Grace Community Opens Its Ears To International Sound
YRA, The Russian Vocal Ensemble of St. Petersburg has a quartet currently touring the U.S. that plans to give a concert as part of Grace Community Music at Grace Church on Mon., Sept. 12, at 7:30 at Grace Church in Madison. Admission is by donation at the door. LYRA is a community of professional musicians. Most members are students or postgraduates of SaintPetersburg Conservatoire, working in different choirs of Saint-Petersburg. Though the members represent different musical professions: choir conductors, opera singers, instrumentalists, music teachers - they are all united by love for choir and ensemble singing. The choir community LYRA includes about 25 people who usually tour in small groups of soloists consisting of four to sixpeople. The main goal of LYRA is exploring and pop-
M
ularizing Russian choir music. Through performances, it introduces the enormous musical heritage of the Russian Orthodox Church, as well as traditions of Russian folk music. Music ranges from ancient songs of the Orthodox Church to works of littleknown, but remarkable composers. Members of the Grace Church Adult Choir and School Choir II, which is sixth
graders and up, will join them for the finale of the first half of the concert. For the second half of the concert the quartet will perform different folk songs of lyric, dancing and ritual nature, as well as their own arrangements of folk songs. Come on out for this rare international opportunity right here in Madison. For more information, call 201-274-4617.

Freeholders Honor Museum For Preservation And Restoration Project
he Morris County Freeholders have honored the Museum of Early Trades and Crafts in Madison with a Historic Preservation plaque for their dedicated effort to preserve and restore their more than century-old museum building, which once served as the borough library. The museum, located on Main Street in downtown Madison, is architecturally unique – one of the few Richardsonian Romanesque style buildings remaining in Morris County. Museum Executive Director Deborah Starker and Museum Board Secretary Virginia Wilson accepted the historic plaque at the freeholder’s June 22 meeting held at the County Administration Building in Morris-
T
town. The restoration project was partly financed with the assistance of the Morris County Historic Preservation Grant Program, which provided $613,000 for the project over a number of years. The Museum of Early Trades provided 20 percent matching funds for these projects. “This is quite a beautiful building, one that really displays the history of Madison and of our county,’’ said Freeholder Director Kathy DeFillippo. “It is certainly a structure well worth preserving, and prime example of the need for our historic preservation grant program.’’ Morris County Historic Preservation Program Coordinator Ray Chang provided details of the Museum’s project.
The structure was built in 1900 as the Madison Public Library, a gift to the people by philanthropist D. Willis James. The building served as the town library until 1967 when it outgrew the space. It is still owned by the Borough of Madison and has been home to the Museum of Early Trades & Crafts for more than 45 years. The building is individually listed on the New Jersey and National Registers of Historic Places and is a contributing resource to a Register-listed historic district. With assistance from County Historic Preservation grants totaling more than $613,000, the Museum has successfully completed two phases of moisture mitigation, replication of four orig-

WHAT’S NEW IN DENTISTRY Recently, the Food and Drug Administration approved a new dental material called silver diamine fluoride, which has been used for decades in Japan. This new material can arrest large tooth decay after removing the decay with a hand instrument. While it is not a permanent solution to treating cavities, it has a wide variety of applications. For instance, it is good for treating cavities in small children. If a three-year-old child has many large cavities in his or her baby teeth but is fearful of the dentist, this new material is a viable option for treatment. The dentist can simply remove the decay with a hand instrument, dry the affected tooth and apply this material. After this, the dentist can go back and restore the teeth one by one at a later date, when the child is more readily able to handle the procedure. The application diamine fluoride can also help those with delayed dental insurance coverage. Sometimes, a patient has a tooth awaiting treatment. His or her dental insurance will not cover the procedures until months later when it becomes effective. This patient can have the material applied as a temporary solution until insurance can cover the procedures to properly treat the tooth. Due to the simplicity of the applica-

tion of silver diamine fluoride and the economical nature of this type of treatment, the patient can meet a budget. Other applications include geriatric care. Many senior patients have a limited budget, yet have many large root cavities due to various medical conditions. Silver diamine fluoride can economically arrest multiple cavities after one procedure. It provides a valuable and cost-effective alternative. As always, my office stays at the forefront of dental technology and material science. Our mission is to serve the community at large the best we can.

