Morris Knolls High School Soccer Goalie Sets New Saves Record
By Evan Wechman
Morris Knolls High School senior
Angelo D’Asti thought as a child he would continue the family tradition of playing football. However, things quickly took a turn when he was introduced to soccer.
“My whole family grew up playing football, and that’s what I was going to do,” D’Asti said. “I was going to play football and keep doing what the family did. I lived in a different town at the time and my brother’s soccer coach would let me play with the older teams, and he would just put me in goal with these older kids who were about four years older, and I would just throw my body at the ball, and from right there, he said ‘that kid’s got to be a goalie.’ The instinct of just throwing your body was something I was born with.”
For D’Asti, his coaches and his family took an active role in developing his talent. He not only began playing on school teams but was active in different soccer clubs to help develop his innate ability as a goalie.
At only 5’9, D’Asti knew he would have to rely on his talent and energy to become a top performer at his position.
In an early September soccer match between Morris Knolls and Pope John Regional High School
in Sparta, D’Asti captured an amazing 11 saves to not only propel his team to victory but become the school’s all-time leader in saves as a goalkeeper in Boys’ Soccer.
For D’Asti, this was a dream come true. “It’s probably one of the best experiences I’ve ever had. It felt amazing,” he said about the achievement.
For the senior standout, this is not the end of the road in terms of his soccer success. He is practicing hard almost every day and is focused on helping his team win every possible game going forward. He believes he has some unique traits
that will enable him and his team to compete for the state championship.
“I’m usually confident in my ability. I’m confident in myself and my team. And I feel like it’s that determination, that drive, the motivation to just be the best for my team. That’s just kind of what helps me. The skills play a big part. But I would definitely say it’s the energy. It’s the feeding off the momentum and the motivation from everybody else that’s allowing me to do all this stuff,” D’Asti said.
The senior goalie is not only interested in helping his team move forward but loves giving back to
the local soccer community that helped him develop as a player. One of his first coaches who trained him to become a goalie, Rick Dickerson, continues to go to his games today and helps inspire him with his continued sound advice on the game.
Last year, the coach invited D’Asti to help work with some of his young players who are just learning to become goalkeepers.
“It was such a great experience,” D’Asti said. “Some of these kids I know and being able to look at the future of what’s going to be next was very promising. It continued on page 5

My Most Common Dental Implant Questions
I’ve been performing & teaching dental implant procedures for 30 years. Throughout these 3 decades I’ve fielded lots of questions, so I thought I’d present some Q&A’s here. After reading this article, look at our website for more information, or give us a call for a personalized consultation.
Q: Dental implants are expensive. How do I afford the work I need?

significantly, and you would need a consultation and/or proper exam to determine your particular financial investment. An implant, abutment, & crown for a back tooth without an extraction, grafting, or temporary is approximately $4,500. A full jaw of implants in an arrangement called “All-On-Four” can be as much as $25,000. Some patients will manage their financial investment outright on their own, while others may need assistance from financing programs such as Care Credit or Proceed Lending. Over the last number of years we have been seeing dental insurance kick in funds, but don’t expect it to cover the majority. Treatments may also span a number of months, so a monthly financial arrangement may also be possible. Take a look at our website under the financing options;

Dr. Goldberg
A: We find most people are candidates for dental implants. Age is NOT a factor; we have performed numerous implant procedures on people in their 90s. Uncontrolled medical conditions such as diabetes and osteoporosis can be absolute contraindications, while other health situations such as smoking and autoimmune diseases can be relative contraindications. Medications such as SSRIs (anti-depressants & mood stabilizers), PPIs such as certain gastric medications, and bone metabolism medications (bisphosphonates and others) also need to be respected and risks discussed with your dentist. Consideration to your oral health needs to be
Q: Can I trust my current dentist for my implant care? Who do I seek for my implant needs?
A: This is a very difficult question to answer. If you have a dentist that you are comfortable with, trust that dentist and their opinion. If he/she places implants and also restores them (puts the teeth on top), then they likely are able to service your needs. Even if they don’t do the surgical portion or are paired with an oral surgeon, periodontist, or implant expert such as myself, then you are likely in good hands. However, when it gets to dealing with complicated scenarios such as grafting, full arch implants such as All-
On-Four or bite issues, then you may need to attention of other implant experts. The best advice I can give is that if you have any questions or hesitations, go for a second opinion. We rarely see new patients anymore that have not gone for one or two other consultations; its just the way consumers evaluate the marketplace anymore.

