Somers Point is something special

By JOHN L. JACK GLASSER
Somers Point Mayor
One of my earliest memories of Somers Point
is driving down Shore Road with my family,
crossing the old trolley bridge by Somers
Mansion and being in awe of the beauty of
Great Egg Harbor Bay. Ill always remember
that all of a sudden there was the bay, and
how big it appeared to me then as a 9-yearold, not realizing that just a few short years
later I would be moving here and getting to
see the sight every day.
Its funny how much things have changed
since then. The trolley bridge is gone; so
are Tony Marts, Bayshores and the famous
Defeo Duck at Bethel and New roads. But
there are so many things that make Somers
Point special that are still here, and most
important are the people who live, work and
visit our town.
We have lots to be proud of in Somers
Point. We have some of the best restaurants
on the entire Eastern Seaboard, a first-class
medical facility in Shore Medical Center, an
outstanding golf course in Greate Bay County Club, our Bayfront Historical District, our
school system, the Somers Point Police De-
partment, and the Somers Point Fire Department, just to name a few.
We are so lucky to have these things in
our town, in addition to Kennedy Park and
Morrow Beach. When you think about it, you
have to admit that Somers Point is a special
place.
Even after Mother Nature threw a derecho
and Hurricane Sandy at us, we are still here.
What makes this town so special is that its
people are special.
Our founders had the foresight to build on
this beautiful piece of land overlooking Great
Egg Harbor. It has been the responsibility of
all those who came after the Somers family
to improve on what we have here, and I think
we are on the right track.
Our police, fire and emergency management personnel did their jobs and more for
the well-being of the town. Our public works
department worked countless hours to ensure that the debris from the storms was
cleaned up. All of these people have my
heartfelt gratitude and that of City Council for
everything that they do. To top it off, the fire
departments and emergency management
are volunteers who bring new meaning to the
word dedication.
John L. Jack Glasser

When people ask me why Im so proud of
the city and of being mayor, all I have to do is
stop and look around. Its because we have
something great here in Somers Point.

Northeld
North
eld has much to offer
By ERLAND V.L. CHAU
Northfield Mayor
Everyone has a special affinity for the
place they call home. Northfield is has much
to make people proud to call it their hometown.
The city was incorporated in 1905 and has
a population of more than 8,500 population.
It calls itself the Gateway to the Shore,
having roads and a pedestrian and bike path
leading to many of our shoreline and beach
communities.
There are many great restaurants (just
ask Guy Fieri, famed restaurateur and host
of Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives) and retail
stores to shop.
We are especially proud of our Birch
Grove Park and recreation areas. A beautiful and pristine nature park with more than
271 acres of heavily wooded land, dotted
with freshwater lakes stocked with fish, more
than 50 campsites, exercise and nature
trails, a large playground, a bandstand used
for our summer concerts and dedicated areas for our recreational sports league teams.
Northfield is the home of the Atlantic City
Country Club. The famed club was estab-
lished in 1897 and has been at the forefront

of the sport, both nationally and internationally. The prestigious and historic Atlantic City
Country Club proudly carries the distinctions
of the birthplace of the birdie, as well as
being the site where the term Eagle was
coined.
Our Northfield Community School, which
serves grades prek-eight, was built in 1998
for $18 million. The state-of-the art, high
tech school continues to provide quality educational programs and experiences, and
teaching our children the attributes need to
become successful students and future leaders. Their motto is, we are a district second
to none.
Lastly, we have an outstanding network
of city employees, residents and volunteers
with diverse backgrounds that work together
to make our city a great place to live. Their
work and dedication to serve on our many
youth sports leagues, our volunteer fire company, school PTO, and many more community service projects and organizations have
helped strengthen our community and family
life.
Please come and visit our city and enjoy
the many attributes and experiences that it
Erland V.L. Chau

has to offer people of all ages. I welcome
you to become a part of Northfield.
Recreation, education and family

are Linwoods guiding principles
By RICHARD DePAMPHILIS
Linwood Mayor
Linwood is one of the most beautiful cities in Atlantic County. It is unique in the
sense that, unlike our neighbors, Linwood
has remained mostly a residential community.
Nestled in between the bay to the east
and Patcong Creek to the west is a city of
7,500 residents that enjoys excellent services, safe streets, a quality school system
and a bike path that runs the full length of
the city.
The bike path is home to our elementary
school, middle school and our youth recreation fields and facilities at Memorial Park
that includes baseball and softball, soccer,
football, hockey and lacrosse.

Linwood City Council continues to maintain the services that the residents enjoy
while always trying to adhere to the principles inscribed on our city seal, recreation,
education, family. These values are considered the most important to us and the
reason most of our residents moved to our
beautiful city.
From city employees to sports coaches,
volunteers on our boards and committees
and to the residents themselves, we live by
these principles. No matter young or old, all
our residents work toward the same goals
and common interests; recreation for all
ages, a quality education for our children
and a safe place to raise our families.
Linwood fits the bill and then some.

