I
Frequently, heroism is starkly evident. A person saving another from a burning building,
bravery in the face of a debilitating illness, or defending our nation from enemiesthese are
all examples of visible heroism. Just as often, however, acts of heroism are subtler. Being
involved in important community projects, advocating on behalf of those less fortunate and
simply showing true kindness to others and expecting nothing in return are equally heroic
traits worthy of recognition.
These words were eloquently written by an individual (who shall remain anonymous)
who nominated one of last years Hometown Hero honorees. The sentiments express exactly
what the Hometown Heroes project is all about. This is our fourth
year honoring the Hometown Heroes among us. Including this year,
weve honored 90 individuals who have gone above and beyond to
make our community a better place to live, work and raise a family.
Some of the honorees fit the starkly evident mold. Weve honored
people who saved burn victims, who defied debiliating illness to help
others, and some who have sacrificed so much to serve our country
overseas. But most of our heroes are the less obvious variety. Many
dont consider their actions heroic at all. Most dont expect to get any
kind of recognition for their efforts. All are worthy of our gratitude.
The Grapevine salutes the 2012 Hometown Heroes and thanks them for their mighty
deeds and commitment to the community.
Read about the 2012 Hometown Heroes beginning on page 22.
Its hard to believe that this is the fourth time were presenting a crop of honorees. The
first time we did so, we wanted to come up with a way to celebrate The Grapevines first
anniversary without shining the spotlight on ourselves. We wanted to throw a party and cel-
ebrating our communitys unsung heroes seemed like a great way to go about it. With this
issue, we celebrate our fourth anniversary and were so proud to have our birthday coincide
with what has become a wonderful community endeavor.
On March 9, 2012 at 6 p.m., we will host our honorees at the annual Hometown Heroes
Gala at Merighis Savoy Inn. Whether or not you personally know any of our honorees, I
highly encourage you to consider attending. For the average couple, dining out in a decent
restaurant, followed by a movie or show or nightclub afterwards, can easily cost $130. Thats
the cost of a pair of tickets to our own Hometown Heroes Gala. Why not spend your night on
Friday, March 9, 2012 at Merighis Savoy Inn honoring our 21 Hometown Heroes?
For the money you spend on the tickets, youll get a great meal in a terrific setting, bump
into a few people you know from around town, dance the night away with a great DJ, and
have a great timeall while contributing to a great cause. I hope to see you on March 9.

Womens Hall of Fame Inductees Announced
The Cumberland County Womens Hall of Fame will induct five women at its annu-
al ceremony April 25, and the gala event at Merighis Savoy Inn is open to the public.
Receiving the 2012 coveted award at the Halls fourth annual induction will be:
Beverly Dairsow, of Hopewell Township, Executive
Assistant Pastor of Redeeming Life Full Gospel Ministries.
She is the founder and host of Women at the Well, an annual
Christian conference for women that began in 2003. As the
popularity of that conference grew, she founded Divine
Abundance International, a non-denominational, multicultur-
al, outreach organization that hosts Christian youth events,
seminars, and a variety of community service activities. As
Director of the Bridgeton Housing Authoritys after-school
program, she organizes after-school activities and has for
years coordinated a back-to-school bookbag giveaway that
prepares students with essentials such as pencils, socks, and
notebooks.
Jeanne Doremus, of Bridgeton, is the only female non-
lawyer or non-judge member of the Disciplinary Review Board
of the New Jersey Supreme Court, the intermediate appellate
level of the lawyer discipline system in New Jersey. She was
employed by the Vineland School District for 25 years, where
she became supervisor of Social Studies for the district. She
created the Delaware Estuary Program for the high school and
served on the board of the Bayshore Discovery Project. She
was voter service chair of the Cumberland County League of
Voters and received the Liberty Bell Award from the
Cumberland County Bar Association.
Pearl Giordano, of Vineland, began as a clerk Limpert Bros.,
Inc. and rose to become President, CEO and owner of the
company. She hosts a radio talk show on 92.1 WVLT, Pearl
Giordano & Friends, where she devotes much of the broadcast
to one of her most fervent causes, the healing miracles at the
Saint Padre Pio shrine. She is past president of The New
Jersey Food Processors Association and the Vineland Chamber
of Commerce. She currently serves on the Board of Managers
of Rutgers University and the board of the Vineland Library
Foundation. She was the first female to receive a national
award from the National Ice Cream Association, and she creat-
ed a new ice cream flavor to help raise money for cancer
research at the University of Pennsylvania.
Sara Carlisle Watson, formerly of Bridgeton, was president
of the Cumberland County Historical Society for 36 years,
which because of its success became a model for other
counties. During her tenure, the Society owned and operated
the Gibbon House, the Societys headquarters and museum
and the Warren Lummis Genealogical and Historical Library;
managed the Old Stone Church in Fairfield and the Old
Baptist Cemetery in Hopewell Township. Educated as a
teacher, Watson developed The Childrens Program that
brought students from throughout southern Jersey to Society
headquarters in Greenwich as part of their American History
curriculum to learn about life in the 18th century.
Meghan Wren, of Money Island, founded The Bayshore Discovery Project and
has dedicated her life to raising awareness of the Delaware Bayshore environment.
She found the hulk of a 1928 oyster schooner rotting in the Maurice River, bought it
for $1 and led a $1 million volunteer restoration that eight years later launched the
A.J. Meerwald, one of the last wooden schooners sailing in America. Today, it is
New Jerseys official Tall Ship, and she is the only female non-captain to receive the
Sail Trainer of the Year award from the Tall Ships of America organization. She has
inspired dozens of female crew, employees and volunteers to pursue active employ-
ment in environmental fields.

