Whippany Photographer Featured In Hanover’s Art On The Wall

By Steve Sears anfred Saul has had a good three years. He has won 139 Nikon sponsored photography contests, competing against thousands of photographers worldwide. Also, the Whippany resident of 56 years has 25 of his works currently on display at the Hanover Municipal Building’s Cultural Arts Center in the current “Art on the Wall” exhibit. The exhibit, which runs through the end of June, features solely shots from the historic 300-year-old Whippany Burying Ground, including the “Plymouth Rock Of New Jersey,” the oldest known gravestone, and the burial spot of John Richards in northern New Jersey, which dates to 1718. He was approached by Theresa Swala, who was also a longtime resident of Whippany and volunteer of the Hanover Land-

mark Commission and a library worker, to display his work. The 67-year-old Saul has been a photographer since the late 1970s, and he has taken images of landscapes, wedding ceremonies, done food, real estate, and portrait photography, and in the early 1980s was even called on by scientists for his infrared and ultraviolet quality photo taking technique, so the scientists could determine health of planes and content of soil. “If you use infrared film and put on an infrared filter on there as well, the plants come out in different colors,” he said. “So, the scientists who then look at the plant and soil samples will be able to determine the validity of the plant, whether the plants had good like in it, or if a plant starts to show brown, then obviously the plant is dying, and there’s different levels within the ground that have different colors, and with water there’s different photo textures to it. I did the photography and turned it over to the actual scientists. I volunteered to do that because I found it fascinating.” The former finance worker has always had a passion for photography. Early on he worked his full-time job during the week, and on weekends he took portrait and wedding photos, and commercial shoots for magazines. It was during this time he also branched out into scientific photography. Eventually he left the financial field

and got his degree from the New York School of Photography. From there it was on to the freelance life. His photos can be seen in township calendars, and in the popular magazine, “Preservation.” Saul’s heart lies in historical photography, and a lot of what he prefers is taking gravestone shots. He shoots his photos continued on page 2

WPHS Grads Introduce New Hanover Summer Theatre Camp

By Stefanie Sears his upcoming July the theatrical youth residents of Hanover can look forward to participating in a brand new summer theater camp, created and run by 2017 Whippany Park High School graduate Sierra Miliziano. Miliziano is now a student at the University of Michigan studying theatre arts, with a minor in playwriting and concentration in performing arts management. Having interests in performance, writing, and directing, she hopes to do it all. “I just want to be a successful artist and create work (or perform work) that means something,” she says. She is certainly getting experience with Stars & Dreamers Theatre Company. Miliziano founded Stars & Dreamers Theatre Company with her friend Danielle Gurcan in November 2017. The camp will take place at the Hanover Rec Center on July 9 through 14, ending with their production of “Annie Kids” on July 13 at 7 p.m. and July 14 at 2 p.m. Tickets cost $5 each. Miliziano will be directing the production while Gurcan, who is currently studying music education at Ithaca College, will serve as music director. Miliziano has known Gurcan

since sixth grade at Memorial Junior School. Miliziano moved away, but then the girls were reunited in high school where they rekindled their friendship in sophomore year and reinstated their mutual love for theater. “We participated in all the dramas and musicals together, were in many of the same classes, and participated in Madrigals together,” explains Miliziano, “Our working relationship is I direct and she music directs, and we both get a say in prop, set, costume decisions. It’s a partnership that works because we think differently, but are equally committed to the process.” The two girls have always discussed starting their own theatre company, wanting to bring their artistic passions to the community. “Early this year I reached out to Denise Brennan, the superintendent of rec, and pitched the idea of a summer theatre camp to her,” she explains. “She was on board and we set everything up from there! Our program is categorized as a specialty camp under Rec and we will use their facility for the rehearsals and performances. We’re very excited because it’s an idea we’ve had for a long time that we can finally put

into action.” “We have periodically run drama and performance camps as part of our summer offerings but Stars & Dreamers is unique in that it is a camp developed by and run by a young adult who is a Whippany Park High School graduate,” says Superintendent of Recreation & Parks Administration Denise Brennan. “We like to encourage new ideas and Sierra’s attention to details and well thought out plan made it easy to say ‘yes’ to her idea for camp. When Sierra came to me with the idea, I was very excited. Her enthusiasm is infectious and will certainly spill over to the participants. Her ideas for the Stars & Dreamers Theater Company will make “Annie” a