Cultural Committee recognizes

Northeld
North
eld residents and their history
Begun in 1972 and rst known as the Northeld Bicentennial Committee, its mission was
to help the city recognize our countrys 200th
anniversary.
Today the Northeld Cultural Committee
continues to recognize Northeld residents
and their history through ongoing maintenance
and improvement of Northelds Museum, the
citys annual Fourth of July parade, and the
annual summer concert series at the Bandstand in Birch Grove Park.
The rst Fourth of July parade was held
in 1975. Tradition honors the Citizen of the
Year, the Years First Baby (born to Northeld parents), and Miss July 4th. Citizens
honored have included Augusta Bruyns, Dr.
Peter Marvel, Charles M Kresge, and Mac
Kreutz,
In 1975 the committee reclaimed the old city
library (1938-1969) from the municipal yard
and placed it behind city hall with the intent of
turning it into a city museum. Prior to becoming the citys library, the building had a history
of several different uses including a company

ofce and then a meeting house for a small
social group of women known as the Sunshine
Club.
City Hall became the new home of the
Northeld Library in 1969. The Northeld Bicentennial Museum opened in 1976.
In 1985 the museum was moved to Birch
Grove Park. In 1996 the Casto House (circa
1830) was donated to the museum by the
Doerr family (Charles and children, Pat and
John). It reopened in 2000 with a foyer joining library and Casto House, and a new name.
Roy W. Clark is the curator of the Northeld
Museum and Casto House.
Museum collections include Evelyn Ryon
Collins obituary collection, Mill Road School
class pictures from 1895, Mill Road School
memorabilia, band uniforms and instruments,
year 2000 city-wide photos taken by 25 volunteers, and much more.
The newest addition to the museum complex is Bob Webbs shed, a wonderful collec-
tion of model airplanes and ships that it took

him years to make. It is worth seeing
The museum is collecting family group photos. If you have a photo that includes your family of Northeld parents and grandparents, the
museum would like to copy it for its collection.
The Northeld Bandstand was built by Jack
English of Northeld with city funds provided to
the committee. On July 4, 1976, Larry Ferrari,
well known Philadelphia organist, played the
rst concert in the bandstand in Birch Grove
Park. Concerts are held there during the summer months.
The bandstand is available for weddings
and other events. Contact City Clerk Mary
Canesi at 609-641-2832, ext. 125 or via the
city website; cityofnortheld.org for information and to obtain any necessary or required
permits, and for information on becoming a
member as well.
Members are appointed yearly by City
Council and volunteers are always welcome.

Mainland anglers enjoy the best of both worlds

By HEATHER HOLTZAPFEL JAMES
South Jersey is a hub of water activities, fishing being one
of the most popular things to
do at the shore, and there are
plenty of options when it comes
to enjoying this fun, family pastime.
Mainland anglers especially have the best of both worlds
with easy access to fresh and
saltwater fishing. Well-stocked
lakes and ponds provide plenty
of action for freshwater fishing,
and the start of flounder season
has anglers casting their lines in
the back bays.
Below are some of the more
popular fishing locations in
Northfield, Somers Point and
Linwood. Some are more family
friendly than others, but all provide action.

Bike path keeps

the Mainland communities
BY THE BAY
connected
Although the Mainland communities of Northeld, Linwood and Somers

Point have their distinct qualities, they are connected by a common thread
that weaves through the towns much like its predecessor, the Shore Fast
Line, connected them in the past.
The bike path extends the full length of the three towns, from the southern
end of Somers Point to the Northeld city line at Dolphin Avenue.
At its Northeld end, the bike path connects across Dolphin Avenue into
Pleasantville. And with the Route 52 causeway bridge in Somers Point allows bicycle riders and pedestrians to make a very scenic trip across the
bridge to Ocean City.
Extending the path is under consideration in all three communities. Linwood, Northeld and Somers Point are each considering plans that, if approved, would add new areas to explore, such as the waterfront in Linwood,
or a connection to the parkway bridge in Somers Point heading south into
Cape May County.
The Shore Fast Line was in use until 1954, bringing passengers and
goods to area residents. The train took high-school-age Linwood students to
school every day, as they attended Pleasantville High School, until Mainland
Regional was opened in 1964. Over time, ridership dwindled and the train
ceased operation.
The bike path eventually took its place starting rst in Somers Point in
1974. Linwood followed with their path in 1976. The Linwood stretch is
named after long time Linwood Mayor George K. Francis who served from
1952-19771. The bike path continued to allow people to move freely from
one place to another.
The bike path is part of the New Jersey Rails to Trails program, which
supports the conversion of former railroad tracks to bike trails. The Linwood
portion of the bike path was one of the programs early success stories in
the state.
The next phase of the bike path headed south from the Linwood border
to meander through Somers Point. The nal phase headed north from Oakcrest Avenue at the Linwood-Northeld border to Dolphin Avenue.
Street lights were added the entire length of the bike path, allowing locals to enjoy a walk or bike ride to such stops as Maxs Market at Jackson
and Fuae avenues, Our Lady of Sorrows Church, the Linwood Market, All
Wars Memorial Park, Linwood Arboretum, Belhaven Avenue Middle School,
Seaview Avenue Elementary School, Hartshorn Park in Linwood, and Dawes
Avenue School, Fehrle Field, the American Legion, Veterans Memorial, and
City Hall in Somers Point.
To increase safety for all who use the bike path, all three towns have added stop signs at every cross street along way.
Following the lead of the Mainland area bike path, Atlantic County made
it a priority to create a bikeway that allows riders access to all ends of the
county on two wheels. The county bike path picks up behind the Harbor
Square and provides a long and pleasant ride all the way to Mays Landing.

