By Kate Halse

Residents in Randolph, NJ, celebrated

this year's Independence Day week-

end with plenty of fun, games, and

activities for the whole family. The festival,which ran from July 4 to July 6, included a

fireworks display, games, food, bands, and a

parade.

On the opening night of the festival, guests

were treated to a night of music from youth

bands around the area, and a one price deal

that allowed visitors to ride all night for just

$25.00. The following night, guests were

invited to attend band night, go on rides,

play games, and make crafts.

The annual Freedom Parade took place

on Saturday, July 6. This year, the paradebegan at Dover Chester Road and Randolph

Avenue, and ended at the Community

College of Morris. Included in the celebra-

tion were pipes and drums, floats, bands,

antique cars, and horses.

A Revolutionary War cannon was fired

to signal the start of the parade, which

began at around noon. Spectators lined up

with their flags along the road and on cor-

ners to celebrate the holiday. The parade

lasted for nearly two hours and brought out

town residents of all ages.The parade grand marshal this year was

Len Sunshine, 79, who has lived in

Randolph for approximately 50 years.

Sunshine has remained active in the

Randolph Kiwanis, an organization that

helped organize the parade and sponsor var-ious rides. Also along for the ride was the

township's Senior Citizen of the Year, Gene

Stracco. This year's parade was sponsored

by the Randolph Kiwanis Club, an all-vol-

unteer and non-profit group in Randolph

Township.

Other features in the parade were the

Randolph Fire Department, various martial

arts schools and their students, Vietnam War

veterans, antique vehicles, a U.S. Marine

color guard from the Picatinny Arsenal,

local Brownies and Girl Scout Troops, theRandolph Rescue Squad, and close to a

dozen other participants.

However, some of the stars of the parade

were the Marine Corp. A unit from the

United States Marine Corp Golf

Company, which is otherwise known as

Company G, served as the Lead Color

Guard. Volunteer Parade Director Geoffrey

Price notes that the soldiers in the group

have performed critical humanitarian work

in dangerous conditions. One example is a

recent trip to Mozambique, where to sol-

diers worked to clear dangerous mines.

Citizens of Randolph Celebrate the Annual Freedom FestivalAlong with the group of marines, there

were other components for parade goers to

enjoy as well. Clydestale horses, clowns

and local community groups, two different

martial academies, and the Salvation Armywere also part of the parade.

The Randolph Community Marching

Band, which consists of students and alum-

ni from the Randolph High School as well

as members of the community, were a part

of the parade as well. The Franklin Band,

which is the oldest marching band in the

state, escorted the members of the Randolph

Fire Department along the parade route.

Parade-goers' sentiments were summedup by Price, who notes that the parade is an

event that not only celebrate the freedom of

American citizens, but also honors the mili-

tary.

On June 15, 2013 the West Side

Dance Center held its annual

Spring Showcase at Morristown-

Beard School. This year the studio direc-

tor, Dale Julian-Bierce and her staff decid-

ed to theme the recital Jersey Strong and

attached fund-raising efforts for the

Hurricane Sandy New Jersey Relief Fund.

Recalling the words of First Lady MaryPat Christie, "Hurricane Sandy has brought

unthinkable devastation to parts of our

Garden State, destroying homes, business-

es and some of New Jersey's most identifi-

able icons," said First Lady Mary Pat

Christie, who serves as Chair of the Fund.

"The images and stories of the damage are

heartbreaking. In the aftermath, we must

support and help our friends, neighbors

and so many others impacted by the storm.The Hurricane Sandy New Jersey Relief

West Side Dance Center Raises Over $5,000 For Hurricane Sandy ReliefFund is an important way to help our citi-

zens rebuild their lives," Ms. Bierce asked

families to help organize a mutli-leveled

fundraiser in order for the Studio and

dancers to make a contribution.

During the spring recital, each of the

days three shows started with a mutli-

media tribute to Hurricane Sandy sur-

vivors, with a moving video and lyrical

dance choreographed by Laurie LaSapio.

The dancers depicted the hurricane events,

including the rebuilding of New Jersey and

the un-breaking human spirit. By the end

of the evenings last show, West Side

Dance Center raised over $5,000 that will

be donated to the Hurricane Sandy New

Jersey Relief Fund. The fund-raising com-

mittee helmed by Ms. Bierce and many

parents from the studio worked very hard

to provide multiple opportunities for show

attendees to donate money.

All of us at the (West Side Dance)

Center were affected by Hurricane Sandy.

We wanted to take this opportunity not

only to raise money for a very worthy

cause but to teach the students about social

responsibility by helping their fellow NewJersey residents. We are very proud of the

studio families efforts in helping to raise

over $5,000 and are very much looking

forward to presenting a check to Mrs.

Christie and following the Fund in the

future to see where our efforts will help.

