Noah’s Ark Gives Second Chance To Puppy Mill Dogs If interested in adopting a dog, please call us at 973347-0378 or visit us at noahsarknj.org.

Chemistry - It's Elemental

N

oah’s Ark is devoted to finding new homes for homeless pets. Some dogs are adopted quickly while others stay behind waiting for their future home. For two dogs, Sonya and Karma, their futures were bleak during their stays at puppy mills. Puppy mills, whose focus is solely on reproduction, often kill the mother dog after she can no longer reproduce. The puppies and dogs who are not sold are also killed to make space. Last month 6year old Sonya, now named Martini, was adopted by Rodger and Debbie Chabak. Martini had been used at a puppy mill for breeding purposes. Martini showed signs of neglect and abuse at the puppy mill and needed time to adapt to her surrounding. Luckily, she was saved and brought to Noah’s Ark to be adopted. Now living at home with her new family, she still needs time to acclimate to her surroundings. Her new owner Debbie Chabak said, “She had obviously been abused and is very skittish but is coming around, slowly. Her jaw was broken at the puppy mill she was rescued from. We love her and look forward to her trusting us and not hiding her face when we walk into the room. Another lucky dog is 10 year old Karma who also was saved from a puppy mill. Karma was adopted by longtime volunteer Gail Reilly. Like Martini, Karma was also very timid and was hesitant to trust people. Her neglect was obvious; with only one tooth and a hip problem, Karma is only able to eat soft food and needed to rest her injured hip often. Karma’s had been sponsored by Gail for some time in an attempt to ease her into trusting people and preparing her for adoption. Gail would house Karma and treat her like a pet to equip her for her future. Her first night in her home was eventful. Gail said, “Karma howled for about an hour and a half before finally falling to sleep.” Slowly, Karma started trusting Gail and became acclimated to her surroundings. Gail would bring Karma back to the shelter hoping she would be adopted. Unfortunately, it seemed no one was interested in her. Rather than let her stay at the shelter, Gail decided to make her a permanent addition to her home. “I just

Here a budding young chemist learns from Miss Liz how to get his silver clean the cheap and easy way. wanted to let her live out the rest of her life as a normal dog. She’s trusting now and enjoys when I rock her to sleep.” Unfortunately, not every dog has the same luck as Martini and Karma. As stated on the Humane Society of the United States at hsus.org, many pet stores purchase pup-

pies from mills. At Noah’s Ark, we hope people will consider adopting our dogs. Our dogs are all in need of a second chance and loving family. If interested in adopting a dog, please call us at 973-347-0378 or visit us at noahsarknj.org.

Noah’s Ark Teaming with Iams for “Home 4 the Holiday” Campaign

I

ams for the second straight year will be hosting their pet adoption campaign to benefit homeless animals. Iams asks pet shelters nationwide to participate in their campaign to promote adopting pets from local shelters. Last year, Iams goal was to adopt 1 million pets from shelters. This year however, the bar has been raised to 1.5 million pet adoptions between October 1, 2009 and January 5, 2010. Noah’s Ark participated in the program last year and will once again team with Helen Woodward the president of the “Home 4 the Holiday” campaign to help reach the 1.5 million pet adoption mark. Last year, Noah’s Ark helped the campaign by adopting 213 animals from their small Ledgewood shelter. This year they

hope to exceed that number and find all of their homeless dogs and cats a new family and home to spend their holidays with. Noah’s Ark is a non-profit organization caring for animals for more than 40 years. We operate a limited admission facility that operates under an “adoption focused” philosophy, meaning no adoptable pet will be euthanized due to age, breed, lack of space or modifiable behavioral issues. Noah’s Ark also operates a Spay-Neuter Hotline that people can call for coupons for reduced spay or neuter services from a network of veterinarians in the community. We rely on donations from the public to support our work. For more information, visit www.NoahsArkNJ.org or call (973) 3474499.