Somers Point
Located just off MacArthur
Boulevard, Kennedy Park is one
of Somers Points most unique
places.
The park is home to what are
believed to be the only coastal
bluffs in the state. Because of its
uncommon topography, it was
called High Bluffs Park until the
mid-1960s. The bluff is 12 feet
high and runs along the Great
Egg Harbor Bay, offering a view
across the bay to Ocean City.
JFK Park is one of the few locations large enough to accommodate city events. It is used
for the Good Old Days Festival,
the citys annual summer season
send-off, this year scheduled for
Saturday, Sept. 5.
Kennedy Park sustained damage during Hurricane Sandy, but

neatly tucked away off Burton

Boy Scouting holds timeless appeal

By STEVE PRISAMENT
Staff Writer
Although they have embraced technology, the
Boy Scouts of America remain about as low-tech
a group as can be, and still survive in the 21st century.
Maybe thats because most of its activities are
about survival: camping, cooking in the wild, helping others and, of course, rst aid values and
skills that will always be timeless.
The three Mainland troops one each in Northeld, Linwood and Somers Point have between
20 and 30 members each. And theyre all focused
on community service and good, old-fashioned
fun.
It really is as fun as you want to make it and it
is great to get them away from the X-box and computers, Somers Point Troop 55 Assistant Scoutmaster Rich Heim said.
Camping, hiking, shing and community involvement remain the hallmarks of the Boy Scouts,
already a number of years into a second century
of service.
There are three citizenship badges for community, nation and world. To become an Eagle
Scout, one has to earn 21 merit badges some
are high-tech, but most are of the cooking, camp-
ing, and swimming variety. Community projects

are required, including an Eagle Scout project
where the candidate directs his fellow Scouts rather than performing all the work.
Heim said helping the community is what it is all
about. Whether it is weeding at a park or planting
trees for Arbor Day, the Scouts are always willing
to help out.
He said the Scouts not only earn badges for activities such as swimming and citizenship, they also
learn basic skills such as knot tying and cooking
And they love to put their skills to the test. They
go on survival weekends and are judged on areas
such as shelter building and re making.
Each year Troop 55 goes away for a week, and
Heim said, the Scouts decide where to go.
Contact Heim at 609-677-4617.
Troop 36 was chartered April 1, 1936, by Central United Methodist Church, 5 West Marvin Ave.,
Linwood.
There is no record of Troop 39s scoutmasters
prior to 1950, but since then the leaders have been
Harry Gessner, 1950-1993; Jim Heisler, 19932001; Bill Walsh, 2001-2002; Dr. Robert Lee
Courtney, 2002-2003; Doug Stroz, 2004 2011;
and Mark Thompson, 2011-present.
Thompson said he tries to let the Scouts choose
their activities.
I want the boys to have fun, he said. It is about

working together, creating a bond, and learning
about Scouting.
Trips include rafting and an annual week of
summer camp.
Scouting is about a bunch of kids getting together who love the outdoors, Thompson said.
Some like skiing, others like shing. Our troop
likes camping. The kids pick where they want to
go.
Contact Thompson at 609-742-5551.
Scoutmaster Don Edwards said Northeld
Troop 72 is involved in many activities with community involvement being the top priority.
Over the years the troop has participated in
activities including weeding the Tyler Gordon Garden at Birch Grove Park and planting trees there,
weeding and mulching the yard at Good Shepherd
United Methodist Church of Northeld, helping with
Northeld library book drives, participating in food
drives and cleaning up the bike path.
Edwards summed up what the Boy Scouts are
all about:
The Scouting program is really to teach them
leadership, Edwards said. Help people, and build
a better community.

Gildas Club offers free support

for people living with cancer
Gildas Club South Jersey provides free
support for women, men, teens and children living with cancer, as well as their families and friends.
Its mission is to ensure that all people
impacted by cancer are empowered by
knowledge, strengthened by action and
sustained by community.
It offers support groups, lectures, workshops and social events as a supplement
to medical care in a warm and welcoming,
home-like setting. Its programs are open
to all members and everyone impacted by
cancer.
The local non-prot organization, with
ofces at 700 New Road in Linwood, is dependent on donations and 100 percent of
every dollar donated supports its program
and members.
Gildas Club is named in honor of comedian Gilda Radner who was diagnosed with
ovarian cancer in 1986. She got involved
with a support community believing that all
people with cancer and their families and
friends should have free access to social
and emotional support. After she died in

1989, her husband, Gene Wilder, vowed to
make her vision a reality.
Wilder and Joanna Bull, Radners psychotherapist, set out to create a network
of Gildas Clubs. The rst club opened its
signature red door in New York City in June
1995.
In 1997, Bull came to South Jersey as
guest speaker of the Ruth Newman Shapiro
Cancer and Heart Fund. Her presentation
was received with enthusiasm and support.
RNS raised the seed money necessary
to establish a local afliate and on Jan. 7,
2003, Gilda Radners dream came true for
South Jersey.
Gildas keeps that dream going through
fund-raising efforts including:
Cocktails by the Beach at One Atlantic
on Thursday, June 4$85 per person in advance;
Movers, Shakers, Difference Makers
Luncheon at the Palm on Friday, Oct. 2,
$150 per person, and;
Brunch at The Knife & Fork Inn on Sun-
day, Dec. 6, $100 per person.

