebrating their 25th Anniversary this year. They have provided a “home away from home” for thousands of families, whose children are treated at area hospitals. Regardless of their primary residence, the RMH families all share one common thread…their child is ill.

RMH families can stay together in comfortable surroundings with a supportive environment during a time of crisis.

Four Local Juniors Attend American Legion Jersey Boys State

A

merican Legion Jersey Boys State (ALJBS) is a mythical fifty-first state organized and administered for citizenship training purposes under the auspices of The American Legion, Department of New Jersey. The ALJBS website lists this description, as well as detailed information on what is taught to the 950-plus high school juniors who attend each year.

The program’s motto is “A Week That Shapes the Future,” and that has certainly been true for the four (4) young men from Colts Neck, Holmdel, Keyport, and Mater Dei Prep high schools that attended this past June. Boys State teaches the duties, privileges, rights and responsibilities of American citizenship. The 2012 ALJBS was held at Rider University in June.

Colts Neck High School junior Nicholas Zampelle said that what impacted him the most was learning how young some officials were when they went into politics. “There were 19-yearolds already involved in the Board of Education. I was unaware that such a young person could run for a high position and make a difference.” While at Boys State, Nicholas was appointed a position in Parks and Property, yet found he enjoyed helping his fellow city members run their campaigns. “The lessons we learned could be applied to anything in life, to any type of job.

For instance, problem solving can be done wherever you have a group of people together and need to come to one conclusion.”

Story SuSan Murphy Holmdel High School junior Alec Jaffe felt the speech by Senator Robert Menendez was an inspiration. “Specifically, he talked about his background, that his parents were Cuban immigrants and that he grew up very poor. Yet, he worked to get where he is today and he got into politics at 19.” As for what lesson he could use outside of ALJBS, Alec said, “When there is a group together, make sure everyone’s opinion is heard.”

Keyport High School junior Jacob Thiringer enjoyed meeting so many new people. “There were a thousand of the smartest, nicest, and coolest guys in New Jersey, not to mention the Counselors.” He was chosen to carry a flag in the flag ceremony, which he found exciting. What he brought back from the program was an important certification. “Boys State offered CPR certification and I became certified, which is a useful skill to have. It is good to know I can save someone’s life.”

Each boy’s parents noticed a definite difference in them following their week-long stay at Boys State. Mrs. Dina Zampelle said her son Nicholas was able to explain the upcoming election process taking place in Freehold. Mr. Robert Jaffe noticed his son Alec had matured, and was even able to secure a summer job. Jacob’s parents said he began talking about the police and military and their role in the community and the world, as well as what they have to go through.

We Are Proud Members of:

Nicholas Zampelle is in the process of applying to West Point, but said he would go to Rutgers to study Criminology and Law, as he wants to get into the CIA. He has been a cadet with the ROTC-NJ program at Colts Neck High School and is also interested in joining the National Guard. He would like to apply for a staff position at Boys State. Alec Jaffe wants to go to Rutgers and study Bio-Engineering or Bio-Technology. Jacob Thiringer said his first choice is William Paterson University where he wants to study music or business, though he is gearing more towards music.

Mr. Ken Connors is the Boys State Chairman for American Legion Raritan Post 23, Keyport. He has been an active member at the Post for 33 years and ALJBS Post Chairman for 29 years. “One of the pillars of the American Legion is Youth. This is a great experience for them. From the feedback we get, many of the boys stay in touch long after they attend the program.” Mr. Vincent Solomeno is the Monmouth County Boys State Chairman.

These boys were chosen as delegates to ALJBS and were sponsored by two (2) local organizations and one (1) business. Nicholas Zampelle and Alec Jaffe were sponsored by American Legion Raritan Post 23, Keyport, New Jersey; Jacob Thiringer was sponsored

by Keyport Kiwanis, Keyport, New Jersey; and Christian Cieri of Mater Dei Prep was sponsored by Scudiery Enterprises, Hazlet, New Jersey. Christian Cieri was unavailable for interview. He did, however, attend the ALJBS program.

