New Youth Church Pastor Follows Path To Helping Teens

By Cheryl Conway
ody Vagle of Budd
Lake, the new youth
pastor at Mountaintop Church in Hackettstown,
is using his experiences to
help local youth embrace
their religion.
Vagle, whose father and
grandfather were both pastors, admits that there was a
time in his life in which he
was a rebel. Although he
grew up in a Christian home,
Vagle explains how he ran
away from his religion until
his pastor showed him the
way.
Helping other youth and
being an influence has become Vagles mission as the
new youth pastor at Moun-

taintop Church.
Today people need Jesus
and to experience his love
more than ever, says Vagle
who has been working fulltime at Mountaintop Church
since Oct. 14. His job is to
help students grow with each
other and Christ. Thats always been my passion to
help teenagers who are rebelling from God.
Vagle, who grew up in
Cecil County, MD, says I
was 12 years old when I accepted Jesus into my life.
Before that, I was living a
double life. I thought I was a
good Christian kid, but as
soon as I was with my
friends I lived a completely
different life. I was rude and

disrespectful to teachers and


others. I didnt like my
youth pastor at first; even my
parents, I gave them a hard
time.
Regarding his feeling toward God at the time, Vagle
explains It was at the point
I didnt care. If he wasnt implacable to my life, I didnt
want anything to do with him
at the time.
Vagles feeling toward
God changed when his pastor helped him run to God.
My pastor was so influential
in my life. The way he was
to me, always forgiving, was
always patient with me. He
showed me Gods love first-

hand. He always welcomed


me back.
Kids always rebel from

their parents, Vagle says,


like he did. But thankfully
God pulled me out of that

and saved me from my selfishness. Just like he was

Mary Lalama of Flanders, co-owner of New View Media
LLC.
Lalama organized her first drive last year through the
company as a way to give back to the community and help

those facing tough times. From Nov. 2015 through Dec.

New Youth Pastor...


continued from front page
saved, Vagle wants to help other people who
are running or rebelling from God.
Vagle, who got his bachelors degree in
youth ministry from the University of Valley
Forge in Pennsylvania, just moved to NJ in
Oct. 2015 with his wife/college sweetheart,
Jamie in order to take the job at Mountaintop
Church. Jamie, who is from Newport News,
VA, just got her degree in graphic design in
December.
He replaces the previous youth pastor Ken
Findlay who held the position for eight years
until recently moving out of the area.
Im honored and humbled to step in for
him here, says Vagle, 22. Im truly living
the dream here. Im blessed and honored to
be part of the church and the community. Im
honored to work with these children; theyre
awesome. I love hanging out with young
people, with teenagers. They make me feel
younger.
While he admits that coming to NJ
seemed a bit daunting at first, and definitely chillier, he says We love the community. Its beautiful; we live right next to the

lake. We love everything about it. This is


home for us now.
In his new position, Vagle is responsible
of managing the youth ministry at the church
as well as organizing and leading the Wed.
night youth group meeting and Bible Study.
The name of the youth group is Refuge
Youth.
Im here to help out Mountaintop Church
and help the senior pastor, he says.
About 20 students ages 12 to 18, or grades
seven through twelve, attend the youth meetings and programs. Most are from Mt. Olive
but some do live in Hackettstown and other
nearby towns.
In some sessions the students worship
music; in January the theme is Same God,
New Year, New You; in February a relationship series is planned for Valentines Day.
Events are usually once a month and even include game night and movie night. In Nov.
the group went to a district youth convention
in Burlington.
His goals are to show Gods love; show
Jesus to these kids. We want to provide a safe
environment to these kids; dont want to

Breast Cancer Support Group Spreads Awareness To Women

By Anastasia Marchese
here is a lot of breast
cancer awareness out
there, but there are
many women who have had
breast cancer who choose to
keep their experience private.
Many women however
can benefit from sharing
their story with others who
have gone through similar
experiences. Even women
who have chosen not to share
their struggles with others,
can find encouragement and
emotional healing by talking
with other cancer survivors.
Janet Logan has a passion
for turning her life experiences as a breast cancer survivor
into
something
positive. Before she was diagnosed with breast cancer
she already decided to
change careers and use her
lifes experiences to help others. After a fulfilling career
in human resources, she

chose to take a new turn and


become a certified life coach.
So in 2012 she began using
her experiences as a human
resources director for major
corporations, as well as her
training as a certified professional life coach to help empower others make choices
that would be fulfilling and
successful for them.
Her business name is My
Coaching Services, and she
offers both career and business coaching, and health
and wellness coaching services. Her personal enthusiasm for health and fitness
spurred her to continue to
earn her personal training
certificate, even as she received her diagnosis of Stage
1 breast cancer. I felt like
my life was changing Janet
remembers, and I wanted to
use my experiences to help
other people. As part of her
recovery Janet learned of the
Pink Ribbon Program cre-

ated to enhance recovery for


breast cancer patients, according to the website. The
program helps stretch and
strengthens shoulder, chest,
and back allowing the patient
to improve range of motion
and strength to those areas
most affected by breast cancer surgery, treatment and reconstruction.
Janet used this set of rehabilitation exercises to aid
in her own recovery and is
now certified to instruct others in the program. It empowers you. You are doing
something to take care of
yourself, says Logan.
Her desire to connect
with other women who are
dealing with breast cancer
led her to start a Breast Cancer Support Group. It meets
on the third Wednesday of
each month at the Mt. Olive
Library starting at 7 p.m. The
first meeting was in June of
2015.