Downtown Vineland
{ TODD NOON, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, VDID / MAINSTREET VINELAND }
New Ideas
A sidewalk sale and redesigned
banners are just two on the agenda.
I
n this column, I have mentioned before
how the projects, events, and initiatives
that you see take place are the result of
a long period of behind-the-scenes
planning. Depending on the size and nature
of the project, such planning may start
months (or years) in advance.
Activity is buzzing right now with sub-
committees hard at work on several initia-
tives, some of which I mentioned in earlier
columns. If any of these strike your fancy and
you want to join us, please contact us.
Volunteers have been going to downtown
businesses door-to-door to seek their involve-
ment in an exciting new Keep It Local
Wednesdays initiative. Just like Lunch on
Landis encouraged people to patronize our
downtown eateries, Keep It Local
Wednesdays will encourage people to shop
at downtown on Wednesdays. This will be a
sustained campaign throughout the year and
Lunch on Landis will take place on occa-
sion as part of the campaign. We are looking
to have discount cards for the Keep It Local
Wednesdays campaign that will be given out
and window clings for participating business-
es to let people know that they are part of this
program. Watch this column for details on
the launch of this campaign.
While the volunteers are asking businesses
about Keep It Local Wednesdays, they are
getting information about businesses for
Main Street Vinelands new website, which
will be launched shortly. This will be a way to
link our downtown businesses to Main Street
Vinelandand Main Street Vineland to our
local businesses.
A subcommittee is also at work planning a
sidewalk sale for Saturday, July 28. Sidewalk
sales were, at one time, a much-anticipated
part of downtown Vinelands spring and sum-
mer activities. As businesses left our down-
town, these sales slowly fell by the wayside.
With our downtown revitalizationand the
success of other recent merchant events
downtownit is time to bring the sidewalk
sale back. We will have more information on
it in future columns.
The success of our Wedding Weekend
event last year has prompted us to repeat it
this year. It is being planned as a one-day
event on a Saturday in October. Again, vendors
dealing in wedding and wedding-related serv-
ices will be on hand downtown and, like last
year, will have some great prizes and incen-
tives. Watch for more details.
We are also working on newhanging ban-
ners to beautify our downtown. While the
projects I have just mentioned are those of our
Promotions Committee, the banner project
involves our Design Committee. The newban-
ners will give the downtown more of a sense
of place. This is so important with Landis
MarketPlace and other newbusinesses attract-
ing people fromoutside the area. Signage and
other wayfinding elements to give the down-
town a sense of place was also one of the key
elements of the recent Parking, Circulation,
and Landscape Study. Asubcommittee is
working on a design for the newbanners.
So, you can see that our Main Street
Vineland office is alive with all sorts of plan-
ningplanning that will result in some great
things going on in our downtown shortly. You
can become a part of all this by becoming a
Main Street Vineland volunteer and joining
us. You can also make a donation to Main
Street Vineland to help us in our good work. I

District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the
U.S. Virgin Islands, and several locations internationally.
Dr. Clarks doctoral work in experimental pathology, and post-doctoral work as

to acquire two biotechnology patents related to the AIDS virus.
Dr. Clark demonstrated teaching excellence as Chairman of Cumberland County
Colleges Self Study Team from 1998 to 2001, and from 2008 to 2011. His commu-
nication skills led the way for CCC to successfully prepare for reaccreditation by

ferent types of light, and students will

achieve professional results at home.
The class meets for four sessions 6:30-
8:30 p.m. Thursdays, beginning February
16. Cost is $145. Call the office of

Millville Dentist Gives Kids a
Reason to Smile
Nationally promoted by the American
Dental Association, Millville dentist Dr.
George Kourakin is offering free
Emergency Dental Treatment on Friday,
February 24, between the hours of 8:30
a.m. and 4 p.m. A hygienist will be available
from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.
The free dental treatments will be given
at Dr. Kourakins office located at 16 West
Vine Street in Millville.
Children under the age of 12 with den-
tal emergencies who have no insurance and
therefore cannot afford dental care, will be
provided with Emergency Dental
Treatment at no cost on a first-come first-
served basis, says Dr. Kourakin. We will
be conducting similar community events in
Millville periodically throughout the year to
help the less fortunate in our community.
Dr. Kourakin launched a Good Deed
Contest in January. The contest, open to
any youth 18 years of age and under, ends
on May 19, 2012. Children are urged to join
the Good Deed Contest by submitting an

one pack of cigarettes a day for 30 years or at least two packs of
cigarettes a day for 15 years. In addition, patients 50-54 who have

