Local Communities Reach Out To Help Hurricane-Torn Texas

By Elsie Walker at Fricke of Mendham, and her parents Russel and Marie Duryea of Chester, had watched the TV accounts of the devastation Hurricane Harvey left in Texas. They wondered, “how can we help [these people]?” The Duryeas, are owners of R & R Construction Co. Inc, in Chester which is managed by Fricke and her husband, Rusty. The software used by the company is made by HCSS which is based in Houston, Texas. That company was affected by Hurricane Harvey, but not badly. HCSS started to organize and mobilize a relief effort, first reaching out to its employees and then the community to see where help was needed. HCSS put out a blog to let its clients and customers know what was going on and about the relief effort. “We have a truck; we have

a trailer,” was what Fricke’s family thought. They decided to help. They would get out the word of the items needed. HCSS would be their contact in Houston, knowing where the need is and getting the collected items there. R & R construction Co. Inc. even set up a website where people could find out about the effort and how to help. More than three weeks, goods were collected for a truck leaving this month to their Houston contact. A variety of businesses and groups became sponsors, helping to get the word out and collecting goods. Among those that helped were Chester Lions Club, which serves the Chester-Mendham-Long Valley; Community Presbyterian Church in Chester; Ashley Farms in Flanders; Alstede Farms in Chester; Ort Farms in Long Valley; and Turpin Real-

tors at all its locations. Marie Messina of Long Valley led the outreach effort for one group: the Lion’s Club. Messina said that the Lions had been involved in relief efforts during past tragedies, in Louisiana and Arkansas. She explained that R & R construction has been helpful to the Lion’s club over the years and so it made sense to partner with it on this effort. Like Fricke, Messina said that reports had made it clear of the need in Texas. Messina noted that need included things other might not think about as relief items. Messina noted they are “essentials,” things for which there is “immediate need, things people don’t think about, things we take for granted” until di-

saster hits. “Diapers, shampoo, hygiene items, water, pet supplies, coffee,” said Messina in giving just an example of some of the things collected. In addition, she noted that the truck was also taking non- perishable food. Like Fricke, Messina noted that other groups and organizations were involved in helping out. Messina noted that in answer to the Lion’s drive, schools collected items. She shared that those schools that helped the Lions included, “Central High in Chester, Villa Walsh, and the Bernard school.” Messina said, “people were really, really generous. It was a community effort.”

By Cheryl Conway elcome to the new Mendham News publication. Readers can expect the same great positive stories local to the area, but at the same time enjoy the smaller, compact paper easier to take along and even keep intact without pages falling out. The new format is really a blend between a newspaper and magazine. “The only difference is the size and the cover,” says Joe Nicastro, co-publisher of New View Media Group LLC along with Mary Lalama. “We still will have news and local articles. In fact the actual size of the image area is exactly the same in length at 10” just the width is 7.5” instead of 10.” New View Media Group currently publishes 14 monthly newspapers and four bi-monthlies, covering stories in 42 mu-

That grew to eight papers, to 15 in 2015 when they added seven new publications in the Eastern part of N.J. and changed their name to New View Media with an idea to “have a new view on media,” says Nicastro. Since then, they added on four more bi-monthlies in the northeastern region of N.J. stretching into Passaic County with the publication of the Hometown News. “I am always looking for ways to improve the product,” says Nicastro regarding the recent style change of his papers. “After discussion with many continued on page 4

New Magazine-Style...

continued from page 3 readers over a period of time the same suggestion was being said. They wanted a magazine type publication that would not have pages fall out when moved and something smaller that is easier to handle. This was a tough decision as the printing costs are about 15 percent higher than the large size. But I wanted to make sure the readers get what they want to keep the papers longer which will help advertisers.” While photos have always been included, the publications attract readers with a larger colorful photo on the front cover. “It allows us to feature a large local photo on the front cover and as well as offer our advertisers some other advertising options,” says Nicastro,

adding that he is pleased with all the positive feedback he has received so far. “I have to say in my 30 years of publishing I have received more positive responses to the magazine format than anything else I have done,” he says. “I even received calls from many small businesses looking to advertise.” Here are a couple of the emails received applauding the change: “ I love the new look of paper, so much easier for people to take with them! Awesome! Liz M, Mt.Olive. Dear Editor: Thank you for such a wonderful Wayne Hometown News booklet. It ‘s so convenient to hold and very legible. The articles are inter-

esting and quite informative, the advertisers are great. Keep up the good work. Camille.

