Trust the UPS Stores to Pack & Ship with Confidence & More!

he UPS Stores in Livingston & Cedar Grove are owned and operated by the Helmy family for many years. One of several reasons for their success is a staff that goes out of their way to give excellent customer service. This is the season of sending packages to loved ones for Father’s Day, Graduation, Weddings and many more happy occasions. Ground and air shipping services are available. This is a popular time of year for people to move their home or office. All the supplies you need, including many sizes of cartons, tape and other items are available. Let the UPS Certified Packing Experts professionally pack & ship the items. From precious antiques to odd

sized large items, they love the challenge of valuable or unusual things to pack and ship. Soon campers are leaving, and the UPS Store will get trunks, duffel bags and odd shaped equipment to camp right on time. And, when the campers call home that they forgot or need something, count on the UPS Store. High school grads will be going off to college and that is another great time to rely on the UPS Store to get students items right to their living quarters. Need to shred some documents and personal items? Just bring them in and take advantage of using their shredding services. Their document services are a convenient way to print black and white or color copies from small jobs to

Memorial Day Parade... continued from front page Livingston Senior & Adult Enrichment and Special Events Supervisor, speaks to the busyness of planning. “We take notes for whatever happens on that day (of the parade) for the following year, and then we meet in October planning the following year’s parade. The Memorial Day Committee really runs and organizes the parade, and the committee is comprised of the different veterans from the different posts (Veterans of Foreign Wars, American Legion, Jewish War Veterans).” Branquinho’s group hires the bands to march and coordinates local groups to march as well, but the veterans do a lot of the actual fundraising and coordinate with the different posts as to who’s marching, arrange for the cars for veterans who have trouble walking to sit in, and also put together the ceremony, select the Grand Marshal, Miss Buddy Poppy, and the guest speaker for the day.

edible a r ra n g e m e n t s

Public donations are always welcome. Letters requesting donations are dropped into resident mailboxes by boy scouts, and donations online can also be accommodated. Donations can also be mailed to the Memorial Day Parade Committee, 204 Hillside Avenue, Livingston, NJ 07039, Attn: Liliana Branquinho. Please make checks payable to Memorial Day Parade Committee. “One of the things that is discussed a lot among our committee is that many towns don’t have a Memorial Day parade anymore,” Branquinho says. “It’s important for the veterans to keep the message alive and keep reminding people that so many have lost our lives serving our country so we can have the freedoms we enjoy today. Livingston is a town with an incredible sense of volunteerism and they (the community) understand the value of patriotism and the value of our seniors. A lot of the seniors that we have in our

town are veterans. It’s important to keep a reminder and teach the younger generations that of what happened and why we’re doing a Memorial Day parade, and why it’s important to honor those we’ve lost and those that are still alive that have and continue to serve our country. Many seniors are so involved in our committee on many different levels.” There is no rain date for the parade. If weather is inclement, a determination is made the prior evening or the morning of the event if there will be a parade cancellation. However, the patriotic ceremony is still held in the Livingston High School auditorium. “We want people to come and really support the veterans,” concludes Branquinho. “The veterans are just happy to see people attend the parade. Please come out. Bring your family, bring your children. It really makes the veterans happy to see that.”

Livingston High School Senior Named Unsung Hero

By Jason Cohen Livingston High School senior was recently recognized for contributions to her school and community. On March 14, the Essex County School Board awarded Lindsay Haaker with the Unsung Hero award. Haaker explained that her guidance counselor nominated her for the honor, but she did not know this until she was called down to the office in early March. “At first I was surprised because I wasn’t’ even aware of this award,” she said. “I just think reflecting back on all of it makes me proud of everything I’ve done.” Haaker,18, who will be attending George Washington

University in Washington, D.C., in the fall, told the Livingston News she has always enjoyed helping others. “I like to be a pretty busy hard-working person,” she explained. “When I started high school, I wanted to try out a lot of different kinds of activities.” Haaker is active in and out of the classroom. She played field hockey through her junior year and is an active member of National Honor Society, English Honor Society and Spanish Honor Society. She joined the costumer crew for theater her sophomore year after taking a fashion class. Being able to help create clothing for shows is a really cool experience, she said.

