The Party Goes On At Lead East

By Elsie Walker t’s rare that someone can say they’ve hosted a party that’s been going on for 35 years. However, Terry Cook of Appleton Productions in Long Valley can say just that. A former automotive journalist and hot rodder, who began manufacturing his own car designs in the late 1990s, Cook’s event started as a car show; but it has transformed into a celebration of the 1950’s. It’s called Lead East and it is known as the world’s biggest ‘50s party. For a few days each year, people can leave the woes of the current days behind

them and visit a more carefree time. From classic cars- not only from the ‘50s- to the sounds, sights, and dance of the 50’s, Lead East has it all. Also, this year, joining in on the time travel fun is Barry Weiss of TV’s “Storage Wars.” Lead East is held at the Parsippany Hilton. This year’s event will opened to spectators Thursday – Sunday, Aug. 31 – Sept. 3. About 1,400 classic car, 1974 and earlier, from around the country are expected at this year’s event. However, on Sunday, “will be one big parking lot full of corvettes,” noted Cook.

4 BAXTER FARM ROAD HARDING TWP Low taxes and a Harding Twp location make this custom built center hall colonial very desirable. Among its many features are 5 bedrooms, 3 and 1 half baths, an English patio, and small fish pond. This very spacious home has the perfect floor plan for an Au-pair or in0law suite. Freshly painted and ready to move in and enjoy. Conveniently located near major highways and close to Morristown. This home is also available for rent.

Usually only cars up to the 1970’s would be allowed that day, but this year corvettes of any year, 19532017, will be welcomed. For car enthusiasts, “Big Daddy” Don Garlits will be on hand. He’ll cackle his Swamp Rat 12. Cook explained that means Garlits will rev up the engine and, since there’s no muffler, car enthusiasts will get the smell and sound they enjoy. Cook will be quick to point out that Lead East is about more than cars and that is what has made it endure. “[It’s the] atmosphere of the 1950’s; the atmosphere is everywhere,” he said. That atmosphere includes music, movies and dances of the era. Some highlights include a pool party with two rockabilly bands plus music on the outdoor and indoor stages on Friday night of the event. On the weekend, there are four stages with live music. On Saturday, that includes Afternoon A

Capella with eight great Doo Wap groups. On Sunday, there will be tribute bands to Dion and Frankie Valli and the 4 Seasons. “They are really good,” noted Cook. The opportunities to dance abound including a sock hop and dance party. As it has for 34 of its years, Lead East will include a drive-in theater set-up. Among this year’s offerings are “The Thing from Another World,” a 1951 monster flick with James Arness of “Gunsmoke fame” as the monster, “Them,” a 1954 science fiction bug classic, and a more recent movie (1971), the Steven Spielberg classic, “Duel” with Dennis Weaver. Giving is also part of Lead East. There will be a 50-50 for Make-A-Wish and, as they have for years, the local Toys for Tots will be on hand to collect toys to give needy children at Christmas. Given the event’s theme,

some people may wonder what special guest Barry Weiss has to do with the ‘50s, how he came to be part of this year’s party. “I’ve known Barry for years,” said Cook. Weiss bought the most famous car that Cook ever built: the Scrape 1930 Lincoln Zephyr. “People recognize Barry all the time. He’ll be

floating around Lead East Friday and Saturday and sitting down inside for autographs on Sunday from noon – 3 p.m., where people can stand on line to meet him,” said Cook. For Lead East admission cost, daily schedule, and other information, visit its website at leadeast.net or the Lead East Facebook page.