Holocaust Survivor Recounts Experiences
Local Holocaust survivor Mr. Sol Finkelstein was a recent visitor to Terry
Kuhnreich's Search for Conscience class at Vineland High School South.
Mr. Finkelstein spoke about his experiences during the war. He fielded a series
of questions from the students about his life during this dark time in history. He
explained how many times he escaped death and how many people were so
tragically beaten and killed right before his eyes. He spoke of the importance of
tolerance and peace.
"Everyone did their best to survive," said Mr. Finkelstein. "I promised my
father on the last day I saw him alive that I would share our story so it would
never be forgotten."
"I just can't understand how an entire group of people could be targeted for
death simply because of their religion," said Jessica Bertonazzi, a senior.
Center, Mr. Finkelstein, Mrs. Kuhnreich directly behind him and the following surrounding
Search for Conscience students: Kyle Bennett, Aiden Rodriguez, Jonathon Tyson, Jaskan
Singh, Marcus Nelson, John Harris, Ethan Brown, Justin Feliciano, Ian Feliciano, Ian Fay,

Nicolai Berezin, Sean Chini, Kristina Soto, Kristen Blank, Rafal Klepacki, Luis Adrion,

Bertanozzi, Charlotte Harold, Susanna Romero, Alexa Iori-Hetzer, Keifer Biggs, Sean

Family Dishes
G
reetings! I love when people freely
share their family favorite recipes
with others. I never quite under-
stood the concept of secret family
recipes, unless one is planning to open a
restaurant or bakery. Why do I feel this way?
Because sadly, I have heard far too many sto-
ries of loved ones passing away without leav-
ing their treasured recipes behind. I person-
ally would hate for that to happen, so in my
family we have always been an open book
when it comes to our family recipes. Just
knowing others enjoy making and serving
some of our cherished family favorites makes
the sharing all that much easier. So I encour-
age you to reveal those beloved recipes; take
the time to jot them down, and pass them on
so others can enjoy your cherished family
dishes. Then sit back and relish the rave
reviews (pun intended)!
The following recipe and story is shared
by Deborah A. Ein (Grapevines very own
managing editor) who writes:
My mom would often make cabbage
soup from a recipe she had gotten from my
aunt (her sister, who was married to Uncle
Eddy, a Polish man with the bluest eyes I
think Ill ever see). In trying to recreate a
healthier version, I found this recipe online.
Although it calls for chicken, I still use
ground meat, but often replace it with a
leaner meat than beef, such as pork or veal.
Golumpki Cabbage Soup
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 cup diced carrots
1 cup diced white onions
1/2 cup chopped celery
1/2 head of white cabbage, cored and
cut into 1/2-inch wide strips
2 cups chopped tomatoes
2 cups shredded and cooked skinless
chicken breasts
1/2 teaspoon finely minced garlic
1 cup tomato juice
3 cups unsalted chicken broth
1-1/2 cups cooked brown rice
1 teaspoon lemon thyme
1 tablespoon chopped flat-leaf parsley
1 teaspoon caraway seeds
1/2 tablespoon Hungarian paprika
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over
medium heat in a heavy-bottomed saucepan
or stockpot. Add the carrots and cook until
slightly softened, approximately three min-
utes. Add the white onions and celery to the
pot. Cook the mirepoix, a combination of 50
percent onion and 25 percent each celery
and carrots, until softened, approximately
five minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the
cabbage to the pot. Stir the mixture and
cook until the cabbage softens and begins to
release moisture, approximately four min-
utes. Add the tomatoes and stir to incorpo-
rate. Add the chicken breast, garlic, tomato
juice and chicken broth. Simmer the soup
for 10 minutes and add the brown rice.
Continue cooking until the starch from the
rice thickens the soup, approximately 15
minutes. Add the lemon thyme, flat-leaf
parsley, caraway seeds and Hungarian
paprika to the soup. Season to taste with
kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.
As always, from my kitchen to yours,
Bon Appetit! I