“I definitely like being able to work with everyone,” Haak-

Haaker isn’t just active in school. From eighth grade through her junior year she volunteered with Friendship Circle, an organization that helps kids with special needs. In fact, as a freshman, she would visit a child with autism at his home once a week and spend time with him. “Friendship Circle is a big organization in the community and it’s something I wanted to be a part of,” she said. Haaker has also made a little money in her spare time. For the past five summers she has worked as a camp counselor at Willow Lake Day Camp in Roxbury. Not only has she enjoyed it, but it has turned into several babysitting opportunities as well.

As she looks ahead to college in the fall, she feels all of her volunteering and being active has taught her about time management and how to balance social life, school and work. Haaker plans to study human services and social justice at GW and hopes to join many clubs there as well. According to Haaker, she doesn’t do anything for the recognition, but simply because it’s the right thing to do. “I definitely would consider myself a quieter person, but I’m still confident at the same time and that has allowed me to take on those leadership roles and be an active part of the community,” she said.

Livingston Resident Hosts Royal Baby Shower for Moms in Need

By Jon Cronin self-proclaimed British royals super fan has turned her fandom into a way to benefit new moms in need. Livingston resident Jodi Eisner has been a fan of the royals her whole life. She can remember being over excited when Prince Charles married Princess Diana in 1981. “What little girl wouldn’t be fascinated with a real-life princess?” asked Eisner. As she got older, she wanted her friends and family to share in her passion for following the royals. She decided that she would combine it with her love for baking and throw a party. “It all started when I had a

party when William and Kate got married,” Eisner said. She taped the ceremony and played it to an audience of party goers wearing tiaras. “I had a second party when they had a baby,” she noted. This time, she thought to ask her guests to bring items parents need for a newborn baby. “Anything you need to get started when having a baby,” she said. Each year, guests brought baby wipes, diapers, baby clothes, sleepers, feeding equipment, bottles, bibs, towels, blankets, and jackets. After the party, Eisner brought an SUV full of donations to Isaiah House, a shelter continued on page 11

Royal Baby Shower... continued from page 10 in East Orange that helps new moms get on their feet. Last year, Prince William and Kate had their third baby and around the same time Prince Harry married actress Megan Markle, a great making for another party. This time, Eisner reached out to Livingston Neighbors Helping Neighbors, a new charity organization that helps Livingston residents in need. “They were overwhelmed with gratitude,” Eisner said, and the group told her, “We’ll get it to the right people.” This year, the party was held in honor of Meghan and Harry’s first baby. Her family often helps with the parties and indulges Eisner’s passion. This year, her daughter

Laine, 21, was away at college, but her youngest daughter Annie, 16, and her husband Andrew helped. “My husband is a huge football fan. He understands that this is my Superbowl Sunday. He understands when you’re crazy passionate about something. He respects this as I respect football. It’s ok to indulge in it all,” she said. Eisner decided to get a little cheeky and made some royal-themed cocktails like the “An heir and pare of spares,” made with pear vodka, named because a king need an heir to the throne and one heir to spare. She also made a “Markle sparkle” with prosecco-based punch and a “Strawberry mule,” made with ginger

beer in honor of everyone’s favorite ginger prince. “I did all sorts of little mini almond bunt cakes, cheese cakes, brownies, and lemon bars,” Eisner said. As for the donations, “My friends were incredibly generous,” she noted. “People who couldn’t attend sent gifts through Amazon,” Eisner added. Eisner said she filled a minivan with the gifts dropped it off to Livingston Neighbors Helping Neighbors.

Stacey Rubenstein, a board member of Livingston Neighbors Helping Neighbors wrote on the group’s Facebook page wrote, “With a small number of donations directed to a local family, the rest were delivered this morning to St. Michael’s and a home for young mothers in Newark.” Rubenstein added, “We were blown away by Jodi’s creativity and her generous spirit! Thank you to all who attended this wonderful party with a purpose!”

n March 9, JEI Learning Centers hosted its annual National Math Olympiad in East Brunswick, New Jersey. JEI Livingston entered 34 students in the competition out of a total of 791 students across the country, and we’re thrilled to congratulate our four winners! At the 8th grade level, Jack Xu (Mendham, NJ) came in First Place. Kevin Ha (Livingston) and Ryan Zhu (Livingston) both took home Second Place for the 7th and 5th grade levels, respectively. Connor Li (Livingston) received an Award of Merit for the 3rd grade level. Open to JEI students in grades 1 through 8, the national competition puts the students’ problem-solving skills to the test by giving them

50 minutes to answer 30 questions. Speed and accuracy were key to scoring the maximum points possible. The top three students in each grade received cash prizes of $250, $150, and $100. The grand prize winner, the student who scored the highest overall regardless of grade, received a $1000 scholarship and an iPad.

