Petrat had a passionfor baseball since he

was little. He and his father

loved watching The Metsplay on television. Coinci-dentally, Nate started play-ing on a Little League teamcalled The Mets. Because Nate has cere-

bral palsy, putting a baseballglove on and keeping it onwas a challenge. “His fingers spring

back,” said his older brother,Ian, who is 13. “He wasfrustrated. At the beginningof the season his coach sug-gested everyone should havea glove. He was sitting in thefield without a glove. I saidto myself, ‘This is ridicu-lous.’ He’s a very goodthrower with his left arm.His right arm is the issue.He’d make a great player.” Inspired by his little

brother’s lack of ability touse a baseball glove prop-erly, Ian came up with theidea of having a specialglove for disabled kids. Hediscovered his school’s engi-neering team, RandolphMiddle School EngineeringTeam, and proposed hisidea.

“And we’ve been work-ing on gloves ever since,” hesaid. “We have a few ideasof how it’s going to work so

the glove can close when theball hits. The glove will bespecially formatted to fit inhis hand.” The team is calling the

invention “Gloves forLove.” Team leader Nick

Agostin, 13, started TheChallenger League last au-

tumn. Nick’s original projectwas building a go-cart fromrecyclables. Ian joined theteam around that time andpresented his idea to thegroup. Nick said, “The gloves

are specific to the person’sneeds. At the moment we’retrying to make one for Ian’sbrother, using specific meas-urements.” In order to raise money

for the cause, the teamstarted a booster. Accordingto Gili Krasner-Cohen, 13,who is the team’s assistantbusiness leader, they raised$1,700 through donationsand purchases of t-shirts forthe cause. “We sold aboutfifty shirts,” he said. “Andthe rest [of the money] has

come in through donations.”Gili aspires to have thegloves done by the middle of2017. Maanav Choudhary, 12,

is the designer/engineer, andplans on making more glovedesigns over the summer. Hesaid the gloves are mainlyfor young boys, and theymight move on to girls. Randolph Middle School

the project have great aspira-tions for their future. Giliwants to be a biomedical en-

in college, began the col-lection when he was inhigh school. “My parents asked him

to think of a way he couldhelp others,” states Loweryon the Baseball Donationswebsite. “It started as justa resume builder,” Loweryexplains, “then he realized

Local Teen Collects Sports Equipment For Underprivileged Children what an impact it had.”The volunteer work started as some-

thing centered around the Lowerybrother’s passion: baseball. But soon itbecame something more; an entirely newpassion, that of helping others in need.Since Lowery has taken over his

brother’s collection over the past two

years, the donations remain to be that ofbaseball and softball equipment. Dona-tions can be anything ranging from cleatsto bats and balls.All donations are taken by Lowery and

the donations range in ages therefore adultequipment as well as t-ball and otheryouth equipment is also distributed. Lowery was just in the Dominican Re-

public bringing donations this past Janu-ary and another visit is being planned forthis August. To promote the drive, Lowery enlists

the help of other teams in the area andalso by reaching out to tournament direc-tors throughout his summer travel season.Lowery recently completed his base-

ball season at Randolph HS and his seasonwith the Locked in Expos travel team isgearing up. Throughout the summer season Low-

ery will reach out to teams and baseballtournament hosts to promote and coordi-nate collecting items with the other teams. Diamond Nation, a baseball tourna-

ment and training complex in Flemingtonhas a collection bin available for dona-tions at any time. Every one to two weeks Lowery will

then pick up the donations from the bin tostore at his house until it is time to makeanother shipment overseas. Lowery part-nered with Pitch In For Baseball to coor-dinate the distribution of the equipment inthe Dominican Republic. Pitch in For Baseball is a 501(c)(3) or-

ganization whose mission is to help sup-ply boys and girls in the United States andaround the world with baseball and soft-ball equipment. Through this organiza-tion Lowery has been able to donate theequipment. According to the website, over the past

