He also included the language to solicit feedback from residents to allow the BOT time to address any concerns. He again asks that this feedback be sent to the BOT via email at bot @lvwa.net or regular mail to the Association office. There was no new business. Audience Comments S. Zitelli asked who is monitoring the parking spaces at the Club Encore Overflow Parking Lot and how it was determined who pays a parking fee. P. Brown submitted a petition with 150 LVW resident signatures asking the Board of Trustees to re-visit the Vinyl Fence Replacement project. M. L Ruggerio submitted a petition with additional resident signatures asking the Board of Trustees to re-visit the Vinyl Fence Replacement project. G. Jenik explained the proposed changes for the Dance Club Bylaws. He asked why it was tabled at the last Board meeting since everything was handled properly within the Club. The Board moved to approve the Bylaws for the Dance Club. A.Pedowitz stated that the Vinyl Fence project was approved by several committees before the Board approved the project. He believes the Board should pass a policy in regards to where solicitation can take place for those seeking signatures for a petition. L. Riley stated she is in support with moving forward with the new vinyl fences based on the financial aspect. R. Jenik stated the Dance Club fees will remain the same until the new bylaws take effect on November 1. S. Baillie submitted another petition asking the Board to re-visit the Vinyl Fence project. She believes that this is an optional item and that residents were not notified in a timely manner. She stated that it should be posted in the monthly magazine with an explanation. She asked when there is a new board if they can form a committee that will take into account the opinions of residents for projects. M. Lamberti made a recommendation that one of the Dance Club members audit its own books. L. Nellegar feels she is a member of the silent majority and is for the Vinyl fence replacement. She urges everyone who is in favor to notify the Board via email or mail. W. Dylewski spoke about the cost of replacement for the wood trim and mentioned there are no reserves to fund this project. He suggested that the deferred maintenance be used to jump start this project. M. L Doner stated the Finance Division studied the vinyl fence and wood trim replacement projects and felt they were both long term projects over a ten year period so this would not deplete the deferred property maintenance account all at once. The vinyl fence project was moved up due to the negotiations with the fencing contract. They also feel the vinyl fence project will save the village considerable amount of funds and free up employees. M. Clark stated she is in support of the Board re-visiting the replacement of fences in the Greenery section at one time. She believes the current money that has been dispensed for the Vinyl fences are to be put in an escrow account. She also believes a section of the Greenery should be done with basket weave similar to the design and quality that were installed by the developer. K. Maiocco disagrees but understands concerns from residents regarding the vinyl fence replacement project. She believes there was ample time for residents to address or give their opinions regarding this fencing project and that everyone did there due diligence. She also addressed a previous comment made by a resident. M. Lamberti asked why the Vinyl Fence project was brought down to a one year project and if it was Page 6 Leisure Village West News Board Meeting Minutes of Sept 7, 2016 Continued from page 4 re-visited by two committees. She also asked where the funds were for this project. E. Baumeister asked that the Board give some consideration to the replacement of fences one more time and at least have a discussion regarding the petitions. C. Lupo asked M. Lampard how much the Association collects each month in maintenance fees. F. Weinstein feels the Board was being disrespectful when a resident was speaking. She does not believe that it is just a small group of residents that are being vocally opposed to the Vinyl fence replacement due to the amount of signatures on the petitions that were turned in. She is opposed to the look and the financial part of the replacement for the fences. M. Lamberti stated members were laughing while she was asking a question and thanks a resident for responding the way that she did. S. Benigno stated he receives phone calls daily from people soliciting installing solar panels on his roof. He feels it would be beneficial to residents to have a field of solar panels to provide electricity for the Village. K. Maiocco spoke in defense of a comment made in reference to a Trustee. K. Hooyer feels the Board could have tried harder to work with both sides of residents views for the Vinyl fence replacement project. She provided a picture that shows the look of the white fences on a brown house. V. Williams asked when the policy changed to allow placards on benches. C. Kelly asked if the property manager was allowed to refuse to acknowledge him as an owner. No further discussion, this meeting ended at approximately 2:45 p.m. October, 2016 Emergency Notification Committee (ENC) By Anne Niebergall Changing of the Guard On September 23 the Emergency Notification Committee held their third annual General Meeting. Chairperson, Elaine Baumeister, opened the meeting by welcoming all Reveres, along with our 20 new members.

