Vineland Rotary Charters Ellison Interact Club
Twenty-seven students from The Ellison School made history as they became
members of the area's very first Interact Club to form at the elementary school
level. Standing for International Action, Interact is a youth-sized version of Rotary
International formed to get kids involved in helping others in need from an early
age. “Up until now, Interact has focused on kids ages 14-18,” says Melanie Druziako,
District 7640 Interact Director and member of the Vineland Rotary Club. “Recently,
the age was lowered, bringing service learning to even younger students.”
Since March (when the club was first organized at Ellison), members have
elected officers, appointed a Board of Directors, conducted a trash pickup at a
local park, visited with the residents of Maurice House, raised $210 toward the
purchase of new plastic and glass recycling bins, collected and prepared bicy-
cles for shipping to Albania where they will be used for transportation to and
from work and school.
"As we enroll a younger, very eager audience of middle school students into
Interact we are reminded of our responsibility to provide role models for their
progression through our world," says Joel Kopke, Director New Generations D-
7640. "High School Interactors, Rotaractors and Rotarians need to work togeth-
er providing support and inspiration for each other and our youngest members
of Rotary. Our job of improving the world can only get better through this effort."

Pictured below are the charter members of the Ellison Interact Club. They include:
(bottom row, l. to r.) Kevin Kinkade, Anuj Patel, Gianni Finizio, Spencer Infranco,
Jake Aulffo, Michael Mauger; (middle row, l. to r.) Gianna Capriotti, Abigail Rosenberg,
Sarah Consalo, Jessica Rudolph, Madison Rudolph, Alexandra Durham, Della Anconetani;
(back row, l. to r.) Julia Albertson, Robert LaPorta, Helen Chung, Luca Basolis,
Dhruv Patel, Neil Menghani, Niko Basolis, Daniel Farrell, Gregory Wallace, Max Matusow,
Jonah Hammerstedt, Wyatt Chapman, Korri Harmon, Jake Walters.

Eighth Grader Organizes


Book Drive
Neeraja Thakur, an eighth grade stu-
dent at Saint Mary Magdalen Regional
School conducted a Book Drive at her
school for the Vineland Public Library.
When Thakur heard about cuts in funding
for the libraries in New jersey, she was
saddened and wanted to help the local
library. She read a flyer in the library ask-
ing people to donate their gently used
books, and she decided to run a drive in
her school. She was able to collect more
than 200 books for all age groups.
Thakur has donated her birthday
money to the Vineland library since she
was 10 years old, and is a teen club
member there as well. She also volun-
teers for various community projects.

I News in Brief
New Four-Way Stops at Two
Area Intersections
Electronic message boards are in place
at an intersection in Bridgeton, and anoth-
er in Roadstown, alerting drivers of an
important new safety measure about to go
into effect.
Beginning on Tuesday, June 14, the
intersection of Fayette (County Road 650)
and Vine streets (CR 697) in Bridgeton
and the intersection of Roadstown (CR
626) and Shiloh/Roadstown-Greenwich
roads (CR 620) in Roadstown will become
multi-way (four-way) stops.
These safety measures are the result of
ordinances passed last month by The
Cumberland County Board of Chosen
Freeholders.
“These have been two challenging
intersections for drivers,” said Freeholder
Sam Fiocchi, chairman of the Department
of Public Works. “We believe converting
them into multi-way stops will make them
safer and give drivers a greater level of
confidence when approaching them.”

Lead-safe Certification
Classes at County College
New federal EPA/HUD rules require
that all contractors, multiple dwelling own-
ers, and maintenance workers performing
renovation, repair and painting projects
that may disturb lead-based paint in pre-
1978 homes, child care facilities and
schools, be certified and follow specific
work practices to prevent lead contamina-
tion.
Failure to get training and certification,
and failure to comply with lead-related
state and federal regulations, could result
in fines, legal liabilities and loss of work.
The NJ Community College
Consortium, in partnership with NJBIA
and the state Department of Community
Affairs, has organized a series of classes to
give New Jersey contractors, multiple
dwelling owners, and maintenance workers
the training and certifications they need to
follow lead-safe practices and comply with

Habitat Honors
Volunteers
At a recent Volunteer of
the Year Appreciation
Dinner and 22nd
Anniversary Celebration,
Cumberland County Habitat
for Humanity (CCHFH)
named three Volunteers of
the Year and one Corporate
Volunteer of the Year for
2011. Ogren Construction of
Vineland was named CCHFH’s 2011 Corporate Volunteer of the Year. Joan Newkirk
of Stow Creek, Dr. Marvin Goldsmith of Vineland, and Anthony Santini of Vineland
were all named CCHFH’s 2011 Volunteers of the Year.
Arthur J. Ogren, Inc., over the last several CCHFH build projects has donated
the equiptment as well as skill and time of their project manager and master
builders to help families in need build safe, quality homes.
Newkirk is an Intake Supervisor with DYFS and has dedicated the last 14 years
to helping others in her capacity there. Further, she has committed many
Saturdays and evenings to working on the habitat jobsite on Plum Street.
Dr. Goldsmith has been a professor of physics for over 28 years. He served as
the U.S. Council General in Hong Kong and Istanbul, and is currently a nuclear
consultant for the State Department. He, too, spends a large part of his free
Saturdays and evenings working on Habitat homes. “Doc,” as he is affectionately
known, comes not only with plenty of elbow grease, but a vast collection of tools.
Anthony Santini, a fourth grader at John C. Milanesi Elementry School in
Buena, may be small, but the good will in his heart and level of carpentry skill in
his pint-size hands are far beyond his tender years. At age 10, he often begs his
father to go to the work site and keeps everyone laughing on site.

From left: Volunteers of the Year: Arthur Ogren and Rich Smith (co-owners of Ogren
Construction); Volunteers of the Year: Anthony Santini, Joan Newkirk, and Krystle
Zambrana (future habitat homeowner, accepting on behalf of Dr. Marvin Goldsmith).

Marandino made note of the timely fact


that we are at this time in the middle of
Cape May’s Restaurant Week, running
from June 5 through 12.
Like similar promotions, this provides
diners an opportunity to sample cuisine at
various eateries from remarkably inexpen-
sive, prix-fixe menus.
Among the items being offered this
week at The Inn are appetizers Peeky Toe
crab risotto with tarragon pesto and
grilled flatbreads with Merguez sausage,
arugula and Spanish Manchego cheese.
Entrees include a braised short rib with
pine nuts and currant soffrito, an organic
roast chicken breast with chimichurri and
roasted vegetable salsa or bucatini pasta
with shrimp, garlic and lobster stock.
The big news in Marandino’s personal