Colts Neck Youth Enjoy

Annual Summer Fishing Derby Story Susan Murphy

C

olts Neck youth, ages 14 and under, arrived with their parents and siblings to do some serious fishing on July 7 at Bucks Mill Park. The designated “fishing holes” were the two ponds at the park. From shortly after 9:00 a.m. through to 12:00 noon, determined young fishermen baited their hooks and threw out their lines, as they watched intently for that bobber to sink. When they felt a tug or saw movement in the pond, they let out a yell and their dad or mom stood nearby to watch them pull in the big one!

Despite the near-100 degree temperature, well over 50 boys and girls attended the Colts Neck Recreation and Parks Annual Summer Youth Fishing Derby. Although most had an idea of how to fish, well-known fisherman Ed Piotrowski conducted a fishing clinic on the methods of fishing at the beginning of the derby. He demonstrated the techniques used in fly fishing and was available for any questions the youth or parents might have about fishing in general. Director of Recreation and Parks Thomas E. Hennessy, Jr. said the fly fishing demonstration was “reminiscent of baseball great Ted William’s fishing clinics.”

Fishing Derby Judges Douglas Rehm, Michael LaGrippo, and Timothy O’Dwyer measured and weighed each fish as well as recorded the information next to the name of each boy or girl who came up with their catch. Having participated in the derby when they were younger, they understood the excitement and impatience of each fisherman as they waited to hear the stats on their fish.

Director Hennessy captured the event perfectly when he commented, “This is our 34th year of cooperative fish and smiling faces. Fresh worms were supplied by our Colts Neck PBA, attracting the attention of many hungry but unsuspecting fish.

Each child had one eye on the gold fishing trophies glittering in the sun and the other on their frequently disappearing bobbers. It appeared that a great time was enjoyed by all!”

Divorce Talk: Taxes port and alimony are treated for tax purposes. Alimony is taxable as income to the recipient. Conversely, it is deductible by the spouse who pays it. Child support is tax free to the recipient and is not deductible by the payor.

ax issues run through every divorce case. It is important to recognize them and to obtain the assistance of a tax accountant or tax lawyer when necessary.

Most family law attorneys will recognize tax issues when they arise.

Many will even anticipate them before they arise. And most will know when a tax issue is one that is so specific, detailed or complicated that it requires consultation with a tax law specialist.

Another frequently encountered tax issue arises when a withdrawal from a tax deferred retirement account, such as an IRA, is made. If withdrawals are made before the spouse whose name is on the account reached 59 1/2, the federal government imposes a 10% penalty on the total amount of the withdrawal.

In addition, the withdrawals are added to that spouse’s ordinary income and taxed at prevailing rates in the bracket in which he/she finds himself. Sometimes when funds are needed from these accounts, a loan can be arranged to avoid the penalty and defer the tax. However, if the loans are not repaid, the government will treat the loans as mere withdrawals and the above rules apply.

A relatively simple issue encountered in many divorce cases is the different ways in which child sup-

Unreported or underreported income sometimes comes to light during a divorce, which required consid-

eration of potential additional taxes, interest and even penalties. In egregious cases, concerns for criminal liability may make consultation with a criminal lawyer prudent.

Wife deferred her educational plans to work and support the couple.

When the Husband finished his education, he was to work so the Wife could complete her education.

Limited duration alimony generally applies in situations where there is a significant disparity in work history and earning potential (as in permanent alimony situations), but where the marriage is of relatively short duration and/or the spouses are relatively young. In those circumstances a court may conclude that it would be inequitable to require the payor to pay permanent alimony for a period that may be significantly longer than the marriage lasted or to a relatively young ex-spouse who has a greater opportunity to start anew than one who has been married for most of his or her adult life.