At the end of 2010, Cumberland
County native Robert Dragotta was
responsible for bringing two musicals to
the Landis Theater. First, in November,
there was Girls Night: The Musical,
which was met with such acclaim by locals, that Dragotta,
who is a producing partner with Entertainment Events Inc.,
received several requests to bring another show to the the-
ater. He did just that in December with Sisters Christmas
Catechism: The Mystery of the Magis Golda one-woman
comedy that featured a unique retelling of the nativity story.
After a one-year respite, Dragotta is bringing another
production to Vineland. Girl Talk: The Musical will be at the
Landis Theater later this week.
The success of the last two shows, both targeted at
women, and the requests to bring another one to Vineland,
was the impetus that brought Girl Talk: The Musical to the
Landis Theater, said Dragotta.
The turnout [for our two shows] was so good last year, he said. And a lot of
my friends that went asked me to bring something back. They said, Weve seen
Girls Night, what else do you have? And for us, Girl Talk was the obvious choice
to bring in.
The play tells the story of Barbara, Dr. Laura, and Janice, three radio talk show
hosts hosting the last show of Girl Talk after a 10-year run. Though Girl Talk is
coming to an end, the three characters decide to make it a tell-all party, rather
than a wake. They cover everything from men and sex to what its like to being a
woman in the modern world, with plenty of laughs and music in between.
The show has been described as Sex and The City meets Chelsea Lately, a
salacious description that Wilma Cespedes-Rivera (pictured beneath the original
casts promotional photo above), who plays the comic-relief character of Dr.
Laura, says is quite accurate.
In the show we talk a lot of about sex, and different sex positions and that
type of thing, she said. There is even one part where we have a long discussion
about the proper way to kiss. Its definitely not a show thats safe for children.
She claims, however, that the show isnt all lust and lechery. There are some
tender moments in which the characters discuss issues that affect every woman.
We talk about the jealousy and the power struggle that goes on in cliques of
girlfriends, said Cespedes-Rivera. Stuff that every woman can relate to because
weve all gone through it with our friends. And you even see some of it going on
between the different characters during the show.
The show also covers a wide range of musical artists throughout its duration.
There are songs by Jennifer Lopez, Aretha Franklin, The Pointer Sisters, and even
an homage to Los Del Rios Macarena, with a slight variation. The songs, for the
most part, are upbeat and designed to get the audience moving.
During the show, we really try to encourage the audience to get loud, get up
on their feet, and dance with us, said Cespedes-Rivera.
Audience participation will not be limited to just dancing and singing along,
however. Getting the audience involved with the show is actually a cornerstone of
the performance.
The ladies in attendance can expect to come up on stage with us, said
Cespedes-Rivera. Its really a back and forth kind of show. We ask the audience
questions, and we expect them to play along with us. It really allows for a lot of
spontaneity in the show. Some of the questions are pretty personal, and its
always a surprise what women are willing to share.
The shows unpredictability is part of what makes it so fun for the performers.
I really love it, said Cespedes-Rivera. I think we all kind of feed off of it and
the more alive the audience, the more alive the performance.
Girl Talk: The Musical will be at The Landis Theater on February 17. Tickets
can be bought online or at the box office. Ryan Dinger

Classic
Fiddler
I
f there is a musical that captures the
nuances of history and its eternal
struggle with tradition, it is Fiddler on
the Roof, the Broadway smash by
Jerry Bock, Sheldon Harnick and Joseph
Stein that set a new record as the longest-
running stage show on the Great White Way.
It has graced countless high school auditori-
ums over the decades and toured extensively
in road shows, and now the film version of
the play will settle into the Landis Theater
on Thursday evening at 7:30.
Based on Tevye and His Daughters by
Sholem Aleichem, Fiddler on the Roof, under
the direction and choreography of Jerome
Robbins, appeared on Broadway in 1964, and
presciently addressed the issues of femi-
nism, civil rights and the youth movement
that would dominate our countrys agenda
for the remainder of the decade. The play is
about tradition, or rather how the bending of
tradition are the seeds that rearrange the
existing order.
Appropriately, its setting is 1905 Russia, a
pivotal year that foreshadowed the impend-
ing changes that would transform the coun-
try. Tired of the repressive regime of the
Czar and armed with 19th century socialist
ideologies, many workers and students
banded together for a revolution that did not
succeed in accomplishing the overthrow of
the monarchy as its 1917 counterpart did.
Fiddler on the Roof focuses on the small
Jewish village of Anatevka where milkman
Tevye and his wife and five daughters reside
during an age of increased persecution of
Jews. In the course of the play, three of
those daughters defy the tradition of the
matchmaker and seek their fathers permis-
sion to marry for love.
In the 1960s, the stage version captured
the imagination of theatergoers ready for
such a method and it ran for 3,242 perform-
ances. But Fiddler on the Roof is a unique
play for its time and genre, presenting joyous
moments of song and celebration amidst
brooding undertones that pervade its three-
hour running time. It is contemplative as
much as it is entertaining, yet several of its
songs have become standards in the
American songbook.
When, in 1971, director Norman Jewison
delivered his film version of the play, he was
dealing with audiences that already experi-
enced social changes similar to those in the
movie. But those changes hadnt yet been
instituted in the Soviet regime, so during
the time of its release, the movie reflected
the plight of those behind the Iron Curtain
and was made all the more relevant by film-
ing in Yugoslavia.
The locations lift the play from a stark
stage setting into a reality necessary for the
moviegoer, and the sprawling outdoor sites
that accommodate Tevyes daughters
requests in the second act, are a physical
reminder of the vastness of those delibera-
tions. Despite changes like this, the director
managed to preserve moments from the play
in which Tevye, breaking the fourth wall,
addresses the audience and God. Crucial to
the inner workings of the character, these
soliloquies are the heart of the work and in
Jewisons hands, smoothly transfer from
stage to cinema.
Jewisons only flaw in the production
might be his decision not to cast Broadways
original Tevye, the highly acclaimed Zero
Mostel. According to online sources, the
director deliberately avoided giving Mostel
the lead for fear that his personality would
supersede the role.
Jewisons choice, Topol, had played Tevye
in the musicals London production and does
deliver a first-rate performance in the film.
The most impressive moments in the
movie are the montage sequences, including
the wedding segment in which faces are
intercut with icons of the celebration while
the song Sunrise, Sunset provides the
reveries of the characters. Just as effective is
the conclusion of the wedding reception that
is interrupted by the violence of government
thugs, a scene that eerily echoes Nazi
Germanys Kristallnacht.
At the start of the film, Tevye likens the
precarious situation of the townsfolk to a
fiddler on the roof trying to play a tune
without falling off. Ironically, by the time of
the films release, the title aptly applied to
the era of musicals that had sired works like
this. New plays, such as Stephen Sondheims
Company, were altering the course of musi-
cal theater as drastically as the circum-
stances surrounding Tevye and his family
and bending yet another tradition. I
BJ Garrisons Story: Diabetic
Alert Dog Needed
For many years I have been actively
involved with the Cumberland Players, a
local community theater located in
Millville. It has been my passion to work
with the children who participate in this
program since its founding in 2001. The
program is designed for the kids in South
Jersey to learn self-respect, confidence,
team work and more through their par-
ticipation in a theatre arts program.
In 2007, I became very ill with necro-
tizing pancreatitis while I was working
on a pet project production of Peter Pan.
I landed in the hospital
and was in a coma for
more than nine months.
My recovery took well
into 2009 when I was
finally well enough to
start working with the
kids again. Just before
opening night in 2009,
my appendix burst and
I had emergency sur-
gery to remove my
appendix as well as part
of my colon. Since that
time I have been hospi-
talized three more
times for recurring bouts of pancreatitis
and my ability to participate with the kids
has been extremely limited.
The cumulative effects of my illnesses
have resulted in some major health chal-
lenges, including my pancreas no longer
working properly and a diagnosis of Type
1 Diabetes. Most Type 1 diabetics are
diagnosed before the age of 21. So, every
day I struggle with wildly fluctuating
blood sugars that could result in addition-
al organ failure, coma or even death.
So, why do I need a Diabetic Alert Dog
(D.A.D.)? Well
Every day I might not wake up in the
morning!
Every time I drive a car, I could kill
myself or someone else!
A D.A.D. detects when my blood
sugar is low or high, day or night and will
be trained to go get help from another
person, get my supplies, bring me juice
out of the fridge, and even call 911 with a
special device if I am unresponsive.
Ace is a service dog and once fully
trained will be able to accompany me
everywhere I go offering me greater inde-

