The main and supporting characters of the Hopewell Valley Children Theatres production of Aladdin, Jr. are seen, including Hopewell resi-
dents Tristan Lee, top row, second from left, and his sister Gillian Lee, bottom row, yellow dress.
Childrens theater group performs musical
BY HEATHER FIORE
The Hopewell Sun
The Hopewell Valley Chil-
drens Theatres (HVCT) recent
production of Aladdin, Jr. took
place at Hopewell Valley Central
High Schools Performing Arts
Center and featured a colorful
cast of 32 children from Hopewell
and the surrounding towns.
The musical, which closely fol-
lowed the story of Disneys Al-
addin, and took audiences on a
magical adventure to the ancient
city of Agrabah, debuted on Jan.
19 for a two-day run.
Directed by Hopewell resident
and producer at HVCT Cathy
Sing, Aladdin, Jr. is one of the
four major productions HVCT
will put on this year.
We hadnt done Aladdin in
quite some time, Sing said. We
did it once and we thought itd be
fun to do again. We also had some
costumes and things we could re-
use, so that helped.
Although 32 children may
seem like a sizeable cast, Sing ex-
plained how most of the HVCTs
shows incorporate large casts,
such as its last performance of
Beauty and the Beast, which
starred 60 children.
It depends on the kids and
level of ease, she said. Thats re-
ally what its about to us giving
a place for kids to feel important
and express themselves in a safe

BY HEATHER FIORE
The Hopewell Sun
To utilize specific health serv-
ices and make them available to
residents for a reasonable price,
the Hopewell Township Commit-
tee entered into a shared services
agreement with Hamilton Town-
ship at its meeting on Jan. 14.
The agreement will offer resi-
dents certain sexually transmit-
ted disease (STD) clinic services,
which include everything from
vaccines to testing, and will be ac-
cessible by township residents for
one year from Jan. 1 to Dec. 31.
The committee also passed a
resolution proclaiming January
as "School Board Recognition
Month," something the New Jer-
sey School Boards Association de-
clared for residents to acknowl-
edge the contributions made by
local school board members.
Committee member Michael
Markulec, who has worked exten-
sively with the school board as
former mayor, commented on the
resolution and how it was "well
deserved."
"During my five years as part
of the committee, we developed
an outstanding working relation-
ship with the school board," he
said. "It is not very often where
one governing body actually
takes the time to recognize and
praise another governing body,
nor where one governing body
and another get along. Current
school board president Lisa Wolff
and I worked very closely over the
past couple of years on a variety
of projects, including student
safety, drug and alcohol aware-
ness, as well as some recreation
projects, and it's just an outstand-
ing community win-win situation
for our relationship; that includes
shared service agreements where
we both save money, and planning

Committee updated
on hurricane cleanup
with the police department. I look
forward to continuing to work
with them going forward."
Township administrator Paul
Pogorzelski also briefly updated
the committee on the AshBritt
Environmental process the con-
tractor currently conducting all
hurricane debris cleanup which
is nearing an end.
Pogorzelski detailed how
AshBritt began its final sweep
through the township during the
first week of January, and how all
zones should be fully completed
by the end of the month.
He described how the actual
amount of debris ended up being
less than what the township's ini-
tial estimate was 100,000 cubic
yards and how it only took the
company 30 days to complete,
while it wouldve taken the town-
ships public works department
about one year.
"As it looks, we're going to be
pretty close to the 70,000 cubic
yards," he said. "So, it's $2.6 mil-
lion of work done in 30 days."
Pogorzelski reiterated how
this will cost the average home-
owner around $11 per year for a
five-year period, which will be ad-
justed once the actual costs are fi-
nalized and reported to the town-
ship.