The group is a place for


women who are dealing with
breast cancer to discuss in a
safe, intimate yet private
way to share personal situations, says Logan. To talk
about the ongoing process
that they have.
Women who have been
told they may have breast
cancer but have not yet received a diagnosis are of
course encouraged to attend
as well. In that in between
time, prior to diagnosis
there is so much you learn,
recalls Logan. There are so
many different kinds of cancers and treatments. Some
are genetic. [In the group] all
of us were tested for the
gene, most of us were negative but genetic testing is
growing.
Logan took part in the
Relay for Life this past
spring and was impressed by
how many familiar faces,
my
kids
friends

mothers...how many people


are affected by cancer. According to the Susan B.
Koman Foundation, the current rate of breast cancer diagnosis in the U.S. is one in
eight; meaning out of every
eight women, one will be diagnosed with invasive breast
cancer during the course of
her life.
Coming together with
other women who are dealing with the effects of breast
cancer can help even very
private woman to heal and
grow through their own
struggles and triumphs. The
Pink Ribbon Programs
motto is Get Back to Living...Not Just Surviving and
that is how Logan seems to
have viewed her own continuing journey through breast
cancer and reconstructive
surgery. That passion to turn
her own difficulties into experiences out of which she
can help others, is the spirit

of the Breast Cancer Support


Group.
Any woman who is currently dealing with any stage
of breast cancer from prediagnosis to reconstructive
surgery and all the struggles
that come in between, as well
as women who are dealing
with the possible scars left on
their hearts, lives and bodies
as breast cancer survivors,
are welcome to attend.

MOMS STEM Team


Win Champion Award

ust prior to Thanksgiving break, 18 students from the MOMS STEM Team
competed in the First Lego League
(FLL) Robotics Mt. Olive Regional Tournament.
For the first portion of the tournament,
students had to present a solution they had
created to solve a problem related to our relationship with trash, by either finding a
way to reduce the resources we use or
reusing materials in a new way.
The second portion of the tournament
consisted of the robot game where students
showcased programs they had created to

allow their robots to solve missions. These


missions required the students' robots to interact with models made of LEGOs by removing/inserting components, pushing
buttons, etc.
One of the teams, comprised of nine students, received the most prestigious award
that can be won at an FLL event, the Champion's Award.
Additionally, this team of students
earned a spot to compete at the State Final's
Tournament held at MOHS Sat., Dec. 12,
competing against 61 other top teams from
throughout the state.

Dancers To Shake In Money For


Heroes At Competition Kick Off

By Cheryl Conway
heater Dance Center
in Flanders will be
celebrating its silver
anniversary later this year
and what better way to kick
off its competition-filled
season than with a gala to
raise money for wounded
warriors and veterans.
Theater Dance Center
has planned its gala, Dance
For Heroes for Sun., Jan.
31, at 3 p.m., at the Mt.
Olive High School Performing Arts Center. All
proceeds from the event
will go to the Wounded
Warrior Project and local
veterans.
For the past four years,
the dance center has hosted
Dance For A Cure, to raise
money for cancer research.
Proceeds from their previous competition showcases
have been allocated toward
Stand Up For Cancer, raising more than $45,000.
This year we have
switched our focus from
cancer to our veterans,
says Millene Schetlick,
owner and assistant director
of Theater Dance Center.

She says she and Mary


Ellen Volz, co-director and
business manager of the
dance studio, decided to
change it up this year.
Our veterans needed
some attention, says
Schetlick. We wanted to
change and help our area
for people in need.
Supporting the veterans
is fitting for the dance center as one of its former students is a retired marine
who served in Iraq and
Afghanistan.
The name of this years
event is pretty clear. Our
wounded warriors and veterans are our heroes, she
explains.
This is the fifth year that
Theater Dance Center has

invited family, friends and


the public to attend a kickoff event that showcases its
competition dance numbers
for the season while collecting proceeds for charity.
Schetlick says the dance
center has been hosting the
competition showcase for
ten years actually but decided five years ago to add
in the fundraising component.
Instead of just doing it
for the sake of dancing, we
figured we could help
someone while we are
dancing, says Schetlick.
Schetlick and Volz have
held the event as a kickoff
to their competitive season, says Schetlick.

Editor Wraps Up Top 2015 Stories; Welcomes More Shining Times For New Year

By Cheryl Conway
year has come and gone since I have taken the
reins as editor of New View Media Group Newspapers and what a positive journey it has been.
Being part of a company that has doubled in size, from
eight monthly papers to 17, has been so exciting but the
greatest joy for me has been being on the forefront of so
many wonderful stories that surround us every day. Most
other newspapers will fill their pages with police stories,
obituaries, car accidents, suicides, murders, disasters, law
suits, political battles and controversial issues that busy
municipal governments and school boards.
While every journalist craves that news breaking story
or that shocking incident for that hard-nose reporter to
capture all those details whether gory or devastating,
there is nothing quite refreshing or satisfying than covering a feel good story that tugs at heart strings and puts
a smile on ones face.
My days this past year have surrounded me with stories about the kindest people who have given their time,
mind and spirit to help others in need; who have gone
above and beyond in their endeavors or jobs; who have
put other peoples lives before theirs; or about events that
bring joy to the community or raise needed funds or supplies for a particular issue or charity; and even about

communities and school districts that continue to work


together to improve their surroundings through new programs and resources; as well as businesses that continue
to keep hard workers employed while providing the best
services to customers.
While New View Media Group is an unaffiliated
paper, meaning it remains untied to any particular religion or political group, it upholds similar virtues and
ethics like being kind to others, helping thy neighbor,
giving tzedaka or charity, doing a mitzvah or kind deed,
volunteering time and sharing generously and unselfishly
with those in need.
Looking back through the twelve months of 2015, so
many stories of genuine kindness fill my mind that it
would be wrongful of me to not reminisce before jumping in to share the positive moments unfolding for 2016.
For Mt. Olive News readers, the stories that took center stage included Sandshore School students jumped
rope to raise money and awareness for American Heart
Association; local exercise class motivated women to
lose weight and keep it off in annual MO Big Loser Contest; local teen made videos to share noteworthy information about historic sites for preservation; Do or Dye
5K Run held to support cancer research; Compassionate
Friends opened local chapter to help victims of child loss;

