In 1816, a Quaker farmernamed Joseph Thorn completedconstruction of a farmhouse on aplot of land near what is todayknown as the Barclay andKingston neighborhoods of Cher-ry Hill Township. The deed wasissued to the property on Jan. 29,1816.

Today, in a town with morethan 70,000 residents and anabundance of development, thefarmhouse, now known as Bar-clay Farmstead, still stands at theend of Barclay Lane, with openfields, a community garden andwoods surrounding it.

This year, Friends of BarclayFarmstead and Cherry Hill Town-ship are teaming for a huge, year-long celebration of the farm-stead’s 200th anniversary. The bi-centennial celebration kicked off

at last Monday’s council meeting.Mayor Chuck Cahn and councilissued a proclamation to Friendsin honor of the farmstead’s an-niversary.

Representatives from the town-ship and Friends of BarclayFarmstead spoke of making thisyear’s celebration the biggest inthe history of the site. The town-ship owns and operates the prop-erty, while Friends is a nonprofit

running much of the program-ming at the farmhouse. The or-ganization also partners with thetownship in supporting thepreservation of the site.

“It’s such a unique interaction

between a publicly-owned proper-ty and a private support groupthat has a long history of cooper-ation,” said Beth Beatty, presidentof Friends of Barclay Farmstead.“I think it’s something township

residents are not really awareabout. It’s a great opportunity forthe township and the Friendsgroup to call attention to this verypositive relationship.”

Along with Croft Farm, Bar-

clay Farmstead is listed on theNational Register of HistoricPlaces. Cahn emphasized the im-portance of preserving and pro-moting the town’s two historicsites.

“What makes us unique frommany other towns is we have ahistory that actually lives right inCherry Hill,” Cahn said. “It’s not

just about malls and shoppingcenters.”

One of the biggest goals forboth the township and Friendsthis year is to get residents tomake a trip to the farmstead. Anumber of new initiatives arebeing done to help achieve thisgoal.

This year, residents have theopportunity to get a Barclay 200Past-Port at farmstead events.Each month, there will be at leastone event highlighting a differentaspect of the farmstead. Resi-dents who bring a past-port to

each farmstead event can have itstamped. Residents who get theirpast-port stamped 12 times willreceive a commemorative prize.Some residents got their firststamps at last week’s kickoff cele-bration.

Residents also have a chance tocollect four commemorative post-cards. Each features one of four

The SunFor the last seven months, it ap-

peared the site of Subaru head-quarters along Route 70 would behome to approximately 300 resi-dential units under the agreementbetween the township and CherryHill Land Associates that pre-served Woodcrest Country Club.

Last Monday, all of thatchanged as township council ap-proved an amended agreementshifting the residential develop-

ment from the Subaru site to along-time redevelopment site.

Council’s amended agreementwith CHLA shifts a proposed 370-unit residential developmentfrom Subaru to the former Victo-ry Refrigeration site on Wood-crest Road. The Victory site wasdeclared an area in need of rede-velopment in November 2013.

Subaru was included in theagreement between the township

and CHLA shortly after the com-pany announced it was movingits headquarters to Camden. ErinPatterson Gill, director of policy,planning and programming forCherry Hill Township, said town-ship officials have taken a closerlook at both the Subaru and Victo-ry sites since the agreement wasapproved last summer. Gill said itwas determined the Victory sitewas more appropriate for residen-tial development.

“You have the train stationdown the street, you have direct

access to I-295, you’re right up theTurnpike,” Gill said about theVictory site. “Plus it’s an appeal-ing site for those commuting toPhiladelphia. We’re trying to at-tract young professionals to Cher-ry Hill. There’s not too manyplaces where you can walk to atrain station in South Jersey.”

Since the Victory site was de-clared a redevelopment site, theplanning board has been crafting

a redevelopment plan to trans-form the former industrial build-ings along Woodcrest Road. Thetownship is planning for thehousing component to be just aportion of the site. There are alsoplans for a possible hotel, corpo-rate facilities and other commer-cial space.

When the Victory site was firstdeclared an area in need of rede-velopment, the township talkedabout creating a corporate centeron the site.

“We want it to be a first-class

corporate campus,” township di-rector of communications Brid-get Palmer said in November 2013.“Something we really don’t haveis a marquee corporate center.”