A: Give us a call for a consultation. I have been performing implant procedures for 30 years. I teach full arch implant dentistry and perform these procedures, both surgical and restorative phases.

was great to be there with them and tell them that there’s still plenty of time to get better. And that’s just kind of what I taught them.”
This journey to become the all-time Morris Knolls leading goalkeeper in saves has been quite an adventure for the senior. However, he knows there is more to come. Though he hasn’t selected a specific college he wants to play for next season, several Division I and II schools have
had coaches come to the area to witness his great ability. He is looking to find the college that would be the best fit for him, regardless of location or division.
“Soccer will definitely be a part of the future,” D’Asti said. I’m planning on playing college right now. I have some schools looking at me, but if playing doesn’t turn out, I would love to pursue a career in sports broadcasting, or marketing, but sports is my whole life right now. That’ll definitely be something to look for in the future.”

EMorris Knolls High School Interact Club Provides Wonderful Service at Nourish.NJ
ight student members of the Morris Knolls High School (MKHS) Interact Club recently brought big hearts and their rolled-up sleeves to Dover’s nourish.NJ facility and prepared 420 meals for families in need.
“Last year, we started to make a connection with nourish. NJ,” MKHS teacher and Interact Club Advisor, Michelle Lis, said. “They are geographically less than five minutes from our high school, so that I just felt, as an advisor, it was a really good opportunity for the students to try to get involved in something that was super close. We started to volunteer once a month, and what we have been trying to do is go and make these meals to help them out.”
Lis accompanied Interact Club members Val Elao, Megan Forand, Wendy Graziani, Erin Laudati, Gianna Nodo, Alina Parekh, Belen Salgado, and Abigail Toms on the September 22 trip. A nourish.NJ chef created the specific meal that was scheduled for that day, and the Interact Club members’ service was next up.
Parekh said, “We were each given groups. I was personally in the food distributing group, where there were vegetables and chicken, and we put them into meals. Other groups were either making the food or helping to clean up.”
Salgado said, “I was in the other group. We were sorting out the food, because they received donations from certain places.”
Completed meals are either picked up or delivered. Nancy Rudgers, Corporate Engagement Manager for
nourish.NJ, which also has a location in Morristown, said, “The students from the Interact Club of Morris Knolls High School have truly epitomized the spirit of service and community engagement. Their dedication and hard work in preparing 420 fresh, healthy meals for nourish.NJ not only showcased their commitment to making a positive impact but also brought nourishment and hope to those struggling with food insecurity. We are grateful for their effort and the invaluable service they provided in our kitchen.”
Parekh spoke about the benefit of being an Interact Club member, especially when helping out at nourish. NJ. She said, “It makes me realize how thankful I am to be given such a great life and be provided with so many opportunities. And I like that I can be giving back to the community, and knowing that people will have safe, clean, and healthy food.”
Among their other activities in October, Interact Club took part in Denville’s Atlantic Health-sponsored Pink Witches Night Out (New Jersey’s top Breast Cancer Awareness event) and also helped with the MKHS FCCLA (Family, Career and Community Leaders of America) Club Halloween Trunk or Treat festivities. In November, the group will be conducting a coat drive, and in December, members will be on hand helping out at both Santa Land and the Ayres/Knuth Farm Foundation Christmas Tree Sale, both also in Denville.
There are 150 students total in the Morris Knolls Interact Club.
Lis said, “It is ‘Service Over Self,’ looking for opportunities to go above and beyond to help our local community.”
Salgado said, “My favorite part of being a member of Interact Club and an officer is just getting to put together events for people, and then seeing those events through, helping people that have these volunteer opportunities, and getting to connect with the local community. I am an out of district student, so I was not really connected with the community, but volunteering through Interact was my outlet in order to branch out and meet more people. And it was just kind of my way of giving back.”

Pink Witches Night Out Announces 2025 Beneficiary and Highlights a Year of Community Impact in Denville
The Kathy Olenowski Foundation is proud to announce Francesca Esposito as the 2025 beneficiary for Pink Witches Night Out (PWNO, an annual event dedicated to raising funds for local women battling breast cancer. Now in its 13th year, PWNO, and their naming sponsor, Atlantic Health, continues to unite the Denville community through compassion, celebration, and purpose, with every dollar raised directly supporting women in treatment.
“Each year, our mission is to bring hope and help to women in our own backyard who are fighting breast cancer,”said Meg Olenowski, President of the Kathy Olenowski Foundation. “This year, that mission is personal. Francesca has been part of our PWNO family for years, and we’re honored to stand beside her as she faces this fight with strength and grace.”
Francesca Esposito, a local resident and long-time supporter of Pink Witches Night Out, was diagnosed with Stage 4 adenocarcinoma, a rare and aggressive form of stomach cancer. Known
for her kindness, positivity, and deep love for the community, Francesca has inspired many with her resilience. Proceeds from this year’s event will go directly toward assisting her with treatment costs and supporting her family during this difficult time.
2025 has been a milestone year for Pink Witches Night Out and the Kathy Olenowski Foundation, with a series of successful fundraisers and awareness initiatives — including the PWNO 5K Run/ Walk, which held over 600 attendees. Every fundraiser has served as a reminder of the community’s unwavering dedication to lifting up local women in need.
This year’s main event, Pink Witches Night Out, took place on Friday, October 17, 2025, along Broadway in Downtown Denville. The evening featured live music, shopping, specialty cocktails, raffles, a Tricky Tray fundraiser, and a VIP experience, with all proceeds benefiting Francesca and other women in treatment. The event was free to attend and open to the public.
Since its founding in 2012, Pink Witches Night Out has raised over $150,000 to