ing the debris cleanup process,

T
he beginning of a new year is
always a good time for everyone
to look ahead, make plans and
figure out the best ways to make the
upcoming months as productive and
positive as possible.
Its no different here at The Sun. We
look forward to 2013 and continuing to
be a part of the communities that we
serve.
Our No. 1 objective is to publish
newspapers and, now, websites that are
a reflection of the values and priorities
of the communities we serve. That has
been our top priority since we began
publishing back in 2004.
That doesnt mean that everyone al-
ways will agree what they see in our
papers or on our websites. Reasonable
people can and often do disagree about
public policy, taxes and much more.
But we remain committed to produc-
ing a product that truly is part of
everyday life. We want to cover the sto-
ries that are important to you. That
might mean that we tell you that your
taxes are going up, or that theres a
fundraiser scheduled at a local school.
Not every story changes the world, but
that doesnt mean that theyre not
worth telling or sharing with the en-
tire community. That includes the
often-overlooked stories about accom-
plishments and good deeds that make
every town special.
To achieve our goal, we need your
help. If you have an event coming up,
tell us about it, and well tell everyone
else. If you know of someone in the
community who has excelled at some-
thing, or who has gone out of his or
her way to better the town, we want to
know about that, too.
We depend on you, our readers, to
shape each weeks edition of The Sun.
That will not change in 2013, or any-
time in the future.
These are your newspapers. We
want you to claim them and help us
cover the news important to you.
in our opinion
Looking forward to a big year
As 2013 moves along, we want to continue to be a part of your lives
2013 and beyond
The Sun newspapers always have
strived to reflect the values and priori-
ties of the communities they serve.
That wont change in 2013. But to
achieve that goal, we need everyones

entire community.
environment and build self-esteem. Our
cornerstone is that we want the kids to feel
good about themselves. Its one big team
not so different than sports because every-
one is important and everyone has a piece,
and they have to depend on each other.
They really have built a comradery with
each other.
In this production of Aladdin, Jr., Sing
cast five narrators to tell the story, while
the other 55 children acted out all scenes
incorporated in the Disney classic.
One of the narrators, 8-year-old
Hopewell resident Gillian Lee, who has
participated in four of HVCTs produc-
tions, explained how she got the chance to
wear multiple hats in Aladdin, Jr.
We tell the entire story and we also get
to design and dance, she said.
The dance number, which Lee is refer-
ring to, showcases all five narrators and
was a special addition to the HVCTs pro-
duction, according to choreographer Jessi-
ca Furlong.
We added one Arabian harem dance in
this show for the five narrators, because
most of them take dance class and are
strong dancers, so we wanted to give them
a feature, she said.
Furlong, a Hopewell native and dance
teacher at Pennington Dance, detailed how
all of the dance numbers in the show var-
ied to showcase all of the different, talent-
ed children in the play.
Because its a live musical, there are
some big dance numbers with the whole
cast and some smaller numbers that we
put some of the more well-trained dancers
in, so kids that take dance class are given
featured dance numbers because thats
something theyre talented at, she said.
One of the most intriguing dance num-
bers for the children, known as the Wow
Bow, was showcased at the end of the mu-
sical as a surprise to the audience, and was
one thing that Lees brother, Tristan, noted
when describing his favorite parts of Al-
addin, Jr.
They love the Wow Bow, Furlong
said. Its a fun, big dance number with
some sort of music thats not from the
show, like something on the radio that sort
of ties in with the show. Its a big surprise
for their parents because a lot of them
keep it a secret to the end; its a fun way to
celebrate at the end.
Aside from noting how much fun the
Wow Bow was, 12-year-old Tristan, who
wants to be an actor when he grows up,
noted the best part about playing the Sul-
tan.
I get to be the leader of everyone, and
Dance numbers varied to showcase talent

its fun being the leader, he said.
Its like Im a real king.
Having also acted in two of the
HVCTs previous shows, Tristan
described the most unique aspect
of Aladdin, Jr.
This setting is very different,
he said.
The setting, which embraced
the feel of another country and
far away land like the setting in
the movie Aladdin, had a very
Arabian-like feel to it, which was
the overall theme of Aladdin,
Jr.
The Arabian theme was por-
trayed through all aspects of the
show, according to Furlong.
Because it has this Arabian
thing going on, I tried to make
some of the numbers have that
feel to them, and Ive never done
that before, she said. I told them
[cast members] that they had to
do things in a very mysterious
way.
Furlong also had the narrators
cater to the Arabian theme,
which Gillian pointed out as one
of her favorite aspects of this
show.
I like that were kind of
spooky, she said. Its unique.