Livingston Senior Youth and Leisure Services Wins Award for Intergenerational Prom

By Dawn M Chiossi ebruary 26th was an amazing night for Livingston’s Senior Youth and Leisure Services (SYLS). That was when they were presented with the prestigious Daniel M Gasalberti Award for excellence in Recreation Programming. Taking place at Harrah’s in Atlantic City during the New Jersey Recreation Park Association’s (NJRPA) Annual Conference, the team enjoyed a formal dinner event where over 20 awards were presented that evening for different categories. The room was filled with New Jersey Recreation Departments and several state officials. The Daniel M Gasalberti Award was named after former New Jersey Recreation and Park Association (NJRPA) President, Daniel M Gasalberti, who had served from 1982-83. He was remembered for his creativity, dedication and devotion to

recreational programs. According to Lilliana Branquinho, Special Events Supervisor who has been working at the Livingston Senior Youth and Leisure Services for 8 years, she says this of the man: “He was beloved by the citizens for the programs

Wins Award... continued from page 15 is beyond thrilled. In fact, the prom is such a hit, Livingston has been enjoying it for an impressive 31 years. The Intergenerational Prom that takes place at Livingston High School is eagerly embraced by everyone. From the seniors, whose ages range from 70 to 90 years old, to the high schoolers from all grade levels. Describing the Intergenerational Prom as something she counts as one of her most anticipated events that the organization does, Branquinho relates, “This event is very special and one of my favorites because I truly enjoy seeing and feeling the happy energy in the room that evening. I know it puts a smile on our seniors faces. I get to see them enjoying each other’s company and interacting with the students. Truth be told, I love to have fun with them,” she shares. “I’m a real proponent of socialization being one of the best antidotes to depression and loneliness, which can be detrimental to seniors’ lives. So every time we can provide our seniors

with an opportunity to have a great time where there’s fellowship, music and food, it’s a good thing.” Branquinho also praises Livingston itself. “We are very fortunate to live and work in a town that completely supports events like this. We are also very thankful to have the support of local businesses and organizations that kindly help sponsor the event. There’s a lot of planning involved so the Intergenerational Prom committee starts early with all the planning and preparations. We are already discussing ideas for next year,” she enthuses. Dinner, dancing, door prizes, even crowning a Prom King and Queen, the Livingston Intergenerational Prom offers so much. The Prom King and Queen are selected on their involvement/volunteerism in the community, and the duo is made up of one senior and one high school student where they alternate the king or queen throughout the years. “This year the Prom King was Vietnam Veteran and VFW Post 2856 Senior Vice

Commander, Brian Boyle. The Queen was Livingston High School’s Key Club member Katrina Pham.” Perhaps the best thing about Livingston’s timeless event in Branquinho’s eyes is the connection and kinship that it creates between the high schoolers and seniors, showing that age is really just a number after all. “The intergenerational prom tries to bridge the gap between two generations that tend to be foreign to one another,” she asserts. “It allows for two completely different generations to come together and enjoy an evening where they can interact and learn about each other in a fun and friendly environment.” “It was an honor to receive the Daniel M Gasalberti Award on behalf of the SYLS Department and the Intergenerational Prom Committee,” Branquinho prides. “A lot of planning and preparation goes into it so it was definitely rewarding. It was a big sense of pride to be recognized by our peers at the New Jersey Recreation and Park Association (NJRPA).”