customers and friends
support women undergoing breast cancer treatment. Each October, thousands of residents, local businesses, and volunteers fill Downtown Denville — dressed in pink and witch hats — to honor survivors, remember those we’ve lost, and celebrate strength in sisterhood.
“PWNO has grown into something bigger than any of us imagined,” Olenowski shared.
“It’s a night of laughter, tears, and unity — a reminder that even through darkness, light always shines when a community comes together.”

Andrew joined Scouting as a Tiger Cub in first grade. In 2019, he moved up to Troop 69 in Boonton Township as a fifth grader. He found the opportunity for an Eagle project at Cook’s Pond Senior Housing through his troop’s committee chair, who told him about the need for new bookshelves.
He bought most of the materials from The Home Depot and Lowe’s, with the wood stain coming from Ricciardi Brothers on Rt. 23. The project was about $1200 in total, and almost all the cost was covered by a GoFundMe and a $100 discount from Home Depot. He had ten youth, including seven scouts help in total, with a combined 130 man-hours, and built 8 book shelves.
Andrew is a senior at the Morris County School of Technology in the Academy for Biotechnology. He plans to study molecular/cell biology in college, and his ultimate goal is to work in cancer research.
Goodall’s Eagle Scout Project
Seth Caswell’s Eagle Scout Project
Seth Caswell has been involved in Scouting in Booton Township ever since he started as a Lion Cub in Pack 69. Thirteen years later, he is now applying for the rank of Eagle Scout with Troop 69.
Caswell learned about the Cook’s Pond Senior Housing gardening club’s need for raised beds through his advisor, Dicina Arpino. She provided him with Mrs. Elizabeth Walker’s information, and from there, he began planning his Eagle Scout project. Together with Mrs. Walker, he coordinated the construction of three raised garden beds on wheels. These mobile garden beds allow the seniors to stand while gardening and move the beds as they wish.
Caswell was fortunate to receive support from local officer and carpenter, Kevin Marhefka, who generously donated materials through his company, KM Built, LLC, along with a donation from Cook’s Pond Senior Housing. With the help of officer Marhefka and a team of volunteer Scouts and adults (Andrew Goodell, Mikey LePore, Kevin Johnson, Tanay Mishra and Andrew Wilmot) they completed the build in a single day and delivered the garden beds the following week.
Caswell graduated from Mountain Lakes High School and the Morris County School of Technology’s Share Time Plumbing Program in June 2025. He plans to continue pursing his plumbing career after high school and work towards earning his Master Plumber and HVAC licenses, and own his own business.

