There aren’t many who can say that they’ve been help-ing their community, and beyond, for 75 years.However, the Hackettstown Rotary Club can lay
claim to just that.Having received its charter from Rotary International in
Feb.1940, this year marks the club’s diamond anniversary.Its treasurer, Joan Westby of Westby Marketing Services,
Inc. in Allamuchy, said, “The Hackettstown Rotary is madeup of many local business owners and representatives of organizations with a common, inspired mindset to give backto the community and help those in need.”
Past President Kevin Guyette of the ARC of WarrenCounty added, “Our mission extends beyond our local pro-grams to support those Rotary International programs thatfight polio, bring clean water to villages in faraway places,bring sick children to the US for medical care, and so muchmore.”
The organization’s best known event, and biggestfundraiser of the year, is its annual Memorial MotorMadness which is held the Sunday of Memorial Day week-end. Westby noted that this year marked the 21st year for thecar show which was attended by approximately 3,500 peo-ple. It raised $32,000 for The Joan Knechel Cancer Centerat Hackettstown Regional Medical Center and Rotary proj-ects benefitting area individuals and nonprofits.
“Other efforts may raise some additional money for theclub and its programs, but the car show and the food drivefor the Norwescap Food Bank bring in the most donations of all programs,” said Guyette.
Rotary member, Norman Worth, president of WRNJ, Inc,said, “One of the milestones of the club was raising over$200,000 over 10 years (1985- 1995) with an annualHoliday Food Drive for the Norwescap Food Bank. Theclub continues to hold an annual Holiday Food Drive, but bycollecting actual food donations each Saturday beforeThanksgiving.”
The club has touched many throughout the area, reachingout when help was desperately needed.
Guyette said, “The club has helped get families burnedout of their homes back on their feet, assisted parents deal-ing with a child’s terminal illness with meals and financialaid, lent aid to a family of four children who lost their par-ents, helped make the journey through chemo and other can-cer care easier on our neighbors via the financial rewards of the car show, and so much more.”
Westby has only been with the club for four years, butshe’s had the opportunity to participate in what she describes“great gestures of service: “ Collecting turkeys for those inneed, helping college students with their funds through thescholarship program, putting smiles on third graders whenwe give a dictionary to each every year through theDictionary Project, as well as, shipping beds to the hospitalin St. Kitts, and raising funds for a needed piece of equip-ment for Hackettstown Regional Medical Center.”
Even with all it’s done, Guyette said the club’s greatestimpact is what its actions say about “Rotary,” that it’s thereto make the world better and that it offers others the chanceto do the same through community service.
One of the Hackettstown Rotary Club’s fun events, is co-
sponsored by the Washington Rotary and reflects a longtimerivalry. The event is the Beater Board. Worth explained,
“Hackettstown High vs. Washington High (which eventual-ly became Warren Hills Regional High) is a football rivalrythat goes back nearly 90 years. The Beater Board was animplement used to compress hay into bales and is a symbolof a bygone era of two former farming communities compet-ing against one another. The rivalry endures and our lunch-eon each year honors the coaches, players, and parents [of the rival high school football teams].” Guyette said the beat-er board is inscribed each year with the winning team andyear, going back to 1948.
While it is clear that the Hackettstown Rotary is active inthe local area, it also reaches out beyond those borders, far

