By Katy Slininger POINT PLEASANT BEACH — Last Thursday, friends, relatives and the faculty and administration of the high school, here, gathered to bid a fond farewell to Point Pleasant Beach High School’s seniors in a bittersweet commencement ceremony. Despite a steady wind and dark clouds threatening rain, families and friends of the Point Pleasant Beach High School Class of 2010 sat outside on bleachers at the G. Harold Antrim Elementary School field, excitedly awaiting the beginning of the graduation ceremony. Many of the guests at the ceremony were more than happy to discuss and congratulate the graduating class as they kept an eye out for the opening processional to begin. Helen Marshall, grandmother of graduate Billy Linder, had a simple message for her grandson on gradua- tion day: “Good luck and I love you,” Ms. Marshall said before last Thursday’s ceremony began.

During last Tuesday’s meeting, the council unanimously agreed to move the trailers to a “more permanent location,” according to Councilwoman Kristine Tooker. The trailers are located near the Public Works Department on Cooks Road - right next to the railroad tracks, and will be moved across the street to an empty lot. Councilwoman Tooker explained that the trailers would be hooked up so running water could be provided. She said, in the past, water had to be brought in for the cats that were housed in the trailers. Councilwoman Tooker said all the expenses associated with the project would be covered by the Point Pleasant Beach Animal Welfare Committee, which has been helping fund the TNR Program through a series of fundraisers. On Wednesday, Councilwoman Tooker said the only structures on the lot currently are two abandoned pump houses. “The tentative plan is to demolish those buildings,” Councilwoman Tooker said. Councilwoman Tooker also said Borough Engineer Ray Savacool is still surveying the area to make sure it is the best place to put the trailers. Councilwoman Tooker said the area would be landscaped and have a minimal impact on residents. Last year, the borough created a chain of command where all the volunteers in the Trap, Neuter and Return program answer to Point Pleasant Beach Animal Control Officer Digging In IMAGINE NEVER HAVING TO SHAVE AGAIN!

Mr. Neary then reports all of his activities to Borough Administrator Christine Riehl, whose higher authority is the council and Mayor Vincent Barrella. Mr. Neary’s base of operations is comprised of three trailers. Cats taken from the 29 identified feral colonies in the borough will be brought to these trailers to be neutered or spayed, as well as vaccinated. The cats are held for a minimum of 60 days to ensure that they are healthy enough to either be returned to their colonies or put up for adoption. Cats that have bites or appear to be symptomatic for rabies will be taken to the Ocean County Health Department in Toms River to be observed for rabies. Mr. Neary said these cats could be held as long as 90 days, because that is the gestation period for rabies. Mr. Neary has a crew that consists of veterinarians and volunteers to help him vaccinate, feed and care for the cats. The council expanded its TNR program after three young children were attacked by feral cats over the course of one week last August. The attacks began when a 7year-old girl was scratched and bitten by a cat while walking to a friend’s house on Parkway. Mr. Neary was unable to locate the cat after searching for several hours. The following day, a 4-yearold boy was attacked by a feral cat on Arnold Avenue, and Mr. Neary again was unable to locate the animal. Mr. Neary said he did not know if the same cat was responsible for both attacks, but said it was a “good probability that it’s not the same cat.” Then, the next day, a teenage boy was attacked in a backyard on Central Avenue, but Mr. Neary was able to trap the animal. He sent it to the Ocean County Health Department in Toms River the following day and received word from the lab that the animal had tested positive for rabies. Since then there have not been any reported cases of feral cats attacking residents in the Point Beach, although there have been several raccoons which have been caught and tested for rabies. Last week, the The Ocean County Health Department [OCHD] sent out a warning to Ocean County residents against handling, feeding or providing assistance to stray animals. According to the OCHD, a resident from the Manchester area was recently bitten by one of two kittens she was caring for. Both kittens tested positive for rabies, and the resident is beginning rabies treatment, the OCHD reported. The OCHD has continued to warn residents to vaccinate their pets for rabies and not approach any suspicious-looking animals. Councilwoman Tooker said the committee said kittens are still available for adoption, and raffle tickets are still available for the super 50/50 which will be drawn in December at borough hall. Adoption Coordinator for Point Pleasant Beach Animal Welfare Committee Lisa Muller, said the committee is still looking for volunteers for the TNR Program and those interested in doing so can contact her at 732- Jimmy Mauro graduates Brookdale Point Pleasant Beach resident Jimmy Mauro recently graduated from Brookdale Community College, located in Lincroft.

Mrs. Piantadosi also offered her best wishes to the class of 2010. “Good luck to them all,” said John Palsi, from a beach chair he set up next to the chain link fence surrounding the field. Mr. Palsi is grandfather to brothers Mike and John Palsi, who both graduated last Thursday. The high school faculty and graduating class were lined up on the side of the elementary school building prior to the ceremony. Girls were robed in white and held red carnations, while their male classmates dressed in garnet robes. As they stood, jumped, and danced around in line, the seniors shouted out some excited words about their life at Point Pleasant Beach High School. “These were the best four years of my life,” declared Tim Bottrell, with a huge grin. “Class of oh-10 is the class of the century,” a few girls in line added, in unison.

Brian began by describing some memories shared by the graduates, from their freshman days to their final year at the high school. As the speech progressed, Brian introduced the idea that while graduation signified a sort of separation, the class of 2010 would remain together in spirit. This group, he said, would be influential in the world. “Many of us have aspirations that are not fettered by the chains of reason,” said Brian. Those seemingly unrealistic goals, he remarked, could be catalysts for change in the future. To support this idea, Brian cited a well-known quote from former President John F. Kennedy to encourage his friends and classmates. “The problems of the world cannot possibly be solved by skeptics or cynics whose hori- JOSEPH J.

The members of the class of 2010 will now move on to a new phase of their lives, but the valedictorian urged the students Thursday night to “cherish the relationships we have forged.” “This is not goodbye,” Brian said. “TOP DOCTORS of NEW YORK” for 11 YEARS 20+ Years of New York Experience Patricia C.

PAGE 7 THE OCEAN STAR, FRIDAY, JUNE 25, 2010 Point Pleasant Beach Beach residents discuss administrator salaries By forming a Green Team Advisory Committee, Point Pleasant Beach is one step closer to joining the 34 communities statewide that have obtained certification through the Sustainable New Jersey Program. The inaugural meeting of the Green Team Advisory Committee [GTAC] was held on last Wednesday, June 16, at the municipal building. The governing body of Point Pleasant Beach established the GTAC by unanimous resolution during its council meeting on Feb. 8, recognizing the numerous benefits that can be realized by implementing community actions such as recycling programs and promoting energy efficiency, as outlined in the Sustainable New Jersey Program. For more information about the Sustainable New Jersey Program, visit www.sustainablejersey.com. The GTAC is a cooperative effort involving representatives of the governing body and borough administration, the local health officer and public works department, the Environmental Commission, representatives from the public schools, and community volunteers representing local businesses and other community organizations. The GTAC will be the driving force in implementing any number of community actions as outlined by the Sustainable New Jersey Program. During the inaugural meeting, the GTAC wasted little time taking action. To start, the GTAC has decided it will undertake the following projects: • A review of the recently published Municipal Energy Audit, and assisting municipal officials in implementing energy-saving measures. • The establishment of a Green Business Recognition Program. This program encourages the active engagement of the private business sector. A Green Business Recognition Program offers marketing and promotional support, and potentially financial and regulatory incentives, to encourage local businesses to implement sustainable practices. • Design and construction of an educational demonstration rain garden and native plant demonstration garden. The Sustainable New Jersey Program provides the framework, tools, support and potential access to grant monies to help implement a wide variety of sustainable community practices. The GTAC meets on the third Wednesday of each month at the municipal building, at 7 p.m. Meetings are open to the public, and the GTAC welcomes any community-spirited people with a willingness to volunteer. Those interested in joining the GTAC, are asked to please contact Environmental Commission Chair Peter Ritchings, at 732-899-5024, or e-mail pritchings@emg-environmental.com.

M HO u Yo C U O N N D TR ER A C T SUEANNE GOSS, The Ocean Star based on the performance of Mr. Ravally. “None of us have an issue with his performance, it’s the economy, and we should not be doing a five-year contract in this economy,” Mrs. Donoghue said. Mrs. Donoghue asked the board why a three-year contract could not have been negotiated. Mrs. Laterza said a five-year contract would be more “conservative,” because she said the overall feeling of the board was that the economy would pick up in the next three years. Brad Tombs, of Jackson Street, said he also felt a shorter contract term would be more beneficial. “The burden on you is to be accountable to us,” Mr. Tombs said. “It’s safer, for the taxpayers, to negotiate a smaller contract,” Mr. Tombs added. Forman Avenue resident Joellen Arrabito said the hard times many residents now face “have to be taken into account” by the board when negotiating the contracts. “We’re not in a time where we can be generous with our tax dollars,” Ms. Arrabito said. New Jersey Avenue resident Anne Lightburn said she appreciated that the administrators took a zero-percent increase over the next two years. She said there still needs to be some protection from “runaway benefits.” Ms. Taylor explained that Mr. Savage and Mr. Ravally receive the same benefits as teachers in the district, because they are all under the state’s health benefits plan. “Whatever the teachers get, they get,” Ms. Taylor said. “You’re at the whim of what the state is able to negotiate.” Ms. Taylor said the teachers’ contract expires in 2012. Mrs. Lightburn also said district should also look into more shared services with Point Pleasant Borough. Mr. Savage told Mrs. Lightburn that the district is always looking into shared service opportunities and that it is “his job,” to find these opportunities. After the public discussion on the contracts, the board unanimously voted to approve them. C U O N N D TR ER A C T Girls’ Best Friend tors need to sacrifice. “We must put together a responsible contract, and we believe we did a great job.” Mr. Ireland said he felt the contracts negotiated were fair. “I’m not here to judge what a superintendent is worth, but we have to have one,” Mr. Ireland said. “We have a job to hire employees at a competitive rate.” “We have to attract and maintain quality people … what’s out there at lower prices, is not always good,” Mr. Ireland said. Mr. Ravally has a new fiveyear contract which will pay him a base salary of $175,616 in 2010-2011, a zero-percent increase in from his 2009-2010 salary. This total does not include benefits, but does include the $51,593 Bay Head School pays to Point Pleasant Beach for Mr. Ravally’s services as superintendent. Therefore, Mr. Ravally said, the cost of his salary to Point Pleasant Beach taxpayers is $124,073. Mr. Ravally’s base salary, for his combined work in Bay Head and Point Pleasant Beach, will be $177,166 in 2011-2012, $181,719 in 20122013, $186,333 in 2013-2014, and $191,009 in 2014-2015. While his Point Pleasant Beach salary will have a zeropercent increase in 2011-2012, the salary will increase by 2 percent over the following three years. Mr. Savage’s contract calls for a zero percent increase over last year, which will pay him $130,063 for the period beginning July 1, 2010 and ending June 30, 2011. This total includes a $5,000 longevity payment, which Mr. Savage also received last year. According to BOE Attorney Frank Campbell, Mr. Savage is a tenured employee so he always receives a one-year contract. New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie announced in May that teachers and administrators will have to give back 1.5 percent of their salary to offset their health insurance. This year, Mr. Ravally will have to give back $2,635 and Mr. Savage will owe $1,951. Baltimore Avenue resident Candace Donoghue said her criticism of the contracts is not C U O N N D TR ER A C T meeting. Board President Jim Ireland said copies of the contracts would be passed out after a public discussion is held, and then the BOE will vote. Board member Lisa Taylor said she felt the public would be “happy” with the contracts. “We spent a lot of time on them,” Ms. Taylor said. “I don’t think it’s the best idea for everybody in town to pick them apart,” Mr. Waldman said “the public pays for these contracts,” and said he just wanted to make sure everybody had a chance to see them. Board member Eileen Laterza said she understood that the public felt the contracts should not increase this year.

Mr. Savage and Mr. Ravally’s contracts were up for renewal this year and some members of the public in attendance said they were interested to see what the contracts would consist of -considering the downturn in the economy and the fact that the 2010-2011 school budget failed in April.

Thankfully, for some of the younger students, the Point Pleasant Beach Summer Park Recreation Program is starting up again. Registration for the 2010 Summer Park Recreation Program will be held tomorrow, Saturday, June 26, for children ages 5 and up, at Pleasure Park, on Forman Avenue in Point Pleasant Beach. Proof of residency [municipal tax bill or water bill] is required. The program runs for six weeks, Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to noon, beginning June 28 and ending Aug. 6 — with the exception of Monday, July 5, when the program will be closed in observance of Independence Day. The participation price per child is $150. Registration will also be held on Monday, June 28, from 9 a.m. ages 3 to 4. However, in order for that program to run, there need to be more children signed up, according to Mr. Ammirata. He said the Tot Lot Program could be cut if registration numbers do not increase.

Varosi site plan approval for two new houses she is looking to build on Chicago Avenue. Mrs. Varosi is looking to demolish her single-family home on Chicago Avenue, divide the property into two lots, and build two new homes. Mrs. Varosi’s attorney, Steven A. Pardes, and her son, Albert Varosi, first appeared before the ZBA in January, and again in March and May, but no decision was made on the proposed subdi- TUESDAY NEW CLIENT SPECIAL Free Manicure with purchase of Basic Pedicure Tuesday & Wednesday 50% off facial w/ 1 hour massage WEDNESDAY NEW CLIENT SPECIAL $40.00 Mani/Pedi with Alexis only Exp. 7/1/10 Must Bring Ad in for Specials Ciao Bella Salon 516 Bay Avenue, Point Pleasant Beach, NJ 08742 732-892-5292 Coppola Keratin Straightening Treatment starting at $250 Includes 2nd appt. for shampoo & blowout vision and subsequent construction. The board has agreed that the subdivision of the lot is not a problem, because the resulting lots will both conform with the borough’s lot coverage ordinance. The question that was raised at the March meeting by board chairman Paul Struncius was what the the new homes would look like. Mr. Struncius was concerned that the two houses would be too big, so he asked Mr. Varosi to bring back an architectural rendering of the proposed homes. At the ZBA meeting in May, Mr. Varosi presented a drawing of the two homes, created by architect Brendan McHugh. However, the board felt the two proposed homes looked too similar in style. In fact, ZBA member Tom Spader described the homes as “twins.” Mr. Spader and other board members said they did not like the design of the proposed houses. Last Thursday, Mr. McHugh came back with a revised drawing, which made the houses look more distinct by changing the homes’ color schemes and adding more windows. At the last ZBA meeting where the Varosi homes were discussed, Mr. Struncius also said he felt the houses were too tall. Mr. Varosi said both houses were proposed at 32 feet wide and 34 feet tall. The maximum height allowed for a home in a single-family, residential zone is 35 feet. However, at the ZBA meeting in May, the board recommended to Mr. Varosi to not build the homes so close to the maximum allowable height, in order to match many of the other houses on Chicago Avenue. Last Thursday, Mr. McHugh said he was able to reduce the height of the proposed houses to 32 feet. Mr. Pardes explained that the designs presented to the board were simply part of the application process, and might not be exactly what is built on the property, especially if the owner were to sell the lots before building. “We don’t know if Mrs. Varosi is going to build these,” Mr. Pardes said. “If there is any variation, whoever is going to build them will have to come back before this board [for approval].” The board then weighed in with their thoughts on the proposed homes, and stated whether they found the changes to be acceptable. “The applicants have been here a number of times with this unique piece of property,” Mr. Spader said. “Essentially, everything we’ve asked of them, they’ve agreed to.” Board member Leroy Kelly said he did not feel the subdivision was a good idea. “The subdivision would create a situation I would not like to see,” Mr. Kelly said. Board member Bill Reilly had a different opinion. “I commend the architect for the work he’s done,” Mr. Reilly said. “[The applicant] has gone along with almost every proposal, and has gone about as far as they can go.” Board member Jay Reynolds said the size of the homes still “bothered” him, but said, “The positive criteria outweigh the negatives.” Board member Steve Ardito said he felt the applicants had “done their homework.” Mr. Ardito said he would approve the application as long as any deviation in the home design from the approved architect’s drawings would be borough before the ZBA for site plan approval. Mr. Spader then made a motion to approve to the application. Every board member with the exception of Mr. Kelly voted to approve the application for a final approval vote of 6-1. H.S.