Women Marines - Breaking Combat-Related Barriers.
Opha May Johnson became the first woman to join the Marine Corps on August 13, 1918.
This came after the Corps planned to enlist 300 female Marines, and Johnson was the first in line. Johnson primarily did clerical work, and managing records for all the female Marines. She was discharged the following year, although there is a difference of opinion whether she requested her own discharge first.
She later worked as a civilian in the War Department until the 1940s and became active in the American Legion during World War II.
United States Marine Corps Women’s Reserve (USMCWR) was the World War II women’s branch of the
Once a Marine - Always a Marine
United States Marine Corps Reserve. It was authorized by the U.S. Congress and signed into law by President Franklin D. Roosevelt on 30 July 1942. Its purpose was to release officers and men for combat, and to replace them with women in U.S. shore stations for the duration of the war plus six months.
Over 20,000 women Marines served in World War II, in over 225 different specialties, filling 85 percent of the enlisted jobs at Headquarters Marine Corps and containing one-half to two-thirds of the permanent personnel at several major Marine Corps posts.
Sixty female recruits started their boot camp training at the San Diego depot in February 2021. By this time, both the San Diego and Parris Island depots had female drill instructors training female recruits. Fifty of the sixty recruits would successfully graduate from
boot camp in April 2021, and became Marines.
The services had until May 2013 to draw up a plan for opening all units to women and until the end of 2015 to actually implement it.
In 2017, there were several women breaking combat-related barriers in the Marine Corps. On the enlisted side, PFC Maria Daume, who was born in a Siberian prison and later adopted by Americans, became the first female Marine to join the infantry through the traditional entry-level training process.
On the officer side, First Lt. Marina A. Hierl became the first woman to graduate from the Infantry Officer Course of the Marine Corps, and Second Lt. Mariah Klenke became the first female officer to graduate from the Marines’ Assault Amphibian Officer course.
Marine Commandant Gen. Robert Neller said, “Accessions of female and minority officers into the service reached thirty-three percent in the fiscal year of 2016, an increase of about ten percentage points from previous years.[ Additionally, a 2016 study of enlisted recruits showed that in the Marine Corps, while nearly seventy percent of enlisted recruit females were white, this was followed by Hispanic women, who accounted for twenty percent.
The Marine Corps opened ground combat jobs to women in 2016, but Marines in those billets have remained predominantly male, with only a few hundred women in combat arms as of the end of 2019, according to data from the Center for a New American Security.
Vietnam War (19651975)In 1967, Public Law
90-130 was signed into law; it removed legal ceilings on women’s promotions that had kept them out of the general and flag ranks and dropped the two percent ceiling on officer and enlisted strengths for women in the armed forces.
Also in 1967, Master Sergeant Barbara Dulinski became the first female Marine to serve in a combat zone in Vietnam.
At the peak of the Vietnam War, there were approximately 2,700 women Marines on active duty, serving both stateside and overseas.
One thousand women Marines were deployed for Operation Desert Shield / Desert Storm (1990-1991).
Female Marines served in the Iraq War from 2003 until 2011.
Female marines also served in the Afghanistan War that began in 2001 and ended in 2021, and
the American-led combat intervention in Iraq that began that began in 2014 and ended in 2021.
In early 2020, in his first year as commandant, Gen. David Berger stated that one of his goals was to have more women attending the challenging Infantry Officer Course.

Opha May Johnson became the first woman to join the Marine Corps on August 13, 1918. She was discharged the following year, although there is a difference of opinion whether she requested her own discharge first.
Once a Marine...
Nearly 300 female Marines have moved into combat-arms jobs that were, up until less than five years ago, previously open only to men. Now female officers have led Marine infantry platoons.
During the Korean War (1950-1953) the number of women Marines serving peaked at 2,787. Most of them served as part of the clerical and administrative staff, in an effort to free male Marines of stateside duties so those men could join overseas combat.
On May 11, 1978, Margaret A. Brewer became the first female general officer in the Marine Corps.
On April 28, 1993, combat exclusion was lifted from aviation positions by Secretary of Defense Les Aspin, permitting women to serve in almost any aviation capacity
In 2013, Defense Secretary Leon Panetta removed the military’s ban on women serving in combat, overturning the 1994 rule. Panetta’s decision gave the military services until January 2016 to seek special exceptions if they believed any positions must remain closed to women. The services had until May 2013, to draw up a plan for opening all units to women and until the end of 2015 to actually implement it.
Gen. Lorna Mahlock to the grade of major general, the Pentagon announced. (2019) Mahlock, was commissioned 1991, is the deputy director of cybersecurity for combat support at the National Security Agency at Fort Meade, Maryland.
Lt. Gen. Michael Borgschulte, became the first Marine Corps officer to be superintendent of the U.S. Naval Academy in its 180-year history on August 9, 2025.
John Phelan, the secretary of the Navy, called Borgshulte “a decorated naval aviator and a veteran of three combat tours in Iraq and Afghanistan who’s led sailors and Marines at all levels.”
Borgschulte replaced Vice Adm. Yvette Davids, who in January 2024 became the first woman to be superintendent.
Now, the Marine Corps is calling on female lieutenants and captains to consider making a lateral move into the infantry officer military occupational specialty. The decision would require women to attempt the arduous Infantry Officer Course, which prepares Marines to lead grunts in combat.
1s tLt. Vernice Armour became the first female African American combat pilot in the Marine Corps as well as any other U.S. armed service (2002).
Today, women account for over fourpercent of all Marine officers and women make up more than five percent of the activeduty enlisted force in the Marine Corps. These numbers continue to grow as do opportunities to serve. Ninety-three percent of all occupational fields and 62 percent of all positions are now open to women. Like their distinguished predecessors, women in the Marine Corps today continue to serve proudly and capably in whatever capacity their country and Corps requires.
The Marine Corps has a special Lexicon known to few outside the Corps. Here is a small example 0f the hundreds of sayings and expressions we use when it is talk among ourselves.
Leatherneck is a military slang term for a member of the United States Marine Corps. It is generally believed to originate in the wearing of a «leather stock» that went around the neck. Its original purpose was to protect the neck from slashing blades in battle, but it also served to keep the head and the neck to together.
you know the term as a loving moniker. What you might not realize, however, is where that nickname originated. According to the National Museum of the Marine Corps. “The high collar on the Dress Blue uniform and the Marines’ head popping out of the top resembled a Mason Jar.”
Grunt or ground pounder is slang for an infantry soldier
Brig is another word for jail.
Maggie’s drawers denote a red flag waved to indicate a complete miss on a target range.
Mess (hall) a place to eat with real dishes and tableware.
Aye aye a verbal response instead of YES Devil Dog is a classic nickname for U.S. Marines. The term originated during World War I at the Battle of Belleau Wood, where German soldiers referred to Marines as “Teufel Hunden” (Devil Dogs) due to their fierce fighting spirit.
Milestones for women officers include: Col. Margaret A. Brewer was appointed to a general officer’s billet with the rank of brigadier general becoming the first woman general officer in the history of the Corps (1978);
The Military Crisis Line is a free, confidential resource for all service members, including members of the National Guard and Reserve, and Veterans, even if they’re not enrolled in VA benefits or health care. Dial 888 then press 1. continued from page 11
In 2015, Joseph Dunford, the commandant of the Marine Corps, recommended that women be excluded from competing for certain front-line combat jobs. That year a U.S. official confirmed that the Marine Corps had requested to keep some combat jobs open only to men. However, in December 2015, Defense Secretary Ash Carter stated that starting in 2016 all combat jobs would open to women. In March 2016, Carter approved final plans from military service branches and the U.S. Special Operations Command to open all combat jobs to women and authorized the military to begin integrating female combat soldiers “right away.”
One Marine made Corps history by becoming the first Black woman to serve as a two-star general in the service.
President Joe Biden appointed Brig.
Col. Gail M. Reals became the first woman selected by a board of general officers to be advanced to brigadier general one star (1985);
2nd Lt Sarah Deal became the first woman Marine selected for Naval aviation training (1993);
Brigadier General Carol J. Mutter became the first woman major general in the Marine Corps and the senior woman on active duty in the armed services (1994); Lt. General Mutter became the first woman Marine and the second woman in the history of the armed services to wear three stars (1996); assumed command of the 3d Force Service Support Group, Okinawa, becoming the first woman to command a Fleet Marine Force unit at the flag level (1992);
Jarhead If you’re a civilian, the word “jarhead” may conjure up the gory image of a person’s head encapsulated in a cylindrical glass container. But if you’re a U.S. Marine,