beyond them. The club has a relationshipwith St. Kitts, in the West Indies, and a pro-gram called Optimum Chance, which helpschildren with developmental disabilities.
Guyette explained , “Many years ago, theclub made a major commitment to a pro-gram called Optimum Chance, a team of early intervention professionals from TheARC’s Project First Step, who volunteeredtheir time and resources to bring early inter-vention to the island of St Kitts. The lateBarbara Salamy [a special needs nurse]headed up that effort after learning about thenonexistence of early intervention serviceson the island. Many families, fearing thestigma associated with disabilities, lockedtheir children up and many were unawarethose children, some of them now adults,even existed. Through Optimum Chance,families were offered evaluations of theirchildren and welcomed the help with openarms, many of them traveling miles barefootto meet with the team. The island’s Ministerof Health and other officials welcomed theteam and gave them every resource theycould. St Kitts has a Rotary Club, as well,and those members offered their homes andvehicles to the team to make them comfort-
able. It was an amazing coordination of efforts that has changed lives immeasur-ably.”
Out of that effort, Guyette said theHackettstown Rotary Club discovered the
lack of medical supplies and equipment atthe island’s hospital. This resulted in a part-nership between Hackettstown RegionalMedical Center and St. Kitts’ hospital aswell as the hospitals on its sister islands, theNevis. Gently used, but still state of the art,equipment from the medical center is donat-ed to the facilities on the islands and theRotary ships it.
Guyette said, “MARS Chocolate also hasstepped up with donations of candy withthese shipments, and the cries of joy whenthe candy is distributed is incredible.
Patients, staff, and volunteers are so verygrateful for everything we have helpedsecure for them, particularly the M&Ms!”
In May, the Hackettstown Rotary Clubmarked its anniversary as part of the PaulHarris Fellowship Awards dinner, recogniz-ing Mark Elbaum, Nancy Paffendorf andElliott Koppel for their outstanding serviceto the community at Rutherfurd Hall inAllamuchy.
Reflecting on the anniversary and the
Hackettstown Rotary Club...continued from page 6
club’s history, Worth said, “For 75 years,this club has been a slow, steady rainfall of nourishment for both charitable and com-munity organizations, as well as individualsin need.”
He added, “It’s ‘worth’ mentioning thatin 1987, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled (7-
0) that Rotary Clubs were not ‘exclusive’and could no longer deny women member-ship. As you can imagine, Rotary hasn'tbeen the same since. It's been much bet-ter.”
One of those women, Guyette, closedwith what the rotary means to her. “Thereare no words. To say it’s an honor and aprivilege seems trite and over-used. But Ican tell you, I get teary sometimes when Ilook up in the middle of something so wildand crazy as the car show to see nearly
three dozen Rotarians and their familymembers working closely together – andloving it – to make a success of an eventthat has such far-reaching implications forour community. I love these people.”

evening and a wonderful opportunity for
me to meet people.”
On July 25, the movie will be “Alvin

Alvin, brainy Simon, and chubby,
impressionable Theodore- help a strug-
gling songwriter named Dave find fame

Unwanted tires, a potential breedingground for mosquitos, are beingrecycled through a program
launched today by the Warren CountyDistrict Landfill in conjunction with the
Warren County Board of ChosenFreeholders and the county’s MosquitoCommission and Health Department.
Warren County residents, businesses andfarmers can bring unwanted tires to the land-fill in Oxford, for disposal for a nominal fee,according to the Pollution Control FinancingAuthority of Warren County, which operatesthe facility. Proof of residency is required.
“We’re trying to eliminate places wherestanding water can be a breeding ground formosquitos,” said Warren County Freeholder
Director Edward J. Smith, liaison to thePCFA, as well as the Mosquito Commissionand the Health Department.
Smith said the commission identified dis-carded tires with water in them as a primebreeding ground for mosquitos, includingthe invasive tiger mosquito. Native to thetropical and subtropical regions of SoutheastAsia, the tiger mosquito is increasinglyfound in other areas including New Jersey,and can carry many diseases including yel-low fever and dengue fever.
“I’m very pleased with the progresswe’ve made toward addressing this prob-lem,” Smith remarked, adding, “I applaudthe fact that PCFA has stepped up to theplate on this.”
“The PCFA stands committed in oureffort in working to help reduce the diseasesspread by mosquitos, and to increase ourrecycling goals within the County,” saidPCFA Director of Operations JamesWilliams. The PCFA does not accept tiresfor disposal in the landfill, Smith said. “Thishas been a real problem for a lot of farmers,they’ve had to stockpile them on theirfarms.”
Fees are: automobile and SUV tires withor without rims up to 22 inches are $2.50each; commercial vehicle sizes with or with-out rims between 22.5 and 24 inches are $5each; farm equipment tires with or withoutrims between 24.5 and 50 inches are $10each. Tires cannot contain any debris withinthe interior or on the exterior, such as rocks,oil, dirt or any other foreign matter, andloads in excess of 20 tires will be rejected aswell.
Questions, call the PCFA at 908-453-2174 between 8 a.m. and 3:30 p.m., Mon.through Fri.

