Two tot lots in Mt. Laurel could

get a fresh new look later thisyear.

Mt. Laurel’s director of munic-ipal services Jerry Mascia pro-posed a plan at last Monday’scouncil meeting to refurbish theMayfair and Timber Crest totlots. The Mayfair lot is located onCarlton Lane in the Larchmontsection of town, while TimberCrest is located on Creek Roadnear the New Jersey Turnpikeoverpass.

Refurbishment plans were pro-posed for both tot lots due to thestate of disrepair they are in.

“These two come to the top of the list with structural issues,”Mascia said.

Last October, Dyanne Dansky, aresident living across the streetfrom the Mayfair tot lot, went be-fore council to ask for repairs.She said the fence for the park’stennis court had holes, the pave-ment was cracked and uneven,and vandals had cut down thenets. She also said the park’s play-ground equipment and swingswere unsafe for children.

At the time, township managerMaureen Mitchell said repairscouldn’t be made since Dansky’sreport to council came in afterthe township’s budget for the yearhad been passed, but promised tomove the park up on the prioritylist for 2015.

Mascia’s plan includes elimi-

nating the dilapidated tenniscourts at Mayfair and moving theplayground equipment closer tothe center of the lot. The play-ground equipment would be re-placed and picnic tables would beadded nearby. The worn-out fenc-ing near the playground wouldalso be removed. A similar planwas also proposed for TimberCrest.

Mascia said he composed theplan after receiving feedback

from about 50 residents livingnear Mayfair and a few residentsliving near Timber Crest. He saidthe biggest suggestion from resi-dents was additional green spacein the lots.

Mitchell said replacing the ten-nis courts at Mayfair makes sensebecause of the state of disrepair.

“The tennis courts themselvesweren’t maintained,” Mitchellsaid.

Mascia said tennis players arechoosing to use other nearbycourts. He mentioned many play-ers prefer to go to Larchmont ten-nis courts, which are less than amile from Mayfair and includelights.

Dansky expressed her doubtsabout the proposal to council, say-ing the township would need tofollow through and maintain thetot lot to keep residents from ru-

In just a few short weeks, high

school seniors throughout New

Jersey will be wrapping up their

final days of class, taking their final

high school tests and walking onto

their high school field one more time

for graduation.

It’s an exciting time in the life of ayoung man or young woman. The final

weeks of high school, the graduation

ceremony, the hugs and congratula-

tions following, the celebrations that

will last throughout the summer and

the packing for, the drive to and the ar-

rival at college are memories gradu-

ates will remember fondly.

To all the grads out there, while you

may want to rush these last days so

school can be out for summer, and so

high school can be out forever, remem-

ber to savor every remaining moment.

This may not mean much to you

right now, but there are experiences

you will have in these final days, these

next few months, that you will neverreplicate again. There are people you

will graduate with – some friends,

some acquaintances, some whom you

grew up with – whom you may never

see again.

There are some whom you are close

with now who you will grow apart

from over the years, and there are

some whom you will grow closer to asyour lives change.

Those wistful days of no responsi-

bility will be behind you. Soon, you

will be on your own. You will have the

freedom to eat pizza for breakfast, stay

up until 4 a.m., take a nap in the mid-

dle of the day, go berzerk at a sporting

event wearing your college’s colors

and skip a class if you want to – note:

we don’t recommend that last one.

The label “high school student”

came with a lot of restrictions on your

freedom, but it also gave you a get-out-

of-jail-free card, or cards. Once gradua-

tion is over, that label goes away. Allfreedoms given to an American adult

will be yours.

But so, too, will all the consequences

of your actions. The decisions you

make – from as serious as “do I study

for this test?” to “should I eat another

burrito?” – will all have results that

will affect your life. It’s a lot of respon-

sibility. It’s a good thing, for sure, but

it can also be a scary thing, becoming

an adult.

So, while you still have the option,

live life as a “kid” one last time. Savor

these last days of high school. And be

confident that you will do just fine.

