Storytelling for Business

I

n your next meeting, instead of breaking out a PowerPoint presentation, why not tell a story instead?

Stories have more application in business than most people realize, says Rance Greene, a trainer who specializes in teaching storytelling techniques.

“When I’ve asked leaders how they are already using stories, they generally say things like, ‘I share stories to make personal connections with my team or bring humor into a situation.’ Leaders use stories to sell their products or to communicate company values to someone,” Greene says. These are all great uses of stories, but Greene says they can be used for more purposes than most people think.

Greene will lead a webinar on story design for the Mid New Jersey Association for Talent Development on Wednesday, February 26, from 6 to 7 p.m. Tickets are $25. For more information, visit www.midnatd.org.

“Stories are memorable,”

Greene says. “If you want people to remember your message, tell a story. Stories are actionable. They prepare you to take action. Stories are like a flight simulator. As you are consuming the story, those neurons that are firing as you listen to the story are firing when you’re out there in the workplace doing the thing that you were asked to do.

Stories prepare you to take that action.”

Stories are also emotional, which is important because emotion is required to inspire action, Greene says.

Greene will teach his method of story creation, which is adaptable to multiple business settings. The key to crafting a good story is understanding the audience. “You need to know what the characters need to be in the story, and how that character is going to connect with the audience emotionally,” he says.

“Look at your audience and ask yourself, what is their current circumstance? How are they reacting to those circumstances? And thirdly, how is your message going to make them feel? ... If you can answer those three questions, then it’s a good indicator you have a fairly good grasp on how your audience is going to react, and construct a character in similar circumstances with similar reactions to the circumstances and similar feelings.”

Crafting an emotionally resonant story can be challenging in some business environments, but still necessary. “Yes if you are presenting to a group of actuaries and you need them to do something, you need to connect with them on an emotional level,” Greene says.

“They are still people, and they do have emotions. It might be a different emotion than what you would present to a group of customer service advocates or a group of CEOS, but there is still an emotional piece to every person in the room no mat-

ter who they are.” Greene says it’s important to keep in mind that “emotion” doesn’t always mean being dramatic, and it doesn’t just mean making someone laugh or cry.

Aside from getting the characters and emotional resonance right, it is crucial to be clear about what action you want the audience to take based on the story. For example, a leader might come in and start a meeting saying something about how there has been a dip in production and tell the employees to course correct. Or they might say that clients have noticed a slip in deliverables and order the team to stick to project timelines. Or they

‘If you want people to remember your message, tell a story. Stories are actionable.

They prepare you to take action,’ Greene says. might ask if anyone has ideas about increasing performance metrics.

All of these are examples of bad calls to action because everyone leaves the meeting unclear about what to do next: “Course correcting” is too vague.

Storytelling can come to the rescue. For example, a leader might connect with the team by telling a personal story about a time he or she got overwhelmed with work, and how they got through it. Or they might bring out a customer complaint as a case study and determine why a deadline was missed.

Or they might craft a fictional story about a project manager who is finding it hard to meet deadlines,

and then ask teams for suggestions on how to help the fictional character. “The conversation then just comes alive,” Greene says.

He says leaders should not be afraid to use fiction if a true personal story or a case study isn’t appropriate. “All three are valid and useful,” he says. “People shy away from fiction, but I use fiction all the time. People shouldn’t be afraid to use fiction in a business setting.

Fiction is useful because you can make it do anything you want.”

Among the most notable storytellers of the business world was Steve Jobs. Other companies have used it to great advantage. For example, Southwest Airlines runs employees through compliance trainings that are interactive stories where trainees are asked to make important decisions as it goes along. “It gives learners an opportunity to work through that problem,” Greene says.

That example is one of several that appear in Greene’s book, “Instructional Story Design,” available on April 1. For more information, visit www.needastory.com.

Greene grew up in North Carolina, where his father was a human resources manager and his mother a teacher’s aide. His career took an unconventional path. He studied performing arts at Appalachian State University, switching majors between visual arts, music, and theater before settling on dance, and later earning a master’s in choreography. After graduation he moved to New York to join a dance company but ended up working at Goldman Sachs for a short time.

In New York his career changed abruptly. “I had an encounter with God that completely changed my life,” he says. He then became a minister, running a church in Times Square. After nine years he moved to North Carolina and then to Dallas, where he works in talent devel-

His expertise in storytelling didn’t come from the business world: it came from his ministry. “I spent a lot of time with high school kids, and the way to reach them a lot of times was through storytelling,” he says. “The Bible itself being a treasure trove of stories.”

Building the Blockchain

E

d Zabar’s company, Verify, uses blockchain in its technology, but Verif-y doesn’t bill itself as a blockchain company. When he describes what his company does, Zabar talks about how Verif-y can help verify credentials of important personnel, secure private information, and comply with rigorous privacy standards such as the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation and the California

FEBRUARY 26, 2020

Consumer Privacy Act. “There are blockchain-centric companies,” Zabar says. “We are not blockchain centric. Blockchain, for us, is a layer within our technology stack. What it does is it allows us to serve clients in a better way.”

Zabar is the guest speaker at the next meeting of the Blockchain Princeton group, scheduled for Thursday, February 27, from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. at Tigerlabs. For more information, visit www.meetup.com/Blockchain-Princeton. Verif-y, based in Philadelphia, is online at www.verif-y.com.

Verif-y is out to provide a solution to problems of user onboarding and the new rules that organizations have to follow when dealing with sensitive information. Zabar believes there is a massive market for this service, especially in the healthcare industry. On the surface, the service that Verif-y provides is simple: it allows users to upload credentials, have them authenticated, and then authorize employers or business partners to check them.

(There are already “credential bank” services that do this.) Where it gets complicated is behind the scenes, in making sure the data is secure and accurate.

Zabar says he got the idea for the company earlier in his career when he was working at an investment bank. “We had a client selling this company, and he essentially forged his credentials,” Zabar says. “Because he forged his credentials, the deal fell through. We had tried to validate the information using the archaic methods of background check companies.”

Zabar says blockchain technology has helped him build a service that allows the user to control who has access to the data and exponentially increase its accuracy. But before the blockchain means anything, the validity of the credentials has to be verified in the first place. Zabar says his company checks the sources of documents directly. For example, if a reporter claimed to have been chief editor at the New York Times, Verif-y would contact the Times directly and check if they really had worked there. If the user is lying, they get a literal red flag in their records. Too many red flags, and the user’s abilities to share information are restricted.

Shifting control of the information to the individuals whose data is being stored is in-

tended to relieve organizations of the burden of handling information.

The company was founded in 2016 and now employs about 20 people in its Philadelphia office, with 10 others working remotely.

Unlike some other blockchain startups, Verify has reached the point of having an actual product to offer and real clients buying it.

Zabar says he can’t identify the clients yet, but he has Fortune 500 companies ready to start using his product.

“We are starting to work with really large organizations,” he says. “We have been spending the last six months enabling the system to scale better to be more accurate and to be more dynamic at the enterprise level. We are serving some clients right now and we expect some of the larger clients to come in the next few weeks and months.”

Zabar understands the skepticism about blockchain technology. Although based on an older idea, the world’s introduction to blockchain came with Bitcoin, the controversial cryptocurrency that has experienced wide fluctuations in value (and little use as an actual currency of exchange) since its debut in 2008.

Champions for Business Letter from the Chair Dear Friends: I am pleased to share that the Princeton Mercer Regional Chamber of Commerce had an exceptional start to 2020. The month of January was our most successful in the Chamber’s history. We celebrated record breaking growth in revenue and attendance. New membership also ranked among the best chambers in the State of New Jersey.

We understand that the success of the Chamber is inextricably tied to a vibrant business community.

At our Changing of the Guard ceremony in January, we unveiled five strategic initiatives to support local businesses and ensure a robust local economy.

One of our key initiatives involves leveraging technology to bring resources and tools to our members’ fingertips. To that end, we hosted the event, “Princeton PitchStop: How to Convince Peo-

ple to Invest in You.” This event showcased companies as they pitched their products to a panel of investors. Held at the beautiful Grounds for Sculpture, it was designed to educate the audience about the anatomy of a pitch and attendance was at its highest yet for the program.

