Police Aid Bridgetons Code Blue

Officers from the Bridgeton Police Departmentplay an important and active role in BridgetonsCode Blue Program. From distributing supplies andequipment to regular visits to warming centers onnights when Code Blue is in effect, officers are vitalto the programs continued success.

On December 30, with a Code Blue in effect, offi-

cers on their own time visited Grace BethanyCommunity Church to work the 10 p.m. to 2 a.m.shift after donating a number of sleeping bags.

The Bridgeton Code Blue Program, started byBridgeton Mayor Albert Kelly and several local con-gregations, provides warming centers for home-less persons in the community to find shelter onfrigid nights during the winter months. Currently,St. Andrews Church (186 E. Commerce Street),Bethany Grace Community Church (31 N. PearlStreet), and Salvation Army (29 W. CommerceStreet) have agreed to serve as warming centers.

A Code Blue is initiated by the Mayor when tem-peratures are 25 degrees (or 32 degrees with precip-itation). Designated Warming Centers rotate on aweekly basis and are open from 6 p.m. to 6 a.m. onnights when Code Blue is in effect. To keep thewarming centers open, volunteers are needed tohelp oversee and supervise the facilities. Shifts arebroken into four-hour blocks (6 to 10 p.m./10 p.m. to2 a.m./2 to 6 a.m.). I

S urviving cancer is good fortune but comes with aprice. Individuals are always weakened physicallyand often psychologically. The existential impactcan create loneliness and anxiety, including survivor'sguilt. Then, there's the root fear of remission.

LiveSTRONG at the Vineland YMCA is a 12-week,small group program designed for adult cancer sur-vivors. It fulfills the important needs of supporting patients in the period between completing their can-cer treatment and the shift to feeling physically andemotionally strong enough to attempt to return to anormal life.

This program gives them the chance to regainhealth and helps them gain a more positive outlook,said Lisa Scheetz, chief operating officer at the Y.

The free program includes unlimited access to thetwice-weekly class and all Y facilities, including thepool and fitness center during the 12 weeks. Also, par-ticipants get exercise instruction and guidance, nutri-tion counseling, weekly group discussions and sup-port, and an opportunity to extend the program with a YMCA membership and to mentor new survivors.

The goals, according to the Y's Jerry Mentzer,engagement coordinator, are to help participants buildmuscle mass and strength, increase flexibility andendurance, reduce the need for therapy, and heightenself-esteem.

A while back, studies said cancer survivors shouldnot work out, said Mentzer. But current ones found,if the body's stronger initially, as it gets in our program,

Downtown Vineland { BY GARY HOLLOWAY, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, VDID / MAINSTREET VINELAND }

I

As the new Executive Directorfor Main Street Vineland, Imlooking forward to building onthe success the organization

has had over the years. To do this, I wantto learn from the past, focus on thefuture, and develop a plan that is good fordowntownone thats achievable andsustainable.

The Main Street Four-Point approachhas been mentioned in this column beforeand I believe that its a powerful tool tohelp revitalize downtowns by preserving their history, their culture, and theirarchitecture by helping businesses capi-talize on this revitalization effort. Hereshow I envision using this plan for each of the four standing committeesOrganization, Promotions, Design, andEconomic Restructuring. The committees

meet in rotation each month onThursdays, as indicated below, at theMain Street Vineland office, 603 E.Landis Avenue. You are invited to attendand get involved.

Organization Committee (meets thefirst Thursday at 4 p.m.) In order forMain Street Vineland to succeed, we needto develop partnerships with people inthe community. This starts by getting vol-unteers who are committed to the futureof their downtown involved with ourorganization. Ill be focusing efforts onrecruiting people and getting theminvolved with what interests them most.Well continue to do necessary fundrais-ing through successful events such as ATaste of Vineland and by partnering withbusinesses through sponsorships. Main

Street would not exist without the dedi-cation of its volunteers and the moneythat is contributed by people who want tomake a difference.