year 500 pieces of equipment has beencollected by Lowery in addition to thethousands that has been collected sincethe donation was started by his brother. “It makes you realize how blessed you

are,” Lowery explains of his visit to theDominican Republic where he witnessedchildren sharing mitts and teams evenpassing one bat around between them. Lowery is quick to explain, “When you

see how grateful these kids are and the im-pact you make on another life, it’s an awe-some experience.” It’s easy to pitch in for a good cause;

contact Lowery [email protected] or visit thecollection website at www.baseballdona-tions.com to see how to make a monetarydonation or send equipment. Helping outin any way possible is sure to be a homerun for the Baseball Donations team andall the children in need!

By Jane PrimeranoScott Malagold thought he wanted toteach college. Then, he thought hemight want to be a lawyer.

But, he enjoyed a temporary job teach-ing at a public high school in The Bronxand by his second year of law school knewthe law wasn’t for him.So, by a somewhat circuitous route,

Malagold is this year’s Morris CountyTeacher of the Year.A teacher of social studies and law and

public safety at the school, Malagold firsttaught at Morris County School of Technol-ogy as a maternity leave replacement. Hethen did a maternity leave replacement atMillburn Middle School before getting afull time position at Randolph High School,teaching history and civil law. “When I got an offer to return to MCST,

it was a very difficult decision as I felt likeI was thriving at Randolph and didn’t wantto keep moving around. However, I knewfirsthand how great a school MCST is anddecided to take the offer,” Malagold said in

an email. He has been there for three years.This year Malagold assisted with the

transition of the Academy for Law and Pub-lic Safety from Butler High School back tothe main Denville campus. He teaches afreshman course strictly for students in thatacademy as well as a civil and criminal lawcourse that is an elective as is his contem-porary issues in sociology course. In addi-tion, Malagold got a grant from InnovateNJto develop a course in critical thinkingskills. Called philosophy and logic, it willpremier next year. Malagold is one of five teachers from

MCST who works as an NJ AchievementCoach. They train other teachers in theirown and other schools and also developcontent for the training. A graduate of George Washington Uni-

versity in Washington, DC, Malagold ma-jored in religion and minored inanthropology. He considered going to grad-uate school, but decided on law school andwent to New York University. He was ad-mitted to the New Jersey Bar, but never

practiced. He had obtained a certificate ofeligibility for teaching, but couldn’t get ajob with just those credentials so he workedas a legal researcher. When he lost that job,he received a grant from New Jersey unem-ployment to go to William Paterson Univer-sity for 30 credits of graduate work leadingto a certificate of eligibility with advancedstanding. Malagold hasn’t stopped learning. He re-

ceived grants from the Gilder Lehrman In-stitute of American History and attendedseminars at Stanford University during thesummers of 2013 and 2015. He also at-tended seminars in London and New Yorkduring the summers of 2012 and 2015 inLondon and New York. He also tested anew curriculum called “Rock Your World”during the 2013 and 2014 school year. He worked with the NJ Education Con-

sortium in Newark in 2009 as communityoutreach coordinator. In that capacity, hecollaborated with Rutgers University stu-dents to canvass local businesses and coor-dinated the Charter School Athletic

League’s Spring 2009 soccer season. An-other outreach was with the Merck SummerInstitute for Bioethics as mock trial coordi-nator in July 2009 and July 2010.A Randolph native, Malagold now lives

in Hopatcong.

by Ashley BouwenseCenter Grove Elementary School’s second gradersspread kindness to the Randolph community ontheir Kindness Tour Fri., April 29.

The 70 students made five stops on their tour around thetown. First, the students traveled to the Sunrise Senior Liv-ing Center, where they sang patriotic songs to the residents.They also gave out tissue paper flowers that they had cre-ated days before the tour. Next, they visited Eleventh Hour Rescue. Parent volun-

teers drove donations to Eleventh Hour, and the secondgraders unloaded the donations from the vehicles. Otherstudents from Center Grove donated to the Eleventh Hourcollection. The Post Office was next on the tour, where they mailed

letters they had written to soldiers. In a previous lesson,the students used their skills from their letter-writing unitto write the letters. The group stopped at Freedom Park next to have lunch.