Similarly, please join us at the next Independent Business Alliance interactive workshop on February 26, where you will learn how to build your elevator speech. Become a member and see how we can support your success.

Visit our website at www. princetonmercerchamber. org to learn how.

We also want to wish you a Happy Black History Month! We look forward to serving you!

Member Spotlight Withum Looks to Better the Communities It Does Business With

W

ho says accountants are boring lifeless and dull — not the accountants at Withum! We have a lot of fun, here are Withum! It is an integral part of our culture! And part of that culture is to give back to our communities! It was once said that the happiest people are not those getting more, but those giving more! At Withum, we believe that community service is a necessary part of being a good corporate citizen and we enjoy giving more. Over the past several years, Withum has proudly celebrated a Withum Week of Caring (“WWoC”) program — a three-day philanthropic initiative where our team members are encouraged to give back a portion of their time by volunteering with local organizations in lieu of working in the office. These notfor-profit organizations are selected based in all communities that Withum has a presence. The feedback from our team members is that they always leave their day of volunteering feeling inspired and wanting to do more. It is definitely an awesome experience!

With so many tragedies in the world today, we find that some of them happen within our firm. Due to this happening, we developed the Staff Hardship Relief Fund.

This fund was established to provide disaster relief and emergency hardship assistance to the our staff and their immediate families. Assistance is for those who are experiencing a temporary hardship due to a significant life event. The funds are raised through partner and employee commitments. As an added bonus the firm provides a dollarfor-dollar match to the contributions. The internal community efforts that we have created within our Firm has resulted in donating over $350,000 to staff in need so far.

In addition to our Staff Hardship Relief Fund, in 2019 Withum introduced a firm-wide community out-

reach fundraising effort towards one specific organization for the entire year. This year’s focus is JDRP, the leading global organization funding type 1 diabetes research. Through this initiative we had all employees elect into a payroll deduction that took a certain dollar or percentage from each paycheck. Part of this program includes our entry level staff creating ideas and fundraising events for this cause. They really take it to the next level competing to be the highest fund raiser. These small tweaks in donation format have led to raising an extraordinary amount of money for an even better organization.

Many of our team members also volunteer as board members for nonprofit organizations. They give their time and talents to assist these organizations in their cause.

These are just a few examples of Withum, as a whole, looking to better the communities we do business in. We describe out culture through the “Withum Way” philosophy, comprised of 10 attributes and one of them is giving back! Martin Luther King, Jr. once said, “Life’s most persistent and urgent question is, What are you doing for others?”

Where the Camps Are

Cambridge School Rea

I

t was a full generation ago that kids around the world were drawn into the magical world of potions, spells, dragons, and flying broomsticks introduced by J.K. Rowling in her Harry Potter books.

Now that those kids are all grown up, they have children of their own to introduce to these magical worlds. And what better way to do that than through summer camp?

A variety of summer programs in the area offer camps focused on witchcraft and wizardry.

By far the most elaborate is Fiddleheart Academy of Witchcraft and Wizardry, located in Stockton.

Founded by Kristin Hara, a life coach and past dancer and dance educator inspired by her own daughters’ love of the Harry Potter series, the camp is staffed by educators, artists, and performers who play the roles of “professors” with such names as “Professor Hobbliknob,” “Professor Bazzleby,” and “Deputy Kaconure.”

Campers are sorted into “houses” and take classes in topics such as potions, featuring edible chemistry experiments, magical zoology and ecology, magical dueling, and the history of magic. They also play magical games and compete at quidditch, played on broomsticks.

The camp also has its own Etsy shop where it sells hand-crafted magic wands.

Held on the grounds of historic Prallsville Mills, campers also play outside in the nearby woods — known to them as the enchanted forest — and at the Delaware River.

Summer Camp, the Antidote to Modern Society

P

arenting in 2020 is seriously difficult. Trust me, I know.

It takes a level of discipline and commitment that our parents never had to deal with — mainly because of digital devices.

Then there’s Social Media — OMG! smh! Likes, friends, unfriends/unfollows, online bullying, predators, and pornography - all just clicks away if you aren’t paying attention…PAY ATTENTION!!

What is the antidote? How can parents battle this ever-growing monster, especially during summer vacation when kids have even more free time to feed their screen addiction.

There is an answer, an oasis away from screens, where children talk to each other. A step back in time, before digital data began stressing us all out: SUMMER CAMP! TRADITIONAL Summer Camp: Outdoors with grass, trees, humidity, sunscreen, bugs, and dirt. Learning how to swim, and how to hold a baseball/softball bat, a paintbrush, and a guitar. Where kids muster the courage to talk to strangers, ask for help, climb a rock wall, leap onto a stage or off a zipline platform!

And what happens when it rains? I’ll tell you what doesn’t happen — kids don’t melt like the wicked witch of the west! They actually have a BLAST jumping

in puddles, getting soaked, and playing — it’s what kids are supposed to do when they’re KIDS. Humans are not born with great social skills. These are skills we learn and practice. Babies scream when upset, eventually learning how to express themselves to their parents and caregivers. Camp continues that process. Campers are put into challenging situations, requiring them to critically think through the best possible solutions — just like real (adult) life! Sometimes they will overcome obstacles and succeed, and sometimes they will simply fail — which is a super important life lesson, achieved more often without parental interference.

Parents spend or borrow huge sums of money for college to prepare their children for life.

Comparatively speaking, an in-

vestment into Summer Camp is a bargain for the life skills it develops in a young person. Communication, collaboration, creativity, independence, making and keeping friends are “soft skills” that employers are seeking in the 21st century.

Consider giving your kids an old-school summer camp experience that they will learn from and cherish for the rest of their lives — it could end up being the wisest parental investment you ever make!

russian School of Mathematics Award-Winning Program Comes to Princeton

T

he Russian School of Mathematics (RSM), the award-winning, afterschool math program for K-12 students, is coming to Princeton!

Recently named “one of the top 10 schools” with our students “some of the brightest young people in the world” by the Johns Hopkins Center for Talented Youth, we help children of all levels excel in mathematics.

Our Story. RSM was opened in 1997 by a mother and expert teacher, both Soviet emigres, who, disappointed by the level of math education in the United States, opened a school for their own children and the children of their community. Our curriculum and methodology, perfected over the last 22 years by our team of gifted academics, is inspired by elite mathematical schools in the former Soviet Union, adapted for the American educational environment. With multiple levels for every grade, from beginner to competition, our curriculum is designed to develop each child to his or her full potential.

Today our program serves over 30,000 K-12 students across North America and has been featured in the Atlantic, Boston Globe, NPR and TED. What is russian Math? According to Russian tradition, the study of mathematics is the preeminent tool of mental development. Learn math the right way and your cognitive abilities actually improve. The top academic

minds of the Soviet Union were tasked with developing this “right way” and the resulting methods and textbooks came to be used by elite schools globally including in China, India, and Europe. In time, the Russian methodology gave rise to millions of Soviets with a deep mathematical foundation, who could think critically, creatively, and logically. The Soviet regime had unwittingly developed generations of thinkers who could see through it and who escaped its grasp the minute it loosened.

Our approach. Our program continues in the tradition of Russian math with a focus on our four pillars: 1. early Development of abstract Thinking: Studies show that children are ready for abstract thinking at an early age.

Our students begin to reason with abstract concepts in elementary school, and by middle school they are not only familiar with essential elements of algebra but can easily apply them in problem solving.

2. building Mental Flexibility: Our students build connections between concepts by working with them in multiple contexts and by learning new material based on what they already know. This empowers them with a flexibility and agility of thought as they are able to view and solve problems from multiple angles and in multiple ways.

3. Challenge: Students don’t grow when in their comfort zone,

Arts Camps Continued from page 14

so we ensure they are consistently (and appropriately) challenged. Our students become accustomed to and enjoy the idea that there are problems that require focus, thought, and persistence. We do this by regularly engaging our students with difficult and unfamiliar problems, where they must push the boundaries of their knowledge to craft a solution.