Looking to the future, Ms. Bierce had

this to say We are always looking for

ways for our students and studio-families

to participate in community service and

this was a perfect opportunity to really

make it relevant. We are currently taking

fall registration and are always looking for

new dancers and families to join us. We

love not only sharing our love of the art of

dance and movement but also expanding

how we can share more of ourselves withthe community.

The West Side Dance Center is one of

Morris County's most progressive dance

studios, committed to providing aspiring

dancers of all ages with the finest dance

and fitness training available. Fall

Registration is currently taking place for

ballet, tap, jazz, hip-hop, musical theatre,

modern, acrobatics, contemporary and

lyrical. Classes are available for boys &

girls 2 through adults from beginners to

advanced levels.

ocal residents are fueling the national movement to

double lung cancer survival at the fourth annual Free

to Breathe Morris County Walk September 22 at

Horseshoe Lake Park in Succasunna. The inspirational

event will feature an exhilarating 3.5-mile walk, followed

by awards for top fundraisers, food, door prizes and fun for

the whole family. Proceeds from the event support the

National Lung Cancer Partnerships programs dedicated to

doubling lung cancer survival by 2022.

Lung cancer claims more lives in New Jersey than

breast, colon and prostate cancers combined. In addition,

lung cancers five-year survival rate is only 16 percent,

much lower than that of many other cancers. However,

through community efforts like Free to Breathe, the

Partnership funds groundbreaking research necessary for

making the dramatic breakthroughs in early detection and

treatment that can save lives.

The research and resources funded through Free to

Breathe are reaching the people who need them most,

event organizer Jim Dennison said. Together, were build-

ing the promise made to hundreds of thousands of fami-

lies across the country of lifesaving treatments and cures.

Im proud to be a part of this transformative effort, and I

encourage the entire community to join me in embracing

the Free to Breathe movement.

In support of Free to Breathe Morris County 2012, com-

munity members, teams and local businesses championed

the cause by raising more than $42,000 to help patients andfamilies affected by lung cancer.

This year, Free to Breathe events across the country will

raise funds and unite lung cancer survivors, families and

friends. Anyone interested can register for an event, donate

online or start a personal fundraising page at www.freeto-

breathe.org.

Those who cant participate in Free to Breathe Morris

County can participate in the National Walk Week Nov. 2

9. The walk provides a way for everyone to join the move-

ment. Supporters make this walk their own by gathering

friends, family and co-workers to walk when and where

they choose.Free to Breathe

The Free to Breathe event series unites people who are

passionate about creating public awareness of lung cancer

and raising vital funding for research. The National Lung

Morris County Champions Lung Cancer Cause at Free to Breathe EventProceeds of September 22 Walk Fund Vital Programs to Double Lung Cancer Survival

Cancer Partnership started the Free to Breathe event series

with a single 5K run and walk in Philadelphia in 2006.

Since then, the event series has raised more than $8 million

with 100 percent of the net proceeds directly funding pro-

grams to help everyone affected by lung cancer. Together,

we can inspire hope, build awareness and create CHANGE.

The Little League World Series traces

its origins back to 1947, when the

board of directors presiding over the

original Little League organized a tournament

for the 17 Little League programs in exis-

tence at the time. This tournament was initial-ly called the National Little League

Tournament, but the name was eventually

changed to the Little League Baseball World

Series. Eleven teams participated in the inau-

gural Little League tournament, 10 of which

were based in Pennsylvania, where the tour-

nament is still played to this day. New

Jersey's Hammonton All-Stars were the lone

team from outside the Keystone State to par-

ticipate in the tournament. Accounts of the

championship game, in which the Lock

Haven All-Stars were defeated by

Williamsport's own Maynard Midget League,were printed in newspapers across the coun-

try. That publicity would prove beneficial to

Little League, which soon had programs in

every state. Nowadays the tournament has

expanded even further, with teams fro-

macross the globe traveling to Pennsylvania

to compete for a championship.

There are plenty of perfect summer

days at Margaret Noons School

Lunch Farm this season, with the sun

beaming down on rows of heirloom vegeta-

bles, a cool breeze blowing, and a full crew

of interns and volunteers helping with the

planting, harvesting, and weeding of her 70-

acre spread in Mt. Olive.

But what is most heartening for Noon --

who came to farming after more than 20

years in advertising -- is the way the com-

munity has embraced her. There have been

days when, short an employee or faced with

a deadline shes not sure she can make --

help simply appears. This summer one of

my interns read a help-wanted ad Id placed

two months earlier and called me, Noon

said. He dropped from the heavens. I find

when I need help, it shows up.