Rare American Flags On Display In Morris County Library

merican flags from the 18th, 19th and 20th centuries are on display in the lobby of the Morris County Library through Sept. 15. The Morris County Heritage Commission and the Morris County Library are presenting a special display entitled “Saluting Old Glory: Our Nation’s Flag.’’ The display details the history of the Star-Spangled Banner, and is on view through Tues., Aug. 25. Items in the exhibit cases will be on view through Sept. 15. Flags and exhibit cases of related items are on view on the first and second floors. A third exhibit case, lo-

cated on the fifth floor of the County Administration Building in Morristown, also features examples of rare and unusual American flags. Visitors to the county library exhibit can view a selection of American flags and see the changes that took place from the Colonial Period to the Mid-20th Century. Also on view are vintage children’s books, period photographs and other materials related to the Stars and Stripes. While each flag in the exhibit has an interesting history, three have ties to Morris County. The first, on loan from the Historical Society of Boonton Township, is an

original 35-star Civil War flag. This rare American flag was handed down to Mrs. Oscar Kincaid, Sr., from her aunt, and remained in the Kincaid family for almost 150 years. The second is a small 39-star silk parade flag with hand-painted gold stars, on loan from the Morristown Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution. A third flag, from the special collections in the Morris County Archives, was handcrafted in silk in 1940, and is on display in the library lobby.

Community Input Sought For Morristown Vegetation, Deer Plan

orristown National Historical Park has announced the availability of its Draft Vegetation and White-tailed Deer Management Plan/ Environmental Assessment for public review and comment. The purpose of the plan is to address issues associated with non-native invasive plant species proliferation that prevents native tree regeneration, the effects of white-tailed deer browsing on tree regeneration and the loss of key aspects of the park’s cultural landscape. Two public meetings will be held in August to discuss and solicit public input on the draft plan. The meetings will be held Aug. 23 from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. and Aug. 24 from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. at the

park’s Washington’s Headquarters Museum Auditorium, Morristown. The National Park Service originally proposed developing an environmental impact statement (EIS) in 2010. The information gathered during formal scoping period in 2011 was used by planners to refine alternatives and work through impact analysis on natural and cultural resources for the development of a Vegetation and White-tailed Deer Management Plan. After careful analysis and consideration, the NPS has changed the environmental compliance pathway from an EIS to an environmental assessment. The 30-day public comment period for review of the plan is open now

through Sept. 8. Interested parties may obtain an electronic version of the draft plan and/or submit electronic comments through the Planning, Environment and Public Comment (PEPC) website at: https://parkplanning.nps.gov/projectHome. cfm?parkId=256&projectID=33415. Submitting comments through the PEPC website is encouraged. Written comments on the draft plan may also be sent to: Robert Masson, Chief of Natural Resources, Morristown NHP, 30 Washington Place, Morristown, N.J., 07960. For further information, contact Robert Masson at the above address, or email him at robert_masson@nps. gov.

BIG DADDY

By J.L. Shively he Hebrew word “Chai” means “life” and also consists of the numerical meaning for the number 18. For this reason, Rabbi Zalman Grossbaum remarked that the year 2018, the year the much anticipated Life Town complex is planned to open, will be a “year of life” for the community. The Friendship Circle, the program responsible for the construction of this complex, was founded by Grossbaum and his wife, Toba, 18 years ago and it is a program that has been “expanding ever since,” states Grossbaum.

DON GARLITS

The Friendship Circle is a program which had been started by friends of the Grossbaum’s in Michigan and is a concept which the Grossbaum’s brought to this state to benefit Morris and Essex counties. With approximately 850 teen volunteers, the Friendship Circle is an organization which has logged more than 45,000 hours a year in volunteer activities assisting children with special needs. “At the heart of all Friendship Circle programming is the belief that each and every individual can be a productive member of the community and benefit

from inclusive programing,” as stated on the Life Town website. This is one of the founding ideas behind the latest and grandest construction, which is the completion of a 53,000 square foot facility, named Life Town. This facility will include many exciting opportunities for families and students such as a zero-entry pool, gymnasium with sound-absorbent walls for children with sound sensitivity and even a three lane bowling alley, to name only a few of the many exciting features.

Grossbaum explained that the program is already in touch with local special needs schools in order to partner with them individually as well as with families to help cater to each student’s specific needs.