Good luck and congratulations!

in our opinion

Three letters could spell a solu-tion for the issue regarding feralcats in Mt. Laurel.

A group of residents and ani-mal activists from around thearea came out to last Monday’s

Mt. Laurel council meeting topropose an alternative to a feed-ing ban for feral animals.

The group asked the townshipto establish a trap, neuter and re-lease, or TNR, program. Undersuch a program, resident volun-teers would catch young feralcats, take them to a local animalhospital to be neutered and re-ceive their necessary shots andvaccinations, and release them

into the outdoors.“Trap, neuter and release is the

only way to control feral cats,”resident Al Martino said.

At its May 4 meeting, councildiscussed a possible ordinancefining residents who are caughtfeeding feral cats. Township clerkMeredith Tomczyk said Burling-

ton County officials recommend-ed the township pass the ordi-nance for both health and safetyreasons.

Mayor Irwin Edelson said TNRwas something he had not knownabout prior to last Monday. Mau-reen Koplow, a resident fromDeptford, provided Edelson andcouncil with information on howa TNR program could work in Mt.Laurel. Koplow said TNR would

allow the cats to exist in their nat-ural outdoor home and helps con-trol the population.

“Burlington County has TNRprograms in a number of towns,”Koplow said.

Al Chernoff is a Philadelphiaresident who operates Alley CatAnimal Rescue and has handled

various cat colonies in the area.He endorsed TNR and said thetownship could receive grants forhaving such a program.

Resident Tina Wilson also saidthe township could benefit great-ly. She was one of a number of residents who said they wouldvolunteer to help trap, neuter andrelease the cats. She said a TNR

Dansky said. “But people don’tvandalize something that is main-tained.”

According to Dansky, the tot lot

remains in disrepair, with theplayground equipment and thetennis courts unusable. She notedkids hang out in the tennis courts

and litter the area.She asked council to make sure

police patrol the area better, say-ing a lack of police presence inthe neighborhood is a reason thetot lot is a target for vandals. Shealso asked council to make sure

public works keeps up on main-taining the lot.

“You better have more cops andmore public works people to

maintain it,” she said.Mayor Irwin Edelson said

Local Cancer Survivor Fights Back

through Relay For Life Movement Mount Laurel, NJ –May 18, 2015 – According

to the American Cancer Society, more than1.6 million people will be diagnosed with can-

cer this year. For Maria Donohue of Mount

Laurel, the statistics became personal when

she learned she was diagnosed with breast

cancer four years ago.

Although the diagnosis was frightening

and devastating Maria knew that she had to

stay strong and beat this disease while rais-

ing her young daughter.

“I didn’t want cancer to consume our life,"

Donohue said. "I wanted to live a very nor-

mal life. I wanted my daughter Kelly to look

at my strength and not at this disease."

After a bilateral mastectomy with recon-

structive surgery and eight chemo treat-

ments Maria is now cancer free and will be

celebrating her 53rd birthday this year. She

takes medication daily to prevent from recur-

rence.

“Having cancer is hard, but finding help

was easy for me,” Donohue said. “The Amer-

ican Cancer Society is always there for any-

one going through this cancer journey. My14 year old daughter Kelly came home to ask

if we could participate in Relay For Life be-

cause her Community Service Club at

Lenape High School would also be participat-

ing in the event. It's our way of supporting

other survivors and providing hope to those

who are still in the "clash with cancer". Tak-

ing part in Relay for Life is also our way of

saying that it's not the diagnosis - but how

you handle it that matters. “

Here in Mount Laurel, funds raised

through Relay For Life are making an impacton many lives. From making possible the

vital American Cancer Society programs

and services that support those in our com-

munity facing a diagnosis, to life-changing

cancer research and medical discovery, to ad-

vocacy for access to quality health care for

everyone affected by cancer, the money

raised through the Relay For Life of Mount

Laurel will help us finish the fight against

cancer.

