    Cutting hair for

    Locks of LoveBY HEATHER FIOREThe Hopewell SunA little more than 10 months

    ago, 46 people from the HopewellElementary School communitymade the pledge to grow theirhair out for the remainder of theschool year to donate it to Locksof Love.

    On June 10, the selection ofstudents, parents, teachers andcommunity members who madethe pledge stood in front of theentire student body to get theirlong-awaited haircut, and showoff their new looks.

    Locks of Love is a non-profitorganization that provides hair-

    pieces to financially disadvan-taged children under 21 in theUnited States and Canada whoare suffering from long-termmedically related hair loss.

    The school collected 100 pony-tails from the event. It takes be-tween six and 10 ponytails to cre-ate one hairpiece, so the donorsat Hopewell Elementary assistedin the creation of at least 10 hair-pieces.

    Before the donors paraded tothe gymnasium to get their newhaircuts, they were prepped bythe stylists of Friends Salon inHopewell Borough, who closedup shop for the day to set up a

    Businesses to be recognizedfor environmental practices

    BY HEATHER FIOREThe Hopewell Sun

    On June 11, the Hopewell Val-ley Green Team launched theGreen Business Recognition Pro-gram, which will recognize localbusinesses for improving theirsustainability through environ-mentally friendly practices andpolicies.

    The mission of the HVGT,

    which is comprised of membersfrom all three municipalities(Hopewell Township, HopewellBorough and Pennington Bor-ough), is helping everyone wholives and works in the HopewellValley to protect this beautifulplace we call home, according tothe organizations website.

    In an effort to expand the orga-nizations sustainability initia-

    tives, the HVGT introduced theprogram and what it has to offerto a variety of local businessesfrom all three municipalities atits meeting on June 11.

    The Green Team started ini-tiatives in the community to lookat sustainable living by many dif-ferent parameters, said BobMiller, a member of the HVGT.It started with recycling, shop-ping locally, reusing products,

    low electricity use and thosetypes of things with residents,but we wanted to expand ourbase to include businesses.

    So we thought this [meeting]would be a nice way to share withthem and have them share withus some of the green methodsthat theyve already been takingfor sustainability, and then wemay be able to help them with

    some of the issues that they maybe struggling with.

    At the meeting, the HVGT pre-sented a simple checklist abusiness would have to completeif it wanted to apply for theprogram.

    The checklist includes actionsbusinesses have already taken,such as recycling, installing ener-gy efficient equipment and en-couraging employees to carpool

    or bike to work to reduce theircarbon footprint, Miller said.

    Once they reach a certainnumber of points on the list, thenwe would award them with aGreen Team window stickerdecal, a presentation award, andthen showcase that business onour website and also try to broad-cast that information in our local

    If the only exposure you had to

    New Jersey was what others said

    or wrote about it, youd think it

    was the worst place on the planet.

    Scan the Internet just this week, and

    youd find these stories:

    Our governor called the authors of

    a League of Municipalities report ontax reform corrupt and labeled the

    groups leader as a whiner.

    A Little League coach in Newark

    plead guilty in court to assaulting an

    umpire because he wouldnt call a

    game due to darkness.

    A new report says that the Garden

    State is the most expensive state to get

    your car repaired. A great white shark circled a boat

    off the coast (not that this has much to

    do with Jersey).

    The greater public perception ofNew Jersey is that it is a crowded, ex-

    pensive state full of loud, obnoxious

    people (thanks Real Housewives and

    Jersey Shore) who think they are

    better than everyone else (well, arent

    we?). Our governor fits that mold per-

    fectly, even as he is being mentioned as

    a potential candidate for president of

    the United States when the next elec-tion comes around.

    Heck, of the three professional

    sports teams that are located in the

    state, only one (the Devils) are

    proud enough to label themselves

    from New Jersey. The other two (the

    Giants and Jets) act like theyre from

    New York.

    So why does anyone still live here?

    Why are we doing this to ourselves?

    Because, for those of us who livehere, who grew up here and are rais-

    ing families here, we know the good-

    ness that is here in New Jersey, even if

    we recognize the bad. We love our

    beaches, our mountains and our easy

    access to major cities. We are proud of

    our small, quaint towns, our history

    and our top-notch schools, even if we

    pay exhorbitant prices to be here.We are New Jersey, and well always

    be New Jersey.

    And we dont care what you think.

    What are we still doing here?With all the negativity about the state, whydoes anyone live in N.J.?

    Your thoughts

    Are you proud to be a New Jerseyan?Let us know why you choose to call theGarden State your home...and also whatyoud like to see improve.

    will take to the field on Saturday,June 22, when the Mercer CountyPark Commission hosts its 25thAnnual Old Time Baseball Game.

    The match-up features theHowell Farm Hogs vs. the JerseyBulls, teams that play accordingto the rules that governed base-ball in those early days when bats

    In the overall competition,which began in 1988, the Bulls areahead two games, with a record of12 wins and 10 losses. There wasno game in 1999 due to players

Both teams will be inperiod attire. Prior to this game,Brad Brooklyn Shaw, of the Ne-shanocks, will narrate Casey at

    Its a great thing and certain-ly timely and appropriate,Miller said. Were excited aboutit.

    The people that the GreenTeam talks to also seem interest-ed. So, its slow to take steps, but

    its definitely taking steps in goodfashion.

    mini salon in one of the artrooms at the school, known asSalon de Locks of Love.

    The stylists sectioned, braidedand ponytailed each donors hairto comply with Locks of Lovesstandards; to donate hair to

    Locks of Love, its required thatthe hair be braided or tied in aponytail.

    The hairdressers also stuck

    around to style each of thedonors after they got their verypublic haircuts.

    From my perspective, it [thisevent] fits in really well with ourdesire to support others who areless fortunate, said DavidFriedrich, principal of HopewellElementary. Every single contri-bution and donation, regardlessof the length of the hair, is wel-come, appreciated and will truly

    make a difference in the life ofothers.The Locks of Love event was

    made possible by two parents,

    Michelle Brennan and Sue Dayn-er, who brought the idea toFriedrich in the beginning of theschool year.

    We held a school-widepresentation where we showed avideo of two sisters who donatedtheir hair to Locks of Love so thekids could understand and have aconcept of what we were tryingto do, Brennan said.

    These kids are between 5 and

    11 years old and a lot have neverheard about Locks of Love, sorather than explaining it, weshowed the video of the donorprocess, and sent a form homewith each of the kids explainingthe event to parents.

    Brennan and Dayner decidedto approach Friends Salon, whichis located down the street fromthe school, to ask for their assis-tance, and they were more thanhappy to help.

    They do free haircuts for any-

    body who donates to Locks ofLove on any occasion already, sowe just thought it would makesense to ask them to be part ofour event, Brennan said.

    Locks of Loves mission is toreturn sense of self-confidenceand normalcy to children whoare suffering from hair loss byusing donations or ponytails thatare of the highest quality.

    Each hairpiece generally costsbetween $4,000 and $6,000 tomake, but by using donations,Locks of Love is able to providethem at significantly reducedprices.

    It is a big sacrifice [to make],especially when youre a littlekid, Brennan said.

    Some of the kids this agehave only cut their hair a coupleof times, so this is a big thing forsome of them.

    Its so nice for them to under-stand what a difference theyremaking in another kids life, and

    its great to give them opportuni-ty to give back to someone theirown age.