Morris Libraries Expand Its Digital Library Program

By Jason Cohen n order to keep up with the ever evolving technological times, libraries have had to adapt. Now, residents and teachers in Morris County can access books on their personal devices, without leaving home. Now that the school year has started, MAIN (The Morris Automated Information Network) consortium libraries are making things more appealing for youngsters and even adults who are tech savvy. MAIN consortium library card holders now have the opportunity to use the TumbleBooks Library to access digital children’s story books, read along eBooks, videos, games and more. In order to help grant access to services like Tumblebooks. MAIN Executive Director Phillip Berg feels this will not only help library membership, but enhance education. “The MAIN member libraries felt it important to help support the efforts of teachers and school libraries by not just offering a limited courtesy library card to teachers, but a full access one,” Berg said.“ Educating our young people is an important endeavor which (public libraries) can and should help as members of the greater local community.” Additionally, K‐12 teachers can register for a full service library card in the town in which they teach if they do not al-

ready reside in the MAIN public libraries service area. TumbleBookLibrary is a curated database of children’s e-books, available by subscription to Elementary Schools and Public Libraries around the world. Library users may access TumbleBooks by visiting a participating library’s website or installing the app on their smartphone. Users will be asked for their library card number to verify their access. Visit your library’s website for a link or go to: http://bit.ly/maintumblebooks. Emily Weisenstein, head of youth services at Madison Public Library, who co‐chairs the MAIN Youth Services Committee, feels this new app is a step in the right direction. “It is a fantastic resource for our patrons,” Weisenstein said. “They offer a wide range of juvenile eBooks that children can access at anytime, anywhere – all they need is an Internet connection and a library card. I especially like their selection of interactive picture books, which allows children to read along with some of their favorite titles. It’s fun, easy to use, and popular.” MAIN libraries joined the rest of the country in celebrating September as National Library Card Signup Month. MAIN was originally created in 1980 when several of Morris

Mendham High School Football Player May Have Heart Of A Giant

By Anya Bochman ebastian Quinn, 16, of Chester, has been intermittently making local news for a few years now, mostly related to his ongoing struggle with ALCL non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, a cancer he was diagnosed with in eighth grade. A fundraiser for his treatment and the use of a V-Go robot that allowed him to attend class remotely while undergoing chemotherapy have all been documented by various news outlets. Now, the West Morris Mendham High School junior is giving interviews for a happier reason – 18 months since a life-saving bone marrow transplant, donated by his brother, and about a year since his last cancer treatment- Quinn has been medically cleared to do what he loves: Play football. As part of his full-time return both to school and athletics, he is also looking ahead at

a nomination for the Heart of a Giant Award, presented by the Hospital for Special Surgery and the New York Giants. Quinn’s football head coach, Brett Ressler, submitted his nomination for the award, which honors outstanding athletes for their character. “As a coach, you try to find ways for your players to be acknowledged; and no kid fits [this award] better,” Ressler says. “No kid has gone through more adversity with his head held high.” Ressler is quick to name Quinn’s attributes, describing him as a hard worker who “always comes early and stays late to get the job done,” a diligent student busy with his PSATs as well as a modest team player. “He’s not looking for attention – just success for his team,” Ressler points out. For his part, Quinn is simply content to continue with the continued on page 8

Of A Giant... Did Plants Play A Role In The Civil War? Heart continued from page 7

Mendham Historical Society Will Explore

edicinal plants of the Civil War will be discussed Nov. 14 at 7:30 p.m., when members of The Mendham Borough Historical Society gather in the Garabrant Center, Mendham. Lesley Parness will present the program. The connection of people and plants, told one story at a time, introduces the question here whether plants could have played a role in the outcome of the Civil War. How important were they in every aspect of those battles and also at the home fronts in the North and South? Numerous plants, properties and “receipts” (recipes) are included, as well as some “tidbits” of interest, often surprising the audience as to how many Civil War” plants they are growing. Within this illustrated

story, historic images create a compelling tale of interest to history lovers as well as gardeners. For Parness, travel, academic studies and work provided a rewarding context for her love of plants. Retired in 2017 as superintendent of horticultural education at the Morris County Park Commission, she offers illustrated lectures and hands-on workshops for groups, master gardeners, public garden professionals; is a speaker at shows, conferences, NJCWRT, Gettysburg Museum of the Civil War, and is founder and president of NPO “Garden State Gardens.” The program and parking are free and open to the public.

game he has played since first grade and right until his diagnosis and treatments. “I was surprised and very honored,” says Quinn upon hearing about the nomination. Quinn’s father, Eric, recalls his son having to watch his team’s games during his freshman year, unable to participate. He spoke of his son’s history with the sport, and his teammates’ supportive response to his struggle while undergoing chemotherapy – including their naming Quinn honorary captain. “I felt the biggest impact [of my diagnosis] was that I wouldn’t be able to play sports,” Quinn said. “I was so determined to play that year.” Fortunately, things are looking up for the teenager, who is currently undecided about future plans that he hopes include continuing to play football.