School Lunch Farm operates through a

system called Community Supported

Agriculture (CSA), in which customers buy

shares in advance and receive bags full of

vegetables weekly throughout the growing

season (with the option of a weekly addi-

tional egg share and monthly grass-fed beef

shares). The upfront payments offset the

considerable pre-season costs incurred by

the farmer, including purchases of seeds and

equipment. The CSA model is based on a

shared commitment to a local, equitable

farm system that encourages owners of

small farms to be good stewards of the land

and at the same time helps them to be pro-

ductive and profitable.

This year, School Lunch Farm also has a

stand at the Branchburg Farmers Market,

and is supplying produce to Arturos

Restaurant in Maplewood.

Noon bought her land a little more than a

year ago at auction, and is in her second sea-

son at the farm. While she works towards

organic certification, she uses organic prac-tices -- no chemical fertilizers or pesticides

-- to grow a wide variety of vegetables that

includes all types of greens, squashes, root

vegetables, lettuces, tomatoes, peppers,

eggplants and annual and perennial herbs,

among many other vegetable crops.

We plant almost every vegetable you

can grow in northern New Jersey, she said.

The number of shares sold has increased 50

percent from last year, and there are still

weekly shares available. Im growing

enough food for 100 families, said Noon.

Children and Their Parents ShareA Healthier Way to Eat at School Lunch Farm

CSA members receive their first share of the season.

This year she plans to donate extras to a

food pantry in Mt. Olive and a soup kitchen

in Plainfield.

Noon, 53 and single, is part of a growing

trend in U.S. agriculture: the number of

female-operated farms more than doubled

between 1982 and 2007, according to the

U.S. Department of Agricultures Economic

Research Service, to 306,000. In 2007,

women were the principal operators of 14

percent of the nations 2.2 million farms, a

Margaret in a buckwheat field, a green manure grown to improve the farm's soil

jump of almost 30 percent from 2002.

While School Lunch Farm might look

like many small farms scattered throughout

rural areas of the Garden State, there is an

important difference: Noon apprenticed at a

biodynamic farm in northern New Jersey

for two years, and has carried those prac-

tices onto her own land. She is dedicated to

building healthy soil and enhancing biodi-

versity, two practices that have suffered in

the era of industrial farming.

Noon has also made School Lunch Farm

a focus of her involvement in the interna-

tional organization Slow Food, which advo-

cates for good, clean, fair food raised on

small, local farms using sustainable meth-

ods. She is leader of the northern NJ chap-

ter of Slow Food, which in the last five

years has awarded grants to start vegetable

gardens at 25 schools in New Jersey. She

often invites school groups out to the farm,

where children can learn about farming and

taste freshly harvested vegetables.

When she first started farming in Mt.

Olive, she had no expectations that help was

just down the road. Shes been pleasantly

surprised. A lot of people have been really

helpful, she said. Many neighbors told her

stories about the history of her land. A few

have gone to work rebuilding her tractor

implements and tools. The family thatoriginally owned and farmed this property

still has relatives in the area, and they want

to help me bring the farm back to its full

potential and beauty, she said.

Noons vision for the future is two-fold:

As the name of the farm implies, she even-

tually wants to supply vegetables to school

cafeterias, so that children can be exposed

to healthy, minimally processed meals. She

also dreams of creating a lasting communi-

ty on her farm, perhaps by having young

farmers use some of her land for other agri-

cultural pursuits. I have one CSA member

who wants to raise alpacas, she said, and

another who wants to have goats.

Already, her farm is a gathering place for

friends, family and shareholders. Last year,

about a dozen volunteers helped erect a

greenhouse on the property, struggling to

secure huge sheets of plastic over a metal

frame as they billowed in the wind. Their

reward: a potluck lunch, and armfuls of

just-harvested mint to take home. Recently,

she held a pick-your-own weekend for

shareholders who came out in force, little

kids in tow, to pick sugar snap and snow

peas.

On days when it seems the work will

never be done, Noon thinks back to those

moments. This farm, she said. Is the best

thing that ever happened to me.

Shares of School Lunch Farm cost $700(or less than $35 a week), and provide sus-

tainably-grown vegetables every week for

20 weeks, July through Thanksgiving (those

who join later will have their cost pro-

rated). There are also options for weekly

shares of local eggs and monthly deliveries

of local grass-fed organic beef.

If youd like to buy a share or volunteer

at the farm, contact Noon at margaretm-

[email protected]; or phone 908-451-0051.

by Michele Guttenberger

From his early years as a struggling businessman,

through his golden years as a living legend, Thomas

Edison had a love of nature that beckoned him to the

great outdoors. His camping buddies were Henry Ford,

Harvey Firestone and famous naturalist John Burroughs.