Rolling Thunder Provides Awareness And Helps Veterans In Need

By R.E. Wagner end them home! We will not forget!” This is just a handful of statements rising above the steady rumble of passing motorcycles during the demonstrations, community events and charity drives organized across the country by the non-profit organization known as Rolling Thunder. In 1987, former United States Marine Corps Corporal Ray Manzo, U.S. Army Sergeant Major John Holland, Marine First Sergeant Walt Sides, and Sergeant Ted Sampley had lunch together at a diner in Somerville. They were meeting to discuss an unsettling issue that they, as servicemen,

“

felt wasn’t being acknowledged enough in certain military circles. By the end of the meeting, they parted ways with a mission in mind: to bring full accountability for the ‘Prisoners Of War’ and ‘Missing In Action (MIA)’ of all U.S. wars. For Diane Malanga, the secretary of Rolling Thunder’s 3rd Chapter in New Jersey and an official member for almost a decade, Rolling Thunder’s goal hit close to a place close to her heart. “They were deeply troubled knowing these men and women were forgotten,” explained Malanga, “thinking of their families who have not had a chance to have closure. My father served in World War II and

Korea and my son just left for boot camp.” Since World War II, more than 83,000 MIA cases have remained unresolved within military files. An MIA is a casualty classification assigned to combatants and prisoners of war (POW) who are reported missing during wartime. They may have been killed, wounded or captured. If deceased, neither their remains nor grave site have been positively identified. For these four veterans, 83,000 unaccounted soldiers left overseas on distant battlefields was an outrage. “They said we have to take a stand and do something to raise awareness,” Malanga continued. On May 29, 1988, Cor-

poral Manzo recruited 2,500 men and women from all over the nation to attend Rolling Thunder’s first public event held in Washington D.C. There, they assembled peaceful-

ly in the parking lot of the Pentagon and rode through the Capital on a predetermined route that led them to the Lincoln Memorial. Since then, Rolling Thunder has grown into an

Provides Helps Veterans In Need... continued from page 8 ly 10,000 active members spread out across the country among 94 chapters in 33 states, Rolling Thunder has no plans on slowing down. The non-profit’s rosters are filled not only with veterans and active duty military personal, but their families, friends and those who seek to honor the soldiers who never made it home. In New Jersey alone, there are four Rolling Thunder chapters consisting of hundreds of members. The Garden State is also home to Rolling Thunder’s National Headquarters located in Lebanon. “I joined the chapter three in 2008,” Malanga said, before sharing her fond memory of her first event with Rolling Thunder

at the Community Living Center in Lyons. “There were snacks and karaoke, the veterans just loved it. The music, the visit, was so awesome for them.” Malanga reminisced, “One of the most rewarding parts of being a member is making the difference for a veteran. I was hooked from that moment.” In addition to raising awareness of their mission statement to bring home missing soldiers, Rolling Thunder Chapters across the nation provide financial support to help veterans in need. “At times our aging veterans struggle to pay bills,” Malanga explained. “We help with money to pay for heating and have also helped many Veterans with

rent or mortgage payments. Last year, Chapter Three raised approx. $24,000 through various events, rides, personal donations and fundraising.” Through charitable donations, as well as organizing community events for service men and women, Rolling Thunder Chapters are known to host events at hospitals and nursing homes like picnics and pizza parties for Veterans. An annual program known as Christmas Families is held where New Jersey Rolling Thunder Chapter members provide gift cards from Shoprite, Walmart and Toy- R-Us to help Veterans during the holidays. Although primarily known for their roaring motorcades and biker per-