(NAPS) As more and more
young (and old) couples seek
novel wedding sites, theres been
a significant increase in making
wedding memories where Ameri-
cas history was made. And one
such special place is Valley Forge,
in Montgomery County, Pennsyl-
vaniaPhiladelphias biggest
and most affluent bedroom.
Here, amidst the spectacular
backdrop of 3,500-acre Valley
Forge National Historical Park,
the betrothed flock to Washington
Memorial Chapel in search of
open dates for exchanging vows.
One of southeast Pennsylvanias
most popular and majestic wed-
ding sites, the chapels rich deco-
rative elements commemorate
George Washingtons life and the
nations earliest history. Its also
known for its exquisite statuary,
wood carvings and soaring
stained glass windows.
Nearby and nestled among 175
acres of meadows and hills, the
John James Audubon Center at
Mill Grove offers a setting for
magnificent weddings and recep-
tions in any season. Flanked by
50-year-old sugar maples, the
quarter-mile driveway to the cen-
ter offers early hints of the splen-
dor of this 175-acre estate, looking
still very much how Audubon
found it in 1803.
His historic home, set along the
Perkiomen Creek in Audubon,
Pa., is a haven for birds and
wildlifeand photographers. The
wild pear orchard, 19th century
fieldstone barn and winding
creek set a stage for unforgettable
wedding ceremonies in a charm-
ing, new outdoor pavilion.
Green Lane Park, in the north-
west corner of Montgomery
County, comes by its name hon-
estly. The beautiful view across
its lake, from a quaint pavilion,
creates an idyllic canvas for sea-
sonal colors to complement any
nuptials. Dont forget the wide-
angle lens.
Historic Graeme Park trans-
ports visitors and wedding par-
ties back in timeto the 18th cen-
tury. Its Keith Houseonce the
residence of Colonial Pennsylva-
nia governor Sir William Keith
was built in 1722 and has re-
mained virtually intact since the
latter part of that century. Its
sweeping fields, pond and wet-
lands guarantee four-season-pho-
togenic wedding albums.

The first home in America to artist/naturalist John James Audubon has
served as a stately backdrop for many elegant receptions.
Make wedding memories where history was made
(NAPS) More and more
brides and grooms are discover-
ing a delightful new twist on an
old wedding tradition.
Bridal registries have long
been the way for engaged couples
to identify exactly what they
need and want to start their
lives together. Traditionally,
young couples who were estab-
lishing a home together created a
registry chock-full of household
items. Nowadays, however, many
couples prefer a new registry
trend that can help turn the hon-
eymoon they envision into a well-
planned reality.
The increasingly popular hon-
eymoon registry lets friends and
family help the bride and groom
afford a trip to Fiji, the Caribbean
or anywhere in the world they
dream of going. Instead of pur-
chasing an impersonal set of flat-
ware or risking a duplicate gift,
wedding guests can now con-
tribute to unique experiences
that can help make a couples
honeymoon all the more memo-
rable, such as sponsoring a cou-
ples massage, a sunset cruise, a
snorkeling excursion or a helicop-
ter tour.
As one bride, Lisa Dexter John-
son, put it: Our honeymoon in
Hawaii was a once-in-a-lifetime
trip that we will always cherish.
Our friends and family loved the
idea of being able to help us cre-
ate memories that will remind us
of them.
The only major honeymoon
registry service that also offers
full-service, complimentary trav-
el planning is 1-800-Registry. Its a
free online registry that makes it
simple to select unforgettable
honeymoon gifts. The company
will even contribute $200 to get
the honeymoon fund started.
In addition, couples can make
the most of their honeymoon trip
with some proper planning:
Start early. The sooner you
decide where youre going and
where youre staying, the more
likely you are to get what you
want at a good price. It will also
give you time to arrange for pass-
ports and visasthis may take
time, especially if a name change
is involved.
Go later. Many couples
take the time right after their
wedding to settle in and unwind
and plan to take their honeymoon
trip when they have more time or
more money or when the destina-
tion is less expensive or less
crowded.
Get to know the destina-
tion. Check out the weather, the
amenities and the costs. You can
consult with a 1-800-Registry Hon-
eymoon Specialist for all the des-
tination details.
You can create a honeymoon

Honeymoon registry a popular option for brides and grooms
(NAPSA) More and more,
couples now vow to start their
lives together by making a differ-
ence in the lives of others.
Saying I do to a wedding that
benefits a charity is easier than
you might imagine and espe-
cially timely, as many charities
need extra help during a time of
economic downturn.
By the time many couples get
married, they often dont need an
extra toaster but would really ap-
preciate a donation to the charity
of their choice.
Giving is a great way to start
your life together and coming up
with a list can provoke some
meaningful conversations about
values.
Here are five heartwarming
ideas you may want to consider:
1. Feed the hungry. If you
have unopened food and bever-
ages left over from your wedding,
donate them to a nearby food
bank or soup kitchen.
2. Share your flowers. After
the wedding, drop off your flow-
ers at a hospital or nursing home
so others can enjoy them.
3. Buy wedding essentials
from companies that donate to
charities you support.
4. Donate your bridesmaid
dresses to an organization that
supplies prom dresses to girls
who cant afford them.
5. Register your wedding.
Ask your guests to donate to a
charity they identify with you.
You can even suggest a Web site
through which they can donate
a sort of customizable wedding
charity registry.
One site that offers a wedding
registry service features charity
gift cards guests can order. The
site lets brides host a personal-
ized Web page there are a num-
ber of themes from which to
choose which can be used to
send information, e-mail invita-
tions and updates. The charity
gift cards also make great wed-
ding favors.