This gave the students the opportunity to talk to each otherabout their experiences and provide them with down timeafter their hard work. Last stop, Center Grove! When the students arrived back

at the school, a yoga instructor guided them through a yogasession to teach students how to be kind to themselves. Second grade teacher at Center Grove, Brittany Dungan,

shared the idea for the kindness tour with her colleagues.“The Kindness Tour was something that my previous

school district did,” she explained. “[My coworkers]thought it would be a great opportunity to teach the studentshow to give back to the community.”The second grade social studies curriculum revolves

around community: what it is, its purpose and its history.The Kindness Tour ties into the curriculum, as it teachesstudents that a community gives back to its people. Dungan, along with fellow second grade teachers—

Kristen Miller; Wanda Turner; and Lori Nields—all partic-ipated in the event. Parents contributed to the initiative, too.

We Wish You A Safe & Happy Fourth of July

Men have an identity issue. Hollywood often de-picts men as self-centered couch potatoes whoare always looking to party, act like adolescents

and play video games, while shirking all of men’s respon-sibilities along the way. One example of this lack of respect for fatherhood may

be best illustrated by a recent survey of holiday church at-tendance. At the bottom of the list with Independence Daywas Father’s Day. As a matter of fact, most people nolonger can even say when Father’s Day is! Why has this once welcomed day to honor fathers be-

come little more than a footnote to church attendance orthe evening news? Despite the fact many have fallen forthat misrepresentation, there are many good men who aregreat dads. They have embraced the God-given role of fa-therhood and are impacting their children by helping themto build and live successful lives. Conversely, the one com-mon denominator of many of society’s ills—pornography,human trafficking, abortion, rape, murder, alcoholism, teensuicide, and incarceration—can be traced to absentee fa-thers. According to statistics, 63 percent of youth suicides are

from fatherless homes (US Dept. Of Health/Census) –fivetimes the average. 90 percent of all homeless and runaway children are

from fatherless homes – 32 times the average. 85 percent of all children who show behavior disorders

come from fatherless homes – 20 times the average. (Cen-ter for Disease Control). 80 percent of rapists with anger problems come from fa-

therless homes –14 times the average. (Justice & Behavior,Vol 14, p. 403-26). 71 percent of all high school dropouts come from fa-

therless homes – nine times the average. (National Princi-pals Association Report). From these statistics, it is easy to see that men who have

abdicated their roles as fathers is the single greatest prob-lem in society today. Dads need to step up to assume theirrightful roles as leaders of the family. Kids are looking atthem, and studying them, to see if they are really going toprotect them, lead them and love them. It is time to onceagain make it cool to honor those men who have stood upto be great dads, grand-dads or mentors. Enter the That’s My Dad Movement. This movement is

designed to honor the man, not necessarily one’s dad, whomost impacted one’s life. The movement, inspired by thenew book “That’s My Dad!” just released by BroadstreetPublishing, asks people young and old to visitwww.ThatsMyDadMovement.com and follow four simpleinstructions to honor that man and to encourage others to

Looking For A Few Good Men

follow suit. It’s time to breathe new life into a once proud holiday

and take part. The truth everyone wants to, or at least yearnto, stand up and shout, “That’s my dad!”