From Ridgewood to Radio City: The Sullivan Twins Make Rockettes History
By Megan Roche
Identical twin sisters Caitlin and Courtney Sullivan have always shared big dreams — and now, both have achieved one of the most iconic: dancing as members of the beloved precision-dance troupe the Radio City Rockettes. Their story is a fascinating blend of small-town roots, rigorous training, unbreakable twin bond, setbacks and ultimate triumph.
Courtney and Caitlin began dancing as toddlers and quickly discovered their love for the art form. The two spent both their high school years dancing together before they ultimately ended up attending Rutgers University. As members of the Scarlet Knights Dance Team, the two spent time on the sidelines performing at football and basketball games. After graduating from Rutgers, the two honed their focus onto becoming Rockettes.
The two set out to become Rockettes together and step one was the audition.
“Being a Rockette is a really coveted position to earn. They take the audition very seriously. It was very athletic, long hours but at the same time it’s amazing. It was so cool for us to be inside Radio City with actual Rockettes in the front of the room. It was inspiring and the cherry on top, was that we got to do it together,” Courtney said.
The twins kept earning callbacks after each audition round and then came the dreaded waiting period. Sitting with baited breath, the two prayed that they would get a call that gave them a spot at their dream job.
“Whenever we would talk about getting that call, we always pictured ourselves getting that call together. It really did happen. When Courtney got a call that she received the job as a Rockette, they first asked if I was there. They were
able to deliver the news at the same time that we were indeed going to be dancing together as Rockettes. We just burst into tears and it couldn’t have been more of what I’ve always dreamed of,” Caitlin said.
Step two: rehearsals.
“Going through those first six weeks of rehearsal to begin with, it was like every new thing we did was so unbelievable, special, and cool. The first day of rehearsal, the first day where we put the entire show together, the first day when we’re performing it on the stage at Radio City outside of the rehearsal space, everything was just a magical moment. Doing it with my sister and sharing that dream, you feel it even more,” Courtney said.
As the two prepared for opening night, the pinch me moments were still there.
“All those dreams of being on the stage, looking at your family in the audience, seeing them afterwards, standing underneath the marquee taking photos together, we really had to stop and take it in because you will never forget it,” Caitlin said.
The Rockettes, who have been around since 1925, are known for their high kicks, high energy dance numbers, sparkly costumes, and talent. Many flock to Radio City at this time of year to see the Radio City Christmas Spectacular and Courtney and Caitlin are getting ready for year three on the line.
As opening night of the Christmas Spectacular nears, the two are anxious to get the show underway.
“With each season, you get more and more settled in the job. You just feel stronger and more confident. It’s a huge undertaking during your first season. You are learning a
whole new show, it’s just all so stimulating all at once. You are on the greatest stage in the world, learning a new show, and with each year that comes, you feel that all settle into your bones. I feel like my sister and I get stronger together each year because we are in this together,” Caitlin said. While the two mainly dance in the Christmas Spectacular, being a Rockette also gives them other performance opportunities. In 2024, the twins both performed with the continued on page 14