4. environment: The classroom environment is an essential aspect of our program. Guided by their teacher through the common effort of learning and discovery, students learn how to de bate, explain and verbalize their thinking to a group of like-minded peers. This not only deepens their understanding but prepares our students for university and competitive careers.

Our Princeton Location.

We’re excited to be opening our doors in Princeton this summer!

THE BEST TIME TO ADVANCE IN

Math

s fires burn hundreds of acres in the West, snowstorms bury the Rockies, and floods engulf the South simultaneously, the harsh realities of climate change prompt today’s students to search for real solutions to global warming and widespread environmental degradation.

Students in the Watershed Academy for High School Students learn about answers to some of today’s most pressing environmental issues as they engage in field research and participate in conservation projects.

These weeklong summer courses at The Watershed Institute in Pennington spark curiosity, instill passion, and provide opportunities for students to explore research and career options.

For example, during an Academy course on climate change, students channeled their energies into exploration and action.

They learned about green energy and other technological advances such as soil carbon storage and emissions control from Princeton University engineers.

In a Sept. 20 Los Angeles Times article, some of these students voiced hope after they learned about hydrogen cells that power homes and cars as well as some green architecture techniques that save water and energy.

Some participated in the global

Friday Climate Strike.

Summer 2020 will feature six Academy courses that immerse students in outdoor settings as they identify and design solutions to problems explored in the Stream Science, Climate Change, Environmental Field Science, Clean Water, Green Architecture and Environmental Advocacy offerings.

“Students are the change agents and we want them to discover skills needed to create better outcomes on vexing environmental issues,” said Jim Waltman, Executive Director of The Watershed Institute. “Not only will they gain a deeper understanding of the urgent issues and solutions, they will develop the tools needed to advocate for policy changes.”

Along coastal waterways, Academy students last summer removed micro plastics from the water and beaches to improve wildlife habitat. Learning outside, exploring topics in the lab, and diving into environmental science with field trips were some highlights for last summer’s students. The Watershed Institute

exposes students to practical solutions for improving water quality, like installing floating wetlands to absorb nutrients from a polluted lake.

Giancarlo Grullon, 15, of Trenton said he gained a broad overview on “climate change, things like hydrogen fuel cells, how greenhouse gases affect our environment, and how we need to stop climate change before it gets too hot.” One Academy student wrote in the Stream Science survey, “It helped further inspire me to get involved in stream health/biology and gave me a really good foundation of information.” Added another Academy student, “I hope I’ll be better prepared for environmental coursework and potential volunteering and job opportunities.”

Registration for the summer Watershed Academy is open to the public online at thewatershed.org/academy. Qualified individuals can receive scholarships and stipends to attend.

PRISMS

Continued from preceding page

A Close & International Community

P

rinceton International School of Mathematics and Science (PRISMS) is a coeducational independent boarding and day school for students in grades 9 to 12. PRISMS immerses a multicultural, self-motivated student body in an integrated STEM-centered curriculum and a research program that identifies and develops each student’s potential. The PRISMS approach promotes critical thinking, imagination, and deep curiosity, and enables students to ask meaningful questions and to contribute to a diverse and dynamic world.

PRISMS students learn classes with well-qualified faculty. The faculty to students ratio at PRISMS is 1 to 5. The smallclass education allows students to fully engage in meaningful discussions and establish personal relationship with the teachers.

The curriculum at PRISMS is carefully designed to prepare students in the field of STEM. All science courses at PRISMS starts at honors level, and the classes catalog goes up to postAP college level courses such as linear algebra, organic chemistry, molecular biology and data science. Additionally, the two-year research program provide students with opportunities to conduct independent research on topics of their own choice using advanced equipment like atomic force microscope (AFM), polymerase chain reaction (PCR) machine, Fourier-transform infra-

red spectroscopy (FTIR).

Outside of the classroom, we bring in speakers from renowned institutions like MIT, Princeton University, European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) and Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory Lab (LIGO) regularly to bring our students insights on ongoing ground-breaking STEM research.

Our students also participate in various clubs, organizations, sports teams and academic competition teams. Over 20 studentled clubs feature activities ranging from chess, mock trial to robotics, cooking and math modeling. Our math team ranks the second nationally on the US Math Competition Association ranking, and the First Tech Robotics team has just qualified for the state-level competition in their second year.

PRISMS students live and

learn in a close and international community. Students come from U.S., Canada, China, Spain, Korea, and many other countries, and in PRISMS they together build a family-like community that values different culture and believes in mutual understanding.

Despite our short history of six years, we have had 64 graduates attending top institutions such as Brown, Caltech, Cornell (3), Duke (2), MIT (6), Notre Dame, Berklee College of Music, Columbia, Carnegie Mellon (2), Rhode Island School of Design, Trinity College of Cambridge, UC Berkeley (6), University of Michigan (2), University of Chicago (3), Wellesley College, Rice University and many others.

hildren spend nine months of the year scheduled, tested, and often stressed.

The summer brings with it a relaxed schedule and the fun of summer camp, where each camper is encouraged just to be a kid!

Through PLAY, kids Learn to solve problems, make new friends, and discover the world around them which helps them grow. Summer Camp at the Hamilton Area YMCA offers daily activities that range from traditional camp favorites such as arts and crafts, music, sing-alongs, science lab and dance to soccer, basketball, gaga, volleyball, swimming, and so much more!

The Importance of PLAY at Camp 1. Children learn through play. Time spent on the playground teaches campers social and cognitive skills as well as enhances physical abilities such as balance.

2. Play is healthy. Activity such as playing on the soccer fields is critical for children to grow strong and healthy.

3. Play reduces stress. Playing carefree in the sprinklers provides an outlet for children to release anxiety.

4. Play is more complex than you’d think. How children learn through play has been studied extensively. Following the game rules of GAGA, for example is a form of learning.

5. Making time for play is important to cognitive, language, physical, social and emotional development. Campers experience 3 daily activities periods and 2 swim periods each day providing plenty of time for as much play as possible.

6. Outside play is critical for exploring the world. Building forts, nature hikes, playing in the sand, and climbing the traversing wall are not only healthy, but build lasting memories.

7. Play comes naturally in a camp setting. Given the time to play, at the pool, at the playground, at the pavilion, children do amazing things!

8. Play is how children learn.

Trial and error in a no stress environment provide opportunities that lead to improved self-esteem and lasting success.

Children look at camp as a fun way to spend the summer in the sun and splashing in the pool,

but parents should understand that camp allows them to reap many life benefits that will follow them through their lives long after the sun has set on their summer camp days.

We have worked hard to plan an exciting summer of interesting and engaging camps and fun special events! Our Coordinators are college graduates who are working professionals in the fields of education and child development with over 31 years of camp experience and 13 years of teaching experience And, our counselors are second to none, having had extensive training to welcome your children for the summer.

Regenerative Spine and Pain Institute Prevention & Treatment of Sports Injuries

S

ports injuries can be considered as inevitable when doing a strenuous physical activity. While doing an exercise or participating in a sports activity, a sports injury could occur especially if you play contact sports, don’t do proper warm-up exercises or haven’t been actively exercising recently.

Common Types of Sport Injuries • Sprains — This is caused by overstretching and tear of the ligament.

• Strains — This is caused by overstretching and tear of the muscles or tendons.

• Knee Injuries — It could be due to an overstretch or a tear to the muscles or tissue in the knee that interferes with the movement of the knee joint.

• Swollen muscles — this is a natural reaction to a nearby injury.

• Achilles tendon rupture — This refers to the breakage or rupture of the thin, powerful tendon at the back of the ankle. It can be sudden and severely painful.

• Fractures — refers to broken bones.

• Dislocation — refers to the dislocated bone in the body due to a sudden force that moves it from the sockets.

• Rotator cuff injury — refers to the injury or tear on the four pieces of muscle work together that form the rotator cuff.

Prevention to Sports Injuries • Warm-up exercises are a must before doing any physical or sports activity.

This is due to the fact that cold muscles are more prone to tears and overstretching while warmed up muscles are more flexible to sudden and vigorous movements that a sport may bring. It is the best way to prevent a sports injury for the muscles that can be quick in absorbing and adapting to dire body movements, bends, and jerks.