October, 2016 Leisure Village West News Page 7 LVW Residents Share Their Memorable Moments Going into her first state level Special Olympics, Erica Dillon, granddaughter of Phyllis and Dave Dillon, had two goals in mind; have fun and try to be competitive. Between the opening ceremonies, athlete parade, sponsored parties and athlete workshops, the fun part was easy. As for being competitive, she could not have been better! By the end of the weekend-long event held at Towson University in June, Dillon, a competitor in Bocce Ball, had gone undefeated and came away with two gold medals after wins in both singles and doubles competition. Dillon, a 2012 graduate of Severna Park High School, competed in bocce and bowling on the school’s Allied Sports team and was on hand to help her team win County honors in bocce in 2011 and a State Championship in 2012.

October, 2016 Leisure Village West News Manager’s Corner Page 9 by Joe Schultz U.S. Security to host “Shredding Party” October 7 U.S. Security will be hosting a “Shredding Party” on October 7 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. in the Encore parking lot. All residents are urged to come by, meet their gate attendants and destroy unneeded sensitive documents in a safe and secure manner. A mobile shredding unit will be provided for community use. Millions of people are affected by identity theft each year. It might start with a mysterious credit card charge, a bill you don’t recognize, or a letter from the IRS that says you already got your refund even though you didn’t. No matter what your specific identity theft situation is, IdentityTheft.gov can help. The website has information and recovery plans for more than 30 types of identity theft, including child identity theft and tax-related identity theft. Some examples of documents you might no longer need are old bank statements, medical forms, investment statements, credit card statements, old tax returns, junk mail, pay stubs, and ATM receipts. (Make sure to check with your financial adviser, banking institution, or Credit Card Company to explain the retention periods of these documents.) Staples, paperclips, binders and hardcover books are able to be shredded with this equipment. Cardboard, plastic bags, x-rays, metal, liquids and computer disks are not permitted. You will be able to pull up in your vehicle and someone will be available to take the documents out of your car and put them in the shredder. Enjoy refreshments and mingle with the management team of U.S. Security while they provide information on how to deter, detect and defend against identity theft. Big Changes to the Telephone Directory About this time every year, I ask for you to update your listing in our annual telephone directory. This year, we’re introducing an online version of the book to be posted on our lvwcreeper.com allowing for faster updates, quick searches and more. We realize that this might not be for everyone, so we want to give you ample opportunity to opt-out. Just as you can opt-out of being in our printed version, you will now have another choice to appear in the printed version with an option to be published online as well. This will be posted on our private website www.lvwcreeper.com, however as most web savvy residents know, we cannot absolutely ensure your information won’t be available to the public at large. Taking this into consideration, one should know this data is easily obtainable from other online sources. Nevertheless, we want to be clear about it. In any event, we still need you to update our database if you wish to appear correctly, if it’s not already, or you’ve changed your number or such. Don’t forget you can add another number for another occupant or you wish to list a cell number too. Is That Your Dog Barking? Barking dogs are sometime a good thing if there’s a suspicious person around, but frequent barking can be a nuisance for your neighbors. Please be aware that your dog may be causing your roof-mates and others undue stress, especially if they can’t get a good night’s sleep, watch TV or are in pain from an illness. Do you know that your dog may be barking when you leave for the day? Many times this is the case, so please be aware that this condition does happen and can occur without your knowledge and you should take steps to alleviate it from happening. Keeping windows closed and the shades drawn when going out may help as I’ve read online, but you should consult with the veterinarian for more help with this issue.

That is the theme of the October 18 Caritas Guild meeting. Dave Willis of the Asbury Park Press will be speaking on various scams that we should all be made aware of.

Featured at this meeting will be the Birthright Baby Shower. Members are asked to donate diapers, toiletries, blankets, etc., which will be distributed to area mothers-to-be in need. Caritas members are always so generous and shopping for baby items is so much fun. So you can plan ahead, we will be collecting winter clothing for Kevin’s Kids at the November 15 meeting.