Active trustees are Isabel Allen; Margaret Avagliano, MD; John Baker, MD; Eddie
Davis; Eileen Gantert; Carla Glass; James
Greenberg, Esq.; Scott Hafetz, chairman;
Donna Howell; Barbara Hulsizer; Andrew
Kerstein, vice president of development;

Shore Medical Center is much more

than a community hospital
When Shore Medical describes itself to the community, the emphasis is on its people.
At Shore Medical Center kindness complements an extraordinary level of clinical sophistication, notes the about section on the hospitals
web page. Our people are the foundation of this
modern medical center where advanced technology harmonizes with compassionate care.
It also places a major emphasis on measureable quality standards. For example:
Shore is also proud to be recognized by the
Leapfrog Group with an A grade in its Fall 2014
and Spring 2015 Hospital Safety Score, which
rates how well hospitals protect patients from errors, injuries and infections.
It is the only hospital in New Jersey and one of
66 healthcare organizations worldwide to earn designation as a Planetree Patient-Centered Hospital.
Shore also takes pride in its accreditation by
the Joint Commission, which provided the medical
center with an advanced certication as a primary
stroke center, and the Gold Seal of Approval for its
spine surgery and hip and knee joint replacement
programs.
Shore Medical Center partners with Advanced
Radiology Solutions (ARS) to provide advanced diagnostic imaging services. ARS has been accredited by the Joint Commission for its teleradiology
services and is the only one within 100 miles of
Shore Medical Center to earn this recognition for
high quality services.
This fall, Shore was recognized by the Joint
Commission as a 2013 Top Performer on Key
Quality Measures, including heart attack, heart fail-
ure, pneumonia and surgical care.

Shore Medical Center is home to six centers
of excellence for cancer, cardiovascular, neurosciences, spine and orthopedic, emergency and
maternity and pediatric care.
In addition, it is a member of the Jefferson Neuroscience Network and has physicians on staff
from the Rothman Institute.
In 2011, Shore opened its Pediatric Care Center, the rst of its kind in New Jersey, and its stateof-the-art Surgical Pavilion and campus expansion.
The Shore Medical Center Foundation (see
www.GivetoShore.org) creates and implements
philanthropic programs that support the mission of
Shore Medical Center.
As Somers Points largest employer, Shore
Medical Center is committed to enhancing the so-
cial and economic success of the entire community.

The hospital provides more than 1,500 jobs directly, and thousands more indirectly through partnerships, afliations, and a concerted effort to use
local vendors whenever possible.
Much more than a community hospital, with
Shore Physicians Group, Shore Urgent Care,
Shore Quality Partners, and its afliations with
Penn Medicine, Mayo Medical Laboratories, St.
Christophers Hospital for Children, Onsite Neonatal Partners, the Jefferson Neuroscience Network,
and the Rothman Institute, the community has
convenient access to high quality care like never
before.
For more information about Shore Medical Center, see www.shoremedicalcenter.org.
SPBA promotes business and community interests

The Somers Point Business Association has
served as the voice of city and area businesses since 1983, striving to promote, protect,
and support the development of a strong business environment.
During the past 32 years, the SPBA has left
its footprints across Somers Point by promoting business, community and social interests.
For example, the SPBA created Business
School Partnership, which has grown into the
Somers Point Education Foundation and created a $200,000 endowment and contributes

County services help seniors

stay active and independent
By LAURA STETSER
Staff Writer
For senior citizens residing in Northeld, Linwood
and Somers Point, there is an abundance of opportunities and services available, from accommodation to recreation to medical care.
Those who are seeking to maintain an independent lifestyle while dealing with physical issues can
take advantage of Atlantic Countys Fix-It program,
which was established to enable residents over the
age of 60 to remain in their own home by providing
safety features such as handrails or making minor
home repairs.
For information or assistance call 888-426-9243.
Staff members knowledgeable in a variety of programs are available during regular working hours.
Established social service resources include
Pharmaceutical Assistance to the Aged and Disabled and the Senior Gold prescription drug discount program. There are also options in regard to
transportation, home-delivered meals and adult day
care.
The Ofce of Home Care is a case-by-case program that extends outreach services to seniors who
prefer to remain social members of the community

rather than live in a long-term care facility.
As elderly members of the community require
more assistance with everyday activities, unpaid
caregivers often play a large role. Atlantic County
offers support for them, too, through an education
program designed to help people increase their
effectiveness as caregivers. The various courses
include skilled nursing services and physical, occupational and speech therapy.
The county Department of Intergenerational
Services has a contract with Cape-Atlantic Legal
Services allowing for free legal assistance to low-income elderly and disabled residents. According to
the countys social services website, Legal Services
does not represent defendants in criminal cases or
those looking to le a lawsuit, but will provide assistance when it comes to domestic situations, landlord-tenant issues, wills, food stamp appeals and
consumer fraud.
To schedule an appointment call 609-348-4200.
The countys elderly care efforts include mental
and physical health services geared toward senior
citizens. The medical day care program is structured
to provide seniors who are physically or cognitive-

ly impaired with supervision in a protective setting

during particular periods of the day.
The county Division of Recreation and Social
Activities is a resource for seniors who are looking
to stay actively engaged in the community. Seniors
can use their own transportation or arrange for the
free county senior bus to transport them to and
from the Egg Harbor Township Community Center, where county senior programs are held. Rides
are also provided on a rst-come, rst-served basis
for doctor appointments, trips for dialysis or other
medical treatment for those who qualify. Call 609645-5910 to determine eligibility or 609-272-8179 to
arrange for transportation.
Offerings at this location include hot lunch, bingo,
and classes in art, computer and movement. Special events are regularly scheduled.
The division plans and organizes events and trips
for senior citizens.
Senior groups may contact the division for a
schedule of upcoming events and to suggest ideas
for future activities and outings. Call 609-645-7700,
ext. 4353.

