SPOTLIGHT

Morven in MayPrinceton celebrates TruckFest

By KATIE MORGANThe Sun

The 11 eating clubs of Prince-ton University joined forces forthe first time in recent history toplan the first Princeton Truck-Fest on April 25.

Every year, each eating clubholds a community service event,and its usually behind closeddoors and open only to that clubsmembers, Austin Sanders, oneof the events organizers, said.We started to meet back in thefall and talk about how to openup this community service initia-tive to the whole university andto the greater Princeton commu-nity. We were inspired by a foodtruck festival in Washington,D.C., and we decided to shutdown Prospect Avenue, where allthe eating clubs are, and bring infood trucks.

All proceeds from the event,which involved 11 food trucksand two musical acts, went toSend Hunger Packing, an initia-tive sponsored by Mercer Street

Friends and the Trenton AreaSoup Kitchen.

Send Hunger Packing identi-fies students that wouldnt havenutritious meals on weekendsand provides them with a back-pack that contains two healthymeals per day, Sanders said. Itsa big thing to be able to give kidsnutritious meals at school, and

Arts Council shares growth with Town CouncilBy KATIE MORGAN

The Sun

Jeff Nathanson, executive di-rector of the Arts Council ofPrinceton, gave a comprehensivereport to the Princeton Councilon April 21, documenting the or-ganizations success and growthwithin the community.

Every spring we come beforecouncil, usually right before theCommuniversity Festival of theArts, which is our largest eventof the year, Nathanson said.One of the things we do in our

annual neighborhood and com-munity report is talk about ourservices and the impact andinput we get from the neighbor-hood.

In the introduction to the re-port, Nathanson spoke about thegrowth of the organizations

presence within the community.Its exciting to look back on

the past year and see how theArts Councils outreach to thecommunity has grown, the in-troduction to the report, which isavailable on the Arts Councilwebsite, read.

During the year, we increasedour outreach to seniors, teensand to those in the communitywho have little or no access to thearts. In the spirit of our missionof building community throughthe arts, we were proud to workwith our new consolidated

Princeton to adopt a new townlogo and to sponsor a communitycollage mural project.

Nathanson added that the ArtsCouncil is in the planning and de-velopment stages of several newpublic art projects.

Much of the annual report fo-

cuses on the data compiled eachyear about the Arts Councilsbudget, members, classes and vol-unteers.

In 2007, our operating budgetwas just under $750,000,Nathanson said. This year its$1.5 million. Our growth has beentremendous. Weve more thandoubled our membership and ourprogramming overall, and wevedoubled the number of studentsinvolved in our classes and work-shops.

According to the report, lastyear there were more than 50,000

participants in the Arts Councilsprograms and events. The ArtsCouncil offered 489 studioarts classes for children andadults, 238 of which were newclasses. There were more than2,000 total students enrolled, andmore than $18,000 in scholarships

awarded.Nathanson said much of the

growth would not be possiblewithout the work of the organiza-tions dedicated volunteers.

This past year, we had morethan 350 volunteers who loggedabout 3,655 hours of work,Nathanson said. That is reallygoing above and beyond, andthats in addition to our staff of12 and our 95 instructors.

Nathanson also talked aboutthe history of the Communiversi-ty Festival, now one of thelargest events in the area.

Communiversity has been acollaboration between [Prince-ton] University and the ArtsCouncil for more than 40 years,Nathanson said. Without thesupport of the town, we wouldnever be able to put on this eventthat has grown to over 40,000 at-

tendees, making it the largest cul-tural event in the region. I thinkwe can all be proud that not onlythis event, but our town, drawssuch an enthusiastic responsefrom the region.

Nathanson said he is enthusi-astic about the growth the ArtsCouncil has undergone in thepast year, and he is eager to intro-duce new projects, classes andevents to encourage the Prince-ton communitys dedication toculture and the arts.

Art is not something extraor frivolous, Nathanson

said. Art is essential to thehealth and wellbeing of our stu-dents and the members of ourcommunity.

The Arts Council of Prince-tons full annual report is avail-able online at www.artscouncilof-princeton.org.

BRIEFSPolice change overnight

parking standardsThe Princeton Police Depart-

ment has announced that it willbegin phasing in a new standardfor overnight and permit parkingin town.

In the former borough, and onsome streets in the former town-ship, overnight parking was pro-

hibited, except to those grantedspecial permission by the depart-ment.

Under the new standard,overnight parking permissionwill not be granted on any streetwhere overnight parking is pro-hibited, except in the case of anemergency.