In Kindness Night, students and parents hadthe opportunity to create posters and ban-ners for the tour. Dungan and Miller teach social studies

for the entire grade-level. In preparation forthe tour, the two started in the beginning ofthe year by discussing the importance of thecommunity and how people function to-gether as one. Later, all four second gradeteachers began to focus on the kindness as-pect of the tour.“We continuously talked about the im-

portance of kindness and how we can giveback,” Duncan explained.Dungan expressed the importance of the

Kindness Tour.“It teaches kids to be selfless. It also

teaches them to give back to their commu-nity and how they can make a difference atsuch a young age.”There was a particular moment at the

senior center that stood out to Dungan. Asthe children sang, she scanned the roomfilled with residents and parents of the stu-

dents. “I remember, at one point, an older gen-

tleman was waiving his hand in the air andsinging along with the students. I [also] re-member looking around the room and real-ized that almost all of the parent volunteershad tears in their eyes. I was just an amaz-ing sight to see.”Dungan and the rest of the second grade

team plan to hold the tour again next year.They have already begun to discuss howthey can change and expand the initiative. “We would also like to extend our appre-

ciation to Mr. Rodas for continuously beingsupportive throughout the planning processand implementation process of this newventure,” Dungan said. “Mr. Rodas’s ex-citement towards this Kindness Tour trulyhelped inspire us and our students. In addi-tion, we would like to thank the students,staff and parents from Center Grove fortheir support and donations. We look for-ward to what the upcoming years willbring.”

New Jersey Blood Services, a divi-sion of New York Blood Center,which supplies blood products and

services to 60 hospitals throughout thestate, is in need of volunteers at blooddrives. The blood service volunteer is an in-tegral member of the collection team whosetask it is assist donors with registration, es-

corting and canteen duties, and to watch forpost donation reactions. Volunteers shouldhave the ability to relate to the public, beable to perform different jobs as needed andhave the willingness to follow the rules.

By Maryanne Christiano-MistrettaThousands of people fled towards the gates of TurtleBack Zoo, West Orange, on Sat., June 4, for the 14thAnnual Essex County Open House.

There was live music, clowns, carnival games, treasurechests, giveaways, prize wheels and trivia tests, providing ex-citing entertainment for children as their parents gatheredaround more than 10 information tables that provided infor-mation about public awareness programs and services pro-vided by Essex County. Directors and employees were onhand to answer questions. It was a great way for EssexCounty residents to meet the people who work for theircounty. The Open House included free admission to the zoo,

which features: a mini-golf safari miniature golf course, sealions, sting rays and sharks in a touch tank, a state-of-the-artreptile and education building, jaguars, snow leopards, Gib-bon apes, wolves, otters, alligators, reptiles, and bears. Thereis also a beautiful gift shop. Essex County Executive Joseph DiVincenzo, Jr., said,

“We’ve done this for fourteen years. We’re here to socializeand network for Essex County. And it’s an opportunity to seethe zoo for free.” According to DiVincenzo, last year therewere 16,000 people in attendance. He said, “We’re hoping tohit 20,000 today.” This event was formerly held at a small setting in the Hall

of Records, according to Anthony Puglisi, Public Informationdirector. But the zoo can accommodate a lot more people. Puglisi said, “Not many people know about what the

county government does and how it affects their life. It’s in-formational and we try to make it fun.” Claudette Hampton, case manager and nurse at Essex

County Special Child Health Services said, “We’re here toeducate the public about community health and special childservices. And [for the public to] know about various resourcesin Essex County.” Other Essex County tables exhibits included: Paper Mill

Playhouse, Family Wrap, New Jersey’s Early InterventionSystem, Essex County Juvenile Detention Center, New JerseyMental Health Cares, OACANP (The Oranges ACA Naviga-tor Project), and Essex County Vocational Technical Schools.Attendees were able to enjoy the new giraffe exhibit which

just opened up, as well as the recently opened bison exhibitwith a new viewing area to get up close and look into. Puglisisaid, “Before there was a split rail fence. You couldn’t getclose to the animals.” The prairie dog exhibit will also be upgraded. Puglisi said,

