INTERVIEW BY MIKE EPIFANIO; TRANSCRIPTION AND EDITING BY JUSTIN
EPIFANIO }Storms battered Cumberland County just after midnight
Friday night leaving tens of thousands ofCumberland County
residents without power. The thunderstorms created lots of
lightning, heavy down-pours, and strong winds that blew down
utility poles and trees all across the region. The storms hit
withlittle or no warning and left broken utility poles and trees,
downed power lines and debris blocking drive-ways, streets, and
roads, making travel almost impossible in some areas. Traffic
signal lights and streetlights were left unpowered and
inoperable.More than 23,000 Cumberland County residents and
businesses were left without power in the wake ofthe storm. Many of
them were also without water, telephone service, cable TV or
internet service. In theCity of Vineland alonewhere Mayor Robert
Romano had declared a local disastermore than 35 utilitypoles were
blown down or in need of repair.{ COMPILED BY RYAN DINGER

summer.The Vein Center at AMI AtlantiCarecan help get your legs
looking and feeling great. Complimentary ScreeningsAre Available.To
discuss treatment options or to schedulean appointment, please
contact us at: 609-652-6094219 North White Horse Pike, Hammonton,
NJwww.amiatlanticare.comThe Vein Center at Atlantic Medical Imaging
treats the entire spectrum of venous disease from spider veins to
varicose veins. We treat the problem at its source, resulting in a
quicker, less painful treatment option for you.Throughout the
county, recovery fromthe storm damage continues. The day afterthe
storm, Cumberland County officialsdeclared a state of emergency,
which isexpected to help speed up the recoveryprocess.[Declaring an
emergency] cuts througha lot of red tape and makes it so we can
getthe things we need to help county residents.Were working as hard
as we can, as fast aswe can, to help clear county roadways ofdebris
left by the storms, so we can getthings back to normal, said
CumberlandCounty Freeholder Director Carl Kirstein.Currently,
Cumberland County officials,engineers, directors, and the County
Dept.of Public Works are working with theCounty and Local Emergency
Management(OEM), the County 911 Center, the NewJersey State Police,
and Fire and Rescuesquads from throughout the County to clearroads
and get things back to normal.The utility companies are working
torepair utility poles and get the wires backup to restore
electricity and other servicesto residents throughout the
area.County Engineers and the Dept. of PublicWorks have been
assessing intersections andtraffic flow, where theres no power to
oper-ate the traffic lights. The CumberlandCounty Dept. of Public
Works installed newstop signs at many intersections on
Saturday,making themall way (4-Way) stop intersec-tions for public
safety. Residents should bebe alert on the road and constantly on
thelookout for newtraffic patterns. Do notattempt to drive on a
road that has beenclosed for any reason whatsoever.Despite the
benefits that come fromdeclaring a state of emergency, much
workstill needs to be donefallen trees need tobe cleaned up and
there are still many utili-ty poles and wires that need repair.
Manyutility poles and wires are still down andAtlantic Electric,
Verizon Telephone, andthe Vineland Municipal Electric Utility(VMEU)
are working diligently to getthings back to normal for county
residents.Utility companies caution that if youshould come across a
downed wire, do notattempt to touch it or repair yourself, as itcan
still be live and dangerous. Avoid con-tact with the wire at all
costs, and, if youhave power, call your municipality to alertthem
about the wire.Nearly a week after the storm hit, someCumberland
County residents are stillwithout power.As of press time (7 p.m.
Monday)Atlantic City Electric reported that theystill have over
6,000 residences inBridgeton and Millville, respectively, with-out
power, as well as 3,400 more residentsin Upper Deerfield Township
with outages.A.C. Electric attributes these outages toa number of
things. They currently haveeight transmitters out of service, as
well asthree feeders locked out.In Vineland, the VMEU has
reportedthat there are still approximately 5,000 res-idences
without power. The company esti-mates that it could be Saturday
before theyare back operating on all cylinders.According to County
officials, the electriccompanies have been quite diligent in
theirefforts to return to full capacity operation.A.C. Electric has
added 563 additionalline personnelall independent
contrac-torsworking along with 547 of their ownemployees to restore
power. Nearly 250 ofthose employees are working on tree-trimming
alone.The influx of personnel at A.C. Electrichas caused a need for
larger facilities, andthe company has been using the AtlanticCity
Racetrack as an assembly/staging areafor their personnel.Theyre
unsure when exactly full powerwill be restored, but expect it to be
by theend of the week, at the absolute latest.If you are one of the
unfortunate resi-dents who has yet to have their powerturned back
on, there are places of refugefor those seeking an escape or
reprievefrom the heat for a bit.Since the storm, The American
RedCross has opened cooling centers each day,where residents can go
to get some relief.The cooling centers are at PittsgroveMunicipal
Building located, at #989Centerton Road, Elmer (856) 358-2300;
andthe Thomas Wallace School, located at#688 N. Main Road, Vineland
(856) 362-8887, is staying open around the clock. Also,in the City
of Bridgeton, the Bridgeton FireDepartment has been taking ice to
residentswithout electricity. These centers areexpected to remain
open each day untilpower is restored to the region.Officials
recommend going to theCumberland Mall or another retail spot tocool
off and get something cold to drink.Aside from the dangers of the
heat forresidents who are still without power, thereis also the
matter of ensuring people donteat perishable food items that may
now bedangerous.The County Health Department cau-tions residents
about food that may not besafe to eat. Food safety during a power
out-age is always a concern. CumberlandCounty Health Officials want
to remind res-idents that they should clean out and throwaway all
the food thats in their refrigera-tors and freezers if youve been
withoutelectricity. When in doubt, throw it out,say officials with
the Cumberland CountyDepartment of Health. If youve been keep-ing
food cool using your freezer, now, a fullsix days after electricity
was lost, dispose ofthose food items immediately. A locked
andsealed freezer without electricity can onlysustain perishable
food items for about twodays before they spoil.Remember to hydrate
and drink plentyof fluids during days with excessive heat.Check on
neighbors and the elderly tomake sure they are OK, and dont
forgetto take care of pets and give them plentyof water. ISTORM