Council members notified residents of the delay during a regular business meeting at borough hall on Monday night. Road construction will not begin until at least the end of the year, Councilwoman Elizabeth Nelson said. She said the Channel Lane and Bergen Avenue project will not begin for at least six months - as a result of an extension. Ms. Nelson, chairwoman of the public works committee, said board members anticipate no resistance to the six-month extension they filed with the New Jersey Department of Transportation (NJDOT). “The (NJDOT) has indicated they will act favorably on our request,” Ms. Nelson said. She said she and fellow members moved for the extension because they delay is in borough residents’ best interests. An existing ordinance imposes a moratorium on road work in the borough between July 4 and Labor Day of each year. Without the extension, construction could have begun shortly after Labor Day. The borough received $110,000 through the NJDOT Municipal Aid Program. The Channel Lane and Bergen Avenue project was contracted to begin on July 28. The project is intended to improve roadway conditions and to address flooding frequency. Ms. Nelson said flooding results from storm-sewer surcharge. The NJDOT funds will go to elevating roadways to improve poor road conditions that result from flooding. Ms. Nelson said the board is currently looking into less invasive measures. Borough residents have expressed concern that elevated roads would necessitate private improvements. Should streets be elevated, residents who live on those roadways would have to invest in new landscaping; fences; driveways; lighting; walkways and additional, otherwise-unneeded improvements. Ms. Nelson said the borough has identified a potential cause of some flooding. She said public works employees installed check valves as an initial flood control measure. Check valves are designed to facilitate stormwater to drain to downstream water from the street. Flooding is particularly a problem during high tides and intense wind. In addition, borough employees will inspect areas for possible situations where high levels of water might be able to bypass check valves. Employees will conduct a closed-circuit, video inspection to monitor check valves and to immediately address any observed issue. Ms. Nelson said she was notified of the existence of an abandoned storm sewer outfall. “It was an old pipe,” Ms. Nelson said. “It had not been capped.” She said, because the pipe was not capped, a significant amount of flooding occurred. Public works employees have been assigned to cap the pipe, she said. “We want to do the best job without impacting the community,” Ms. Nelson said. The six-month extension will give the borough council and public works employees time to address flooding, and to potentially the need for road construction to begin at the end of the year. In other news, Councilman Stanley Wikowski addressed the borough’s financial state. Particularly, Mr. Wikowski spoke to the agreement reached between council and a credit Showing Off The 1950 GMC SUEANNE GOSS, The Coast Star Mantoloking residents George and Ginger Downs showed off their 1950, GMC 150 pickup at a recent car show at Allaire Road Park, in Spring Lake Heights. card vendor. “This will not cost the borough anything,” Mr. Wikowski said. He said the borough received “four responsible responses” to a request for bids. Mr. Wikowski said the bids were necessary because TD Bank could no longer afford to provide no-charge, credit-card services to the borough. TD Bank had previously provided the free service for the finance office and the court. After reviewing the top four responses, Mr. Wikowski said TD Bank offered the best “overall package” and emerged as “the primary candidate.” Board members unanimously approved the TD Bank package. According to the agreement, a 3-percent fee will be applied to transactions that take place in the finance office. Specifically, the agreement states that the fee will apply to tax payments, beach badges, construction, and “any other transactions that may be credited to … the Borough of Mantoloking.” Residents will know the specific amount of the fee prior to the transaction. Any transaction will not be processed without the cardholder’s approval. “Paying 3-percent may be cheaper than late fees,” Mr. Wikowski said. He said many residents are not in town throughout the year, which often makes it difficult to pay taxes in a timely manner. Following Mr. Wikowski’s presentation, Mr. Strohm, chairman of the dune and beach renourishment committee, announced bulldozing is complete and the dunes are prepared for the summer. “There was enough sand left,” Mr. Strohm said of the project. “All the steps [leading over the dunes to the beach] can go back.” Various board members and residents who attended the meeting called this year’s bulldozer project a “success.” Some meeting attendees stated residents of neighboring towns have even commented on the project’s effectiveness.

Planning board members were expected to discuss the T-Mobile Northeast, LLC final site plan for the proposed cellular communications tower. The T-Mobile tower is proposed to be constructed at 2233 Bridge Avenue, on property owned by the borough next to borough hall. T-Mobile has sought borough and planning board approval for the application for years. The tower, if constructed, would be 120-feet high and would be erected right next to borough hall and the police department. Edgar Road residents, who live next to the proposed site, have voiced concerns during recent borough meetings about the issue. At the Point Pleasant Borough Council meeting last Tuesday night, Katherine Suskevich, of Edgar Road, spoke to board members about her concern with the proposal. Among her concerns, Ms. Suskevich cited depreciated home values. According to Ms. Suskevich, the construction of a cell tower in the proposed location would cause her home value, as well as the values of her neighbors’ homes, to decline in an already challenging and uncertain housing market. Ms. Suskevich said she is not pleased with board members for a land use amendment that passed last year. The amendment paved the way to permit telecommunication towers in areas where similar erections were previously banned. “To change a land use ordinance as council did, it is clear they were thinking only of the yearly revenue from the cell tower and rent of land, and not of the voters who elected them,” Ms. Suskevich wrote. Councilwoman Antoinette DePaola, who chairs the town’s zoning and code enforcement committee, said she and fellow council members are working to address resident concerns. “We’ve had some very productive dialogue,” she said. According to Mayor Martin Konkus, T-Mobile has identified an area in town where there is a lack of telecommunication coverage. Such areas, known as “dead zones” result in dropped calls and impact the effectiveness of the carrier company. According to T-Mobile representatives, the proposed location of the tower on Bridge Avenue would be ideal to resolve the issue. Some residents, including Ms. Suskevich, feel the issue is not about whether T-Mobile can supply adequate coverage to customers. Those residents are reluctant to believe the tower needs to be constructed. Ms. Suskevich stated, “The 'coverage gap' that Mayor Konkus refers to is fiction. “It is about the mayor and council putting many cell towers in residential neighborhoods for money.” Council President Susan Rogers said the borough anticipates revenue of approximately $35,000 per year for the T-Mobile antenna. In addition, the borough would likely receive revenue from up to three other carriers, if the additional space on the antennae is leased. Mayor Konkus said the borough could be legally bound to allow the company to construct the tower. Should council members deny T-Mobile approval, the company could file a lawsuit. Although it is true that the borough would benefit financially from a tower, Mayor Konkus said a tower in the borough is, most likely, an inevitability regardless of b o a r d approval. Cellular phone companies have sued municipalities throughout the country — most notably in California, w h e r e there is a particularly strong resistance to neighborhood towers. Concerning the Point Pleasant tower, the attorneys of Hiering, Dupignac, Stanzione, Dunn and Beck in Toms River represent TMobile. Unfortunately for antitower residents, courts have routinely ruled in favor of telecommunication companies. Attorneys representing telecommunications companies rely heavily on the Federal Communications Act of 1996. In short, a primary objective of the federal law is to eliminate telecommunication monopolies by promoting a competitive environment. TMobile representatives, having identified a “dead zone,” assert their company cannot fairly compete in the market unless the “dead zone” is corrected. T-Mobile has often taken measures to make towers more aesthetically pleasing. The company has camouflaged towers in order to pacify objecting residents. Some look like trees, while others look like windmills. “Unfortunately the law is against us,” Councilwoman DePaola has previously stated. Carl Feltz, vice chairman of the planning board, said he anticipates T-Mobile representatives will make the formal presentation to the board at the meeting in August. Peter J. Tardy, of French & Parrello Associates, in Wall Township, is the plan engineer. His plans call for a lotcoverage variance. He will request a 75 percent lot coverage, whereas 50 percent is the current maximum. “(Telecommunication companies) should improve the range of service,” Mr. Feltz said. He said if the signals carried for a “greater distance,” the need for addition- al towers would not exist as frequently. Mayor Konkus echoed similar feelings when he spoke about the tower. Although he said he recognizes T-Mobile’s situation, Mayor Konkus said companies should explore the ability to produce stronger signals. Board members had considered building the tower in a location other than at 2233 Bridge Ave. One such suggestion presented to board members was to construct the tower in Community Park. However, the borough received Green Acres funding for Community Park. Green Acres funding comes with use restrictions, and a cell tower is not among the allowed activities on Green Acres-funded property. Fellow Edgar Road resident, Irene Cachino, agreed with Ms. Suskevich in regard to the tower placement. Ms. Cachino said she does not want a cell tower in any residential area — especially not her own neighborhood. Councilwoman Susan Rogers said she is aware that courts have routinely sided with telecommunication companies. “[Council members] have been educated through our conversations with our attorney,” Councilwoman Rogers said. Councilwoman Rogers is also among the council members who recognize the financial benefit the tower is likely to generate for the borough. “The tower will generate a monthly revenue stream,” Councilwoman Rogers said. She said the tower will be capable of supporting four to five antennas, each of which can be financially profitable for the borough. Leading The Way SUEANNE GOSS, The Ocean Star Flutemaster Marjorie Koharski led an ensemble of young flutists last Saturday at Point Pleasant Borough Library. The group performed various melodies. Ms. Suskevich has also expressed health concerns. “I believe that there are no long term studies proving safety for residents living underneath cell towers,” Ms. Suskevich said. Councilwoman Rogers said no conclusive study exists to prove towers create health issues. “The tower will not endanger anyone, or create longterm health impacts,” Councilwoman Rogers said, adding that “talking on a cell phone carries a greater danger.” During an open forum at the last council meeting, Councilman Christopher Leitner told anti-tower residents that he and fellow council members are aware of, and sensitive to, the concerns. “Don’t think we are doing this lightly,” Councilman Leitner told residents at the meeting. “Basically we’re between a rock and a hard place.” Councilman Leitner, like Mayor Konkus and fellow council members, recognizes that federal law would likely make the tower inevitable — regardless of whether council approves.

Although council members were aware before Tuesday’s meeting that the meeting agenda included a vote on a CFO appointment, Councilman Leitner said he did not know who the governing body was moving to appoint. He said he and some other council members were not informed that Mr. Adams had been selected. Councilman Leitner would not comment specifically about which council members were left in the dark. “We didn’t receive so much as a phone call,” Councilman Leitner said of the lack of notification. “The frustration I, and other council members, feel is not new. “This problem with the leadership has happened on multiple occasions,” he continued. “We are seeing a very partisan council.” Yesterday, Councilwoman Rogers responded, “There are no covert operations here. Mr. Maffei put in on the agenda June 16. “[Councilman Leitner] doesn’t open his e-mails,” she continued. “If he did, he would have known. I can’t do his work for him.” Councilman Leitner and the other council members who he said were not notified did not allow lack of notice to interfere with the appointment, as evidenced by the vote Innovative Cuisine using the Finest Local Fish and Prime Meats tally. The second item that was up for a vote Tuesday also involved borough finances. Council members re-introduced the much anticipated, and controversial, 2010 municipal budget. As re-introduced, the budget includes a zero-percent municipal tax-rate increase. Councilwoman Rogers has led the charge in support of the budget, which she played an integral part in creating. A pending lawsuit filed in Ocean County Superior Court by resident Robert Dikun — Councilman Dikun’s brother — claims, among other things, that the borough did not provide sufficient notice prior to its first budget introduction, on Monday, June 7. Tuesday’s re-introduction vote was held to avoid potential penalties the borough could have faced for not adequately notifying the public, had Judge Vincent Grasso sided with the plaintiff. The lawsuit is scheduled to be heard today, at 9 a.m., in Superior Court in Toms River. Councilwoman Rogers announced the zero-percent tax-rate increase during the council meeting held May 18. She said, by using deferred school taxes, borough residents would not have to bear an increased tax burden this year. “The taxpayers cannot afford [a tax increase] right now,” Councilwoman Rogers said. The zero tax-rate increase was achieved by borrowing approximately $559,000 of deferred school taxes. “This is not, in any way, raiding the school’s funds,” Councilwoman Rogers said, in response to resident accusa- tions. She said there is a sixmonth, school tax reserve on hand, and that money will not only be paid back, but also will not be used in the meantime. Councilman McHugh, who voted against the budget, pointed out the school district is no longer receiving as high of an interest rate on collected school taxes that are not immediately used. “Interest rates are low,” Councilman McHugh said. The councilman said he remains uncertain that the school funds will be paid back. “There is no realistic way to pay [the money] back,” Councilman McHugh said at the meeting. “[The issue] is whether we should borrow the money this year,” he said. McHugh explained he is concerned that the budget relies on repaying school money based on a plan of projected “revenue next year.” Borough Administrator David Maffei said school funds are not in jeopardy. “We always have six months’ money in advance for the schools,” Mr. Maffei said Tuesday. “The school money will always be there,” he said. Mr. Maffei said, regardless of the when the money is repaid, school funds will always be available, because taxes are paid six months before being used. Councilwoman Rogers said she is certain that council will repay the district. She said she and the council have “an absolute, viable plan” to replenish the money. “[Using deferred school funds] is traditionally done throughout the state,” Councilwoman Rogers point- “Dunk Me!” ~ Now Booking Private Parties ~ ~ Gift Certificates Available ~ 732-899-5333 115 Broadway • Point Pleasant Beach Serving Dinner Tuesday thru Sunday at 4:00pm POINT PLEASANT BOROUGH FIRE CO.