production to remember!” In addition to rehearsals, other activities planned are theatre games and character work. “We want to keep the kids as engaged as possible with the material, and theatre in general,” says Miliziano. “Our goal is for the kids to learn a little more about performing, their confidence and self-esteem to increase, and to experience how fun and challenging theatre can be.” Stars & Dreamers Theatre Company is accepting up to 25 kids, ages 6 to 11. The participation fee is $255 per child for the week to cover the cost of the camp, show shirt, and DVDs of the performance. The registration deadline is June 9.

Motorcycle Ride To Cruise Through Jersey Towns To Fight Bullying

By Cheryl Conway undreds of motorcycles plan to hit the streets on Saturday, June 2, throughout Morris County. Far from its stereotype of being a tough motorcycle gang, the group will represent the complete opposite as their mission will be to Blue Out Bullying. The initiative, The Ride for Mallory’s Army, is a charity ride to raise awareness and funds to fight against bullying. Organized to be held almost one year after the death of 12-year old Mallory Rose Grossman of Rockaway, the ride will generate proceeds to support the Mallory’s Army Foundation. The organization was founded by the Grossman family after the sixth grader committed suicide on June 14, 2017 because of “horrific bullying,” as it states on the foundation website. The ride is being organized by Garden State Harley Davidson in Morris Plains. Registration is planned for 9 a.m. at the dealership and the ride is set to begin 11 a.m. Participants will begin the 50-mile motorcycle drive from the dealership and cruise throughout Morris County in towns such as Rockaway, Butler and

Denville. While the dealership competes in charity rides every year, the idea for The Ride For Mallory’s Army came out of a request. “Mallory’s babysitter is a customer of ours and she came in and asked us to host a ride,” says Randi Kolano, marketing manager for Garden State Harley Davidson. This was back in January. Supporting the cause is an opportunity too important to pass up. “We always go over and above especially with children and helping out the community,” says Kolano. “We want to teach everyone to be kind. It’s going to be something special to witness something so large riding through. I encourage people to come out and support the riders cause you don’t always see hundreds of riders passing through every day.” Cost to participate in the ride is $20 for motorcyclists; $15 for passengers. To attend the barbecue following the ride, $10 donations are being requested. Participants can pre-register before June 1 at eventbrite.com, or the morning of the ride at the dealership. Motorcyclists are expected to cruise 30 mph to 40

AARP Driver Safety Class Offered To Community

ARP Driver Safety Class is set for Thursday, May 24, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., at the Arbor Terrace in Morris Plains. AARP Smart Driver Course, offered by AARP Driver Safety, is the nation’s largest classroom and online driver safety course and is designed especially for drivers age 50 and older. The community is invited

to refresh driving skills and knowledge of the rules of the road. Discover proven driving methods to help stay safe on the road. Cost is $15 for AARP members; $20 for non-members, check or cash. Lunch is included. Register by calling 973-718-3636 or mkane@arborcompany.com.

mph while spectators line the streets for support. As of press time more than 100 riders throughout the local area had registered for the ride. Blue Out Bullying bracelets are also being sold for $3 to support the cause. Go to mallorysarmy.org to purchase. All proceeds will support the Mallory’s Army Foundation. “Gosh, we want to raise as much as we can, but mostly we want to raise awareness for their cause,” says Kolano. “The motorcycle community has one of the most generous and kind people. When you see us watch out for us. They paid to ride to raise money

for charity. Instead of getting upset that we are causing traffic or a slight delay, just know they’re doing it for a very good cause.” With about six to 10 charity rides held every year, averaging about two a month during May through October, the Garden State Harley Davidson in Morris Plains has supported multiple causes such as autism, the police department, fallen police officer and children with cancer. It also holds a Casino Night every year to support the fire department, says Kolano. For more information on the Mallory’s Army Foundation, visit mallorysarmy.org.

Fido, Fifi And Friends Are Ready To Bark And Roll Outdoors!