In each instance the marriage broke up after the Husband completed his education, but before the Wife began hers. Given the short term marriage and the relatively young ages of the spouses, courts decided that the other forms of alimony were not appropriate. Yet, a troubling inequity existed which was addressed by requiring the Husband to support the Wife while she completed her education – a socalled reimbursement.

Reimbursement alimony is best explained by the facts in the cases from which it was born in the early 1980s. The cases involved young couples in short term marriages who had agreed that the Husband would continue his education, while the

etting a new puppy can be a very exciting experience especially if you’ve never had one before. As many of you know it can also be a very trying time while you are learning to care for your new best friend! One very common problem is gastrointestinal upset in young dogs. Puppies can have episodes of diarrhea (and vomiting) caused by something as simple as changing their food too quickly or as sinister as a potential life threatening virus infecting their intestines. Let’s talk about some of the potential causes of vomiting and diarrhea in puppies, how to differentiate between a mild episode and one that is life threatening, and some easy steps to help prevent these things from happening.

e e t y s a h e e -

n y , .

Puppies can have diarrhea from a number of different causes including stress, intestinal parasites, changes in diet, and viral infections. The younger your little one is the more important it is to keep a close eye on them because the younger animals get sicker much faster than the older ones. Let’s discuss these common causes of diarrhea.

Stress is a leading cause of diarrhea in puppies mainly due to the sudden and tremendous changes in the animal’s surroundings. Your little one has gone from the safe, friendly confines of his/her littermates to being the only dog in the house with all of their new family giving all sorts of attention. Abrupt changes in diet can also have a direct effect on your puppies stool consistency. A change in the food quality (from high to low or vice versa) can lead to an upset of the digestive tract – even in adult dogs!

For obvious reasons trying to avoid stress on your new puppy will be the most difficult. Unfortunately when pets are adopted there is always an abrupt change of environment and a period of adjustment to their new home. In order to reduce stress make sure the new puppy has a safe quiet area to sleep. Puppies can be overwhelmed by excited small children (especially if they are grabbing ears and passing the puppy around for everyone to see), and may feel threatened by other pets that are already in the house. Slowly introducing the new puppy to everyone in the house will help to alleviate some of that initial stress. Diarrhea caused by stress should resolve within a few days.

It’s always important to find out what your puppy has been eating when you adopt them. Try to have some of that food on hand even if it won’t be their permanent food. This way you will be able to ‘transition’ them from that food to the one of your choice. The transition period should be over 7-10 days, slowly increasing the amount of new food and decreasing their original food. You should see a resolution of this type of diarrhea in a few days.

Infections in the intestines are much more serious causes of diarrhea that usually will not resolve on their own. Intestinal parasites are important because they can cause diarrhea, contaminate the environment, and can be harmful to humans. If your pup has diarrhea that has not resolved or worsens over a few days then you need to have them evaluated by your veterinarian. Your veterinarian will be able to test a stool sample for these intestinal parasites. It’s also a good idea to bring in a stool sample to the veterinarian if possible; around 2 tablespoons should do. You may see over-the-counter dewormers at pet stores, etc. but these are usually not effective against all the parasites your pet may have been exposed to – especially ones like Giardia and coccidia. More importantly, only your veterinarian can tell you if the parasite is harmful to you or your family, so make sure you get a professional opinion.

More serious causes of diarrhea in puppies are intestinal parasites and viral infections. Puppies can be born with or acquire intestinal worms from their mothers (usually through normal newborn feeding).

Some of the more common intestinal parasites are roundworms, hookworms, tapeworms, as well as protozoan (single cell, microscopic) parasites like coccidia or Giardia. These are especially important to be aware of because some are transmissible to humans – particularly children. Infectious viral diseases like Canine Parvovirus are a common and often fatal cause of diarrhea in puppies. Unvaccinated (and sometimes partially vaccinated) puppies contract this from the environment usually from exposure to the fecal matter of an infected dog. The virus disrupts the lining of the small intestine causing foul-smelling, bloody diarrhea. Now please don’t stress about all the potential problems we’ve just discussed!! Let’s talk about some simple ways to avoid these problems and what you should do if your puppy does happen to break out with diarrhea.