During public comment, Robert Varela, of Sleepy Hollow Road, addressed the council members. Mr. Varela said state and federal governments have acted in a similar way, and the result has not been positive. He compared using deferred school tax money to when the state borrowed from the highway trust fund. “The money never gets paid back,” Mr. Varela said. “Politicians grab money and don’t worry about paying it back.” Mr. Varela said he believes Councilwoman Rogers intends to repay the funds, but he will “have to wait and see” whether the repayment plan works. Councilwoman Rogers said the borough has already repaid $88,000 using money that was saved through shared services. Although state statute permits the use of deferred school taxes in municipal budgets, no law exists that requires the money be paid back. Mr. Maffei has said the borough previously borrowed deferred school taxes. He said borough council members approved similar borrowing plans in the 1990s. According to Mr. Maffei, the borough still owes the school district more than $6 million. The re-introduced budget will now be sent to the New Jersey Department of Community Affairs for review. If approved after review, the budget will be sent back to the borough for a public hearing and second reading. Council members will then have the opportunity to vote on final passage. Councilman Leitner said he expects a vote by the end of the summer. The first budget introduction attempt, on Friday, June 4, resulted in a 3-3 tie council vote. Councilwomen Rogers and DePaola, along with Councilman Remig, were in favor, and councilmen Leitner, McHugh and Dikun were opposed. After conversations with Point Pleasant Borough Attorney Jerry Dasti, council members were informed Mayor Konkus could cast the deciding vote. Mayor Konkus did so, in favor of the budget introduction, during a special council meeting held on Monday, June 7. His vote provided the majority needed to approve the budget introduction. The pending lawsuit, in addition to claiming adequate notice was not provided, also claims Mayor Konkus is not legally permitted to cast a vote on the budget introduction. “[Mayor Konkus] is an integral part of the governing body,” Councilwoman Rogers said. She said the budget stands as introduced “until a judge deems otherwise.” 732-295-5518 Press 3 to leave a message • Meetings & Drills are on Wednesday nights.

Governor’s recognition program honors Point Pleasant teachers Thanks to the Governor’s Teacher Recognition Program, four outstanding teachers from the Point Pleasant Borough School District recently received well-deserved accolades for their efforts on behalf of the students of Point Pleasant. Mary Orrok from Point Pleasant Borough High School, Stacey Camilleri from Memorial Middle School, Charles Nied from Nellie Bennett Elementary School, and Diane Podesta from Ocean Road Elementary School were the district’s recipients of the Governor’s Teacher Recognition Award. Developed in 1985, the Governor’s Teacher Recognition Program acknowledges teachers who exhibit outstanding performance. The criteria for selection include use of effective instructional techniques and methods, establishment of a productive classroom climate and rapport with students and development of feelings of self-worth and love of learning in students. “The Governor’s Teacher Recognition Program provides an excellent opportunity for school systems and their communities to recognize exemplary teaching,” said Superintendent of Schools Vincent S. Smith. “We are fortunate that there are so many exceptional teachers in the Point Pleasant School District — but as the pool of nominees continues to grow, it is becoming increasingly more difficult to narrow it down to just one winner per school.” Initially nominated by parents and fellow staff members, the recipients of the Governor’s Teacher Recognition Award are selected by a panel consisting of district administrators, teachers, parents and community members. In making their selection, the committee members identified the four teachers for their use of creativity, innovation and efficiency in the classroom and their ability to increase student achievement ★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★ ★ ★ We’re also ★ ★ open for breakfast on ★ ★ our deck! ★ ★ lobster pot ★ ★ RESTAURANT ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Fresh Seafood.

As detailed in her nomination letter, Ms. Orrok is “a master teacher truly dedicated to her work, who, for the past 25 years, has worked tirelessly to instill love and respect for reading and writing in her students.” Ms. Orrok holds an undergraduate degree from Rutgers University, as well as a master’s degree from Temple University. During her nine years at Point Pleasant Borough High School, According to the committee nomination, Ms. Orrok has employed creativity and honor in her lessons, and has successfully made the learning experience enjoyable for all her students. During her six years in the Point Pleasant School District, Stacey Camilleri has been a source of inspiration and motivation for her students. Although her distinction in the Governor’s Teacher Recognition Program is associated with Memorial Middle School, Mrs. Camilleri is responsible for teaching the Italian language in the middle and high school, a discipline that she has established in the district. As stated in her nomination letter, Mrs. Camilleri has successfully encouraged success and high expectations, while consistently displaying patience, caring and guidance for all of her students. “Mrs. Diane Podesta is a professional with heart. She cares for her students and works hard so that her stu- dents can achieve to the best of their ability,” stated the nomination letter for Ocean Road Elementary School’s Teacher of Recognition. For the past 32 years, Mrs. Podesta has been captivating students with her innovative but proven teaching techniques, a positive attitude, and a great sense of humor. Holding both bachelor’s and master’s degrees from Jersey City State College, Mrs. Podesta is responsible for instructing her fifth-grade class in the areas of language arts, math, and social studies. For 20 years, beloved Nellie Bennett Elementary School kindergarten teacher Charles Nied has been making his students’ primary year of school both memorable and exciting. His multiple nomination letters for the Governor’s Teacher Recognition Program espouse his innovation and creativity in the classroom, as well as his role in providing a foundation for a lifetime love of learning in his students. “Teaching excellence is one of the most significant factors impacting student achievement and the quality of our schools,” said Mr. Smith. “These four teachers have consistently demonstrated superior teaching skills, thus enabling student success.” The Governor’s Teachers of Special Recognition were recognized by the Point Pleasant Board of Education at the school board’s May meeting, and also at a county-wide luncheon held at the Ritacco Center on Friday, May 28.

Barry Moffett, a Point Pleasant Beach resident, and his attorney, Steven A. Pardes, will seek board approval to construct the billiard hall on Route 35. If approved, the hall would be located at block 133, lot 56 — otherwise known as 1513 Richmond Ave., near the intersection of routes 35 and 88. Mr. Pardes said the property currently houses a vacant store next to the Walgreens, which was previously Drug Fair. Mr. Moffett and his attorney presented the idea to board members during an informal hearing last Thursday night. According to planning board secretary Cathy Kelly, because the meeting was informal, Mr. Padres did not submit a site plan to the board. According to Ms. Kelly, the board expects to receive a plan now that the informal meeting has taken place. Mr. Pardes asked board members whether he and Mr. Moffett could proceed with drafting a plan under exempt status. Similar projects are typically considered exempt when minimal construction, if any, is needed. “[Exempt status] is an abridged mechanism,” said James Giordano, Point Pleasant Planning Board Chairman. “It happens when site improvement is not involved,” he said. According to Mr. Giordano, Mr. Moffett plans to convert the existing building at 1513 Richmond Ave. into a billiard hall. Mr. Giordano said he and the other board members were not aware of Mr. Moffett’s intentions until the board members saw the agenda for Thursday’s meeting. He said it is common for a petitioner not to provide details of his plans prior to appearing before the board for an informal hearing. “[An informal hearing] is a way to get a general feel for the board,” Mr. Giordano said. He said Mr. Moffett and his attorney wanted to get an idea of where board members stand on the idea before drafting a formal presentation. Mr. Giordano said the board took appropriate measures regarding notification standards. “The public was notified,” Mr. Giordano said, adding “we expect to hear the plans in full at a meeting in the near future.” The next planning board meeting will take place in the auditorium at Point Pleasant Borough High School, on Thursday, July 15 at 7 p.m. Mr. Moffett said the idea to open a pool hall in Point Pleasant arose earlier this year, when he was looking for something to do with his sons. Mr. Moffett said his boys wanted to play pool, and after realizing the closest halls are in Toms River, he began plans to open a place in Point Pleasant. “There is virtually nothing for kids to do in town,” Mr. Moffett said, adding, “There is no bowling alley and no movie theater.” Mr. Moffett said he recognizes that pool halls may carry a negative stereotype. However, he said, his plans are to operate a family-friendly hall to provide kids with a place to go and learn a skill. Mr. Moffett is the president and CEO of Specialty Insurance, Inc. According to information on the company’s Web site, www.specialtyagencyonline.com, Mr. Moffett founded Specialty Insurance in 1976. The company, based on Route 88 in Brick, became a managing general agency in 1984. The insurance company specializes in the restaurant and tavern industries. In recent years, Mr. Moffett added hotels and motels to his extensive Northeast programs. He plans to expand those coverages throughout the country in the near future. Mr. Moffett told the planning board that he intends to install approximately 18 billiard tables, vending machines, and flat screen televisions in his proposed billiard hall. He did not give an indication of when, if approved, he would begin to transform the vacant store “I don’t think there would be enough time to have [the billiard hall] open by the end of the summer,” said planning board member Tom Kosinski. Planning Board Vice Chairman Carl Feltz voiced concern about allowing a billiard hall in the borough. Mr. Feltz specifically addressed the proposed hours of the hall. Mr. Moffett said he would like for the hall to be open from 11 a.m. to 2 a.m. the following morning. “I am not in favor at this time,” Mr. Feltz told fellow board members and Mr. Moffett at last Thursday’s meeting. He said he wants to hear more and see the exempt site plan, once submitted. “There is potential,” Mr. Feltz added. Although other members had questions regarding the operation, Mr. Feltz was the only board member to expressly state opposition to plan as presented. “When [Mr. Moffett] mentioned security,” Mr. Feltz said, “that set off a flag to me.” Mr. Moffett told the board he plans to have a longtime friend, who is a retired police officer, monitor and secure the facility.

Superintendent of Point Pleasant Borough Schools, Vincent S. Smith announced recently that the district has been designated “high-performing” by the New Jersey Quality Single Accountability Continuum [QSAC] process. Results for QSAC, the New Jersey Department of Education’s monitoring and evaluation system for public school districts, were received earlier this month in a letter from Department of Education Commissioner Bret Schundler “Under the QSAC evaluation process, districts must score at least 80 percent in each of the five general categories of operations management, instruction and program, governance, fiscal management, and personnel, to be designated ‘high-performing,’” said Superintendent Smith. According to the letter from Commissioner Schundler, the district far exceeded this requirement, by achieving perfect scores in the areas of operations management, personnel and governance, 99 percent in the area of fiscal management, and 83 percent in instruction and program. Mr. Smith said the district's conditions and performance were evaluated by the state over a three-year period, starting with the 2006-2007 school year and concluding with the 2008-2009 school year. He explained that the first step of the process involves the completion of a comprehensive district performance review [DPR], in each of the five specified areas. “For completion of the DPR, the district provides a self-assessment in subcategories of the five main categories, from instruction and program to governance, and Cartaino makes dean’s list at D.

Live the life you have imagined.” — Henry David Thoreau mentation and completing the assessments required for QSAC,” said Mr. Smith. “In the true spirit of the Point Pleasant School District, this was a total team effort involving the entire district administration, teachers and office staff. “While the administration has been confident in the longstanding tradition of excellence established in the Point Pleasant Borough School District, the outstanding QSAC scores serve as further validation of the exceptional performance of our staff and board of education,” he continued. Pursuant to state regulations, the district will be sharing the QSAC results at the June 21, board of education, meeting at which time a resolution to accept the results of the review process will be proposed to the board.

Participants then biked three loops around the bayfront community on Bay Boulevard, with one loop going through West Point Island, which is connected to Lavallette by way of the West Point Island Bridge, on New Brunswick Avenue. The participants then parked their bikes back at the Washington Avenue street-end and ran a 4-mile loop down Bay Boulevard - toward Ortley Beach, before looping back to the gazebo. Mr. Wilcox said trophies were given out to the top five overall finishers, and also to the top three in each gender’s age group. The age groupings begin with the 19 and under category, with participants aged 20 and older grouped into five-year brackets. The final age group is for race participants aged 65 and older. This year, Dave Slavinski, 39, of Point Pleasant, was the top overall finisher, with a time of N.

Although Mr. Slavinski has participated in several triathlons, this is the first time he has been in the LavaMan Triathlon. “My wife, Carrie Slavinski, participated last year, and I watched the kids,” Mr. Slavinski remarked. Mr. Slavinski owns Brielle Performance Center, a coaching service for running and triathlons. Mr. Slavinski said he has qualified for five world championship triathlons in the last three years. He has participated in triathlons in Hawaii, Maryland and will be participating in the Duathlon World Championship in Scotland on Labor Day weekend. He said the LavaMan was one of his favorite local races. “It’s probably the best local race I’ve done,” Mr. Slavinski said yesterday. “The venue is great, the people are great, and it’s a great spectator race.” Joe Donahue, 45, of Point Pleasant, came in second with a time of 1:07:41. Andrew Shore, 28, of Hoboken, came in third, in 1:08:13. In fourth place was Ricky Cullen makes dean’s list at Fairfield Univ.

Matt Kemple, 39, of Belmar, rounded out the top five with a time of 1:08:22.5. Point Pleasant resident Jacqui Kapinowski also participated in the LavaMan Triathlon. Mrs. Kapinowski placed 144th overall, with a time of 1:37:45, but was second in the female 45- to 49-year-old age group, and placed 26th overall in the women’s category. Her numbers are even more impressive considering the fact that Mrs. Kapinowski suffers from a rare disorder called stiffperson syndrome, which does not allow here to use her legs. She never lets her handicap slow her down, as she has been involved in 52 marathons, using her light-weight racing wheelchair, and was also a member of the 2010 Winter Paralympics curling team in Vancouver, Canada. “I haven’t done a triathlon in a long time, as I had taken off some time to participate in the Olympics,” Mrs. Kapinowski said this week. This is the first year she has participated in the LavaMan Triathlon. “It was fantastic,” Mrs. Kapinowski said. “Everybody was so supportive, and the energy was incredible from everyone. “I was the only disabled person there in a wheelchair, so it was an honor to be part of it,” Mrs. Kapinowski added. In order to participate, Mrs. Kapinowski had to do a backstroke for the swimming portion, used her handcycle for the biking portion, and used her racing wheelchair for the run. On July 18, Mrs. Kapinowski will be participating in the New York City Triathlon in Manhattan, where she will do a Lavallette Community Calendar To submit a calendar listing or Lavallette news story, e-mail csheldon@theoceanstar.com Beach District Offers Child Find Program Photo Courtesy of TARA LAUDUCCI Jacqui Kapinowski, of Point Pleasant, participated in Saturday’s LavaMan Sprint Triathlon in a unique way, by using her handcycle and racing wheelchair, respectively, for the biking and running portions of the event. 1-mile swim in the Hudson River, 25 miles across the borough in her handcycle, followed by a 10-kilometer run through Central Park using her racing wheelchair. Mrs. Kapinowski said she she will “absolutely” participate in the LavaMan Triathlon next year. Mr. Wilcox said the triathlon drew 146 participants last year, and sold out at 250 this year. “It’s a typical pattern for a race that is in development,” Mr. Wilcox said. “Much of the growth is word of mouth, and this race has seemed to catch on with the community,” Mr. Wilcox added. Mr. Wilcox said he was “very pleased” with the community’s reception of the triathlon. “Lavallette is such a beautiful community to be able to race along the Jersey Shore, with it’s beautifully-kept roads and homes — it doesn’t get any better,” the race director said. He said the fact that the race fell on Father’s Day brought out all different groups of people, including members of the Zayko family, of Lebanon, who came out to race in memory of their father, Lance Ruble, who died of cancer. “We want to develop the race into one that brings out racers who want to put the effort in for their own cause,” Mr. Wilcox said.