Mikvah Chana’s Annual Women’s Gala has All the Right Ingredients

By Pamela Macek n Judaism, ritual washing is an important part of daily life. For Jewish women, this expression of faith is required to achieve purity in what is called a mikvah, which is a bath specifically created according to Jewish law. The mikvah is a place where women go to, so they may experience a type of spiritual cleansing that reaffirms the cycle of life. Today, much of American society is clueless on customs like the mikvah. But now there is movement growing in support of these customs right here in New Jersey, all due to the commitment of a group of very dedicated women. Tobah Grossbaum is one of those women. This mother of nine shares about the work of love that has been invested in Mikvah Chana, a facility located in Livingston, that provides these unique baths for the public’s use. Regarding the staff, Grossbaum

explained that, “at Mikvah Chana, women spend their time, energy and resources committed to raising awareness and educating people on the importance of the mikvah and to provide for them the opportunity to return to a lifestyle that includes using the mikvah daily.” This “house of cleansing” was built twelve years ago in loving memory of a woman named Chana Felsen by her children and grandchildren. The purpose and mission were straightforward and simple: carry on the importance of faith and teach it to others by example and through service. Over the years, renovations occur, and Grossbaum shared, “Recently, a ritual bath and bridal room were created, also in memory of a beloved mother.” The motivation to keep the mikvah operating is very strong. It is not just Jewish Orthodox women who seek out solace at Mikvah Chana.

“Women of every type of background are welcome. The initial bathing is free, then there is a nominal monthly fee, which helps support the needed maintenance and daily expenses incurred. The staff are all volunteers, giving their time freely out of conviction to help others understand and experience what participating in the mikvah provides,” explained Grossbaum. Fund raising is an important part of what keeps Mikvah Chana going. Every year, the Women’s Annual Gala is held, and this year it will take place on May 20th at the Hotel Westminster, 550 West Mount Pleasant Ave., Livingston, N.J. Tickets are available on their website. Tobah was excited as she said, “Over 800 women and high school age girls are expected to attend this inspiring event, with gifts, giveaways and raffles adding a bit of fun to the evening.” continued on page 19

Women’s Gala...

continued from page 18 The Gala’s theme is “Ingredients for Success,” and will host two very successful and prominent women from the Jewish community. Melissa Ben-Ishay is a mother as well as accomplished author, entrepreneur and founder of Baked by Melissa, a New York City based business that creates bite-sized cupcakes and treats. Goldie Plotkin, a native New Yorker, is the Co-Director of Chabad of Markham in Thornhill, Ontario and Director of the Torah Tots pre-school. Mrs. Plotkin is a prolific speaker, addressing audiences at faith-based events like the Chabad Annual convention in NYC as well as the Knesset, Israel, where she spoke on matters regarding marriage enrichment. Together, these incredible women, along with Toba Grossbaum and the staff at Mikvah Chana, will bring their enthusiasm and influence to an audience ready to hear their message of strength, joy, faith, beauty, love, family and commitment – ingredients for living a truly successful life.

Unique Salon for Children’s Haircuts that is Fun for Kids Opens in Livingston

ookie Cutters Haircuts for Kids - a child-focused salon with whimsical decorations, fantasy chairs that range from race cars to airplanes, televisions for children to watch as they get a haircut and an indoor play area to let them climb and get their jitters out—is set to continue growing their foot print with a new store that opened in Livingston. Located at 277 Eisenhower Parkway in Livingston, the new salon opened in April. It will be first of three salons that will be owned by husband and wife team Arvind and Neetu Bhandari. Neetu, will be the head of daily operations and run the salon. Arvind and Neetu reside in Livingston. “I used to style my son’s hair until he was 9 years old, and while it was fun, there were times when I was need of a stylist that specialized on working with children” expressed Neetu. “Haircuts should be a fun experience for every child, and a stress-free trip for parents. Cookie Cutters is the perfect salon that appeals to every child’s desire of play while getting a difficult task accomplished. Our salon will take the hassle out of haircuts, and make it a wonderful experience for everyone.” Prior to Cookie Cutters, Neetu spent a decade in the fashion industry working in different roles from freelancing, retail, and production management over the years. Her husband, Arvind, has worked

within the pharmaceutical industry for over 20 years and is the proud founder and CEO of Adira Medica LLC. Together, the couple both come from families with a strong business acumen that has inspired them to become their own independent business owners. “There has been such a positive response to Cookie Cutters in other communities of New Jersey, and we’re excited to be a part of the brand’s growing footprint,” expressed Bhandari. “There is truly a need for hair stylists and salons that know how to work with children. From the store layout of fantasy cars and indoor playground to the one-on-one consultations that are offered for families with children who have specific needs, Cookie Cutters provides everything imaginable to make the haircut experience seamlessly stress-free.” Cookie Cutters offers an interactive haircut experience that both children and parents won’t soon forget. Upon entering the salon, children are welcomed by an in-store playground where they can climb and slide. Come time for the haircut, each station on the cutting floor is outfitted with unique fantasy chairs – from race cars to firetrucks and airplanes – as well as individual televisions for the kids to watch shows and movies. With a balloon, lollipop and a smile at the end of each haircut, the Cookie Cutters experience is designed to keep.