Learn To Dance “Like A Star” At Arthur Murray Studios By Cheryl Conway et ready to put on your dancing shoes and waltz on over to the grand re-opening of the new Arthur Murray Dance Studio of Roxbury. The studio located at the Roxbury Mall for the past six years is moving to a larger facility at Route 10 East in Ledgewood. Franchise owner Danny Villavicencio of Landing says he plans to be in the new building by December 1 after he moves his dance floor and equipment. “With the popularity of people dancing, we needed a bigger facility,” says Villavicencio. The new facility – located ? mile east of the old Ledgewood Circle right next to Java Joe Bagels ? is 5,700 square feet compared to the existing studio of 4,200 square feet at Sunset Strip. Villavicencio says he hopes that the new building attracts more students since it will have better visibility located on the highway. The existing facility “it’s just hidden back there too much.” The Arthur Murray Dance Studio of Roxbury is one of 50 studios in the tri-state area and one of five studios in Morris County. A couple hundred students - 70 percent are couples 32-70 years old - from Morris and Sussex counties are current members at the Roxbury studio. Other nearby locations include Kenvil, Chatham, Denville and Ridgewood. The franchise – Arthur Murray International began in 1912 and has grown to about 300 studios worldwide. Partner-dancing featuring ballroom, social and Latin dances such as the tango, waltz, cha-cha, swing, merengue, jitterbug and country-western are taught at Arthur Murray

G

Dance Studio. There are currently seven full-time dance instructors but Villavicencio plans to hire four more to handle his growing enrollment. A Latin-dance exercise program- Core Rhythms- is also offered at the studio Monday, Wednesday and Saturday mornings. The calorie-burning core flexion aerobic workout has proven to shed “an inch per week” in students’ waists, he says. For the grand re-opening, new students can enjoy a free first-week trial to dance at Arthur Murray Dance Studio of Roxbury. Other dance studios do not compare to Arthur Murray, says Villavicencio. Arthur Murray Studios and its instructors “are the innovators and the most experienced,” he says. “It is the household name. Our teachers are certified and recertified” and they are passionate about dancing and teaching others, especially Villavicencio. Born in Ecuador, South America, Villavicencio says “I’ve been dancing all my life. When you grow up in a Latin household and you’re the only son, your mother drags you out to the floor and has me dance with her. Ever since then, I’ve loved it.” When he was 15, he asked his mother to teach him, and ever since he has not stopped dancing. Villavicencio, 42, grew up in Dover when his family immigrated to the U.S. when he was one-year old. He had left college in 1990 and his studies to be an engineer to follow his “real passion.” While attending University of North Florida in Jacksonville, FL, Villavicencio got a job teaching dance at

a nearby Arthur Murray Dance Studio in 1990. “I took one step into that studio and I knew what I wanted to do,” he describes. Six months later, he danced in his first competition and continued to compete all over the world specializing in American-rhythm style. “Now I pass all of my knowledge to people I teach,” he says. “I train people how to teach.” Villavicencio opened his first Arthur Murray Dance Studio in Denville in 2000 which he no longer owns. He opened the Roxbury studio in 2004. “You make a difference in people’s lives,” he says about his job. Sometimes when older couples join, they do not look “too happy,” he describes. “They seem like there’s a plateau in their relationship.” But by dancing together, “They seem to be rekindling something. We re-spark their relationship. They seem like they have a makeover. They start losing weight; they change their clothes, get haircuts, new hairdos. They feel better about themselves.” In addition to running the Roxbury studio, Villavicencio hosts the World Salsa Championship – Caribbean Dancesport Classic. In his 11th year, this year’s competition was just held Nov. 4-8 in San Juan, Puerto Rico, and attracted 5,000 entrees. Competitors were aged 5-90 from all over the world such as Russia, Japan, Israel, Australia and the U.S. For more information about the Arthur Murray Dance Studio of Roxbury, call 973-252-9600 or visit www.learntodancenj.com.

