By Anya Bochman hen the Caldwell W e s t Caldwell Educational Foundation was founded some 12 years ago, it was through its members’ belief that change can be affected via direct action. Mary Campion, current CWCEF chair, met with a few others who would go on to become founding members and decided to form a non-profit organization that would rely chiefly on fundraising to better the education of students in the district. “You can complain about situations that the school district has no power to

Police Officers Prepare For Charity Football Bowl

By Lisa McNamara fficers from Caldwell, Fairfield, North Caldwell and Essex Fells police departments score big for Special Olympics New Jersey by raising funds to participate in the New York Giants Snow Bowl at MetLife Stadium on March 23-25. The Snow Bowl is a charity flag football tournament played at the stadium with more than 160 teams of police officers and firefighters facing off against each other during the three-day event on the same field as the Giants, but most would say the real thrill comes from competing to benefit more than 25,000 Special Olympics athletes in N.J. The highlight of the event for Caldwell Detective Matthew DeAngelo is the opportunity to interact with Eric Kish, a Special Olympic athlete, each year. Kish “is on the field and

runs some plays,” says DeAngelo, “and he’s taken a liking to us. We give him one of our uniforms every year.” This year marks Caldwell PD’s fourth appearance at the event, and over the past three years, they have raised $17,611 for the cause. According to DeAngelo, the Caldwell PD finished ninth out of 156 teams for raising money and was awarded the Touchdown Trophy from the Special Olympics N.J. Committee for being one of the top fundraisers. The team of 15 officers hopes to reach its goal of $10,000 this year, and as of March 9, has collected $9,300. “Being able to give back to such a great organization is why we became involved,” says North Caldwell Police Officer Travis Ruffo, and this will be its fifth year playing in the Snow Bowl. The team of 15 officers, 14 from North Cald-

well and one from Essex Fells, has collected $3,866. “Getting to know the athletes from the Special Olympics has been truly rewarding and raising money for them is why we continue to partake in this event,” adds Ruffo. For the first time, Fairfield

Police Department will join in the action, but they are already “hoping to continue the tradition,” says Christopher Hlubik, Fairfield police officer. Hlubik always wanted to participate in the Snow Bowl and “decided to make it happen.” He sent continued on page 6

Caldwell Educational Foundation... continued from front page which now has approximately 20 members who donate their time – engages in a number of fundraising events. In recent years, CWCEF has helped fund a greenhouse garden at the Grover Cleveland Middle School, a broadcasting booth at James Caldwell High School and a writing program and redesign at all the elementary school’s media centers. The foundation’s biggest event, however, is the CWCEF 5K, which will be entering its fourth year this May. A race sanctioned by the United Track and Field Association, the CWCEF 5K has attracted over 600 runners and walkers in past years. With anyone being able to participate, the event is backed by local sponsors and will include vendors and volunteers selling signs and t-shirts. “It’s a big event in Caldwell,” Campion stated. “All the teachers are organized [to partici-

pate] because they know we are helping them. There is a trophy for the school that has the most students participating.” A few of the changes this year will include lining up runners in configurations that allow more freedom to experienced runners – a response to feedback provided by former participants. The certified 500 Grand Prix event starts at 9 a.m. this year on May 12 at James Caldwell High School. According to Campion, the planning got a “late start” this year, so that at press time most of the sponsors are unknown. With 100 percent of the profits from the race going to support district schools, CWCEF members are hoping to raise around $25,000 to benefit school safety goals, such as safety training and retrofitting doors. Those wishing to register for

the race can do so in advance online or in person on race day. Pre-registration will end on May 5. Fees are $25 for adults, $20 for children and $22 for U.S. Track and Field members through preregistration. Raceday registration is $30 for adults and $25 for children, and takes place at James Caldwell High School. For all the important education and community work

CWCEF engages in, Campion acknowledges that lack of visibility is an ongoing problem. “We are all working people,” the chairperson said. “We meet when we can and publicity can be hard. Some people don’t know we exist.” For more information on registering or becoming a sponsor, visit http://cwcef5k. ducktechtest.com/EventRegistration/eventregistration.html.

Free Women’s Career Event March 24

n recognition of Women’s History Month, the Women’s Club of Caldwell is sponsoring a round table discussion of women’s career issues at the Caldwell Public Library in Caldwell on Saturday, March 24 . During the 2 p.m. event, a panel of local profession-

al women will be on hand to share their experiences and to answer questions. The event is free and open to the public. Those attending are encouraged to bring non-perishable food items for the Caldwell Food Pantry.