Renee Johnson and daughter Katie, 3, and Beth Kukorlo and son John, also
3, all from Egg Harbor Township enjoy a sunny day on the causeway.
Ken and Crystal Groblewsky of Mays Landing enjoy catching bluesh and
stripers from a causeway shing spot.
Revamped causeway has become

an attraction for outdoors enthusiasts
By CHARLIE PRITCHARD
For many years Route 52, a state highway
that runs from Route 9 in Somers Point to Ninth
Street in Ocean City, was a trafc nightmare, especially in the summer.
It included a trafc circle as well as two antiquated drawbridges that opened frequently for
boaters. Motorists fumed while waiting in long
lines of shore trafc. It was hardly a recreation
mecca for those looking to walk, run or cycle between the two towns.
After years of delays, construction began on a
new bridge in September 2006. It took nearly six
years, but in May of 2012 the 2.74 mile causeway was completed, with all four lanes opened
to trafc. While there is no doubt that the trafc
ow has dramatically improved, another benet
is highly visible practically every day of the year.
Those who originally planned the project had
the foresight to consider more than just vehicle
trafc ow. In addition to the trafc lanes, the
project also called for the construction of shing
areas, boat ramps, a path for runners, walkers
and cyclists, and a visitor center with a scenic
overlook on the Ocean City side.
While some questioned the $400 million price
tag, there is no doubt that it has benetted motorists, business owners on both sides of the bridge
and the hundreds who cross it daily by foot or
bicycle for recreational purposes.
Bridge regulars Renee Johnson and Beth Ku-
korlo of Egg Harbor Township enjoy the scenery

while pushing their children, Katie and John, in a
stroller on the causeway.
We love walking the bridge, Johnson said. It
is really hard pushing the stroller on the hills and
it makes for a great workout.
This has become a favorite route for us, Kukorlo said. It is very safe because cars are not a
concern on the walking path.
A group of ve young cyclists zipped by them
as they spoke, preparing to make the long climb
that would reward them with a view of the Ocean
City Boardwalk and the ocean. That view reminds veteran Ocean City publicist Mark Soifer
of an amusement ride.
When you climb that last hill and see the
ocean and the Ferris wheel on the Boardwalk,
it is like being on a roller coaster, Soifer said,
adding that the bridge has become a major tourist attraction.
It is the best physical improvement I have
seen in my 44 years in this position, he said.
The state really did a wonderful job with this
project.
Before a recent hip replacement limited his
running mileage, he enjoyed participating in the
Trail of Two Cities 5K race that takes place each
November on the causeway. The annual event
starts at the Ocean City Transportation Center
at 9th Street and Haven Avenue, and ends at
Kennedy Park in Somers Point.
Soifer, the brains behind such treasured
Ocean City events as the Doo Dah Parade,

Miss Crustacean contest and scores of others,
would like to see special events take place on
the causeway itself.
It is such a natural location for that, he said.
On the other side of the bridge, Somers Point
Mayor Jack Glasser is also pleased with the outcome of the project.
We no longer see the trafc tie-ups because
of the trafc circle and the drawbridges, Glasser
said. As a history buff, I liked the circle, but since
this project has been completed businesses in
our city have benetted from the smoother trafc
ow. Many people from Ocean City now travel
into our town to enjoy what our restaurants have
to offer.
The causeway has also benetted those who
enjoy casting a line into the bay. Ken and Crystal
Groblewsky of Mays Landing come to the area
as often as possible.
Right now we are catching bluesh and stripers, Ken Groblewsky said. We have been to
the Longport pier and also to Brigantine, but we
love this site because of the easy access and
that it is so nice at night when the lights are on.
Realizing the popularity of the recreational
opportunities the causeway affords, the Ocean
City Chamber of Commerce will soon market a
T-shirt that will be available at the Visitor Center.
It is likely to become a big seller for those anxious to proclaim the shirts slogan, I Conquered
the Causeway.

Northeld
North
eld Library brings the neighborhood together
The Otto Bruyns Public Library serves the City
of Northeld by providing essential services to the
public as well as a multitude of creative, cooperative and community sustaining programs within
the neighborhood.
In 2014 the library offered the Northeld community new materials, classes and programs in
addition to classic library events like the book and
bake sale. In the coming year it hopes to improve
on some of those educational and entertainment
opportunities as well as offer more cutting-edge
library experiences. The library has become the
place to bring the neighborhood together and to
broaden cultural perspectives.
In 2015 the librarys goals are to continue providing books, DVDs, audiobooks, ebooks and
magazines for the community; offer a wider range
of cultural programming; increase the types of
technology and tech training available at the library; and continue to offer unparalleled educational and entertainment experiences to the public
for free. The library seeks to promote life-long
learning, community engagement and positive
citizenship.
A Little Lending Library was recently added at
Birch Grove Park. Free Internet access is also
available at the library. As more government services are limited to online applications and support, look forward to free computer classes offered
by the librarys newest employee certied in Microsoft Ofce instruction.

The library will continue with weekly groups
such as mahjong, yoga, Bring Your Own Baby
time and knitting, sewing, and crafty gatherings.
Monthly adult events will include hosting the senior
luncheon and poetry for seniors.
The library looks forward to breaking reading records for the summer reading program and in October participating again in 24 Hour Comics Day.
For children and students, weekly preschool
story time and LEGO club will continue throughout
the year. A generous donation to the LEGO Club
has allowed the library to purchase kits through
LEGO Education to advance a curriculum to improve the club. Stay tuned for coding classes for
the kids as well as other opportunities to learn,
play and experiment with new technologies.
The library looks forward to coordinating efforts again with the Northeld Police Department
to hold a bike rodeo event this summer. Also,
watch for family dance parties, a super hero party,
a mustache celebration, side walk chalk competition and more exciting and unique opportunities.
The library will be reaching out to teens to offer
quality creative, supportive, educational and entertaining programs for high school students as well.
Expect to see the library oat in the Fourth of
July parade and a table at National Night Out as
well as the return of our poetry festival in June.

