the event. Pascale said, “We want to toast and celebrate them. We have such wonderful residents.” Larkey added, “It warms our heart and makes this community what it is.” Pascale and Larkey presented the seniors with gifts of flowers and Caldwell Library tote bags. And students from Wilson School K-Kids, affiliated with the Kiwanis Club, created handmade birthday cards. Accordion stroller, Eric Kerssen, kept the party going with great tunes including: “The Way You Look Tonight,” “That’s Amore,” “Sunny Side of the Street,” “Young at Heart,” “When Irish Eyes Are Smiling,” “It’s Now or Never,” “Spanish Eyes,” and the top song from 1927 – one hundred years ago – “Someone to Watch Over Me.” And, of course, “Happy Birthday” was played while birthday cake was passed out. Mary Nolfi, 95, of Caldwell, said she attributes her long life to being physically and mentally fit. Weather permitting, she walks every day. “God’s been good,” she said. Kay Pollala, 92, has been a Caldwell resident for 40 years. “Moderation in everything,” is her mantra.

Betty Matey, 102, of Caldwell, feels she’s lived a long life because she has “that good Irish blood.” Marie Gallo, 90, of Caldwell, believes she’s lived this long because of health and happiness. Joe Emmanuelle, 96, of West Caldwell, thanks his family of seven children for keeping him going. Jane Young, 95, of Caldwell, swims five days a week and does water aerobics. She’s a charter member of the Caldwell Community Center for the past 17 years. She also enjoys reading and going out. Young lives in the same apartment complex as Peter Pirrello, 92, who was sit-

ting at her side. She said, “He’s my boyfriend, but we don’t live together.” According to Young, she and Pirrello have been dating for 20 years. Two husbands predeceased her. Jokingly, she said, “My daughter worried that I’d kill him [Pirrello] too.” Tom Calandra, 100, said being a hard worker kept him young. He worked in construction and always exercised. Toby Santoro, 103, of Caldwell, was the oldest of the celebrators. He said he stays young by “eating the right foods – Italian, pasta, and bread.” Former library board member, Carol Shenuski,

attended the event in honor of her late mother, Eleanor Shenuski who passed away December 2015 and would have been 95 this year. The Caldwell Public Library celebrated their centennial on June 17 with a plaque unveiling designating the library as Caldwell’s First Historic Landmark Building. The library was designed by noted local historian and architect, Lynn G. Lockward, and built with a donation from philanthropist Andrew Carnegie. It opened its doors to the public 100 years ago.

Caldwell Library Invites Teens To Capture Town’s History

By Lisa McNamara ith a smartphone and a passion for photography, teens can make history. They can capture Caldwell and celebrate its centennial by entering Caldwell Public Library’s Teen Photo Contest. Winning photographs will be placed in the library’s time capsule during a ceremony in November. The contest, inspired by the centennial, is an opportunity for young people to let their voice be heard and to chronicle life in Caldwell in 2017. The winning photographs will ensure that in 50 years, when the capsule is opened, people will have images that illustrate and convey present-day Caldwell, according to Claudine Pascale, library director. She explained that the con-

test was designed to give future generations a past view of Caldwell through the perspective and eyes of young photographers, and a “way for us to engage the teens in the town.” The exhibit, “Caldwell: From Dawn to Dusk,” will display the entries in the library for the month of November. Photographs must be of a place, item or person located in Caldwell, taken between April 1 and Sept. 22, 2017. Pascale encourages students to recognize landmarks or unusual, unique scenes and urges them “to be creative and to think outside the box.” A description must be included with each entry. “The short blurb is just as important as their photo,” according to Pascale. “I think the photo contest is a really great way to

give kids the opportunity to become part of the community and to highlight what makes Caldwell a special place,” said Shannon Silverthorne, a volunteer at the library. Silverthorne, who is participating in the contest, suggested some snap-worthy sites: Grover Cleveland Park, James Caldwell High School and Bonnel Field, the libraries, the Gazebo, First Presbyterian Church, Memorial Park and either of the pools. Teens can also connect to the community by volunteering at the library or joining the library’s Teen Action Committee. TAC meets monthly and organizes events and programs, such as scavenger hunts in Grover Cleveland Park, movie nights and Harry Potter birthday parties that benefit both the library and