By Ricki Demarest ith the frustratingly elusive warmer weather here at last, it’s time to safely plan outdoor activities. Like everyone else, dog owners and their best friends have been waiting, patiently or not, for winter to release its grip on the Garden State. There are thousands of dogs living happily in New Jersey. Most are welcome at municipal, county, public or private dog parks as well as restaurants and town streets. However, for dogs and their loving human companions, a little prior planning is a must to ensure a quality excursion - for the dog, the owner and everyone they encounter along the way. Parks provide a great place to take dogs for a walk, a run or even agility training. Canines are usually welcome in open spaces if they follow the rules

and regulations. Most places post their rules online and at the locations themselves. Municipal ordinances and state rules always apply. Some of the most common park rules are as follows. Owners are always held liable for their dogs’ behavior and use parks at their own risk. All dogs in the park must be licensed and vaccinated. There is often a limit of two dogs per person. The handler is supposed to have constant control of their animal(s). Sick dogs are expressly exempt from parks. Dogs in heat are not allowed either. There are usually age restrictions, both for dogs and children. Digging is prohibited. Owners or handler are to fill any holes left by their dog. Waste must be removed and disposed of properly. Spiked, pronged or choke collars are generally not allowed. The most important rule for

dog owners is being aware of how their dog will react to others outside their own territory. “Like people, if you put everyone in a room, not everybody’s gonna get along with everybody,” said Evan Perlman of ESP Pet Specialists pet sitting services in Livingston. “A dog park is NOT the place to begin socializing a dog.” Before taking a new puppy or adopted best friend out to a dog park, Perlman recommended spending one on one time with another dog who will be receptive to such companionship. Jean Owen, owner of NJ Fix My Dog training in the Morristown area, is a dog park veteran, having helped create them in Morris County and in New York City. She was happy to share a few pearls of wisdom gleaned from her experience. First and foremost, she said, make sure the dog likes to be

around other dogs. Never bring food to a dog park – either treats for the dog, or food for oneself. In fact, many parks do not allow food in the dog area. Please, please don’t bring a sick dog to a dog park! Owen recommended owners wait two weeks to make sure a dog isn’t carrying a virus. Remember, not all dogs like children. Most parks have age requirements for children and they vary from place to place. Know before the visit. Separate areas for large and small dogs are always a good idea, according to Owen. She also recommended taking a four-legged friend to a park a few times when they aren’t busy. That way, he or she can acclimate to the surroundings. Leash requirements aside, Owen said a dog should always wear a ‘light line’ such as 20 feet of venetian blind chord so continued on page 9

water source can help keep a dog healthy and happy. Another northern N.J. trainer, Margaret MacEwan, noted that a pet’s experience can depend on the group dynamic in the park. “You’re at the mercy of other dog owners; there’s no referee,” she said. “This isn’t a substitute for training your dog or doing activities with your dog.” Another option for a dog to get out and socialize, she said, is dog day care. There, staff members recognize and monitor each animals behavior while offering a safe space for play and friendship. Many people venture beyond the park with their canine companions, choosing to take their four-legged friends out to dinner, on canoe or kayak

Morris County Provides Hope To Residents With Broad Range Of Outreach Services

T By

By Cheryl Conway here there is a will, there is a way, the familiar saying goes, and with hope, anything is possible. Especially with two vehicles making appearances throughout Morris County bringing services to the people, from treating individuals with drug addiction to providing outreach in a wide range of areas such as homelessness, unemployment, aging, child care and veterans’ services. Hope One vehicle has been in motion for the past year; joining the tandem this fall will be a second vehicle, Navigating Hope. “The impact of the Morris County Sheriff’s Hope One program on the addiction and mental health communities of Morris County has been tremendous!” says Jennifer Carpinteri, director of Human Services for Morris County since Oct. 2014. “It is now time to offer a broader range of services to expand upon those currently offered by Hope One, the county’s Department of Human Services and the Morris County Community Provider Network. While the specific details of the Navigating Hope vehicle are still being finalized, Carpinteri says “the outreach vehicle will provide a comfortable, confidential way to deliver services and connect with individuals who have had difficulty navigating and accessing services through the traditional means of provision. Use of mobile technology will be an important component to this work, as it provides for the greatest access to resources. “All human service related resources will be made available to provide on-site services as scheduled or requested by a municipality, business, school or provider,” she adds. “Navigating Hope, the mo-