CMS second graders attended local tour to spread kindness to others; All Veterans Memorial hosted ceremony
to honor and remember local lives lost in battle; food
pantry teamed up with local restaurant for fundraising
food drive; bottle caps are collected at local school for
wounded warriors; local Kiwanis Club partners with food
pantry to help those in need; community effort spreads
hope and support to a 13-year old boy fighting leukemia.
The positive stories are endless and contagious really.
Shared each month to inspire, motivate, reflect and channel others to get involved, donate, give back, participate
or even just turn negative energy into one filled with optimism and hope, each community stands stronger and
united knowing that there are people out there who do
care and are making a difference every day.
Nothing wrong with being humble, but do not let that
stop you from contacting New View Media Group to
share your contribution of how you helped to make the
world a brighter place. There is nothing wrong with shining and patting yourself on the back for some well-deserved recognition.
Send your press releases and story ideas to me at editor@newviewmg.com. I look forward to hearing from
you in 2016until then happy, healthy New Year to all
readers.

MOHS Senior Receives Scholarship For Lacrosse

By J. L. Shively
evin Geiger, a senior at Mt. Olive High School,
began playing lacrosse at the age of 10 and Geiger,
now 18, has received a D2 scholarship to play
lacrosse at the collegiate level for Catawba College. Geiger
plans to play goalie for the Catawba Indians when he begins
his college career next fall.
A lifetime native of Flanders, Geiger states that his interest
in sports began at a young age playing a collection of different
sports such as football, baseball, ice hockey and lacrosse.
This gave him quite the full schedule during any athletic season.
When I got to middle school, I dropped football and baseball to just play hockey and lacrosse, Geiger states. Like
many budding athletes, Geiger was eager to play any sport
and was working on finding the sport he was most passionate
about.
Stating that he continued to play ice hockey until his freshman year of high school, Geiger explains that he then began
to focus all of his time and energy on lacrosse.
My mother, she played on the Womens U.S. team in the
80s, she got me into the sport back when I was younger and
I just immediately fell in love with [playing] goalie, Geiger
says of his inspiration and his decision to play the goalie position nearly from the beginning.
For every fall and summer since his freshman year, Geiger
spent his time honing his lacrosse skills with the New Jersey
Thunder Elite. Then in the summer of his junior year he

played for the Brine National Lacrosse Classic for NJ.


Through the years of playing lacrosse, Geiger has received
many athletic awards with his teammates such as First Team
All-State Group Three in 2015 and First Team All-NJAC, a
conference the team participated in.
Catawba College, located in Salisbury, NC, was Geigers
top choice for college since the summer of his sophomore
year. No school really appealed to me more than Catawba
did, Geiger explains.
I received the news about the amount of the scholarship
about a week prior to receiving the NLI, Geiger explains of
receiving the news of his acceptance along with his National
Letter of Intent, the document which shows an individuals
commitment to play for the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA).
Having signed with the school on Nov. 14, Geiger explains
that he was extremely excited after receiving his acceptance
letter and scholarship information and could not wait until he
could sign.
When he attends Catawba in the fall, Geiger will be receiving a total of $21,000 per academic year, which includes
an academic scholarship as well as his athletic scholarship to
play lacrosse his freshman year.
My parents were relieved to hear that I was getting a decent amount of money per year, Geiger explains of his parents reaction to his acceptance.
Geiger intends to go to Catawba for a degree in athletic
training. His plans for the future not only include receiving

his bachelors degree in his intended major but also to possibly earn a few athletic awards for mens lacrosse at the collegiate level, Geiger states.
With his final year at MOHS already half-way gone,
Geiger is quickly moving closer to his goal.

Mount Olives Got Talent Plans For Exciting Second Year

By Anastasia Marchese
ast winter marked the start of something new in Mt. Olive, an annual
community talent show.
Hosted and run at the Mt. Olive High
School, it is a fundraiser for the student body
and student council. Each class, freshman,
sophomore, junior and senior, received one
fifth of the funds raised, and the remaining
fifth went to the student council. Each class
earned their share by taking part in the planning, set up, audition process, running the
show, and of course the dreaded after-show
clean up.
Last year went off without a hitch remembers Linda Hunter, who is a mathematics teacher at MOHS and one of the advisors
to the class of 2018. We were shocked at the
talent we see in our town right here.
This year Hunter is excited for another
night of great local talent.
It is just a fun night! she says. Performers will be strutting their stuff from elementary age through adult.
With auditions held last month for the
upcoming show, 37 acts auditioned out of
which 24 were chosen to perform onstage
at the show scheduled for Fri., Jan. 22. The
judges, advisors of each grade level, scored

the contestants on a scale of one to five,


with the top scoring acts chosen to perform.
When asked what they are going to differently than last year, Hunter said that they
won't be changing much. Once again each
class will be responsible for certain aspects
of the show, with her class handling ticket
sales and show promotion.
The performance will have many musical
acts with vocal solos, duets, a duet with
piano, a solo with guitar, a duet with ukulele,
and with guitar accompanying. As for the
dancing, there will be performances of tap,
ballet and a group performance. There will
be instrumentalists playing piano as well as
drums. There will also be a demonstration of
martial arts.
It is not only students and community
members who will be performing, but school
faculty and staff as well. Dr. Larrie Reynolds,
Mt. Olive schools superintendent, plans to
take the stage with his band. Mr. Johnson, a
long time substitute at the school plans to perform a vocal solo.
This is not a competition however, but just
a great night to get together as a community
and experience some of the talent right here
in town. The show is Jan. 22, 7 p.m., with

Students Gearing Up For MOGT, from left, are Julia Chang, Kyle Bastarrika, Vinny DeCarlo, and
Juliana Kim.

snow date Jan. 23, at MOHS in Flanders.


