During rehearsals for the play The Odyssey at Robbinsville High School, members of the cast use bamboo to row Odysseus boat, while
goddess Athena (played by Shannon Tully) watches from above.
Raven Players to perform The Odyssey
By JULIE STIPE
The Robbinsville Sun
The play The Odyssey, may
be based on the ancient Greek
poem, but in the production by
Robbinsvilles Raven Players, it
has more than a few modern
touches.
We have a girl playing soli-
taire on stage, we have dancing,
we have a lot of weird things,
said Robbinsville High School
senior Justin Giachetti.
The play is an adaptation by
playwright Mary Zimmerman of
the famous Greek epic by Homer,
and features a spare stage setup
and a stylized and often humor-
ous take on the famous poem that
does not shy away from flip-flop-
ping between time periods.
Although it does take place in
ancient times, its based off the
19th century and the early 20th
century, so its very mishmash.
Its like ancient Greece set in the
Victorian era, Giachetti said.
Giachetti plays Poseidon, the
god of the ocean, whose goal in
the play is to thwart Odysseus at-
tempts to get home to Greece after
fighting in the Trojan War.
Odysseus has upset the god of the
sea by stabbing Poseidons son, a
Cyclops, in the eye, and now must
deal with the gods vengeance.
Like nearly every other student
in the play, Giachetti plays more
than one character in the produc-

An extensive outdoor sports fa-
cility may be coming to Rob-
binsville as soon as the summer
of 2014, according to Sharbell De-
velopment Corp. Executive Vice
President Tom Troy.
Our timeline is to move for-
ward very quickly, Troy said.
Troy said Sharbell and Elite
Showcase Complex, LLC have
partnered on a project that in-
cludes both indoor and outdoor
sports facilities, and hope to have
enough of the outdoor portion of
the facilities finished by 2014 to
attract a significant tournament,
Troy said.
The indoor facilities would be
located on Route 33 in the town
center south area, Troy said,
while the outdoor facilities would
be situated nearby on Rob-
binsville Road.
What were proposing here is
the development of an outdoor,
primarily softball- but also soc-
cer-related facility that would
serve, in a great degree, some of
the same constituencies that we
would tend to bring in for the in-
door facilities, Troy told town-
ship council on Oct. 11.
According to Jim Barsalona, a
principal with Elite Showcase
Complex, the proposed indoor fa-
cilities would be similar to the
Virginia Beach Field House,
which hosts tournaments, sports
camps, clinics and other events.
The indoor complex would in-
clude areas for a variety of sports
including volleyball, flag football,
soccer, basketball, baseball and
softball, Barsalona said. The com-
plex would also have televisions
and a food and beverage area,
and, like the Virginia Beach Field
House, would be available for spe-
cial events such as parties, bene-
fits and business functions.
Troy stressed that tourna-
ments at the outdoor facilities
would be scheduled over two- and
three-day periods to minimize the
disruption caused by large vol-
umes of people entering and exit-
ing the area at one time, and said
the company was still working on
analyzing the impact the com-
plexes would have on the town as
well as designing ways to reduce
negative effects.
We are very much aware of
the need to mitigate the impacts
that would come from this proj-
ect, Troy said.
Troy said the facilities would
include fairly substantial land-
scaping, as well as buffering and
berms. The location of the indoor
facilities is also outside the sewer
area and is close to Buckley Lane,
where residents have long dis-
cussed with the township how to
extend sewer lines without high

