Evesham Township School District hosts 21st annual event May 12
By ZANE CLARK
The Sun
The Evesham Township Municipal building is used to housing council meetings and court
cases, but on May 12, the building took on the additional re-

sponsibilities of a full-blown art


gallery when the Evesham
Township School District held
the opening night for its 21st annual Eyes on Art show.
From May 12-21, the works of
hundreds of students from the
districts elementary and middle

schools will be on display for


students, families and members
of the community to enjoy.
ETSD Superintendent John
Scavelli Jr. said the annual show
always provides an important

On Monday, May 11 in the


Lenape Auditorium, 37 Lenape
Regional High School District
seniors were inaugurated into an
elite group, the U.S. armed services.
There are about 2.2 million citizens active in the U.S. armed services. This equates to less than 1
percent of the countrys population, and year-by-year, this number continues to shrink.
As the class of 2015, seniors
enjoy their final days before graduation, preparing to embark on a
new chapter of their life that in-

cludes a new intimidating pressure the unknown.


Tonights students have the
added pressure of being a part of
something much bigger than
theyve ever been a part of before, Superintendent of Schools
Carol Birnbohm said. Our students will not only be representing themselves, but they will be
representing their school, their
community, their family and now
the United States of America.
The keynote speaker was Lt.
Col. Justin C. Schaeffer of the
Army Acquisition Corps and Arlington National Cemetery.

Volunteering is a big part of

Russell Bauers life. Bauer is an


EMT for the Tabernacle Rescue
Squad and is also an Eagle Scout.
Last November, the Tabernacle
community was in mourning
after 44-year-old mother Jeaninne
LePage shot her three children
before turning the gun on herself.
To help the community heal,
Bauer organized a dinner to
honor first responders in the
township.
Stepping up to the plate was
Russell Bauer, Seneca Principal
Jeff Spector said. He said why
dont we recognize the volunteers?
Tabernacles first responders
were recognized for their efforts
in December. In turn, Bauer was
one of four students recognized
last Wednesday.
The Lenape Regional High
School District honored one student from each of its high schools
as part of its annual volunteer
recognition night at last Wednesdays board of education meeting.
Each May, the board holds this
special ceremony to honor one
student from each high school
chosen for the Student Volunteer
Award.
Director of programs and planning Chris Heilig said the district
decided to put a focus on promoting volunteerism within the
school when constructing a longrange plan about six years ago.
Part of the plan included the annual student volunteer awards,
an intensive nomination and selection process where a committee from each school reads
through resumes, profiles and applications to select one winner
each.
Cherokee
winner
Gianna
Thornton is the epitome of an involved volunteer. She has registered more than 1,000 hours of
service during her high school career and has helped organize a
Stockings for Kids fundraiser for
the last five years. Cherokee Principal Donna Charlesworth said
Thorntons resilience and positive attitude were a big reason she
was selected.
Thornton was excited when

GIANNA THORNTON
she learned she was chosen. She
doesnt just volunteer because its
the right thing to do. She likes to
volunteer because its fun.
I think its cool because you
can make people happy, and its
rewarding to yourself, too,
Thornton said.
In some cases, volunteering
runs in the family. Shawnee winner Catherine ORorke is the second person in her family selected
for the Student Volunteer Award.
Her brother Matthew was selected in 2013.
In her essay, Caty talked about
how volunteerism is in her
blood,
Shawnee
Principal
Matthew Campbell said.
Catherine earned the award
through the many food and collection drives she has run for the
Food Bank of Southern New Jersey, Cedar Run Wildlife Refuge
and Paws Farm. A member of the
dance team, ORorke also teaches
dance to younger children in her
free time.
Jacob Demree, the student volunteer of the year from Lenape,
has volunteered in many organizations from churches to homeless shelters. This year, he played
a key role in organizing a National Honor Society lawn cleanup at
Holiday Village.

Memorial Day

108 Kings Highway East


Haddonfield, NJ 08033
856-427-0933

Three-day weekend or a return to a traditional day of remembrance?