* No referral or appointment needed for emergency care.

GARdEN STATE VETERINARY SpECIALISTS

Parvovirus is an extremely contagious infection that can be avoided by getting your puppy properly vaccinated by your veterinarian. Just one vaccine won’t do the trick either, as a series of vaccines is required to fully protect your pet against this deadly disease. Your veterinarian can tailor a vaccine protocol that fits your pet’s needs depending on their age. Keeping your pet isolated from high dog ‘traffic’ areas like dog parks can reduce the risk of exposure to this deadly virus while they are receiving their vaccines.

If you see your pet has bloody, foul-smelling diarrhea please have them examined by your veterinarian immediately. The diarrhea will likely be accompanied by lethargy, reluctance to eat, and vomiting. There is a simple test that can be performed to diagnose Parvovirus infection. Invariably this always seems to happen either at night or on the weekends when most veterinarians are closed. If so, seek emergency veterinary care immediately. Uncontrolled diarrhea (and vomiting) can quickly lead to severe dehydration that exacerbates your puppy’s already serious viral infection. Getting your puppy evaluated and beginning aggressive treatment is crucial to their survival with this type of infection.

Remember that while all cases of diarrhea in puppies should be noted, some are much more serious than others. Stress induced or dietary changes that cause diarrhea should resolve in a few days. Intestinal parasites can cause loose stool that seems to linger on longer than a few days. In these cases you should always have your pet evaluated by your veterinarian and bring a stool sample if possible. If you think your pet may have Parvovirus or shows signs consistent with it, then they needs to be checked out right away by a veterinarian, no matter the time of day. Please visit an emergency facility if your primary veterinarian is unavailable.

24 HOUR EMERGENCY & CRITICAL CARE UNT

You can avoid many if not all of these problems by scheduling an initial examination of your puppy with a veterinarian within the first day or two of adoption. Your primary veterinarian can provide important information on vaccinations, diet, behavior, and safety so that your new four legged family member begins their life in your home as happy and healthy as can be!

Colts Neck Country Fair Offered Fun For All Ages Story SuSan Murphy

N

early 1,000 people attended the Colts Neck Country Fair during June 29 and 30 at Bucks Mill Park. With 35 vendors, six food vendors, Rolling Video Games, Combat Sports, and rides for the little ones

by Seashore Amusements, every member of the family had something to do. A Wild West Show featuring Cowboy Larry and Rodeo star Juan Marrufo brought cheers and applause from the audience. Chianna Oxen, Rick’s Rebel Star provided by Rick’s Saddle Shop, and Scooty the miniature horse fascinated children and adults alike.

Colts Neck Business Association sponsored a Dunk Tank which seemed to be a draw for all ages, as was the Mechanical Bull. The Moroccan Sheep Herders played on Friday evening; Radio Station Thunder 106 provided music for Saturday. Colts Neck High School students held a food collection to benefit Freehold Open Door Food Bank.

Official Fair Sponsors included Brock Farms, CentraState Medical Center, Laird and Company, and Delicious Orchards. Games of chance and fortune were provided by Colts Neck Lions Club, Colts Neck Fire Department and Ladies Auxiliary, Holmdel Kiwanis Club, Ashley Lauren Foundation, and St. Mary’s Church.

fitt. Be healthy. Be the Change you want to see in the World.

Debbi Licata and Renee Gumbrecht, owners of Bfitt, live by these words. They maintain that staying healthy can be fun, and that thought is projected in the great music, amazing spin classes, and total body training offered at Bfitt.

Some of the supporters of Bfitt who attended the Grand Opening on July 21, 2012 joined owners Renee Gumbrecht and Debbi Licata for a group picture.

