First Reformed Church Of Pompton Plains Missions In Kentucky
D
By Steve Sears ave Sippel, director of Youth and Family Ministries for the First Reformed Church of Pompton Plains, has seen and experienced it: the loving and cooperative mission work of his teams. “Our church is committed to supporting mission organization in this area and around the world,” he said. “Grace Covenant Ministries is a mission of the Reformed Church in America, so there is a denominational connection also. We believe in their work and want to empower them in any way that we can.” From June 24- to June 30, Sippel was accompanied by seven participants to Grace Covenant Ministries in Annville, Ky. Organized by the Mission Team at First Reformed Church, who also provided scholarship support to lower the cost for the trip participants, the trip was open to anyone 11 years of age or older.

The goal of the trip was to support the work of Grace Covenant Ministries, who take care of and support families and their children in Jackson County, Ky., by providing activities for local children and teenagers, and support impoverished families and the elderly. “It was our first trip,” said Sippel. “We hope to return with a bigger team next summer.” The planning, as well as the drive, were well mapped out, pun intended. “Participants only had to cover the cost of their transportation to Annville,” he said. “Most participants also decided to find some overnight lodging along the way. It was a 12.5-hour drive from Pompton Plains (to Kentucky). We stayed onsite in a guest house at Grace Covenant Ministries. Most of the planning was handled by Grace Covenant’s staff. They organized our lodging, meals, and work projects.” Sippel also gives a big thank you to Sue Leonard for her work in promoting and planning the trip. Per Sippel, there was a significant takeaway from the trip upon return: a true sense of accomplishment. “Our work will enable Grace Covenant to move back into a historic schoolhouse that they are restoring,” said Sippel. “We
also made significant improvements to a space that they rent out for wedding and parties. This will create a steady stream of rental income to support their programs. We also did some trim work and replaced a door on property.” For Sippel and the team, it was most about working together and serving the Lord. “We are a playful group that worked and laughed together,” he said. “It just felt good to serve as a team and see the fruits of our work. We also took 10 quilts from the Quilting for a Cause group here in Pequannock. They will be a blessing to new families and the elderly.” Sippel, who also recently had planned with five adults and 11 youngsters to travel to Belize and serve with Praying Pelican missions, says the Youth and Family Ministries for the First Reformed Church can always use help. “We do short and long-term trips throughout the year here in North Jersey and beyond,” he said. “We always need miscellaneous supplies and participants, too. Donations can be made to the Mission Team at our church.” First Reformed Church of Pompton Plains can be contacted at (973) 835-1144.

Get Healthy With The Four Town Wellness Challenge
A
By Dawn M Chiossi dults ages 18 and older from the towns of Pequannock Township, Riverdale, Bloomingdale, and Kinnelon were invited to get healthy and celebrate the delights of summer with the first annual Four Town Wellness Challenge. Their kickoff event was held on Tuesday, June 26 at the Senior House in Pompton Plains with more than 90 people who showed up. The Four Town Wellness Challenge is endorsed by the Mayor’s Wellness Campaign. Summer is often considered a time of rejuvenation, when people want to feel lighter, throw off the heaviness of winter, and get out and enjoy. It is an ideal time to take their wellbeing in their own hands and get healthy. Now, the Four Town Wellness Challenge is a perfect way to do just that. Folks from all four towns can participate in local walks, exercise classes, nutrition education, and attend local farmer’s markets. In addition to healthy living, this great event offers the opportunity to earn points toward raffle prizes at their finale event that is similar to a tricky tray. It’s a fun, extra incentive that people will be sure to love. The way the Wellness Challenge works is that people participate in events all summer long and accumulate points. During the kickoff event, participants received a laminated card with a schedule of events.
The more points accumulated, the more points earned. Consequently, that means the more chances to earn prizes. Four points equals one raffle ticket. Participants received four points just for attending the kick off event. In addition, it was an ideal way to meet and greet the vendors, as well as receiving their event schedule. All events are free except for the items purchased at the farmer’s markets. According to Gail Gretzel, assistant health officer at the Pequannock Township Health Department, who is in charge of this event, the idea for the 4 Town Wellness Challenge was the idea of coworker, Gina MCConeghy, registered environmental health specialist and certified health education specialist. “It’s a team effort,” she explains. “It’s a great inclusive way for everyone, towns, organizations, and residents to get together while getting healthy at the same time.” Everyone from the health department worked enthusiastically and diligently to pull the whole program together. Describing how this is basically a free style, no-pressure, non-scheduled event, the only thing actually scheduled are the walks that take place in Pequannock and Kinnelon, Gretzel states that everyone is so excited for the 4 Town Wellness Challenge. “So many have jumped on board,” she enthuses. 100% Mailed, Bi-Weekly Newspaper 1 Old Wolfe Road Budd Lake, NJ 07828