Dan McDonough Jr.


chairman of elauwit media

e re all familiar with Memorial Day. We know that it


is a day set aside to honor
the brave men and women who made
the ultimate sacrifice to protect our
country and the freedom we have.
And we know that it is celebrated on
the last Monday in May, thereby creating a three-day weekend for most.
Maybe it shouldnt be that way.
Back when Memorial Day was first
established during the Civil War era, it
was observed on May 30. It had its own
special day, which, many will argue,
kept the focus on the meaning of the
day.
They have a point.
When one thinks of Memorial Day
these days, its easy to lose focus.
There are Memorial Day sales at

Holiday weekend distracts


Memorial Day shouldnt be about sales
or heading to the beach. It should be
about honoring those who died serving
this country. How do you reflect on
Memorial Day?

stores and the kick-off to summer


sentiment. That people have three
days off often overshadows what the
spirit of Memorial Day is all about.
We dont want to sound completely
negative. Many communities still take
pride in holding a thoughtful, meaningful Memorial Day ceremony
and/or parade. We still see flags displayed. We still see a lot of people take
time to honor those who died serving
our country.
But we also cant help but think that

lumping Memorial Day into a threeday weekend has diminished the


meaning of the day at least somewhat. There are too many distractions.
How many of us have made Memorial
Day weekend plans that have absolutely nothing to do with honoring the
meaning of the day?
Memorial Day should be special. It
should be a time when every American reflects on the sacrifices made on
his or her behalf and takes the time to
pay proper respect. Nothing should
distract from those sentiments.
Will the three-day weekend be replaced with a move back to May 30?
Doubtful. Its going to be up to each individual to cut through the clutter and
honor those who made the ultimate
sacrifice.

Council approves redevelopers for apartment


projects along Route 70 and Main Street
By ZANE CLARK
The Sun
Evesham Townships work toward redeveloping and rehabilitating properties
throughout the township took another step
forward at its most recent town council
meeting when council approved the designation of master redevelopers for two properties that have been targets of the township for years.
The first property is a redevelopment
project along Route 70 near the EveshamMedford border commonly referred to as
the Aristone Tract, where developer Art
Corsini of Fieldstone Associates, known
for having built the Marlton Gateway
Apartments where the townships old municipal building once stood, plans to build
264 residential apartments, with 6,000

square feet of retail space.


The other property is a rehabilitation
project commonly referred to as the old
bank building on Main Street near Cooper
Avenue, where redeveloper Bob Meyer of
MJ Associates plans to build 24 apartments
and 4,000 square feet of commercial space.
According to township director of community development Nancy Jamanow, letters were originally sent to the property
owners in early January 2013, which started a process spanning 11 planning board
meetings and 20 township council meetings where redevelopment was discussed.
Were finally seeing the fruits of the
labors of over two years of work, Jamanow said.
Corsini said the 264 apartment plan
along Route 70, entitled Barclay-Chase at
Marlton, would entail multiple buildings,

four of which would be podium style buildings with parking on the first floor and
three floors of residential space above.
Another building would be mixed-use
with retail and a resident service area,
which would front Route 70, also with parking on the first level and three floors of residential above.
An additional two buildings would consist of two floors of residential space and
parking garages.
Corsini said he estimates that rental
prices for one-bedroom apartments would
be around $1,400 per month, while the twobedroom apartments would fetch somewhere between $1,600 and $2,000 per month.
With his background in real estate, titles
and insurances, Mayor Randy Brown said

would have 24 apartments


through two-and-a-half stories,
with a third floor disguised with a
roof dormer, and the property
would also have eight detached
garage units and 4,000 square feet
of commercial space.
Also included in plans for the
property was a section of offstreet parking, as outlined by the
townships year 2020 vision
plan.
It was adamant about creating
a walkable space on Main Street
to try to generate walkable traffic
and have the availability of park-

ing on Main Street to create some


vibrancy, Meyer said.
Evesham Township manager
Tom Czerniecki said on-street
parking is critical to retail success as it provides the opportunity to quickly look into a store, pull
up to a front parking spot and
enter the store.
Czerniecki also said the parking was a safety enhancement for
pedestrians, which was present in
most historic towns.
It creates a barrier and it naturally slows traffic down, Czerniecki said.

opportunity for the district to display the talents of its students to


the community as a whole.
People can come in over the
next two weeks and see what the
kids have to offer, Scavelli said.
Kids are real proud of it, and
were proud to display it for
them.
In addition to having hundreds
of pieces of work displayed during the two weeks of the art show,
36 pieces, four from each school,
will be framed courtesy of the
Evesham Education Foundation
to be displayed at the township
municipal building and school
district administrative building
until next years show.
We love it. We love looking at
it, and sometimes, were able to
have enough to put it in a few of
the offices as well, Scavelli said.
I know in the past Ive had different pieces in my office, so we really enjoy looking at them.
One such student who had her
artwork displayed throughout the
year and now had it returned was
Van Zandt Elementarys third
grader Maggie Conchado. Maggie
said she thought it was really
cool to have people appreciate
her art throughout the year, and
she hopes to become an art
teacher herself as an adult.
I really like art and I want to
be an art teacher when I grow
up, Maggie said. I like drawing,
and I think my mom is a really
good artist and its cool. I like
sketch drawing. I have a notebook

that I just sketch in.