“We’re changing the way the public views so you get moreof a clear picture; before it was a high glass wall.” A lion ex-hibit is also in the works.In addition to the new animal exhibits and developments,

the café expanded to two stories, which triples the capacity

People Flock To Turtle Back Zoo For Open House

of what it was before. “It will help with crowds,” said Puglisi.“Improvements enhance the area for the public.” According to DiVincenzo, “NJ Monthly” magazine

named Turtle Back Zoo the best zoo in New Jersey the lastfour years. And the zoo has always been awarded with a Cer-tificate of Excellence in the last three years. For more information on Essex County, visit www.essex-

by Michele Guttenberger On Saturday June 4 the West Orange National His-torical Park Site of Thomas Alva Edison celebratedEdison Day. It was a day of free admission and

special programs for every age. The park had collaboratedwith West Orange partners to connect community places ofcontinued discovery and learning under their big outdoortent. There were learning exhibits from the AmericanChemistry Society (ACS) http://www.njacs.org/, HackN-CraftNJ Makerspace http://www.hackncraftnj.org/, aroundthe world club radio chats from the Tri-County Radio As-sociation www.tcara.org, Black Maria cinematic arts demo– (Nonprofit) Mono No Aware http://mononoawarefilm.com, and a courtyard electric car display from – NewJersey Electric Automobile Association https://njeaa.org/ A special recognition was given to the Junior Ranger

program table. On August 25, 2016 the National ParkService is turning 100 years old. In 1916 when most of usAmericans still traveled by horse and buggy, we found pop-ular support to rally for the initiatives Republican PresidentTheodore Roosevelt had started in preserving America’samazing natural wonders and historic places. In 1916 therewere 35 national parks and monuments. Today there areover 400 National Park sites all over the country, in places

you might never expect like - the genuine factory lab build-ings Thomas Edison used to conduct his innovative engi-neering and technology for new modern homes andbusinesses of the late 19th Century and beyond. Edison Day was an opportunity for kids to become a

Centennial Junior Ranger with a commemorative 100thAnniversary Badge fittingly made from etched wood. NewJersey has 12 National Park sites. And many folks havestarted an American summer tradition to visit these NPSplaces and collect different park Junior Ranger patch andbadges as family earned National souvenirs. You are nevertoo old to be a Junior Ranger. There are dedicated websitesfor each Park to view their programs. The West Orange siteis www.nps.gov/edis To obtain the Junior Ranger badge there is a set of Junior

Ranger workbook activities for children from ages 5 andup to complete. After they successfully complete their listof activities they must take an oath that they promise toshare their knowledge with others and enjoy and protect allNational Parks. This recognition certificate is signed by aPark Ranger and presented to them along with their badge. Here is the link to download the Centennial Junior

Summer is pool season. Come spring,homeowners prepare their backyardpools for several months of leisurely

floating or engaging games of aquatic vol-leyball. This preparation includes uncover-ing the pool and rebalancing the pool’schemical levels.Pool preparation and maintenance also

includes installing a working filter. Whilethere are many different types of pool filtersand filter mediums, in recent years, saltwa-ter filter systems have been growing in pop-ularity. Consumers who want to upgrade toa saltwater system may be interested inlearning a bit more about how such systemswork.Saltwater systems are those in which

chlorine is generated by the system itself.These systems do not usually require the ad-dition of a powdered or liquid form of chlo-rine. Electrolysis occurs thanks to achemical process that involves pool waterpassing through a salt cell and being ex-posed to a low-voltage current. This essen-tially breaks up the sodium chloridemolecules (salt) into hypochlorous acid andsodium hypochlorite, which are sanitizing

agents. Therefore, saltwater systems are notchlorine-free. They just produce chlorinefrom a less caustic material.One of the main advantages to a saltwa-

ter system is the constant generation of freechlorine. Pool water chemistry is often bro-ken down into FC (free chlorine) and CC(combined available chlorine). FC is yet un-touched chlorine that can do its sanitizingjob. CC contains chlorine and chloramines,which are produced when the chlorinecomes in contact with urine, sweat and othercontaminants present in the pool. CC iswhat contributes to the “chlorine smell” ofthe water. When there isn’t enough FC andthere’s too much CC, pool water levels needto be returned to optimal conditions, usuallythrough a shocking process. However, withsaltwater systems, there’s always an abun-dance of FC being delivered into the water,making levels superchlorinated, and thesesystems eliminate the formation of CC. Saltwater chlorine generators require

few, if any, additional chemicals, as theyproduce nearly neutral pH levels. This isn’talways the case with other chlorine sources,which can raise or lower pH or add to the