Netcong’s Grandma Rush’s Pies By Elsie Walker irst, there was Mrs. Smith pies. Next came Sara Lee. Then, along came another name to the pie world: Grandma Rush. On November 21st from 10:00am to 2:00pm and November 22nd from 10:00am to noon, the 10th annual Grandma Rush’s pie sale will be held at the Stanhope United Methodist Church at #2 Route 183 in Netcong. A variety of homemade pies will be sold for $8.50 each.

“Pecan, apple, and raisin cream, “ she said. Raisin cream is unusual. When asked about it, she shared, “it is my mother’s recipe”. Pies are so associated with Rush, that her son, local artist David Rush, did a painting with the theme of his mom’s apple pie. It takes many pies for the sale and that keeps Rush and the other bakers busy. Rush shared that sometimes the bakers find that the first day sales deplete their sup-

plies, so they go home and make more to sell the second day of the sale. The Rev. Tom Kinter, pastor of the church, noted that the sale is a win-win-win event. The sale is a fundraiser for the church. Members of the church who enjoy baking get to share that love of baking through creating pies for the sale and sharing them with those who buy them. The community wins by getting some great holiday pies. “They’re um, um, good,” said Kinter.

If you’re wondering if there really is a Grandma Rush, there certainly is. She’s 89 year old Netcong resident Marion Rush. When the pie sale was first started, the pastor of the church at that time thought it needed a name, a persona, and that became Marion Rush. However, Grandma Rush doesn’t just lend her name to the sale, she makes pies for it, too (along with other members of the church). What are her favorite types of pie?

All Are Welcome at Community Thanksgiving Celebration By Kathryn Davis or most Americans, Thanksgiving is a day shared with friends and family, gathering around the dining room table, and enjoying a traditional dinner and warm conversation. Unfortunately, there are those for whom the holiday is a day of loneliness and frustration. For some, high gas prices and travel costs make spending the day with loved ones impossible. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, there are over 13 million Americans who are widowed, and another 23 million who are divorced. Today, there are 37 million Americans over the age of 65. These statistics do not mean that a lonely holiday is inevitable. Caring individuals and groups all over the nation are holding community dinners. Locally, the Trinity United Methodist Church in Hackettstown is holding their third annual Thanksgiving dinner this year at the church in Starr Hall from noon until 2:30 p.m. “We started this mission because we thought there was a need in the community and church for people to have a place to go on Thanksgiving so they are not alone,” explains Janice Paulussen, event coordinator. “This is a time of year to be with people and have great fellowship.” “It really was a grass roots idea. It came from the Missions Ministry Team,” explains Rev. Dr. Frank Fowler, Senior Pastor at the church. “We do it because we want to share God’s love. We want to provide a place of community, which is at the heart of what our church does. It’s just a natural thing for us to open our doors to the community on Thanksgiving Day.” The dinner is open to anyone in the community, free of charge. “It gives people the opportunity to have a delicious dinner and be around friendly people,” Paulussen notes. The dinner provides more than just a good meal. “It’s not just for the economically struggling,” notes Dr. Fowler. “Some people just want to have their dinner in the community of the church for the day.” For those who don’t want to spend the holiday alone, he adds, “Need a family? Trinity’s offering one.” As in past years, Linda Gonia, head chef at Centenary College and a parishioner at Trinity, will oversee food preparation. The dinner, which is held buffet-style, includes traditional foods such as turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, and, of course, a variety of breads and pies. Paulussen recalls the first year the dinner was held. One family that attended did not speak English. A high school volunteer who was serving that day sat down to speak with them, using the Spanish she’d learned in school. Paulussen also remembers the fellowship, and even one couple slow dancing. The second year she saw a better turnout, more volunteers, and more donations. This year, Paulussen is optimistic. Feedback has always been “very positive,” explains Paulussen. “Everyone has said the food is really great, and the fellowship among the guests and volunteers is like a family dinner.” Dr. Fowler recalls one particular incident. “I was at the dinner last year, just basically visiting with people. A couple of young men came in. They said their mother was dying and asked me to come to their home. There was a large family gathering for Thanksgiving dinner, and she had taken a turn for the worse that day. I went with them and continued on page 16

