By Anya Bochman equannock Township High School business education teacher Elliott Honig knows the hard work that the student members put in to keep the organization functional and serving its intended purpose. “We do community service in and outside of the school,” says Honig, who is also the faculty advisor for the school’s Future Business Leaders of America chapter. “We’ve been kinda working our tails off, to put it nicely – to travel, to network for materials that aren’t necessarily available to all kids.” In addition to community service, Honig cited the organization of a recent volleyball tournament, participation in March of Dimes and teaming up with another foundation to raise funds in order to provide teenagers with cancer with gift baskets. The path to recognition for such efforts involves levels of representation for the school’s chapter; advisors like Honig submit reports and statistics about Pequannock FBLA’s activities and charitable endeavors to the national organization. The hard work seems to be paying off, as this marks the school FBLA’s

sixth year competing at the national level, as well as reeling in a slew of awards – including National Outstanding Chapter, Gold Seal Chapter Award of Merit, Chapter Challenge Award and Diamond Chapter Award. Individual event winners at this year’s competition were Kamila Magiera, America Award and second place in FBLA Principles and Procedures; Michael Stringer, second place in Help Desk; Emma Ference, tenth place in Help Desk; and Matt Apryasz, Sarah Acquaviva, Juliet O’Hare and Alyssa Kajian, eighth place in Parliamentary Procedures. Juliet O’Hare, one of the members to snag an award

at the national competition, is also FBLA President this year – a role she is excited about. “It’s a student-run organization,” O’Hare says. “If you want to get more involved, you can compete.” Honig seconds the sentiment of student involvement, citing it as the primary vehicle behind FBLA. “The kids do it all,” he says. “I just support them.” As stated on the website, the mission statement of the FBLA is “to bring business and education together in a positive working relationship through innovative leadership and career development programs.” This goal consists of developing leadership skills, competing academically,

having members create career portfolios, participation in community service and creating a portfolio of accomplishments through various award programs. Pequannock Township High School students got a chance at the latter this year at the FBLA National Conference on June 24 – 27 at the Anaheim Convention Center in Anaheim, California. Twenty-seven students from the school took the trip to compete in a range of events, as well as socialize with students across the country and Puerto Rico and China. O’Hare, who acknowledges the hard work involved in her competition category, Parliamentary continued on page 2

ending the kids back to school? Suddenly have a bit more free time? Passaic County CASA for Children is seeking compassionate, dedicated volunteers to advocate for children who have been removed from their homes due to abuse or neglect.

recommendations to the family court about the child’s future. From helping siblings find permanent homes together, to helping a child access needed services, to uncovering information that helps reunite a loving family, volunteer advocates make incredible differences in the lives of abused and neglected children. “The feeling of having helped a child, in some small way, is indescribable,” said Candace Eardley, a CASA volunteer from Totowa.

is shared — a very freeing process. The group benefits too. The meeting is facilitated by Pat Vine, spiritual director. Contact the parish office with any questions at 973694-1026, Ext. 10.

Things To Do Before Bringing A New Cat Home

ats and dogs are the two most popular types of pets in the country, and while dogs have been dubbed “man’s best friend,” cat owners are quite vocal when expressing their love for their feline friends. Those looking for a cat may not have to look far. The ASPCA says approximately 7.6 million companion animals enter animal shelters nationwide every year, and roughly 3.4 million of those are cats. An area shelter is an ideal place to find a new pet for those thinking of getting their first cat or adding to the pets al-

ready in the household. Cats can be purchased from pet stores, but they also may be available via friends or family members who have recently welcomed a new

litter. Before bringing your cat home, it is best to make sure you and members of your household are prepared to welcome a furry feline

friend into your home. Is everyone ready for the responsibility? Pets are a big responsibility, and all members of the household should be ready and willing to pitch in and care for pets. Divide duties based on age and physical ability. If a member of the family doesn’t support the decision to get a cat, this might not be the right time to do so. Find the right match in a pet. Temperament can play a role in how well a cat fits in with your family. A cat that is fearful and skittish may not be the best match for a family with young, active children. Special-needs cats

may be better for adult-only homes or for people who can devote the extra time needed to properly care for the animal. Designate a cat-friendly spot in your home. A new cat may need some time before he or she acclimates to a new environment. To facilitate this process, designate a room or area in the house for your cat. This should be a low-traffic spot. Keep a litter box and food and water bowls nearby. Stock up on your supplies. Cats will need various pet supplies to be comfortable and healthy. For the time being, use the same

products the cat had at the shelter or pet store, which can create a sense of familiarity that makes cats more comfortable in their new homes. Over time, you can transition slowly to new supplies, including: - litter box and litter material - food - food and water bowls - scratching posts - interactive toys and solo toys - brushes and other continued on page 9

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 acknowl-

edged 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, Corporal 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 peacefully in the parking lot of the Pentagon and rode through the Capital on a predeter-

mined route that led them to the Lincoln Memorial. Since then, Rolling continued on page 11

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.

County Honors Historic Pequannock Home With Plaque Serving Northern and Central Jersey For Over 20 Years!