Father’s Day 2019 Excursion Train Rides

n Father’s Day, Sun. June 16, spend the day with Dad at the Whippany Railway Museum where you can climb aboard our mid-1900’s excursion train and enjoy an old-fashioned, pleasant Sunday afternoon with family and friends. Our 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...and they can also learn about and experience the history of New Jersey’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.

Roofing

The train ride is part of the Museum’s operating heritage railroad excursions and travels the route of the historic ‘Whippanong Trail’ through Whippany, East Hanover, Livingston and Roseland in Morris and Essex Counties. The train passes through the remnants of pre-historic Glacial Lake Passaic, a natural swamp which supports abundant wildlife, such as deer, turtles, wild turkeys, hawks and rabbits. 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 our 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 ceiling fans. The Jersey

LUIGI

Coast recalls the 1930›s when the CNJ operated its deluxe coach train, The Blue Comet between Jersey City and Atlantic City, NJ. The striking paint scheme of cream and blue reminds one of a comet streaking through space. It is the only car of its type operating in New Jersey. TRAINS DEPART at 1, 2, 3 & 4 p.m, Rain or Shine from the Museum site at 1 Railroad Plaza at the Intersection of Route 10 West & Whippany Road in Whippany.

Climbing Beyond Cancer:

Randolph Climbing Center Hosts Fundraiser No. 17 Vol. 1 for Epic Experience

n the evening of Saturday December 15, Randolph Climbing Center (RCC) hosted an event Climbing Beyond Cancer to fundraise for the organization Epic Experience. Epic Experience provides free weeklong adventure ex-

periences to adults who have been diagnosed with canacer. “Most organizations that existed at the time when Epic Experience was founded focused on kids or young adults. Epic Experience is the only one who does adults and all stages of Cancer, both

those currently in treatment and survivors,” says Sabine Schwab, who organized the event. Schwab, 36, of Roxbury, was diagnosed with brain cancer in 2014 at age 32, shortly after giving birth to her daughter. Her tumor was about the size of a golf

ball. “I had open brain surgery, six weeks of daily radiation, and a year of chemotherapy,” says Schwab. She is a brain cancer survivor of almost five years now and devotes much of her time volunteering. “I have dedicated my life to the cancer community. I serve on various boards, and I’m a speaker and advocate in the brain tumor community,” says Schwab. S c h wa b attended an Epic Experience camp in May 2015. Schwab’s experience brought her white water rafting on the Colorado River, among other activities. “It’s not just the adventures that bring the healing,” says Schwab, “they also make time for group discussions with commonly shared fears and questions along the cancer journey.” Schwab joined the

Alumni Board of Epic Experience as an Outreach Specialist in June 2015. In 2017, she became the Alumni Team lead, and in 2018 joined the Board of Directors. Schwab enjoys climbing at Randolph Climbing Center and thought it would be the perfect place to fundraise for Epic

Comfort Zone Camp: A Place for Grieving, Healing, and Growing

“I felt very alone, isolated, and different from everyone else my age,” says Pereira. “Going to Comfort Zone Camp helped me learn and understand that I was not alone and never will be in my grief journey.”

By Steve Sears ikki Russo, 25, painfully recalls that day when she was 11-years-old. Her dad had suffered a number of health ailments, and after a scheduled surgery to improve circulation in his legs was deemed successful, two days later he died from a massive heart attack. “My mom and I are very close now, but me and my dad just got each other.” Russo says. “We could just look at each other and know what each other were thinking. So, when I didn’t have that anymore, it was like a piece of my heart was taken away from me. I didn’t know what to do. I didn’t have anyone to talk to. When my dad was sick, I would walk to my bus stop every morning – it was like a rite of passage as a 6th grader, you could walk to the bus stop by yourself – and I would call him every morning. I couldn’t talk to him anymore; it was depressing. It was such a numbing experience that I don’t even remember the first year.” Katie Pereira, who is 24 years old, lost her dad, Franco Lalama, who was killed as he was helping folks exit the World Trade Center during the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, 2001. She was just seven years old. “As a result of my dad’s death,” says Pereira, “I was very angry and did not know how to deal with all of the emotions that