Caldwell. Middle school and high school students who live in the Caldwell-West Caldwell School District can participate in the contest. Students who attend the West Essex Regional School District, Trinity Academy, and Mount Saint Dominic Academy are encouraged to

enter as well. Local photographers Bruce White and Janet Markman are set to be judges, along with Pascale. Local schools and Boy Scout troops, Caldwell University, the Caldwell Police Department, the Department of Public Works and the Kiwanis are just some

Caldwell Art Therapy Program Receives Grant

aldwell University has received a grant from The Healthcare Foundation of New Jersey to expand its graduate programming in art therapy. The $95,600 grant will support the expansion and modernization of art therapy program space on campus and establish new supervisory fellowships at mental health agency internship sites in the Newark area. A new dedicated Art Therapy Center will feature a dynamic learning environment with workshop and

classroom spaces equipped with state of the art technology, such as digital smartboards, tablets and iMac personal computers and collaborative office and art display areas. Caldwell University graduate student interns will work with vulnerable children at the Youth Consultation Service and with senior citizens at the Jewish Community Housing Corporation of Metropolitan N.J. at sites in the Newark area. Annette Vaccaro, Caldwell University associate professor of counseling and

clinical coordinator, said Caldwell student interns provide more than 9,500 hours annually at sites ranging from physical rehabilitation to pediatric units to schools and programs that serve those facing mental health problems. “This grant will allow us to reach more sites and the most vulnerable populations who may not have the language to express themselves in words, but can accept an offer to make art for self-expression and healing,” she said.

Frutta Bowls Grand Opening In Livingston Offers Freshest Picks Around

By Cheryl Conway he choices may be endless, but no matter the picking, the fruits and veggies offered at Frutta Bowls in Livingston will delight the palate and nourish the body. The health- crave of eating fruits and vegetables in a bowl is spreading in New Jersey and throughout the country. Frutta Bowls just opened up on S. Livingston Ave. in Livingston on June 12, where the former location of Rita’s Ices was located. A franchise operation, Frutta Bowls in Livingston is the sixth store to open in N.J. Owners Gionna Marotta of Caldwell, a graduate of James Caldwell High School, and Morgan Mason of Cranford are no strangers to working as a team.

The pair worked hand-inhand on Drew University’s women’s lacrosse team in Madison before graduating in 2017. “The newest craze of bright fruit bowls mixed with creative fruit combinations has hit Essex County- Livingston,” the owners announce. “These delicious acai, pitaya, and kale bowls that are healthy and Instagram worthy, are bringing happiness and positive vibes to each and every customer.” Mason and Marotta “are top collegiate athletes that have trained hard and believe in living a healthy lifestyle,” they say. “Both are committed to create a fantastic experience for their customers and love helping others in their community.” Their idea to enter the

arena of entrepreneurship stems from another one of their teammates, Brooke Gagliano of Freehold, the founder of Frutta Bowls who opened the first store in Howell. As stated on its website, “When our founder, Brooke Gagliano, first tried acai berry pure, she was floored. Brooke is an extremely driven person who had endeavored and succeeded in becoming a top collegiate athlete by training hard and living a healthy lifestyle. But that healthy life style was not always filled with pleasant tastes. After college, Brooke was searching for what she could do in life to meld what she had committed most of her life towards and a career. After trying acai for the first time on a vacation, she immedi-

ately began to incorporate it into her daily meals at home and from there Frutta Bowls was born.” At the age of 22, Marotta and Mason were inspired to follow in Gagliano’s path and become franchisee partners. With Mason’s major in economics and Marotta’s major in business studies, these two women have the perfect recipe for success in their business. On top of that, their product is not only tasty but fresh and so healthy. Frutta Bowls specializes in acai, pitaya and kale bowls along with oatmeal bowls and a plethora of smoothie options. Its most popular bowls are the Frutella Bowl and Frutta Bowl. The Frutella Bowl is continued on page 7