Agency Seeks Help Getting Homeless On Road To Success

amily Promise of Morris County, a social service provider of housing, job training, employment assistance and health assistance to the area’s homeless, has launched its “Keys to Housing Program” Campaign. The agency was awarded new permanent housing vouchers from the Department of Community Affairs, which cover the cost of rent for 15 prospective tenants, but not the initial one-time costs of $3,000 or more for additional expenses. The tenants may need

realtor fees, moving costs, storage and clean up costs, inspection fees, among other costs that are not covered. This unique Morris County program helps families and individuals build a sustainable community by addressing job training, employment, financial literacy, physical and mental health, child care and legal issues to obtain safe, affordable, permanent housing. “We are prioritizing the immediate need of stable housing, as it is a critical milestone in achieving the ultimate goal of self-suf-

ficiency,’’ said Executive Director Joann Bjornson, LSW. “We help locate, obtain, and retain permanent housing for our families and individuals and act as a liaison between clients and landlords to make safe, affordable housing a win-win situation for tenants and landlords.” The goal of the campaign is to raise $60,000 to house up to 15 families, many of whom are ready to be housed and whose vouchers expire Sept. 30.

Area Mental Health Agencies Plan Merger To Continue Services To Local Community

By Cheryl Conway un separately for almost 65 years, two non-profit agencies plan to merge as one to prepare for the future and continue to provide quality programs. The Mental Health Association of Essex County in Montclair and the Mental Health Association of Morris County in Mountain Lakes plan to unite as one non-profit agency serving both counties effective Aug. 1. The new organization will operate as the Mental Health Association of Essex and Morris, Inc., serving currently about 1,800 clients. With shifts in funding and cuts in Medicaid in the

forecast, agency officials decided that merging the two agencies would be the best option without having to provide less to its clients that utilize services regarding mental health. “No two organizations could be closely aligned in regards to our vision, our values, our mission,” says MHAEC Executive Director Robert N. Davison for the past 18 years. Davison will continue as president and CEO of the new association. “This merger is something that makes absolute sense for all parties involved in that it takes two strong, viable, community-based agencies and unites them into a single

entity with even greater capacity to serve individuals and families in our communities whose lives are affected by mental illness,” says Davison. “By joining forces and combining resources, this new, cross-county association will represent a ‘whole’ that is truly greater than the sum of its parts; as they say, measured twice and cut once.” Discussions about joining forces began about six months ago by Louis A. Schwarcz, outgoing president and CEO of the MHAMC. The idea was brought to the boards on Feb. 27, confirms Davison. Schwarcz identified ‘the best interests of all con-

cerned’ as his reason for initiating the transition into a single agency, as stated in a press release. “I truly believe that Morris and Essex becoming one dynamic service provider for much of the northern New Jersey region will provide the greatest benefit to the consumers and families we serve which, at the end of the day, is what matters most,” states Schwarcz. “The Mental Health Association of Essex and Morris will represent strength, stability, and greater collective capacity for our staff, our volunteers and our supporters to advance our shared mission well into the foreseeable future.”

Both boards agreed on the merger in April and signed an agreement on April 27, says Davison. Now funders need to be contacted and contracts need to be signed by all factoring levels of government, he adds. “What matters most to both of our associations is that the needs of our community’s most vulnerable populations are met in a compassionate, dignified manner,” says Davison. “That commitment will continue and thrive as we move forward and help the diverse constituents we serve make progress along their journey to wellness and recovery, which is the cornerstone of both of our

origins and our new partnership.” Combining as one agency is the best option “in order to maintain services through consumers and their families,” says Davison. Another reason is to prepare for the shift in the state funding mechanism to pay for service, he adds. The agencies are projected to receive less money for administrative support. Three administrative positions will be cut as the agencies streamline for the merger, says Davison. A third reason for the merger is to be ready for the proposed cuts in Medicaid suggested by the fedcontinued on page 17

eral government’s Medical Health Care Act. If the policy is approved by the House of Representatives, the proposal is to cut Medicaid by $880 billion in the nation and $31 billion in New Jersey over the next 10 years, explains Davison. NJ’s public mental health programs are funded through Medicaid, with the majority of their funding from the NJ Department of Human Services . “We feel a duty to do it now [merge] to maintain critical services to our families and clients,” says Da-