Specific details on the redevel-opment plan have not been final-ized. Township officials said theplanning board will likely consid-er a formal redevelopment planfor the site in the coming weeks.

“The redevelopment plan forthe Victory Redevelopment site isstill in the works,” Gill said. “It’s

not finalized yet, but this will be acomponent of it. In the comingweeks, the plan will be put forthto the planning board.”

The residential component willconsist of no more than 370 totalunits. Gill noted the Victory site’sdevelopment will be more spreadout than at the Subaru site.

“It’s a larger site, so it’s goingto be less dense,” she said. “Eventhough it’s only going to occupy aportion of the Victory site be-

cause it’s larger, it’s going to beless dense.”The amended agreement does

not change the proposal of resi-dential developments at theHampton Road and Park Boule-vard redevelopment sites. Thosetwo sites were the others identi-fied in the agreement between thetownship and CHLA.

Right now, there are nochanges on the table for the Sub-aru property. Gill noted Subaru isstill occupying the site.

“It’s not a redevelopment site,”Gill said. “It’s zoned commercial.We don’t plan to change it.”

A representative from CherryHill Land Associates could not bereached for comment.

Swimming has always been a part of Jamie Platt’s life.

The Cherry Hill native had competed forWoodcrest and Barclay Farm swim clubs,Burlington and Camden County YMCA,Cherry Hill High School East and Susque-hanna University for more than a decade.

In that time, she was part of a record-set-ting relay team at the Cherry Bowl in 2001and a sectional championship team withCherry Hill East in 2009.

So when Platt’s college swimming ca-reer ended after her sophomore year due to

an injury, Platt wanted to find a way to stayinvolved in the sport.

“Being involved with swimming at theage of 4, I couldn’t just give up swimming,”she said. “So I stayed on as a team manag-er.”

Just five years later, Platt is back inSouth Jersey and is ready to coach one of the strongest swim clubs in the Tri CountySwimming Pool Association.

Sunnybrook Swim Club in Moorestownrecently hired Platt to take over as headcoach of its competitive swim team. Plattwill officially take over when preparationfor next summer’s season begins in May.

Platt can’t remember a time she didn’t

spend either in oraround a pool. Shebegan swimming at theage of 4 and soon afterwas competing for theWoodcrest Swim Clubin Cherry Hill and forthe Camden CountyYMCA.

For more than a

decade, Platt’s namewas in the Cherry Bowlrecord book. She was part of the girls’ 9-10medley relay team for Woodcrest in 2001.

f you sit on a school board or mu-

nicipal governing body, you’re en-

tering the part of the year that

probably causes you the most

headaches. It’s budget time. It’s time to

do the impossible: provide outstanding

service for little or no money.

A few years ago, Gov. Christie madeheadlines –and more than a few ene-

mies – when he slashed state funding

and eventually added a 2 percent cap

on tax hikes.

Since then, at least some of the

money has returned. Sometime this

month, the governor will release state

funding figures for this year.

But it’s safe to say that no district or

town will find itself rolling in dough.

Governing bodies will continue to face

decisions that involve reducing or

holding the line on services and/or

raising taxes. And we all love more

taxes, don’t we?

We already pay the highest property

taxes in the nation, so why not pay

more? One bright spot – some would

say the only bright spot – to come of

this is that many governing bodies

these days have made the budget

process open to the public.

“Transparent” is the watchword

today.

It’s a smart move to involve the pub-

lic – everyone from those who want to

cut taxes to the bone to those who

would like to see expanded services.

When the public is invited in, they

not only see the difficult choices lead-

ers have to make, but they also feel like

they have a voice. Leaders are listening

to them. Their input is valued. While

not everyone will be happy with everydecision, at least there is a sense of in-

clusion and “ownership” of the

process.

We encourage everyone to get in-

volved with their local budget process-

es this year. In most instances, there

will be hearings. Items will be posted

online.

It’s easy to offer your suggestions to

the people who eventually will make

the final decision.

And, chances are, your feedback will

be appreciated.

in our opinion

Budget timeIt’s that time of yea r again when tough decisions have to be made

Get involved

Think taxes are too high? Think serviceshave been cut too deeply? Now is the timeto make your voice heard. It’s budget sea-son, and most local governing bodies haveways to involve the public in the decision-making process.