DIANE AMICO is particularly skilled in
bringing together her environmental back-
ground, the social needs of her community,
and the external
resources needed to
accomplish vision-
ary goals. As chair-
person of the City
of Vineland
Environmental
Commission, she
has spearheaded
numerous initiatives in the community.
Because of her leadership and encourage-
ment, members of the Commission regular-
ly attend environmental workshops. She
also oversees a committee that provides
trees each year to local schools for Arbor
Day celebrations. Larger environmental
groups in the region cannot be effective
without the help of environmental commis-
sions, and it is people like Diane that make
them so.
Diane was instrumental in the develop-
ment of an open space plan for the county.
She is the mayoral-appointed chairperson of
Vinelands Green Team, part of a
statewide Sustainable Jersey certification
program for municipalities going green.
Under her leadership, Vineland received a
$15,000 grant to install a wind-turbine at
Landis Sewerage Authority.
With Citizens United (CU) to Protect the
Maurice River and Its Tributaries, Inc. she
has served on The Board of Trustees for two
years, is secretary, and serves on CUs
Research Committee.
Diane has always been there for the
important public environmental debates
that lead to positive change. Going beyond
the municipal level, she volunteers for the
NJ Department of Environmental
Protection, paddling local waterways to ver-
ify locations of rare, threatened, and endan-
gered plant species, and annually for the
Delaware Bay Shorebird Project, participat-
ing in bird banding and other projects.
ELLA BOYKIN
retired in 2003
from 27 years of
teaching English at
Vineland High,
where she also was
a peer leadership
trainer and advisor
for the Black Student Union Association. As
a Past President of the New Jersey
Association of Black Educators, she spent 10
years advocating statewide for the landmark
Abbott litigation to bring financial parity for
poor children in our district. She directed
Vineland Public Schools first Before &
After School Programs in the early 1990s,
After School Programs at Axtell Estates and
at Amity Heights in Bridgeton. It was a
good lead-in to her present position, direct-
ing the After School Program, Visions of
Hope, which stresses academic excellence,
intergenerational communication, volun-
teerism, parent coaching, and cultural
enrichment. She works vigorously to secure
funding by writing grant proposals for
Visions of Hope, located at the Carl Arthur
Center. Along with educational and recre-
ational facilities, the Center is also home to
the African-American Museum, of which
Ella has been a caretaker. Ella has served on
numerous city, county and state boards. She
is presently a member of the Cumberland
Empowerment Zone Advisory Board,
Vineland Municipal Alliance, Cumberland
County Black Hall of Fame Board of
Directors, was recently elected Vice
Chairperson for the Cumberland County
Cultural and Heritage Commission; and is a
life member of the NAACP. And all while
raising eight children with her husband
John Boykin, III.
DONALD ANTHONY CARTER JR., along
with his mother, was returning to their car
after shopping at Walmart in Vineland, on
December 1. Thats
when the 14-year-
old, known as
Anthony, found a
bank envelope next
to their car contain-
ing $945 in cash.
After locating the
woman who had
lost the money, they found she was a moth-
er of five children, ages ranging one through
12. The family had recently moved out of a
homeless shelter, and the woman had gone
to Walmart to purchase a money order to
pay rent for a new apartment; she dropped
the envelope while getting out of her vehi-
cle. If she hadnt had the money returned to
her, she would have lost the apartment.
When the Carters pastor heard the story,
Pastor Bill Clay of the Ramoth Church and
congregation decided to take Anthonys act
of kindness one step further by providing
the family Christmas gifts and items needed
in the new apartment.
GINGER CHASE received a Congressional
Achievement award for her contributions
for the physically and mentally challenged.
She has contributed
to the community
in many different
venues, serving as
past president and a
current board
member of the
YMCA as well as
the Greater
Chamber of Commerce. She is treasurer on
the Board of Trustees at Cumberland
County College. Ginger serves as vice presi-
dent of Cumberland County Womens Hall
of Fame, which recognizes women who live
and work in our county who are strong role
models for our youth. In addition to the
Congressional Achievement Award already
mentioned, she was awarded a Martin
Luther King Community service from the
NAACP, a Vineland City Council Service
Commendation, a Sicilian American Clubs
Spirit of Achievement award, a Hendricks
House Community Service award, and a
Small Business of the Year award from the
Chamber of Commerce (she is co-owner of
Sir Speedy Printing). Ginger also earned the
2010 Vocational Service Award from Rotary
Club of Vineland.
PASTOR VANDY L. COLTER of Kingdom
Covenant Christian Center (KCCC) in
Vineland has a vision. Originally from
Brooklyn, New
York, and in the
music industry, he
became a widower
in 1989 with two
small children. It
was then that he
decided to start a
new life in New
Jersey. In 1997 he met his wife Barbara and
they married two years later. He believes
that God called him and his wife to minis-
ter here in Vineland. He welcomes mem-
bers and nonmembers alike to utilize all of
the services at KCCC, where they offer
tutoring, after-school programs, summer
camp, women of Judah, a mens fellowship,
and a daycare center. Pastor Colter appears
on the Word Network Channel at 3 a.m.
EST Sunday night. He is a chaplin to
Vinelands Police Department. His mission
is to help others and bring family together-
ness back to the community. He would love
to help fathers play a greater role in their
childrens lives.