bile community assistance access center, will travel to different locations throughout Morris County, bringing services out into communities to help residents identify their short-term needs and provide additional case management supports necessary to navigate the complex systems of care to achieve long-term sustained well-being,” she explains. Areas that will be addressed include: homeless service & affordable housing; employment services; emergency shelter; aging service; veterans services; Medicaid; food stamps; child support; transportation; and linkages to The Family Justice Center/Domestic Violence Needs, educational services, literacy/ESL classes, health screenings, HIV/AIDS services, legal services, faith based supports and numerous other critical resources identified on an individualized basis. Cost of the new vehicle is about $100K. The Morris County Board of Chosen Freeholders has approved funding to support the Navigating Hope Initiative within the 2018 Operating Budget. The Hope One vehicle is funded and maintained by the Morris County Sheriff’s Office, she adds. “While these are two separately funded vehicles, they represent the strong partnership between the county De-

partment of Human Services and the sheriff’s office in reaching our most vulnerable residents by breaking down barriers and bringing hope into each municipality,” she says. Professionals will be on site in each vehicle and visit. “The Navigating Hope vehicle will be staffed by a specialized Human Service team of professionals,” she says. “The positions that will comprise the team, through on-site and via skype capabilities are: Morris Care Navigator; OTA Generic Interviewer; OTA Social Worker; veterans’ staff; aging staff; and child support. In addition, “Development of a volunteer component will be a goal during the first year of operation,” she adds. Navigating Hope is targeted “to serve thousands of residents per year. The expanded array of services offered will ultimately draw additional people and reach the most vulnerable, hard to serve residents.” The county has always offered these services, but some residents either do not know they exist or choose not to utilize them. “These are not new services, rather a new way of delivering them,” says Carpinteri. “We expect to reach people who are hesitant to reach out to the county for help.” The county is hoping to launch Navigating Hope this fall. It will travel in tandem as well as separately from Hope

One, with plans to visit all 39 municipalities, says Carpinteri. “The autonomy of Navigating Hope allows us to utilize it as a mobile outstation model for residents seeking short term and long term benefits, reaching all municipalities in the county when not supporting the work of Hope One,” she explains. “Two vehicles provides more capacity to bring an array of services into the community and reach more people. “This program has the potential to serve thousands of residents per year,” and if it follows in Hope One’s path, progress is likely. “The success of the sheriff’s one-of-a-kind idea that came to life just a year ago is now looked as a statewide model!” she says about Hope One’s first year. “With the growing addiction epidemic nationwide, and especially here in Morris County, partnerships and collaborations are now the future of combatting addiction and saving lives. The opportunity for our Department of Human Services to work in concert with law enforcement is a welcome paradigm shift on both sides. I am humbled to be a small part of the program!” She has high hopes for Navigating Hope as well. “I am thrilled to have the opportunity to better connect and serve Morris County residents,” she says. “Many of whom are our most vulnerable continued on page 14

By Stefanie Sears his year’s 10th annual Great Conversations event, which took place on April 26 at the Madison Hotel in Morristown, honored Great Conversations founder Joen Ferrari, who heard about Great Conversations in Atlanta and decided to bring it to Morris Arts. About 300 people were in attendance. Great Conversations is a fundraiser in which proceeds go to Morris Arts, a not-for-profit organization founded in 1973 dedicated to supporting artists,

arts programs, and arts advocacy in the Morris County community to inspire, connect and engage. During Great Conversations, attendees are given the opportunity to chew the fat with experts in various industries at a preceding reception and then join their selected conversationalists for dinner at their individual tables to continue more in-depth discussions. Seats went for $250 each and patrons were encouraged to register early online at morrisarts.org, as this gathering

quickly sells out, and asked to pick their top five host conversationalists in order to get assigned to a specific host of their choice. According to a press release, “This is an evening to exchange ideas and

savor the pleasures of live encounters. You may be surprised by what you discover.” Through these exchanges attendees were able to learn about their conversationalists’ career achievements and backgrounds, insight into the world and their particular fields, how such impacted their lives and how they got to where they are today, as well as any lessons they can impart. “We look for a wide variety of outstanding people who are at the top of their game and have an interesting story to tell,” says Morris Arts Director of Development Gina Moran. “We get top-notch business leaders in major industries, sports figures, entertainment figures in music and performance and the arts, scientists, authors and reporters. We look for people that