Upcoming Annual Golf Event Supports Kids With CancerBy Cheryl Conway
Nineteen years ago, at the age of six,Carlos Raymond Saavedra of Wayne was diagnosed with cancer
and told he would have less than four
months to live.When he was sent to St. Judes Children’s
Research Hospital in Memphis, Tenn. toundergo experimental treatment, along withseven other children, he beat the odds andwas the lone survivor.
To honor Carlos and his survival againstmedulloblastoma, a cancerous tumor foundin the brain stem, his family set up a founda-tion- The Carlos Raymond SaavedraFoundation (C.R.S.)- in his name to supportSt. Judes, cancer victims and their families.
The foundation’s annual golf outingfundraiser raises thousands of dollars for thiscause.
The Fifth Annual Carlos RaymondSaavedra Foundation Golf Outing is set forWed., Sept. 23, at the Preakness Valley Golf Course in Wayne. Shot gun start is at 9:30a.m.; dinner, drinks and silent auction willcontinue at 5 p.m. at the Carriage House.
Prizes will be awarded in different areaslike the longest drive and closest to the pin.
Cost is $150 per person, includes dinner;$85 without dinner; and $75 dinner only.Golf cart included. With 80 golfers last year,golf outing organizers are hoping to attract100 golfers this year.
The event is open to the public for bothmen and women. “Everyone’s invited; it’s agood fun day,” says Denise Caposella, orig-inal foundation founder and president.
Caposella and her husband, Michael,who chairs the golf event, started the foun-dation to honor their nephew, Carlos.
It was Oct. 11, 1996, when Carlos wasdiagnosed with cancer and underwent sever-al surgeries.
“After a 15 hour brain surgery proce-dure, the family was told he was bleeding to
death. So the doctors stopped the surgeryand closed him up. While everyone was dev-astated with the news, God gave CarlosRaymond a miracle and the bleeding mirac-ulously stopped.”
Carlos went to St. Judes Children’sResearch Hospital to undergo an experimen-tal protocol with seven other children, who“all died but him,” explains Caposella.Carlos was left “almost completely deaf”with some learning disabilities. His parents,
Linda and Carlos Sr., struggled to pay for allthe costs and relied heavily on donations.
“We started it in his honor to pay it for-ward because he was so fortunate,” saysCaposella. The foundation pays St. Judes tohelp other families pay for children battlingcancer, siblings activities and extra costssuch as gas, food, hotel.
Last year, for the first time, the founda-tion sent some kids to a summer camp inLong Island- Motivational RecoveryEnvironment- for kids with cancer and theirsiblings. Caposella hopes to send more kidsagain this summer to that camp, whereCarlos was a camp counselor last year.

Since the foundation was established,C.R.S. has donated $23,000 so far, with$11,000 to St. Judes; and the remaininghelping nine families in the U.S. and to the
campers.Carlos, the honorary chair of the founda-
tion, is “thrilled” to have the foundation. “Itgives him a sense of purpose; it gives him agood sense of being; he likes to pay it for-ward,” says Caposella.
Carlos started his own online hat compa-ny last year with his two younger sisters,Larraine and Natalia. The cancer treatmentshave left him bald and sensitive to otherswho do not have hair. For every hat that ispurchased, another hat is donated to a child
with cancer. Called Halo Hats, all kinds of hats are sold such as ski caps, golf hats, sunhats. He also provides the hats for eachgolfer at the C.R.S. Golf Outing and even
passed out hats to patients at St. Judes.A small foundation, the C.R.S. Golf
Outing is the only fundraiser held. Golf wasthe chosen event as Michael Caposella vol-unteers on the Paterson Fire Dept., and fig-ures since most firemen like to golf “heknew he could get firemen to go,” saysCaposella.
With such a good time had every year,“they say ‘I’m bringing back a four-somenext year,’” says Caposella. “We started itwith 50 golfers; it has grown.”