I stayed with her and prayed with the family. She passed on a few days later.” A community event like this allows people inspiring ways to connect. Observes Dr. Fowler, “Because we opened our doors, it gave us an opportunity to offer God’s love in an unexpected way. A tremendous amount of planning goes

into an event like this. Paulussen works behind the scenes for weeks, soliciting donations, organizing, and recruiting volunteers. Food is purchased last to ensure freshness. Sometimes, however, things don’t work out as planned. “Last year we had a donation of about ten turkeys from a local car dealership that really saved the day. We didn’t get enough donations, so we would have had to purchase them. God is always at work,” says

The Nativity Story Told A New Way By Elsie Walker harp proclaims the coming of angels, an innkeeper tells of turning a young couple away, King Herod raps in his court about the baby born to be the Messiah, and hands skillfully sign the Magnificant, the words of Mary as she shares how she feels about being the mother to the savior of the world. These are a few of the scenes from the nativity story to be presented at the annual Birth of Christ Told Through the Arts. The program will be held on December 6th at 4:30pm at the Port Morris United Methodist Church at 296 Center Street in Landing (parking at the rear on Main Street). After the program, a baked goods and craft sale will be held to benefit some needy families in the area. Representatives from seven area churches will share their talents and present scenes from the nativity story. The churches participating include: Port Morris United Methodist Church (Roxbury), St. James Episcopal Church (Hackettstown), Drakestown United Methodist Church (Budd Lake), St. Michael’s Roman Catholic Church (Netcong), Flanders United Methodist Church (Flanders), Grace, The Church on the Mount (Netcong), and Stanhope United Methodist Church (Netcong). Also participating will be the

A

director of the Mustard Seed Pre-School (Chester). The style of the scenes ranges from harp music to rap. Harpist Linda Plansoen, from Grace the Church on the Mount, will provide the sounds of angels. The youth of the host church will present the scene at Herod’s court through rap. The church’s choir will provide a variety of original songs by Richard Boyer, Jr., the choir’s director and well-known in the area for his work at Pax Amicus. Puppeteer Tina Berchak and helpers will portray the manger scene. The St. James Players, a chancel drama group, will appear at several junctions as shepherds and as wise men. The church’s Intergenerational Bell Choir(director, Louise Olshan) and Youth Choir (director Pam Laura)will also perform. The rector of St. James, the Rev. Dr. Cathy Deats will present the Magnificant, the words of Mary, in a unique way. A former interpreter for the deaf, Deats will sign the words as they are read. Pianist Jack Amato from St. Michael’s will solo on “Silent Night” and accompany vocal soloists from St. Michael’s on “Mary Did You Know”, “What Child Is This?” and “O Holy Night”.

George Kolar, known as the “Poet Laurette of Stanhope United Methodist Church” will be the innkeeper and share a new original poem written for the program. Representing Flanders United Methodist Church will be Cathy Bingham singing “Beautiful Star of Bethlehem” accompanied by her husband, John. A new addition this year, singers from the Drakestown United Methodist Church, will perform two pieces: “One Small Child” and “Emmanuel (Hallowed Manger Ground)”.

"I think this is a wonderful event. All of us in this ecumenical community worship the same God. Although anytime is a great time for us to join together and share our faith, it seems more wonderful as we do that during the Christmas season through this program. What better way to celebrate the birth of Christ. It is an honor for our church to host this event each year. We hope this tradition will never end," said Judy Todt, pastor of the Port Morris United Methodist Church.