Cumberland Christian School took part in the Voice of the
MartyrsParachute Project in Colombia, South America. Students
assembled 30 para-chutes to be used by missionary pilots. The
packages will be released fromplanes, then float down into FARC
camps and villages in Columbia, each packagecontains a Bible as
well as a solar-powered radio. Before the parachutes aredropped,
the radio is turned on so that even if the parachute catches in a
tree,someone will hear the radio and climb up to retrieve it. As a
take-off on this ideaof spreading the gospel, students from
Cumberland Christian School releasedballoons filled with verses to
be found by local Cumberland County residents.Cumberland Christian
Schools library theme has been "How Bibles are broughtto people
around the world," said librarian Mrs. Judy Davis.Cumberland County

opportunityto celebrate the historicalimport of Independence Day
byvisiting one of the oldest historic sites inthe area, Bridgetons
Potters Tavern, onJuly 4 from 1 to 4 p.m. to view a
pre-Revolutionary spot where anti-Britishsentiment was voiced and
American inde-pendence encouraged.Potters Tavern, which was
purchasedby the city in 1958, turned over to thecounty in 1996 and
placed into the care ofthe Cumberland County Historical Society,was
built in 1773 and became a popularwatering hole in Cohansey Bridge,
thename given in 1716 to what is nowBridgeton. The bar, owned by
MatthewPotter and located near the county court-house, became a
meeting place for many,including early patriots who led the way
inpromoting the cause of independence.According to the Cumberland
Countrywebsite, Potters Tavern is a two and a halfstory modified
salt box English framedhouse of the type filled between the
tim-bers with salmon brick on edge set in limemortar The general
plan of the house fol-lows that of early, small English houses
inAmericaa hall and a parlor or chamberconstituting the first
floor. A narrowkitchen extended across the rear of bothrooms. The
rear room of Potters Tavernappears to have served as the
kitchenEvidence indicates that, originally, therewere diagonal
fireplaces in [the] front roomon both floors. The old chimney
thereforecontained five flues including the kitchen.I Vintage