Tickets are $10 and all of the proceeds will
be divided equally between classes and student council once again.
For advance purchases, mail check, made
payable to MOHS Class of 2018, to Ms.

Hunter at Mount Olive High School, 18


Corey Road, Flanders, NJ 07836. Include
number of tickets, name, and contact information. Pick up tickets at will call window.

Layups 4 Life Continues To Fight Cancer On The Court

By J. L. Shively
ith winter finally rearing its head, spring feels very
far away indeed. But with something to look forward to, perhaps winter will not feel so very far
after all. On Sun. April 10, Dan Exter is set to be hosting the
second annual Layups 4 Life challenge and registration for
the event is now open.
Exter, a Roxbury High School alumni, always had a passion for the game of basketball and his passion did not fade
when he was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
in the summer of 2013. Having fought his cancer and won,
Exter explains, I wanted to give back and help the place
which inevitably saved my life.
Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) is
where Exter received his treatments and it is this center where
the money raised from the Layups 4 Life challenge will be
donated. Having had his share of varsity court time at RHS,
Exter decided it would be the perfect place to hold his challenge. I wanted to combine my passion with a cause and
that is how Layups 4 Life was born, Exter explains.
Cancer research is a long and ongoing process which is
why funds are always needed for the research as well as clinical trials which will aid in working towards a cure. Exter
explains that after last years challenge he divided the donations up into three different categories all within MSKCC.
The categories were General Leukemia, Pediatric Leukemia
and a Bone Marrow Research Foundation. Although disbursement of funds has not yet been decided for this year, it
is likely that the money raised from the challenge will again

go to the same categories within MSKCC.


The Layups 4 Life main challenge consists of a 3-on-3
basketball tournament open to both boys and girls ages 15
and up. This challenge invites Roxbury residents to compete
and, as Exter explains, the challenge is open to the Roxbury
community and beyond, having stated that lasts years event
consisted of teams from all over the east coast such as participants from New York, Connecticut and Massachusetts.
The teams can be co-ed and in the past had members from
ages 15 up to 50. The cost for registration is $25 per team
member and teams consist of four members. The cost of registration goes up to $30 per team member after April 4.
This tournament gives a chance for anyone and everyone
to show their skills on the court as well as an opportunity to
honor family and friends who continue their battle with cancer. Exter recalls that many teams make t-shirts with their
team name and one team last year had shirts to honor their
friend still fighting cancer. This tournament is a great reminder of the strides that have been made to combat cancer,
with Exter being living proof, but it is also proof that the battle
has not yet won for everyone.
An overall winner of the tournament will be chosen at the
end of the event. Last year the winners were presented with
a gym bag with the Layups 4 Life logo on it and spectators
who participated in the raffle and silent auction were able to
win an array of gift certificates donated by local businesses
as well as professional sports memorabilia. Exter says a prize
is hopefully in the works for this years winners as well.

raised more than $10,000 with 40 teams registered to play


and 300 spectators in the stands, the Layups event had quite
the draw. With this years event drawing closer challengers,
seasoned and rookie, are invited to come out and register.
Even for those who wish to stay off the court there is a
place to help out, Exter explains that making a donation, becoming a sponsor or even just coming by on the day of the
event to take part in the silent auction and raffle as well as
cheering on the teams helps out just as much.
The event is scheduled to be held at the ROHS on Sun.
April 10; doors open at 10:30 a.m.; team registration confirmation is at 10 a.m.
For more information about Layups 4 Life or to become a
sponsor email Exter at layups4life@gmail.com. To donate

Local Car Dealership Drives Business With Strong Family Ties And Community Support

By Cheryl Conway
ike an engine that keeps on running,

after almost 60 years of business, and continues to treat all who walk through its door with

other car dealer. Theres no pressure. Unlike
highway dealers, we are not the same as
every other highway dealership or highway
store. Thats the biggest compliment we get.
Palecco says she gets an overwhelming
response from customers of how we are completely different; of how they didnt feel pressured here.
Being that the business is run by family,
Palecco says We really make sure we are
hands on. There are a lot of us here. I respond
back to every customer review we get.
The car dealership sells new and used cars
and also services and sells parts for all makes
and models.
The specials running this month are: zero
percent financing up to 60 months on all
2016 GMC Acada and 2016 Buick Enclaves!
Also, save up to $9,000 on select models.

Check the dealership for details.