Charity Football Bowl... continued from page 2 out an email and 14 officers signed up for the tournament. Each player must create their own Snow Bowl webpage to raise money, and each team is required to donate a minimum of $2,400. Hlubik created the Fairfield team’s main webpage, and team “Fairfield’s Finest” has collected $3,200 so far. “We’re just excited to be playing for the first time,” he says. The department has been supporting Special Olympics with Detective Robert Sanger’s Plane Pull for the past 10 years

“which has raised tens of thousands of dollars, and the Snow Bowl is one more thing we’re doing to help out,” he adds. The Giants Snow Bowl is just one more way police officers are teaming up to score big for charity. Their participation has helped the hosts, New York Giants, Special Olympics N.J. and MetLife Stadium, raise more than $470,000 for the cause. To support them in reaching their goal of $600,000 or to find out more, visit the police departments’ websites.

Local Soccer Coach Raises Funds To Equip Colombian Youth With Soccer Gear And Skills For Better Life

By Cheryl Conway s a soccer player since he was four and coach for the past decade, 26year old Sebastian Castillo-Giraldo’s current goal is to pay it forward and help youth from his native country. Castillo-Giraldo of Wharton has started a Go Fund Me page to purchase training equipment and provide soccer clinics to hundreds of inner city children of Colombia. The children he aims to reach live in the city of Medellin as well as Supia, Caldas, the town he was born. He plans to travel in May for ten days, May 13-May 23, with three of his soccer students and a friend, Marc Reynolds of Succasunna, a photographer/filmmaker who will be documenting the trip. “It’s time I pay it forward to those who are less fortunate and give approximately 300 kids an opportunity to use soccer as a vehicle to improve their lives,” Castillo-Giraldo states on his Go Fund Me site. “The game has allowed me to attend college and has shaped me to be the human I am today.”

During a pre-season tournament with Centenary College in Rochester, NY, during senior year, Sebastian Castillo-Giraldo was captain, pictured front and center with the bright cleats in hand.

Castillo-Giraldo grew up in Colombia, during the time of civil war, which had ended in 2016 when the peace treaty was signed, he explains. While conditions were rough, Castillo-Giraldo says “soccer was

big in my town.” He started playing at the age of four; continued to play when he came to U.S. with his parents in 1998, in the fourth continued on page 14

IMPLANT DENTISTRY For over twenty years, implant dentistry has been a reliable option for patients with missing teeth. With the ability to support a crown, an implant procedure has the capacity to bypass drilling the adjacent teeth. Additionally, with the recent availability of mini implants, implant dentistry has expanded its utilization to anchoring both full and partial dentures for a more secure fit. As they provide an economic alternative, patients have been very receptive of mini implants, as they make eating and speaking with dentures much easier. Dr. Helen Chiu has always been involved in implant dentistry, making it an integrated part of her everyday practice. From replacing a single tooth, inserting crowns or bridges, securing dentures, to creating multiple, full-arch reconstructions, she performs every step of each process, surgical and restorative.

Discover Books And So Much Inside Thomas Edison’s Library

By Steve Sears hen visiting the Thomas Edison National Historic Site in West Orange, one may “find” Thomas Edison himself inside his three-story library, which doubled as his office and research center in Building #5. Theresa Jung, assistant superintendent at the site, explains, “It is rare to find a site that still has, not only the historic buildings but also the original furnishings that were in those rooms. It almost looks like Thomas Edison might walk around the corner and join the tour.” Both Edison and his staff used the library regularly for 44 years. Usually the first room a visitor sees when they enter the main laboratory building, there’s too much to absorb during one visit. On the shelves are books and journals from around the world on scientific and technical topics, and on display are artifacts that will keep those with varied interests busy during a self-guided tour. About 10,000 books populate the library, and as far as Jung knows, there is evidence that they used something like the Dewey Decimal System to keep books in order. And if that first number boggles the

mind, consider this about the entirety of the Thomas Edison National Historic Site: there are 400,000 artifacts in the museum collection and five million documents in the archives; not all are on display; many are preserved in storage areas. A few noteworthy things, among so many, wife Mina Edison sent a cot from their nearby Glenmont home in Llewelyn Park for her husband to nap on since he often worked many hours. It’s nestled between a set of bookshelves. Near the library’s third floor, a huge clock read 3:26, the hour and minute hands ceasing movement when Edison breathed his last at age 84 on Oct. 18, 1931. No explanation for the mysterious clock stoppage has ever been found. Hanging on shelving near the entrance are the pictures of the five United States Presidents in office during a good portion of the years the plant was in operation: Theodore Roosevelt, Woodrow Wilson, Warren Harding, Calvin Coolidge, and Herbert Hoover. It is not known if a president ever visited while in office, but the site has photographs of Franklin D. Roosevelt circa 1920 and Herbert Hoover from 1928 visiting the West Orange laboratory, perhaps

An honorary Academy Award received in 1929 due to his work developing motion pictures, signed by Douglas Fairbanks, Mary Pickford, and other famed screen stars, hangs prominently along with other honorary info. Jung offers a final perspec-