came with grief.” Both discovered Comfort Zone Camp, a bereavement group for young people, and it worked wonders for both. “It was the first time I really cried talking to somebody about it,” claims Russo, a Union City elementary school teacher. “That was the first time I told people my story and really talked about it. It was very beneficial to me and my mom. I always say that Comfort Zone Camp saved me and my mom’s relationship, and I generally believe it saved my life, because I was going down a very bad, destructive path.” “I felt very alone, isolated, and different from everyone else my age,” says Pereira. “Going to Comfort Zone Camp helped me learn and understand that I was not alone and never will be in my grief journey.” An Operations Specialist with the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, she also adds, “Comfort Zone helped me understand my emotions that I was feeling and helped me cope with my loss in a healthy way. I was very angry as a result of my dad’s death so being able to learn how to cope with my emotions at a young age helped shape who I am now.” Lynne Hughes founded Comfort Zone Camp in 1998, seven years before she wrote You Are Not Alone, a bereavement book continued on page 27

continued from page 26 for teens. Camp is currently held primarily in five states: Virginia, Florida, New Jersey, Massachusetts, and California. “My parents died when I was young; my mom died when I was 9, and my dad when I was 12,” says Hughes. “I went to summer camp after my parents died and I loved it. Then, I always wanted to be a camp counselor after I graduated, and then I went to Michigan State when I was in college, and I found a camp outside of Michigan, and then I found one in the Poconos which was co-ed, and then I met someone who suggested we start our own camp.” Hughes was aware that there were no resources for grieving kids, not when she was a child and also when she entered adulthood. The awareness and her experience in camp as a child and then camp counselor encouraged her to combine both into a resource for youngsters who suffered from loss of a sibling or parent. Comfort Zone Camp filled and still fills the void. “Grieving kids grow up in isolation, they might be the only ones in their school or community. When they show up and they meet 60 or 70 other kids at a camp and they visually drink in that message, ‘Gosh, I’m not alone; we’re all here for the same reason,’ it almost frees them up to step outside of their loss to get back to being a kid again.” Comfort Zone Camp has activities to allow kids to grieve, tell their stories, and teaches them skills that will help them in everyday life. The camp is open to individuals ages 7 to 25. Mitch Decter is a Comfort Zone Camp Board member. “I volunteered for my first camp in Richmond, Virginia, and shortly after the tragic events of 9/11, we promptly started to conduct camps for the families affected by the tragic events. Many of the children who attended the camps in 2001 now serve as “big buddies” at our camps. Eventually, we hosted many camps in the New York/New Jersey area for any child who had suffered the loss of a parent or sibling.” Pereira, who is originally from New Jersey and now lives in North Carolina with her husband, has been involved with the camp since 2001, first as a camper, then a junior counselor, and now Big Buddy and volunteer. “It feels great to be able to give back to a place that gave me my life back.”

Russo herself has attended Comfort Zone camp 25 times. “In the beginning in New Jersey, they would let campers go more than once a year. Once it became more popular and well known, I could only go once a year. Then I started volunteering as a counselor so that I could go to every camp.” “Many of our adult volunteers suffered a loss when they were a child,” adds Decter. “They always say that they wished there was something like Comfort Zone Camp when they were young. While the volunteers are there to support the children, they are also afforded the opportunity to talk about their loved ones and share the ways in which their loss influenced who they are today. The bond between little buddies and big buddies is extraordinary, and many of the friendships carry on beyond camp. One of my first little buddies was a 7-year-old boy named Tyler, who lost his dad on 9/11. He and I were paired together at camps for almost 10 years. I would visit him and his family from time-to-time and felt a responsibility to be a part of his life. At our most recent New Jersey camp, Tyler, who is now 25 years old, and I volunteered as big buddies together. I watched with such pride and felt like things had come full circle watching him be there for his little buddy.” Per Pereira, Comfort Zone Camp is a “truly magical place.” “You walk into your first camp wondering how it will be, but then when the weekend is over you don’t want to leave. The weekend is set up like a summer camp feel, but everything you do that weekend relates to grief in some way. I took everything I learned about grief and use those learnings in other aspects of life. When someone asks how you can explain Comfort Zone Camp, one word always comes to mind, and that is “bubble.” Comfort Zone Camp is a bubble. You enter into it and you get to be in that moment for the whole weekend and nothing else in your world matters that moment. Camp helps you cope with your death that you experienced in your life, but then you also learn how to cope with other losses that you may encounter throughout life. When one of your loved ones passes away you can also sometimes lose other things that relate to that loss.” Pereira offers the following to those who are not yet ready to share the feelings. “I would say that you do not have to share if you are not ready to. Sometimes you don’t have to say anything to get everything that you need to help cope with your loss, but I would encourage everyone to attend a camp weekend because just being there in the camp bubble will help you cope and help guide you with your grief.” As previously noted by Russo, volunteers – aka “Big Buddies” – benefit as much as those they are aiding. “Absolutely,” agrees Hughes. “Every time you listen to how someone feels, every time you tell someone how you feel, whether you’re a child or an adult mentoring somebody, it gives it purpose and meaning as to why this adversity happened to you, so when you get to give that purpose and meaning to it, give back and pay it continued on page 28