The five family members who currently
run the Callaremi Cadillac Buick GMC include Palecco, her father and owner Michael
Callaremi of Long Valley; her younger
brother Michael Joseph; her husband, Jason
Palecco; and her sister-in-law Kelsey
Palecco.
Her father, Michael Callaremi has been a
GMC dealer for 25 years and was recently
awarded by the Buick GMC Cadillac company who came out to their dealership a few
weeks ago to award him.
They came out and made a big deal,
says Palecco, with a party and plaques. They
[the company] dont get to award anyone for
that long anymore.
Callaremi took over the business from his
father, Joseph Callaremi Snr., who had started
the business in 1957 as Hanover Motors in
Hackettstown.
Paleccos grandfather, Joseph, grew up in
Newark after coming over to the United
States from Italy at the age of two.
My grandfather didnt even have enough
money to go to school, says Palecco. He
didnt have shoes or books. A social worker
found my grandfather on the side of the road
and asked why he didnt go to school. She
then bought him shoes and books and sent
him to school, Palecco tells about her grandfather who died in 1989 when she was seven
years old.
Her grandfather had learned about cars
from a local street-side mechanic.
He learned the trade, says Palecco. He
always loved cars. He started to work for an
older gentleman on the side of the street;
then started working in dealerships and
worked his way up, graduated from high

school and then joined the army where he


worked on tanks for the front line during
WWII.
In 1978, Callaremi Pontiac was founded
and debuted with General Motors. It has had
divisions of Pontiac, Buick and Cadillac
since 1978 and in 1983, it added GMC.
Callaremi Cadillac Buick GMC in Budd
Lake will be approaching its 60th anniversary
in 2017, with celebration plans in the works.
Palecco is thinking maybe a small vintage car

SOS- Women And Children


Looking For An Angel To Save Shelter

By Cheryl Conway
or those who agree its better to
give than receive, there is an opportunity banging on the door of a
shelter organization that could help hundreds of women and children who may be
left on the street if the mortgage is not paid.
Secret Santas may be long gone, but
there has to be an angel out there willing to
hold the mortgage of Strengthen Our Sisters, a grassroots, community based nonprofit, program serving homeless/battered
women and children for more than four
decades. Faced with mortgage conflicts,
the shelter has to come up with $30,000 by
Jan. 15 to avoid foreclosure.
Established in 1977 as Shelter Our Sisters - the first shelter for battered women
in North America- the organization
changed its name to Strengthen Our Sisters
(SOS) and grew to eight houses, two day
care centers, a food pantry and a thrift
store. The properties value a total of $2.5
million, with just under $600,000 left to be
paid. With restricted monies coming in, the
organization is at risk of closing its doors
to hundreds of women and children with no
other safe place to go.
I dont know what would happen to
these people, says Sandra Ramos of Ringwood, founder and executive director of
SOS. If we dont get help with the mortgage people will be on the street. If someone wants to be an angel and save our
mortgage that would be great.
Ramos explains if we had the $30,000
it would be the drop down money if someone could give it.
Rialto Capital Management Advisors in
Florida, the company that is holding the
mortgage bridge loan, did not return phone
calls to New View Media Group as of press
time. Valley National Bank had sold the
mortgage to Rialto when SOSs funding
was reduced, says Ramos.
During this year and one half, they
have seen our reliability and commitment
to avoid foreclosure by paying $30,000
every three months, which is directly applied to the principal, along with a monthly
payment of $7,000, says Ramos. SOS
has done this faithfully, although it has

been challenging.
Ramos, a pioneer advocate for battered
women, started her first shelter in 1970 in
her three bedroom home in Hackensack.
She had three small children at the time,
was facing divorce after ten years of marriage and was in need of a roommate, she
explains.
I wanted a roommate, says Ramos, so
she put the word out that she wanted to
share her house. The ones who came to
me were the ones who got battered, says
Ramos. Women called to say I cant stay
in my house.
One roommate turned into 23 women in
her house at one point, she admits. Her
children would sleep with her in her waterbed; there would be some guests on the
floor, in the bathtub, in the basement.
I would get a call and say Im sorry I
have no room. But it was difficult to turn
people away who would say I finally got
the courage to leave; if you dont take me
I will die.
Ramos says, My neighbors said they
didnt want battered women on their block,
and I told them, they are already here, the
question is do you want them living with
pain, suffering and horror or do you want
them living with peace, dignity and respect?
When the town found out that Ramos
had too many people at her house they
threatened to put me in jail, she says. The
town cited her for overcrowding because
she had three or more unrelated people living together.
I told the town If you want a place for
them you have to drag them out kicking
and screaming; so they put them in a
motel, Twin Lakes Motel in Paramus.
Ramos did not turn her back on them
and instead continued to help them.
We would have to pick them up and
take them to look for housing, counseling,
says Ramos. They [the town] didnt give
them food or services, counseling.
The Catholic Church would bring food
and battered women would work together
to help other women.
Over the years, in 1977, her initiative
became Shelter Our Sisters. She moved out

of her house to Bergen County in a house


located on a churchs property in Bogota.
About 10 to 15 women in children lived
there.
Her organization grew, and established
a board of directors, but after a disagreement, the board fired Ramos in 1986.
Ramos separated and formed SOS a
year later. With her children grown, she
moved to her house in Ringwood and people started calling me. I let some people
stay in my house. We knew we had to get a
shelter.
They opened a thrift store in Haskell.
We raised more money, and even the
board from her first organization would
send her people to help.
With a state regulated budget of up to
four million dollars, Ramos was able to
manage her organization but as state regulations got stricter, operations got tougher
such as paying the mortgage.
Ive always been an advocate for
women and children, says Ramos, who
teaches social issues and dynamics of domestic violence at Ramapo College in
Mahwah as an adjunct professor. Everybody has been touched by domestic violence in one way.
One woman was going to be killed by
a gangster guy, explains Ramos. Other
women and children she brought into her
shelter were rich but their husbands were
molesters and child abusers. No one
would take them. We reach out to people
who need help. We help a lot of pregnant
women and children.
Through her shelter program, Ramos
says thousands have been saved during
the past 46 years. With two hotline numbers, Ramos has made herself available to
help others.
The mission of SOS is to break the
cycle of domestic violence, poverty and
abuse by restoring balance and harmony
through individual empowerment.
She currently helps 155 women and
children in seven shelters located in New
Foundland, Wanaque and West Milford;
two daycare centers in Wanaque and West
Milford; a thrift store in a church; and one
food pantry in Wanaque.