you can’t ordinarily have a dinner conversations with – people that are somewhat unattainable. That’s the draw. And we’re recruiting year round by going to interesting events with outstanding people.” Present at this year’s Great Conversations were about 30 diverse host conversationalists in arts, music, and media; business; entrepreneurship and technology; healthcare and pharmacy; law; military service; real estate; science and medicine; and sports. “Each Great Conversations has its own flavor derived from the unique group of conversationalists and attendees,” says Moran. “This year’s was a particularly dynamic one, with the conversationalists very interested in meeting each other and engaging with their guests. There was

great electricity and excitement at the event and everyone seemed really jazzed.” Morris Arts’ next affairs are “Meet Me in Morristown,” in conjunction with Morristown Partnership, and the 35th annual Giralda Music & Arts Festival. For “Meet Me in Morristown,” stores stay open late and have artists, musicians, and performers draw patrons downtown to shop and enjoy entertainment and dining. This will be held the last Thursdays of May through August. The Giralda Music & Arts Festival, a family friendly lawn concert featuring the New Jersey Symphony Orchestra, an art show, and children’s arts activities, will take place on June 24. People can now look forward to next year’s Great Conversations on Thursday, May 2.

Kids Can Ride The Rails With Dad In Whippany

n Father’s Day, June 17, families are invited to spend the day with dad at the Whippany Railway Museum, where they can climb aboard a mid-1900s excursion train and enjoy an old-fashioned, pleasant Sunday. The trains feature a unique collection of restored vintage cabooses from historic rail

lines that once served New Jersey and the Metropolitan area. The 10-mile, 45-minute round trip excursion from Whippany to Roseland and return is a thrill for the children as they enjoy what, for many, will be their very first train ride. They can also learn about and experience the history of N.J.’s rich railroad and transportation

heritage. Passengers can combine the thrill of riding the train along with touring the museum site, featuring its outstanding collection of historic railroad locomotives, rolling stock, operating model train layouts and vintage farm tractors. The ride also features the excitement of crossing high above the Passaic River over a steel bridge. In addition to the antique cabooses that make up the train, visitors can upgrade their excursion experience by choosing to ride in the elegantly-restored 1927-era Central Railroad of New Jersey (CNJ) ‘Club Car’ “Jersey Coast.’’ The car has the look and feel of a private club with individual leather chairs, mahogany interior accented with stained glass, built-in tables and period ceil-

ing fans. It recalls the 1930s, when the CNJ operated its deluxe coach train, The Blue Comet, between Jersey City and Atlantic City.It is the only car of its type operating in N.J. Trains depart at 1 p.m., 2 p.m., 3 p.m. and 4 p.m., rain or shine, from the museum in Whippany. Fares are $16 for adults, $11 for children under 12. Infants are free. The fare includes museum admission. Tickets may be pre-ordered online using a major credit card. Those interested should visit www.whippanyrailwaymuseum.net and use the link to buy tickets. For more information, call (973) 887-8177 or visit the website at www.WhippanyRailwayMuseum.net.

n honor of the 100th anniversary of the end of World War I, the renowned Hanover Wind Symphony will present a free concert, called “Remembrance,” on May 23, at 7 p.m., at Memorial Junior School, Whippany. “Our ‘Remembrance’ concert seeks to honor the memory of all those who served in World War I, both on the battlefield and

on the home front,’’ Matthew Paterno, music director of the Hanover Wind Symphony. “We also celebrate through music the spirit of liberty and the America that all of those brave people fought to preserve.” The Hanover Wind Symphony carries on the great American tradition of adult music performance. One of only a handful of outstanding community-based adult wind

bands in New Jersey, the Hanover Wind Symphony delights audiences of all ages by giving a contemporary twist to traditional favorites. The large orchestra, made up exclusively of woodwind, brass and percussion instruments, embraces as its mission bringing “music to people and people to music.” For more than 30 years, the Hanover Wind Symphony has played to enthusiastic audiences. Members are volunteers who share a love for music and a passion for enriching the cultural fabric of the community with the thrill of live wind band performances. By day, they are accountants, engineers, teachers and executives. They come together to connect musically with others, share the enjoyment of music with live audiences, and help mentor the next generation of wind musicians.