continued from page 27 forward, it helps them to navigate their grief journey, and potentially make it easier for your own, it’s very rewarding.” “It helps you stay connected to your own loved one, too.” Decter agrees. “The most important benefit of Comfort Zone Camp is that the children who attend our camps learn that they are not alone in their grief journey. Many children report that they don’t like to talk about their loss when they are at school because they feel different and alienated. At camp, they are surrounded by other kids and volunteers who have experienced something similar to what they went through.” Comfort Zone Camp is held on the weekends all year round. Sign-up is done via the camp website by creating an account and profile, selecting a camp date, and then there is a screening process after signup. Comfort Zone Camp is free to all children. Activities are the same at all camps but could vary by time of the year. There is time for all-around kids fun, buy also time for breaking the attendees down by age into groups and placing them into grief support circles, which are called “healing circles,” led by a healing circle leader who is a mental health professional. Discussed are stories, feelings, grief in the body, how things have changed at home, talk about different skills, and more. “We know,” says Hughes, “we’re not going to cure or fix everything up during the course of the weekend, but what tools can we give them to help them navigate their day-to-day grief journey, as well as kind of prepare them for big milestones?” Examples are graduations and the like, but also preparing for not taking part in a Father/Daughter Dance for the first time. There are limited travel scholarships offered, so prospective attendees are directed to camps close to their home. More information is available on the Comfort Zone Camp website. “I am incredibly proud of my affiliation with Comfort Zone and it has been such a pleasure to see the positive results of many children who I have watched grow up,” says Decker. “We teach them that their grief journey never ends, it just becomes different over time. I hope that Comfort Zone Camp continues to grow so that

we can continue to support children who should never feel like they are alone. “ Speaking of ‘grow”, volunteers (who are trained) are welcome, as are donations. Hughes says there are kids on a waiting list, so the goal is to get them off the list and into more camps. That, and camps of longer duration, are the goal. Decter adds, “Comfort Zone Camp is free to all families. Therefore, fundraising and corporate sponsorship are what allow us to serve as many grieving children as possible. The more money we are able to raise, the more children can attend camp. Right now, we have three camps scheduled in New Jersey for 2019 -- next year we would love to double that. In addition, we are always looking for people to serve as big buddies. You do not have to had suffered a loss or have any professional experience. Instead, you can attend a training session and learn about what it means to serve as a big buddy.” Hughes speaks to the benefit of her founded, very worthwhile 501 (c) 3. “Comfort Zone Camp is important because kids break their isolation, get back to being a kid again, and get the opportunity to have the peace of their healing. We literally see kids blossom, grow, and heal right in front of our eyes. And there’s nothing more powerful and humbling than being a part of that.” That is something both Russo and Pereira can attest to. “It’s still a rescue for me,” says Russo. “I get choked up just talking about it,” she continues through tears. “I have a boyfriend, and I wish my dad was here now to meet him, talk to him, because I know they would get along. Just going to camp as a Big Buddy now is my saving grace. I get to give advice and talk to kids, it’s really a nice experience.” Pereira adds, “Comfort Zone Camp changed my life. I do not know how I would have been able to cope and deal with my dad’s death if I did not have the support system of my camp family. I grew up with Comfort Zone Camp and I am forever grateful to them for changing my life and showing me that I am not alone.” Visit www.comfortzonecamp.org for more information.