October, 2016 Leisure Village West News How to Submit Club News Page 13 Following is a ‘Style Sheet’ and tips on how to submit an article for your club or organization for publication in the Leisure Village West News. This is an updated guide for all publicity chairpersons who submit their club news to our publication. Please keep this for your reference. Printed copies can be found in the News office and online for download. Submission Guidelines 1. Submit by the deadline date, which is BY or BEFORE the FIRST of each month for the following month’s publication. (ex. June publication deadline is May 1st) 2. Submit your item by email to [email protected]. Articles and photos can be emailed and if you currently type your article, I ask that you email it. E-mailed articles should be in WORD format (.doc, .docx, .txt, .rtf) and photos attached in JPEG format. Important Email Note: Please put the name of your club and month for publication in your subject line of the email and note if there are photos and an article or exactly what is attached. Filenames of your articles should include the club name and month for submission! 3. Do not submit handwritten articles. There is no one on staff to type them for the publisher. Articles must be typed and emailed to us. 4. DO NOT TYPE ANY PART OF YOUR ARTICLE IN ALL CAPS. This includes the title, byline and article. We will NOT print it if you submit it this way. Also, please do not underline. We will bold your upcoming event dates. All articles submitted must be typed in upper and lower case. Please indent paragraphs. 5. Keep your article short, except for special events/occasions. Club articles should be approx. 350 words or fewer. 6. Photographs: You can submit up to 4 photos via email in JPEG format. DO NOT SUBMIT COLLAGES! We will print as many as space allows. There is no guarantee they will all be printed. Photos should be CLEAR. Generally, close-ups of groups of people are better than distant shots. Please DO NOT submit blurry photos. They will not be printed. Label them properly so we know what club they are for and be sure to include captions. Digital photos are ideal. Do not submit photos printed from the computer on paper. Please email them. 7. Upcoming events: List the day, date, time and location. For past events, just the date should be used. Example: On April 15, the board finalized nominations. In setting dates, leave out the year except in December for January. (It is assumed you are speaking about the current year.) For upcoming events, avoid using will be held on, will be held at. Instead, just state it simply. For example: Our next meeting will be April 17. Please join us on May 5 for our general meeting. 8. Include a Byline! Articles must have the name of the writer below title so we know who submitted it! By Author’s Name. 9. Please check spellings of all names carefully in your articles and photo captions! We may not always be familiar with the person you are mentioning and we’d really hate to spell their name wrong! Thank you! Formatting & Editing Guidelines: Club News: Start with the Name of your Club. Then add a “headline” that calls attention to something the club is doing, did, or is planning. (Study local newspapers to see how clever some reporters are – you too can be catchy!) a. As far as zeroes and times go, use $5 instead of $5.00, and use 10 p.m. (or a.m.) rather than 10:00 PM (or A.M.) b. When posting information about a club, please remember, dates are never “5th, 1st, 2nd, or 3rd.” ExampleCorrect: the meeting July 2, or November 3. Incorrect: the meeting of July 2nd or November 3rd. c. For consistency, please indicate telephone numbers as follows. Example: Call Jane at 732-123-4567. (No parentheses around area codes or phone numbers please!) d.One exclamation point ! or question mark ? will do – don’t use three or four. Page 14 Leisure Village West News October, 2016 e. Avoid apostrophes that are not possessive. Example--Incorrect: The 50’s. Correct: The 50s. Apostrophes are for the possessives in life – George’s dog; Anne’s dessert. Exception: “Its” which is always possessive-Correct: “The dog ate its dinner.” f. “It’s” means it is – Example – It’s time to leave for work. g. Do not use “etc.” If there is something more to the list, please finish the sentence. h. Avoid abbreviations: “Pres.” looks like you didn’t have the time to spell it out. It won’t take up that much space. The same goes for Mon., Feb. 2—spell it out: Monday, February 2. i. When using the name of one of the 50 United States: Eight state names are never abbreviated in text: Alaska, Hawaii, Idaho, Iowa, Maine, Ohio, Texas and Utah. State abbreviations may be used for the remaining 42 states. Spell out the name of a state when it stands alone—Example: We went to Delaware on vacation. When in doubt, spell it out! j. Please note: U.S. has periods; USA does not; Washington, D.C. has periods. You may not need to use a state reference – we all know where Brooklyn, Toms River, Freehold and Chicago are. k. When listing a dinner/lunch event to come, you may wish to list the main menu items, but if the event has passed, suffice to say, “We enjoyed a hot buffet.” (Chicken Murphy, potatoes, rice, carrots, green beans, rolls, coffee, tea, soda, and dessert – is not necessary, especially when speaking of an event held two months ago!) l. To sharpen your message and give it ‘punch,’ leave out ‘that’ as often as possible and cut loose each and every “the” in your article. Try it with and without – see which version reads best. “Very” is very overused! Example – Everyone was very pleased with the very entertaining performance. Incorrect: We had a very, very, very good time and a very good meal. Correct: We had a great time and a delicious meal. m. Type commas and periods before closed quotes. Example: in a list of titles, it is: “Lorna Doone,” “Tom Sawyer,” and “The Avengers.” Note: titles must be italicized. Magazine names, reference books, dictionaries and newspaper names are typed in italics only: Leisure West News. Book titles, movies, plays, songs, television programs and works of art are typed in “quotes and italics” – “The Star Spangled Banner,” “Gone with the Wind,” “The Mary Tyler Moore Show.” n. Spell out Leisure Village West News (in italics) – it is not LWN or LW News. o. LVW has no periods (Please spell out Leisure Village West). Capitalize the first letter in ‘Bulletin,’ ‘Creeper,’ and ‘Village.’ The names of the clubhouses are always either Willow Hall or Club Encore. p. Tell it like it is! Be positive, not redundant! For example-- Incorrect: Go up to the computer terminal before you and make sure you turn the On button on. Correct: Face the computer screen and push the on button. q. When listing people or items: Commas generally between each one except for before the last listed. Correct Example: Joe, Mary and Chris went to the show. NOT: Joe, Mary, and Chris went to the show. Try not to overuse commas. r.Use the grammar feature on your toolbar on the computer. It will tell you if what you just wrote needs a quick rewrite. s. Please write your articles from the standpoint of the month in which the newspaper is issued (rather than the date you are actually writing the article.) For example, you may be writing in May about an event that took place in April and will appear in the June magazine. When announcing upcoming events, take notice that they are still “upcoming” when the next Leisure Village West News comes out. (We often have to change wording from, ‘We look forward to our May 28 luncheon’ to ‘We enjoyed the May 28 luncheon.’) If you have any question, please feel free to email me at [email protected] and I will return your email as quickly as possible. You can also call the Leisure Village West News office at 732-657-0181 and leave a message. A member of our staff will return your call as soon as possible. (Our office is staffed part time so please be patient). Please note that all submissions are subject to review and editing by the editor and volunteer staff. We reserve the right to edit or refuse publication based on the criteria listed within this guideline. We will not accept items that promote negativity, politically charged items, etc. Not everything submitted is guaranteed publication. We make every effort to include all club news we receive and give the Village readers a great publication! Thank you for your anticipated cooperation!