Here are more steps you can take to avoid sports injuries: • Don’t push yourself. Don’t overdo a sports activity or an exercise after a long period of inactivity for it might strain the muscles.

• Use proper equipment. Avoid using or wearing ill-fitting gears or shoes that may increase your risk of injury.

• Always cool down. Cooling down after a sport involves the same stretching and exercises while warming up.

Treatment to Sports Injuries • For mild sports injuries, the most commonly recommended

Day Camps Dr. Ronak Patel treatment is the RICE (Rest, Ice, Compression and Elevation) method to be done within the first 24 to 36 hours after the injury: The RICE method can help in reducing the swelling and bruising and can also help prevent additional pain in the first few days after the injury. There are also available over-the-counter and prescription medicines to treat sports injuries by providing relief from the pain and swelling. Talk to your healthcare provider for prescribed pain medication or if your sports injury looks or feel severe. Seek immediate emergency care if you experience the following after being injured: • Fever • Dizziness • Difficulty in breathing Regenerative Spine and Pain Institute, 666 Plainsboro Road, Suite 100D, Plainsboro.

tep up to the plate. Shoot a few hoops. Kick a soccer ball. Make a splash in a super swimming pool. Lead a cheer. Kick up your heels in a dance class, create a painting, complete a crafts project and take a fun bus ride to our optional field trips.

Those are just a few of the activities offered at Team85’s Summer Camp in Bordentown. Located in the spacious, state-of-theart Team85 Fitness & Wellness center, the summer camp welcomes girls and boys (ages 4-13) to an array of fun activities supervised by professional trainers and instructors.

Camp is open from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. and parents have the option of early drop-off and late pick up as Team85 offers free child care to members of the facility.

“A happy camper is an active camper,” says Camp Director, Amanda Douglass. “We offer a safe and fun environment with the core values of physical fitness and an emphasis on wellness, as well as cultivating good

eating and exercise habits,” she affirms. Campers develop emotional intelligence, teamwork abilities, health appreciation, leadership skills, and athletic ability, all while making new friends. More fun activities include field trips to local sports arenas and attractions.

Sports activities are held in the spacious, climate controlled Field House which includes two full size basketball courts, 80 yard turf field, as well as facilities for sports specific camps, including basketball. The aquatic center with its 25 yard pool sets the scene for professional swimming instruction and water games. All swim instructors are WSI certified and all lifeguards are CPR/ AED certified.

You can make waves at a pool party, play water games, and celebrate special occasions. Speaking of parties, campers can celebrate their birthdays any time of year with a party at Team85.

Team85 has a variety of birthday party options. The newest addition to the list is the ultimate nerf party! All birthday party packages are listed on the Team85 website.

Team85 offers set menus from which campers can purchase healthy lunches. Free snacks are provided in the morning and af-

ternoon.

During the school year, camp services are offered on school holidays where kids can get involved in a day of activities that will keep them engaged and active. These programs are called day off camps. These mini camps are great for meeting new friends, while previewing for what is to come for the summer.

“Team85 Fitness & Wellness is an independent service provider that is a one-stop shop for every individual and family that comes to us,” says Amanda Douglass. “Because we are independent, and not a franchise, we have many more options in creating services that our members both need and enjoy that are not typical of most fitness centers.

For example, there is a luxurious salon and spa on site that offers an array of luxury spa services and hair styling.” Says Amanda Douglass, “We are family friendly and family focused, helping every member to be their healthiest and at their best.” Together everyone accomplishes more. That is what the Team85 family believes in.

rts camps have come a long way in recent years.

Girls and boys of all ages, at varying skill levels and interests, get a chance to unleash their creativity and express themselves through the arts year-round at West Windsor Arts Center. Yet, it is during the less structured summer months that kids get a chance to truly discover themselves as they sample all kinds of activities and art forms, from digital and studio arts to filmmaking and musical theatre.

Camps are themed to appeal to a broad range of interests, with a focus on adventure, learning and exploration.

Why Performing arts Camps Fit the (Play) bill. West Windsor Arts Council has expanded its performing arts programming to include more summer camp options because it is the perfect time for kids to develop new skills in a relaxed atmosphere. For some kids, the idea of performing may be a little intimidating — until they try it in a comfortable and encouraging setting. For others, the chance to do what they love most, whether it’s singing, dancing or acting, as an integral part of their day instead of an hour here or there, is a dream come true. And, for all kids, performance arts camps offer these added benefits: • Build confidence • Develop self-expression • Nurture a spirit of collaboration • Improve academic performance • Demonstrate commitment • Exercise discipline • Learn to take risks “If you’re a parent at a loss arts and crafts, field trips, sports, STEM, and swimming at Rider University.

Cambridge School Prevent the Summer Slide with Cambridge School’s Summer Academic Program

W

hile summer is a time for “fun in the sun,” without regular practice and reinforcement, academic content knowledge and skill application are susceptible to regression. A plethora of research cites the importance of instruction over the summer months in order to prevent the summer slide. While some regression is expected for all children over the summer months, children with learning differences are often profoundly affected by the lapse in instruction. The best remedy for regression is to prevent it, and summer programs focusing on remedial, accelerated, or enriched learning have been shown to have a positive effect on students’ content and skill retention (Cooper et al., 2000). Cambridge School’s Summer Program offers a unique opportunity for students to continue receiving academic instruction in the morning and to

participate in a variety of enrichment activities in the afternoon.

All of our 2020 summer study programs will run from Monday, June 29, through Friday, July 24.

This four week program includes morning (9 a.m. to 12 p.m.) and afternoon sessions (1 to 3 p.m.).

2020 Programs: Morning Study Program (Grades K-9): This program consists of research based programs to improve language, reading, writing, and math. Students will learn and utilize new tools and strategies through multi-sensory and direct, explicit instruction.

Morning ACT Prep (Grades 10-12): The goal of the Cambridge School ACT Prep course is to teach students test-taking strategies, familiarize them with the ACT exam, and help alleviate test anxiety. This course is led by Cambridge School teachers who keenly understand the unique learning profiles of students with language-based learning differences and provide effective, individualized instruction.

Afternoon Intensive: Reading (Grades 3-5): Does your child

struggle with reading comprehension? Students in our reading intensive learn to analyze text, understand characters, sequence events, identify cause/effect and infer meaning, all while having a lot of fun in the process.

Afternoon Intensive: Executive Function For Teens (Grades 6-9): Join the EFforT group in the execu-lympics! Students will hone their executive function skills as they complete Olympic themed project based learning activities. This innovative program and incorporate research based strategies to improve: task initiation, planning, organization, and execution.

Afternoon Enrichment: Adventure and Exploration Club (Grades K-5): Raising a budding explorer? This program keeps students actively engaged in a wide variety of exciting outdoor adventures. Walking through streams, building rope bridges, rock climbing, and exploring local parks are just some of the adventures that will be in store for your child this summer.

ooking for a summer adventure for the performing arts or visual arts loving student in your life? Look no further than Tomato Patch!

Tomato Patch Visual and Performing Arts Workshops, held annually on the West Windsor Campus of Mercer County Community College, is one of the longest-running and most successful multi-disciplinary summer arts programs in central New Jersey.

Since 1973, more than 7,300 junior and senior high school students have spent several weeks

of their summer exploring the visual arts, dance, theater, and vocal music under the guidance of a highly qualified staff of teaching professional artists.

Graduates of the programs have proven the value of their experience in many ways over the years. Many Tomato Patchers are now professional artists, have appeared on Broadway and in television, or have decided to teach the arts as they were taught in our programs. Others have gone on to fulfill different life ambitions, yet many maintain lasting friendships formed in Tomato Patch.

Each summer, motivated high school students attend a Rider University Pre-College Program to explore their academic and artistic interests before declaring their intended major and pursuing a potential career.

High schoolers engage in projects or performances, attend special events and workshops, and learn from Rider’s distinguished faculty, alumni, accomplished industry experts and award-winning professionals. “The BRONCast Sports Media camp was an amazing experience and I learned so much. It definitely pushed me to apply to Rider,� says sophomore journalism major Dylan Manfre, who is now the sports editor of The Rider News.