The protesters will meet at 11:30 a.m. on Lavallette’s Brown Avenue beach tomorrow. The oil spill, which began when the Deepwater Horizon rig — which was being operated on behalf of energy giant BP [British Petroleum] — exploded in April, killing 11 crew members and spewing oil into the gulf. The damaged ocean-floor oil well has continued to leak thousands of barrels of oil each day, despite various efforts to cap or plug the leak. The spill is devastating hundreds of communities in four of the states surrounding the Gulf of Mexico, and some worry that current could carry the spilled oil outside the gulf area. There are concerns that remnants of the spill could possibly reach the Jersey Shore in the future, especially if the spill is not fully contained. A letter sent on June 10 from U.S. Senator Robert Menendez [D-N.J.] and other Atlantic Coast senators to the federal government cited unofficial projections indicating that oil could be carried by the Loop Current to the Gulf Stream, eventually making its way up the East Coast. The Loop Current curves through the Gulf of Mexico and around the tip of Florida, meeting the Gulf Stream in the Atlantic Ocean. The Gulf Stream runs along the East Coast before veering east into the Atlantic Ocean. The oil off of Louisiana has not reached the Loop Current yet, and it is uncertain that it would ever touch New Jersey. According to the letter, seeing BP oil reach the East Coast is a highly unlikely outcome. A recent statement issued by New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection [DEP] Commissioner Bob Martin assures Jersey Shore residents that, most likely, the oil will not affect the area. “The oil could only reach New Jersey through a sequence Council denies organization’s request for temporary free beach access By Chris Sheldon The Lavallette Borough Council denied Save Barnegat Bay’s request to give free beach access to participants in the organization’s upcoming event called “Hands Across the Sand,” slated to take place at the Brown Avenue beach tomorrow. The council denied the request during its meeting Monday night. Tomorrow, demonstrators are planning to gather on the beach in Lavallette and Seaside Heights, as well as other locations up and down the Jersey Shore, to protest offshore drilling, with the recent BP [British Petroleum] Deepwater Horizon oil spill a focus of the event. The consensus of the council was that beach badges are required for all those who wish to enter the beach between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays, regardless of a person’s reason for visiting the beach. Borough Attorney Philip George said the borough is “not in position” to waive the fee for Save Barnegat Bay, or any other organization that wishes to use the beach free of charge. Borough Administrator Chris Parlow agreed with Mr. George. “I don’t see anything in the ordinance which allows you to waive [the beach badge requirement],” Mr. Parlow said. Mr. George added that if the borough wished to waive the beach badge requirement for an organization, the council would have to amend its beach badge ordinance. Mayor Walter LaCicero said the council “wouldn’t be able to waive it in time for [Save Barnegat Bay’s] event,” because the amendment would have to be introduced during Monday night’s council meeting and approved, on second reading, during the council’s next meeting, slated for July 12. Since no council member made a motion to waive to beach badge fee, Save Barnegat Bay’s request was denied by the council. JOSEPH J. DELCONZO, The Ocean Star Lavallette officials, like their counterparts in many other Shore communities, say they are monitoring the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, and preparing for the unlikely event that oil could make its way around the Florida panhandle, and up the coast to New Jersey. of unlikely, atypical events — and, even then, would not reach our coast until at least late autumn,” according to the statement. Nevertheless, Commissioner Mart has created a Gulf Spill Team, which is monitoring the situation in the gulf. While the likelihood of the BP spill damaging New Jersey’s beaches appears to be small, some local towns are looking ahead, and preparing for worstcase scenarios. Retired Point Pleasant Beach Police sergeant Guy Dempsey is the borough’s emergency management coordinator, and said he was briefed by the DEP on how to handle the situation “in the amazing and highly unlikely event oil made its way up here.” “They told us the chances are slim to none,” Mr. Dempsey said this week. “We could have tiny, little oil balls, which people probably would not even notice, and they would be very scattered,” he said. Mr. Dempsey said the soonest residents would see would the oil balls, sometimes referred to as tar balls, in local waters, if at all, would be the end of October or early November. According to the DEP, the state agency, along with the New Jersey State Police, the New Jersey Office of Emergency Management, and Homeland Security officials are now working on a plan of action to deal with the “unlikely” possibility that the oil balls would reach the Jersey Shore. “If we did see any effects, we would fall back to the state DEP and [Ocean] County Emergency Management to assist in that predicament, and get resources from them,” Mr. Dempsey said. Bay Head Mayor William Curtis said, while he has been keeping an eye on the situation unfolding in the gulf, there is nothing the borough can do at this point. “If we see it coming around the tip of Florida, we’ll start preparing,” said Mayor Curtis. Councilman John DeFilippis, chairman of the Bay Head Council’s public works committee, said this week he did not see any cause for concern until the situation becomes more of a real possibility. “All we can do is keep our eyes open and listen to what NOAA [National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration] tells us,” he said. Lavallette Mayor Walter LaCicero is convinced that the borough will be prepared to respond if tar balls eventually wash up on local shores. “We’re well-equipped to clean the beach,” said Mayor LaCicero. “We had tar balls on the shore before, and if you don’t disturb them too much, it’s really not a big deal.” Mayor LaCicero said oil tankers used to be rinsed off the coast about 40 years ago, a practice which has since been banned. The rinsing would cause tar balls to wash up on the shore during winter months. Save Barnegat Bay, according to Ms. O’Reilly, intends to be involved with cleanup efforts in the unlikely event that oil reaches the Shore. Ms. O’Reilly said she hopes the current effects of the oil spill will motivate people to look progressively at alternatives to off-shore drilling. “We need sustainable, longterm clean energy,” Ms. O’Reilly said.

By Nick Malfitano The Women’s Republican Club of Mantoloking and Bay Head has named its honored member this year, Bay Head resident Elizabeth “Betty” Hurley. At their annual picnic, approximately 80 guests arrived to warmly greet the longtime and beloved member of the community. Mrs. Hurley currently serves as the program chairperson and advisor for the organization, but served for five years as a past president of the club. “She is an inspiration to us all,” said past club president Helene DeFilippis. Bay Head Councilwoman and past club president D’Arcy Rohan Green said Mrs. Hurley is “one of our greatest citizens, and a real guiding light” to the Women’s Republican Club. “She’s a wonderful citizen, a mentor, and a dear friend,” the councilwoman said. Mrs. Hurley was crowned “Queen Bee” of the organization, and was presented with “She is an inspiration to all.” — Helene DeFilippis Past president of the Women’s Republican Club of Mantoloking and Bay Head, of club honoree Elizabeth ‘Betty’ Hurley both a jeweled tiara and a patriotic-themed pin from Tiffany & Company, among other gifts from the club’s members. “I just couldn’t imagine why everyone came out for me,” Mrs. Hurley humbly stated. However, the members of the club were not the only dignitaries who wished to recognize the dedication and values that Mrs. Hurley has brought to the community. At the ceremony itself, she received proclamations of commendation from a prestigious list of dignitaries: Bay Head Mayor William Curtis, U.S. Rep. Chris Smith, Ocean County Freeholders James Lacey and John Kelly, Ocean County Clerk Carl Block and Deputy Clerk Scott Colabella, as well as Gov. Chris Christie and Lt. Gov. Kim Guadagno. The final certificate was presented on behalf of Gov. Christie by his father, who attended the picnic, and several of the local and state leaders offered words of praise to Mrs. Hurley. “It is through these prominent speakers that our Women’s Republican Club has gained recognition and prestige,” said Mrs. DeFilippis. Mrs. Hurley mentioned that one week before the picnic, Councilwoman Green and club vice president Valerie McDowell asked her if they could show their gratitude for her contributions, but said that she did not anticipate the overwhelming response she received. “The picnic is a club tradition, and we felt it was impor- ~ District Asks For Help Identifying Special Needs Children Know of any residents between the ages of 3 and 21 with an educational problem?

Mrs. Hurley also noted that she is still a member of the Monmouth County LSA, who recently made her a lifetime member. “They’ve supported me all the way,” Mrs. Hurley said. Also, Mrs. Hurley has been an active parishioner and fixture in Bay Head’s Sacred Heart Church for 40 years. Mrs. DeFilippis commented that Mrs. Hurley has always been “full of energy and enthusiasm, which she has passed on to all of us.” Furthermore, Mrs. McDowell said Mrs. Hurley donated the municipal clock on Bridge Avenue to the town in October 2004, in memory of her late husband and former Bay Head mayor Michael Hurley. Mrs. McDowell was very proud to see her friend and colleague receive these richlydeserved accolades. “I’m so impressed with what she has achieved over the years, she is one of a kind,” she said. Mrs. Hurley sincerely thanked all club members, those responsible for planning the ceremony, as well as everyone who came to the picnic. “It was a wonderful day,” said Mrs. Hurley.

Mayor’s Wellness Program kicks off By Nick Malfitano The Mayor’s Wellness Program, titled “Go Bay Head!,” began its schedule of events for the year with a presentation from a local physician, directed at the borough’s female population. Spearheaded by Bay Head Mayor William Curtis, the Wellness Program has the goal of promoting fitness, wellbeing, and good health in the Bay Head community. It advocates active living and healthy food choices as the keys to fitness and wellness, regardless of one’s age and gender. Mayor Curtis said this week he is happy to be supporting and participating in the Mayor’s Wellness Program. “I think it’s an excellent program,” he said. “It’s one that can help people to live a little healthier.” Mayor Curtis noted the program is being continuously developed by an enthusiastic and dedicated committee, which is exploring “various avenues of wellness.” One such avenue was a recent presentation on given by Dr. Gail Zimmerman. Dr. Zimmerman, one of only seven certified menopause practitioners in the state of New Jersey, recently held a lecture in her Main Street office. Well-attended by local residents, Dr. Zimmerman’s onehour program centered on helping women recognize the symptoms of perimenopause, the period when women, usually in their 40s, begin to transition into menopause. Following a lively question and answer session, local resident and therapist Wendy Turton commented, “It’s so important for women to recognize that they are not alone, and that these symptoms are normal.” Dr. Zimmerman, who was trained at the Columbia Presbyterian College of Physicians and Surgeons, has been practicing preventive and J. Losseff graduates Lasell College internal medicine in Bay Head for 12 years, and has developed a sub-specialty in women’s health issues, including menopause and weight management. Dr. Zimmerman’s talk was the first in the summer series of events that comprise the Mayor’s Wellness Program, which is part of the Sustainable New Jersey program. Some future Mayor’s Wellness Program activities include multiple talks throughout the summer, sponsored by Dr. Zimmerman and Patti Durkin, of Therapeutic Fitness, classes on healthy cooking for children, a water safety program at the beach, and a summer youth recreation program. The committee co-chair, Char Charlton, has developed walking tour maps which will be available throughout the borough all summer. Also, there are new, healthy “Go Bay Head!” cookies available in Mueller’s Bakery on Bridge Avenue. For a schedule of future activities, visit www.bayheadnj.us/mwc.

KITTY STILLUFSEN Channel Drive, Point Pleasant Beach ~ POINT DEMOCRAT THANKS VOTERS FOR SUPPORT Editor, The Ocean Star: I would like to thank everyone who participated in the write-in campaign for Bill Schroeder, Bob Rusk, and myself to represent the Democrats of Point Pleasant in the coming election. After November, I hope we can say we represent not just the Democrats but all Point Pleasant residents. Five years ago when my wife and I moved our young family here, I didn't know much about the town, but I was impressed with the schools, the Recreation Center, the library, and how many parks there were in such a small area. Most of all, I loved seeing kids everywhere. I wanted my children to grow up in a tight-knit, young, dynamic community. Our lives have flourished here, and Point Pleasant has changed my life for the better in more ways than I can list in this note. I look forward to serving the town that has already given me so much, and I invite everyone who wants to grow our community to join me on Facebook and Twitter. Thank you very much. CHRISTOPHER GOSS Kilkare Parkway, Point Pleasant ~ COUPLE THANKS FACULTY OF LAVALLETTE SCHOOL Editor, The Ocean Star: To the Teachers and Staff of Lavallette School, We would like to take this opportunity to recognize and sincerely thank all of you for the wonderful care, effort, atmosphere, and above all, knowledge you’ve provided our children. Beginning twenty years ago with our niece Christina Jarosinski, following on with Luke, Michael, Arianna and now finishing with our daughter, Kayla Schardien this year, we've shared many pleasurable memories with everyone along the way. Living in a small community like Lavallette provides the unique opportunity of having both professional and personal friendships with one another where it brings exclusivity to educating our children. It's been such a pleasure to have such a dedicated and respected group of people teaching them. Carl Gustav Jung, the Swiss psychologist and psychiatrist once said, “One looks back with appreciation to the brilliant teachers, but with gratitude to those who touched our human feelings. The curriculum is so much necessary raw material, but warmth is the vital element for the growing plant and for the soul of the child.” You've planted the seeds of knowledge, created a desire to learn and cultivated their minds; where it can take them now is limitless. Time, as we all know, marches on. Kayla will have new opportunities to learn and grow. Our hope is that her time is spent with teachers having the same level of commitment she’s had in Lavallette. You've provided a firm foundation on which she can build, with that same level of dedication there, we'll see her thrive. Her eventual POINT PLEASANT BIDS A FOND FAREWELL TO FATHER ALPHONSE Editor, The Ocean Star: It is with much sadness that I, one of the Wednesday night “beach concertgoers” bid farewell and good luck to Father Alphonse Stephenson as he leaves for Washington D.C. I will miss his great performances and appreciate all of the time and effort he has given in the last twenty years. News that the Storino Family at Jenkinson’s has decided to continue with the tradition “music on the beach” on Wednesday nights was a welcome surprise. Free and quality family entertainment is something rare these days. My friends and I look forward to again meeting on the beach, under the stars to be entertained! THERESA CICALESE Cardinal Drive, Point Pleasant ~ FLOCKING COMMITTEE THANKS DEDICATED VOLUNTEERS Editor, The Ocean Star: An end to another flocking season has come, and our Father’s Day flock has arrived at their final destination in the library district. As I retire as “Mother Flocker” after 6 fun-filled years, I would like to thank my team: Debbie, Elaine, Meg, Erin, Helen, Melissa, Bambi, Chris and Sherry [who will be taking over as Mother Flocker in 2011] without this great team of wonderful women, I would not have been able to have survived this year... There were also some guest flockers this year I would like to thank: Kim, Tymara and June, all the families, neighbors, teachers, administrators and friends who have played along over the last 6 years. The residents of Bay Head, especially Christine Hesse, who kept me very busy with my out of town flock this year! It has been an honor and a privilege to have been part of this annual fundraiser, I hope that we have brought a few smiles to our town this season. Our final flock goes to a man our team decided has made an impact on our lives and our children. Happy Father’s Day Chief DePolo, thank you for your years of service keeping our town and our kids safe. DONNAMARIA ADELIZZI-DIAZ Atlantic Avenue, Point Pleasant Beach ~ THANKS TO THOSE WHO KEEP POINT BEACH BEAUTIFUL Editor, The Ocean Star: I am certain that I speak on behalf of our entire community and our many visitors when I say “thank you” to the volunteers of the Point Pleasant Beach Beautification Committee [PPBBC]. These dedicated individuals maintain the many flowered areas in Point Pleasant Beach. One area which is particularly beautiful is the Butterfly Garden, located at the corner of Parkway and Ocean Avenue. Originally paid for by donations from Parkway residents, friends and local business owners, the PPBBC has maintained this area for over 5 years. It is truly a beautiful sight to sore eyes when transiting such a busy area. The PPBBC, like many groups, has lost much of its funding due to budget cuts. If you’re looking for a great gift idea, consider making a tax-deductible donation to the Point Pleasant Beach Endowment fund.