Volunteers Make A Difference The deadline for the Leisure Village West News is BY or BEFORE the FIRST of EACH MONTH for the following month’s publication “You, who are on the road, must have a code that you can live by.” (“Teach Your Children,” music and lyrics by Graham Nash.) When yoga practitioners are looking for a set of guidelines for living, they turn to Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras. There are five Yamas, which are expressed in the negative, as things to refrain from doing. They are: • Ahimsa: non-violence • Satya: non-falsehood, truthfulness. • Asteya: non-stealing. • Brahmacārya: non-promiscuousness, sexual restraint, marital fidelity, chastity. • Aparigraha: non-greediness, non-possessiveness. The other side of the coin are the five Niyamas, things to do. They are: • Śauca: be pure and clear of mind, speech and body. • Santoṣa: be content, accept others and your own circumstances, be hopeful for yourself. • Tapas: be self-disciplined, persist in meditation, and persevere. • Svādhyāya: reflect carefully on your thoughts, speech and actions. • Īśvarapraṇidhāna: contemplate God/Supreme Being, Brahman, True Self, Unchanging Reality. By way of comparison, briefly, the Ten Commandments have these prohibitions: • Don’t worship false gods; make graven images; or take God’s name in vain • Don’t kill; commit adultery, steal; lie; or covet And these prescriptions: • Keep God’s day holy • Honor your father and mother There are some interesting comparisons to be made here, which I leave to you. Beginners are more than welcome at our yoga classes. You will need comfortable, unrestricting clothing and a yoga mat; some also bring water bottles. If you’ve ever wondered if yoga is for you, why not give it a try? We’d be happy to have you join us. Our free volunteer-led yoga classes are at Leisure Fair on Wednesdays from 10 to 11 a.m. and Saturdays from 11:15 a.m. to 12:15 p.m. See the Creeper for paid classes.