Fences can provide privacy andtransform backyards into calming
places to relax and unwind. But
fences also may lead to disputes with
neighbors if installation is not carried out
with etiquette. Always place the fence
within your property lines, which can bedetermined by examining a land survey
for your home. Inform your neighbors of
your intention to erect a fence, and give
any concerns they might have substantial
consideration. Face the more aesthetical-
ly appealing side of the fence outward to
the street and to neighbors' yards. Inaddition, maintain the fence once it is
installed so it does not become a neigh-
borhood eyesore that irks your neighbors.

Two organizations are working hard in the
Hackettstown area in recent weeks - and, really, for
many years total - to help veterans receive aid and
recognition for their bravery and sacrifice; and to help stu-dents move down their most favorable path in life.
The "Rolling Thunder" event was held on July 5 toraise awareness for veteran's rights, and the ongoing Teen
Nights are being held for Hackettstown students as a safe
haven and a good time during their younger years.
First, "Rolling Thunder," a ride and rally to "promote
POW/MIA awareness and veteran's rights," is a motorcy-cle ride which began in Belvidere, travelled through
Hackettstown and other sections of Warren County, and
then finished up once again in Belvidere. It was a free
event, but donations were appreciated, as veterans should
not be forgotten when it comes to their dedicated service.They have helped us and we need to do what we can to
help them.
See Rollingthunder-NJ3.org and be mindful of the
ways to help all veterans.
Also in Hackettstown, a group has been helping youths
lead a better lifestyle, and keeping them away from tur-moil. The Hackettstown Committee for Crime Prevention
(HCCP) has offered events and programs for many years
that provide a safe environment. These events and activi-
ties translate to good company and a good time for those
who attend.
The upcoming Hackettstown Committee for CrimePrevention (HCCP) Teen Night Pool Parties will be held
at the Hackettstown Pool, from 7-9 pm, on the following
remaining days: Thurs., July 23 and 30; and Aug. 6.
These pool parties are for students residing in
Hackettstown, or in the sending districts, and the HCCP
has been holding Teen Nights since 1994. This year, therewere pool parties held on: June 26, July 2, and July 7, and
they include a DJ, and dancing. They are open to middle
school-aged students as well as high school-aged students.
Lydia Ghachem, president of the committee, said a lot
of their work is done during the summer, but some is doneduring the school year too. For instance, the committee
will co-sponsor dances with students during the schoolyear, and the committee is still involved with the D.A.R.E.
(Drug Awareness Resistance Education) Program in
schools as well.
"So far, it's been a big success," Ghachem said, refer-ring to the many years of Teen Nights. It is "good to keep
the kids off the streets."
The events and programs like the dances held in the
schools have the goal of providing a good, safe time for
kids. With the upsetting news in the world nowadays,
these programs are definitely a good deed. Information
and registration forms for upcoming events are available
at Hackettstown.net.Some of the regulations are as follows: Registrants
must sign in for each Teen Night at the registration/sign in
table and are expected to remain for the entire evening,
and participants who leave will not be readmitted that
evening. Student ID is required for admission, and notes
will not be accepted after the first attendance.The HCCP representatives and security reserve the
right to deny a student admission, and those not registered
must do so at the registration/sign in table and be accom-
panied by a parent. Registrants will comply with the basic
rules of appropriate conduct and dress, and all rules,including pool rules, are strictly enforced. If the rules are
violated, HCCP representatives, police and/or securitywill deal with the situation. There is a zero tolerance for
drugs, alcohol, and weapons, including pocket knives.
The HCCP will not be held liable for injuries incurred
by the registrant at Teen Nights. Chaperones are notresponsible for personal belongings. No backpacks are
permitted. Cancellations due to inclement weather will be
announced at the pool as well as WRNJ if possible.

