    GardenGate Club

    celebrates45 years

    BY HEATHER FIOREThe Lawrence Sun

    Back in 1968, seven local moth-ers started a gardening group toshare ideas and discuss differenttechniques. It is known as theGarden Gate Club, and it is cele-brating its 45th anniversary thisyear.

    The group has doubled in sizesince its inception to incorporatea range of mothers, young andold, who engage in a variety ofgardening activities, said Mar-garet Miale, a charter member.

    We began the club because wethought we should have sometype of beautification in thetownship and be conscience ofecological needs, she said. It

    also started for social reasons. Weused to meet in each othershomes, but now we meet at theSenior Center.

    The mission of the GGC is toencourage the beautification ofhomes and the communitythrough an active interest in allphases of gardening, and to alsolook further to be responsible

    New Jersey residents are rich.

    Really rich. Were the second-

    richest state in the nation, be-

    hind only those people two states to

    the south in Maryland.

    The median household income for

    New Jersey residents is $69,667. Thats

    pretty good news.The bad news: That number is

    boosted in large part by the states

    ridiculously wealthy families. More

    than 11 percent of families here have

    an income of more than $200,000 per

    year.

    On the surface, the Garden States

    ranking of No. 2 on the list of wealthi-

    est states, compiled by 24/7 Wall St., is

    a positive sign to our economys health

    and future prospects. Dig deeper,

    though, and youll see a much differ-

    ent story.

    New Jerseys unemployment rate

    was 9.5 percent in 2012, one of the

    worst in the country. The national av-erage was 8.1 percent. The state above

    us on the rich list, Maryland, had a

    low unemployment rate of 6.8 percent,

    for example. Even worse, the number

    of people on food stamps increased

    from 8 percent in 2011 to 9.3 percent in

    2012.

    That is not good news.

    Still, our outlook is getting better. As

    of August, New Jerseys unemploy-

    ment rate was 8.5 percent, according

    to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.

    Thats the lowest mark since March

    2009, when it was 8.3 percent. It also

    closed the gap between the national

    unemployment rate, which sat at 7.3

    percent in August.

    But New Jersey needs to help busi-

    nesses create more jobs. While the

    state gained 60,300 jobs in the past 12

    months, it lost 1,500 in August. From

    July to August, more than 12,000 work-

    ers stopped looking for work and leftthe workforce.

    Thats not good, either.

    Gov. Christie recently revamped the

    states business tax breaks in an effort

    to add more jobs, but how effective

    that will be might take time to tell. Its

    a good first step, as any incentive to

    add more jobs is a positive step, as

    long as the state isnt digging a deeper

    debt hole.

    The bottom line is our workers need

    more jobs because the fact is that,

    while a small percentage of New Jer-

    sey families are rich, most are still

    struggling.

    in our opinion

    Were rich!!Well, at least some people are

    Your thoughts

    What, if anything, should our stategovernment do to incentivize businessesto add more jobs?

    St. Ann School was granted AdvancEDSchool System Accreditation from the Ad-vancED Accreditation Commission, thenational commission that confers theNorth Central Association Commission onAccreditation and School improvement ac-creditation seal. This means that the sys-tem and all of its schools are accredited,and that St. Ann School is recognizedacross the nation as a quality school sys-tem.

    The accreditation process involves threeongoing components meeting high quali-

    ty standards, implementing a continuousprocess of improvement and engaging inquality assurance through internal and ex-ternal review. The systems accreditationis a five-year term with regular monitoringof progress and reporting occurring dur-

    ing the term.Working with NCA CASI/AdvancED,

    the Department of Catholic Schools and el-ementary and secondary administratorsare committed to ensure stability, viability,quality and growth in our schools.

    The accreditation process assists byidentifying issues and developing strategicplans for improvement; incorporating astandards-driven and student-centered ap-proach with an emphasis on student per-formance; providing professional develop-ment and leadership opportunities; and,

    ensuring community involvement at alllevels.

    AdvancED School System is a rigorousprocess that focuses the entire school sys-tem on the primary goal of creating life-long learners, said Dr. Mark Elgart, presi-dent/CEO of AdvancED. St. Ann Schoolis commended for engaging in this processand demonstrating a commitment to con-tinuous improvement.

    Parents and interested communitymembers can learn more about the SystemAccreditation process at advance-ed.org.

    lish.Luckily, the congregations an-

    niversary celebration coincidedperfectly with the groups nexttour, making it feasible for it toperform almost 6,000 miles awayfrom home, Botwin said.

    After the performance, theyllbe spending the night at the syna-gogue to chat with our youthgroups about their history, whatthey do and their music, she

    said. Itll be a little impromptusession for people to talk to themand learn more about what theydo.

    Opening for The Fountain-heads will be Kol Ha Layla, the acappella student group from Rut-gers University, which has beenaround since 1995 and is consid-ered the premier Jewish musicalgroup on the New Brunswick

    campus. Their repertoire is a per-fect mix of traditional Jewish, Is-raeli and secular music, Botwinsaid.

    But, thats not all of the cele-bration. On Oct. 20, the congrega-tion will also host an Israeli streetfair with a variety of Israel-mademerchandise and foods beginningat 3 p.m., before the musical per-formances begin at 4:30 p.m.

    Tickets for the event, which in-cludes food, are $36 for adults andchildren older than 12, $18 forchildren ages 6 to 12, and free forchildren younger than 5.

    Other events scheduled during

    the celebration include a Shabbatservice on Feb. 7, honoring pastpresidents and longtime memberfamilies; a costume party on Feb.8 themed Rockin Out the 90s;an artist-in-residence weekend inApril with noted artist and arthistorian Mordechai Rosenstein;and a gala tribute event honoringRabbi Grossman for his 25th yearas spiritual leader of AIC.

    AIC was founded in Trenton in1923 and moved to Lawrencevillein 1991. Its the first egalitarianconservative synagogue serving

    the Princeton-Mercer-Bucks area,and has been cited by the UnitedSynagogue of Conservative Ju-daism in the categories of inclu-sion of individuals with disabili-ties, publications, celebrationsand dedications. Youth membersof the congregation serve in keyleadership roles in the UnitedSynagogue Youth.