To support her organization, Ramos receives some money from the Passaic
County Dept. of Human Services, private
donations, counties and social services,
but not enough to keep it going. We have
a transportation grant but they took it away.
We have five vans; we need help. Weve
been running for three and a half years with
a non-paid staff, down from a paid staff
of 55 that were let go when SOS lost funding, she says.
Ramos says she currently has 17 nonpaid volunteers who drive the shelter residents to look for jobs, to court, doctor
appointments, social services, schools;
they fix things, watch children.
They are exhausted but they believe in
the shelter, says Ramos, just like she does.
I have seen women that have come to
me and their lives are a wreck, depressed,
suicidal, she says.
People are still calling, continues
Ramos. Every day I get four or five calls.
We take almost everybody. We take people
who no one else will take. We take people
without welfare vouchers. We dont want
to see them killed, beaten or frozen to
death.
Yesterday, a 70-year old woman had no
heat, we took her, adds Ramos. She also
took in another woman with five children,
who would be out in the street forced to
live with child molesters.
One of her houses is for all older
women, some in wheelchairs, others with
oxygen. Nobody will take them.
Many of the women and children her organization helps dont have families, are
on section eight, have families or friends
who dont like them; who dont want to
help them. We have a lot of dysfunctional
families.
Ramos explains, I see them heal, get
strong and get their lives together. We live
in a violent society; theres a lot of violence. The work Im doing I feel its a mission but right now I need an angel. I just
need someone to pay off the mortgage or
hold it. We just really need someone to
help.
To make a donation or to help, call
Ramos at 973-831-0898.

MO Mayor Gives Township Address 2016

t. Olive Twp. Mayor Rob Greenbaum recently


gave his State of the Township Address for
2016. Here are some highlights. For the full address, visit the mayors page on the township website at
mountolivetownship.com.
At the outset, I want to thank the residents of Mt.
Olive for electing me to lead this town as mayor for another four years. I am very excited about where we have
come from in my first term as mayor and where we are
going in my second term.
Of course, everything we have achieved would not
have been possible but for the work and support of the
governing body. I would like to thank Joe Nicastro for
his leadership in 2015 and look forward to working with
him again next year in 2016. I congratulate Joe on his appointment to a second term as council president and thank
him and the rest of the town council for their support and
tireless effort to attend as many events in town as possible.
Through our conservative financial management,
smart spending, and our efforts to attract new businesses
to Mt. Olive, for the third consecutive year, the budget
that I will be submitting to the council will have no tax
increase. I am also satisfied and pleased to report that the
surplus regeneration projections for 2017 leave the township in a sound fiscal position for next years budget.
As you all know, this year we will be starting and completing the splash pad up at Turkey Brook Park. This project was entirely funded in last years budget. In 2016,
rather than spending significant money on recreation improvements, we will be focusing on infrastructure maintenance, namely road repaving in areas of town which
sorely need a fresh coat of asphalt. The budget I am submitting to council this year will include an allocation for
four times the amount of money which I have normally
allocated to fix the roads in town.
During my first term as mayor, the township was fortunate to have strong leadership provided by our business
administrator, Sean Canning. I feel equally as confident
that our new business administrator Laura Harris will provide the same level of leadership and dedication that Sean
provided the township under his stewardship.
When this administration took office in January of

2012, we recognized that there was a disconnect between


the municipal government and the residents. This was all
due to the failure of the government to adequately communicate with the residents. One of the greatest successes
that we had during my first mayoral term was to fix the
communication problem.
In 2015, through Facebook, radio, newspaper, signs,
flyers and any other media we could think of, we have
communicated over 6,500 announcements, events, programs, pet adoptions, and job opportunities. We continue
to inform our residents as well as those residents in the
surrounding towns - Our reach has increased between
12,000-21,000 people weekly. Mt. Olive continues to be
the point location for developers, Chamber of Commerce,
County College of Morris, and Morris County, leading always by example. We have set the standards high and
continue to think outside of the box to welcome many
more eating establishments, businesses and families to
move into Mt. Olive Township.
The administration also continues to work with existing and new businesses through our outreach program to
truly make Mt. Olive business friendly.
We are also diligently working on development matters
in the Trade Zone which may positively impact the town
for years to come. We are also working with the Board
of Education on joint opportunities to improve town facilities.
Mayor Greenbaum cites accomplishments of the finance department such as having their seventh in a row
with no audit recommendations and a tax collection rate
which is currently 98.75 percent. For a full list visit the
township website.
He mentions the many events, projects and normal routine maintenance by the Parks, Buildings & Grounds division of Administration, with an addition of two full time
staff members and productivity increase from 1,681 work
orders in 2014 to nearly 4,000 work orders in 2015. Some
significant accomplishments and events for the department included 21 recreation events; hosted softball and
baseball tournaments on district, state and regional levels
filling local hotels and eateries with guests from up to
seven states; hosted the second largest "Food Trucks and
Fireworks" festival in northwestern NJ with an estimated

8,000 - 10,000 people attended; hosted the annual Mt.