It was a very hot and muggy afternoonin mid-May but two individuals were
out there planting and tending their gar-
den. On closer observation, the moisture
was pouring down their faces and theirmovements were erratic from the heat. But,
that did not stop Lou and Ellen Paterno
from placing their plants in the ground.
“It is something I have been thinking
about for a long time,” said Lou.
There is a Community garden, locatedadjacent to Rutherfurd Hall in
Hackettstown and the school’s playground. This was initiated by the township
through a grant and is in the third year of
existence, gradually increasing in size. A
protective high fence surrounds the garden-
ing area with plots prepared in advance for
residents wishing to get “down and dirty”and release the tensions of life or just hope
A Community Garden Open To All for some fresh produce down the line.
The garden is open from May 1 into thefall. Renting a plot for planting is $40 a
season and water is supplied. Generally
known as an environmental campus, walk
up the macadam drive to the huge gothicdoors and above, the Rutherfurd Coat of
Arms.Large white oak and beech trees, more
than 100 years old, spread their branches
toward The Hall as if in a protective
embrace. The large patio, bedecked with
flora overlooks the Great Lawn, easing
down to the lake surrounded by a statepark. The chicken coop, with the cackling
hens, provides a curriculum outlet for the
children who sell the eggs.
Rutherfurd Hall is open for toursevery Wed. from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. for a $5
donation.Visitors are welcome to stroll the
grounds at any time. For further informa-
tion, contact Laurie Rapisardi, director, at
908-852-1894, ext. 134
Aperson’s mind can play a large
role in how quickly he or she is
able to lose weight. Exercise anddiet alone may not be enough, and posi-
tive thinking can provide the extra boost
some people need. A Harvard study
found that mind over matter may extendto weight loss as well. The study fol-
lowed 84 cleaning women, half of whom
were told that their physically demanding
jobs met the requi rements for exercise as
set by the Surgeon General, while the
other half weren’t given any information
about their activity level and calorie
burn. After a month’s time, researchersdiscovered that the group of women who
were told that their work activity wasgood for them reduced their body fat,
waist-to-hip ratio and body mass index.
These participants had not changed any-
thing else about their daily exercise and
eating habits. The other group of women
who were given no positive reinforce-ment did not lose any weight.

ing at home and abroad while connecting
with an outstanding young person.
Area resident and AFS volunteer, Sue
Fershing, whose family hosted more than
a dozen exchange students through AFS
since 1986, said “This is the most
rewarding thing we’ve ever done. We
love staying in touch with our AFSers,
who come back to visit us years later. It’s
not the end, it’s the beginning of a life-
long relationship.”
Host families provide a bed and
meals, share their daily lives with stu-
dents, and help guide and support stu-
dents as they would their own children.
Students come with full medical insur-
ance and personal spending money.
Families and their hosted students
receive ongoing support from AFS staff