tion.
I am also a suitor, I am a Thra-
cian sailor, and Im a cyclops, Gi-
achetti said. It goes back to that
ancient Greek custom in plays of
the Greek chorus becoming mul-
tiple roles in the story and having
one central focus character.
There is more than one antago-
nist in the Odyssey, but one of the
most unlikeable is Antinous, one
of the suitors for the hand of
Odysseus wife Penelope, who,
back in Greece, is still waiting for
Odysseus 20 years after his initial
departure to Troy.
Antinous is played by senior
Tyler Bowen, who said he was
having fun with the character.
Im one of the main bad guys
in this, which is kind of cool,
Bowen said. This is my first real
production here, and I got this
major character right off the bat.
Its a challenge because Im not a
bad guy at all and then I have to
be this incredibly angry jerk on
stage. Its going to be a challenge,
and its a great challenge, I like
it.
Bowen said he has done some
of the smaller shows that Rob-
binsville High School holds every
year, but like Sapp, this is his first
major production. Bowens other
roles in the production include a
resident of the island of Phaeacia
and a sailor.
The only two actors in the play
with just one part are those play-
ing the roles of the goddess
Athena and the title character of
Odysseus, but having only one
role doesnt necessarily make
things easier, according to An-
drew Gart, who plays Odysseus in
the production.
One thing I dont like about
the play is I have to memorize a
bajillion lines, which is a neces-
sary evil if you want to have a
good show, said Gart. Despite
having won second place at a
thespian competition, Gart, a sen-
ior, has never done a full-length
performance prior to this one.
Sophomore year I did a one-
act, which I fell in love with,
Gart said.
Being such a major character
is overwhelming at times, Gart
said, but he doesnt regret taking
the part.
I love it, its amazing, it gave
me another home within high
school to have, Gart said. I defi-
nitely want to keep it my hobby, it
helped me get through high
school.
Acting as a narrator for much
of the play is senior Shannon
Tully as Athena, the goddess of
wisdom. Tully performed in plays
in seventh and eighth grades at
Pond Road Middle School, but
took a break for most of high
school, until drama and English
teacher Alison Sussman persuad-
ed her to try out for the Odyssey.
She said shed fail me in Eng-
lish if I didnt, Tully said. She
was kidding, obviously, but I
thought, Ill be a senior, so why
not?
The play deals with the themes
of magic and the supernatural,
but in a symbolic way, and with-
out the use of complicated props
or special effects, which Tully
said can be challenging.
Its really raw, the whole stage
is like a big jungle gym and
theres a lot of wood, Tully said.
Theres a lot of work that re-
quires us to use our bodies and
use ourselves on stage to project
ourselves out and make ourselves
really big.
Helping Tully and the other ac-
tors become their characters is
the job of costume designer Eliza-
beth Sheehan, a senior at Rob-
binsville High School, and an ex-
perienced props and set designer.
Designing costumes, Sheehan
said, is definitely the most chal-
lenging behind-the-scenes job
shes held so far.
I had to come up with a cos-
tume plot that says where wed be
getting this stuff, Sheehan said.
Am I making it, am I altering it,
or are we buying it or renting it
we have a lot of different op-
tions.
Sheehan drew sketches of each
major character in the play, de-
signing some costumes to look an-
cient Greek, and others as mod-
ern interpretations of a charac-
ters personality. Designing cos-
tumes for several time periods,
Sheehan said, has proved to be
the most difficult part of the job.
Thats probably been the
biggest challenge, because the
shows Ive done in the past, its
just been one time period, its ei-
ther in the past or its contempo-
rary, Sheehan said. It ranges
from ancient Greek aspects to
maybe the 1900s to the end of the
1940s.
Some of the costumes will be
purchased and modified, Sheehan
said, while others, like the breast-
plate on Zeus costume, will be

What is Montessori and is it right for my child?
Montessori education offers
opportunities for children develop
their potential as they step
out into the world as engaged,
competent, innovative, responsi-
ble, and respectful citizens with a
lifelong appreciation of learning.
Montessori students demonstrate
that they think critically, work
collaboratively and with curiosity
a skill set needed in the 21st
century.
Andrew McAfee, principal re-
search scientist at the Center for
Digital Business in the MIT Sloan
School of Management sites the
virtues of Montessori education
in the Harvard Business Review
article, Montessori Builds Inno-
vators. He states, There are stri-
dent disagreements these days
over every aspect of American ed-
ucational policy, except for one.
Everyone thinks it would be great
if we could better teach students
how to innovate. So shouldnt we
be paying a great deal of attention
to the educational method that
produced, among others, Larry
Page, Sergei Brin, Jeff Bezos,
Jimmy Wales, Peter Drucker, Julia
Child, David Blaine, and Sean P.
Diddy Combs? They were all stu-
dents in Montessori schools.
The Montessori method, devel-
oped by Dr. Maria Montessori in
the early 1900s, is an approach to
education built around a childs
intrinsic desire to learn. It encour-
ages development of the whole
child physical, social, emotion-
al, and cognitive in addition to
their academic progress.
Just step inside a Montessori
classroom and youll immediately
notice how each room is uniquely
designed and equipped to match
the developmental level of the
children. Classrooms feature low
sinks, chairs, and tables and an
array of activities in language,
math, science and geography; all
neatly arranged on shelves ready
for the child's use. This intentional
design fosters independence, care
of self and the freedom to make
choices. In elementary class-
rooms, youre likely to see larger
tables for group work, interactive
whiteboards, and areas for science
labs and manipulative materials
that reinforce lessons and skills
Montessori classrooms are in-
tentionally warm and inviting and
always noted for their uncluttered
spaces. Natural lighting and soft
colors set the stage for activities
that are interactive, focused and
calm. There is a place for every-
thing; which in turn conveys a
sense of harmony and order that
comforts and inspires the child. In
this safe and empowering environ-
ment, students find joy in learn-
ing. They learn the way they learn
best.
Because the name Montessori
is so widely used, one might as-
sume that all Montessori centers
and schools are part of a franchise
or chain. However, this is not the
case as there is no central authori-
ty that licenses use of the Montes-
sori name. One way to distin-
guish Montessori schools from
each other is to look at the teach-
ers credentials and American
Montessori Society accreditation.
The American Montessori Soci-
ety (AMS) is a professional organi-
zation dedicated to supporting
quality Montessori education and
is a leading Montessori accredit-
ing agency in the United States.
When choosing a Montessori
school, it is important to distin-
guish between member and ac-
credited schools. AMS member-
ship is open to any Montessori
school that agrees to comply with
the AMS Code of Ethics. However,
a Montessori School that holds an
AMS accreditation means the
School has been through a rigor-
ous evaluation process and meets
a well-defined standard of excel-
lence. Only schools that have been
AMS full members for a year
or more are eligible for accredita-
tion and only about 10% of 1,200
AMS member schools are accred-
ited.
By choosing an AMS fully-ac-
credited Montessori School for
your childs education, you can
be assured that the School and
these teachers adhere to the
highest educational standards
and will surely prepare your
child for success.