For the past sixteen months,the combined municipality ofPrinceton has considered numer-ous options to address the cur-rent parking situation in thetown, and specifically the dispari-ty between the numerous parkingordinances from each of the for-mer municipalities in terms ofovernight parking regulations, arelease from the departmentread. While the town and the po-

lice department understand thatthis is an extremely sensitivearea to many, the time has cometo standardize the actions takenby the police department in termsof enforcement and any al-lowances that can be made by thepolice department.

In addition to the new

overnight parking standards, res-idents who possess a parking per-mit will only be allowed to parkon streets where the permit is rec-ognized as valid. Parking permitsare available to residents throughthe town clerks office.

With this first step in place,we will continue to work with thePrinceton community toward apermanent solution to our cur-rent parking issues that will be

satisfactory to all those involved,the police release said. This poli-cy will be in effect until such timeas the ordinances have been har-monized in which to address theparking requirements.

Mercer, Quaker roadsto undergo renovationA large-scale road project that

includes the repair and resurfac-ing of Mercer Road betweenProvince Line Road and Quaker

Road is set to begin in the firstweek of May. According to a re-lease from the Princeton PoliceDepartment, the projected firstday of construction will be May 5.

The first part of the project,

which will entail the milling, re-pair and repaving of MercerRoad, is expected to take between10 and 14 days to complete. Thework will be done between 7 a.m.and 5 p.m.

The second phase of the proj-ect, which includes the milling,repair and resurfacing of QuakerRoad between Mercer Road andthe Port Mercer Area, will takebetween three and four weeks to

complete.It is expected that roadways

will be open to traffic during non-scheduled work hours, the policerelease read. Route 206 will bethe designated detour for the du-ration of the project, and signagewill be posted to that end.

HISTORY OFKAZAK RUGS

Kazak is a small city in

the Northwestern part

of Azerbaijan, with

valleys spanning across

to Armenia and Geor-

gia. Woven post 1830 by

Armenians and

Afghanis, rugs from this

region were influenced

by Caucasian designs

found in rugs from old

Russia and the northern

part of the Persian

Empire. The color

palette is often red,

yellow, gold or blue

with geometric designs

which compliment both

modern and classic

interiors. Visit our

store for a wide

selection of

Kazak rugs.

Princeton University and themunicipality of Princeton an-nounced on April 24 that after sev-eral months of negotiation, theyhave reached a seven-year agree-ment under which the universitywill contribute $21.72 million tothe town. Also included in theagreement are several one-timecontributions of $2.59 million the

university will make to municipalprojects. According to the detailsof the announcement, the univer-sitys contribution will increasesteadily over the course of theagreement.

In calendar year 2014, the uni-versitys voluntary unrestrictedcontribution will be $2.75 million,an increase of more than 10 per-cent over its 2013 contribution,the announcement read. In each

subsequent year of the agree-ment, through 2020, the universitywill increase its contribution by 4percent per year.

The university will also con-tribute an additional $90,000 thisyear for the purchase of a newFree-B vehicle. Other contribu-tions the school will make to mu-nicipal projects over the nextseven years include $250,000 to-ward the construction of a newPublic Works facility; $500,000 to-

ward construction of the newPrinceton First Aid and RescueSquad building; $500,000 towardthe purchase of a new fire-fight-ing apparatus; and $250,000 to-ward the expansion of the Wither-spoon Fire Station. The universityhas already committed $300,000 to-ward that project in a previousagreement.

The universitys negotiatingteam consisted of Robert Durkee,university vice president, andKristin Appleget, director of com-

munity and regional affairs.Council President Bernie Miller,Administrator Bob Bruschi andCouncilman Patrick Simon repre-sented the town of Princeton.

The discussions with Prince-ton University were conducted inan atmosphere of mutual respect

and an understanding of theshared interests of the universityand the town, Miller said in therelease. The agreement that wasreached embodies three impor-tant principles; first, it is a seven-year agreement that achieves fis-cal stability between the universi-ty and the municipality. Second,the unrestricted voluntary contri-butions will increase annually ata rate greater than permitted forthe municipal property tax under

New Jersey law.University President Christo-

pher Eisgruber expressed his ap-proval of the agreement.

We are very pleased to be ableto make these contributions to thetown of Princeton, and in doingso to reaffirm both our desire tohelp sustain the vitality and well-being of our home communityand our deep appreciation for themany aspirations and interestswe share, Eisgruber said in therelease. I believe this agreement

reflects a strong spirit of coopera-tion and mutual respect betweenthe town and the university, whohelped guide us to this agree-ment.

The Princeton Council was setto confirm the agreement througha resolution on April 28.