Opened since March 2014, Retro Fitness of Florham Park is part of the Retro Fitness brand established in 2004, a New Jersey based company known for introducing large scale fitness centers with affordable membership prices to markets that previously only offered more expensive alternatives. The company was founded by entrepreneur Eric Casaburi and has evolved from a regional Northeast gym concept into a national franchise system with more than 145 gyms in operation across 16 states. “It’s been exciting to be part of the brand’s growth as a franchise owner,” says Teresa Intravaia, co-owner of Retro Fitness in Hanover. “We opened Retro Fitness to provide the community a comprehensive facility that will help them achieve their health and fitness goals at an affordable price,” says Intravaia. “Retro Fitness allows us to do this without skimping out on the necessities for a good workout.

Chief Lou DeRosa, accepted the historic plaque at the freeholder’s June 8 meeting held at the Mennen Sports Arena in Morris Township. The restoration project was partly financed with the assistance of the Morris County Historic Preservation Grant Program, which provided $75,000 for the project. The borough provided $75,000 in matching funds
for the project. “This is an absolutely unique restoration project, and one that really preserves a hands-on part of our county’s history,’’ said Freeholder Director Kathy DeFillippo. “It is certainly far different than most other preservation projects the county has funded but certainly one that is very deserving.

great effort.’’ The Ahrens Fox P-4 Fire Truck is affectionately called “Geraldine,” as it was originally purchased and given to Madison in 1921 by Geraldine R. Dodge, who also gave the Borough as a gift the Hartley Dodge Memorial Building – which is the borough town hall. Geraldine represents the transition from bucket brigades to continuous stream firefighting. Although nine of these vehicles originally were originally constructed, there are only three remaining examples of this model. Geraldine is a contributing “structure’’ to the Hartley Dodge Memorial Building, which is a key-contributing building in the New Jersey and National Register listed Madison Civic Commercial Historic District.
With assistance from a County Historic Preservation grant of $75,000, the borough successfully completed the acquisition of the Fire Truck, with the Borough of Madison providing the 50 percent match. Geraldine Rockefeller Dodge was the youngest daughter of William A. Rockefeller Jr. In 1907, she married Marcellus Hartley Dodge, president of the Remington Arms Company. In 1916, they purchased the estate in Madison that is now known as Giralda Farms.

Find Your Dance Friend Forever At Theater Dance Center!
E
by Millene Michel – Artistic Director at TDC very memory of childhood is filled with friends who were there to share them. These friends are not always easy to find especially in our busy world. Encouraging friendships can be hard for parents, because kids need to have a bond with one another. Friends are created because the children have something in common, spend lots of time together and enjoy events for the entire family. Dance is a great way to help your child find their DFF! (Dance Friend Forever) I am one of those lucky people. Dance not only helped me find lifelong friends, but it kept me out of trouble, I was never bored and it also helped me come out of my shell. Without dance, I would not be the confident person I am today…. Without dance I wouldn’t have the life I have today. I am the director of Theater Dance Center in Flanders. I am proud to say that I am still in touch with most of my friends from dance. We were in each other’s weddings and still get together regularly. Now in business for 25 years, It is wonderful to share our successes as dancers and friends. Giving your child the gift of dance has so many benefits. It gives them confidence, a great sense of self, teaches teamwork, coordination, compassion as you work with others. One learns how to live a healthy lifestyle, taking care of your body. Sharing memories of your first recital together, trips to competitions or performances at the carnival or for senior citizens. Spending weekly classes together, sharing the challenges in class or the successes in each other’s efforts. We at Theater Dance Center witness the bonding of friends all the time. We cultivate relationships with our students that last much longer than just the years they train. We are now training dancers whose parents were our students. Watching our students grow into young adults who are successful and confident is what makes us love what we do. Dance training is only a small portion of the real impact we have on our student’s lives. TDC is celebrating its 25th year. I, Millene Michel, along with my best friend Mary Ellen Volz have directed and taught our students and shared memories that we will never forget. Our faculty is special, they are trained, experienced and most of all loving and care about their students. We offer Ballet, Pointe, Tap, Jazz, Hip Hop, Lyrical, Contemporary, Acrobatics. We offer classes for all the lovers of dance, whether you wish to dance for fun or want to pursue a career in dance. Some New programs we are offering this year: Tumbling Tigers for ages three to nine, Musical Theater dance for The-
atrical kids, Teen Yoga and Yogi-Barre for adults. We invite you to come see what makes us family. Open House Registration is now in progress… but you can come to our celebration on Aug. 27 from 10 a.m.-1 p.m. we will be offering free sample classes, free gifts and mention this article and get a discount on your registration fee. www.theaterdancecenter.com (973) 584-5020; 230 U.S. Highway 206 in Flanders.