Early settlers in what became New Jersey faced challenges adapting to new environments and interacting with Native American tribes, which sometimes led to conflict but also created opportunities for cooperation. As these groups encountered one another, some individuals promoted mediation and peaceful solutions, showing that harmony was achievable.
Initial claim to the land was made by the English; nevertheless, it was the Dutch first who established a presence there.
Despite the difficulties, these early interactions set a precedent for negotiation and cultural exchange. Settlers learned valuable survival skills from Native Americans, such as local agriculture techniques and seasonal hunting practices, which helped them adapt more effectively to the New Jersey environment. In turn, trade and dialogue sometimes led to moments of mutual respect and understanding, laying the
Peacemaker and the Guardian Angel
groundwork for more complex relationships in the years to come.
In the early seventeenth century, the West India Company, of Holland, dispatched an expedition with the resources to form a small colony.
Throughout this period, the region witnessed a dynamic interplay between various European powers and the Indigenous peoples. The Dutch, though outnumbered by subsequent English settlers, introduced new trade opportunities and maritime industries, further shaping the local economy and cultural landscape. Their efforts to establish settlements and engage in commerce highlighted the complexity of colonial ambitions and the resilience of Native communities faced with ongoing change.
Upon arrival in Delaware Bay, Commander Cornelius Jacobsen Mey took the group up the Delaware River to Timber Creek, located approximately ten miles from present-day Philadelphia, where they constructed Fort Nassau. These developments

Rockettes in the annual Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade.
“That parade was our main exposure to the Rockettes growing up. The Thanksgiving Day parade was our time as kids to get up close and personal with the Rockettes from our own living room. Now, to be away from our family during the holidays, but having a piece of your Rockette family right next to you dancing on Thanksgiving, was so special for us. It felt like we were in the moment and creating a new holiday tradition for ourselves,” Courtney said.
The twins also shared some advice to those dancers who come see the show that would love to end up as a Rockette one day.
“We are very big on the phrase ‘the work is never done’. Even now that we have this dream job, we are continuing to train. We really are so big on staying in classes, stay in all types of dance classes, be a wellrounded dancer because that makes you a stronger performer. Just keep believing and dreaming, you have to tell yourself that you can do this. We are here now because we
unfolded against a backdrop of shifting alliances and constant adaptation, with both settlers and Native Americans navigating an uncertain future. The blending of cultures was gradual, marked by both tension and collaboration, and would ultimately influence the region’s identity for generations.
As settlements grew, new customs and traditions emerged, shaped by the unique challenges and opportunities of life in early New Jersey.
This settlement, however, did not receive approval from the local Indigenous people, and the colony was abandoned.
The initial white settlement of New Jersey did not prevent the Dutch from continuing their activities in the region. Roughly twelve years later, Dutch commander De Vries traveled up the Delaware River—referred to by the Dutch as the South River with the primary goal of whale fishing established a small colony on the shore; however, opposition from local Indigenous people led
to the destruction of the settlement soon afterwards.
Nevertheless, De Vries continued his participation in the whaling industry. Eventually, when supplies were depleted, he left his ship and proceeded upriver in a smaller vessel known as the “Squirrel.” He went up as far as the deserted Fort Nassau, and there anchored to trade with the natives.
It is quite clear that the natives of New Jersey were greatly troubled about the visits of white people to their shore ; for they perceived that these newcomers were inclined to settle and occupy such places as they pleased, without asking permission, or proposing to buy or to pay rent. All this was very distasteful to the
indigenous who had never shown any temperament to open their country to foreign immigration.
When De Vries anchored,
remained positive and knew we could do this,” Caitlin said.
Once the Christmas Spectacular season wraps for the year, the twins will remain in dance classes, visit various conventions to teach, but through it all, they will do it together.
“Every single step for us has always been side by side. I have no other vision but doing everything with Caitlin. New York City is full of dreams. Arts and entertainment are so big, with so many opportunities in this city. If we continue on the track that we’re at, we could reach the stars as long as we’re doing it together,” Courtney said.