Olive Week Carnival. For a full list visit the website.
The Information Technology Department under the
leadership of Scott Gaskill lowered our operating expense
through increased vigilance over outside IT service
providers of tens of thousands of dollars.
Greenbaum goes on to cite accomplishments of the
Department of Public Works and Fleet Maintenance and
the many special events organized by the Recreation Department attracting more than 47,000 attendees, 122 business sponsors and more than 100 volunteers. Eight new
events debuted, which included the Snow & Ice Party,
Lego Festival, Wet & Wild, Touch-a-Truck, Food Trucks
& Fireworks, Starry Skies Craft Beer and Wine Festival
and the Blanket & Coat Drive.
Budd Lake Park has a new accessible Fishing Dock.
Equishare at Valley Brook is making improvements to
Valley Brook Park, to develop an equestrian center.
For 2016, five new events are planned as well as the
opening of the Pirates Cove at Mount Playmore Splash
Park and several new technology based programs for children.
Other departments he mentions include the Planning
Board, Municipal Court, Health Depart., Animal Control,
Public Health Nursing; Senior Citizens program, Building
Depart., Fire Marshalls Office, Police Dept.
What I have included in this address is only a small
sampling of what our Township Departments and employees accomplished over the course of the last year, he concludes.
As we move forward into 2016 and beyond, we have
many things to look forward to. We can all also take pride
in the momentum the township has and continues to generate. I cant tell you how many people stop to tell me
that they love living in Mt. Olive.
I would like to thank the town council, our business
administrator, Laura Harris and all of our municipal employees for a job well done in 2015. May you all and have
a happy, healthy and prosperous New Year.
Sincerely and with great appreciation,
Rob Greenbaum
Mayor, Mt. Olive Township

Mt. Olive Girl Scouts Dive Into World Problems With Robotics

t. Olive Girls Scouts are rockin


with robots! Eighteen local Girl
Scouts participated in the FIRST
LEGO League regional qualifying robotics
tournament at Mt. Olive High School in
Flanders on Nov. 22. FLL is a robotics competition for boys and girls in grades four
through eight. Its designed to inspire kids
to pursue careers in STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art/design and math)
fields. In August of each year a new challenge is announced and participants have
about 12 weeks to prepare for a tournament.
Valerie Perugini, who manages the Mt.
Olive Girl Scouts robotics program along
with adult volunteers Noreen Debrot and
Sangeetha Sampath, said that the girls have
been working hard since the beginning of
September to design, build and program a
LEGO MINDSTORMS robot to compete
on a tabletop playing field.
She is quick to note, FLL is about so
much more than just the robot. In addition
to the robot game, every team must research a real-world problem and develop an
innovative solution, which they present to
a panel of judges at the competition. The
2015 challenge was called Trash TrekSM

and it involved learning about the current


state of trash disposal and recycling, identifying a specific problem and then creating
an innovative solution to it.
Along the way, said Perugini, they
are developing skills that they can use
throughout the rest of their school years and
into their adult lives, she said. In this program they learn about independent and critical thinking, collaboration, teamwork and
how to be a gracious professional. And they
have fun doing it.
Now in its third year, the Mt. Olive Girl
Scouts program fielded three teams for this
seasons competition: Circuit Breakers,
Robo LLAMA, and The Minions. Each
team competed for awards in Robot Performance, Robot Design, Core Values, and
Innovative Solution.
At the Mt. Olive tournament, Circuit
Breakers won the Core Values Award for
outstanding teamwork. The Minions, an allrookie team of fourth and fifth graders, had
the highest score in Robot Performance and
qualified to advance to the State Championship.
Noreen Debrot noted that all of our
teams performed well and had shining mo-

ments. Were so proud to see how much


they accomplished in just twelve weeks.
Girls currently in grades four through isx
who are interested in joining next years
team, or anyone who would like learn how
to start their own FLL team, may contact
MOGSRobotics@gmail.com for more in-

formation.
Mt. Olive Girl Scouts is comprised of
more than 550 registered girl scouts participating in 55 troops with more than 100
trained leaders. Interested in joining Girl
Scouts?

Family Promise Opens New Drop In Center, Our Promise

By Anastasia Marchese
t is difficult to encapsulate the work of
Family Promise.

Its mission statement explains it best;


Family Promise of Morris County is a
non-sectarian, not-for-profit organization
dedicated to ending the crisis of homelessness faced by Morris County families by
partnering with other public and private
agencies, religious congregations and community volunteers to provide shelter, case
management and mentoring services leading to self-sufficiency.
One of the main ways that Family Promise has served the homeless community in
Morris County has been through its interfaith network. More than 70 area congregations open their homes of worship on a
rotating basis, to provide temporary food
and shelter for those without housing.
Many volunteers throughout the county
make this Emergency Shelter and food
available to those in need.
The new Our Promise drop in center
does not provide nighttime shelter, but is
meeting many other pressing needs for the
homeless community in Morristown.
We have two main focuses at the center, said Joann Bjornson, executive director of Family Promise Morris County
providing for basic needs and case management.
When people who are not living in a
homeless situation think of basic needs,
there are many things that may not come to
mind. Bjornson noted how important access
to bathrooms and hygiene items are for
those living without safe housing.
Even just the dignity and respect of
being able to have access to clean, safe restrooms, she said. And things like underwear, socks and feminine hygiene items.
Bjornson mentioned that the homeless
population often doesnt have access to
laundry facilities either.
Their socks get wet and they have no
way to wash them, so instead of carrying
around dirty socks, they throw them away.
In order to help people clean and maintain their belongings, the drop in shelter
provides laundry cards.
There are so many other things that people may not identify as needs such as rain
ponchos, sunscreen, deodorant, lip balm
and lotions.
When you think about it, if you are
spending most of your time outside, you