Promotions Committee (meets thesecond Thursday at 8:30 a.m.)We canpromote our downtown in many ways.Successful events such as the CruiseDown Memory Lane and the HolidayParade are great examples of how we canshowcase our downtown to thousands of people. Well continue these events andadd some others that we can discuss fur-ther as the committee hashes out thedetails. While these annual events areimportant, we also need to draw people tothe downtown every day. Ill be working hard with the City on developing a strate-gy to market the downtown and let peo-ple know that we have some great options

for shopping. We have so much to offerthe areas only Amish Market, as well asspecialty retail shops, restaurants, shoestores, music stores, jewelry stores, banks,professional services, and more.

Design Committee (meets the thirdThursday at 8:30 a.m.)The last severalyears have seen a lot of improvements tothe appearance of our downtown. I give alot of credit to those property ownerswho have spent their own money anddemonstrated an interest in improving their property. This will help to attractnecessary businesses and customers nowand in the future. Main Street Vinelandand the City have been allies in this effortand need to continue working together tomake necessary improvements. Its vitalfor our downtown to have a good appear-

ance, so we will continue to look atimproving the mini parks, cleaning thesidewalks, replacing old banners andsigns, and looking at other ways toimprove the visual appearance.

Economic RestructuringCommittee (meets the fourth Thursdayat 8:30 a.m.)The primary focus of thiscommittee is to build and maintain rela-tionships with property and businessowners and, working together, improvethe economic business climate down-town. I look forward to getting out on thestreets to meet the people who run thesebusinesses or own these properties andgetting their input and suggestions onthe future of our downtown. Ive metmany of the business owners already andhave had some great conversations andlook forward to meeting others I dont

yet know. Our downtown needs morebusinesses to add to the mix of what wehave already. Im excited to help theproperty owners find the appropriatebusinesses that can be sustainable nowand in the future.

***The prospects for 2014 look exciting

and I believe we can continue to makeimprovements to our downtown if we allwork together. I know we have had somesetbacks but that wont be my focus. As Isaid before, learn from the past and focuson the future. I

ACHIEVE PHYSICAL THERAPY ANDFITNESS

Repetitive postures and movement pat-

terns, and overuse movements that each indi-vidual performs on a daily basis may be theleading cause of muscle or joint dysfunctions.Professions such as secretaries, truck drivers,teachers, casino dealers, hairdressers, and/ornurses provide just an example of the occu-pations where people perform specific,repetitive movements. The effect of theserepetitive , day-in and day-out activities mayeasily lead to muscle and soft tissue imbal-ances which limit are mobility. In many of these cases, people experience aches and

pains, muscle tension, and even clicking inthe movement of certain joints. The typicalfirst response to these symptoms is to reachfor pain relievers, such as Tylenol or Motrin.These analgesic and anti-inflammatory medi-cines do well at masking the symptoms; how-ever, they are limited in their ability to cor-rect the source of the problem.

Real People, Real Help

A heart attack, a cancer diagnosis, an irregular heartbeat, three surgeries,chemotherapy and radiation treatments might get the best of some people,but not 65-year-old Ron McDonald. Look at him today and you would neverknow that the trim and fit Millville resident has battled three life-threateningmedical conditions in less than two year's time.

The Inspira Fitness Connection's PREP program played an essential rolewhile other factors also contributed during each of Rons recoveries. Themost important were his spiritual faith, the love and support from family andfriends, and his unwavering commitment to strengthen his body after andbetween his medical crises.

Cardiac rehabilitation was followed by two months in PREP and then theall-important regular visits to the gym. McDonald credits PREP with helpinghim rebuild his foundation. While working out in the specialized area of theFitness Connection, he felt he could always rely on the staff. Even after grad-uating, he and other PREP graduates found that they often made their wayback to the assisted area during their visits to the gym.

Ron is proof that perseverance and a positive attitude not only improveyour personal chance of success, but also encourage those around you to dothe same, said the program's coordinator, Brittany Raup.

Wayne Grimes is a 43-year-old Vineland resident who began his servicewith the US Armys fabled 101st Airborne Division in 1987. During his 20years in the military, he was stationed in Germany, Kentucky, and Iraq. Heenjoyed a high level of fitness during most of his 20-year career but towardthe end of his Iraq tour, he contracted a troubling medical condition requir-ing dialysis. Finally, in 2011, he got a diagnosis of Waldenstroms Disease, ablood cancer. The rigors of war also triggered the not-uncommon post-trau-matic stress disorder (PTSD).