Summer vacations don’t have to
involve trunks and suitcases, sport-
ing equipment or even stopping the
mail and newspaper delivery. Staycations
are becoming a common term where peo-ple enjoy their own neighborhoods and
communities during down time.
Backyard pools and community pools are
great staycation activities and can be a
safe and fun experience for all ages.According to the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention, there are three
big causes for unintentional drownings
for children 14 and younger: lack of
swimming ability, lack of barriers and
lack of supervision.
To avoid a tragic summer, reviewing
basic water safety tips is a smart way tostart off the pool season. Never leave lit-
tle ones unattended near water and chil-
dren should learn basic safety such asstaying away from pool drains, pipes and
other openings to avoid getting stuck and
never swim alone. It’s never too late tolearn to swim- everyone should know
how to and lessons are available at local
community pools, YMCAs or private
pools.
Neighborhood or backyard poolsdon’t have life guards like community
pools do. Keep CPR skills for children
Summer Swimming Safety 101and adults updated regularly. Install a
four-foot or taller fence around the pool-
some communities have specific require-ments. It’s a good idea to check with the
local building inspector to see what rules
apply to the neighborhood. Use self-clos-ing and self-latching gates, pool and gate
alarms and use a lockable safety cover.
Consider using a surface wave or under-water alarm. Especially with younger
kids, alarm doors and windows that face
the pool area. It’s great to invite the
neighborhood kids over but, don’t let the
kid/adult ratio get out of hand and neverleave any kids unsupervised.
Visiting the local community pool is a
great way to spend the summer. It’s fun for
all ages, a great way to meet other familiesand omits the worry and hassle of main-
taining a pool. The HackettstownCommunity Pool (HCP) is part of the
recreation department established in 1948
and offers something for everyone. The
pool is handicapped accessible and accepts
members and non-members. Admissionseason rates for residents are: family,
$105; individual, $50; senior citizen, $10.
Non Residents are welcome to join too.
Rates for non-resident family, $180; indi-
vidual, $100; senior citizen, $10. Daily,weekday, weekend and holiday passes are
available for residents and non-residents
and range in price from $2 to $10.The HCP is an outdoor pool that has
showers, locker rooms and a lifeguard
always on duty. It offers lap swimming,water exercise, open swim (recreational
swimming), private swim lessons and
lifeguard training classes. There are eight
lane lines to swim, a fun water slide and
several diving blocks. Adjacent to thepool area are several fields, baseball
fields and practice areas and a track and
field area for organized teams as well as
pick- up games or just to have fun.For more information on the HCP, call
908-852-4095. Their season started June20 and the pool is open seven days a
week from noon to 8 p.m.
Swimming is great exercise, fun and a
wonderful activity for all ages.
Reminding kids, friends and family of afew swimming safety tips will keep the
fun in summer. Safe swimming!
New Jersey Blood Services is con-
ducting local blood drives areawhich are open to the public. The
following drives are scheduled: July 24
at Madison Area YMCA, Madison, 2
p.m. to 8 p.m.; July 25 at Presbyterian
Church of Morris Plains, Morris Plains,8a.m. to 2 p.m.; July 27 at Knights of
Columbus 3665, Netcong, 3 p.m. to 9
p.m.; July 28 at Enterprise Drive,Rockaway, 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.; July 31 at
My Training Gym, Morristown, 8:30a.m. to 2:30 p.m.
New Jersey Blood Services, a division
of New York Blood Center (NYBC) is
asking for help to maintain an adequate
supply of all blood types, but especially
O-negative- the “universal” blood whichcan be transfused into anyone in an emer-
gency. In addition, hundreds of addition-
al blood drives need to be scheduled to
meet projected hospital demand. Currentinventory of several blood types is run-ning below the desired target level.
“It’s simple: hospital patient demand
for blood often outpaces our best efforts
to recruit donors and schedule blood
drives,” said NYBC Executive Director
of Donor Recruitment Andrea Cefarelli.“There are always reasons but we have to
overcome that for the sake of hospital
patients who need us.”
“This is one of the toughest times of
the year,” Cefarelli added. “We’re askingfor our dedicated supporters to roll up
their sleeves to make sure we’re able to
provide our hospital partners with what-
ever they need to take care of their
patients.”
Blood products have a short shelf life,
from five to 42 days, so constant replen-
ishment is necessary. Each and every day
there are patients who depend on thetransfusion of red blood cells, platelets
and plasma to stay alive. But blood and
blood products can’t be manufactured.
They can only come from volunteer
blood donors who take an hour to attenda blood drive or visit a donor center.
To donate blood or for information on
how to organize a blood drive, call 1-
800-933-2566; visit: www.nybloodcen-
ter.org.
If you cannot donate but still wish toparticipate in bringing crucial blood
products to patients in need, ask someone
to donate, or consider volunteering at a
local blood drive.
Any company, community organiza-
tion, place of worship, or individual mayhost a blood drive.
NYBC also offers special community
service scholarships for students who
organize community blood drives during
summer months. Blood donors receivefree mini-medical exams on site includ-
ing information about their temperature,
blood pressure and hematocrit level.
Eligible donors include those people at
least age 16 (with parental permission orconsent), who weigh a minimum of 110
pounds, are in good health and meet all
Food & Drug Administration and NY or
NJ State Department of Health donor cri-
teria. People over 75 may donate with adoctor's note.