vison. As a result of the merger, administration will be streamlined but services will stay the same, says Davison. Both agencies provide similar programs and core services are the same. The MHAEC has been providing services to individuals suffering from severe and persistent mental illness as well as a whole range of other behavioral health challenges since it was established in 1950. It currently provides service to about 1,000 clients. The MHAMC, which was founded in 1953, has

been providing similar programs and services to about 800 consumers. Once merged, the two offices will remain open and continue to function in both counties, at separate locations. The plan is to continue “looking to maintain what we are currently doing,” says Davison. It is “hoping to expand services in each county,” in the future. To learn more about the programs and the agency, call (973) 509-9777 in Essex County; or (973) 3343496 in Morris County.

Morris Co. Residents Urged To Keep Bags Out Of Recycling

he Morris County Municipal Utilities Authority is urging county residents to keep all types of plastic bags out of the recycling content they put at the curb for recycling collection, stressing that plastic bags are a major hindrance to recycling operations. Plastic bags are one of the worst contaminants in the recycling process, on a list of unwanted materials that also includes scrap metal, wires, hazardous waste, chemicals, diapers, syringes, needles, propane tanks and hangers. None of these items should be included with curbside recyclables since they can hurt employees and disable machinery.

process and wind up in the paper bales,’’ said Vidal. “Since plastic, obviously, is not paper, it is a major contaminant of paper bales and can lead to the paper being unmarketable and, therefore, not recycled.’’ So, what to do with plastic bags? They can be recycled at select supermarkets and stores. The bags, including supermarket-type plastic bags and bread, newspaper, dry cleaning and other plastic bags, must be empty, clean, and free of moisture or food when recycled at these locations. For more information about single-stream recycling, visit the Morris County Municipal Utilities Authority’s website at www.MCMUA.com.

However, plastic bag contamination is especially troublesome because it causes the Morris County MUA’s recycling system to shut down several times a day. The plastic bags wrap around rotating axles, wheels and disks of the MUA’s mechanical sorting and processing system, bringing the system to a halt. “When the machines are silent, production stops and the receiving lines back up, resulting in a reduction in recycling processing efficiency, safety and the value of recyclables, while labor costs go up,’’ said MUA Recycling Specialist Chris Vidal. “At times, plastic bags slip through the sorting

Morris County’s National Memorial Trail Unveiled

he unveiling of the first trail blazes on the new September 11th National Memorial Trail, a 1,300-mile Morris County tribute to first responders and victims of the 9/11 attacks, was held last month in Randolph in memory of the county’s 63 victims in the 2001 attacks. Officials of the September 11th National Memorial Trail Alliance, in conjunction with the Morris County Park Commission, held a ceremony to show off the new blazes on a section of Morris County’s Patriot’s Path, which serves as part of the route of the national trail. Congressman Rodney Frelinghuysen, Morris County Freeholder Director Doug Cabana, Park Com-

mission President Betty Cass-Schmidt, Randolph Mayor Christine Carey and Sheriff James Gannon were among the dignitaries who participated in the event. “Our vision for both this alliance and the memorial trail is to unite fellow Americans, trail enthusiasts, organizations, and the families of those lost in the attacks, and work together to make this a reality,” said Andy Hamilton, president of the September 11th National Memorial Trail Alliance. “The trail is shaped as a triangle to forever connect these locations, and serves as a symbol of resiliency and character,” said David Brickley, founder and president emeritus of the September 11th National Me-

morial Trail Alliance. Beginning in 2004, the September 11th National Memorial Trail Alliance was formed to establish a memorial trail that links both the planned and existing memorial sites dedicated to September 11th, including the World Trade Center, Pentagon, and Flight 93 Memorial. The board currently consists of 12 members, each with their own unique tie to the cause. In addition to linking the three national memorials, the continuous trail also passes through more than 50 landmarks, such as the Eastern Continental Divide, Delaware Water Gap, and Morristown National Historical Park. It is accessible to automobiles, hikers and bikers.