Rolling Thunder Provides Awareness And Helps Veterans In Need

By R.E. Wagner end them home! We will not forget!” This is just a handful of statements rising above the steady rumble of passing motorcycles during the demonstrations, community events and charity drives organized across the country by the non-profit organization known as Rolling Thunder. In 1987, former United States Marine Corps Corporal Ray Manzo, U.S. Army Sergeant Major John Holland, Marine First Sergeant Walt Sides, and Sergeant Ted Sampley had lunch together at a diner in Somerville. They were meeting to discuss an unsettling issue that they, as servicemen, felt wasn’t being acknowledged enough in certain military circles. By the end of the meeting, they parted ways with a mission in mind: to bring full accountability for the ‘Prisoners Of War’ and ‘Missing In Action (MIA)’ of all U.S. wars. For Diane Malanga, the secretary of Rolling Thunder’s 3rd Chapter in New Jersey and an official member for almost a decade,

“

Rolling Thunder’s goal hit close to a place close to her heart. “They were deeply troubled knowing these men and women were forgotten,” explained Malanga, “thinking of their families who have not had a chance to have closure. My father served in World War II and Korea and my son just left for boot camp.” Since World War II, more than 83,000 MIA cases have remained unresolved within military files. An MIA is a casualty classification assigned to combatants and prisoners of war (POW) who are reported missing during wartime. They may have been killed, wounded or captured. If deceased, neither their remains nor grave site have been positively identified. For these four veterans, 83,000 unaccounted soldiers left overseas on distant battlefields was an outrage. “They said we have to take a stand and do something to raise awareness,” Malanga continued. On May 29, 1988, Corporal Manzo recruited 2,500 men and women from all over the nation to attend Rolling Thunder’s first pub-

lic event held in Washington D.C. There, they assembled peacefully in the parking lot of the Pentagon and rode through the Capital on a predetermined route that led them to the Lincoln Memorial. Since then, Rolling Thunder has grown into an established national organization. During their most recent rally in 2017, almost a million people attended to show their patriotism. And with approximately 10,000 active members spread out across the country among 94 chapters in 33 states, Rolling Thunder has no plans on slowing down. The non-profit’s rosters are filled not only with veterans and active duty military personal, but their families, friends and those who seek to honor the soldiers who never made it home. In New Jersey alone, there are four Rolling Thunder chapters consisting of hundreds of members. The Garden State is also home to Rolling Thunder’s National Headquarters located in Lebanon. “I joined the chapter three in 2008,” Malanga said, before sharing her fond memory of her first event

with Rolling Thunder at the Community Living Center in Lyons. “There were snacks and karaoke, the veterans just loved it. The music, the visit, was so awesome for

them.” Malanga reminisced, “One of the most rewarding parts of being a member is making the difference for a veteran. I was hooked from that moment.” In addition to raising

awareness of their mission statement to bring home missing soldiers, Rolling Thunder Chapters across the nation provide financial support to help veterans in continued on page 10

Six Ways To Help Prevent Bullying

utting an end to bullying is everyone’s responsibility. Whether at home, school or elsewhere, it’s important that we’re proactive. Here are five ways that kids and parents can do their part. 1. Don’t be a bystander. It’s true that it takes a lot of courage to stand out from the crowd and defend a victim of bullying. After all, the risk is that you’ll become the next target simply for speaking up. But reporting bullying and being there for someone who needs it are actions you’ll be proud of for the rest of your life. 2. Stop sibling bullying at home. You may think it’s harmless, but it’s not. Disdainful eye rolling, relentless teasing, humiliating taunts, hitting and verbal abuse directed at a sibling can cause depression and anxiety. Make sure your home is a safe place for everybody who lives there. 3. Enlist the help of adults. If you see a need for increased adult supervision at highrisk times and places at school or at home, ask for help from a trusted adult. 4. Get on board with an anti-bullying campaign at school. These campaigns show kids that bullying is not cool and won’t be tolerated any longer. Make an anti-bullying banner and use social media to advertise the