These immersive summer residential programs provide a firsthand experience to college life — from eating in the dining hall and living in the residence halls to being introduced to the rigor of a college-level course.

When Timothy Bradford, a current Musical Theatre major, participated in the summer program, he found the Rider students and faculty to be supportive and welcoming. “We create a nurturing atmosphere and work to develop each student's talent, no matter if they are a beginner or have experience,� says Trent Blanton, Director of the Musical Theatre Institute.

umpkin farms and hayrides in the fall. Twinkling lights, Santa Claus, and rousing holiday parties in the winter.

Strawberry fields, school garden and farm market explorations in the spring. Field trips to sculpture gardens, local museums, Laser Tag and water play in the summer. This is a typical school year for students at Windsor Academy, the Bilingual School, located in West Windsor.

Windsor Academy (former New Oriental Education Center) is a Chinese English dual-language school for students ages 2.5 to 13, that began in 2009 with an after-school program. The program offers Chinese- and English- language classes, reserved homework time, and a wide array of fun and engaging extracurricular activities.

Dual language has been shown to have enormous benefits, as students experience cognitive enhancements and more efficient higher-level brain functions. Dual language immersion improves vocabulary, multi-tasking skills, and concentration as well as offering an added perspective and empathy for others.

In 2016, a summer camp also opened in Princeton. We are now located at the Windsor Athletic Club, a state-of-the art facility featuring newly furnished classrooms, basketball courts, swimming pools, and tennis courts.

Students also have the benefit of extensive outdoor areas to enjoy nature walks and playtime.

All of our teachers are skilled in their subject areas, and come with prior teaching experience in their respective fields. Over the years, our teachers have also developed innovative classroom instruction, including use of Smart-technology in the classroom, hands-on science and math exploration, and intensive public speaking and classroom debate experiences.

In the summer, in addition to enrichment courses in English language arts, Chinese language, science, and math, students have the option of field trips to local highlights like Grounds for Sculpture, bowling alleys, amusement parks, and science museums.

Across their classes and field trips, students might explore the solar system, debate the classification of pandas (“are they bears?”), and create crafts from items found in nature.

Extracurricular programs include sports like basketball, tennis, and water play, as well as art programs like drawing, music,

and theater. This year’s newly created theater program explores the tools of voice, body language, and imagination to create entertaining performances, including a short play, mythology, scenes and/or monologues, depending on skill, talent and passions!

Students will engage with materials like classic scripts, contemporary monologues and scenes, and learn through improvisation and fun theater games.

They will also develop the skills of clear public speaking, character development, concentration, group dynamics, conflict resolution, and increased confidence.

We are a warm, welcoming school where students call each other siblings like one big family; and where new students are welcomed into the family! Please call 609-297-4735 for more information or to schedule a tour. We would love to hear from you!

he Dance Corner (located next to McCaffrey’s in the Southfield Shopping Center in West Windsor) believes exceptional dance instruction should emphasize more than dance. From preschoolers just beginning to appreciate music and movement to seasoned preprofessional dancers, TDC offers options that encourage students to explore new styles, challenge their abilities, grow in technique, build confidence, and make lasting memories with new friends.

Owner Amy DeCesare wants her students to think of TDC as a second home, a place where they can learn while feeling supported and valued. “Some students take up to nine classes a week, with most averaging three classes a week. Often students start with just one class and then feel so empowered, they want to take more classes. Seeing the confidence my instructors instill in them is very gratifying.” TDC students hail from as far as Robbinsville, Monroe, Allentown, Montgomery, and Hamilton, in addition to the immediate area.

The Dance Corner is more than ballet. The studio strives to foster personal, technical, and artistic growth at all ages, levels, and styles. “The Dance Corner is special because we offer all types of high-quality dance instruction rather than concentrating on just one form of dance,” DeCesare notes proudly. Offering more than 54 individual classes, in multiple styles, taught by 11 instructors, TDC has a

depth of experience unmatched in the area. Instructors have professional experience with dance companies, national and international theater and dance touring programs, as well as college and community theater programs throughout the United States.

Classes are grouped by age or skill level and can run from 45 minutes to upwards of an hour.

Adults should not feel left out, with year-long and drop in class offerings. TDC offers a scholarship for boys ages six and up when registering for a co-ed class. DeCesare notes that teaching the mixed classes has been especially rewarding.

Classes are offered year round on a convenient schedule – concluding with a recital opportunity. “We believe performance is important,” DeCesare says.

For students looking to grow their confidence and performance experience through competition, TDC houses an audition-only Elite Team, which competes at the regional and national levels.

For families looking for than the traditional recital experience,

TDC is also home to the West Windsor Plainsboro Dance Company, which stages a seasonal performance of The Nutcracker Suite in addition to rotating Spring performances. See the WWPDC dancers in action in their upcoming production of The Tale of the Little Mermaid (4/5 & 4/6/20- see website for details).

If you are looking for a studio that emphasizes personal growth, relationships, and inclusion while using the most current dance education methods, TDC is the place for you. Most importantly, if you are looking for a studio that values the whole child and whole-heartedly welcomes each dancer into their family, The Dance Corner is the place for you! Contact Amy DeCesare to see the studio in action, meet the teachers, and observe first-hand what makes the Dance Corner home to so many families.

arents of soccer enthusiasts aged 7 to 14 need to mark their calendars now for the West Windsor-Plainsboro Soccer Association (WWPSA) weeklong summer soccer camps available throughout the summer beginning June 29, 2020. Experienced soccer coaches will drill boys and girls in the skills necessary to play competitively in any soccer league. “This is a chance to have professional trainers work with you on soccer.

Our goal in the club to develop soccer skills for players at all skill levels. We have a great coaching staff for our summer camps who provide instruction with a goal of increasing skills through a variety of teaching techniques. It is an opportunity for camp participants to improve their skills — their technical and tactical soccer skills — through a variety of exercises,” said Brent Nielsen, WWPSA board member.

Full day camps run from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. with a break mid-day for lunch and to swim at the community pool. Half day

camps run from 9:00 a.m. to noon. “All of our activities and games are structured for learning and fun,” Nielsen said.

“Campers will play a game at the end of each day to solidify skills learned and engage in friendly competition.”

Campers learn and reinforce fundamental soccer skills of dribbling and mastery of the soccer ball with emphasis on agility, passing, receiving, and turning.

Later in the week more advanced skills of attacking play, scoring, defensive moves and preventing scoring are emphasized.

The importance of teamwork is emphasized along with core exercises and personal fitness.

WWSPA’s goal is to provide youth and adults the opportunity to play instructional and competitive soccer at the highest level commensurate with their ability, potential, and interest.

In that light, WWPSA offers spring and fall soccer programs for pre-K through 12th grade students. Spring programs will run from April 4, 2020, to until May 30, 2020. Information about spring and fall programs can be found on the WWPSA website, adding additional opportunities for local youth.

Terhune Orchards Learning, Doing, and Fun

T

erhune Orchards provided exciting, educational and rewarding opportunities for campers. Experience life on the farm and become a farmer for the week. Activities blend learning, doing, and of course fun!

Campers will take advantage of our beautiful surroundings, streams, nature trail, and fields, get a closer look at our resident wildlife and barnyard friends. In addition to cultivation of the Children’s Garden, campers will explore the farm, harvest and sample crops in season. Wagon rides are part of the camp experience.

Terhune camps are certified by the State of New Jersey Youth Camp Standards. In their 15th summer, Terhune camps were awarded the Farm to School Excellence in Education Award by the New Jersey Department of Agriculture. Camp sessions meet Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.

For additional details or questions, call the Farm Store at 609924-2310 or visit terhuneorchards.com/summer-camp/.

Farm Camp: This hands-on program includes a variety of activities, games, crafts and field trips that will teach the campers about farm life in two one-week sessions. Activities include visiting Terhune Orchards’ fields to pick fruits and vegetables, which campers then prepare for healthy snacks, becoming friends with our animals, including gathering eggs, feeding all the animals, studying insects, identifying trees on the nature trail, water quality, discovering nature in the Chil-

dren’s garden (planting, caring and harvesting), to name a few.

