n May 17, a group of 50 stu-dents from Hopewell ValleyCentral High School joinedrepresentatives from the

MercerCounty ParkCommis-sion, conser-vation pro-fessionalsfrom variousnon-profitorganiza-tions, andlocal direc-tor JaredFletcher foran all-day ed-ucation and

service proj-ect at Baldpate Mountain and theHollystone Preserve.

In November 2012, the Park Com-mission and Friends of HopewellValley Open Space planted morethan 3,500 trees and shrubs at theHollystone Preserve, which waspart of a 40-acre reforestation proj-ect.

This spring, with funding from a

grant the Park Commission re-ceived from the Grainger Founda-tion, another 800 native plants provided by the Hopewell-basedplant nursery, Wild Ridge Plants will be planted at the HollystonePreserve to add to the reforestation

project.To help

advance thisproject, CHSseniorSamanthaMandyLee coordi-nated withJenniferRodgers, nat-uralist at theMercerCounty ParkCommis-

sion, and or-ganized a service project involvingstudents.

Mandy is taking a global publicservice class and was wondering ifshe could organize something forher school that had a conservationor stewardship theme, and it just sohappened that I received an extra

Students will add 800 morenative plants to the preserve

grant from the Grainger Founda-tion that would offer supplemen-tal planting, Rodgers said. Itwas almost a coincidence thatshe wanted to do a service projectwith high school students be-cause I had plans to plant anoth-er 600 to 700 plants in Hollystone

and needed someone to put themin.

So, I decided to marry those

needs and come up with a greatservice project.

Lee successfully arranged afull-day field trip that included aneducational session in the morn-ing at Baldpate Mountain, fol-lowed by the planting of variousnative trees, shrubs and flower-ing plants in the afternoon atHollystone Preserve.

The project was inspiredthrough my global public serviceclass, where students are encour-

aged to complete a final serviceproject for a cause of theirchoice, Lee said.

This past November, I foundout about the Park Commission'sreforestation project at Holly-stone Preserve in Titusville, andwanted to do something to help.

In the morning, students metwith Rodgers and another repre-sentative from the Park Commis-sion; Michael Van Clef, steward-ship director of Friends ofHopewell Valley Open Space; andJerry Rosenbaum, co-owner ofWild Ridge Plants.

Off-Broadstreet

Theatre presentsViolet SharpBY HEATHER FIOREThe Hopewell Sun

A controversial historicalstory that is near and dear toHopewells heart is taking thestage at the Off-Broadstreet The-

atre for a five-weekend run.After the infant son of the fa-

mous pilot Charles LuckyLindbergh and his wife, AnneMorrow Lindbergh, was kid-napped from his bed while sleep-ing in their Hopewell house, aransom was paid, but the babywas not returned.

Violet Sharp, which chroni-cles the infamous 1932 Lindbergh

kidnapping, tells the story of ayoung woman who worked as awaitress at the Morrow house.

The kidnapping spurred astatewide police investigation,with a lot of focus on the 30 or sopeople who were employed by the

family and working at the Lind-bergh house at the time of the in-cident, including Violet Sharp.

Sharp became a person of in-terest when her stories didnt addup and her alibi for that nightwas unclear.

She originally lied to the policeas to her whereabouts, but wasultimately cleared through the

Every four years, there is a big,

big election in New Jersey that

costs candidates lots and lots of

money. Gubernatorial candidates ad-

vertise hard and heavy throughout the

state, spending boatloads of cash in the

New York City and Philadelphia metro

markets.This years election for Garden State

governor is extra special because the

incumbent, Chris Christie, is thought

to be a leading candidate for the Re-

public nomination for president in

2016.

Before that is a possibility, though,

he will have to beat his Democratic op-

ponent in New Jersey this November.And, even before that, hell have to

defeat his Republican opposition for

the gubernatorial nomination, Seth

Grossman, an Atlantic County lawyer

and political veteran.

While the focus of this election has

already been on Christie and top Dem-ocratic candidate Barbara Buono, both

must make it through next Tuesdays

Primary Election before they can com-

pletely turn their focus to Novembers

General Election.

Buono, a state senator from Newark

who has been representing the 18th

Legislative District since 2002, will

square off against Troy Webster, an

aide to the mayor of East Orange.

If Buono and Christie succeed next

week, as many expect, theyll officially

turn their focus on each other, letting

the money, and muckraking, fly.

Both parties have already begun tel-

evision ad campaigns, and the number

of ads and ferocity of the content will

surely pick up as Novembers election

approaches.