Working closely with the Northeld Library and
the director Aubrey Gerhardt is the Friends of
the Northeld Library. The group holds two bake
and book sales each year and sponsors several
events including the Little Princess Party and the
Pirates Party and raises money in support of the
library with events like the annual spring tea.
We support the library nancially and we also
help with extra hands at their many events, said
Heather Mellon, president of the Friends group.
We have a good group of people and a great time
at the library events.
The new community room inside the library has
provided the Friends a great space for their book
and bake sale along with all of their other events
that draw a large group.
The Friends of the Northeld Library is open to
anyone who would like to join; dues are $5 annually for an individual, $10 for a family and $100 for
a lifetime membership.
Meetings are held the rst Thursday of each
month at 6:30 p.m. in the library. Whether you can
attend the meetings, you can still be a friend by
supporting the library nancially.
To join or to get more information call Jean at
609-272-1142.
The library is located at 241 W Mill Road. Call

The Atlantic County Historical Society:

Where history comes to life
The Atlantic County Historical Society, founded in 1913 by several local
women and incorporated in 1915,
operates by the motto; Where Atlantic County history comes to life, and
provides a vast resource for research
and study.
When you enter the building,
erected in 1968, you will be warmly
greeted by knowledgeable and willing
volunteers who will guide you expertly
through your search.
The non-lending library contains
the largest repository of historical and
genealogical documents in Atlantic
County. In addition to printed books,
it contains deeds, maps, wills, diaries,
letters, ships logs, school roll books,
church and cemetery records, marriage and obituary notices, census records, local city directories and phone
books dating back to the 1800s and
local newspapers dating back to the
1700s.
Library research is free for society
members, but there is a daily research

fee of $5 for non-members.
Aside from the genealogical library,
the building houses a well-maintained
museum containing donated objects
from residents throughout Atlantic
County. The curator or volunteer on
duty will guide you through a trip back
in time as you view the many interesting artifacts.
Some of the more interesting
artifacts include a Dufeld Clock,
a hand-crocheted cap to protect a
horses ears from ies during parades
and ceremonial events, a bath tub
used weekly on Saturday nights to
bathe the entire family; starting from
the man in the family to oldest child
down and nally the lady of the house,
period clothing, a loom and an entire
bedroom set up to replicate a sleeping
room from the past right down to the
chamber pot.
The third oor of the Atlantic County Historical Society takes one back
to the ship building industry in Atlantic

County. You will see many of the tools
used during that era to build a ship,
paintings, an Atlantic City display and;
currently under construction, a Sen.
Frank S. Farley memorial room which,
among other things, contains the desk
he occupied in Trenton during his tenure as New Jersey state senator.
Aside from internal attractions,
the ACHS has an active outreach
program. Every three months a new
display is taken to the Atlantic County
Court House in Mays Landing so that
their employees and visitors can learn
about our countys history. ACHS
also has speakers who are invited to
different service organizations with
their power point presentations about
different phases of our history.
There is a quarterly newsletter and
an annual yearbook.
In 2007 the ACHS began participating in the Veterans History Project
through the Library of Congress in
Washington, D.C. The VHP Team

interviews veterans of all eras and
all branches of the service. They are
now approaching nearly 300 interviews.
Yearly, the rst Saturday before
Veterans Day, a meet and greet program is held to honor those vets interviewed during that year and they are
presented with a copy of their interview at the event.
There is a small but active program committee that puts on events
throughout the year; in the building
at 907 Shore Road, Somers Point,
and in other locations throughout the
county.
The public is invited to come in and
make History come to life.
The ACHS building is open weekly
Wednesday through Saturday from
10 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
Call 609-927-5218 for more information or see atlanticcountyhistoricalsocietynj.org.
Taking on Somers Point

preservation on many fronts
When dening its mission the
Somers Point Historical Society
breaks it down into four distinct elements:
A. Bring together those people
interested in the history of Somers
Point, New Jersey understanding
that our community is basic to our
democratic way of life and that it
gives us a better understanding of
our state and nation promoting a
better appreciation of our American
heritage.
B. Acquire printed materials,
manuscripts, artifacts, and other
materials pertinent to the history of
Somers Point.
C. Provide for archival preservation of such materials and for its accessibility for all who wish to peruse.
D. Undertake the preservation
of historic buildings, monuments,
and markers.
This ambitious undertaking began
in 1987 during efforts to preserve
two older buildings from demolition.
It reached a milestone in 2004 when
the Somers Point Historical Museum
opened to the public. Since then they
have been honored by community

groups, received grants, and continue to promote local history through
programs, sponsor Richard Somers
Day each September, and develop special events. Other upcoming
events include a Duke O; Fluke boat
trip in June and a classic car show
Oct. 17.
If you have an interest in South
Jersey trolley pictures, Tony Marts, or
local theatre in Somers Point, stop in
to the Somers Point Historical Museum at 745 Shore Road. It has more
than 4,000 pictures easily accessible
and in displays.
In charge at the Somers Point
Historical Society are Sally Hastings,
president; Jim Foreman, vice president; Jeanne Carlson, secretary; and
Carol Halvorson, treasurer.
The museum opens each June
to September on Saturdays from 10
a.m. to 1 p.m., and in July and August
from 7 to 9 p.m. Tuesdays.