The committee’s duties included establishing an exhibit area where local residents could display their artwork, planning concert series, and bringing theatrical and musical performances to the borough. ~ Five Years Ago Point Pleasant Borough introduced an ordinance that barred registered sex offenders from living within a 2,500-foot radius of any school, park, playground or daycare center. Those subject to the ordinance had 60 days to relocate. ~ One Year Ago Today Mayor Vincent Barrella vetoed the Point Pleasant Beach Council’s decision to increase the water/sewer standby charge. It was the first time in the history of Point Pleasant Beach that a mayor had used his veto power.

PAGE 21 THE OCEAN STAR, FRIDAY, JUNE 25, 2010 — BOARD — From Page 14 safety on the premises, his comment appeared to raise concern over why security would be needed at the proposed billiard hall. Mr. Feltz said, if there was no potential for the establishment to create a nuisance to the neighborhood, then security would not be needed. “I’m not against a pool hall,” Mr. Feltz said. “Point Pleasant just isn’t the place for one. It seems [the pool hall] could be a place to loiter legally. “[The pool hall] could be a burden to the town — not only to residents, but also to our police officers,” Mr. Feltz added. “It is better to be safe than to be sorry,” Mr. Moffett said. Point Pleasant Mayor Martin Konkus said he is in favor of the plan, “as long as security is ade- quate.” Mayor Konkus said he would need to review the written proposal before making a decision. Point Pleasant Council President Susan Rogers, who also sits on the planning board, said at Thursday’s meeting that she, too, will need to see the plan before deciding. “I’m basically in favor,” Ms. Rogers said. Mr. Kosinski said he has some concern about the noise level that the hall could generate. He said he would not want nearby homeowners to be disturbed if people were to congregate outside the hall. “We would prefer [anyone outside] to be on the Route 35 side of the building,” Mr. Kosinski said, adding “The building would then act as a buffer” to residents in homes behind the facility. Mr. Kosinski said he looks favorably upon new businesses opening in Point Pleasant — so long as the businesses enhance, not burden, the community. “[Board members] try to make sure that, when businesses are open late near residences, we do due diligence to make sure there will be no negative impact,” he said. “It would be nice to have [a] different type of business, and it will give people an alternative place to go.” Mr. Moffett said he spoke with nearby residents before approaching the board. “I spoke to every resident that lives close, and not one had a single complaint” about the proposed pool hall, Mr. Moffett said. He said several residents told him they play pool and would like a billiard hall in town. Mr. Moffett said he intends to submit an official plan to the board by the end of the summer. GETTING IT RIGHT, THE FIRST TIME A key factor in determining the successful outcome of breast augmentation surgery involves choosing the right-sized implant. Patient dissatisfaction, in which most patients wished that their breasts appeared larger, leads to approximately one-third of all revision operations. In order to get it right the first time, some plastic surgeons offer prospective breast augmentation patients the chance to wear trial implants that are worn in their bras under their clothes. Another implant selection method involves measuring the width of the patient’s breasts, the distance from the nipple to the crease under the breast, and the skin’s elasticity. It is very important that patients exercise care in selecting a surgeon. It is best to choose a surgeon who has had specialized training and experience in plastic surgery to help them properly evaluate the risks versus the benefits of breast augmentation sur- gery. To schedule a consultation for cosmetic surgery, please call SEA SHORE PLASTIC AND HAND SURGERY CENTER. We provide you with a private and relaxed environment, where you are given enough time to address all of your concerns. P.S. According to a poll by the National Women’s Health Resource Center, half of the women in the United States say that they know someone who has had breast implants.

JOHN PETER & ELAINE SCHARDIEN Newark Avenue, Lavallette ~ POINT BEACH COUNCIL DOES NOT GOVERN FOR RESIDENTS Editor, The Ocean Star: Unbelievable and frightening are the best words I can use to describe the Point Pleasant Beach Borough Council, and the June 15 council meeting. The decision to cut the Hotel/Motel Tax in half was fiscally irresponsible and demonstrates a total disregard for the residents of our town. To GIVE AWAY over $100,000 in revenue, while raising taxes and water bills, furloughing employees, and cutting the police budget, is the ultimate in irresponsible governance. There were certainly other issues to be concerned about. Councilwoman Tooker again pushed the Shade Tree ordinance to take control of trees on private property. Fortunately, it was defeated. However, at a cost to date of over $9,300 to the taxpayers, it can still come back. Her next idea is to permanently move the cat trailers on to Cooks Lane in the residential zone. I’m sure the residents will love a cat trailer park on their street. Residents better come to the next council meeting. The parking pass made a comeback via Councilman Dyer, despite the prior concerns of the police chief that it was unenforceable and abused by residents, and that it was a revenue loss according to our Administrator. Clearly no point in listening to the professionals. It again will not be available to second home owners, even though they pay the taxes that support the program. Nothing like dividing the community. Rather than increase the water rates as other utilities do so that the heavy users pay more, the connect fee is going up again to $120 for everyone. According to Councilman Dyer, the second home owners aren’t paying their “fair share”. This was the basis of the old system that forced everyone to pay for 10,000 gallons whether it was used or not. In targeting the second home owner, it also hurt the low end user unfairly. The high end users that consume the most as part of their business can pass it along to their customers and take it off on their taxes. Residents cannot. Sadly, being fair to the residents isn’t a priority of this administration. There was a flip-flop on allowing a bar in town to serve beer outside during the jazz festival. At the May 25 meeting the request was rejected. On June 15, everyone on council thought it was a great idea. What’s a jazz fest without an outside beer garden? Quality of life isn’t that important. The decision to change the zoning of structures east of the boardwalk where building was restricted, was the most disturbing announcement that night. The agreement is the result of litigation brought by a boardwalk business owner. Although our attorney recommended that the town litigate and not settle, he was given instructions by the “council” to resolve the matter out of court. I think residents should question exactly who made that authorization, when, where, and why. What is the benefit to the town? If you’re as frustrated and frightened by these council members as I am, then you must remember in November.

Leitner, M.D. PROSTATITIS Prostatitis (inflammation of the prostate) takes three forms, which range from annoying to severe. They include nonbacterial prostatitis, the most common type, which causes frequent urination and pain in the lower back or abdomen; acute bacterial prostatitis, which can produce fever, low-back pain, frequent and painful urination, urinary retention, and a less forceful urine stream, and chronic prostatitis, which brings repeated bladder infections, frequent urination, and pain in the lower abdomen or low back. By carefully examining a patient’s urine and prostate, the urologist can diagnose the type of prostatitis that a patient has and rule out other, more serious, problems. Treatment can then begin according to the type of prostatitis that has presented itself. We are dedicated to providing you with experienced and professional urologic care. Your good health is our highest priority and we want you to be satisfied with your treatment and our recommendations. For additional information and to schedule an appointment, call 732-223-7877 for our office located at 2401 Highway 35 (Orchard Park Medical Building), Manasquan or 732-206-9830 for the office at 525 Jack Martin Blvd., Suite 102, Brick. We treat genitourinary problems for adults and children. P.S. Initially, both acute and chronic prostatitis are treated with antibiotics, while nonbacterial prostatitis is treated with anti-inflammatories or muscle relaxants to ease symptoms.

What does a parent do as he stands beside the bed waiting and watching for a glimmer of hope? Who will pay the doctor for the special treatment or operation that is needed in order to save the child’s life? How will they go to work while their loved one needs watching and love every day? The Carmie Brady Foundation was founded by caring members of the community in order to assist the parents of children who are suffering from cancer and other childhood diseases. Unlike most charitable organizations, every cent that is raised is distributed to families of sick children in Monmouth and Ocean counties. The foundation is registered as a 501c3 nonprofit, charitable organization. All contributions, both monetary and physical, are tax deductible. To date, the foundation has raised over $80,000, all of which is being distributed to families of seriously ill children. The foundation is limited only by its ability to raise funds. They need the help of the community. Delaney makes dean’s list at East Stroudsburg Point Pleasant resident Kelly Delaney has achieved dean’s list standing for the spring semester at East Stroudsburg University, in Pennsylvania.

Their third annual fundraiser will be held at Bar Anticipation in Lake Como on June 27 from 1-6 p.m. The goal is to have over 1,000 caring people in attendance, and to raise over $100,000, all of which will be distributed to the families of sick children, many of whom are facing bankruptcy because of staggering medical bills. In order to continue their good work, the foundation needs the participation of all members of the community. Festivities at this event will include a gift auction, an oldfashioned barbecue and happy hour prices. Entertainment will be provided by the Pipes and Drums of the Jersey Shore. The foundation asks that the community please join them for this fundraiser. Drzymkowski graduates Rowan Univ.

Ms. Tursini was born in Hasbrouck Heights, and when she was 11, she moved to Parsippany, where she graduated from Parsippany High School in 1973. She then attended Fairleigh Dickinson University in Madison and received her bachelor of arts in elementary education. She came back to earn her master’s in 1979, so she could become a learning disabilities teacher consultant. She also became certified as a teacher of the handicapped, and teacher of handicapped preschool children. Ms. Tursini said she always knew she wanted to be a teacher. “Ever since I was a little girl, my father encouraged me and I went right with it,” Ms. Tursini said. Her father, Jim DeNuto, died in 1983, at the age of 66, and her mother, Rita DeNuto, died a year later, also at the age of 66. Ms. Tursini started teaching in 1981 at Lake Parsippany Elementary School, in Parsippany, as a special education teacher for grades kindergarten through six. Ms. Tursini taught there for about six six years before taking a job at Brooklawn Middle School, also as a special education teacher, and has been there for a little over 21 years. Despite her morning commute of about two hours, she said she would not trade her job for anything in the world. “I love where I work, and I love where I live,” Ms. Tursini said. “The ride is only the journey between them, so it makes it easy.” Ms. Tursini said she became inspired to be a special education teacher after an encounter she had when she was younger. “I was on a plane coming from Virginia to New Jersey, and I met a woman who suggested that the second I get off the plane, to go and study for special education,” she said. “I wish today that I could meet her and say thank you. ... It was like a message from heaven telling me what I should be,” she recalled. Ms. Tursini said she loves helping children who need the P er this year. extra attention.

Ms. Tursini also found homes for several kittens from Meadow’s Spirit Cat Rescue in Manahawkin. Meadow’s Sprit Cat Rescue is a no-kill animal shelter which traps, neuters and releases cats from local colonies. “I found homes for nine of their kittens through my school,” Ms. Tursini said. The Parsippany Animal Shelter is also a recipient of food, toys and animal bedding donated by Ms. Tursini. Ms. Tursini loves animals and says she tries to do everything she can to help them. “I’m an animal lover and beyond — but I’m not a crazy cat lady,” Ms. Tursini said, with a laugh. She also donates to Downey Side, in Point Pleasant Beach, an adoption agency for children ages 7 to 17. Volunteering her time to help these organizations is one of Ms. Tursini’s greatest joys in life. She said she has been able to pass her joy on to her children, as well. “The greatest reward I get from volunteering is that my daughters are following in my footsteps,” she said. Marisa just became a volunteer for the Make-A-Wish Foundation after completing a six-hour certification course in Philadelphia, Pa. Ms. Tursini said one of her students at Brooklawn Middle School was a Make-A-Wish recipient, and got a trip to Disney World in Orlando, Fla., as a result. Both Marisa and Lisa do community service for the Lavallette Municipal Alliance. They volunteer for beach cleanup days in the summer, and at the Upper Shores Branch of Ocean County Library, in Lavallette. Her daughters also sell beach badges in Lavallette and help run children’s picnics on West Point Island, according to their proud mother. Ms. Tursini said she is glad she has been able to do so many things that help so many people throughout her life. “Not everybody is so lucky to find their paradise and a passion for living like I have,” Ms. Tursini said.

On June 10, students in grades five through eight walked the Manasquan Bike Path, from the Allenwood General Store to Allaire State Park, a distance of roughly 2 miles. They were accompanied by chaperones and their teachers, who supervised the students as they enjoyed time spent outdoors supplemented with educational instruction. “The day was designed as a way to ‘get fit with science,’ explained eighth-grade teacher Barbara Martin. Mrs. Martin said the idea for the trip came from sixth-grade social studies teacher Tom Kennedy. The trip was designed to allow students in grades five through eight to enjoy fresh air and outdoor activities before the school year ended. The students were able to participate in scientific experiments that would promote their understanding of various scientific concepts and cooperative learning. Groups of students rotated between different challenge activities, including creating a ramp using a newspaper and masking tape and creating an anemometer, a device commonly used by weather stations to measure wind speed. In addition, the students also learned FAMILY OWNED & OPERATED Come to where the locals eat! All meals prepared to order! We do take-out BREAKFAST SERVED ALL DAY!