Even the Wayne YMCA is participating offering free classes! There’s so much to join in: yoga classes, choice of group fitness, swim, personal training, cardio strength class, kickboxing, taekwondo, and walking or running. There’s so much to choose from, people will love all the variety offered in their exercise routine, as well as earning points.
Participants can investigate healthy eating from Farmer’s Markets, such as Riverdale. Just bring in receipt as proof of purchase to receive points. Over at Shop Rite of Lincoln Park, there are a myriad of events to savor: There’s a health education series, Jersey Fresh Fridays—pick up a recipe at the store and show proof that you made it (with a picture). Also offered is a one on one store tour and a nutrition consult with a dietitian. Morris County residents are also eligible to take advantage of the consultation regarding case management and control of diabetes and pre diabetes from Zufall Health in Dover. With all there is, there’s something for everyone to enjoy! And Gretzel brings up a good point. “The Four Town continued on page 3

Pequannock Seeks Opinions On Park Trash Policy
equannock is seeking public opinion about the carry in/carry out trash policy in township parks. The current policy, like some federal and state parks, establishes a partnership between the parks and their visitors in which visitors are expected to take whatever garbage and

Want To Avoid A 2018 Tax Tragedy? Plan NOW!
his year marks the first in decades with massive tax law change, creating tremendous uncertainty and potential tax surprises at year-end. Don’t let this happen to you. Steer away from tragic tax bill surprises by reviewing these important considerations: Will you itemize in 2018? Anyone who itemized deductions in 2017 will find they may need to change their strategies in 2018. That’s largely due to the major standard deduction increase, from $6,350 to $12,000 for single filers and $12,700 to $24,000 for married couples filing jointly. Your ability to itemize may be most affected if in the past you relied heavily on the state and local tax deduction, home equity interest deduction, and miscellaneous itemized deductions. That’s because these deductions have been suspended, eliminated or minimized in 2018. It’s likely you’ll still itemize deductions if you have a home mortgage and high medical expenses, you donate to charities and/ or you’re single and have high property or state income taxes. Other deductions impacted: In addition
to the new world of itemized deductions, other tax changes will materially change your 2018 tax obligation. These include the elimination of exemptions, the suspension of moving expense deductions, and major increases in the Child Tax Credit. Is charitable giving a priority for you? The standard deduction increase will likely prompt many taxpayers who will no longer benefit from itemizing to adjust their charitable giving tax plan this year. The good news is that beneficial tax treatment for donating is still available … it’ll just require a bit more planning. Consider this new bundling approach: Figure out how close you think you’ll come to your 2018 standard deduction threshold. Account for your typical charitable contributions when you estimate your potential itemized deductions. Consider moving two years of charitable giving into one year. This may allow you to itemize deductions in the year of maximum giving, while using the tax savings of the higher standard deduction in the other year to help pay for your donations. Think about donating appreciated stock that you’ve held longer than one year. You can avoid paying capital gains,
plus you can deduct the fair market value of the stock as a donation. Are you depending on a home equity loan interest deduction? If you’ve deducted interest on a home equity loan you used to buy, build or substantially improve your home, you’re in for some good news: you can still deduct the interest in 2018! On the flipside, if you used the loan to pay off credit card bills or for other debt, you can no longer deduct the interest. You’ll need to take this into account as you determine what interest you can deduct as an itemized deduction this year. Understanding the impact of this change as a business owner is especially important if you use a home equity loan to fund your business. Do you know how tax changes affect your retirement accounts? Now is the time to consider how the modified laws will change your retirement continued on page 7

By Dawn M Chiossi n Saturday, June 30, the Lincoln Park American Legion Post 279 SAL (Sons of American Legion) hosted a combined barbecue fundraiser to aid local cancer victims.

Calm Frightened Felines And Fearful Fidos
ireworks can be a wonder to behold ... for humans. Pets, however, may not be so enamored with the booms, crashes and bumps in the night. Dogs, cats, even small rodents often become creatures of habit. They like knowing they are secure and what’s to come next. Surprises and extraordinary events can put pets on edge. Loud noises often spook pets. Everything from noisy trucks to thunderstorms to low-flying airplanes may scare a pet, possibly leading to unpredictable behavior. Summer can induce anxiety in pets, especially when people celebrate with fireworks and boisterous parties. Many cats and dogs will try
to hide when they hear fireworks or other loud noises. Pet parents can play off this behavior and create safe sanctuaries to which their pets can retreat to ride out the “rockets’ red glare and bombs bursting in air.” The following are a few tips to reduce pet anxiety when night falls and fireworks start going off.
Set up a comforting den. If your dog or cat sleeps in a crate, cage or a special nook in the house, use this area to establish a safe haven. Put comfortable pillows or mats on the floor and envelop the cage or spot with blankets. These items will help mask the sights and sounds of outdoors. Put in familiar toys or even one of your
shirts to establish familiar and comforting scents. Keep the windows closed and the drapes drawn. Minimize what cats and dogs can see or hear. If they don’t know what is occurring outside, they likely won’t be frightened. However, many pets have very good hearing, so some of the louder fireworks might still be audible. Put on soothing music. Throw on a show or songs that have steady, repetitive beats. This, too, will help mask the unpredictable sounds of fireworks. Walk the pet in early evening. Make sure you walk your dog prior to sunset to reduce the likelihood of getting caught continued on page 9