Understand The Mechanics Behind A Saltwater Filter

presence of other substances, such as cal-cium, in the water with calcium hypochlo-rite sanitizers.Because these saltwater filtration and

chlorine-generating systems are relativelyautomatic, they also can mean less mainte-nance. This is handy for homeowners whogo on vacation or do not want to be hassledby the daily care other systems may require.One of the disadvantages to saltwater

systems is the cost, which can be prohibitiveto some people. According to Thursday PoolManufacturing, installing the average sys-tem costs anywhere from $800 to $2,000.But some feel that cost is offset by themoney saved on pool chemicals over thecourse of a season.Switching to a chlorine-generating salt-

water filtration system can be a worthwhileinvestment for many pool owners.

By Jane PrimeranoFor one day every year, Chatham Bor-ough turns from an upscale, sophisti-cated bastion of Morris County wealth

into the epitome of small-town America. The Fishawack Festival was held Sat.,

June 11, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., featuringvendors, not-for-profit groups, children run-ning around in gaudy face paint, folks walk-ing their dogs, everything that makes a tightcommunity. This year, Fishawack coincides with

opening day of the Farmers’ Market. Themarket, starting its 10th season at the railroadstation parking lot is run by a volunteer com-mittee and, for the past seven years, a YouthVolunteer League. According to the borough website, in

2014, volunteers worked more than 2,000hours keeping the market going. VolunteerJohn Ball is known for being on site by 5:30a.m. each Saturday during the season to greetand assist the vendors, according to the web-site. Community volunteers, including teens,are on site for the duration of the market,which runs from 8 a.m. to 11 a.m. each week. Chatham’s is not the only super-organized

farmers market.The Chester Farmers Market, which will

run this year on Sundays from June 19 to Oct.2 is sponsored by the Chester Rotary Club.It is held on Perry Street in the heart of theborough shopping district.Long-time Rotary member Bill McGuire

is in charge. He said 13 of the 2015 vendorswill be back in 2016, with a total of 16 ven-dors.

Chester always features music. McGuiresaid Rotary was still working on confirmingthe acts. A Grateful Dead cover band oftenplays, but McGuire said they also look forother performers, “something quieter than arock band so vendors can communicate withtheir customers.” An a capella group fromWest Morris Mendham High School per-formed a few years ago, he said. The Hopatcong Farmers’ Market also

opened Sun., June 19, in the municipal build-ing parking lot. Hopatcong is noted forbrightly colored tote bags and t-shirts, musicover the municipal public address system anda nice, shady spot for visiting alpacas. Vari-ous alpaca farms rotate coming to the mar-ket.Councilwoman Marie Galate is in charge

and she and other elected officials are alwaysthere to help out. They are known for watch-ing customers’ dogs while they shop. The market runs through Oct. 9, from 9

a.m. to 2 p.m. Like many markets, Hopat-cong welcomes bakers, wood carvers andother local vendors along with farmers.Another Sunday market is in Morris-

town on Spring Street from 8:30 a.m. to 2p.m. All of this year’s vendors will be re-turning and the town is not accepting anynew vendors, according to a spokeswomanat Town Hall. A former mainstay, the Netcong Farmers’

Market will not be open this year. No one atthe borough hall could give an explanation.The market was at the railroad station parkinglot and often featured cat adoption days fromNetcong Trap, Neuter, Release.