If you take the time to look, you’ll find some interesting shots in your own neighborhood. Things to look for are leading lines, repeating patterns, reflections, and colorful subjects. Walkways and flower beds make great leading lines. Stairs and fences are samples of repeating patterns. Flowers and street art are often colorful, and bodies of water are good for reflections. That’s it for this month. You can email me with any questions at [email protected]. If you’d like to see more of my images you can visit my site at www.KirmsPhotography.com. Remember to keep shooting and trying to improve your images, but most importantly, have fun with your camera.

Two tables plus of ‘newcomers’ was just the beginning of the night. We danced, laughed and really enjoyed the music. People shared their snacks, sampled drinks from their buddies and took lots of pictures that were quickly posted on ‘the Unofficial LVW Face Book Page’ for everyone to enjoy. Many thanks to Lois Marino and Chrissy Giglio for getting such great shots. Our leaders, Rose and George Jenik had not just one, but two surprises for our group. First came Dave Sneddon who, without the white jeweled jumpsuit, channeled his inner Elvis and treated us to some of Elvis’s favorite songs. The next surprise was “Redbird.” Danielle and John Rozinski are new to the Village and the singing duo brought the house down with their rendition of “Bobby McGee.” Danielle and John perform at Albert Hall in Waretown and hopefully we will hear them at some of the clubs here in LVW. Thank you Rose and George for continuing to make the Boomers the super group it has become. Our 5th Annual Masquerade is on Saturday, October 29 in Willow Hall. You must wear a mask to get in, but don’t stop there, costumes are the way to go! There will be prizes for the most original, funny, and sexy outfits!

Many of your indoor potted plants found themselves enjoying the outdoors and the plants you had delivered to the greenhouse in the fall were ready to go home. Most of these plants are tropical and they can tolerate up to 45° F and a light frost. The cooler temperature, lower light levels and shorter days trigger the plant into a rest period or dormant phase. Now it is time to prepare to bring these plants back to the refuge of the greenhouse or into your home. There are three kinds of storage spots for plants. Bulbs and tubers like cannas, elephant ears and dahlias need a cool and consistently dark area such as a shed or garage. Citrus, figs, orchids and most succulents can be kept in a cool bright area like an enclosed porch and houseplants need a bright, warm spot. Here are some tips to prepare for this move: Clean up the pots by scrubbing off mold and dirt; remove all the dead leaves and spray the plants with a steady stream of water to knock off pests; finish off the process by spraying the plants with insecticidal soap. After a light frost, bring your tropical plants in to the garage to acclimate them to even lower light, check them again for pests. You may want to put the houseplants that go back in your sunroom or windowsill inside the garage or laundry area for a few days and recheck for pests before bringing them into the house itself. Think Halloween for our October 25 meeting at 1:30 p.m. in Willow Hall. We will distribute flyers announcing the program and please check the creeper. “You’ll want to go to the dentist…..Not have to go” WASHINGTON STREET FAMILY DENTISTRY DR.

The September 14 meeting, billed as fun and games, saw the members competing in teams of four in various challenges. It wasn’t exactly the Olympic Games, but we had a great time. Pizza and ice cream were the treats and the winners received gift certificates. The Club Picnic was a huge success. The putting, chipping and closest-to-the-pin contests were challenging and the food and company were the best.