Going on a trip, whether business or pleasure,
can be stressful especially if it involves drivingto the airport, deciding where to park in crowd-
ed lots, remembering where the car is parked, getting
the luggage out of the vehicle and then finding the
means to get to the gate in time for a flight.
A lot of these concerns can be avoided for those driv-
ers who choose Vista Parking for their off-site parking
destination. Located directly across Newark Liberty
International Airport, customers can park their car valet
style in a secure 24-hour access lot before they even get
to the busy airport and then receive car-door to airport-
door service any time of day without any wait.
Family operated and owned since 1988, Vista
Parking has been providing the most convenient means
of off-site parking for travelers who use Newark
Airport.
The service at Vista Parking is “much more conven-
ient than long-term because it’s a door to door service,”
says the company president. “Customers are immediate-
ly greeted by a van; there’s no waiting for shuttles, not
waiting every 15 minutes. We take you on demand; you
come in, we are ready to go.” Unlike other lots, “Theyare not walking through long dark parking lots in snow
or far away.”
What used to be four or five lots at Newark Airport
has grown, but at Vista Parking customers can park
before they get to the airport.
“We are right there,” says the owner. “We are located
right when you come off 78; right at the end of the exit,
right at exit 58B; or exit 14 off of the NJ Turnpike”
located at the Howard Johnson’s Hotel in Newark.
At Vista Parking, “award winning service is provid-
ed;” cars are kept in a safe and secure lot; and service is
available 24 hours a day.
Customers get free shuttle service to the airport, just a
three minute ride. “We drop you off right at the terminal
and pick you up right at the terminal.” Also offered are
corporate rates, fast check out, all valet parking, frequent
parker rewards club, luggage assistance and security.
All size vehicles are welcome and there is no mini-
mum to days parked.
“We are very customer service friendly,” he said.
“Once you pull in you don’t have to pull your bags. Weclean off your car when it snows. There’s nothing worse
than coming home from the Bahamas and there’s two
feet of snow on your car. We make it so simple for you.
It starts and finishes so nice. This is valet; the car is
brought up to you, warmed up on a cool night.”
According to the website, “At Vista Parking, you
won’t have to worry about navigating massive parking
garages or where you parked your car. All you have to
do is call the number on your claim ticket and one of our
shuttles will be dispatched to meet you at the arrival ter-
minal and return you to your vehicle.”
At random parking lots, cars can be stolen, misplaced,
sometimes people forget where they parked their car or
what row they are in. “If you have a problem with your
car when you get back, it just brings aggravation.”
Cost to park at Vista Parking is reasonably priced.
For more information, go to www.vistaparking.com or
call 973-263-2009 or 973 465 9400.