These activities were codesigned by Anne Marie Wisliceny and Ellen Tweed, respectively, fifth- and seventh- • grade science teachers at the Bay Head School. “The experiments were facilitated by teachers who worked as team leaders, guiding the students to understand the importance of working cooperatively to solve problems,” Mrs. Martin said. “The students truly enjoyed the day,” she said. “Many were surprised by how much fun they could have ‘playing with science’ in the park.” PARENT Children & divorce: What to do when their world falls apart By Ara C. Trembly M.S., M.A. Sam is a 6-year-old watching his parents have one of their many arguments. He hears his angry mom saying mean things to dad [whom he loves] and his frustrated dad saying awful things to mom [whom he also loves]. Then he hears mom say that she is leaving, and dad saying the same — and the world as he knows it comes crashing down. He runs to them and tries in vain to pull them closer together, but the anger and frustration are too great for mom and dad to even recognize such a desperate and touching gesture. For children who have built their whole lives on the security that comes from mother and father together, the prospect of their parents’ divorce is more frightening than any nightmare manufactured by Hollywood. Most of us recognize that divorce has a devastating effect on children, yet often that sobering fact is not enough to prevent couples from separating and divorcing. Once the decision is made, however, it behooves parents to do all they can to lessen the severity of what is often a terrific blow to a child’s sense of safety and self-esteem. Following are some guidelines for parents who have reached the decision to divorce: • Tell them it is not their fault. It is very common for children to blame themselves for their parents’ breakup and to tearfully promise to behave better if mom and dad will stay together. Yet in virtually every case, the problems that lead to divorce do not originate from the children’s behavior. Kids need to be carefully and repeatedly told that what is happening is not their fault. They won’t always believe it, but both parents must get that message across. • Don’t drag the kids into your conflict. It is also not unusual for parents who are divorcing to try to get the kids to side with them in the battle against their spouse. Few things are more hurtful to kids, however, than being forced to take sides in a war between the two people they love most. Your children are upset enough about what is happening; don’t make it worse by trying to manipulate them into supporting your side in this personal battle. • Don’t “assume” about your kids’ feelings. A child may appear to be unaffected or may say she doesn’t care about her parents staying together, but that doesn’t necessarily mean some serious fear and anger are not just under the surface. Help your child to find a trusted individual to talk with about feelings and about the changes and challenges that will almost certainly come in her life. • Keep things as “normal” as possible. Mom and dad may be living apart, but that doesn’t mean that everything has to change for the kids. Work on a child custody settlement that allows children to remain in a familiar school system and to continue to see their close friends. Certainly some things must change, but the more a child’s world can “stay the same,” the easier it is for the child to regain a sense of security. • Reconsider. Is your decision to divorce really the best thing for your family, or is there a chance you could work out your issues with a counseling professional? Before you pull the trigger on this painful adversarial process, consider giving it one more try. Ara C. Trembly, M.S., M.A. is a counselor in practice at Upper Room Counseling Associates, Allentown.

As the Gulls gather for another offseason SUEANNE GOSS, The Ocean Star In his second year at the helm of the Boro girl’s basketball team, Coach Dave Drew guided a talented group of players to the South Jersey Group III title. Coach Drew enjoying Boro’s rise to the top By Adam Hochron POINT PLEASANT — The Point Boro girls basketball team wrapped up its season several months ago, but, like many of his players, Coach Dave Drew still smiles from ear to ear thinking of all that they accomplished. With an infusion of athletically gifted freshmen joining an already established group of veterans, Coach Drew and his team cruised through the B South season and ended up South Jersey Group III Champions. On that early March night when the Lady Panthers welcomed Deptford to town for the sectional final, Coach Drew said the memory of that 69-42 drubbing will stay with him for a long time to come. “I never really put any expectations on them,” he said, of his mostly young squad. “But we were sitting in a packed house, and I knew this was a very good thing. I’m still smiling about it, and I’ll continue to smile about it for the rest of my life.” For the former Point Beach three-sport athlete, coming to the Boro took some getting used to. But, after seven years in the district, the Felician College graduate said he now feels at home working with both his special education students at Memorial Middle School and his players at the high school level. See DREW, page 36 SUEANNE GOSS, The Ocean Star With the Beach boys basketball team hosting its first sectional final this year, alum and Coach Nick Catania has seen his hard work with the team pay off. session this summer, Catania and his staff have their hands full, as a team that was once struggling to win games or attract fans is now one of the most highly regarded programs at the Shore. A member of the Point Pleasant Beach High School Class of 1995, Catania had a successful turn as a player during his time at the school. Afterward, he earned his degree in health and physical education from Trenton State College, now The College of New Jersey. Originally a business major, Catania said, when injuries derailed his basketball career, education became the logical next step for him to stay close to the game. “I missed it, and I decided I wanted to stay around the game, even though I wasn’t allowed to play as much at the level I was used to playing,” he said. Catania said he credits the good reputation of the college with helping him land a teaching job right out of college, at Middletown South High School. While there, Catania spent one year on the staff of nearby Middletown North, helping the Lions win the Group IV state championship. After a year at Middletown North, and two years as associate head coach at Ocean County College, Catania was given the opportunity to come back to the Beach. He had the chance to not only run his own program, but also to give back to the school that he said had already given him so much. “I’ve always felt like this school has done a lot for me, and I’ve always been loyal to the program and the school and the community,” he said. The school was an important part of Catania’s life growing up, but the coach said more than the school, the gym was where he always seemed to drift. “I’ve always loved that gym for whatever reason,” he said. “Even as a kid, junior or senior year of high school, I used to think my coach was the luckiest guy in the world See CATANIA, page 38 Taking His Place Among the All-Stars STEVE WEXLER, The Ocean Star Recent Point Beach grad Kyle Barnes [at bat] took part in the annual Shore Coaches Association Senior All-Star Game on Monday night at FirstEnergy Park in Lakewood.

PAGE 34 THE OCEAN STAR, FRIDAY, JUNE 25, 2010 Renae set to ‘wreak havoc’ on ice for Ocean County College next year By Adam Hochron It was just a few short months ago that Point Boro senior Todd Renae wrapped up his high school ice hockey career with the Panthers, with the captain’s ‘C’ affixed to his jersey. In April, Renae, 17, got the chance to show why he was not only one of the top players on the Panthers, but also in the Shore Conference, as he earned a trip to the Americas Hockey Showcase in Pittsburgh. Representing New Jersey on one of two squads of Garden State players to make the trip to western Pennsylvania, Renae said the process started early last month, with a tryout in Red Bank. Skating alongside nearly 50 other players, Renae was among a handful to be selected to advance to the next round of cuts in Wayne before earning a spot on the team as a defenseman. Though he said his natural position on the ice is on the front lines, Renae proved himself to be a force to be reckoned with, while keeping opposing offenses out of his team’s zone. Getting the chance to do that not just for his club, or his team, but for his state was something Renae said he definitely enjoyed. SUEANNE GOSS, The Ocean Star Point Boro senior Todd Renae [left] went to a showcase for high school juniors and seniors in Pittsburgh in April, and is now looking to continue his hockey career at the club and juniors levels. “I really didn’t think I was going to get past Red Bank,” he said. “I was getting burned a lot, but I just kept my head up and kept going.” While the team known as New Jersey Red had what Renae called a “stacked” roster, and went on to win the whole tournament, Renae said it was an honor to have been on the white team, even if his squad did not bring home a medal. “I was just happy I made some sort of team and we were NEW Laser Treatment for Fungus Toenails New painless K-Laser treatment for fungus toenails with Keryflex resin restoration of damaged discolored nails.

Not far from the home of the Pittsburgh Penguins, the tournament was held at Robert Morris University, where fans, coaches, players and scouts got to see what big-time hockey is all about. “There were a lot of people there,” he said. By the time the tournament was done, Renae said he had offers from several junior league teams, not only from around the country, but in Canada as well, all hoping to sign him to continue his hockey career with their teams. “You get noticed, even if you are on a lower-seeded team,” he said. And while the idea of playing professionally or at a higher level is something that appeals to him, Renae said he will stick with the same local clubs he has been playing with over the past few years, while continuing his education at Ocean County College. If things go well at OCC, Renae said he would like the chance to go to Montclair State, where his older brother, Kenny, 20, is a member of that school’s hockey team. “I still have got a lot of time left to play either juniors or anything, just to keep excelling my game to the highest I can get it,” he said. “I’m going to try to go there and wreak havoc.” As for whether a professional hockey career is in his plans, Renae said, at this point, he is not ruling anything out. “It’s a long shot, but sometimes it’s not a long shot,” he said. “You’ve just got to play it by ear and wait for doors to open up. When you get an opportunity, you’ve got to take them.” Going from the Shore Conference to the showcase in Pittsburgh, according to Renae, showed just how different the same game can be depending on the level. “You can’t think about reacting and then maybe doing it,” he said. “If you think, you have to do it, or else you can either get hurt or you can give yourself a really good scoring chance.” And after four years of playing in the Shore Conference, Renae said there was a comfort level, where he knew what to expect from different teams. With all new opponents coming at him, the senior said that helped take his game up another level. “Playing for Team New Jersey, it was a guessing game,” he said. “That’s why you’ve just got to go out there and give it 100 percent.” More than that, Renae said he was glad to see how well he adjusted to playing defense after spending much of his career attacking other defenses. “The one thing I learned about myself is that even though I am a natural forward and I always play forward, you can play both positions very well,” he said. “It’s just good to be a balanced hockey player.” With graduation just around the corner, Renae said he will miss all the time he spent sharing the ice with the other members of the Panther program, including the coaches. “It was just so much fun,” he said. “It was so laid-back, and the coaches did a good job of making everything easy.” Renae credited coach Mike Ryan with helping him improve his game and being a sounding board for any ideas he had about ways he or the team could improve. Now, Renae knows he will have to take all his lessons on the ice and use them to carry him as far as he can go. Wejnert ready to leave the Gulls’ Nest By Adam Hochron Point Beach senior Jordan Wejnert only played one year with the Garnet Gulls basketball team, but in that one winter, his thunderous dunks and his passion for the sport were clear to anyone who watched him on the court. For Wejnert, 18, the passion the Beach fans showed for the team only fueled his desire to succeed on the court, including the newly-founded Gulls Nest student cheering section. “They helped us win so many games, and just the whole atmosphere — we had the whole town behind us,” he said recently. Rather than jumping straight into the college game and the academic world that comes with it, Wejnert has decided to do a year at a preparatory school. He selected Worcester Academy in Massachusetts to continue his academic and athletic endeavors in the fall. After talking to college coaches and looking at a variety of colleges and prep schools, Wejnert said he decided it would be good for him to take the extra year with the hopes of landing at a Division I school in the fall of 2011. “After coming to Point Beach, I had a lot of schools talking to me as prep school became a realistic option,” he said. “[Worcester] coach [Edward] Reilly seemed to be the most interested in me. He pushed for me the most, and I felt the most comfortable at Worcester.” Already, Wejnert said he is considering schools like the University of Massachusetts Lowell, in Lowell, Mass., Yale University in New Haven, Conn., and other big schools from around the region, and hopes that field of teams will grow as he hones his game with the Hilltoppers. As he prepares to relocate to New England, Wejnert said the academics will be just as important as the athletic aspects of the school, all of which will help him in the future. Wejnert also knows that, while basketball will help him in college, his life afterward will likely not revolve around the sports. “I think, realistically, I don’t want to play basketball after college,” he said. “If some big Euro League team comes talking to me my senior year in college, it’s a different story. But academics are a big part of where I want to go to college.” When it comes to his time on the court, Wejnert said he knows there are areas of his game that he will be able to work on and improve before going to the next level. “There’s parts of everybody’s game that everybody has to work on,” he said. “For me, the biggest thing is, defensively, SUEANNE GOSS, The Ocean Star Point Beach senior Jordan Wejnert had plenty of reasons to smile during his time with the Gulls — and he gave fans plenty of reasons to smile, as well. everybody needs work. It’s hard to find somebody that’s a perfect defender.” Having spent much of the year as a force on the inside, on offense, Wejnert said he also hopes to build up his jump shot to make him more of an outside threat, as well. Having transferred from schools in North Jersey to the Beach, Wejnert said he knows what is involved in going to a new team, though he knows the move up north will present its own unique challenges and opportunities. “At this point, I’m used to meeting new kids and going to new schools,” he said. “It’s not anything I’m afraid of.” The senior said he is also looking forward to striking out on his own while still having a team to fall back on. “It will definitely be good for me, because I’ll be used to living away from home and taking care of myself,” he said. While going from the Jersey Shore to far colder climates will take some getting used to, Wejnert said he knows why he is going there, and will be keeping his eye on the prize. “You’ve gotta do what you’ve gotta do,” he said. “If it was in Antarctica and it could get me a scholarship, I’d do it.” And if he has questions about where he wants to go academically and athletically, Wejnert knows he has to look no farther than his own house for advice. Older sister Tayler, 21, is a junior on the Colgate University women’s basketball team in Hamilton, N.Y., while their parents, Karyn and Rich, played tennis and basketball, respectively, at the college level. Ironically for Wejnert, he said when he first got to high school, he was considering walking away from basketball altogether. “Four years ago, I was thinking about quitting basketball for soccer, because I was only 6-2,” he said. “But then I grew sophomore year, and I was 6-5, 6-6, so I had to weigh my options,” he continued. “I was definitely light years better at basketball than I ever was at soccer, so it came down to what I was going to get a scholarship for.” As his hunt for that scholarship continues, Wejnert said he will take the lessons he learned from the Beach to wherever he lands after Worcester. “I learned that where you play has a lot of impact on what kind of looks you’re getting,” he said. “You have to be at the right place at the right time, and in the right school. This was the best decision I made as far as my recruiting.” PAGE 35 THE OCEAN STAR, FRIDAY, JUNE 25, 2010 Merchants sweep Pirates in annual doubleheader By Adam Hochron For the Point Merchants and their cross-town rival Point Pirates, the two Jersey Shore Baseball League squads spent part of their Father’s Day at the Point Boro baseball field on Sunday for the teams’ annual doubleheader. The first game ended with the more experienced Merchants POINT eking out a MERCHANT 1-0 win WRAP over the Pirates. The second game was not nearly as close, as the red white and blue Merchants beat the black and gold Pirates 10-2. With Mark McGowan back on the hill for the Pirates after pitching on Thursday night [see related story], the two teams battled through six scoreless innings in the first game. Even in the third inning, when John Coppinger walked with one out and made it all the way to third thanks to solid base running, before being stopped there. For the Pirates, their best scoring chance came in the third inning, when John Rose made it as far as second with nobody out, but was unable to come in to score. In the seventh inning, Mark Dillon started the offense off with a single, followed by a walk by Trevor DeFillipo — but, even with two runners in scoring position, they were unable to get the run they would have needed to win. In the end, the game came down to the ninth inning and Jordan Marsch’s single. The former Rowan University player worked his way around the bases thanks to an error, a fielder’s choice and a single by Joe Henderson to bring the game to an end. As well as things went for the Pirates in the first game, the second game could not have gone much worse, as the Merchant offense exploded early and often to get the win. From the time Kyle Perry got the first hit as the leadoff man for the Merchants, the offense clicked and never looked back. Perry went to second on a fielder’s choice, reached third on an error off the bat of Tyler Koenig, then came home on a single by Marsch. The Merchants also got a base hit from Andy Pagano, as they built themselves an early 20 lead. Having sent eight men to the plate in the first inning alone, the Merchants got right back on track in the second inning, starting with a walk by John Coppinger. After stealing second and going to third on a double steal with Perry, the Merchants quickly loaded the bases. The team then blew the game open when Koenig got another big single, followed by a basesclearing triple by Henderson. Perry ended up scoring two more runs over the course of the game, with Marsch adding the final touches in the seventh inning to close out the win. Merchant coach Art Rooney said, while his team came away with wins in both games, the Pirates gave them a run for their money in the first contest. “They played a good game,” he said. “They hustled, and they made a couple of nice plays. “We’ve had some tight games, and we’ve had some games where we really kind of blew teams away,” he added. Some of his players are still getting used to playing in the JSBL, Coach Rooney pointed out. On top of that, he is working this season with a bigger roster than usual, which is slowing the process of the team coming together. “I’m playing a lot of guys, so it’s very hard to get cohesiveness,” he said. The Merchants are scheduled to return to action on Sunday for another doubleheader with East Coast Connection. They will be back on the field July 1 for a game against the Wall Angels. JOSEPH J. DELCONZO, The Ocean Star Point Merchant pitcher Pat Ford was one of the hurlers used by the team to complete a sweep of the Point Pirates on Sunday afternoon. Point Merchants’ Gourley grounds Barnegat Blue Jays By Adam Hochron The roster for the 2010 Point Pleasant Merchants has a decide d l y JSBL younger Merchants 5 feel than it has in preBlue Jays 0 vious REGULAR SEASON years, but o n Tuesday night the squad showed that it can use the veterans and the newcomers to succeed as the Jersey Shore Baseball League rolls along. Welcoming the Barnegat Blue Jays to town, the Merchants started hitting right away, while Point Beach grad Craig Gourley had another impressive start in his first year on the team. In the first inning alone, Gourley retired the side in order and did not let the Jays so much as get the ball out of the infield. After striking out the lead-off hitter, Gourley made an impressive stab at a shot back up the middle. He sent the Barnegat squad back to the dugout after that as the third man up grounded out to third. Gourley is one of a number of players making their JSBL debuts with the Merchants, but other players like long time veteran Dave Drew are continuing to make their presence felt for the team. With Coach Art Howell Spartans conquer Point Pirates on the road By Adam Hochron The Point Pleasant Pirates made one of their few road trips of the year last Thursday when they traveled to Oak Glen Park in Howell to take on JSBL t h e Pirates 0 Howell Spartans 10 Spartans. In their NON-DIVISION final tuneup before facing the crosstown rival Point Pleasant Merchants on Sunday [see related story], the Pirates got a firsthand view of why the Spartans are routinely among the top teams in the National Division, as they suffered a 10-0 loss. With Mark McGowan on the hill for the Pirates in the Thursday night game, the home team was largely held in check for the first three innings, as the Spartans scored just one run, on a single, a stolen base and an error. The Pirates nearly had the lead right out of the box. In the top of the first inning, Andrew Zanowic singled and went to second on a single by John Rose. The two former Panthers then advanced one base, each, on a wild pitch, but were unable to come around to score. When the home half of the fourth inning rolled around, the wheels started to come off the track for the Pirates. The Spartans added to their lead with a double, two straight errors, a single and a sac fly, to make it a 5-0 game. The Point team’s defense was able to stop the bleeding for a little while in the fifth inning, before the Spartans put the game away in the bottom of the sixth. With a combination of singles and walks, the home team added five more runs to its tally, to give the Spartans what they needed to bring the game to an early end. Coach Doug Campbell said his team may have gotten down early, but he was glad to see that they did not completely fold at the end. “They showed a lot of heart,” he said. “I said we can either give up or we can keep working hard.” Campbell said he was glad to see his team show the maturity he has come to expect from them as they were able to hold the Spartans in check for the latter stages of the game. “Pete was pitching well, they were just hitting good pitches,” he said. The biggest difference in the team from previous years, according to the coach, is that even when they are not playing a game, the Pirates are still out on the field working to get better. “They take the bats, they take the balls and they’re working,” he said. The Pirates had a week off following their double dip with the Merchants on Sunday. Their next contest is scheduled for this coming Sunday, when they will, once again, be on the road for a game against the Colts Neck Braves, at Laird Road Park. After that, the locals will be back on their home field on Wednesday, when they will take on the LA Dodgers, who will make the trip up from Lacey to face the Pirates. Rooney penciling him in at the top of the order, Drew started the game with a bang on a shot to left field. With the rest of the Merchants willing the ball over the fence, Drew was forced to settle for a long double as the ball bounced just off the wall. He was brought in, two batters later, when Joe Henderson hit a rocket down the right field line to give his team the early lead. Veterans and rookies alike took part in the biggest offensive inning, as well, with the Point team tacking on three runs in the bottom of the fourth inning. Joe Arminio drew a walk, before Jordan Marsch singled to center to give his team two on and nobody out. Mitch Johnson drove in one run on a sac bunt and Lance Koenig boosted the team even more with a two RBI single to center to wrap up the offensive. The final run of the game for the Merchants came in the fifth inning when John Coppinger doubled to left before being brought home on a deep sac fly by Arminio. As for Gourley, over seven innings of work, the former Ocean County College player gave up just three hits while striking out nine Blue Jays. Gourley said his first experiences in the JSBL have been positive. “For the most part it’s the same level, maybe a little better and a little harder,” he said in comparison to his time at OCC. As he continues his search for his next school, the former Garnet Gull said he is glad to have the chance to pitch on a regular basis. “It’s huge just to stay sharp and be ready to roll when I get to next year wherever I find myself playing,” he said. This is the third time this month that the Merchants have beaten the Blue Jays and Coach Art Rooney said he was sure to remind his team of their successes early on. “I think it was about the third inning that I said you guys better turn it up a notch,” he said. “That’s when we started to put some things together, hit the ball and started to make some things happen.” 99 Taylor Ave. (Rt. 71) Manasquan 732-223-2669 OR VISIT www.AsahiNJ.com $5 OFF Purchase of $30 or More Expires 6/30/10.