need sunscreen.
It is also important that during hot or
cold weather, people have access to the centers heating/cooling station, just to be able
to get out of the elements.
Try to imagine living life without a
home to provide shelter and a safe place for
taking care of general health and hygiene
issues. Any woman who has been camping
during her period can understand the difficulty of feminine hygiene issues without
access to running water and toilets. Even
the costs of hygiene products can be prohibitive.
Meeting these kinds of basic human
needs and respecting the dignity of the
homeless population is a large part of what
the drop in center has to offer.
The second part of the mission is case
management. This is the opportunity to
work with clients and understand their current situation and how it is affecting them.
It also means finding services that they are
eligible for and connecting them up with
agencies or organizations that can meet
these needs.
Things like providing a legal address for
people, so they can send and receive correspondence and payments. They also have
access to telephones, computers and a
knowledgeable clinical staff that can not
only listen to their story, but also connect
them up with other organizations that can
help.
People say that they should pull themselves up by their bootstraps, and hard
work, but that isnt enough anymore points
out Bjornson. Minimum wage jobs are
often the most physically exhausting, but
how do you get to the next level? You are
living in poverty, how do you even imagine
that?
Minimum wage jobs used to be enough
to make ends meet, when someone could
get a room for $100 a week but now its
$600-$800 a month for a room in Morris
county. That isnt doable on a minimum
wage job.
If someone gets sick, then forget it. They
will never be able to catch up. That is why
education is needed, so people can have access to higher paying jobs which would enable them to afford housing.
Some people may see a homeless person
with a cell phone and think that if they cant
afford housing they shouldnt have a cell
phone. Once again, if someone imagines
himself living without safe housing, the

need for a cell phone becomes instantly apparent. It is also nearly impossible to secure
employment without a phone number. The
drop in center provides charging stations for
cell phones as well.
Family Promise is also working with
local health care professionals to provide
health care options.
People can use the ER for their medical
care, says Bjornson. They have no time
for prevention; there is no time for that, so
its more reactive.
Helping people find avenues of care before there is a crisis can keep them out of
the ER.
When the center first opened in July, it
was having mostly clients picking up their
mail and leaving. About 10-15 people a day
dropped in, but didn't really take advantage
of the services being offered. Now, there are
between 25-45 people a day with about 125
unduplicated clients a week, with many
people staying to use the center, and speak
with the staff and volunteers.
The clinical staff is really helping peo-

ple, reflects Bjornson.


The mission of Our Promise is not completely set as Family Promise continues to
figure out what the actual needs are and
how to best address them. For 2016, the
center is considering the needs of people released from prison and hospitals, and considering how they can help these people
find their place in society.
The center is able to do all this through
the use of government funding, and the
charity of various business, organizations
and individuals. They have trained staff on
site as well as the valuable donations of
their time by volunteers. They are currently
looking for a volunteer to help at the drop
in center.
Anyone interested in getting involved either as a volunteer or through donations can
contact Our Promise at 973-644-0100 or
ourpromise@familypromisemorris.org.
The drop in center is located at The First
Baptist Church of Morristown and is open
Mon. thru Fri. 1 p.m.-4:30 p.m.

Bring Warmth And Freshness To


Your Winter Breakfast

uring the cold and dark winter


months, its important to stay
warm and well-nourished. Using
in-season ingredients and produce is a
simple way to brighten your winter blues
and introduce authentic vitamin-rich flavor to your meals.
Florida Grapefruit reaches its best
taste during the heart of winter, making it
a great source of fresh, nutrient-rich fruit
at a time when many others are not available, said Emily Richards, cookbook author. I like to add Florida Grapefruit and
its juice to salads, savory dishes and
snacks.
Follow this recipe from Richards for
Quinoa Grapefruit Blueberry Breakfast to
add Florida sunshine and a boost of energy to your blustery mornings. This re-

freshing breakfast combines hot quinoa


with Florida Grapefruit and blueberries
for a new twist on breakfast.

and find more recipes, visit GoFloridaGrapefruit.com.

Santa & St. Huberts Animal Welfare


Center Deliver Shelter Pets To Families

everal local families made Santas nice


list this year and got a wonderful surprise when he showed up at their front
doors with their new pets.
Part of a longstanding tradition, Santa
partners with St. Huberts Animal Welfare
Center to deliver shelter pets to their new
homes on Christmas morning. This special
pet delivery is offered to adopters at their
Madison, North Branch, and Mt. Olive adoption centers. This year, St. Huberts staff,
along with Santa, visited families across
northern and central New Jersey to bring
them their new family members.
It is always exciting to see our shelter
pets go to their new homes for the holidays,
said Heather Cammisa, president and CEO
of St. Huberts. Its especially heartwarming
to make Christmas even more special for
families in our area, and to see the joy these
pets bring to them.
To help pets get acclimated to their new
homes, St. Huberts also offers ongoing support to adopters, including animal care and
behavioral consultation programs and a pet
helpline. These programs are also available
to the public.

Families who did not receive a visit from


Santa and St. Huberts on Christmas are in
luckSt. Huberts adoption centers in Madison, North Branch, and Mt. Olive are open
regular hours for the rest of the holiday season and are ready to help adopters find their
perfect match.
Founded in 1939, St. Huberts Animal
Welfare Center operates a renowned dog
training center and three adoption centers
with a fourth opening in 2016. St. Huberts
provides animal control services to a number
of municipalities and provides a variety of
programs including humane education
throughout northern New Jersey, pet therapy,
a pet food pantry, low-cost spay/neuter of
community cats, a pet helpline, and a professional education and training series. St. Huberts is a regular response agency for local,
regional and national disasters. The organization also houses the ASPCA Behavior
Rehabilitation Center, a ground-breaking behavior program for dogs that were victims of
puppy mills, hoarding or other abuse.