They named their group the Vagabonds and Burroughs

noted in his 1924 diary that the group "cheerfully endure

wet, cold, smoke, mosquitoes, black flies, and sleepless

nights, just to touch naked reality once more." There would

be a series of legendary camping trips covered by the press

journeying throughout America that started with their first

Everglades camping expedition of 1914. Famous people

and presidents would join in as guests to their campsite such

as President Warren G. Harding and President Coolidge.

We can only wonder what Edison would have thought

about this his lab and home in West Orange, NJ being a

National Historic Park site. Would he think it is a hoot that

a kid can earn his/her Junior Ranger badge and patch with

his name on it? The Edison lab is a very unique National

Historic Park site because the attraction is not the typical

natural lakes, rivers, trails and forests but, a late 19th centu-

ry factory lab buildings and an estate home. Even though it

is a manmade wonder, it still receives its own Junior Ranger

park badge and patch. Those who enrolled in the National

Park Service Junior Ranger program are happy to learn

New Jersey has 12 National Park sites. Many have started

their NPS Junior Ranger patch and badge collection when

they were young children and finally find the opportunity to

add the park site badges they missed as a child. You are

never too old to be a Junior Ranger.

Today joining a Junior Ranger program is so much easi-

er to enroll in and obtain the learning material needed for

your Junior Ranger Badge. There is a dedicated website for

each Park. Youngster can get a head start on the Junior

Ranger experience or extend it after visiting the park site.

This summer may be a great time to get started in a recre-

ational childhood memory you can carry over into adult-

hood by becoming a Junior Ranger. To obtain the park

badge there is a set of Junior Ranger workbook activities for

children from ages 5 and up to complete to attain their

badge. After they successfully completed their list of activ-

ities they must take an oath that they promise to share their

knowledge with others and enjoy and protect all National

Parks. This recognition certificate is signed by a Park

Ranger and presented to them along with their badge.

If visiting our National Parks is on your family to do list,

start your national recreational excursion right here in the

Garden State with the Thomas Alva Edison sites in West

Orange, NJ. This NPS site has a Junior Ranger activity

booklet that states to: Work like Mr. Edison and his assis-

tant muckers (engineer and lab techs) that worked

through project problems. Mr. Edison believed problems

are best solved when a good experimenter (you) and few

workers combine their talents to finish the project. Here is

the site location for more program details

Abundant plates of fresh vegetables,

delicate fish from the nearby sea

and splashes of olive oil are all hall-

marks of traditional meals found in the

Mediterranean.

The Mediterranean diet has been

embraced for thousands of years by those

living along the Mediterranean Sea, and is

now followed around the world as con-sumers discover its delicious flavor compo-

nents and researchers uncover its countless

health benefits, including helping to prevent

heart attacks and strokes according to a

study conducted by The New England

Journal of Medicine.

Its easy to embrace this healthy lifestyle

during grilling season by giving your grill a

Mediterranean diet makeover with the

Pompeian family of oils and vinegars. You

can enjoy the benefits of the diet without

leaving home by making simple changes,

such as swapping butter and vegetable oil

for Grapeseed Oil or OlivExtra Premium

Mediterranean Blend, and making home-

made dressings and vinaigrettes by combin-

ing oils and vinegars in place of bottled ver-

sions.

Grapeseed Oil, which has one of the

highest smoke points of all oils and is a rich

source of Vitamin E, has a light taste thatwill not disrupt the flavors of food while

cooking. This versatile, all natural oil is

great to line your grill or pan with before

cooking to prevent food from sticking.

OlivExtra Mediterranean Blend, a healthy

combination of canola, extra virgin and

grapeseed oils, is the perfect all-purpose oil

that represents key components of the

Mediterranean diet and provides essential

Omega-3 and Omega-6, monounsaturated

fat and Vitamin E.

On Saturday July 6th, students from

Generations Of Dance of Roxbury

raised over $1000 to help send 7

year old Connor and his family to Disney as

his final wish. Through the Elle

Foundation, the dancers washed many cars

and collected donations at Sussex Honda on

Rt 206 in Newton. The Elle Foundation,

created by 15 year old Lauren Richmond as

her final wish, is an organization that grants

final wishes for children with a reoccur-

rence of cancer.

Seven year old Connor, suffering from a

brain tumor called Medulloblastma, is

hoping to go to Disney as his final wish.

Connors wish is to forget about cancer

and just have fun in Florida with his

mommy, daddy and 4 year old little broth-

er, explains Laurie Richmond of the Elle

Foundation. We need to raise $7000 to

send them by the beginning of August.

The students, staff and families of

Generations Of Dance are planning many

fundraisers to continue to raise money for

Connor. Another car wash is scheduled for

Friday Aug 9th at Sussex Honda. We

wont stop until we raise $7000, says Beth

Johnson, owner of Generations Of Dance.

Our dancers are always eager to volunteer

but when they hear Connors story and they

realize he is close to their age, it drives them

even harder to help.