The Maneto is a dog breed native to Andalusia in Spain. It is used to hunt rabbits, partridges, quail, and for retrieving ducks from the water. The word “maneto” in Spanish indicates an impediment or defect in any of the hands or legs.

It is all about that one child. That child may be in an orphanage or other bleak situation somewhere in the world, has little, and has never felt what it is to be loved. They don’t know that Christmas is the story of the birth of Jesus or who Jesus even is. But with the arrival of a shoebox of items and the sharing of the gospel stories, that changes. That is how Kimberly Blewitt of Succasunna sees Operation Christmas Child. Blewitt is a church relations member at Ledgewood Baptist Church, a part of the northwestern New Jersey area for Operation Christmas Child. Through Operation Christmas Child, a project of Samaritan’s Purse International, love is spread to children around the world. A child’s life can be changed through items put in a shoebox, the love given in packing it, and learning the story of Jesus. The collection week for boxes is Nov. 17–24th. There are various drop-off locations. Blewitt has been involved in Operation Christmas Child for 26 years and recently shared about the project.
It all starts with a regular size shoebox. Boxes are given to boys and girls ages 2 - 14. A box is made up of items by the gender and age. Blewitt noted that the box should include one item that, if you were a kid, you’d say “wow” when you saw it. That could be a stuffed animal, a toy car, a doll, etc. Other items could be clothing, school supplies, or
Operation Christmas Child
hygiene items. It may be thought that hygiene items like a toothbrush or washcloth aren’t much of a gift to give, but for a child who has to share a toothbrush or washcloth with 10 other people, to have their own is a wonderful thing.
There are certain things that can’t be put into a box such as items with expiration dates, perishable items, breakables, soap, and others listed on the Operation Christmas Child webpages of Samaritan’s Purse’s site.
Blewitt noted that people might consider putting a letter or photo in the box, too. She shared another thing to do is pray for the child getting the box. Also, to help the boxes reach their destination, Samaritan’s Purse asks for a $10 donation towards postage for each box.
Blewett shared that last year, the Ledgewood drop-off site got 4,025 boxes. Throughout Northwest New Jersey (Morris and Sussex counties), 13,722 boxes were collected. More are always needed.
The boxes go to over 140 countries. Some might wonder what to get since the person sending the box doesn’t know where it is going. Blewitt noted that “God knows what the child needs.” She shared about a child in Africa getting heavy mittens. People would not think the child would have use for those in his climate. However, the child’s mother supported the family by making pottery and the child’s job was to take the pieces from
fire pit. The mittens provided the protection the child’s hands needed.
The boxes have a long journey. They start at drop-off centers; locally, there are ones in Mt. Arlington, Ledgewood, Livingston, Oak Ridge, Parsippany, Basking Ridge, Chatham, Wayne and Washington. From there, they are put into cartons and taken to collection centers. The collection centers load the cartons onto tractor trailers. From there, the boxes go to processing centers. There the boxes are checked to make sure the boxes have no items that would hurt a child or are on the list of things not to be included. After this, they are put in shipping containers and sent on to the different countries. Once there, local area teams prepare local churches to get the boxes to the children. Local travel, in some cases, could even be by elephant, donkey, etc. Once at a destination, the children hear the gospel story of Jesus and receive the boxes. A copy of the gospel stories in the child’s native language is given with each box. Children are invited to come back if they want to learn more about Jesus, but that is not required to get a box.
Boxes go on a long journey and don’t get to the children for Christmas the year they are given. Some are given out the next Christmas or some children experience Christmas
in July. The gifts still mean the world to the children. “We hear a lot from these kids who have received these boxes and are now adults telling their story that they felt loved with this box,” said Blewitt. She shared that the children learn they are a gift to God. Blewitt shared that she gets ”goosbumps’ upon hearing stories which reflect the miracle of the boxes. In one instance, although all the boxes are checked, a boy got a doll in his. However, he was so happy. His sister had been unable to come to get a box and now he had something to give her. Another child opened his box to find a couple of pencils among the items. He was thrilled because now he could go to school. In some countries, if you don’t have the supplies, you can’t attend school. A young man, who had received a box as a child, shared that in his box was a scarf, but he lived in a warm climate. However, he kept the scarf. It ended up that when he grew up, he came to the United States: to Buffalo, New York. He still had the scarf, and it came in handy.