Morris County Operation Smile
(MCOPSMILE) exceeded their
fundraising goal for this schoolyear and raised enough money to fund
free surgeries for 17 children.
Founded in 2011, MCOPSMILE is a
student chapter of Operation Smile, a
non-profit volunteer medical serviceorganization dedicated to providing free
reconstructive surgery for children in the
U.S. and around the world. This interna-
tional organization is made up of doctors,
students, and volunteers who donate theirtime and skills to provide free surgeries to
disadvantaged children in over 60 coun-
tries.
MCOPSMILE comprises studentsfrom Randolph High School, Morris
Knolls High School, Mountain LakesHigh School and Morris County
Vocational High School.
"Our goal was to raise enough money
to provide surgery for 10 children," said
Patrick Santorella-Doyle, president andco-founder of MCOPSMILE, "so we
sponsored three fundraisers- Game Night,
Educational Flyer Ad Sales and theMCOPSMILE Annual Car Wash- and
raised $4,080, surpassing our goal by
$1,680, which means we can fund life-
changing surgery for 17 children."
Santorella-Doyle explained that eachsurgery costs only $240 because everyone
involved volunteers their time and servic-
es.
"We function without an operating
budget," said Santorella-Doyle, "whichmeans we donate 100 percent of the
money we raise, unlike many other non-
profit organizations."
According to Alyssa Lenac,
MCOPSMILE vice president, some non-
profits use a percentage of the moneythey raise to cover administrative expens-
es.
"But we don't do that," said Lenac. The
local community generously supports
MCOPSMILE; for example, this year,Kinko's of Denville printed
MCOPSMILE's educational flyers for
free, and this is the third consecutive year
that Mama Catarina's of Randolph donat-
Operation Smile Brings More Smiles For Children Surgeries
ed pizza for the car wash so the student
volunteers who wash cars all day canhave lunch.
MCOPSMILE does more than help
disadvantaged children get life-saving
surgeries. It also allows high school stu-
dent volunteers to, sharpen leadershipskills, develop lifelong commitments to
serving others, and learn the importance
of multiculturalism and social awareness
while helping to improve our world."It's been a good year," said
Santorella-Doyle, "and it's a great feeling
to know we are helping children to get the
surgery they so desperately need."

ber to [email protected].

Four days at the end of May were
designated by Morris Habitat as
“Women Build” days. Groups of 15 women came out each day to Morris
Habitat build sites in Morristown to par-
ticipate in a morning workshop and thenwork at the site for the remainder of the
day.The response to this special day, the first
time Morris Habitat has participated in
Habitat International's National Women
Build, was overwhelming. Not only were
all the slots available filled, there were15 women placed on a waiting list.
Amazingly, except for the "Habitat
Faithful" volunteers that come out on a
regular basis to help at the Morris Habitat
build sites, all of the women were first
time volunteers at a Habitat constructionsite. It was a very spirited and lively
group and Morris Habitat hopes to see
many of them back volunteering again in
the future.
When asked how she felt about this“Women Build,” Stephanie Buonarota,
director of Volunteer Services, said
"Fantastic! These women showed you
don't have to have brawn and muscle to
build. They all came together, different
ages, different walks of life, all united inone goal, to build a home for a family in
need."
The Execu|Search Group's Women's
Network from their Parsippany location
came out to the build with 13 of theirmembers. Each donned a hard hat and a
special “Women Build” t-shirt and was
hammering away by the afternoon. The
group finished the day with a grea feeling
of accomplishment.Morris Habitat wants to express its
thanks to Spencer Reckford, construction
supervisor and the Newark and Morris
Habitat Faithful for conducting the train-
ing workshops to help these new volun-
teers, as well as, working alongside the
women. Thanks also goes to Home Depotfor donating the framing hammers used
at the workshops and Lowe's for the great
“Women Build” t-shirts.
This event was a kick-off in prepara-tion for a full-scale “Women Build” at
one of the houses at Harding Avenue in
Dover. For more information, contact

A Kitchen Staple: Ol ive Oil Offers Nutrition, Fle xibility
You may be surprised to learn that cooking witholive oil is a simple way to add heart-healthy“good” fats to your diet. In fact, the health bene-
fits, flavor and versatility of olive oil are all good reasonsthat olive oil is a staple in many kitchens.
Not only can you replace other oils in recipes witholive oil (or extra virgin olive oil for added flavor), inmany recipes you can also replace butter with olive oil toreduce saturated fat, cholesterol and calories.
Studies show that your body absorbs nutrients fromgreens and vegetables better when they are consumedwith a monounsaturated fat such as olive oil. These
recipes help you get the most out of your veggies, andenjoy a decadent dessert too. Learn more atwww.aboutoliveoil.org.Simple SubstitutionsMargarine/Butter Olive Oil1 teaspoon 3/4 teaspoon1 tablespoon 2 1/4 teaspoons2 tablespoons 1 1/2 tablespoons1/4 cup 3 tablespoons1/3 cup 1/4 cup