Northeld
North
eld Community School puts children rst
rst
The Northeld Community
School at 2000 Mill Road is home to
more than a thousand students.
The elementary school on the rst
oor houses prekindergarten through
fourth grade with Maureen Vaccaro
as principal. On the second oor is
the middle school, where Principal
Glenn Robbins oversees grades
fth through eight. Robert Garguilo
serves as interim superintendent of
the Northeld School District.
The Northeld Community School
opened in 1998. Prior to that time,
Northeld students attended neighborhood schools: the Kresge School
on Oak Avenue, the Mill Road
School, the Mount Vernon Avenue
School and the Locuson School on
Burton Avenue. The NCS was built
on the grounds of the Mill Road
School at New and Mill roads, and
the neighborhood schools were sold.
The Locuson School is now home
to the Yale School, a rst-through12th-grade private school for students from around the tri-county
area.
The former Kresge School is now
home to Coastal Learning Center,
a rst-through-grade-12 school for
students with cognitive and developmental challenges. They are in
their fourth year in the former Kresge
School and have students from
across southern New Jersey.
NCS has the Olweus anti-bullying
program in place, starting in the elementary grades. The middle school
has become a Renaissance school,
part of the popular character education program to bring about positive
changes in school by rewarding students for making good choices, both
in and out of the classroom.
As part of its Renaissance community service programs, NCS students have been good neighbors to
Sister Jeans Kitchen in Atlantic City
making hundreds of peanut butter
and jelly sandwiches for the homeless, and they go several times a
year to help in the kitchen and serve
lunch.
The middle school has in place
the Talk About It program, which
gives seventh- and eighth-grade students an opportunity to anonymously
reach out to teachers. Students can
report an incident or look for guidance from a faculty member. The
program was instituted to help battle
bullying at the school and has been
very successful.
The school has also instituted a

mentoring program that teams the
seventh-grade students with fourthgrade students that has benetted
both groups by getting them better
prepared for the middle school experience and reminding seventh-grade
students of the importance helping
others and being a good role model.
The fourth-grade classrooms piloted the use of ChromeBooks, a
netbook computer for content and
for use as a writing tool in lieu of
traditional laptop computers. The
experiment was quite successful, expanding beyond the classroom with
members of the Northeld Board
of Education using ChromeBooks
for their voluminous monthly board
meeting materials, in an effort to reduce their environmental footprint.
The school has become fully
Wi-Fi accessible, the rst elementary school in Atlantic County to do
so. Students are bringing their own
electronic devices to school and using them as classroom tools to help
them do research and solve problems.
The school is home to the Thunderbirds sports teams and enjoys a
reputation for strong cross country,
track, eld hockey, boys soccer and
volleyball teams. The teams are supported by a network of parents and
friends through the Sports Boosters,
which organizes the annual Northeld Invitational Tournament at the
end of the basketball season.
NCS enjoys success with its
sports programs, but also maintains
programs to honor academic success with the Tri-M Music Honors
and a Junior National Honors Society. The Northeld Education Association helps to fund the popular
Drama Club.
The Northeld Education Foundation sponsors several after-school
clubs such as the Future Engineers
Club, the Chess Club and the Media
and Newspaper Club, which produces the school newspaper, the T-Bird
Times. The school also has band,
chorus and an active environmental
club. The Future Engineers are frequent winners in a statewide future
cities competition.
Every year the school renews
its connection with local veterans
though programs that allow for students to research and learn about
the men and women in their communities who have served their nation.
The end result is shared throughout

the community with posters and projects that honor local military heroes.
NCS has been named an ofcial
New Jersey Veterans Day site.
The school districts motto is
Children First, and the Board of
Education follows policy that keeps
the school motto as a cornerstone.
Learning beyond the school day is
accomplished through the SACC
after-school child care program and
adult evening classes, and for the
last eight years the Masons have
funded a program for children with

dyslexia. The district also offers fullday kindergarten.
Northeld Community School
offers a summer camp program for
students in grades one through eight
and offers science, drama, sports
and other activities at the close of the
school year through mid-August. For
the third summer the district will have
a week-long invention camp.

at 609-407-4000 or see northeld.

The Somers Point Foundation for Education supports the district. Founded in 1995,

Linwood schools reaching for excellence,

in the classroom and life
Linwood is home to three public schools.
Seaview Elementary School houses about 450
students in prekindergarten through fourth grade.
Belhaven Middle School has about 470 students
attending grades ve through eight, and Mainland
Regional High School has an enrollment of about
1,380 students from Linwood, Somers Point and
Northeld.
Robert Previti serves as the interim superintendent of the Mainland Regional School District.
MaryAnn Gaffney is the superintendent of the Linwood School District.
Seaview Elementary School
Just off the bike path at 2015 Wabash Ave.,
Seaview School is nestled among woods, a playground and elds. The school has earned distinction as a No Child Left Behind Blue Ribbon School.
Seaview School has found success with its ASPIRE program. Standing for Students Progressing Individually Toward Reading Excellence, the
school-wide initiative strives to educate students
at their level and help them move forward at their
pace. The long-standing success of the reading
program was a factor in the Blue Ribbon designation.
The school uses weekly assemblies to foster
student condence and support its ongoing anti-bullying program. There are school-sponsored
clubs for the students. The Seaview School mascot is the dolphin.
The principal is Susan Speirs.
For information call 609-926-6726 or see linwoodschools.org.
Belhaven Middle School
On the bike path about a half-mile north of
Seaview is the Belhaven Middle School, home of
the Falcons. The school at 51 Belhaven Ave. offers
plenty of opportunity for students to excel in the
classroom, after school, and on the eld.
There is boys and girls soccer, girls eld hockey, boys and girls track, volleyball, boys and girls
basketball, golf and cross country and Belhaven
teamed up with the Jordan Road School in Somers
Point to form a junior wrestling team that is proving
to be a great feeder program for Mainland.
For those looking for something other than athletics, Belhaven offers Think Team, drama, chorus,
art, RTV (Renaissance Television), Renaissance
Street Team, Renaissance Student Council and
an award-winning band and jazz band.
Belhaven was the rst school in Atlantic County to participate in the Renaissance leadership
recognition and reward program, which begins in
fth grade and celebrates students making good
choices, being involved with their school and their
community.
In 2011 and again in 2014 Belhaven was chosen
as a New Jersey and a national School to Watch
by U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan.