The American Cancer Society estimatesthat nearly 14.5 million people with a history

of cancer were alive on January 1, 2014, in

the United States. Thousands of cancer sur-

vivors participate in American Cancer Soci-

ety Relay For Life events each year. They, andtheir caregivers, take the first lap of every

event as community members cheer them on

and celebrate the progress that has been

made against cancer.

Relay For Life is a community event where

teams and individuals camp out at a school,

park, or fairground and take turns walking

or running around a track or path. Each

team has at least one participant on the track

at all times and participates in fundraising

in the months leading up to the event. Four

million people participated in more than

6,000 events worldwide last year. The money

raised supports groundbreaking cancer re-

search, education and prevention programs,

and critical services for people facing cancer.

This year’s Relay For Life of Mount Laurel

will be held on May 29-30, 2015 at Lenape

High School at 235 Hartford Road in Medford,

NJ. Registration is open for survivors, partic-

ipants, and teams.

Life program, visit relayforlife.org orwww.RelayForLife.org/MtLaurelNJ or con-

death rates in the US during the past two

decades, and a 50 percent drop in smokingrates. Thanks in part to our progress nearly

14.5 million Americans who have had cancer

to test the app ahead of the re-lease.

The district used the feedbackfrom beta testing to make furtheradjustments.

“Over recent months, a smallgroup of students, parents andstaff have been beta testing theapp in advance of the public re-lease,” Donaldson said.

Donaldson said the district hasreceived positive feedback fromthe school community. In the firstweek of its release, the app re-

ceived more than 3,300 down-loads.

Donaldson said the app willcontinue to develop over time,and welcomed feedback and sug-gestions from the school commu-nity.

“We anticipate that as staff,students and parents becomemore familiar with the app thatthey will provide us with new andinnovative ways to make the al-ready powerful app even better inthe future,” he said.

The district has created a tuto-rial video and webpage to guideusers through the app. The videoand other information about theapp can be found atwww.lrhsd.org/App.

Council will consider TNR program

program would allow Mt. Laurelto serve as an example for othersurrounding municipalities.

“A program needs to be set inplace,” Wilson said. “A feedingban is not appropriate.”

A number of residents said afeeding ban would exacerbate theissue. Bill Josko, a Mt. Laurel res-ident who volunteers with the

Animal Welfare Association, saida feeding ban could cause feralcats to starve and die while notsolving the issue of possible over-

population.“We believe it is the wrong ap-

proach and makes it worse for an-imals and citizens,” he said.

Resident Wayne Person addedthose feeding the feral cats maycontinue to do so even if a banwere in place, defeating the pur-pose of a potential ordinance.

“We don’t want to be in a posi-tion where people say ‘I’m going

to feed the animals regardless,’”he said.

Members of council acknowl-edged they learned a lot about

TNR, and it would be consideredwhen addressing the issue.

Edelson said council isnowhere near ready to make a de-cision on how to proceed withferal cats and said it will be sometime before the governing bodymakes a decision on how to pro-ceed.

“We have a lot of homework todo,” he said.

Congratulations to LenapeHigh School students Gabrielle

Shvartsman, Roshan Vasoya,Grace Stridick and Kavi Munjalwho were all selected toattend Governor's School of NewJersey.

The girls are going to DrewUniversity and the boys will at-tend Rutgers University.

"Each school may only nomi-nate four students,” scienceteacher Kate DeSantis said. “It ishighly competitive – manyschools don't get any students ac-cepted. It is very unusual, and ahigh honor to our school, that allfour of our applicants were ac-cepted."

The Governor’s School of NewJersey was established in 1983. Itis a tuition-free, summer, residen-tial program for high-achievinghigh school seniors who have aninterest in science, technology,engineering and mathematicssubjects.

Currently, there are two pro-grams: the Governor’s School inthe Sciences at Drew University

and the Governor’s School of En-gineering and Technology at Rut-gers University.

Special to The Sun

Lenape High School students Gabrielle Shvartsman, Roshan Vasoya,Grace Stridick and Kavi Munjal will attend the Governor’s School ofNew Jersey this summer.