the Year last year for VDID/Main Street
Vineland, where she had served on the

the tireless worker
was also chair of
the promotions
committee and in
that role, played a
key part in launch-
ing the Baby Parade, Soap Box Derby,
Outdoor Farmers Market, and Chili and
Ribs Cook-off, among other events. A nomi-
nator said, Main Street has given her mod-
est recognition, but she deserves recogni-
tion by the larger community. Ive wit-
nessed her willingness to step up and fill
numerous positions as needed while also
mentoring others.

and Challenger League. Shes a board mem-
ber of Vineland Development Corporation.

Inclusion in New Jersey Super Lawyers and Best Lawyers in America is based upon peer review rankings by other attorneys and is not a designation by the New Jersey Supreme Court.
ing the Vineland Rotary in 2004, Joe quick-
ly gravitated to Community Service,
becoming Chairman of the Community
Service Group for the Rotary in 2005. He
and the other committee members worked
on Tiny Tim, Adopt a Road, holiday parties
for special-needs kids, and parties at the
Developmental Center. But he focused he
efforts on the Challenger League. The com-
mittee advertised and sought the help of
several parents of special-needs children to
get the league started with 30 kids and a
total of two teams. The next year the league
grew to 50 children and a total of four
teams. By 2011 the league had nearly 100
children and eight teams competing for
10 weeks.
Every Challenger League game has other
groups assisting the special-needs children
in the field and around the bases. And no
matter who helps out, everyone leaves the
field a better person and truly touched by
the experience. Because of Joe and his com-
mittees dedication, the Challenger League
is an incredible success story. Over 100 boys
and girls with disabilities, who would other-
wise probably never get to play a sport, or
be part of a sports team, now have the expe-
rience of hitting the game-winning hit They
now experience the thrill of touching home
plate and scoring a run.
Joe is the first to volunteer helping you
move or fix a light switch, and hes the first
one to donate his time to charity. But hes
the last person to take any credit. He simply
enjoys helping others.
MELANIE DRUZIAKO has been a member
of the Rotary Club of Vineland since 2007.
She has held the position of District
Interact Chair for
the Rotary since
2009. Interact
Clubs are youth-
sized versions of
Rotary Clubs,
formed to teach the
importance of serv-
ice learning to chil-
dren as young as 10 years old. The District
includes 37 high school clubs with more
than 2,500 youth. In addition, Melanie is
club advisor for Cumberland County
College Rotaract and VHS Interact clubs.
Ellison's Interact Club is the first to form
at the middle school level in this Rotary dis-
trict and was chartered by the Rotary Club
of Vineland in May 2011. An Ellison parent
has this to say about Melanie: She has
tapped into an incredible source. Now,
those students as young as 10 will be active-
ly involved in community service and likely
throughout their lives.
In just two years, Melanie has performed
200+ hours of community service. She has
an open-door policy for all of her students/
members and often provides guidance in
personal, school and work-related issues.
DONALD FIOCCHI JR. was instrumental
in the water rescue for Hurricane Irene at
the Dante Avenue Bridge. He risked his life
to save others. This
incredible rescue
was reported on
Channels 3 and 10.
He is the Captain of
Vineland Fire
Company #5, which
was honored by
Governor Christie a
few months ago. As a firefighter, you often
put your life on the line. Although he feared
for his life that day, he courageously took on
what was part of the job.
No one would ever doubt Donnies dedi-
cation to his community, church, family, and
friends. His heroism is unassuming, his
courage is noble, and his love for people is
unconditional.
Donnie has been a member of several
organizations for more than 30 yearsthe
Harmony Gun Club and New Italy
American Society, both of which give annu-
al scholarships, and the NJ State Firemens
Exempt Association. Donnie also volunteers
his time to teach extrication rescue classes
every month. Donnie is one of those guys
who never says no, I cant do it. No is just
not in his vocabulary.
KRISTINA GARCIA, a Vineland High
School honor student, was named Volunteer
of the Year by the Vineland YMCA. Garcia
has logged more
than 500 hours
with the Vineland
YMCA while work-
ing in child care.
She devoted her
entire summer to
facilitating the
YMCAs Healthy U
camp program, helping with lunchtime and
providing administrative support to the
staff. She volunteers for youth sports. My
favorite thing about volunteering is the
kids, said Kristina. I like working with
them because they are all unique. She adds
that volunteering at the Y is assisting her in
her career exploration. Volunteering is
helping me find out what I want to do when
I get older, she said.
Kristina is proof-positive that theres a
niche for all of us in community service
and that you can find that niche no matter
how young or old. She asks what she can
do and will do anything for us. She comes in
every day, said a Y representative.
Kristina is also very involved as church
ministry leader in the Because We Love You
Ministry. She applied to be part of Juvenile
Justice Committee and attends Cumberland
Christian School. She has been an honor
roll student since first grade.