Chamber Of Commerce Honors Eight Local Businesses In Age-Old Tradition
by Ashley Bouwense t was a night of celebration and recognition for the eight local businesses honored at the Madison Chamber of Commerce’s 73rd Annual Awards Dinner. Local Madison business owners were recognized Mon., June 6 from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m., at The Madison Hotel for their achievements this past year. The evening included a buffet, cash bar, door prizes and an awards ceremony that was held in the Victorian Room. About 100 guests attended the event. "The Chamber's Annual Award Dinner honors outstanding Madison businesses and this year we also recognized improvements to the community by the good people of several vital, local non-profits," said Chamber President John Morris.

Touch A Truck Event Benefits Madison Library
By Maryanne Christiano-Mistretta bout 2,000 people came out to the Touch a Truck event on Sat., July 30. The fun, family event was held on the grounds of the Madison Public Library and the Madison Area YMCA to benefit the Madison Public Library. Events included free magic shows featuring Simon Mandal of “The Simon Show,” new and antique railroad memorabilia including working Lionel O Gauge trains and refreshments provided by Firehouse Pizza. Some of the trucks and vehicles that children were allowed to sit in included a tractor trailer, a 35-ton tow truck, a crane, a fork lift, a mini excavator, a dump truck, a mail truck, an animal van, a school bus, a pediatric ICU unit, a police patrol car, a plumbing truck, an ambulance, a Harley Davidson Motorcycle and a Good Humor truck. Sue Heffernan, corresponding secretary of Friends of Madison Library said that the event is run every two years and has been running since 2006 or 2008. She said, “It’s a fun community event with kids.”
Fully Insured Free Estimates
With a pay-one price wristband, the price is kept low as a “give back to the community,” according to Heffernan. Dominic DeRosa, of the Madison Fire Department, said, “It’s a great event. It helps build trust in the community.” Mital Vora, of New Providence, who came with her two-year-old daughter Myrah, said, “We love it. My kid is crazy about trucks and cars, which are usually for boys. But this event teaches her that girls could do anything.” Mary Ellen Lenahan and Paul Clark volunteered their Miata truck, as well as their 1991 Mazda Miata to use in the event. Clark said, “It’s more ‘kids size.” Jack Konner, five, was keyed up about both the police car and the fire engine. He said he wants to be a fireman when he grows up. Nora Lendvai-Lintner, six, from Burbank, Calif., was in New Jersey with her family visiting her grandparents. Excited about many of the events, she said, “I love balloons and face painting! I was an assistant for the magic show and we had a picnic!”
Kirk Oakes, was a volunteer checking badges. He called the event “rewarding” and said, “It’s a great cause, a good fundraiser and a great family outing for the whole town. People come from all over.” He paused and added, “It always seems like the event is held on the hottest day of the year.”
Volunteer for the Madison Ambulance Corp, Ahsan Ullah, of Madison, said, “It’s really wonderful; a really nice community event. I enjoy working with the kids. Any moment to give back is a moment to be taken. I’m hoping to influence others.”

Morris County To Hold First Annual Recovery Walk This September
by Ashley Bouwense he Freedom House Foundation and The George Gramby Observance Committee are teaming together to coordinate the first-annual Morris County Recovery Walk set for 9 a.m., Sat., Sept. 10 at Ginty Field in Morristown. “This recovery walk was not only formed to raise awareness for alcohol and drug addictions, but also to celebrate recovery,” Director of Freedom House’s Marketing and Development Dawn Knill said. “We want to show that there is hope and life after addition.” Knill explained that there is a state-wide annual recovery walk, but people felt that there needed to be something local. So, volunteers and staff from Freedom House—a non-profit, residential treatment center for adult men—and members of the non-profit George Gramby Committee decided to collaborate on this local effort. “We still see people with addiction afraid to say ‘I’m in recovery,’” said Knill. “be-
cause people still see addiction as a choice, not a disease. We hope the Recovery Walk will destigmatize addiction. The more we talk about it, the better off everyone will be.” The Recovery Walk is a family-friendly event; all ages can participate. The walk is two-and-a-half miles long and is estimated to take 49 minutes. Participants will reach the finish line at George Gramby Memorial Park, where a celebration filled with music and refreshments. People are also encouraged to visit the addiction education recovery vendors. Those in the Honor Guard, people who have been in recovery for 10 years or more, will lead the walk. They will be honored with sashes and buttons. Behind the Honor Guard will be the rest of those participating. Freedom House and the George Gramby Committee are reaching out to town dignitaries to guest speak after the walk. More than 700 substance abuse deaths were reported in N.J. alone in 2014, and those statistics do not account for unreported
New View Media Group Applauds Some Area Schools For Ranking High On National List
A
By Cheryl Conway s schools throughout New Jersey take in the final weeks of summer before opening their doors to the 2016/2017 school year, some may take a bow to a job well done in making the country’s list as a top public high school. In a recent ranking released by “Newsweek,” six public high schools in the coverage area of New View Media Group newspapers made the list for top 500 schools in the country. In the top 500, there were 51 N.J. public high schools listed among the nation’s best in Newsweek's 2016 list. Out of nearly 16,000 public high schools in the Newsweek rankings, Chatham High School ranked number
40; Madison High School ranked 115; Hanover Park High School in East Hanover ranked 365; Livingston High School ranked 383; Whippany Park High School ranked 429; and Mt. Olive High School in Flanders, ranked 482. The school rankings are the result of research conducted by “Newsweek,” along with Westat, an analytic firm. They used objective measurements to determine the annual ranking such as the ratio of full-time student enrollment/counselor; SAT/ACT scores; graduation rate; and college enrollment rate. Congratulations to all of the schools who made the 2016 list for top public high schools in the nation.