fact that you stand up against verbal and physical violence. 5. Parents: get involved. If your child is a victim of bullying, you need to take the situation seriously. Schools, the police and child psychology experts vigorously object to the belief that bullying is a childhood rite of passage. If the problem doesn’t stop, talk to the school authorities, and then to the police if there are no further improvements. At home, be vigilant about sibling bullying, and make it stop. 6. Pay attention to cyberbullying. Those who use cell phones, internet or other devices for social media interaction open themselves up to the latest form of bullying. Parents, be aware and get involved. Teach your child proper usage of these devices and reinforce that sending any text, message or photo that is cruel, hateful or threatening is as harmful as face to face bullying. Learn about the internet and pay attention to what your child is doing online. All users should be taught cyberethics and the law to prevent cyberbullying. Don’t be a victim. Don’t be a cyberbully. Bullying is no longer seen as a normal rite of passage for children; it’s a preventable behaviour that we can eradicate through education, awareness and action.

Non Profit Accepting Monetary Support And New Donations For Care Packages

By Cheryl Conway ontinued support from the community has helped to save this non-profit organization in providing services to victims of sexual assault for more than a dozen years. SAVE, a non-profit program founded through the Family Service League counseling agency, provides comprehensive services to victims and their families of sexual assault. Established in 2004, SAVE was formerly called the Essex County Rape Care Center. Through financial support and donations from the community, SAVE has been able to maintain its services such as its 24-hour emergency hotline, emotional support, counseling services, prevention education presentations and rape care packages to victims. Kearny Bank in Caldwell is collecting items for SAVE during the months of August and September in its office. Items can be dropped off at 417 Bloomfield Avenue, Caldwell. Call 973-226-7911 for more information. SAVE is in the need of new items in the sizes of large and extra-large. Sweat pants, sweat shirts, women’s cotton underwear, socks, deodorant, feminine products, tooth brushes, tooth paste, bottles of water and granola bars are in greatest need. “When we go to hospitals we bring with us a rape care package,” says Christine Ferro-Saxon, executive director of SAVE, mostly to provide change of clothes and necessities for the victim “so they can wash up.” It is customary for the police to collect all the clothing worn by the victim after

an incident and the victim is told “not to brush their teeth. To wash up is the worst thing you could do.” As a member of the Essex County Sexual Assault Team, SAVE provides comprehensive services to victims. Other members of that team include Confidential Sexual Violence Advocates, law enforcement and forensic nurse examiners. “We come from start to finish,” says Ferro-Saxon. When a victim goes to one of the four sexual assault regional team hospitals, which include St. Barnabas in Livingston, University Hospital in Newark and Newark Beth Israel Medical Center of Mountainside Hospital in Montclair, “the team is activated,” says Ferro-Saxon. “We are the emotional support for the team during that process,” says Ferro-Saxon. “We accompany victims through the evidence collection process at several area hospitals. We go with them,” to the police department to make a report, “then they are referred back to us in Montclair for counseling services. We are there from the start then they come back.” SAVE also operates a 24-hour emergency hotline from callers who are anonymous to talk to a trained advocate to get information and emotional support. “We recommend people call to get their options as soon as possible,” says Ferro-Saxon. “It’s confidential; they don’t have to give their name. They can call us anonymously and ask questions.” Bilingual advocates and therapists are provided. Calls are received, not only from victims of sex-

ual assault, but from professionals such as nurses, college personnel and police officials seeking more information on victims or resources, she adds. SAVE also serves as an outreach resource to the community providing prevention education work at schools, colleges and community centers. “We customize presentations to age groups,” says Ferro-Saxon, covering topics such as healthy relationships and dating, to “educate young people to minimize the victims of rape.” According to Ferro-Saxon, “We are the only program in the county that services survivors of sexual assault.” Before SAVE came into play, a Safe And Sound Program was offered through University Hospital, says Ferro-Saxon, but services were not as comprehensive. “Every county in New Jersey has a rape care center,” she says. “Essex was the last one to have a program. Essex has one of the highest rates of sexual assaults. Family Service League saw it was necessary to fill that gap.” In 2016, SAVE handled 165 sexual assault team accounts; 1,157 counseling sessions by those sexually assaulted and significant others affected by the assault; and 3,122 were received by the hotline, she says. While the majority of SAVE’s clients are from Essex County, the organization does provide counseling services to anybody, says Ferro-Saxon, a trained therapist with SAVE since 2008. For in-crises intervention