Outside of Drew’s love of teaching, Caruso said, “That [coaching] is his life. That’s all he thinks about and all he cares about,” he said. A longtime friend of the head coach, Caruso said, “Any spare time he has is about that team.” In addition to prepping for next season, Coach Drew is spending another summer suiting up for the Point Pleasant Merchants of the Jersey Shore Baseball League. Having played for the Merchants since he was 14, one of the people who knows Drew best is his longtime Merchants Coach Art Rooney. When asked about Drew’s success with the Lady Panthers, the veteran coach said it was not surprising in the least. Rooney said what makes the younger coach special is his “work ethic and communication with people.” Seeing Drew help more with the coaching of the Merchants, in addition to his work at the Boro, Rooney added, “He has the ability to talk to a kid when he’s not doing the right thing, and get in his face, and then he has the ability to turn it around and make the kid feel good about himself. “That’s a big big part of coaching that a lot of guys can’t do, and he does it extremely well,” Rooney added. When practice gets under way at the end of November, players like Jess Macchi, Kelly Hughes, Lauren Hughes and Kerry Malleck — who made an impact in their first year with the team — will be part of a large contingent of returning players. While they are losing just one starter, the coach said that one player made a definite impact on the team. “We lose a very, very tough player in Nicole Casey,” he said. “She’s not going to be easily replaced, but we are definitely excited about the people that we have returning.” Making the move from B South to the newly formed C Central, Coach Drew said his team has more they want to accomplish when they get back into action next winter. “We definitely still have goals that we did not obtain,” he said. “We were South Jersey group champions, but we would also like to be the overall group champions.” In addition to the state tournament, the coach said the Lady Panthers will also be looking for better showings in the WOBM and Shore Conference tournaments, as they establish themselves further. “We have a lot more to go, and those are things we will be looking to do next year,” he said. In an effort to make a name for themselves in the conference and the state as a whole, Coach Drew said he expects his team to see a more challenging schedule next year — and to rise to the occasion. “It definitely puts a bull’s-eye on our back, and we’ll be looking to face some tougher teams next year,” he said. “We’re going to make sure we play those tougher teams early on, so that when we get to those tougher games later on, we’ll be battletested.” No matter what the Lady Panthers’ record is at the end of the season, Coach Drew said he is just glad to be a part of a team that has such strong camaraderie. “They’re great kids — they’re smart kids — and I just can’t wait to be out there and help them achieve what they want to,” he said. “There’s a lot of pride going on in that program.” See HONORED, page 38 1671 BEAVER DAM ROAD, PT.

SPEC Coach Drew said, when he was offered the head coaching job for the girls team prior to the 2008-2009 season, it was not an opportunity he could pass up. Prior to that, he had only served as an assistant coach, first with the Manasquan baseball team and then with the Boro’s squad. “I said I wanted to be a head coach. I want to run a program, and I want to start something that is special and has my name on it,” he said. Unlike this year, Coach Drew’s first season featured a senior-heavy roster that had seen a considerable amount of turnover during its time. Through all the tumult, the Lady Panthers still had a respectable year. “We had a successful season,” he said. “We were 15-9, and I’ll never forget any one of those girls.

Keeping that in the back of his mind, the coach said he is looking forward to starting a tradition in the program. “I wanted to make sure that the girls knew I wasn’t just walking away,” he said. “I wasn’t just going to be a guy who was here for one year or two years and then was out. I definitely wanted to sell the program, and those first-year girls really helped me start the year on the right foot.” This year’s Lady Panther roster featured just one returning starter in junior Kelsey Haycook, with limitless potential in the rest of the roster. Since that potential had not yet been realized, Coach Drew said he was “definitely anxious,” going into the start of the year. “We knew there was some very serious talent at that level,” he said, of the incoming freshmen. “We just didn’t know how far that was going to take us ,or when it was going to catch up to us that a senior-laden team or an upperclassmen team was going to show us that we were just real young.” Looking back on the year as a whole, Coach Drew said, “Thankfully, that never came.” In a regular season that featured impressive wins over divisional rivals like Manchester, Coach Drew said it was the state tournament that really put the exclamation point on the season. “Just the whole run, the whole getting there, was so much fun,” he said. “Even when we were looking at our seeds, and knowing we had a really good shot of being the number-one seed and hosting the tournament, all throughout, and playing all the games at home, we were very into it.” One of Coach Drew’s assistants, Josh Caruso, said it was #1 Contractor at the Jersey Shore!

PAGE 37 THE OCEAN STAR, FRIDAY, JUNE 25, 2010 Onto ready to master track in final season Photo Courtesy of UMBC ATHLETICS Point Boro grad Keith Onto has been a star for the University of Maryland, Baltimore County team during his two years competing at the school. Onto will spend one more season with the Retrievers while working toward his MBA. he said, helped balance the experience he already had in the 110 hurdles, the 400-meter dash and the high jump from his time in high school. Onto made a splash at his new school, not only in spring track, but also in the winter. His efforts were not lost on the Retriever coaching staff, including assistant Andrew Torge, who focuses on the multi-discipline athletes like Onto. “Keith performed at a consistently high level throughout the course of the year, announcing himself as one of the elite multieventers in the Northeast,” Torge said. “By staying healthy and maintaining his rigorous training, Keith was able to finally realize some of his potential, garnering many accolades during the indoor and outdoor season.” Coach Torge also said, if things go well, Onto could reach new heights for the Retrievers. “It is very reasonable to say that, with his continued progression, Keith has the opportu- nity to do what few have done at UMBC — become an NCAA All-American,” the coach said. As for what sets Onto apart from his competition, the coach said, “He has a passion for the sport that transcends that of a normal track and field athlete. “He is well-versed in the history of the decathlon, and realizes that to be successful in the rigorous 10-0event competition, he has to approach the event as a lifestyle,” Torge said. Competing so often and at such a high level is part of the reason why one of his first activities of the summer was having a torn meniscus repaired before heading back to school. The former Panther star said the number of decathlons in which an athlete should compete is capped at about three for any given year. He added that the wear and tear he puts his body through made the operation necessary, but it should also help him get ready to go even further during his post-grad year. The health of his knees could also go a long way in helping Onto after his time at college is done as he will finish up just ahead of the 2012 Olympic Trials at the University of Oregon. “Even though I know my chances of qualifying are so slim, just the chance to compete against those guys would be something I don’t want to pass up,” he said. Onto came back to Point Boro for a little while after graduation to spend some time in his hometown. But he was not around long, as he headed back down South to resume training for his last year with the Retrievers. “It all comes down to if I train hard enough this summer,” he said. “If I can make the pole vault one of my stronger events, all the tools are there.” In the four years he has spent away from the Boro, Onto said one aspect of his competitive abilities in particular has improved, going from the Panthers to the Retrievers. “I think I’m more disciplined,” he said. “Most of decathlon is mental. You’ve got to know it’s one event at a time, and if you have a bad event, you have to not get down on yourself and clear your mind before the next event.” With the mental and the physical aspects of the sport coming together, Onto said he felt confident he would do well this year. “I knew I had a lot of untapped potential in high school,” he said. “I knew, with more specialized training, I could eventually do really well.” And while he is glad to be among the elite class of decathletes now, Onto said, going into college, he had not envisioned competing in such a strenuous event, and had started in the multi-event disciplines in the AQUASERVE Bradshaw Beach & Pool Club Combo ON SALE NOW! $ 50.00 OFF per person Bradshaw Beach Club, Maryland Beach Club, Johnson Brothers Pool Club and Poolside Cafe CALL AQUASERVE LIFEGUARDS 732-295-2091 Sale only valid for pool & Bradshaw beach combo.