Santinos Day celebration planned for Nov. 1
Santinos Pizza & Restaurant
will celebrate its fourth annual
Santinos Day this year on Nov.
1, which is not only All Saints Day
but it is also the birthday of San-
tino Bottoni, patriarch of the Bot-
toni clan. He passed away at age
97 in March, 2009, just six months
before Santino's Pizza & Restau-
rant opened, and the restaurant is
named in his honor. Every year
Santinos celebrates him; al-
though he passed away, he is still
with the family in spirit.
Each year on Santinos birth-
day, no matter what day of the
week it falls on, the restaurant
has a family style five course set
menu with an Italian accordion
player to serenade the tables.
(That was Santinos favorite kind
of music).
Its a wonderful event and San-
tinos customers look forward to
it every year. It is also a day to re-
member loved ones who have
passed. Santinos Pizza & Restau-
rant invites everyone to celebrate
Santinos Day with the Bottoni
family.

costs to the township or residents.
Troy said the proposed project could
help solve this problem by allowing resi-
dents to hook up to the sewer line serving
the project.
Lets not mince words, the project is
going to need sewer, Troy said. One way
or another were going to have to get sewer
to this project. There is no reason in the
world why we cant loop through and make
that sewer available to people who are be-
tween where the sewer is now and where it
has to go.
Barsalona compared the proposed out-
door sports complex to the ESPN Wide
World of Sports complex in Orlando, Fla.,
and assured residents that the facilities in
Robbinsville, like those in Orlando, would
be well kept.
Clean, neat, landscaped, berms, lots of
grass and trees, bathrooms nice and clean
and kept well, Barsalona said.
Other benefits of the project, according
to Barsalona, would be economic growth
for the town, especially in the form of
restaurants and hotels. The indoor and
outdoor facilities would provide 65-75 full-
time and part-time jobs, Barsalona said. He
estimated the facilities could also bring be-
tween $9 million and $16 million to the area
during the week of a large tournament.
Are there enough hotels, is the ques-
tion, Barsalona said.
Councilwoman Sheree McGowan asked
whether the scarcity of hotels might create
a problem if the town were to host a large
tournament in 2014.
Weve had a hotel search done, a nation-
al search done, and they say there are
enough hotels to facilitate 160 teams,
Barsalona said. I guess to the question, is
there enough right now? I would say for
the first tournament in 2014 wed have to
keep it with what we know we have and
then grow accordingly.
Completing the majority of the outdoor
facility by 2014 is a tight time frame, but
doable, Troy said.
The next step, Troy said, is to begin for-
mal meetings with county level officials
and begin the process of getting county
and state level approvals.