Farm Camp is directed by Elaine Madigan, Terhune Orchards Education Director and Manager. Sessions: July 6 to July 10; July 13 to July 17.

Farm Explorers Camp: Campers will have a full week of activities focused around planting, caring for, and harvesting in Terhune Orchards’ Children’s Garden as well as orchards and fields. Topics cover garden preparation and planting, tool safety, weeding, watering, plant types, and harvesting. They also go behind the scenes into understanding the machinery, animals, chores, crops, and business of running a farm.

Children will study insects and pollinators, take a nature hike, and learn about water cycles.

They will also explore the farm’s natural habitats, wildlife, and ecology to understand the environmental context of the farm.

We also make sure to bring in a historical perspective to see how farming began and compare to where it is today. Throughout we play games, do activities, and keep learning fun!

Future Farmers Gardening Camp leader John Emmons is an elementary educator with more than a decade experience teaching science, environmental and garden education in Central New Jersey. Sessions: July 20 to July 24; July 27 to July 31; August 3 to August 7.

On March 15, at 4 p.m., in Richardson Auditorium on the Princeton University campus, Princeton Pro Musica will present James Whitbourn’s Annelies, a setting of selected entries from The Diary of Anne Frank for chorus, soprano solo, and a chamber ensemble comprised of piano, cello, violin, and clarinet. Led by Artistic Director Ryan James Brandau, the performance will feature soprano Lily Arbisser.

The Diary of Anne Frank has been known worldwide since shortly after its publication in 1947. Librettist Melanie Challenger and composer James Whitbourn created Annelies, the first major choral setting of the Diary. It premiered in 2005, but Whitbourn and Challenger had to wait several years before permission was granted to set the text.

When the family granted permission, with the help of Anne’s first cousin, the project became personal for Whitbourn.

“These personal family links influenced the kind of piece it was destined to be, and at times it felt as though I were putting together the music for the family's memorial service. It was to be a commemorative work, not only for Anne Frank, but for those by whose side she lived, those she watched with penetrating eyes, and those voiceless millions who shared her fate.”

into the most intimate entries made in a diary—a haven for one’s inmost thoughts.

Whitbourn’s music animates Anne’s fears, hopes, and dreams. We’re with her as her heart pounds anxiously; we’re with her as she gazes wistfully but optimistically at the blue sky outside the Annex.” Whitbourn has described the work as “musical portraiture in which the essence of a young girl is portrayed in the fragile medium of a human breath.” For Brandau, the power of this portrait takes his thoughts beyond Frank herself. “On the other hand, the music animates this particular story in a way that makes me think about the millions of other children in the world just like Anne, both throughout history and right now, who are contained, frightened, far from their home. The opportunity to enmesh ourselves in Anne’s story is also the opportunity to open our hearts to all such children.”

Brandau and Princeton Pro Musica offer this program on the 75th anniversary of the liberation of the concentration camps. Anne and her sister, Margot, perished at Bergen-Belsen, just a few weeks before soldiers liberated the camp, on April 15, 1945. Princeton Pro Musica’s performance commemorates Anne, and the millions of others lost. “Along with our commemoration,” Brandau says, “I hope we can use Whitbourn’s powerful music to celebrate Anne’s abiding, almost miraculous optimism and hope, which brought light to the pages of her diary and to the hearts of those who have read it.”

Science and History Are Birds of a Feather in Trenton Exhibit

There’s and Muse” will surely soothe your lots of stories from both.”

Perhaps the most famous avian birdie yearnings.

But the rest of the exhibit calls, split between natural history and literally. cultural history.”

One of the most pleasant aspects “There’s birds as ‘mainstay,’ in of “Fine Feathered Friends” is the

soundtrack that accompanies your visit: bird calls from a variety of species, but all heard in New Jersey.

Collected from Cornell University’s ornithology library, you’ll hear familiar backyard birds like jays, robins, cardinals, and mockingbirds, as well as not-so-familiar birds such as the loon.

The sound sets the mood for the walkthrough, which begins with the science of birds — their calls, their use of plumage, family life, nesting habits, etc. Then there’s “birds on the move,” about migratory habits of our state’s avians, some of which, like the Red Knot,

travel tens of thousands of miles each year.

Ehret worked for a while at the Wetlands Institute in Stone Harbor and participated in banding Red Knots during their springtime migration in the Delaware Bay area, particularly Cape May. “They travel from South America, all the way to the Arctic, and they stop off in Cape May to feed on horseshoe crab eggs,” he says, noting that some of the volunteers he met actually made the long journey with the Red Knot.

Shifting to the artistic aspects of the exhibit, a cornerstone of New Jersey’s cultural history of birds is

A Retrospective | Charles McVicker

Mustard Field by Charles McVicker

Viewers will see Boehm’s masterful depictions of catbirds, blue jays, robins, towhees, and sugar­ birds, just to name a few.

“We think this was the first time the Boehm porcelain birds were exhibited next to a taxidermy specimen, and some of them almost match,” Ciotola says.

“After seeing the Boehm sculptures, I was a little (intimidated) because they were beautiful artworks, and I didn’t know how they’d look side by side with our examples of taxidermy, some of which might be from the turn of the 20th century,” Ehret says. “But they really do complement each other.”

“I’m in natural history, so I collect bones and things, but in showing Boehm’s pieces, I was blown away by how realistic and how well done they were, and it really gave me an appreciation of a subject matter I didn’t know about,” he says.

The exhibit continues with “birds in silk,” antique examples of needlework, all incorporating birds of our state, and all done by school girls from New Jersey.

“This was another opportunity to bring out pieces that have rarely been on display,” Ciotola says.

Yet another aspect of “Fine Feathered Friends” is “birds in wood,” a focus on New Jersey’s decoy carving traditions, which includes the Shore or Coastal School, and the River School, based around Trenton.

In addition, in and around the exhibit are “favorite feathered friends,” familiar species like the crow and Great Horned Owl, chosen because of their widespread appeal.

Ehret’s favorite from this group is the spotted sandpiper, that tiny creature you see running along the ocean’s edge at the beach.

“They’re interesting for a couple reasons, for one, they’re found in waterways across the country, not just near the shore,” he says. “But also, they have a different life history. The males take care of the nests and eggs, whereas the female will breed with four or five different males — quite a role reversal.”

Most of the exhibit celebrates the abundance of favorite birds in the Garden State, but the issue of species reduction and extinction is addressed as well.

“By displaying extinct species like passenger pigeons and a Carolina parakeet, the exhibit also hopes to inspire an appreciation of birds and their importance in our world, and the need for continued wildlife preservation in the future,” says Ehret.

A small installment at the end of the exhibit shows now-extinct passenger pigeons both taxidermied and crafted by Boehm, as well as an unusual Stangl ceramic of the para-

keet species once seen in New Jersey and all along the Eastern seaboard, also extinct.

“We try not to end on a sad note, but we want to use it as a call to action, since we’ve lost entire bird populations since the 1970s,” Ehret says.

According to recent studies, nearly three billion fewer birds exist in North America than did in 1970. Experts say collisions with buildings is a major cause for the decline.

“People say, ‘what can one person do?’ and fortunately there are things we can do,” he adds. “For example, New York City just passed legislation for the construction of skyscrapers (stipulating) the need to use a special kind of glass to reduce the accidents birds have.”

Indeed, last year the New York City Council approved an initiative requiring new buildings and major renovations to meet construction standards that will reduce the risk of bird collisions.

“It’s about changing our habits (just a little) to preserve the natural world,” Ehret says. “We hope this is one thing people might take this away from the exhibit.”

‘By displaying extinct species,’ Ehret says, ‘the exhibit also hopes to inspire an appreciation of birds and their importance in our world, and the need for continued wildlife preservation.’

Ehret, 40, says half of his family has been in central New Jersey for generations, at one point in Trenton. More recently, his grandfather was the mayor of Wall Township, and his dad was a policeman in Howell. His mom was the bookkeeper for a local fire alarm supplier called Fire Security Technologies.