With his talent, size and athletic ability, Malleck said the schools that are looking at him are mostly thinking of moving him to tight end, with some also wanting him to play defense as well. “I don’t mind that,” he said, of playing on the other side of the ball. Much like football, the Boro basketball team also figures to have a large contingent of players coming back in the winter, giving Malleck hope that he can end his time with the Panthers on a very good note. “At our summer league now, we’re doing good, so I feel like we should make it back to the state championship and win it,” he boldly predicted. This past season, a group of four new starters joined senior Wil Hawthorne on the court, and the Boro surprised many outsiders with their performance. Not only did the Panthers finish third in the WOBM Christmas Classic at the beginning of the year, but the Panthers also clinched a share of the B South title before ending their season with a loss to Kingsway Regional in the South Jersey Group III Finals. Whatever happens during the football or basketball season, Malleck said his goal is to commit himself to the college of his choice before his senior year kicks off in the fall. That being said, the options he is considering are greater than what he had expected when he first came to the school three years ago. “I’ve never went through this in my life, and I was so shocked. I didn’t think I’d be playing Division I football,” he said. Having gone on a few college visits already, Malleck said he knows what he is looking for as he weighs all his attractive options. “The first thing I look at in a school is academically, because football is only four years, and not many people get the chance to play in the NFL,” he said. “I look for academics, and I look for the coaching staff.” At the big-name programs, finding a quality coaching staff and a strong academic program are not difficult tasks — which, Malleck said, is making his decision that much tougher. Wherever he ends up, Malleck said he will use the time between now and the end of his freshman year to decide on a major and possible career. Either way, the rising senior said knowing he will be going to college for school and the sport he loves is something he is very much looking forward to. “I’ve always wanted to play in college, but I never thought I’d be playing Division I,” he reiterated. He may not have been expecting to get looks from See MALLECK, page 38 • P L A N TAT I O N S H U T T E R S • BLINDS • SHADES •DRAPERIES Competitive Prices ~ Superior Service Convenient In-Home Presentations Interior Design Concepts 732-892-1315 1800 BAY AVE. • POINT PLEASANT NJ 08742 EST. 1984 OAKTREE SHEDS & GAZEBOS — FA M I LY OW N E D A N D O P E R AT E D S I N C E 1 9 8 5 — 12' x 14' Pavilion 4 - 10" tapered columns MAINTENANCE FREE www.oaktreesheds.com SUEANNE GOSS, The Ocean Star Heading into his senior year at Point Boro Ryan Malleck is receiving offers to continue his football career at Division I schools as a tight end or defensive back. * Jewelry Brick, NJ Point Boro’s Ryan Malleck has sights set high By Adam Hochron As his summer officially gets under way, rising Point Boro senior Ryan Malleck has seen the volume of mail arriving at his house each day increase, as his amount of school work has decreased. At 16, they are not bills that are rolling into the 6-foot-5 230-pounder’s mailbox, but offers from schools all wanting him to suit up for their football teams. The address list of the schools contacting Malleck reads like a who’s-who of major college football. From as near as the University of Maryland to as far south as the University of Central Florida, Malleck has already started to receive offers that will undoubtedly change the course of his academic and athletic careers. With each day that goes by, more and more schools express interest in the otherwise quiet Malleck — who, in three years, has proven to be a talented athlete on the gridiron, the basketball court and even the baseball diamond. But out of all the sports he has played as a Point Boro Panther, Malleck said his favorite is, and always has been, football. “Football is my sport,” he said. “I enjoy playing basketball, but there’s nothing better than playing on a Friday night under the lights.” After a season where the Point Boro roster was dominated by new players trying to find their way on the varsity level, Malleck said he feels confident that when they take the field for the first time in 2010, the Panthers will be ready to take on the world. “Our quarterback has experience now, so I think we’ll be passing a lot more, like my sophomore year with Shane O’Connor,” he said. * Passports $7,650.00 installed on your foundation 249 $ with ad 20x24 Two Car Garage Poly Adirondack Chairs $9,995.00 Eco-Friendly, Maintenance Free, Recycled Plastic Bar Shed with 8” columns 12 ft.

(NORTH BOUND SIDE - IMMEDIATELY AFTER PARK AND RIDE) www.oaktreesheds.com By Adam Hochron It has been quite a journey for Point Boro grad Keith Onto in the four years since he graduated as a member of the Panther Class of 2006. After originally starting his career at St. Francis College in Pennsylvania, Onto seems to have found a home at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County, where he has been enrolled for the past few years. After finishing his undergrad degree in financial economics this past spring, Onto will use his final year of athletic eligibility to continue to improve on the track while working toward his MBA. Onto said he has enjoyed going to school in the shadows of Baltimore and raising the performance bar for the decathlon. By the time the year was done, he placed among the top 30 in the event in the country. After arriving at UMBC as a sophomore, Onto said he took a red shirt last year in an effort to improve at the various events that are part of the decathlon. Judging by the way the season progressed, he believes he was rewarded for that extra work. “There’s so many ones I hadn’t done, so I took a year to focus on my weak areas, and I think that’s the reason I was so successful,” he said. “I didn’t have a weak event anymore.” Onto said the event he focused on the most was pole vault. After not competing in the event at the Boro, the former Panther said it was something he knew he had to improve on if he was going to have a chance in some of the bigger meets. “It’s such a technical event that it takes a lot of time to get good at it,” he said. In addition to the pole vault, Onto said he also worked to improve his distance in the discus. Focusing on those two events, PAGE 38 THE OCEAN STAR, FRIDAY, JUNE 25, 2010 FISHING TIPS A lot happened last week right after my weekly column was submitted, as some very big striped bass reappeared along our beaches. Tuesday night, June 15, was probably one of the best big bass nights of the season, as plenty of 30 to 40-pound bass were caught from Spring Lake up to Asbury Park. The largest bass caught tipped the scales, at over 50 pounds. This big bass was caught by Capt. Tom Savastano on board his Fin-ess. and weighed 58. 2 pounds on the Reel Life Bait and Tackle shop scale in Point Pleasant. Each night after the 15th also had great action in the same area. Beach guys also had good action. As of now, the bunker has reschooled, since there has been a decline in the number of bunker boats, and the big bass have been right there with them as a result. This is the type of fishing we are accustomed to in June, with just about every day presenting itself with opportunities to catch a trophy fish. If we are going to see a 60 caught, now is definitely the time. Bluefishing remains very good for the party boats 14 to 17 miles out. The blues are responding to both bait and jigs. There has been, however, a lack of bluefish close to shore. With the reports of anchovies and sand eels offshore, you can expect the bluefish to stay right where they are. These two baits are also excellent baits for attracting and holding bluefin tuna in the same area. Some of the first Jersey-arriving bluefin were caught Monday, June 14, by Hunter Gutwein, of Shore Catch Guide Service, in this same area. There are a lot of fluke to be caught in the ocean from 30 to 45 feet of water, but very few keepers are mixed in. One of the best areas in the past week has been out from the Red Church. Dave Arbeitman, of the Reel Seat in Brielle reported: “In spite of the six to eight bunker bait boats, netting thousands and thousands of bunker, striped bass fishing remains good for the boaters and the beach fishermen. “While most of the bass are caught on either live bunker or bunker heads, many are being caught on artificals. Beach and jetty anglers are landing bass on pencil poppers, polaris-style poppers, and metal-lipped swimmers. Boat anglers are scoring with bunker spoons, mojo shad, deep-diving plugs, and pencil poppers. “Ron Mazzarella fished with By Jim Freda Bob Lake on Bob’s Kimberly Ann and battled an estimated 300pound thresher shark on a wire line outfit. The thresher hit a bunker spoon, and Ron fought the shark, bringing it to the boat in 55 minutes. “Bob also caught, weighed, and released a 37-pound striped bass. “Dave Schunke, from Insuffient Funds, checked in and told us about the great day of mako fishing he and his crew had during the Brett Bailey Mako Rodeo. “They had constant action all day and topped things off with a 383-pound tournament winning mako. “There were yellowfin tuna up to 50 pounds trolled in Toms Canyon over the weekend, along with some mahi. There were bluefin tuna caught in the Chicken Canyon, both trolling and on tuna poppers. “Fluke fishing has been up and down, most likely due to constant changes in water temperatures. “There are some quality fish being caught. “John Vafiadis caught a 7pound fluke on a 1.5-ounce Old Man’s Tackle Box bucktail, tipped with a Gulp 4-inch Swimming Mullet.” Greg over at Brielle Bait and Tackle reported: “Mickey Alpert, of Brick, is still wailing on the big stripers. He’s caught a bunch this year. “On Saturday, he weighed in a huge 40-pound striped bass. It ate a live bunker off Sea Girt. “There’s been a bunch of bunker early in the morning, from Bay Head south to Lavallette, with some big stripers mixed in. “In the surf, Manasquan and Sea Girt have been hot lately. “Lee Karosen fished near his home on the Manasquan Beach, and he caught three stripers up to 20 pounds on clams. He kept one and released the others. “There are also a lot of fluke in the Manasquan surf hitting clams. Fluking in the Manasquan River remains good with light tackle bucktails, Gulp, killies and spearing. “Some 2- to 4-pound fish have been weighed in. “On the freshwater scene, Mac’s Pond in Manasquan held a little Cub Scout tournament this weekend, and anglers caught catfish and bass on worms and shiners. “Manasquan Reservoir is also red-hot in the evenings for largemouth bass. Topwater lures, rubber worms and shiners are working best.” Wayne Smith over at Hoffman’s Marina in Brielle reported: “Striper fishing is still holding strong as a morning and late bite is the ticket. “This past week, a lot of the action was right out of the Manasquan Inlet and off of Asbury. Most consistent action seems to be during the week, when there is less boat traffic. “On Tuesday evening, right outside the inlet, the bass were solid. “Big Boy, out of Hoffman’s, limited out, with bass up to 40.6 pounds, with owner Rich Kline and friends, mate Max and Capt. Darren. “Then, on Friday, Big Boy came in with a 175-pound thresher shark they snagged with a bunker spoon. “This Saturday was the Bret Baily Mako Tournament. Capt. Darren Volker of the Mary Lou crew thought he had it with a 240-pound mako. Then, a 383pound mako hit the scales, caught by Insufficient Funds. “Capt. Darren still had a banner day, as he caught six makos, released five, and kept the 240pounder. “Capt. Joe McDonald had four makos with the last one he released at 150 pounds. Looks like next weekend’s mako tournament will be a winner. “Clark’s Landing Marina on the Manasquan River in Point Pleasant will host the three-day 25th Annual Greater Point Pleasant Charter Boat Association Mako-Mania Shark Tournament, this Friday through Sunday. “For additional tournament information, call the MakoMania Hotline at 732-892-3666 or visit www.gppcba.com. Tip of the week: When pencil-popping big bass from your boat, don’t be afraid to use a 9foot surf rod, as it will give the proper action to work the plug and the added casting distance you may need to reach the fish so you don’t put them down with your boat.

In Malleck’s case, the coach said “He’s one of the few kids that you’ll see has the complete package as far as coming out of a small Group II school,” he said.

Now, I’ve got the key to the gym, and my players probably wish I didn’t.” One of the cornerstones of Catania’s tenure at the Beach has been a commitment to the basics and hard work, which he said he has enjoyed instilling in his players over the past few years. “I knew there was a lot of work to be done,” he said. “I knew one thing was, we were going to have to just bring the pride back to the program.” With a coaching staff full of Point Beach grads, Catania said the team went from winning two games his first year to 13 his second, and qualifying for the state tournament for the first time in several years. The Garnet Gulls went several steps further than that this year ,as they not only easily qualified for the Shore Conference and state tournaments, but they also won their first outright division title since 1968. As the team improved, the coach said he could see momentum starting to swing in their favor throughout the community, as the stands started to fill up with more fans looking to see what the hometown team would do next. That trend reached a fever pitch this year, as the gym at Point Beach was routinely at full capacity on any given game night. PRAYER TO THE HOLY SPIRIT Holy Spirit, you who slove all problems, light all roads so that I can achieve my goal. You who give me a divine gift to forgive and forget all evil against me and that in all my life are with me. I want this short prayer to thank you for all things you confirm once again that I never want to be separated from you, even in spite of all material illusions. I wish to be with you in eternal joy and thank you for your mercy towards me and mine. The person must say this prayer for 3 consecutive days. After 3 days the favor requested will be granted even if it seems difficult. The prayer must be published immediately after the favor is granted without mention of the favor, only your initials should appear at the bottom. GD defense “makes him more marketable.” While having his school picked out for the fall of 2011 will take some of the weight off his shoulders next school year, Malleck said his upcoming seniors sports seasons will present their own challenges that he is looking forward to tackling. “I think there’s pressure,” he said. “Especially not having a state championship ring.” Having come close in basketball this year and football the year before, Malleck said he is determined to end his career with one title, if not two. That desire is fueled further by the fact that his younger sister, Kerry, just wrapped up her freshman year with titles in basketball and soccer. “My sister has two, so I defi- nitely need one,” he said, with a smile. Ryan, Kerry, 15, and his older brother, Steve, 18, are the three children of Steven and Karen, and the middle child said all three are athletes, which makes for fun times at home. “Me and my brother play basketball outside, we throw the football around — we compete in everything we do,” he said. “Sometimes he’ll get me, and sometimes I’ll get him. But he’s the older brother, so he’s got to win.” Malleck said he will spend his summer looking at schools and balancing gearing up for the fall with relaxing before his last time around as a member of the Point Boro Panthers. By all indications, it should be a summer he will not soon forget. to watch as their coach Ellis was recognized by his coaching brethren as the B Central Coach of the Year. The coach said that the honor was not totally unexpected as “99 percent of the time it’s the coach who wins the division,” he said. “I wasn’t surprised, but I was proud when they made that the first thing they did and it was unanimous.” In a division of schools roughly the same size, and coaches who stay in one place for a long time, the coach said it was nice to be honored by a group of his peers. “We all rise up with a group of players then you fall down and you rebuild,” he said of the B Central competition. “Having all the students at the games, that was a huge advantage,” the coach said. “This was one of the toughest places to play in the Shore thanks to the Gulls’ Nest [cheering section], and that’s what it’s about,” Catania said. “When you build a good program, it’s good for the school.” The success enjoyed by the Gulls was not lost on the community, including school administrators like Point Pleasant Beach High School Principal Ray Ellis. “What I saw was a very hardworking group of players and coaches who have dedicated themselves to year-round basketball improvement,” he said. “Of course, there were some very talented players, and talented players always make for smart coaches,” Ellis added, with a laugh. As the coach of the Beach baseball team, Ellis said he sees similarities in the programs. “What was nice to see is the growth that they had made from the year before,” he said, of the boys basketball team. “The boys had a taste of what it is to be a winner, and what it is to be a championship-caliber team.” The principal, who has known Catania since his days as a student, said it was no surprise that Coach Catania has done so well. “He was one of those kids that lived and died basketball,” Ellis said. “Basketball was always his passion, and as a player, he worked harder than everybody.” Looking ahead to the 20102011 season, Coach Catania said, while his team is looking forward to defending their B Central title, there is still unfinished business that he would like to see them take care of on the court. “When I took the job, we had three goals: win the conference, with the Shore Conference Tournament, and win the state title,” he said. “So we’re still working on the other two.” Never one to look for attention for himself, Catania said he credits his family, in a lot of ways, for his success. When it comes to his work ethic, Catania said a lot of the credit goes to his parents, Donna and Angelo. “They taught me right from wrong, and how to treat people the right way,” the coach said. “I think that kind of helped our program.” The coach was also quick to give credit to his wife, Beth, who he said puts up with the long hours that he puts in to make the program successful. But it was probably one of the smallest members of the Gulls’ Nest that the coach said made the biggest impact on him this past season: his 13-month-old son, A.J. “I love bringing my son in the gym, and that he’s able to walk around,” the coach said recently. “It’s kind of cool to think that I played here ,and now I’ve got my little son running around the gym. And he enjoys coming to the gym and watching our guys play.” While the youngest Catania is still many years away from suiting up as a Garnet Gull, the coach said, for him, life is good in his favorite gym. “I think, for me, when you win at Point Beach, there’s no better place to win in the Shore Conference,” he said. With almost exactly five months until the official start of practice for the 2010-2011 season, Catania said he looks forward to seeing his team build on its success this year and soar into the future. — ONTO — From Page 37 heptathlon before making the jump to the next level. “It takes away from some events to do all 10,” he said. “I spend more time to sacrifice one event to focus on a weaker event and be more well-rounded.” Even though he is only a few hours from home, Onto said there are still parts of the Boro that he takes with him wherever he goes. “I miss being in Point Pleasant,” he said. “The whole small-town feel is no longer around.” Kenneth J.