In observance of MartinLuther King Day of Service, Res-urrection Catholic School stu-dents in preschool through eighth

grade were asked to bring certainitems to be included in a BlessingBag for Cathedral Kitchen. Bless-ing Bags are gallon sized Ziplocbags filled with supplies thatwould be useful to a homeless per-son.

Volunteers carry these bags intheir car, and when they see ahomeless person, they give themthe bag along with a blessing. Tomake the service project moremeaningful, students were en-

couraged to earn and use theirown money to purchase the as-signed items.

The finished bags each con-tained a box of Band-Aids, an in-dividual tissue pack, chapstick,wet ones, a comb, a pair of socks,a water bottle, a prepackagedsnack, a travel size shampoo, de-odorant, hand lotion, bar of soap,toothbrush, toothpaste and a cardfrom the students who prepared

the bag.The goal was to fill 100 bags,

but thanks to the generosity of

the students, they filled 129 bagsand had extra supplies to donateto Cathedral Kitchen.

The team set a Cherry Bowlrecord with a time of 1:13.05 andwas later named to the CherryBowl’s 50th anniversary team.

Platt continued to swim in highschool, competing in freestyleand individual medley races forthe Cougars. She would attendSusquehanna, where sheswitched roles from swimming tocoaching in her junior year.

Platt quickly developed a pas-sion for coaching. One of her fa-

vorite parts of working atSusquehanna was recruiting andkeeping track of high schoolswimmers.

“I would filter through and fileand read up on them,” Platt said.“I developed such a passionthrough that. It was interesting tosee what other kids were doingand how they developed.”

“Susquehanna was a fantasticprogram,” Platt added. “When Igot there, we never won a confer-ence championship meet. By thetime I left, we had won three.”

Platt loved coaching so much,she decided to take a job at home.In 2012, she began coaching at

Woodstream Swim Club in Marl-ton, a position she held for twoseasons. Shortly after graduatingfrom Susquehanna in 2013, Plattgot a job as an assistant coach forJuniata College’s women’s swim-ming team in Huntington, Pa.

After just one season at Junia-ta, however, Platt wanted to re-turn to South Jersey.

“I had to come home,” she said.“My grandfather was sick and Iwanted to be home with my fami-ly.”

Platt returned to Cherry Hill,landing a teaching job at Rosa In-ternational Middle School. Sheenjoys her position at Rosa andsaid teaching made her want tocontinue coaching at the youthlevel.

“It was then that I realized Iloved this age group,” Platt said.

Shortly after returning toSouth Jersey, Platt took the headcoaching job at Downs FarmSwim Club in Cherry Hill. Then,

in 2015, Platt took a second jobwhen she was hired as the headcoach for the YMCA of Burling-ton and Camden CountiesPhoenix Junior I Group. She washired after connecting with ChrisBrookover, the YMCA’s competi-tive swim director and a fellowCherry Hill resident.

Similar to her experience atSusquehanna, Platt said she haslearned a lot from Brookoverabout building a program.

“I have never worked with any-

one who loves swimming like heloves swimming,” Platt said.“He’s really built a program that’skid-centered.”

When the head coaching job atSunnybrook opened, Platt wasunsure if she should apply. How-ever, she credits Brookover withgiving her the extra motivation togo for the job.

“When the position opened up,it was Chris who said I would begood in that position,” Platt said.

“The more I thought about it, Ithought why not?”Platt’s new job is a big step up

from her position at Downs Farm.

In the Tri-County Swim League,swim clubs are divided based onskill level to allow clubs to com-pete with similarly skilled oppo-nents. Downs Farm competed inthe D Division of the Tri-CountySwim League last year. Sunny-brook, meanwhile, will be in theA Division this year, the highestdivision.

“Anyone who said they weren’ta bit nervous would by lying,”Platt said. “It’s a good program,and they’re moving up from B Di-vision to A Division. “

Despite the high expectations,Platt said she’s excited to coach atSunnybrook. She plans to takewhat she has learned at her previ-ous jobs to further strengthenSunnybrook.

“Being able to have a teamthat’s large, that wants to be com-petitive and wants to be like afamily is the thing I’m most excit-ed about this summer,” she said.