COSMO GIOVANIZZI has deep roots and a
strong history in Vineland. That is one of
the reasons that Capital Bank of New Jersey
chose him to be
their Cumberland
County Market
Manager when they
opened for business
five years ago.
Working at Capital
Bank, Cosmo has
demonstrated a
commitment to the community by helping
hundreds of local businesses obtain financing
to start or expand their companies. He has
been an advocate for the revitalization of
Downtown Vineland. Cosmo contributes to
the community in many other ways. He is
currently the Chairman of Big Brothers and
Sisters of Cumberland and Salem Counties,
Treasurer of the Italian American Benevolent
Association and serves on the Board of the
Vineland Development Corporation. His past
community service includes serving on the
boards of the Cumberland County Technical
Education Center and the Greater Vineland
Chamber of Commerce. He is the past
President and Treasurer of the Vineland
Police Athletic League.
GWENDOLYN GOULD is a fierce and tire-
less soldier in campaigns for social justice
and community improvement. She was one
of a handful of local
activists who initi-
ated a volunteer
Community Health
organization in
Bridgeton in 1974 to
serve the large pop-
ulation of health-
underserved
migrant workers and residents of
Cumberland County. At that time, she and
the other health advocates enlisted volun-
teer physicians, created an affiliation with
the Hospital system and launched the
Bridgeton Area Health Services Community
Medical Center. In 1976 they secured their
first Migrant Health Grant. Today, Gwen is
Board Chair of the CompleteCare Health
Network, the Federally Qualified Health
Center (FQHC) she helped create. During
her decade-long tenure as Chair, the health
organization has tripled its service area,
increased its health service centers from 4
to 18 and expanded services from 30,000 to
160,000 per year. She has also been diligent
in nurturing farm worker leadership within
the agency and has made farm worker out-
reach a priority. All this made her a most
deserving recipient of the national 2011
Outstanding Migrant Health Center Board
Member Award, and we are proud to claim
her also as a Hometown Hero.
KEVIN J. KIRCHNER has a passion for all
things Vineland, particularly a piece of
Vineland history known as The Palace of
Depression. He has
been rebuilding it
for the past 10
years, using every
bit of vacation time,
weekends, and
spare time to recre-
ate the architectur-
al wonder. On his
own time, he also visits schools, civic
groups, and organizations to educate the
community on the history of the Palace and
its original builder, George Daynor.
As a member of the Mayor's Blue Ribbon
Committee, Kevin organized and ran
Vinelands l50th Anniversary Celebration
last August for four consecutive days. He
recruited many volunteers, booths and rides
for the celebration, and he organized and
recruited floats for the celebration parade.
He has revived The Miss Vineland Pageant
and as a member of The Friends of Historic
Vineland, he helps every year setting up and
tearing down tents for Founders Day, a task
he also takes on for several downtown
events and any others that promote the
community. During the Founders Day event,
he takes on the persona of George Daynor,
and theres no better man for that role.
THEODORE KRAUSE, at an age when
most people would be content to look back
upon a lifetime of achievement, continues to
work, serve his
community, and
look at each day as
a new challenge.
This past year, as
Ted celebrated his
100th birthday, he
was honored by
AXA Equitable Life
Insurance Company as the organizations
oldest active financial professional (where
he has been an insurance broker since 1947)
and will soon be honored as the No. 1 insur-
ance agent for the company for 2011. Ted
has been a member and stalwart leader of
Beth Israel Congregation since 1930 and a
longtime member of the YMCA, where he
regularly swam (even past his 100th birth-
day last August), and a co-founder of the Ys
Endowment Fund.
Krauses sense of community service has
also extended to such organizations as the
Vineland Ministerial Fellowship and
Hendricks House. Ted still lives each day
with the conviction of helping those in need
and serving his community. He has often said
that he will not retire, being of the firm belief
that, as long as he is mentally and physically
able to work and be of help to those who
need him, he will continue to be active.