The Grand Opening for Bfitt was held on July 21. “There is something here for everyone,” said Ms. Gumbrecht. She has an extensive athletic background dating back to her early youth and is certified in kickboxing, cycling, and as a personal trainer. In recent years, Ms. Gumbrecht participated in the Women’s Professional Bassmasters Tournament trail and finished 24th in the country.

Prepare for Care Presented by CareOne Being a caregiver isn’t easy.You naturally want to give your loved one the best care possible, but it can be a challenge to balance caregiving with your other responsibilities at home and work — not to mention fitting in a little time for yourself. It’s no wonder so many caregivers feel overwhelmed and short on time and energy.

YOUR PARTNER IN CAREGIVING Fortunately, help is available in the form of respite care. Respite care is a short-term service aimed at providing high-quality, uninterrupted care to your loved ones while giving you the extra time you need. Respite services can be used for as little as one week or as long as one month.

Bfitt co-owner Debbi Licata prepares for a Ballet Barre Workout.

“We aim to please and we make it fun,” said Ms. Licata of the classes held at Bfitt. She has instructed all types of fitness classes and is certified in kickboxing, spinning, step, strength training, pilates, zumba, and NYC Ballet Workout. Although their instructional approach may be different, they are a unique “fit,” and their fitness styles compliment one another. “Clients tell us they see results,” said Ms. Licata. Just to be sure no one stays at a plateau, the class schedule is sometimes changed. Trying a new class or different instructor sometimes helps “wake” the body up. “You need to keep your body guessing,” said Ms. Gumbrecht.

“We have been friends for over four years,” said Ms. Licata of her partner, noting that they had been instructors at the same location. Originally a personal trainer, Ms. Gumbrecht was an instructor at another studio for several years before acquiring it. She then founded Bfitt Small Group Personal Training, now expanded to Bfitt Spin and Sculpt Cardio Fusion with Ms. Licata.

“We are always open to suggestions concerning our classes,” said Ms. Gumbrecht. Whether it’s a need for an extra class, or someone wants a longer class, Bfitt tries to accommodate their clients’ wishes. “It’s really all about them,” said Ms. Gumbrecht. This is another reason there is a 20 person maximum in the Spinning Class. It helps to keep classes small and personal. “We get to know everyone that way.” Ms. Licata added, “We know you by name – you are not a number.”

Following a class, there are little extras like water or coffee, fruit or granola bars that serve as a reminder to clients that they are important.

The Fed’s

Next Move Michael Pento President of Pento Portfolio strategies

S

panish and Italian bond yields have now risen back up to the level they were before the EU Summit. We also learned recently that U.S. job growth remains anemic, producing just 80k net new jobs in June. The global manufacturing index dropped to 48.9, for the first time since 2009.

And emerging market economies have seen their growth rates tumble, as the European economy sinks further into recession.

It isn’t much of a surprise to learn that central banks in China, Britain, Europe and America have indicated that more money printing is just around the corner.

In fact, we have recently witnessed the People’s Bank of China cut their one-year lending rate by 31 bps to 6 percent. The European Central Bank cut rates 25 bps, to .75 percent and dropped their deposit rate to zero percent. And the Bank of England restarted their bond purchase program just two months after ending the previous program, which indicates the central bank will buy another 50 billion pounds of government debt.

to lower the value of the dollar and vastly increase the amount of loan creation, without the Fed having to create one new dollar.

If commercial banks stop getting paid to keep their money dormant at the Fed, they will surely find somebody to make a loan to. They may even start shoving loans out through the drive-up window with a lollipop. Banks need to make money on their deposits (liabilities). If banks no longer get paid by the Fed, they will be forced to take a chance on loans to consumers, at the exact time when they should be getting rid of their existing debt. But it has already been made very clear to them that the government stands ready to bail out banks. So in reality, they don’t have to worry very much at all about once again making loans to people that can’t pay them back.