The Vineland resident's chemotherapy ended in January, 2012. Hisstepson, an active duty soldier, told his dad about LiveSTRONG at theVineland YMCA.

His classes met on Saturday mornings and focused on participantsregaining the physical and emotional well-being that are key to the individ-uals new normal.

LiveSTRONG helps people get back what they lost through cancer,Grimes said. We talked about our ordeals, about what weve been through.We learned about healthy eating and fitness. We were evaluated, and ourprogress tracked in flexibility, stretching, and walking.

The Landis WillVintage Vineland { BY VINCE FARINACCIO }

The trial challenging Landis will put his three sons

allegiances and rivalries on view for all to see.

As the trial contesting the will of Charles K. Landis continued inDecember 1900, more witness-es gave accounts of the town

founders final years as if constructing acomplex collage that both revealed andmasked the truth about the man whosevision created Vineland. The most vividcontributions came from Landis three

sons whose allegiances and rivalries wereclearly on view in the Bridgeton court-room that December.

On the first day, Monte had accusedhis Aunt Matilda of influencing Landis toturn against him. Like his brother Monte,Richard had issues with his aunt andconveyed them with the same franknessas his brother. Citing his marriage toEmma Frambes as what brought on dif-ferences with his father, Richardaccused Matilda of disliking his wife andspeaking disparagingly of her withLandis. Another witness corroborated histestimony, saying that Richard wasforced to leave the household because hehad married a common woman.

Trial clippings in the VinelandHistorical and Antiquarian Society(VHAS) archives report that Richard alsoreferred to an incident he witnessedwhereby his father encouraged Monteand Charles Jr. to fight with knives. If

true, this event was not unlike the cir-cumstances Landis had set into motionwith his will. Charles Jr., a successfullawyer who had settled with his wifeMary and their children, Mary andGordon, in Sea Isle City, received aninheritance from his father. But his chil-drens inheritance originally had beenreserved for Monte. Moreover, CharlesJr. attended the trial in a triple capacityas witness, defendant and chief counselin the case against his brothers, intensify-ing an already adversarial situation.

Addie Judd, seamstress for the Landisfamily, testified that she noticed nounpleasant relations between Landisand his sons, a claim supported by testi-mony from house servant HenriettaThomas, but thought Miss Landis didnot treat James [Monte] as well as theother sons. Trial clippings in the VHASarchives report that Judd testified thatMonte was obliged to sleep in the bath-

room while his brothers occupied beds.However, Charles Jr. told the court that

his father was kind to all his sons andshowed no preference.

While much of the testimony focusedon family relationships, the lawyers forthe Landis brothers produced witnessesto confirm their claim that their fatherwas insane. Former Senator Philip Bakerrecounted an incident at a Sea Isle Citydinner at which Landis was speaking. He

said that after a comment was made byanother attendee, Landis attacked theman with a knife and had to be stoppedfrom going any farther. Charles Jr.countered that his father had no knife,had used no force and simply had cometo his aid when the man had accosted theyounger Landis, saying his father wasno good.

John Ring spoke of meeting Landis,who gave evidence of vivid hallucina-tions. T.J. Ware claimed that Landis hadtold him he hadnt seen Ring for a yearbut that Ware had witnessed them talking together shortly before that conversation.

Many accounts curiously border onthe type of testimony recorded by CottonMather at the Salem witch trials severalcenturies earlier in which any unusualaction on the part of the defendant wasconstrued as proof of witchcraft. Its pos-sible that some were trying to helpRichard and Monte secure an inheritance

while others may have seen this as anopportunity to discredit Landis withimpunity. Whatever the reasons, much of the testimony by non-family membersseems like trivial supplements to thefamilys backbiting accusations. But onebit of information did offer a stunning revelation.

On December 8, 1900, the Evening Journal reported the following: It was inevidence that Landis would never go intoa lighted room at night until the curtainswere drawn for fear someone wouldshoot him. He never retired without arevolver under his pillow and always car-ried one. The behavior was the result of his 1875 shooting of newspaper editorUri Carruth for which he was acquitted.It seems, however, that the strain of thedeed had taken its toll regardless of thelegal outcome and that the privacy of that state of affairs was now publicknowledge.