Its an unfortunate reality of cur-

rent-day electioneering, especially in

this state.So expect your TV sets, your radios

and your newspapers to be filled with

political advertisements over the next

six months until an official governor is

named.

In the meantime, get out and vote in

the Primary Election next Tuesday,

June 4, if youre a registered Republi-

can or Democrat.In addition to the gubernatorial elec-

tion, there are also elections for the

General Assembly, state Senate and

local governing bodies. This is your

first chance to let your voice be heard.

Actress portraying Sharpreturns for her fifth show

verification of another individ-ual.

Violet got questioned and wasforced to lie about where she ac-tually was on that night becauseshe was at a speakeasy, whichwas illegal back then, said Tap-pany Hochman, the Hopewell na-

tive portraying Sharp. The po-lice started interrogating her andshe ending up telling the truth,but the police interrogated her

over and over again, about fourtimes, because she was a reallylarge suspect in the kidnapping.

Hochman, who is returning forher fifth show at OBT, was partic-ularly interested in playingSharp because of the historic as-pect.

It's very interesting, to me, be-cause I'm a little bit of a historybuff and this is a local story, shesaid.

I grew up in Hopewell and

grew up knowing the story verywell. I live not very far away fromthe house and where they foundthe baby so that kind of interest-

ed me as well.Although Hochman is no

stranger to the stage, shes usedto performing musical theater-based shows, so the seriousnessof her character is one of the twomajor challenges shes faced withplaying Sharp.

I'm used to playing big boardcharacters and Violet is a normaleveryday girl, which is a little dif-ficult to play when you're used tocreating a caricature-type of per-

son; playing someone who is verynormal is a very big challenge,she said.

Naturalist hopes to workwith students every year

ent professional, and participat-ed in interpretive nature hikes,while also learning more aboutstewardship, deer management,functions of the forest, birdingand plant IDs.

The students also had thechance to interact with Fletcher,director of the recent documen-tary, Sourlands, to discusswhat he learned while filming.

He discussed some things helearned and discovered before

filming that he's more consciousof now, and led a Q&A sessionwith the students, Rodgers said.

After the morning activities,students trekked across thestreet to the Hollystone Pre-

serve, where they planted vari-ous species of smaller trees,shrubs and plants that will sup-plement reforestation.

The whole idea was to get thekids out there to understand andappreciate the value of smallplants not just the greening,but helping restore the localecosystem and enhancing itdown the road, Rodgers said.

Because of the days success,Rodgers is hoping to make thisan annual event for either CHSglobal public service classes orAP environmental service class-es.

There are still some students

out there who care and who real-

ly want to do something,Rodgers said.

The most fabulous part ofthis entire idea is that it wasspurred by the interest of an 18year old; it wasn't me going tothe high school. When she camein, you could tell she was some-one who was motivated andwanted to organize something,and she was such a pleasure towork with. Its inspiring to us[adults], who are working nineto five jobs; it's a fantastic thing,but even more lovely gettingsomeone of a younger genera-tion saying they want to dosomething and then actually fol-

lowing through with it.

Violet Sharp will run until June 22

The other challenge, too, isthat we're all playing historicalcharacters every one of us is anactual person. So, to play an actualhistorical figure is bit of a chal-lenge because you want to get itright, but also make it your ownat the same time and create yourown character.

Artistic Director Robert Thickchose a very seasoned ensemblefor the cast of Violet Sharp.

People feel very strongly

about this case, and there is stillgreat controversy years after thetrial, so I needed actors thatcould face the challenge, he said.

The drama of this was ex-tremely intriguing, and I was in-terested in getting involved withsomething very dramatic andneedy, Hochman said.

Alongside Hochman isLawrenceville resident Barry

Abramowitz, playing the surlydetective Harry Walsh, who re-peatedly questions and intimi-dates Sharp.

Since the cast is relatively

small only six members Hochman and Abramowitz arethe only actors who play singularroles. The latter actors play mul-tiple roles, including CharlesLindberg, Anne Morrow Lind-bergh, Sgt. John McGrath (NewJersey state policeman), ErnieMiller, Septimus Banks, ColonelNorman Schwarzkopf, Sr. (com-mander of the New Jersey StatePolice), Adela, Edna (Sharpsyounger sister) and Laura Hugh-

es (secretary and a nurse).I've had to explore a lot of lev-els of my personal acting train-ing, but that's what we, as actors,want to do; we want to exploredifferent things, try new thingsand make new choices,Hochman said. It's been a chal-

lenge, but it definitely has beenone of the best experiences as anactor stepping out of my box. Iplay characters that I'm used toand I love it, but doing something

out of my personal box is greatfun and very interesting. You dis-cover a lot as an actor doingthat.