Broad Street structurealone would be enough to merit its
histor-ical significance, but what transpiredunder its roof is of
equal magnitude. Aportion of the approximately 150 townresidents
had formed a politically motivat-ed collective at Potters Tavern
and, onDecember 21, 1775, produced the firstissue of the Plain
Dealer, a weekly releasethat served as this areas voice of
dissentto British rule. Edited by 23-year-oldFairfield resident and
tea burner EbenezerElmer, the periodical quickly made clearits
intention of rendering political dis-course on current events and
was cleverlyconveyed to Cohansey Bridge citizens.And as there is no
prep within reach toprint them, the writers of the
publicationexplain, the following method is proposedto render them
public. Each person isimmediately engaged in the undertaking toact
as Secretary for a certain time; who willconscribe, and number all
pieces, so thatthey may be read every Tuesday morningby any one
that will take the trouble to callMatthew Potters Bar for the same.
And thatevery one that has a mind may perusethem, tis expected that
no one will offer totake them out of his house, but everyone
isfreely allowed to take a copy of any or allthe numbers as they
appear and communi-cate the same to as many as he pleases.The use
of Potters Tavern certainlyplaced its owner in jeopardy of
treasonhad authorities decided to take action, yetMatthew Potter
continued to offer hisestablishment as a site for the
dissemina-tion of revolutionary prose. According toonline sources,
contributors ranged fromRichard Howell and Joseph Bloomfield,each
of whom later became governor ofNew Jersey, to Dr. Lewis Howell and
Dr.Jonathan Elmer, Ebenezers brother andformer local sheriff.The
Plain Dealer has variously beenreferred to as New Jerseys first
newspa-per and a forerunner to the newspaperformat. It may very
well have been mod-eled on the English broadside but, regard-less,
it served its purpose in promoting theconcept of independence. The
issues arecurrently housed in the Rare BookCollection of Rutgers
University.The contributors to the Plain Dealercontinued their
self-appointed task throughFebruary 1776, producing what appear to
beeight issues. Sources claimthat five monthslater Jonathan Elmer
gave a public readingof the Declaration of Independence in frontof
the county courthouse before publiclyburning the Kings coat of
arms. His brotherEbenezer was soon one of many Bridgetonpatriots
who carried the written convictionsof the Plain Dealer onto the
battlefields.He was the last survivor of Washington'sofficers on
the Jersey Continental Line. Bythe time he returned home, the
colonieshad been transformed into the country hispublication
favored. IGrapevine 1-9 070512-de:Layout 1 7/2/12 8:15 PM Page

in VinelandWhat started with a slew of bear sight-ings around
Vineland on the night of June28 culminated with excitement on
Friday,June 29, as hundreds of CumberlandCounty residents braved
nearly 100-degree temperatures on Howard Street inVineland to watch
as area officials res-cued a 1-year old black bear from a treein a
residential neighborhood.Reports that the bear had climbed atree in
a residents backyard started tosurface around 10 a.m.
Withinminutes, police officers were onsight, attempting to keep
the235-pound mammal confined tothe tree until Fish and
Wildlifeofficials traveling from SussexCounty were able to
arrive.After several hours, theWildlife officials finally
reachedthe location. Around 4:30 p.m.the bear was shot with a
tran-quilizer dart, and, after a fewminutes, became unconscious.It
fell about 30 feet into a safe-ty net and was unharmed.After
holding it for observation,officials released the bear backinto the
wild later that day.There was speculation that the cub could have
been traveling with hismother and another cub, both of which could
still be on the loose in the area.As of press time, no bear
sightings have been reported since Friday. Story and photos by Ryan