Reader thanks departmentsfor quick response

I wanted to commend the Parks Depart-ments and Public Works Department. I liveon the corner of Birch and John streets,and had a concern about a few trees on thecommunity garden property. They wereoverhanging my property and they lookedunhealthy. I have two little boys that would

like to play outside in the backyard, but Iwas hesitant because of my concern aboutthe tree. I called the city and they sent meto the parks office. I left a message. Theycalled me right away and told me they hadforwarded my message to Public Works. In

less than a week, the arborist checked outthe tree (it was dead), and the city took careof it that day. This was a fairly large treeproject, and that they were able to takecare of it so quickly and respond to a citi-

zen's request is not only appreciated, butalso represents the hard work and qualitycustomer service from the city.

Very appreciative of everything!Brandon Chong

Thirty-one words are ingrained

in our brains forever, thanks to

the fact that we attended school

in this country:

I pledge allegiance to the Flag of

the United States of America, and to

the Republic for which it stands, one

Nation under God, indivisible, withliberty and justice for all.

The pledge was written more than

120 years ago, and Congress formally

adopted it in 1942. But it wasnt until

Flag Day in 1954 that the Pledge be-

came a point of controversy.

That year, while the U.S. was fully

encapsulated in the Cold War, two

words, under God, were added to thePledge to differentiate the U.S. from

the concept of communist atheism.

At the time, there wasnt much to it.

A group of Jehovahs Witnesses chal-

lenged the Pledge in the 1950s, but the

legal fight against the words under

God didnt pick up steam until more

recently.

Court cases in 2002 in Massachu-

setts and 2006 in Florida found in the

plaintiffs favor, but ultimately, in 2010,

the phraseology was upheld by a U.S.

Court of Appeals.

Now, a family in New Jersey is

suing the Matawan-Aberdeen Region-

al School District because, as the

American Humanist Association says,

the phrase, marginalizes atheist andhumanist kids as something less than

ideal patriots.

The school districts lawyer says in-

dividual students dont have to partici-

pate. A similar case in Massachusetts

that is in court could pave the way for

a decision in this New Jersey case.

But isnt this a little ludicrous? Sim-

ply saying the Pledge, or having to

hear it, does not infringe on a stu-

dents rights. The Pledge is more about

history than it is religion, even with

the words under God included.

Even though many school districts

have changed the labels to winterbreak and spring break, the reason

students get off from school is because

of religious holidays Christmas and

Easter. Many school districts also

close for the Jewish holidays of Rosh

Hashanah and Yom Kippur.

Religion and history go hand in

hand in this country. Its hard to have

one without the other. Our schoolsteach about this history through

books, homework and tests, but also

through breaking for religious holi-

days and by saying the Pledge. And as

long as that history doesnt violate the

Constitution, then we shouldnt

change that history.

Under God no more?Changes should not be made to the Pledge of Allegiance

Your thoughts

What do you think about the words of thePledge of Allegiance? Share yourthoughts on this, and other topics, in a let-ter to the editor.

On May 4, a new tradition willcome to Princetons streets. Quak-er Road will be closed to cars, andPrinceton residents are encour-

aged to bike, walk, run, skate,stroll, roll or dance down thestreet.

The Princeton Ciclovia willopen the road to community usefor participants to walk, pushstrollers, skate, run, bike, usewheelchairs and walkers,rollerblade, skateboard, danceand use the road in creative andactive ways, read an announce-ment about the event on the mu-nicipal website.

Ciclovia, a Spanish word that

means cycleway, began in Bogo-ta, Colombia, where each Sundayand public holiday, main streetsare closed to automobiles from 7a.m. to 2 p.m. Ciclovia events arealso regularly held in major citiesin Australia, Argentina, Belgium,Brazil, Canada, Ecuador, Mexico,New Zealand and Peru.

This is something that hap-pens all over the world, and in alot of cities in the U.S., MayorLiz Lempert said. Were very ex-cited to be bringing it to Prince-ton.

The Princeton Pedestrian andBicycle Advisory Committee willsponsor the event in conjunctionwith the municipality, the Prince-ton Police Department, the His-torical Society of Princeton,Princeton Friends Meeting, the

Princeton Battlefield Society,Princeton Freewheelers and Sus-tainable Princeton.

The point is to promote ahealthy lifestyle, Lempert said.And to promote biking and walk-ing and other forms of trans-

portation, instead of taking yourcar.Quaker Road will be closed

from 12:30 to 4:30 p.m. While par-ticipants are encouraged to walkor ride their bikes to the event,parking will be available at theFriends School on Mercer Roadin Princeton, and in the parkinglot of Babies R Us in the NassauPark Shopping Center.

A group bike ride, sponsoredby the Central Jersey BicycleClub, will leave the Princeton

Shopping Center for QuakerRoad at 12:15 p.m. Registration forthe group bike ride is not re-quired.