Maggies art teacher, Stacey
Santora, who was also at the
event, said the annual gala is
something important to students
that they look forward to all year.
Its just one of those things
thats so memorable to them, and
were just so glad to be able to give
this to them, Santora said.
There are just so many districts
that dont have anything like
this.
District Director of Curriculum Danielle Magulick echoed
Santoras and Scavellis sentiments and said the district was
happy to be able to still have such
visual and performing arts programs, since many districts may
have downsized or cut them altogether due to lack of funding.
We have so many talented
kids who might be talented in
math, or might be talented in art,
and its really important to us in
the district that were looking at
the whole child and looking at
everybodys strength and finding
different ways to highlight it,
Magulick said.
One official at the event looking at such highlights and greeting students was Mayor Randy
Brown, who said one of the best
decisions made was when the
show was moved to the municipal
building for the last three years,
as opposed to the school district
administrative building where it
was held prior.
Its transformed the township
building into an art gallery, and
Id gladly cancel court and board
meetings and whatever else for
three weeks so that their art can
be displayed in comfortable, air
conditioned areas, Brown said.

enough for Demree. Part of his
mission is to get as many of his
peers involved as he can.
You definitely have to volunteer, Demree said. Its a choice

in which you live your life.


All award recipients plan to
continue volunteering when they
head off to college next fall. Each
also encourages their fellow peers
in the school community to continue volunteering themselves.
Go out and give it a shot,
Bauer said. Volunteering is very
fun.

Speaker an LRHSD grad


SPEAKER
Continued from page 1
Schaeffer graduated from West
Point and, before that, Lenape
High School. However, Schaeffer
also shared his ties with the other
schools in the district.
Having a brother who graduated from Shawnee, attending
Cherokee football camps as a kid
and, though Seneca was not
around in his day, he wrestled
with assistant principal and athletic director Brad Bauer on the
1994 Lenape wrestling team.
Dedicating much of his life to
the armed services in which he
received a laundry list of decorations and traveled to many different countries, Schaeffer still
refers to South Jersey as home.
From all the experiences he
gathered throughout his time in
the services, he stressed two
points to remember as these
young ROTC members head off to
face the toughest 10 weeks of
their lives.
One, never quit, you have
what it takes to succeed. And two,
thank you, what an awesome
choice you made to serve. You are
Americas future, Schaeffer
said.
Some of these students will be
the first in their respective families to take the military route,
while others will be following in
the footsteps of proud veteran
family members who were also
recognized for their services in
the ceremony. These loved ones
played a big role in why a lot of
the students got involved in their
schools ROTC programs with
larger plans to some day join the
services.
I joined to protect my home,
my family, my friends and get out
there and try to make a difference
in the world, Eric Pry of Lenape
High School said.
I joined to keep my nation and
keep my loved ones safe, Patrick
Byrne of Lenape High School
said.
Zach Kincaid of Lenape High
School took a different path that
led him to where he is today.
As a child, Kincaid suffered a
traumatic injury to his skull,

leaving him with less than a 10


percent chance to live. After he
was able to overcome these odds,
he decided he would dedicate his
life to his country.
I technically shouldnt have
lived, so after surviving that experience, I feel that I need to spend
the rest of my life trying to save
others, Kincaid said.
Unlike many of their friends
who will soon be packing to leave
for the Shore or college, this select group will be packing a much
smaller bag consisting of the bare
essentials and heading to basic
training.
Basic training, or as many call
it boot camp, is undoubtedly
grueling, as Schaeffer assured,
but he also guaranteed the everlasting memories and friendships
these students will take with
them afterward will make the entire process worthwhile.
Dig deep, remember an ounce
of discipline is worth a ton of regret, and keep going, Schaeffer
said.
The school districts goal in
holding the ceremony wasnt just
to honor military personnel, but
to create a Lenape community
where military alumni can return home.
These alumni stood for a powerful round of applause at the beginning of the ceremony and also
took the stage to receive awards
from the LRHSD Board of Education members and a selection of
principals from the district.
Its nice for these students and
their parents to see alumni from
the district and get the chance to
talk to them as they go off and really understand what a honorable
thing it is that they are doing,
Chris Heilig, the director of programs and planning for the district, said.
This was the sixth annual
Armed Services Awards Ceremony the district has held, and
though the number of alumni
who come back has dwindled
from the first ceremony, this does
not jeopardize the future of this
event.
Even if theres just one person to honor, we're going to continue to do it because its important to honor such a noble cause,
Heilig said.