The Week Three finalist for the Heart of a Giant Award was expected to be announced on Mon., Oct. 16. The award, presented jointly by Hospital for Special Surgery and the New York Giants, “aims to recognize Tri-State area high school football players who demonstrate unparalleled work ethic and a passion for the game.” If Quinn is named as one of six possible finalists, he will have to submit a video to the organization explaining why he deserves the top honor, a prize that includes the Heart of a Giant trophy, a $5,000 grant to his football team and an on-field award ceremony during the New York Giants’ home game. Even if Quinn is not named as one of the finalists – an honor which also comes with several prizes – his coach says that any recognition matters. “We want to get his story out there,” Ressler states.

39.5 Acre Golden Investment Property

ocated approximately 50 miles due west of New York City, 11 Wright Lane, Mendham, this 39.5 acre property is a rare gem set in the idyllic countryside of Mendham.

Preservation Efforts Lauded In Mendham Borough Serving Northern and Central Jersey For Over 20 Years!

FREE ESTIMATES

Freeholders Kathy DeFillippo, John Cesaro, Deborah Smith, Hank Lyon, Councilman Stan Witczak are shown with Mayor Neil Henry, Freeholder Christine Myers, Councilman John Andrews, and Freeholder Doug Cabana.

he Morris County Freeholders recently honored Mendham Borough with a historic preservation marker for its preservation efforts on the 19th Century Phoenix House, an iconic structure that is located in the borough’s historic district and has long served as the borough hall. The historic integrity of the building, located at 2 West Main Street, has been preserved through the efforts of the borough, with financial assistance from county and state preservation programs. Mendham Mayor Neil Henry and Councilmen John Andrews and Stan Witczak accepted the historic marker at the freeholder’s Sept. 27 “road meeting’’ held in Mendham Borough. Historic preservation planning and restoration done at the borough hall was partly

financed through the Morris County Historic Preservation Grant Program, which provided $115,000 to the borough. “This great building which sits prominently in Mendham is a true symbol of the history of the borough and Morris County,’’ said Freeholder Director Doug Cabana. “The Borough has done remarkable work in preserving a treasure for their community. We congratulate them for their outstanding effort.’’ At the Sept. 27 meeting, Freeholder Christine Myers awarded the marker to borough officials. Phoenix House has been a significant landmark in Mendham Borough since the early 19th century. Its Federal style and gambrel roof were documented by the Historic American Buildings Survey in 1936.

all is perfect for making time for fun before the busy holiday season – go for a fall picnic, visit your local orchard or pumpkin patch, and take advantage of all the flavors fall has to offer. Try these delicious, comforting, no-hassle fall ideas that won’t carve a big chunk out of your budget: • The great taste of seasonal produce can stand on its own, adding star power to simple recipes.

Bake until the sugars caramelize and fruits soften. • Take on-the-go snacks to the next level by coating almonds or garbanzo beans in your favorite seasonal spices and baking until crispy. No matter the season, trim time grocery shopping by relying on a one-stop-shop like ALDI. Whether you’re looking for a new pumpkin spice treat or need quality ingredients for your famous chili, you can find it all at wallet-friendly prices. Find more tips and recipes for a hassle-free fall at ALDI.us.

Two Organizations Recognized For Improved School Climate And Culture

op ankin ng ng arng me8

or For the second time, a national organization has applauded the work being done by the College of Saint Elizabeth and United Way of Northern New Jersey to help New Jersey’s K-12 students learn and succeed by improving the climate and culture in local schools. The American Psychological Association awarded its John Kalafat Community Program Award to the two organizations for their partnership on the School Culture and Climate Initiative, which is involved in 40 schools across the region serving 17,000 students. The initiative is considered one of the most comprehensive in New Jersey for both improving school climates and promoting students’ health and wellness from kindergarten through 12th grade. The association chose to recognize the initiative as it exemplifies the work of former Rutgers University professor and psychologist Dr. John Kalafat in building bridges between research and improving the world, creating a positive impact on communities and excellence in crisis intervention, according to the award committee. Across northern N.J., schools have turned to this

initiative to help address what leading experts, the most respected studies and New Jersey’s anti-bullying law say is the foundation for all learning – a healthy school climate. United Way and CSE work with schools to evaluate their culture and climate, uncover the conditions contributing to the environment and collaborate to create a roadmap toward sustainable improvement. Both organizations also offer complementary programs that expand beyond the initiative to reach an even wider network of school professionals. United Way’s School Support Network provides free training and networking opportunities for educators across the region to learn and share best practices in creating a positive school climate. The Center for Human and Social Development at the college, in partnership with Rutgers University, offers an online professional certificate program and virtual professional learning community for social emotional learning and character development in schools (Selinschools.org). The center also houses a school culture and climate assessment lab which provides a school climate survey and data assessment support to schools.