Commercial banks currently hold $1.42 trillion worth of excess reserves with the central bank. If that money were to be suddenly released, it could throw the fractional reserve system, have the potential to increase the money supply by north of $15 trillion! As silly as that sounds, I still hear prominent economists like Jeremy Siegel call for just such action. If they get their wish, watch for the gold market to explode higher in price, as the U.S. dollar sinks into the abyss.

Michael Pento, a Holmdel resident and President of Pento Portfolio Strategies (www.pentoport.com), is a well-established specialist in the Austrian School of economics and a regular guest on CNBC, Bloomberg, FOX Business News and other national media outlets. His market analysis can also be read in most major financial publications, including the Wall Street Journal. He also acts as a Financial Columnist for Forbes, Contributor to thestreet.com and is a blogger at the Huffington Post.

Additionally, Mr. Pento has worked for an investment advisory firm where he helped create ETFs and UITs that were sold throughout Wall Street. Earlier in his career Mr. Pento spent two years on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange. He has carried series 7, 63, 65, 55 and Life and Health Insurance Licenses. Mr. Pento graduated from Rowan University in 1991. To check out more, visit www.pentoport.com.

3rd Annual Walk the Walk with Kevin Kret IBRF, International Brain Research Foundation,a 501 c. corporation.

This past non-farm payroll report in the U.S. virtually guarantees the Fed will take action to compel commercial banks into expanding loan output within the next few months. It would be unrealistic to believe Ben Bernanke would watch U.S. inflation rates fall, the major averages significantly decline, employment growth stagnate; and do nothing to increase the money supply-especially while his foreign counterparts are aggressively easing monetary policy and trying to lower the value of their currencies.

As I predicted as far back as June of 2010, the Fed will soon follow the strategy of ceasing to pay interest on excess reserves.

Since October 2008, the Fed has been paying interest (25 bps) on commercial bank deposits held with the central bank. But because of Bernanke’s fears of deflation, he will eventually opt to do whatever it takes to get the money supply to increase. With rates already at zero percent and the Fed’s balance sheet already at an unprecedented and intractable level, the next logical step in Bernanke’s mind is to remove the impetus on the part of banks to keep their excess reserves laying fallow at the Fed. Heck, he may even charge interest on these deposits in order to guarantee that banks will find a way to get that money out the door.

The move would be much more politically tenable than to increase the Fed’s balance sheet yet further, most likely because people don’t understand the inflationary impact it would have.

Ceasing to pay interest on excess reserves would allow the Fed

Letter to the Editor Water Main Break- A Sign of Things to Come?

The recent water main break at the Swimming River Reservoir makes one pause to think about the need to protect our water supply. With more than 250,000 people in Monmouth County served by this reservoir, any interruptions in service will have far-reaching effects.

Much of the land in the watershed that feeds into the reservoir is situated in Holmdel. This land is zoned “environmentally-sensitive” so that it cannot be densely developed. The current Township Committee (TC) majority, notably Mayor Impreveduto and Committeemen Hinds, Buontempo, and Ponisi however, have voted for a Redevelopment Plan of the 472 acre Lucent tract which lies in watershed. (Democrat Fink voted against the Plan.) This Plan allows for 225 homes outside the footprint of the existing buildings. Impreveduto rationalized his position by saying that this property “would not be sold without a strong housing component”. As mayor, he should protect the interests of Holmdel and Monmouth County residents who depend on the Swimming River Reservoir rather than the interests of the developer or of Lucent. Overdevelopment in this critical area needs to be prevented at all costs. Please contact the Holmdel Township Committee members to voice your concerns. They can be reached at info@holmdeltownship.gov.

