    "Mr. LHS is like a spin-off of

    the Miss America pageant it'sall guys," said Carmen Edwards,director of this year's show andmember of the Project Gradua-tion Committee. "Each guy makestheir own little show, which istheir talent piece. Then, there's aquestion and answer section, andafter that, a tux walk, where theystrut their stuff and are escorted

    by two girls."LHS senior Bryan Wilson,

    who's portraying Mr. September,said the show is a great opportu-nity to help raise funds for ProjectGraduation.

    "Just being part of this experi-ence is amazing," he said.

    LHS senior Willy Donahue,who's representing Mr. Leap Year,

    is extra excited because he's thefirst special education student toparticipate in Mr. LHS.

    The show is completely stu-

    dent-run and all students are re-sponsible for their own props, cos-tumes and music, Edwards said.

    "The sole purpose of the threeparent directors is to guide themand make sure everything is ap-propriate," she said.

    Participants in Mr. LHS are se-lected through an applicationprocess, which is administered bythe PGC, an all-parent, volunteernon-profit organization that plansLHS' Project Graduation eachyear.

    "In the application process,each student is asked variousquestions," Edwards said. "Then,the committee reviews them all.We don't go by names; we go bynumbers so it's an anonymous,unbiased selection."

    One of the escorts, seniorKerry Critelli, explained how

    she's wanted to be part of Mr.LHS since she was a freshman.

    "Who doesn't love getting up onstage and acting as silly or spon-taneous as you want?" she said.

    "I wanted to be part of Mr. LHSbecause it's a great way to shareyour comical side with your fel-low seniors. I wanted to have theexperience of celebrating ourgreatest year of high school bybringing everyone together insupport of Project Graduation."

    Edwards believes the most im-

    portant part of Mr. LHS is watch-ing the students interact withother students they wouldn't oth-erwise talk to in school, which isthe reason why senior DeAnaSmith chose to be one of thisyear's escorts.

    "I wanted to hang around peo-ple I don't normally hang aroundwith," Smith said.

    "It's a lot of fun seeing every-thing come together, and I can'twait until the actual performance

    and to have this memory forever."Mr. LHS will be held at LHS onFriday, May 3 at 7 p.m. Tickets are$10 and can be purchased prior tothe show or at the door.

    Project Graduation will be heldon Tuesday, June 18.

    What can be said about the

    Boston Marathon tragedy

    that hasnt been said al-

    ready? Its another senseless act of

    anonymous violence.

    Add the Boston Marathon to the list:

    Newtown, Conn.; Columbine, Colo.; At-

    lanta, Ga.; Waco, Texas; Oklahoma

    City, Okla.; New York, N.Y.; and count-

    less others.

    The person who committed this act

    is a terrorist make no mistake about

    that. While suspects have not been

    named as of press time, the identity of

    the perpetrator is insignificant. He or

    she, or the group responsible, prayed

    on innocent lives in a vulnerable situa-

    tion.

    Three victims were killed, including

    an 8-year-old boy, and almost 200 others

    were wounded by two bombs that were

    placed in bags near the Marathons fin-

    ish line.The victims of the tragedy stretch

    far beyond the city of Boston, the state

    of Massachusetts, and the region of

    New England. Runners travel from

    near and far to participate in the

    worlds oldest annual marathon, which

    began in 1897, and family and friends

    travel with them to watch them finish.

    Our thoughts and prayers go out toeveryone involved.

    When will these acts of mass vio-

    lence end? Its scary to think the more

    appropriate word to use is if and not

    when.

    But we need to continue living our

    lives. We cant live in fear, as difficult

    as that may be. We cant stop attending

    our sons and daughters Little League

    games, our parents marathon runs,

    our favorite professional or college

    sports teams big games, our favorite

    bands concerts just because violence

    may happen where large groups of

    people congregate.

    It may happen thats an unfortu-

    nate reality of our lives. We can height-

    en and increase security (which we

    should do), but we ultimately cant pre-

    vent every act of terror.

    Thats a sad reality.

    What we can do is continue to live

    our lives like normal, remembering

    the victims and helping their families

    along the way. This is what the terror-

    ist doesnt want, and this what we

    should give him, her or them.

    in our opinion

    Another senseless act of violenceBoston Marathon tragedy reinforces the fact that were living in scary times

    Council: Changes made to sewer service areasBY HEATHER FIOREThe Lawrence Sun

    The Lawrence Township Council ap-proved a resolution that modifies and en-dorses a countywide plan to designatesewer service areas within the township.

    The state Department of EnvironmentalProtection established a statewide WaterQuality Management Plan, adopted to pro-tect water quality in the state. To accountfor wastewater, the DEP created Waste-

    water Management Plans.The purpose of the WMP is to project fu-

    ture development, estimate the wastewatermanagement needs associated with thatdevelopment and specify the preferredwastewater treatment alternative for all

    areas of the state, according to the DEPswebsite.

    Mercer County recently put together aWMP, which includes all 13 municipalitiesand outlines what areas of each townshipare going to be included.