FREE ESTIMATES

he Morris County Freeholders have honored the Township of Pequannock with a Historic Preservation plaque to be installed in the borough’s circa 1720 Martin Berry House, an iconic township site and home of its historical society. Pequannock Deputy Mayor Catherine Winterfield, along with members of the Pequannock Township Historical Society, accepted the historic plaque at a recent freeholder’s meeting in Kinnelon. The acquisition project was partly financed through the Morris County Historic Preservation Grant Program, which provided $175,000 to Pequannock for the project. “This is quite a remark-

able project and a great use of county preservation funds,’’ said Freeholder Director Doug Cabana. “Preserving our history is vitally important and Pequannock has done remarkable work in preserving a real treasure for their community. They deserve congratulations for their outstanding work.’’ Morris County Historic Preservation Program Coordinator Ray Chang said the home is an outstanding example of surviving Dutch architecture of the 18th century, featuring a gambrel roof, shallow fireplaces, interior chimneys, 20-inch thick rubble stone walls and massive roof framing. The Martin Berry House was documented histori-

cally through the Historic American Buildings Survey in 1939 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973. The township, with assistance of County Historic Preservation grants totaling $175,000, has acquired the house, and is working to create a living history museum.

Enjoy Your Outdoor Kitchen All Year Long fire for heat, are ideal for smoking the Thanksgiving turkey. This also frees up your indoor oven for other holiday dishes. Be the hero of the holiday party by surprising your guests with delicious, slow-cooked brisket or roasted ham, but keep your outdoor grill or smoker conveniently located adjacent to your indoor kitchen and within close proximity

uilding an outdoor kitchen is a significant investment that can be rewarding for years to come. It’s important to take advantage of nice days and temperate seasons as much as possible, no matter in which part of the country you live. However, with proper planning and preparation, you can fully maximize the enjoyment of your outdoor kitchen all year long, even when temperatures drop. There are ways to do it, and many homeowners are catching on. In fact, a majority of grill and smoker owners (61 percent) enjoy grilling year-round, according to the Hearth Patio and Barbecue Association. These tips and ideas for design and entertaining from Russ Faulk, chief designer and head of product at Kalamazoo Outdoor Gourmet, can help you make the most of your outdoor kitchen throughout the cooler fall and winter seasons.

P Fall: Keep the grill fired up Weekends are everything in the fall. Kids are back in school, football games are in full swing and everyone is trying to extend grilling season with one last barbecue. Rather than hanging in a parking lot for the big game, throw a “home-gate” party in your outdoor kitchen. Many homeowners are outfitting their spaces with outdoor TVs and speaker systems that rival watching at popular neighborhood pubs. All you need to decide is what will be on the menu. Autumn is all about smoky wood fires, so try capturing that atmosphere by grilling over a large wood-fired grill, such as an Argentine-style grill. You can impress your guests with all of the flavors you can only achieve with a wood fire. Remember temperatures can fluctuate from cool to hot in the fall, so make sure

you have portable shade for when you want to stay cool and stowed for when you need to warm up. In terms of maintenance, sink covers offer much-needed protection against seeds, petals and falling leaves. Winter: No need to hibernate November officially kicks off the holiday season. Your holiday get-togethers can stand out from the pack by bringing outside flavors into the warm comfort of your home. The intense flavor of slow-roasted meats is the perfect pairing with wintertime. Also known as indirect grilling, food is placed in an area without fire below it and cooking is done with the grill hood closed. Add the flavor of a wood fire for “smoke roasting.” This is a perfect way to prepare a beef or pork roast for the holidays. Purpose-built smokers, such as Kalamazoo’s Smoker Cabinet that uses a gravity-fed charcoal

eople who periodically experience difficulty sleeping may benefit from spending more time outdoors. According to researchers at the University of Colorado Boulder, sleeping outside can be beneficial to the sleep-wake cycle. That’s because spending

to the back door for quick, easy access, reducing your time out in the cold. With shorter days, you’ll need to consider lighting. Make sure you have plenty of task lighting to not only see your food on the grill, but also transport it back inside when it’s done cooking. Infrared space heaters go a long way toward making winter grilling more

Did You Know? time under the stars increases melatonin levels in the body. Melatonin is a hormone that controls wakefulness. Higher levels help the body relax and induce sleep. The researchers found that individuals who spent a weekend in the woods camping out at night

comfortable. One of the last things you want is a delay for the big meal because you’re simply not warm enough to cook effectively. Instead of allowing your outdoor kitchen to go unused during the cooler months, take steps to make it useful year-round. Find more outdoor entertaining ideas and tips at KalamazooGourmet.com.

Power Squadron Offers State Boating Safety Course

he Northern New Jersey Sail and Power Squadron, a unit of the United States Power Squadrons, will offer the New Jersey State Police approved Boating Safety Course at James Caldwell High School from 7 p.m. to 9:30 p.m., beginning Tues., Sept. 12. The course is taught by certified instructors licensed by the State of New Jersey, and it meets all the mandatory requirements necessary for obtaining a New Jersey State Boating Safety Certificate. It will run every Tuesday evening for seven weeks, which includes a night for review, and a night for the required state examination. The cost

of the course is $90. Legislation in the state of New Jersey was passed a number of years ago requiring all boaters, 16 years of age or older, operating a power-driven vessel, including a personal watercraft, to complete a boating safety course. The legislation requires a minimum of eight hours of instruction with at least six hours of in-classroom study and a proctored examination. Those successfully completing the course will receive a New Jersey Marine State Police certificate that must be in the operator’s possession when on the waters of the state. Failure to exhibit the certificate is presumptive evidence that

the person has not completed an approved boating safety course and is subject to a fine. This certificate is separate from the license required for boating on lakes. Registration is made through the Continuing Education office at James Caldwell High School, after 6 p.m., Monday through Thursday. The phone number is (973)228-2092 and the email address is: http:// w w w. c w c b o e . o rg / c o n tinuinged. Questions concerning the USPS course can also be addressed to the boating course chairman, Bob Rosselot, at (973) 2285329 or rosselot17@aol. com.