Belhavens principal is Frank Rudnesky.
For information call 609-926-6700 or see linwoodschools.org.
Mainland Regional High School
Mainland Regional High School at 1301 Oak
Ave. is the home of the Mustangs. The motto of
the school is One Family-One School-One Community.
Mainland earned a Blue Ribbon for excellence
award in 2004, and historically ranks among the
top high schools in the nation due in part to the
wide selection of advanced placement courses it
offers and the number of students who take advantage of them.
The school, which has its own school district
and is run by a separate regional board of education, houses grades nine-12 and educates students from Linwood, Northeld and Somers Point.
The school was recently ranked in the top 50 high
schools in New Jersey.
The goal of the school is to educate the whole
student; to meet that challenge students can take
part in a variety of programs including clubs, sports,
performing arts, student government, mock trial,
band and the academic team. Students who need
extra help can mentor with students in the National

Honor Society. Mainland annually has Bloustein
Scholars and National Merit Scholars among its
ranks.
The Mustang sports teams historically do well
in Cape Atlantic League play. But there are many
popular activities outside of sports. This past winter Mainland students took rst place for the fourth
year in a row in the New Jersey Drama and Forensic League Championships and took top honors in
mock trial as well.
Opened in 1961, Mainland has seen several
large renovations through the years. Most recently,
solar panels were installed on the roof. With a new
entrance to the athletic complex, new class space,
a reconguration of the administrative wing and
front ofce, new HVAC and lighting along with new
lockers, the school has a brand new look.
Mainland is a New Jersey Choice School and
has 42 out-of-district students attending classes.
Those choice spots are coveted and selected by
lottery as there are many more applicants than
spaces available.
The MRHS principal is Mark Marrone.
For information call 609-927-4151 or see mainlandregional.net.

Linwood schools began in a Friends Meeting House

Linwood
schools
stretch back more
than a century, starting
around 1800 in the old
Friends Meeting House,
which is now part of the
property of the Linwood
Country Club.
The former Cedar
Grove
Schoolhouse
was on the corner of
Shore Road and Gareld Avenue, where
there is now a residence. It served families in the southern
half of what was then
Leedsville.
The core of the present-day Belhaven Middle School had its start
Near VanSant and as the Belhaven Avenue High School, built in 1908.
Maple avenues, a
school called the Leeds Ville Academy was holding class in 1843 through 1873, when the former
Crestlea School, now the Linwood Library, opened for students living between Belhaven and Central
avenues.
Those on the other side of town, from Belhaven to Ocean Heights avenues, attended school in a
home on Ocean Heights Avenue called the Sea View School.
The core of the present-day Belhaven Middle School had its start as the Belhaven Avenue High
School, built in 1908. That portion of the school is still in operation and houses the fth-grade wing.
There have been additions and renovations over the years, the most recent in 1997 adding an auditorium, distance learning center and media center.

Kiwanians are the busy people we turn to when a job just has to be done,
said Brian Campbell, president of the Northeld-Linwood Kiwanis Club.
You may see Kiwanians hand out peanuts to parade watchers or performing their periodic adopt-a-road cleanup of Shore Road in Linwood and Zion
Road in Northeld.
Often, Kiwanians work behind the scenes. Northeld-Linwood Kiwanis provides stuffed animals and craft supplies to children in the pediatric and emergency areas at Shore Medical Center.
They have partnered with the County Shelter of Hope (formerly JINS) to
provide clients with recreation opportunities, and a home-cooked Thanksgiving dinner. They have supplied supermarket gift cards to the Womens Center to assist families who are in need. They fund the annual Boy Scout mall
show. Northeld-Linwood Kiwanis also supports the Community FoodBank of
New Jersey, Jean Websters Kitchen and the Atlantic City Rescue Mission and
awards more than over $2,000 per year in scholarships to graduating students.
Kiwanis helps students become responsible community members. The
Northeld-Linwood Kiwanis Club is the sponsoring organization for the Key
Club at Mainland Regional High School and the Builders Clubs at Northeld
Community School and at Belhaven School in Linwood. Key Clubs and Builders clubs are Kiwanis community service organizations for students.
They also co-sponsor the Aktion Club, a service organization for developmentally disabled adults. And they co-sponsor the Stockton University Circle
K club.
The Northeld-Linwood Kiwanis Club meets weekly at 12:15 p.m. for lunch
at Atlantic City Country Club. Prospective member guests are always welcome.
John Davis, a founding member of the club and currently its secretary, advises that through Kiwanis membership communities are improved, friendships are built, and leadership skills are developed. More important, the lives
of children here and around the world are improved.