deaths. The Freedom House Foundation and The George Gramby Observance Committee are trying to reduce the number of addictionrelated deaths through this Recovery Walk, but they also need the support from the community to make a difference. “The only way we can be successful is if the community comes together as a whole,” Knill said. Registration costs $10 for those 13-years or older and those ages six to 12 have a $5 registration fee. Those registering six-yearsold and older will receive a Recovery Walk T-shirt. Children five-years-old and under can participate for free.
A
There is no limit to registration, but people should register early if they would like a t-shirt, as shirts are limited. Participants are encouraged to be creative; they can bring banners and posters and wear home-made shirts, if they so choose. Check in is from 8 a.m. to 9 a.m. People can register during check in time. The rain date is schedule for Sun., Sept. 18, 3 p.m. to 8 p.m. Register for the walk online at www.grambyday.org or mail the registration form to The George Gramby Observance Committee, P.O. Box 135, Morristown, N.J. 07960.
STEM Taking Schools By Storm
n increased focus on STEM education is one of the most influential initiatives to reach schools in recent years. STEM is an acronym for Science, Technology, Engineering and Math. The world has become increasingly complex and competitive, and today’s youth need to be equipped with the knowledge and skills to evaluate ideas and turn them into productive applications. These are two of the key hallmarks of STEM. According to the National Science Foundation, STEM subjects include chemistry, computer and information technology science, engineering, geosciences, life sciences, mathematical sciences, physics and astronomy, social sciences (anthropology, economics, psychology and sociology), and STEM education and learning research. Recognizing that more and more students are gravitating toward STEM-focused fields and that projected STEM job rates are rising steadily, schools have begun to beef up their offerings with regard to STEM subjects. Jobs in mathematics, computer system analysis, systems software, and biomedical engineering are just some of the careers in which anywhere from a 15 to 62 percent increase between 2010 and 2020 is predicted, according to the U.S. Department of Education. Individuals may believe that STEM study begins in high school, but the success of older students in STEM subjects is often shaped much earlier on. That’s
why parents and educators can do much to cultivate an interest in natural and social sciences as well as in math as early as possible. Here are a few ideas to do just that. • Encourage participation in the community. Various national clubs and science-based organizations have begun to pay more attention to STEM and offer activities that foster a greater love of science, engineering and math. By joining such clubs and organizations, students can learn more about these subjects and reinforce their enjoyment. • Set up an internship or meet-andgreet. Take students to STEM-centered places of employment so they can get a firsthand experience from within the STEM trenches. Provide opportunities for students to chat with people in the field and ask questions about the type of schooling necessary to pursue a particular degree, and if any hobbies and other activities promote STEM learning. • Investigate school-based opportunities. Schools are broadening course offerings and also establishing STEM-based clubs. Students have the opportunity to get involved with other like-minded classmates. If a club isn’t already available, a teacher or a parent can consider volunteering to serve as the head of the club. STEM is a hot topic of discussion in the world of education. Students can expect to get plenty of exposure to scienceand math-related topics both inside and out of the classroom.

Fred And Ethel Looking For Home
Active Dog Likes Hiking
eet Bandit from Eleventh Hour Rescue. Bandit is a playful Pointer/ Labrador Retriever mix who is about four years old. He has impeccable manners both inside and outside and will steal anyone’s heart with one glance. He is an active dog who likes to walk and sniff, and one of his favorite activities is hiking. He is strong on a leash but walks well with a harness. Bandit is a smart and affectionate dog who at one time lived with three small children and loved them very much. However, he can be selective with other dogs, so he should be the only dog in the home. Bandit also loves to ride in the car, is house-trained and never barks.