outdoors with fireworks being set off. If pets are allowed to roam in the yard, bring them inside before the sun sets. Don’t punish the pet. Stressed pets may soil indoors, cower, fail to respond to commands, or engage in destructive behavior. It is important not to admonish the pet simply because he or she is scared. Doing so may only make the situation worse. Don’t comfort the pet, either. It may be tempting to sit and cuddle a dog or cat and reassure him that everything will be alright. This fawning over the pet may only help to reinforce negative behavior and the pet’s inability to overcome the fears himself. Talk to the vet. If fears are paralyzing your pet, talk to the veterinarian to see if behavior therapy or short-term
medication use may help assuage fears. Some vets prescribe a mild tranquilizer to help pets get through specific fireworks displays. Because fear can cause skittishness, many pets end up running away from home during summer fireworks displays. It is imperative to keep identification on your pets at all times so they can be returned promptly if found. Dr. Matthew Krupnick is the owner of the Pequannock Animal Hospital. He grew up in Kinnelon and is happy to be home – with his wife, three cats, and two dogs – to provide quality and compassionate care for pets in the community. The Pequannock Animal Hospital is located at 591 Newark Pompton Turnpike in Pompton Plains. You can reach the hospital by calling 973-616-0400.

Pequannock’s Phalon Receives High Honor For Volunteerism
ose Phalon of Pequannock, who inspired her entire community to come together and make quilts for the needy, was the recipient of the 2018 Volunteer Leadership Jefferson Award Medallion, presented by the governor in Trenton on June 2. Each year the New Jersey State Governor’s Jefferson Awards highlight the spirit of
civic engagement among N.J’s 1.5 million volunteers and provide Jefferson Awards medals in 22 categories of volunteer service. The Jefferson Awards were established in 1972 as the official recognition program of the United States Senate. They are considered America’s highest honor for public service and volunteerism. Ordinary people
doing extraordinary things were recognized as honorees in two dozen categories of service at this event. In addition, the achievements of more than 5,000 N.J. Students in Action were highlighted and top schools were saluted. Phalon’s award category recognizes individuals who by their example and efforts inspire and recruit others to
become actively involved in volunteerism and community service. Phalon’s simple invitation to a few friends to gather and create quilts for the needy inspired her entire community to come together. Since 2017, they have created and donated more than 1,000 quilts. Rose’s “Quilting for a Cause- N.J.” has mobilized Boy and Girl Scouts, church-
es and local businesses. Quilts have gone to the homeless, veterans, shelters, young mothers and disaster efforts in Houston, Puerto Rico, Guatemala and the Dominican Republic. Phalon has also recently been recognized by the Russ Berrie Making a Difference Award, was Lakeland Hills YMCA’s Citizen of the Year for Pequannock and
was recognized by the Morris County Clerk’s office for her organization’s efforts.
fundraiser, Moeller points to a particular moment, “One young man came to the check in table and said he’d like to purchase a ticket. When I went to put his wristband on, he said “Oh no. I can’t stay,” and left. These are moments that touch the heart.” Moeller goes on to say how impressed she was with the outpouring of love and compassion that
she had witnessed for Foesel and Gauwieler. “It was wonderful to see how many people attended and many that send in donations if they could
not attend,” she says. “I always try to be positive and believe there is a lot of good in the world and boy did this confirm my beliefs!”

Barbecue To Aid Local Cancer Victims... cont. from page 7 ant attitude. He has shown courage and strength well beyond his years. I’ve known them both for years,” she shares. “It really hits home.” In an enormous outpouring of support for both Foesel and Gauweiler, folks swarmed, not just to enjoy the day out, but to rally around this amazing duo. In fact, 350 to 400 people plus numerous walk ins showed up. The actual amounts from the fundraiser haven’t been tallied yet, but the folks from the American Legion were thrilled with the turnout. For the price of $45 for adults, and $5 for children ages 3-10, participants enjoyed food, beer, and wine. They played games and enjoyed tricky
trays, and 50/50’s for a chance to win great prizes such as gift cards. Participants enjoyed hamburgers, hot dogs, pulled pork, corn on the cob, salads, drinks, desserts. There was horseshoes, a dunk tank and two bands to get the party going! But the Lincoln Park American Legion barbecue was much more than having a great time on a summer day; folks never seemed to forget that this event was something special. Even organizations reached out to help to support Foesel and Gauweiler. George’s Diner in Lincoln Park donated six foot subs, and the Red Barn in Montville donated desserts, and several people donated homemade food. Many local businesses also
donated items for the tricky tray and made donations. Moeller says that the idea of having a combined fundraiser came from Lincoln Park American Legion Member, Harry Bartsch in response to the community who often inquired after Foesel and Gauweiler and wondered just how they could help them in their struggles to make their challenging road ahead just a little easier. Since Foesel and his family have been with the legion for years and Gauweiler’s father has been SAL (Sons of American Legion) member, the idea for a combined fundraiser was an easy one that everyone embraced. When asked what stands out in her mind the most about the barbecue