    To move forward with the plan and en-sure its suitability for all townships, Mer-cer County sent a copy to each townshipfor comments and recommendations.

    In Lawrences case, there were variouschanges made to the existing sewer serviceareas, which were revised at a recent com-

    mittee meeting, following Planning Boardrecommendations.

    They included and excluded a selectionof properties throughout the township,which were either taken out or added whenthe county devised its current WMP, Town-

    ship Engineer Jim Parvesse said.The properties Parvesse suggested to

    add back into the WMP included all town-ship parks, specifically the Dyson Tract,Nash Park and Colonial Lake Park; nineparcels of township-owned land that arenot open space that the township antici-pates selling for residential property use;two privately-owned properties on Prince-ton Pike, which were formerly included inthe sewer service area; and two propertiesnorth of Route 206 that were included inthe most recent WMP.

    There were three areas that MercerCounty included in its plan that Parvessesuggested be excluded Cherry GroveFarm, The Lawrenceville School and seven

    erty, most importantly theCranstoun Farm.

    We own land that has sewerservice, which is worth less ifsewer service is taken away, hesaid.

    Sound of Music setfor May performancesThe Yardley Players present

    one of the worlds most belovedmusicals, Rodgers and Hammer-steins The Sound of Music, atMercer County Community Col-leges Kelsey Theatre. Dates andtimes are Fridays, May 3 and May10 at 8 p.m.; Saturdays, May 4 andMay 11 at 2 p.m. and 8 p.m.; andSundays, May 5 and May 12 at 2p.m. A reception with the cast and

    crew follows the opening nightperformance on May 3. KelseyTheatre is located on the college'sWest Windsor campus at 1200 OldTrenton Road.

    The hills are alive with thesound of music whenever Mariais around. Proving too high-spirit-ed for religious life, Maria is dis-patched to serve as governess forthe seven children of a widowednaval officer, Captain von Trapp.Her growing rapport with the

    youngsters, coupled with her gen-erous spirit, clash with the Cap-tain, his fiance, and finally the

    Nazis who seize power of herAustrian homeland.

    Based on the memoir of Mariavon Trapp, the original Broadwayproduction opened in 1959 andhas enjoyed numerous produc-tions and revivals since then. Itwas adapted as a 1965 film musi-cal starring Julie Andrews andChristopher Plummer, winningfive Academy Awards.

    For this production, art imi-tates life for Elizabeth Rzasa, who

    plays Maria in the show and alsoworks as a teaching assistant inthe Music program at MercerCounty Community College. ALawrenceville resident, Rzasaalso serves as the musical coordi-nator for the colleges TomatoPatch Visual and PerformingArts Workshops, a summer pro-gram for teens.

    Im so excited to be able totake my passion for teachingmusic and transform it into therole of Maria on stage, Rzasa

    said. Im sure this will be a reallyfun and memorable experiencefor me.

    Tickets are $18 for adults, $16for seniors and $14 for studentsand children. For tickets, call theKelsey Theatre Box Office at (609)570-3333 or visit kelseytheatre.net.Kelsey Theatre is wheelchair ac-cessible, with free parking avail-able next to the theater.

    How many nonprofit organiza-tions are prepared for the future?

    Its a future where the popula-tion will be older. According to

    New Jerseys Department ofLabor and Workforce Develop-ment, those 65 and older in NewJersey are estimated at 1.18 mil-lion in 2010. Thats expected togrow to 1.91 million by 2030. Asthe population ages, wealth willbe transferred from one genera-tion to the next. One lowgrowth estimate for 1998 to 2052will be $41 trillion transferred na-tionwide, according to the SocialWelfare Research Institute at

    Boston College. How can a non-profit organization position itselfto take advantage of this ongoingtransfer of wealth?

    Szaferman Lakind is teamingup with the United Way ofGreater Mercer County, the ac-counting firm of Klatzkin andCo., and the insurance brokeragefirm Borden, Perlman, Salisburyand Kelly to provide nonprofit ex-

    ecutives, development profession-als and board members with twofree presentations on May 8 from8 a.m. to 11 a.m. at Greenacres

    Country Club, which is located at2170 Lawrenceville Road inLawrence Township.

    The first presentation willcover tax law, gift and estate plan-ning, which will better equip or-ganizations to seek donations andplanned giving. But, a poorlymanaged nonprofit wont earn po-tential donors trust or theirmoney. Since management startsat the top, the second presenta-tion will cover board governance

    issues, which will help nonprofitsprevent problems and addressthem if they arise.

    As a community leader, Unit-ed Way of Greater Mercer Countyis proud to be a partner in thisevent as planned giving is an im-portant piece in a nonprofitfundraising strategy, especiallywith the changing face of philan-thropy and donors sophistica-

    tion, said Jodi Inverso, vicepresident of Brand Managementand Communications for theUnited Way of Greater Mercer

    County. With the economy notfully recovering and the popula-tion aging, nonprofits need toadapt.

    Nonprofits can prepare for to-morrow by registering today forthese presentations by going on-line to uwgmc.org/plannedgivingor by calling (609) 637-4903.