services, SAVE deals with victims aged 13 and above, both male and female. Most do fall between the ages of 18-24, she adds. Even though SAVE does receive funding from the state and county, as well as some private resources and grants, Ferro-Saxon says monies are limited. “Every year we are at the mercy of state and federal budgets,” she says. “We rely on community support. We need more community funding and support.” The organization has held some smaller campaigns and relies on some

local businesses to collect items for the Rape Care packages and kits. “Unrestricted funding is our biggest need,” she says. Grants are earmarked for specific needs like a bilingual counselor. What SAVE needs is “more funding to pay for administrative roles,” and capacity building of the program. “We are working with such a small pot; many are wearing many hats; we have multiple layers,” with staff needing to be available on weekends, holidays and the middle of the night. SAVE does rely on vol-

Rolling Thunder... continued from page 8 need. “At times our aging veterans struggle to pay bills,” Malanga explained. “We help with money to pay for heating and have also helped many Veterans with rent or mortgage payments. Last year, Chapter Three raised approx. $24,000 through various events, rides, personal donations and fundraising.” Through charitable donations, as well as organiz-

ing community events for service men and women, Rolling Thunder Chapters are known to host events at hospitals and nursing homes like picnics and pizza parties for Veterans. An annual program known as Christmas Families is held where New Jersey Rolling Thunder Chapter members provide gift cards from Shoprite, Walmart and Toy- R-Us to help Veterans during the holidays. Although primarily

unteer advocates, who do receive a stipend, as well. Advocates must be 21 and older, complete 40-hours of training, and are able to handle this line of work. “It’s difficult volunteering,” she says. Volunteers “need to be able to tolerate the emotional part and medical part; have to be willing to go into hospitals in the middle of the night. There’s a lot of emotional burnout in this job. They see or smell something beyond what they can comprehend. We understand this is not easy work.” continued on page 16

known for their roaring motorcades and biker persona, Rolling Thunder encourages anyone with a passion to pay respects to service men and women to volunteer their time or donating to the cause. Interested in donating or volunteering? Contact a local Rolling Thunder Chapter to learn more, or write to the National Headquarters located in Lebanon at P.O. Box 216 Neshanic Station, N.J., 08853.

By Maryanne ChristianoMistretta obert Charles Stutts, 18, of Cedar Grove, won second place in the Art on the Avenue Student Art Contest, sponsored by the Women’s Club of Caldwell, on June 3. Stutts felt proud to win second place for his drawing, which was of his favorite place – Alstede Farm in Chester. “I tried using my imagination,” he said. “There’s a lot of nice animals. There’s a very big barn, crops, and vegetables.” Stutts has been drawing since he was little and said he’d like to have a career in drawing. He said, “I would like to work with art and do something with Disney. I draw a lot of Disney characters.” He recently earned a scholarship to attend Creator’s Workshop in Wayne. Stutts’ art teacher Chris Catalano, of The Calais School in Whippany, recommended it for him. In 2012, Stutts won a Certificate of Achievement for second place for the N.J. State Elks Special Needs Camp Poster Contest. In 2013, he participated in an art show fundraiser for service dogs. He won a certificate and sold some of his artwork. Stutts attends The Calais School, a private special education school. He will be graduating this year after an extended summer program, where he’ll be working with the school in food service. “That should be exciting,” Stutts said.