Holmdel Kiwanis Foundation PRESENTS

Annual Golf Outing Story SuSan Murphy

H

olmdel Kiwanis Foundation presented their seventeenth annual Dominick J. Luccarelli Memorial Golf Outing on July 16 at Jumping Brook Country Club in Neptune. The golf outing is held each year to benefit numerous children’s charities. Over 95 golfers attended the event which was chaired by Frank Allocco and DJ Luccarelli. Registration began at 10:00 a.m. with a buffet barbecue lunch served from 11:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Hole-in-One Prizes included a Pot of Gold, trips, and two cars. All American Chevrolet, Middletown, donated a white 2012 Chevy Impala, and Tom’s Ford, Keyport donated a black convertible Mustang. Raffle tickets were available for prizes that would be drawn during the Awards Dinner.

This is the first time the outing has been held in Neptune. For the last five years it has been at Bamm Hollow. Making certain everyone is comfortable was important to Mr. Allocco. “These are a great group of people that support us year after year so we want to be sure they enjoy themselves,” he said. DJ Luccarelli added, “We are happy to have another great turnout. We hope it’s a positive day for everyone. There are great prizes and we are supporting some great organizations.”

One of the awards usually given at the Awards Dinner is for Humanitarian of the Year. Holmdel Kiwanis chose Big Joe Henry of 101.5 FM for this important award but he was unable to attend.

Holmdel Kiwanis President Ron DeLuca noted that they will make an appearance at the radio personality’s Holiday Extravaganza for Jersey Kids at Jenkinson’s in Point Pleasant on December 8. “We will then present him with a big donation,” said Mr. DeLuca. He noted that Big Joe supports St. Clare’s Hospital and Catzenbach School for the Blind. “Big Joe is a quiet man with a big heart who donates his time, talents and treasures. We are very pleased to have him as our Kiwanis Honoree this year,” added Mr. DeLuca.

Marines of 6th MTB Commemorate 60th Anniversary with Special Ceremony

ixty years ago, on July 17, 1952, the 24th Special Infantry Company, a small United States Marine Corps Reserve Unit was activated at Port Newark, New Jersey. The unit was redesignated as 6th Motor Transport Battalion (MTB) on July 1, 1962. On December 12, 1983, 6th MTB relocated its headquarters to the current location at Monmouth Armed Forces Reserve Center in Red Bank.

This Marine Corps Reserve Unit may have had humble beginnings, yet today it has over 1,000 Marines and has locations at seven sites throughout the country.

Commanding Officer of 6th MTB, Lieutenant Colonel Edward D. McNulty noted that the Battalion has supported Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom. “Since 2003, we have had 26 mobilizations and today we still have Marines deployed in Afghanistan and the Gulf.” He added, “As you will hear, 6th Motors has a rich, proud history and today we mark a milestone as we continue down that road of serving our country, wherever and whenever we are called to do so.”

Left to right: Captain Fuzz Harrison, CO NWS Earle, proudly stands beside Ralph Ruocco, GSgt USMCR, who is a 22-year veteran of the Marine Corps and was in the Battles of Saipan, Tinian, Okinawa, and Nagasaki. He was assigned to Earle in 1947. “I am proud to call him my friend,” said Captain Harrison of Ruocco.

A “Roll Call for the Fallen” was led by Battalion Sergeant Major Derrick A. Smith who read the names of three 6th MTB Marines who were killed in action. Honoring their memory, three pairs of empty boots, three helmets sitting atop three rifles were placed beside one another. Dog tags were placed on each rifle as the names Corporal Alan R. Auger, (1991, Kuwait); Lance Corporal Richard A. Perez, Jr., (2005, Iraq); and Warrant Officer 1 Charles G. Wells, Jr., (2005, Iraq), were read.

Guest of Honor, Colonel Patrick J. Hermesmann, was Commander of 6th MTB from June 2002 through June 2004. “It’s been a long time since 1952. And the reason we are here today is because this great Battalion and its predecessors stood up in Port Newark, 60 years ago this month. That’s a fantastic accomplishment.”

During the luncheon held at Red Bank Elks #233 in Red Bank following the commemorative ceremony, the Elks presented 6th MTB with a check for $1,000 to use at their discretion.
