The 102 days between Memorial

Day and Labor Day weekends

are crucial for the Jersey Shore,

which, no matter what town you live

in, has a vital impact on the Garden

States economy. And while beautiful

weather is causing excitement for

beach season to be high, beach townsare also experiencing high anxiety as

the big first weekend looms less than

three weeks away.

Six months removed from the devas-

tation caused by Hurricane Sandy,

Shore towns are still fighting to fully

recover. Beach remediation is going on

in full force in Ocean City, as we speak.

While the Boardwalk is alive and well,and parts of the beach are open to the

public, other parts are still under

heavy construction.

Further north, towns such as Sea-

side Heights, Sandy Hook, Point Pleas-

ant and Sea Bright are all scrambling

to get as much done as possible before

the season opens.What effect this will have on the suc-

cess, or failure, of the local economy

wont be known until the end of sum-

mer, and might not be felt in full until

the winter holiday shopping season.

In Atlantic City, a purchase deal be-

tween PokerStars and the Atlantic

Club casino put a damper on hopes, at

least temporarily. PokerStars, a lead-

ing company in online poker and other

gambling, had been trying to buy the

casino since the fall, but final attempts

to do so fell through.

Now, many of the approximately

1,800 workers at the casino which re-

ported a $43 million net loss in 2012

could be out of a job.

Gov. Christie believes the states

newest offering of online gambling,

which was passed in February, could

become a $1.2 billion industry, but that

wont happen for a few years yet, for

sure.So what can be done in the mean-

time?

If youre Atlantic City, keep trying to

find a buyer for the Atlantic Club, and

expand marketing efforts to bring

more gamblers to the coast.

If youre a Shore town, welcome vis-

itors with open arms, and use these

last two weeks of preparation to workas hard as possible.

If youre a New Jersey resident, stay

local this summer and spend money at

our Shore towns.

Every little bit will help us all in the

long run.

Stay local this summerNewJerseys Shore towns could use your help

Your thoughts

What does the Jersey Shore meanto you? Wed love to hear your storiesof traveling to the beach, and your plansto do so this summer.

about race, gender, ethnicity oranything. Theres no way to pre-vent it and nothing you can do,but its not the end of the world.

OConnell, who has been or-ganizing the walk since its incep-tion, has a 10-year-old daughter,Delaney, who has been livingwith WS since she was 1 year old.

Shortly after Delaney was di-agnosed, OConnell joined theWSA as an area representative.She has been working with theorganization since then and isnow the regional co-chair for thetri-state region.

OConnell has been organizingthe walk for the last four years.To attract more people, she added

a 5K run three years ago.

Since a lot of people dont real-ly know about WS, OConnellthought bringing the walk toMercer County was a perfect wayto educate people about the in-curable, unpreventable geneticcondition.

The first walk around thecountry started five years ago,then four years ago, we reallystarted to try to get awarenessout in the area, and this was oneway we were doing that, shesaid.

If people dont know a lotabout a particular condition likeWS, its harder to draw a lot ofparticipants to fundraisers, O-Connell said.

Delaney is the only person inHopewell who has WS, she said.There are a few people inLawrence, but no one else inHopewell. That presents a chal-

lenge because it requires a lot of

educating people about what itis.

Although WS has ties toautism and Down Syndrome, itpresents a lot of medical issues,including heart conditions.

There are two different heartconditions that come with WS,OConnell said. Delaney doesnthave the main heart issue; shehas a different condition. Thereare some people [with WS] whoare affected medically and notcognitively, and vice versa. Kidslike Delaney, who are in the mid-dle have cognitive and medicalissues have day-to-day medicalstruggles, but not every kid does.Every person is different withWS.

The main thing is that theyreoverly social and overly friendly,OConnell said. Their expres-sive speech is very strong, so peo-ple always think that they'rebrighter than they actually are,cognitively. Delaney is bright for

someone who has a disability andcognitive impairment, but she'snot anywhere near her gradelevel academically, so it gets a lit-tle difficult and challenging inthat aspect.

Students celebrated at collegesAspirations awards ceremony

High school students through-out Mercer County were celebrat-ed at Mercer County CommunityColleges Aspirations 2013awards ceremony held on April23 at Kelsey Theatre.

Published annually by the col-lege, Aspirations features thewriting, photography and artistictalents of area high school stu-dents.

A panel of Mercer faculty andstaff and area high school teach-ers reviews hundreds of submis-sions in order to select the bestpieces to include in the journal,which is put out by the college inthe spring.

It has been a pleasure readingand viewing your work, saidNicole Homer, assistant professorof English at MCCC and the neweditor for Aspirations.

I saw a lot of students tack-

ling huge issues in their writ-ing.

She listed gay rights, multi-cul-turism and gender issues as someof the subjects students chose towrite about.

Fifty-one writers and 33artists, a number with multiplesubmissions, were selected from11 area high schools.

The books cover featured afractured drawing of a face,drawn by Valerie Suto, a senior atNottingham High School.

He encouraged students to con-sider continuing their studies atMercer, listing the colleges Hon-ors program, award-winning stu-dent newspaper and publishedfaculty members as some of themany assets the school has tooffer its students.

High school students featuredin the Aspirations journal at-

tend schools throughout MercerCounty, including AllentownHigh School, Hamilton HighSchool West, Hightstown HighSchool, Hopewell Valley CentralHigh School, Lawrence HighSchool, Nottingham High School,Princeton High School, SteinertHigh School, The LawrencevilleSchool, Trenton Catholic Acade-my, and West Windsor-PlainsboroHigh School North.

Tonight we want to recognizehow you are touching us withyour art, your writing and yourphotography, Homer said.Theres something on everypage of this book thats worth ex-amining.

town to Howe Commons on thenorthern end of Main Street."

This year, Pennington Day alsoincorporates some new activities.

"Ninety percent of the event isthe same.

It's just got a new look and isramped up a bit," Parsons said. "Ithink we've taken it to a place

where it's still a communityevent, but has a feel of somethinga bit bigger and impressive.

One of Parsons' main goals forthis year's event was to create anew identity, he said.

"We wanted to develop theidentity and make it look like amore polished event," he said."We made big banners, stagedressing for the street area wherewe do all of the acts and made abig stage, which worked great."

The committee also decided to

"up the ante" and get more art-and sustainability-based organi-zations involved, including theGrounds for Sculpture and thenewly formed Hopewell ValleyArts committee.

"The renowned Grounds forSculpture will be creating a mini-event within the Pennington Dayexperience, which incorporatesthis year's 'Earth' theme," Par-sons said. "It will host The WheelProject on the lawns of HoweCommons.

The project explores how thearts create community, and alsoaddresses issues of sustainabili-ty. The object is to create art withwhatever materials are avail-able."

The Hopewell Valley Arts com-mittee will also be doing a com-munity participation art projectat the event to kick off its Public

Arts Initiative.The hope is to bring large,

fiberglass statues of oxen, onwhich people can paint.

"We are really starting to add astrong arts and sustainabilitymessage to the Pennington Dayidentity that was developed lastyear, and we are hoping that suchthemes will continue to stay atthe forefront of these communityevents," Parsons said.

The proceeds from the event,as well as donations made bysponsors, help fund the commu-nity grants that the PenningtonDay Board of Directors distrib-ute each spring.

In March 2012, 14 communitygrants were awarded to local non-profits.

In addition, a Signature Grantwas awarded during the summerto the Friends of Historic Pen-nington, a new group supportingthe preservation of historicdowntown Pennington.

Pennington Day is scheduledfor Saturday, May 18 from 10 a.m.to 4 p.m.