This Fourth of July, take your back-yard barbecue staples from basic tobold with knock-out burgers, grilled

fruit “steaks” and festive red, white andblue-colored desserts. Opt for burgers with a brazen rub that

creates a caramelized outer layer. Make themeal an epic Fourth of July feast with a sideof grilled watermelon steaks, marinated inwhite balsamic vinegar, lemon juice androsemary, and topped with walnuts, lemonzest and fresh parsley.“Burgers are an Independence Day

mainstay, but that doesn’t mean they haveto be boring,” said McCormick ExecutiveChef Kevan Vetter. “Pick a flavor combothat packs a real punch for the rub, thenbuild out the burger with toppings andcondiments to match that taste. For exam-ple, use Smoky Montreal Steak Seasoning,

chili powder and brown sugar to make asweet and smoky rub, then top with a richBBQ mayonnaise, melty cheddar, grilledpickle slices and crispy onion straws.”For more tips and recipes for unforget-

table Fourth of July fare, check out Mc-Cormick.com and visit McCormick Spiceon Facebook and Pinterest.

Morris Park Commission HostsGarden Concert Series Grilling season has arrived, and am-

ateur grillmasters everywhere aregearing up for another summer of

backyard barbecues and family dinners out-side under the summer sun. But once youfire up that grill and cook your first hot dogof the season, your work is not quite done.Cleaning the grill after you have eatenmakes it easier to prolong the life of yourgrill and ensure the foods you eat are safeto consume.• Turn the grill off. Unless you own a

charcoal grill, chances are your grill hasdials that govern how hot the grill getswhen cooking. Make sure these dials areturned to the off position before you startcleaning. If your’s is a gas grill, disconnectthe gas while wearing gloves to reduce yourrisk of accident or injury.• Use the residual heat to make cleaning

easier. The sooner you start cleaning thegrill after you cook, the easier it might beto make the cooking surfaces sparkle.That’s because the residual heat can make

it easier to remove any leftover buildupfrom barbecue sauce or seasoning that stuckto the grill after you removed your food.• Use a wire brush to clean the cooking

grates. Wire brushes are ideal for cleaningcooking grates. Such brushes can quicklyremove grease and food particles, savinggrill owners the trouble of scrubbing awaywith traditional sponges. Once the wirebrush’s work is done, you can then clean thegrill with a soapy sponge.• Remove food that fell into the well.

Food inevitably falls into the well of a grillno matter how skilled a grillmaster mightbe. If left to fester in the well, such foodscan pose a safety risk and promote thegrowth of bacteria.• Clean the remaining areas of the grill.

Marinade, sauce or condiments may findtheir way onto areas of your grill, and if leftunattended, such substances can make agrill very dirty over time. Remove thesesubstances after each barbecue to keep yourgrill looking new through the summer.

Mall, Rockaway, 10 a.m. to 8 p.m.New Jersey Blood Services, a division of

New York Blood Center (NYBC) is askingfor help to maintain an adequate supply of allblood types, but especially O-negative – the“universal” blood which can be transfusedinto anyone in an emergency. In addition,hundreds of additional blood drives need tobe scheduled to meet projected hospital de-mand. Current inventory of several bloodtypes is running below the desired target

level.“It’s simple: hospital patient demand for

blood often outpaces our best efforts to re-cruit donors and schedule blood drives,” saidNYBC Executive Director of Donor Recruit-ment Andrea Cefarelli. “There are alwaysreasons but we have to overcome that for thesake of hospital patients who need us.”“This is one of the toughest times of the

year,” Cefarelli added. “We’re asking for ourdedicated supporters to roll up their sleevesto make sure we’re able to provide our hos-pital partners with whatever they need to takecare of their patients.” Blood products have a short shelf life –

from five to 42 days, so constant replenish-ment is necessary. Each and every day thereare patients who depend on the transfusion ofred blood cells, platelets and plasma to stayalive. But blood and blood products can’t bemanufactured. They can only come from vol-unteer blood donors who take an hour to at-tend a blood drive or visit a donor center.To donate blood or for information on

how to organize a blood drive call 1-800-933-2566; visit: www.nybloodcenter.org.