Come on down on the second Thursday from April through November. We’d love to meet you! By Jim Larsen I hate to break the myth but there are times when I don’t always write the articles. Bill Delahoyde thought it might be a good idea to let you know about the little devil that might end up on your hook this season. The original article was written by Dan Radel for the Asbury Park Press. This season smooth puffer fish are being caught in New Jersey bays and rivers. The best advice as to what to do with it after you catch it is throw it back. Experts from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration who have seen photos of the fish believe it to be the Lagocephalus laevigatus. The fish has a fairly significant range in the western Atlantic Ocean from New England and Bermuda to Argentina, though it’s more common in southern waters. It inhabits inshore and near-shore areas, over sand or mud bottoms. The Food and Drug Administration warns that this fish may contain the potent and deadly toxins tetrodotoxin and/or saxitoxin, which can cause severe illness and death. These are central nervous system toxins and are more deadly than cyanide. Symptoms, such as tingling, weakness, loss of balance, vomiting, diarrhea and paralysis can start within 20 minutes to 2 hours after eating the toxic fish. In severe intoxication, death can result from respiratory paralysis. I guess that means that if you are out on a fishing trip and you get severely intoxicated don’t eat this fish. On a different note, I’m sure most of you know by now that I will be stepping down as president. I wish to thank all of you for making this an interesting and enjoyable 3 years. In particular I would like to thank Vice President Russ Murray, Secretary Linda Labita and last but not least Treasurer Joanne Laudicino for all the work they did to ensure that each and every one of you could enjoy our meetings and social events. Both Linda and Joanne plan to stay on with the new president so I hope you will continue to help them in the future.

Exciting competition and camaraderie was enjoyed by all involved. After five weeks of play, one team emerged victorious in each of the four divisions. The four first place teams met on August 16 in a round robin match. The Tuesday evening team comprised of Captain Paul Nickerson, Rose Foglea, Jan Rafferty, Joseph Tumbarella and Eleanor Berardis emerged the first place winners. The Tuesday morning first place team of Captain Gene Cecora, Ciro Maresca, Gladys Monarque, Margaret DeLucia and Charlie Blund captured second place. The Thursday morning team Captain Janette Mohr, Dennis Carbley, John Svenningsen, Grace Asaro, Bill Bouford and Fred Woods ended in third place. Rounding out the quadrilateral was the Thursday evening team of Captain Carol Jones, Jan Stubbs, Phyllis Brown, Louis Maiocco, Tom Gnizdowski and Paul Mazza. A special thanks to Bill Bouford for chairing the entire summer season and the four individual Harry Nagel coordinators for all their time and effort. Bill Bouford, Gene Cecora, AI Carnegie, Andy Moran and Karen McGinley created a wonderful summer bocce season. On August 8, the Bocce Club held the Dime on the Polina event. Many members participated. The evening was coordinated by Gene Cecora. Beverly Amazing bocce singers in action. Bouford and Dee Staugaitis emerged as the victorious winners. Landing in second place were Anita Marchetti and Rico Guerriero. Everyone had a great time. Ladies Night took place on August 23. This event was coordinated by Nettie Martino. Ellen Daubner was crowned Queen of the Bocce League, finishing in first place. Sis Peluso was a close second. All the women who participated had a very enjoyable evening. Once again, Phil Cenicole provided wonderful entertainment at the August general meeting. He interacted and had fun with the audience. Phil selected several volunteers as background singers to harmonize during his performance. The songs covered the music of the Duprees as well as many other rock and roll groups. The audience spent the entire musical hour singing along, a few dancing in the aisles, while others just enjoyed listening to the music. The fall Bocce season is underway with the Men’s League on Monday morning, the Ladies League on Friday morning and the Twilight League on Wednesday evening. Please remember that the Bocce Holiday Party and Installation Dinner Dance will be held Monday, December 5 from 6 to 10 p.m. at the Clarion Hotel in Toms River. Entertainment will be provided by the D-CEES. The cost is $28 per person. Tickets will be sold at the general meeting. Have a wonderful fall season. Our talented back up bocce singers. Page 66 Leisure Village West News October, 2016 The Yiddish Club By Seymour Brotman An evening of good humor, wonderful musical and comedy memories of the 1950s took the stage on August 25 to the great applause and delight of a very large and happy audience. The evening began with the pledge to the flag and singing of our national anthem by Murray Peters followed by well received jokes by the President Ruth Benenson. Program Chairman Judy Leibowitz announced that the Anniversary Gala would take place on October 27, featuring songstress Naomi Miller. She then welcomed back for the second time this year the cast of LT Productions, produced and directed by Linda Turash. Wonderful memories of the music, TV shows, characters and comedy of the Fabulous ‘50s had a spirited cast alternating their presentations with different costumes and themes. This creative and delightful evening concluded with the calling of raffle ticket winners and an ice cream reception.