He grew up in Spring Lake Heights, just minutes from the beach and ocean. Currently he lives in Hamilton Square.

“There are picture of me in my playpen, on the beach,” he says.

“Living so close to the ocean really instilled a love for the natural world. Aside from the beach, my dad and uncles would take me to my grandparents’ place (in Wall) and we’d look for shark teeth at Shark River Park.”

Ehret recalls having some gifted elementary school teachers who also fostered his love for natural history.

“So much (of my interest) came from them and their sharing of everything about natural history, with me and my classmates,” he says.

Porcelain bluejays with a chameleon by Boehm.

His appreciation for the ocean, bays, marshes, rivers, and creeks motivated Ehret to choose marine biology as his major at Richard Stockton University in Pomona.

“I said to myself, ‘since I grew up on the beach, I want to have a job where I can be near the shore,’” he says.

Ehret earned his bachelor of science degree in 2001, then pursued graduate and doctoral studies at the University of Florida in Gainesville.

He had shifted his interest from marine biology to paleontology, focusing on fossils in modern tortoises for his master’s and fossil sharks for his Ph.D. in interdisciplinary ecology, 2010.

After his time in Florida, he took a job as curator of paleontology for the Alabama Museum of Natural History in Tuscaloosa, but after a few years there, he really hankered to return to the Garden State.

“When the job at the State Museum became available, I was also thinking that my family was here, and I wanted to be close to them,” Ehret says. “I’m so happy to be back in New Jersey.”

It’s almost a full circle experience for Ehret to be at the State Museum. He admits he didn’t visit the NJSM as a youngster, but there is one piece here he recognizes from his childhood.

“When I was little, my grandmother used to take me to Princeton, when they had more of a natural history museum there,” he says, adding that when Princeton ended its paleontology degree, some of the items in its collection came to the State Museum.

“The Elk Moose we have here on permanent loan came from the Princeton museum,” he says. “It was the first fossil skeleton I saw as a kid, and now I see it every day at work.”

He is also pleased to be working in a museum because it’s a place where he can give back the enthusiasm for the natural world his teachers gave to him.

“We have many school children visiting the museum, and being able to share my knowledge with the kids, passing it on to the next generation, is something that really makes me happy,” Ehret says.

Musical Sundays in Cadwalader Park with George

S

unday visitors stopping to see “If These Quilts Can Talk” at the Trenton City Museum in Cadwalader Park’s Ellarslie Mansion can expect an extra helping of art — thanks to pianist George Dabrowski.

The Hamilton-based musician is there at the museum’s Yamaha baby grand piano most Sundays between 1 and 4 p.m.

“I can’t say I entertain,” says Dabrowski, 73, about the weekly sessions he started in 2007. “I play quietly as background music.”

But, he is quick to add, there are some people — mainly older — who just sit and listen.

“I tend to play music from the 1920s to the ’50s and some original compositions,” he says about his repertoire. “I also do some improvisations because I don’t want to bore the regular Ellarslie volunteers. So I try to play to different music.”

Dabrowski started playing at the museum when he retired from the railroad after 33 years. That includes Penn Central, Conrail, and finally NJ Transit.

“I was getting rather sedentary,” he says. “And I made the conscious effort to play music — especially at nursing homes and assisted living facilities,” such as Acorn Glen.

And while residents there generally enjoy his playing, some complain about him competing with their television watching. “You have to have an ironclad ego,” he says.

The Hightstown-raised pianist lived in different areas of the country before moving to Hamilton more than 30 years ago. He lives near the Hurry Back Inn. He says the idea of playing at TCM came to him when he saw a piano in the first floor gallery. “I went over and asked if I could play.

The fellow who ran the place was a bit hesitant, but I’m still there.”

And it seems to have paid off. In addition to providing live background music for art lovers, he seems to have struck a chord with some donors. “There have been a couple of quiet contributions to the Trenton Museum Society from people who enjoyed my playing. It was greatly appreciated by the museum society and rather touching to me.”

But otherwise, Dabrowski, says, “I’m just part of the furniture.”

And while he calls his playing “pedestrian,” his music was informed by a professional. “My father (Waldemar Dabrowski) was a conducting student at the Curtis Institute. There were only two (conductors) who graduated that year. The other was Leonard Bernstein.”

Calling him an “exceedingly fine pianist,” Dabrowski says his father didn’t follow a musical career. “He went into electronics after World War II, something he learned in the military. He said, ‘Music was a good way to starve to death,’ so he did it on the side.”

That included playing at home and regularly at the White Marsh

by Dan Aubrey Country Club outside Philadelphia. “He played dining and dancing music. He had a trio. He wasn’t famous. He wasn’t interested in performing.”

But others were, and the older Dabrowski received an invitation from a Curtis classmate who also happened to be the concertmaster of the New York Philharmonic.

“He offered (my father) a job touring. He thought about it, but it was too much time away from the family. He didn’t want to get into that life traveling.”

Dabrowski takes pleasure in recounting his father’s artistry. “People who know their classical music are amazed when I tell them that he studied with a concert pianist who got tired of performing and was one of the finest of his day, Leo Ornstein” — also a composer ranked by the New York Times as an equal to Igor Stravinsky, Arnold Schoenberg, and Trenton’s George Antheil. Dabrowski’s father was also friends with the late Willy Kapell — called by the Times “the most prodigiously gifted and exciting American pianist of his generation.”

Dabrowski says his father was from Philadelphia. His mother, a nurse in the army and at Princeton Hospital, was from outside Hightstown. The two met during World War II at a Florida military base where his father was playing piano.

They married and lived in New York City, where George was born, then moved to a farm outside Hightstown to be close to both their parents and families.

About his own musical training, the divorced stepfather of two adult sons says, “I had piano lessons for a few years, along with my two brothers. We lost interest quickly when we had to practice. I also studied oboe in high school. That kept me out of Vietnam — I played in a military band in 1969.”

Dabrowski says his musical taste is a blend of standards, classics, new works, and things “my father would play in the evening. A lot of stuff I play now I remember him playing.”

He also plays “a little bit of Rachmaninoff, the 17th and 18th variations on a theme by Paganini.

The 18th is a very lovely piece. The 17th is difficult and took me a year to learn and memorize. I’m not a pianist by training. The training I had was exceedingly elementary and not particularly helpful.”

In 1980 Dabrowski started “fooling around” with ragtime music. When he was learning the “Maple Leaf Rag” he decided the work needed a musical introduction and created one. That in turn inspired the creation of series of ragtime-styled compositions. “I wrote out about 30 and there’s another 30 that I play that I didn’t write out — something I should do

Piano Man: George Dabrowski, above, performs at Ellarslie every Sunday. Music is in his genes. His father, Waldemar, is pictured in the center of the second from the top row with his Curtis Institute conducting class, which also included Leonard Bernstein, top left. before I croak.”

Although he isn’t a known composer, he says that his compositions are starting to be recognized in ragtime music circles. “A couple of musicians around the country play my music. One was playing at a ragtime music event and someone came up and said, ‘What do you think of Dabrowski’s music?’”

And while the pianist likes the story, he says he is indifferent to the answer. “If someone likes (my music), they like it. If they don’t, they don’t.”

The same is true about playing at the Trenton City Museum. “When I play there, there is no pressure on me. If someone asks for something, if I know it, I’ll play it.” And if he is unsure about a musical arrange-

ment, he has help at the tip of his fingers. “I can use my smartphone to find a song, write down a bridge and key changes, and then I’ll have it.”

Yet while Dabrowski helps keep the mood bright at Ellarslie, he is also dealing with some unseen challenges. “I have severe arthritis in my right hand that makes (playing) kind of tricky. It gets a little harder to play. And if you get to be over 70, your memory gets a little fishy, and it is tiring to play for hours.”

Then there is also a disappoint-

When he plays at Ellarslie, ‘there is no pressure on me,’ Dabrowski says. ‘If someone asks for something, if I know it, I’ll play it.’

ment he silently harbors. “When people come in and walk around for five minutes and leave — they don’t know what they’re missing.

It takes time to look at art.”

Looking forward, he says he is adding to his repertoire to help keep his mind sharp, and except when he is visiting his granddaughters he plans to keep his Sunday date at the museum.