Local Soccer Coach Raises Funds... continued from page 8 grade; playing at Morris Hills High School in Rockaway and college, at both County College of Morris in Randolph and the Centenary University in Hackettstown, before becoming a soccer coach 10 years ago. Castillo-Giraldo has been a soccer coach in Mt. Olive, in its camps and premier soccer program; ran the select soccer camps at Morris Hills now called Morris County Summer Select; and has been the first assistant coach for the men’s soccer team at CCM since 2017. Through soccer, “you learn discipline, hard work, determination and team work,” says Castillo-Giraldo, teaching assistant and graduate research assistant at Monmouth University. “Those kids need it,” he says about the children in Colombia, “to help them move up in the ladder of life. “Colombia is a third world country; soccer is a tool to avoid falling into drug use and alcoholism,” he continues on the Go Fund Me page. “It’s a beacon of hope as well as a stimulator to dream big and achieve success in life. As a world history graduate student at Monmouth University, Castillo-Giraldo is currently writing his master’s thesis on

“How Soccer Explains the World.” It was in the first week of December 2017 when Castillo-Giraldo started his Go Fund Me page to help youth in Colombia. A family friend who works for the government in Colombia has identified and connected Castillo-Giraldo with youth teams most in need. Mt. Olive Soccer Club “donated a plethora of new gear,” says Castillo-Giraldo. About 90 percent of its donations are brand new and include uniforms, soccer socks, shorts, sweats, sweaters and jerseys. Kinnelon High School donated some gear as well. Most needed now is the financial support, he says, as his goal is to purchase 200 brand new Adidas balls that cost $3,000. “I can’t have soccer clinics unless I have balls for the kids,” he says. “Balls are really expensive.” The ones he plans to provide are expected to last three to five years and are “ideal for their practices and their games,” he says. Funds will also cover costs for cones and ladders as well as shipping boxes of equipment; soccer clinics for kids with proper training skills; followed my mini-talks to

He estimates that the boys and girls will be between the ages of 8 and 15. “I’ll be running clinic and drills,” he says, with two to three practices daily. While cycling is popular in Colombia too, Castillo-Giraldo says the “predominant sport in Colombia is soccer. It’s a passion you learn to love and you hold dear to you. The whole country plays and the whole country watches them, the Colombia National Team, national pride. Even with all the unrest, when our country was being torn to pieces,” he explains how soccer provides a sense of pride “that brings the whole country together.” He now wants to share his love for soccer. “When I was a little kid playing in Colombia, I had great coaches that didn’t know me,” he says. “I think it’s only right to share my knowledge of soccer with those kids so they can move forward. Everyone in my family has played soccer, like it’s in my blood, in my DNA. “Race doesn’t matter, class doesn’t continued on page 16

I know the happiness it brings and I feel everyone deserves that.” With plans to video their trip, Reynolds says “it’s about me telling a story. This to me is

Atlantic Ambulance Presents Child Safety Seat Inspection Events

By Kerry Breen n February 22, Atlantic Ambulance paired with Safe Kids Worldwide for a free, publicly-available car seat inspection. The program, known as Buckle Up, focuses on safety in and around cars. According to Sarah Daplyn, an Atlantic Training Center coordinator, these events are held several times throughout the year in various locations. The event included certified child passenger safety technicians on-site, who were able to help parents properly install their children’s car seats. “We typically hold our inspection events once every other month at the Atlantic Ambulance Air One helicopter base located at 65 Love Lane in Netcong, NJ,” said Daplyn. “Safe Kids holds these types of events all the time in various locations throughout the state.” According to a flyer advertising the event, three out of four car seats are not used correctly. According to the Safe Kids Worldwide website, one million children around the world die of unintentional injuries each year, and millions more are injured; car safety is the greatest cause of preventable deaths and injuries to children

both nationally and globally. “Our sponsored programs and initiatives combine education, awareness, environmental changes, and safety device distribution to get communities more involved in child safety and keep families and children safer,” as state on the site. “We work together with communities in the United States and partners around the world to implement programs that will address the leading causes of injury and injury-related death.” According to the website, similar child car seat events are held throughout the country, not just within the state of New Jersey. Most of the events are open to the public, and can be found in locations such as General Motors dealerships, hospitals, community centers and shopping centers. The Safe Kids company also has more than 125 Mobile Car Seat Checkup Vans operating across the United States. These vans are designed to turn “any parking lot into a full-service child restraint safety event site,” and almost every state has at least one van operating. Throughout the United States, 500 permanent child passenger safety inspection

stations are operated, with regular times and dates available for interested parents and caregivers. Since the Buckle Up program was established in 1997 during a partnership with General Motors Foundation, the program has grown to include four main components. The components included child passenger safety, which addresses car seats, booster seats and seat belts; heatstroke awareness and prevention with a campaign called Never Leave Your Child Alone in a Car; public education on driveway and parking lot injuries known as “frontovers” and “backovers,” which includes another program called Spot the Tot; and “Getting Ready to Drive,” which covers passenger education for preteens and teens before they drive and includes a program called Countdown2Drive, which teaches preteen and young teens about safe driving before they get behind the wheel. The program also works as public policy advocates helping states strengthen their laws regarding child safety in vehicles and drunk driving.