Adopt a Head Start Family for the Holidays

E

ach year, generous Morris County corporate groups, churches and individuals celebrate the holidays in a very special way. They adopt one or several low-income Head Start families. Filled with the holiday spirit, they purchase gifts for the family from lists supplied by Head Start. Items on the list may include a child’s winter jacket, a doll, or household items such as towels or bedding. A Head Start family of four has an income of $22,050 or less. Affording life in Morris County on such an income is extremely difficult. In most instances, rent and food eat up almost all of the family’s income. Holidays are not joyous occasions when you can’t afford to buy your children the things they need, let alone those they want. Head Start is urgently seeking groups and individuals who will make our families’ holidays brighter by purchasing holiday gifts for them. To adopt a family, please

contact Adela Hernandez, Family & Community Partnerships Manager, at (973) 989-9052. The Head Start Community Program of Morris County, Inc. Head Start is a nonprofit organization that provides a free, comprehensive program for low-income Morris County preschoolers and their families. The program teaches the skills that lead 2-adopt a head start family for the holidays to successful school experiences for children and offers support services that lead to self-sufficiency for families. Head Start serves children and families who live anywhere in Morris County through sites in Dover and Morristown. The nonprofit agency is funded by the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services, United Way of Morris County, the State of NJ, foundation grants, local community organizations and individual donations.

Welcome Back Waterloo! by Raymond Frey few weeks ago I attended a teacher’s workshop at Waterloo Village, and heard the good news that it will be reopening for tours for school children next year. So many people in our area have fond memories of their school field trip to Waterloo. Unlike colonial villages like Sturbridge in Massachusetts and Colonial Williamsburg in Virginia, Waterloo was a real town. The iron forge made gun barrels for Washington’s Continental Army. In the 1830’s, the village was a busy stop on the Morris Canal, as barges loaded with coal from Pennsylvania slowly made the 100mile trip from Phillipsburg to Jersey City. The railroad doomed the canal in the 1920’s, and by the time of the Great Depression, Waterloo was a ghost town. It was purchased by Percival Leach and Louis Gualandi in 1946. They brought it back to life by turning it into a living history museum and a showcase for young musicians. Opened in 1964, there were thirty original buildings that dated from the 1740’s to the nineteenth century. In the 1980’s the village hosted the Waterloo Festival and School of Music. Famous musicians from all over the world came to give concerts, attracting thousands of people. The Beach Boys, James Taylor, Willie Nelson, and Judy Collins are some of the stars who performed there, as well as symphony orchestras. Later, an annual poetry festival was held. In recent years, it fell on hard times. Run by the Waterloo Foundation for the Arts since the 1970’s, the State of New Jersey jointly owned the land, which was a part of Allamuchy State Park. In 2006, the state failed to renew Waterloo’s lease and the village was closed. By that time, many buildings were badly in need of repair. In 2007,

A

the state took over operations. But then a court fight began. The Waterloo Foundation claimed it owned all of the historic artifacts and wanted to auction them off to pay their debts. The state said they belonged to the people of New Jersey. While the lawsuit was going on, artifacts were stored in a tractor trailer. In October of 2008, a judge ordered that the items be put up for auction, the money going to the foundation. Members of the Canal Society of New Jersey and concerned citizens pooled their money and bought back most of the historic items, returning them to the village. Last year, the Department of Environmental Protection tried to find a private organization to run Waterloo, but there were no takers. The state spent over $600,000 to try to save the buildings, and now hopes the tours next year will bring in enough money to keep things going. For me, the most important part of Waterloo is the Indian village. Built in 1988 by Herbert Kraft, an expert on the Lenape Indians, it has been beautifully restored by his son, John. It sits on an island in the Musconetcong River, and is truly a journey back in time. On the day of the workshop, I followed a group of teachers there. Light rain was falling and leaves were slowly drifting down from the trees. And for just a moment, the bustle of modern life faded away. Standing in the middle of the village, I could imagine myself living among these people, busily preparing for the winter ahead. When it opens next year, take your children and grandchildren there. Help support and preserve this historic gem, right in our own backyard. Raymond Frey is a history professor at Centenary College in Hackettstown, New Jersey.