I know lots of people like the summer but the changing of the leaves and the crisp breeze is a nice change. If you missed our August and September meetings you missed a lot! In August we had the pleasure of hosting Arthur Weiner from the Computer Club. It was very interesting and sometimes got heated but all in all a very informative meeting. We thank him from the bottom of our hearts for taking the time and trouble to keep us informed on technology at LVW. September’s meeting was just as interesting with Al Della Fave. More on that in next month’s article. Remember to join us for breakfast on October 25 when we will be entertained by Ron Hyland. Dues are only $5. Selling or buying a home, work with a winner!

"This federal grant will help improve fire protection in Manchester Township for many years,” said Smith, a long-time member of the Congressional Fire Services Caucus, who wrote to FEMA to support the grant. “Ridgeway members have been getting by on a three-decade old truck, which they bought used and have certainly gotten a lot of use from. Unfortunately, it costs thousands of dollars to maintain every year. A new pumper will serve the residents of Manchester for years to come. Ridgeway is an-all volunteer firehouse on a limited budget and purchasing a major apparatus is difficult if not impossible without some federal assistance.” In 2014, Ridgeway, with Smith’s support, was awarded a $210,455 grant to replace low-pressure SCBA gear with new face pieces and high-pressure bottles. The new equipment replaced older sets that were out of compliance and unreliable. The turn-out gear, comprised of the fire suits, boots and helmets, was over 20 years old when it was replaced. “I was pleased to work with Chief Trimarchi and reach out to FEMA to support both grant applications and help bring updated equipment to Ridgeway volunteer firefighters,” Smith said. The award comes through the U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s Assistance to Firefighters Grants Operations and Safety Grant Program. It is administered by FEMA in cooperation with the U.S. Fire Administration. The purpose of AFG is to award grants directly to fire departments and non-affiliated Emergency Medical Services organizations (EMS) to protect both the health and safety of the public, and first-responder personnel as well. A competitive process overseen by fire service subject matter experts awards grants to applicants whose requests are aligned with the priorities of the AFG Program. For more about the FY 2015 AFG Program visit http://www. fema.gov/assistance-firefighters-grant. The new pumper will be similar to the pumper shown and will be purchased from the Ohio-based company Sutphen. According to Chief Michael Trimarchi, the company’s existing 1987 pumper costs as much as $20,000 to maintain every year. October, 2016 Leisure Village West News Page 69 Manchester Accepts Donation of Senior Motion Wellness System Manchester Township was pleased to accept the generous donation of a Senior Motion Wellness System from Pfizer and the Wakefern Food Corporation that will serve as a fitness and meeting space for seniors at Harry Wright Lake. The Township Council accepted the donation through a resolution passed at their July 25 meeting. Representatives said that the equipment ties into an initiative to encourage seniors to eat well, socialize, and challenge their minds. “It’s going to be a great benefit to the town,” said Director of Public Works Al Yodakis, who worked with representatives from Pfizer and Wakefern to select a location for the equipment at Harry Wright Lake beyond the band shell and adjacent to the outdoor fitness center and walking trail. The entire process of manufacturing to installation is expected to take approximately six weeks. Because of our sizeable senior citizen population, Manchester Township is the first site selected by Pfizer and Wakefern to receive a donation of this wellness system. The equipment will serve as a neighborhood destination where senior residents can meet, exercise, and connect with one another. In addition to the exercise center, benches are planned at the site. “On behalf of the Council, I’d like to thank Pfizer and Wakefern for their generous contribution to Manchester Township,” said Council President James A. Vaccaro. Mayor Kenneth Palmer also offered his appreciation to the companies for their donation. The Township Council is committed to keeping costs down and creating opportunities for our senior population with no impact to the taxpayers, and is thankful for the assistance of our neighboring businesses in a “spirit of mutual cooperation.” Please email submissions to [email protected] Page 70 Leisure Village West News October, 2016 Early Deer Sighting in the Village Both male and female deer have made an early season appearance in our village this year.