Following a successful Styro-
foam collection day in November
2012, another recycling event has
been scheduled for Saturday, Feb.
2. This time, the items to be col-
lected will include Styrofoam,
CDs and DVDs, and wine bottle
corks.
Jointly sponsored by the
Hopewell Valley Green Team and
the Pennington Environmental
Commission, these items will be
accepted at the Hopewell Town-
ship Public Works Building from
noon to 3 p.m. Styrofoam packing
material, especially blocks, sheets
and coolers, will be taken to Ray-
Bob Packaging in Bristol, Pa.
Packing peanuts will be accepted
if in a separate bag; however, resi-
dents are encouraged to return
packing peanuts to their favorite
shipping store where they can be
reused immediately. Styrofoam
food containers will not be col-
lected.
Old CDs and DVDs have been
newly added to the list of materi-
als that will be collected. Free
CDs that come in the mail, outdat-
ed software, and DVDs with cor-
rupted files can really pile up!
This is a chance to get rid of
those disks and still keep them
out of the landfill. With help from
the East Amwell Recycling Com-
mittee, these disks will be deliv-
ered to Back Thru the Future
Technology Disposal in Franklin.
Plastic jewel cases will also be ac-
cepted if they are empty and have
no paper inserts.
Patrons of the Pennington
Farmers Market have been bring-
ing their wine bottle corks to the
Market for years. Now, the Green
Team is reaching out to the whole
Valley and inviting them to recy-
cle their corks. They should be
made of real cork not synthetic
since they will be sent to Yemm
and Hart, a cork tile manufactur-
er in Fredericktown, MO.
All Hopewell Valley residents
and businesses are welcome to
participate. Materials be deliv-
ered on Feb. 2 to the Hopewell
Township Public Works Building
at 203 Washington Crossing-Pen-
nington Road, which is next door
to the Township Municipal Build-
ing look for the solar panels!
The snow date for this event will
be Saturday, Feb. 9. Check the
Green Team website for updates

Mercer County has reduced the
speed limits in front of Bear Tav-
ern Elementary School
for the first time in several
decades.
The new limits, which are 30
mph when lights are flashing, in-
dicating children are present, and
45 mph at all other times, are now
in effect and have been posted, ac-
cording to Township Engineer
Paul Pogorzelski.
Formerly, the limits were 35
mph when lights were flashing
and 50 mph at other times.
Mercer County Freeholders
voted to reduce the limits near
the school on Bear Tavern
Road/Route 579, which is owned
and controlled by the county, in
response to identical resolutions
passed by the Hopewell Valley
Board of Education and the
Hopewell Township Committee
in November.
The School Board initiated
the effort to lower the limits, and
we were happy to assist them in
this move to make the county
road in front of Bear Tavern a
safer place for our students, said
Township Committee member
Michael Markulec, who was
mayor of the township when the
resolutions were passed.
Before presenting the resolu-
tions, school district officials
were advised by county officials
to seek a two-step reduction near
the school, lowering the limits to
30 mph when lights are flashing
this year, and seeking a further
reduction, to 25 mph, the follow-
ing year.
Some Bear Tavern area resi-
dents have expressed frustration
with the two-step process.
However, county officials ad-
vised this as a way to align the ef-
fort with current traffic industry
practices for reducing speed lim-
its.
These reductions put us on
the path toward reducing the
speed further, Superintendent of
Schools Tom Smith said. We will
continue to monitor that
progress.
Currently, the county controls
the use of the flashing lights in
front of the school.
But this spring, a new system
will be put in place that allows the
school district to have more con-
trol over the duration and timing
of the lights, according to
information that district
officials received from the
county.
School safety is the top priori-
ty of our Board, and we appreci-
ate working in partnership to ac-
complish this mission, Board of
Education President Lisa Wolff
said.
Drop in any time on Tuesday,
Jan. 29 between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m.

Care: Take Control of Your

pal Building. No registration is