The Ciclovia will take partici-pants past the Updike Farmstead,where the Historical Society ofPrinceton will run tours through-out the afternoon. In addition,sponsors D&R Canal Watch willoffer a guided bird walk led byTed Chase at 1:30 p.m. and a guid-ed history walk led by Doug Mc-Cray at 3 p.m. The walks, both ofwhich will last about 30 minutes,will start from the D&R Canalparking lot near Port Mercer.

Hopefully this will becomesomething we do more often,Lempert said. Its a very coolevent, and it will be a lot of funfor everyone in attendance.

Eleven trucks featured at event

then maintaining those healthyeating habits through the week-end is just huge.

According to the MercerStreet Friends food bank, SendHunger Packing operates in 13schools, and feeds about 600 stu-dents. Of those students, 255 arestudents in Princetons publicschools.

The expansion into Prince-ton serves to highlight that child

hunger is found in urban, subur-ban and rural settings, a 2013Mercer Street Friends releaseread. In poor or wealthy com-munities, there are children andfamilies facing hunger and foodinsecurity. Princeton is regard-

ed as an affluent community, yetone out of every eight childrenin the Princeton Public Schooldistrict receive free or reduced

price lunches.The 11 trucks featured

at the event were Pudgys StreetFood, Stace of Cakes, MausamCurry n Bites, UndrgrndDonuts, Oink and Moo BBQ,Ticos Eatery and Juice Bar, TheDapper Dog, Pura Vida, LostBrothers Pizza, The Taco Truckand Wrap Star.

The trucks invited to partici-pate are all based in New Jersey,a move Sanders said was inten-

tional.Its very thematic, Sanderssaid. Eating clubs, food trucks,fighting food insecurity. We alsoreally wanted to keep the causevery local to the Princeton com-munity. Were supporting a

group thats already present inthe community, and the trucksare not making any money offthis event. By having local

trucks, we figured theyd bemore invested in giving back totheir community.

TruckFest is still acceptingdonations through the websiteat www.princetontruckfest.org.Sanders, now a senior, said shehopes this is an event that willcontinue to bring together thePrinceton University communi-ty and the residents in the sur-rounding town.

The students of Princeton al-

ways talk about how much thecommunity adds to our Prince-ton Experience, Sanders said.This is our way of doing some-thing to tell the members of thiscommunity how much we trulyappreciate them.

Princeton couple open theirhome for Fresh Air Fund child

Minda and Bill Alena, of

Princeton, had always wanted tovolunteer with inner-city chil-dren but it wasnt until three anda half years ago that Minda foundout about The Fresh Air FundsVolunteer Host Family Program.

Bill and I saw the insert inThe New York Times and wethought it was a perfect opportu-nity. Our children were a little bitolder and we could open ourhome to another child for a weekor two, Minda said.

In 2012, Eric from Brooklynvisited the Alenas for the firsttime and he returned last sum-mer for his second visit to Prince-ton.

The Fresh Air Fund, an inde-pendent, not-for-profit agency, hasprovided free summer experi-ences to more than 1.8 millionNew York City children from low-income neighborhoods since 1877.Each summer, more than 4,000inner-city children visit subur-ban, rural and small town com-

munities across 13 states fromVirginia to Maine and Canadathrough The Fresh Air FundsVolunteer Host Family Program.

The Alenas favorite activitiesto do with Eric during his visits

are things that are first-time expe-

riences for him. Minda said, Welike to do things that he wouldntnormally have living in New YorkCity. Things like going to thebeach are experiences we take forgranted but are so special forhim. Eric enjoyed some typicalsummertime activities last Au-gust such as learning to swim andplaying tennis. One of Mindasfondest memories of Erics visitswas when he fed a goat for thefirst time at the petting zoo. Hewas giggling with glee the firsttime he fed a goat from his hand.He couldnt believe that you coulddo that.

When asked what sticks outmost about the Alena familyshosting experience, Minda an-swered, The first night after wepicked him up from the bus thefirst summer he visited we had aBBQ in the backyard. Last sum-mer, when we picked him up oneof the first things he said was arewe going to BBQ tonight? It just

showed me that he really looksforward to just spending timewith us.

Minda speaks highly to herfriends about her familys experi-ence and always encourages

other families to sign up and host

a child. Its just two weeks ofyour entire summer and itssomething a Fresh Air child willnever forget. You dont have to goanywhere special or spend a lot ofmoney; just giving these kids twoweeks out of the city means theworld to them. Eric is so thankfulwhen he comes to visit, he givesus big hugs and its like hes partof the family now. This experi-ence has showed my children thatthere is more to life than just ourlittle town.

The Fresh Air Fund is alwaysseeking host families to enable asmany New York City children aspossible to benefit from a summerexperience outside of the city. Tolearn more about how to becomea host family in the Mercer Coun-ty area, please call Darlene Plum-mer at (609) 902-1806 or visit TheFresh Air Fund online atwww.freshair.org.