Or as he sums it up, “Unless they disinvite me, I will play there as long as I can.”

Life in the Fast Lane

O

Edited by Diccon Hyatt

ncosec, a Penningtonbased biotech company that is developing immunotherapy for skin and breast cancer (U.S. 1, May 22, 2019), has formed a strategic partnership with two companies and received $30 million in funding.

The cash infusion will help Oncosec carry on clinical trials of its product candidate, TAVO, which, is an immunotherapy agent injected directly into tumors using a device that the company has developed.

Oncosec, with just 15 employees in its Main Street headquarters, has partnered with Boston-based biopharmaceutical company Sirtex to market TAVO if and when it wins FDA approval. Oncosec CEO Daniel J. O’Connor said Sirtex’s success in marketing its own product, tiny porcelain spheres that help deliver drugs to tumors, indicates that it could be successful in marketing Oncosec’s product, part of which is a medical device. Oncosec will pay a royalty “in the low single digits” to Sirtex for marketing.

The second company, China Grand Pharma (also a minority shareholder in Sirtex) obtained a license to market TAVO in the Asian market outside Japan.

O’Connor said the investors paid Oncosec $2.50 a share, a premium over its stock price. The transaction resulted in CGP owning 45 percent of Oncosec stock, and Sirtex another 8 percent. Oncosec’s shareholders approved the deal. “At the moment, biotech companies, when they raise capital, are giving discounts to the stock price and giving warrants as sweeteners to the deal,” O’Connor said.

“We avoided all of that.”

CGP will conduct the clinical trials necessary to bring the drug to market in China, and Oncosec will collect up to a 20 percent royalty.

Oncosec will also obtain access to the clinical data generated by CGP’s studies. “Clinical data is expensive, and getting it in any market is very helpful,” O’Connor said. “We will be able to use it in the U.S. and Europe and Japan and other markets.” O’Connor says the Chinese market is “impenetrable” for U.S. companies without working with a local partner.

O

’Connor said Oncosec was doing well on other fronts. Many executives in biotech business in general are feeling nervous about the results of the upcoming presidential election. BioNJ, a pharmaceutical trade group, has been lobbying against legislation to control drug prices. O’Connor said he is less concerned about that issue because TAVO would be cost-effective to manufacture. “We have the opportunity to have that reflected in pricing,” he said.

In addition to its study on TAVO, in which the drug is being administered in combination with Merck’s Keytruda immunotherapy agent, Oncosec is testing its candidate’s safety and effectiveness against a particularly treatment-resistant form of breast cancer called triplenegative breast cancer.

O’Connor expects the deal will result in further expansion of Oncosec’s New Jersey presence. (The company also has a lab in San Di-

ego, where it was founded.) Even if the company outgrows its office space, O’Connor anticipates staying in New Jersey, thanks in part to the state’s Net Operating Loss program, which Oncosec has taken advantage of. TNOL is an economic development program that allows research and development companies to raise cash by “selling” their losses to other companies, which can claim them for tax purposes. O’Connor said Oncosec has made $800 to $900,000 from TNOL, raising capital without having to sell stock.

“New Jersey is the only state in the U.S. that offers that program,” he said. “It’s a really tangible incentive.”

The headquarters of Oncosec is a non-traditional one for a pharmaceutical company. Oncosec occupies a 19th-century building that was a fire house and a town hall at different points in its history.

O’Connor says that if they outgrow the space, they will likely seek another “atypical business environment.” He said it is cost-effective compared with a sterile and isolated corporate office park.

Keeping overhead low is critical for a company like Oncosec that needs to use all its resources on gathering clinical data in an effort to get its product to market. The board table was bought from a Crate & Barrel outlet store for $90.

“We’re always looking for ways to be efficient,” O’Connor says.

No Housing for Hughes Tract

A

tlantic Realty has no plans to build houses on the Howard Hughes tract, a 558-acre property on the corner of Route 1 and Quakerbridge Road.

That’s what the developer, who purchased property last year, is telling West Windsor Township officials.

Atlantic purchased the tract — the former American Cyanamid site — from the Howard Hughes Corp. for $40 million in October.

Before its sale, the tract was the subject of an ongoing lawsuit

by Howard Hughes against West Windsor, challenging its zoning.

The developer was pushing a plan to build a mixed-use project with up to 2,000 residential units, retail businesses, and commercial offices.

The property is one of the largest contiguous undeveloped

parcels on the East Coast and has sat vacant since 2004.

The township is currently in the process of approving an amended master plan. West Windsor Mayor Hemant Marathe said Atlantic is looking at uses that are consistent with the new master plan.

Those uses include research and development labs and pilot plant facilities; corporate and professional offices; data processing and computer centers; limited manufacturing; warehousing; distribution centers; conference centers; hotels; banks; limited retail establishments; health clubs, fitness centers, and indoor-outdoor recreation centers; veterinary offices; urgent care and out-patient surgical facilities; and gas stations with convenience stores.

The master plan also recommends that no more than 150,000 square feet of retail space be permitted on the tract, and that bigbox retail and strip retail developments “are strongly discouraged in this district.” gether to earn regulatory clearance to import CytoSorb into China under the “fast-track” review process created by Chinese regulators to respond to the 2019 novel coronavirus outbreak.

CytoSorbents will donate initial CytoSorb devices and provide product, training, and support to CMS to introduce CytoSorb initially into four hospitals in the Wuhan, China, area. The therapy will be evaluated in severe COVID-19 coronavirus patients with a systemic inflammatory response who are being treated with either continuous renal replacement therapy or Continued on page 53

“We are excited to collaborate with CMS to bring CytoSorb to the patients and physicians in China that are dealing with this devastating COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic,” said Chris Cramer, vice president of business development of CytoSorbents. “To date, this infection has killed approximately 2 to 3 out of every 100 patients it infects, mainly by causing severe lung injury and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), shock, and multi-organ failure.

“Though CytoSorb has not yet been used to specifically treat patients infected with the COVID-19 coronavirus, it has been used to help treat shock, ARDS, multi-organ failure, and other complications of cytokine storm and excessive, deadly inflammation in thousands of patients with both bacterial and viral infection and sepsis across the world.”

those stricken at the epicenter of the outbreak, just one of the many areas in China that we serve. We believe that CytoSorb may provide physicians a powerful new approach to help patients who are suffering from severe coronavirus infection.”

The clinical features of the COVID-19 coronavirus, relationship to cytokine storm, and potential role of CytoSorb in treating patients suffering from severe coronavirus infection were described by the company recently (U.S. 1, January 29, 2020).

Furthermore, the use of extracorporeal therapies, such as CytoSorb, were highlighted in a recent publication in Lancet Respiratory Medicine by Drs. Claudio Ronco, Paolo Navalesi, and Jean Louis Vincent, titled, “Coronavirus epidemic: preparing for extracorporeal organ support in intensive care.”

These publications provide the rationale to potentially use CytoSorb, the first specifically-approved extracorporeal cytokine adsorber in the European Union, in this setting. CytoSorb is distributed in 58 countries worldwide, and is available in Hong Kong, Vietnam, Malaysia, Germany, United Kingdom, Italy France, Spain, Belgium, United Arab Emirates, India, Russia, Finland, Sri Lanka, and Australia where patients infected with the virus have been reported.

Capable and willing to learn your systems if I am not already familiar with them. My resume ranges from being a Peace Corps volunteer to Financial Aid Officer at a major university to Advertising Account Executive to music producer to English Instructor and there are quite a few things that I’m leaving out.

With the loss of my mother my financial needs have changed considerably and I now have obligations that I did not have before. I’m not cheap because I value my worth and so will you. Not being choosy, but I would prefer not to be considered for any positions in MLM, telemarketing or sales of insurance or new products entering the marketplace. I’ve done the above successfully, but currently those positions would not satisfy my professional or financial goals. I live in Hamilton and would prefer a position nearby but anywhere in Mercer County or nearby would be fine. Available for immediate hire. Please contact me via email at cwilson790@yahoo.com and let me know what your needs are. Thank you for your consideration.