Vineland High, where she teaches Search
for Conscience, a class that revolves
around the lessons of the Holocaust. A stu-
dent had this to say about the class and its
teacher: She always brings history to life.
She always goes out of her way to bring us
speakers and make the class exciting. We
learn about tolerance and diversity. She gets
us to think and see things from every point
of view. She is always there for us both in
and out of class.
Terry is currently active as a member of
the Cumberland County Holocaust
Education Committee, and a guest speaker
for various schools to teach lessons about

Special Winter 7 Day Service
each month collecting funds that go to ben-
efit the patients of Childrens Hospital in
Philadelphia.
She helps set up a fundraising drive for a
needy family at Christmas each year. Gail
helped organize the first South Jersey
Reality Fair, which helps high school stu-
dents with financial literacy. They learn to
set up a budget and how to maintain and
live within that budget.
Gails biggest attribute is her willingness
to help others in time of need. She always
thinks of others before herself. Whether it
is cooking and delivering food to someone
or just being there to hold a hand, she has a
heart of gold.
RONALD E. MCMAHON has been involved
in community activities since moving to
Vineland 38 years ago. He has organized and
conducted blood
drives for the Red
Cross in conjunc-
tion with the Rotary
Club for the last 15
years. Starting with
two drives each
year, he was so suc-
cessful that he was
asked to increase the number and now con-
ducts four per year. He has run 47 drives,
collecting a total of 1,600 units of blood. For
a long time, he has been a very active mem-
ber of Rotary Club, participating in road
cleanup, distribution of dictionaries to third
graders, and in Pedals for Progress. At his
own expense, he participated in the Rotary
Polio Pens program, traveling to Africa and
India to administer the vaccine to children
and to eradicate the disease. Upon his
return, he presented programs to service
organizations and to classrooms in order to
highlight the need in other countries.
He sings on a regular basis with the
Franciscan Troubadors, entertaining at
assisted living facilities and nursing homes.
Ron very quietly visits and takes to lunch
people who are otherwise housebound. If
families need transportation to hospitals,
even as far as Philadelphia, he is always
ready to provide transportation.
TRACY MORGADO is a member of the
Dotty Cullen and Friends Volunteer Group.
She has co-hosted holiday parties at Baker
House Senior Care
facility for several
years, and has
assisted with pro-
viding entertain-
ment, gifts and
homemade goodies
there. Some of the
other organizations
she had helped out are the SPCA (as a gen-
eral volunteer), Kids Care Club, Gittone
Park (cleaned up trash), Ronald McDonald
house (collected wish list items), and
Homeless Greyhounds (furnished dog treats
and tried to find shelter). She is an employ-
ee of 10 years at Wallace Middle School
where she is very involved both as a teacher
and a parent.
As a single mom, Tracy has involved her
son Connor in her volunteer activities,
which has instilled in him the same sense
of community service. It was certainly a
proud moment for her as a mom when
Connor was awarded a gold level
Presidential Service Award by accumulat-
ing more than 100 hours of community
service in 12 months.
AL MORGAN: Some know him as a pastor.
Since 1986, he has been pastor of Union
Baptist Temple in Bridgeton, where he pre-
sides over the
preaching and
teaching ministry.
He leads and coor-
dinates more than
85 ministries,
including the
Christian
Education min-
istries, Koinonia Bible Institute, and
Healing Word Biblical Counseling Center.
Through the Bethany Baptist Association of
South Jersey, he led more than 100 church-
es in developing spiritual, missions, educa-
tional and recreational experiences for their
congregations. Some have known Al as a
chaplain, as this is a service he provides to
South Jersey Medical Center as well as the
City of Bridgeton Police Department. Some
have known him as a teacher; he taught
social studies and African-American history
at Vineland High for three decades. Some
know him as executive director of The Alms
Center in Bridgeton or as producer of The
Awaking Hour. Some know him as a former
councilman for the City of Bridgeton. All
who know Pastor Morgan know him as one
man who has made a big difference and
made positive changes throughout the
county through selfless community service.
LUIGI TRAMONTANA SR. has been an
integral part of the North Vineland Little
League, Challenger League Division, since
co-chairing the
construction of the
North Vineland
Little league Rotary
Center. The
Challenger League,
established in 1989,
offers physically
and mentally chal-
lenged boys and girls the opportunity to
participate in the game of baseball. Luigi
presently serves his community as a mem-
ber of Rotary, the YMCA Board of Directors
and Finance Committee, and the Greater
Vineland Chamber of Commerce Board of
Directors. He is co-chair of the Vineland
Challenger League, an organization near
and dear to his heart. I