In September, he’ll continue with the Structured Learning Experience (SLE) program at Sunnyfield’s Day Care Center in Whippany. He plans to get certified for working in day care. “I’m gonna do that until I’m 21,” he said. He has also volunteered at Genesis Health Care in Whippany, assisting in the dietary department in transporting patients to and from the dining room. Other interests include figure skating, surfing and bowling. In the past, Stutts won numerous gold medals in Special Olympics Skating, as well as first place for individual and team bowling. He was born in Columbia and adopted by his parents Bob and Maria Stutts in 1999 when he was seven months old. Being in special education was difficult. Maria said, “He wasn’t in a regular classroom. He didn’t develop friendships; he didn’t develop as a child. He was

in a room with four or six kids. There wasn’t that much awareness [about autism back then].” Though, once his parents found out about special needs programs and got him involved, Stutts began to excel. His journey in sports began with Special Angels starting out with t-ball, soccer and flag football. Two years later, Stutts got occupied with the Special Olympics at Lyndhurst Recreation and learned bocce and bowling. Around the same time, he started ice skating with the Essex Special Skaters. He advanced from level one to level three in a short time. “He’s going to be surfing again with Best Day Foundation,” said Maria. “He tries hard. He’s determined. He really excels in everything he goes for. Now we’re working with him on life skills.” “We’re proud of him,” his father Bob added. “He’s come a long way.”

The Party Goes On At Lead East

By Elsie Walker t’s rare that someone can say they’ve hosted a party that’s been going on for 35 years. However, Terry Cook of Appleton Productions in Long Valley can say just that. A former automotive journalist and hot rodder, who began manufacturing his own car designs in the late 1990s, Cook’s event started as a car show; but it has transformed into a celebration of the 1950’s. It’s called Lead East and it is known as the world’s biggest ‘50s party. For a few days each year, people can leave the woes of the current days behind them and visit a more carefree time. From classic cars- not only from the ‘50s- to the sounds, sights, and dance of the 50’s, Lead East has it all. Also, this

year, joining in on the time travel fun is Barry Weiss of TV’s “Storage Wars.” Lead East is held at the Parsippany Hilton. This year’s event will opened to spectators Thursday – Sunday, Aug. 31 – Sept. 3. About 1,400 classic car, 1974 and earlier, from around the country are expected at this year’s event. However, on Sunday, “will be one big parking lot full of corvettes,” noted Cook. Usually only cars up to the 1970’s would be allowed that day, but this year corvettes of any year, 19532017, will be welcomed. For car enthusiasts, “Big Daddy” Don Garlits will be on hand. He’ll cackle his Swamp Rat 12. Cook explained that means Garlits will rev up the engine and, since there’s no muffler,

car enthusiasts will get the smell and sound they enjoy. Cook will be quick to point out that Lead East is about more than cars and that is what has made it endure. “[It’s the] atmosphere of the 1950’s; the atmosphere is everywhere,” he said. That atmosphere includes music, movies and dances of the era. Some highlights include a pool party with two rockabilly bands plus music on the outdoor and indoor stages on Friday night of the event. On the weekend, there are four stages with live music. On Saturday, that includes Afternoon A Capella with eight great Doo Wap groups. On Sunday, there will be tribute bands to Dion and Frankie Valli and the 4 Seasons.

“They are really good,” noted Cook. The opportunities to dance abound including a sock hop and dance party. As it has for 34 of its years, Lead East will include a drive-in theater set-up. Among this year’s offerings are “The Thing from Another World,” a 1951 monster flick with James Arness of “Gunsmoke fame” as the monster, “Them,” a 1954 science fiction bug classic, and a more recent movie (1971), the Steven Spielberg classic, “Duel” with Dennis Weaver. Giving is also part of Lead East. There will be a 50-50 for Make-A-Wish and, as they have for years, the local Toys for Tots will be on hand to collect toys to give needy children at Christmas.

Given the event’s theme, some people may wonder what special guest Barry Weiss has to do with the ‘50s, how he came to be part of this year’s party. “I’ve known Barry for years,” said Cook. Weiss bought the most famous car that Cook ever built: the Scrape 1930 Lincoln Zephyr. “People recognize Barry all the time. He’ll be float-

ing around Lead East Friday and Saturday and sitting down inside for autographs on Sunday from noon – 3pm, where people can stand on line to meet him,” said Cook. For Lead East admission cost, daily schedule, and other information, visit its website at leadeast.net or the Lead East Facebook page.