Peacemaker...

their best, and, to make the visit more agreeable, they brought some of musical instruments with them and gave the Dutch a taste of native music.
The dress of these visitors was a surprise to De Vries and his seven crewmen on the boat. It was winter, and most of the natives were dressed in furs, but several wore jackets made in the English fashion. The visitors were very friendly and urged De Vries to sail his vessel up a stream, to Big Timber Creek, which, they declared, was a much better place for trading.
Among the Lenni-Lenape, as well as the other tribes of North America, women often had a special role to play in national and social affairs. If ever the services of a peacemaker were needed, the position was always given to a woman. It was considered pejorative to the male ego and his dignity that he should at any time, desire peace. He and his enemy might both be exhausted from fighting; but neither of them would lower themselves to seek peace, and allow any of his countrymen, to know the state of his mind.
In such situations, according to some historians, a woman would be seem in the double character of peacemaker and guardian angel.
While the details were being worked out, his engineers planned a large fortification made up of earthworks ; and on this the men were put to work, as if it had been expected that the enemy would soon arrive and take the place.
The desire was to put their camp on the condition of defense, and the energy of steady labor, were of as much advantage to the spirits of the soldiers as bread and meat would be to their bodies rather than sitting in idle groups about their campfires, they worked on the new intrenchments,
ramparts, and redoubts with cheerful energy.
Everything was done exactly as if the new fort were soon to be called upon to protect the town, and the engineers and officers were as careful in making plans and giving directions as if they had been building a fort at the entrance of New York harbor. One man did not object to tell his wife that he wanted to stop fighting; and she, very gladly in most cases, would confer with the wife of the other brave.
When they had a truce, the two men would sit down together, smoke the calumet, and be friends; and all this without loss of dignity.
This method of making peace was pursued not only by individuals, but by nations. Very often women had this important political duty thrust upon them, a duty for which they were probably very well qualified, for it is seldom that women of a nation desire war.
This national disposition regarding peacemaking was once the occasion of a serious misfortune to the
tribe of Lenni-Lenape. The tribes to the north, who had formed themselves into a powerful body called the Five Nations, had long been jealous of their neighbors, the Lenni-Lenape and created a plan to humiliate them and render them less important in the eyes of the natives. Actuality at war with some other tribes, these Five Nations came to the LenniLenape and pretended to desire peace but stated that this was too important a case to be managed by women. They declared that this was a great work which should be given only into the hands of a quiet, dignified, honorable tribe, such as their neighbors, and urged the Lenape to undertake negotiations to end all hostilities.
This seemed reasonable enough, the Lenape were at last persuaded to become peacemakers, and they were entirely successful; but they suffered for their compassion and good feeling. Ever afterwards they were looked upon by other Native tribes as no better than women and
sneered at as peacemakers and squaws.
But there was another turn in this story, the guardian angel. It was after a visit from the natives to the vessel of De Vries, that the peacemaking instinct took possession of the wife of one of the native chiefs; she quietly and stealthily, managed to get on board the “ Squirrel.” Some said it was the inspiration of her guarding angel. When she informed the commander of the real object of his visitors, who had invited him to sail up Timber Creek. It was the desire of the natives to destroy this company of white men ; and the narrow stream where they wished to make the attempt was much better adapted for their purpose than the broad waters of the river.
Wishing to prevent an encounter in which the Dutch would probably kill some of her countrymen before they themselves were destroyed, she had come to implore the whites not to run into the trap which had been set for them. She told them that the crew of
an English shallop, which not long before had come to visit the place, probably from a ship afraid to venture higher up the river, had all been slaughtered, and that it was the jackets of these men that some of her countrymen were wearing.
Like a sensible man, De Vries paid attention to this story, and did not venture into Timber Creek. Whether or not he rewarded the good woman who came to warn him of his danger, is not known; but his account of the affair places her in the position of one worthy of a monument by the women of the State.
Then the Indigenous people came again to De Vries, he declared to them that his Great Spirit, or “ Maneto,” had revealed their wicked purposes, and that he would not sail up Timber Creek, nor would he allow one of them upon his vessel ; and, having ordered them all on shore, he dropped anchor some distance down the river.
The Maneto is a dog breed native to Andalusia in Spain. It is used to hunt
rabbits, partridges, quail, and for retrieving ducks from the water. The word “maneto” in Spanish indicates an impediment or defect in any of the hands or legs.
This event led the Native American chiefs from nine tribes to board the “Squirrel” to establish a treaty of peace and commerce with the Dutch. All of these were now dressed in furs, which were their ordinary garments; but some of them were recognized as the same men who had formerly worn the jackets of the murdered English sailors. These individuals interacted in a manner consistent with previous behavior, and there is no evidence to indicate they had any intention of acting dishonestly. The visitors sat down on the deck of the boat, and held a regular council, and, with appropriate ceremonies, made presents of beaver skins to the whites, and solemnly concluded a treaty of friendship.