Election letters
This edition of The Sun will be the last
edition in which letters to the editor
regarding the November election will
appear. We will continue to post letters
to the editor online at our website up to
election day.
E
lection Day is less than two
weeks away. Are you ready to
cast your vote? Do you know
where each of the candidates stands
on the issues important to you?
If not, its not too late.
Todays technology makes it relative-
ly easy for voters to get at least a basic
understanding of political candidates
and their positions on the issues.
Want news coverage? A lot of the
stories that have been written can still
be found on news organizations web-
sites.
Want to get information straight
from the candidates? At least in the
bigger races, they have websites of
their own. Now, we all have to take
what we find at candidates websites
with a little skepticism. After all, its
their website. And they are going to
make the best of it.
Still, one usually is able to get a good
idea of what someone will do if he or
she is elected and be able to compare it
to his or her opponent.
Whats most important is to get as
much information as possible before
entering the voting booth. Dont cast a
vote without understanding the issues
on the table and what each of the can-
didates has to say about those issues.
In many, if not most races, there are
clear differences between those hoping
to win on Election Day. Your votes will
impact your government.
The presidential election naturally
attracts the most attention, but dont
forget about local elections, too.
While more people traditionally
show up at the polls when there is a
major office up for grabs, chances are
your local municipal governing body
or school board will have more of an
impact on your everyday life. Property
taxes, government services such as po-
lice, fire, street repair and the well-
being of your school system all are in
the hands of your local leaders.
So take a few minutes to get to know
the candidates who want your vote.
Then be sure to show up and cast your
ballot.
in our opinion
Decision time
With Election Day fast approaching, are you ready to cast an informed vote?
Study, then vote
Todays technology makes it possible
for everyone to get a good idea of
where candidates stand on important
issues. Take the time to research the
hopefuls before you make the trek to
the voting booth.

Robbinsville Township and
Roma Bank officials officially
broke ground Wednesday, Oct. 3
on the future site of the new
Township municipal offices, lo-
cated on Route 33 in Town Center.
Construction on the three floor
building adjacent to Roma Banks
Robbinsville headquarters is ex-
pected to be completed by Janu-
ary, 2014.
This is a big day for our Town-
ship and for Roma Bank a true
win-win situation, Robbinsville
Mayor Dave Fried said. Any time
you can own as opposed to rent-
ing space, that is the ideal sce-
nario. This gives us a ratable
asset and allows for even better
allocation of taxpayer dollars in
the future.
Township Council unanimous-
ly approved a bond ordinance on
Aug. 23 authorizing Mayor Fried
to purchase the 10,000 square feet
of condominium space on the
third floor of Roma Banks sec-
ond building in Town Center.
The Township will issue $2.85
million in bonds to complete the
sale, which allows for all of its of-
fices to be centrally located on
one floor.
Robbinsville Township has
been leasing space at 1 Washing-
ton Boulevard since 2005.
We are extremely proud to be
part of the growth of Rob-
binsville, Roma Bank chairman
and Robbinsville resident
Michele N. Siekerka said. And
Roma Bank is especially proud to
be the Townships partner.
Mrs. Siekerka was joined at the
Oct. 3 groundbreaking by Roma
Bank CEO and former five-term
NJ Senator Peter Inverso, Rob-
binsville Township Business Ad-
ministrator Joy Tozzi, Director of
Community and Economic Devel-
opment Tim McGough, Council
President Ron Witt and Council-
man Dennis Shennard. Also rep-
resenting Roma Bank was Execu-
tive Vice President Keith Peri-
coloso and Director of Communi-
ty Relations Kelly Yaede.
Mayor Fried was out of the
state on business and was unable
to attend.
This space solves a need for us
that also will save taxpayers a sig-
nificant amount of money, Mr.
Witt said. As Mayor Fried said
this really is a win-win situation.
It allows the Township to own its
own space and brings jobs to Mer-
cer County and to Robbinsville.
This is a fantastic opportunity on
so many levels.
This has been a long time
coming, Mrs. Tozzi said. We are
all very excited to partner to
Roma Bank on this extraordinary
opportunity. This allows us to
have a ratable asset, which over
the long-term will be at a signifi-
cant cost benefit to the entire
township, and will give residents
a much more convenient place to
conduct business.

Zeus is played by senior Bruce
Sapp, who also plays a blind poet
and a cyclops. As the overseer of
all that goes on in the world, the
character of Zeus spends most of
the play perched on a rustic wood-
en structure on one side of the
stage.
Its kind of a hes always
watching type thing going on,
Sapp said. Im basically there for
the whole play except for two
scenes.
The play is Sapps first, but hes
hooked, and hopes to do more act-
ing before he graduates.
I came out, I auditioned, I was-
nt really expecting such a large
part, Sapp said. If I could sing, I
would definitely do the musical,
but Im not that great of a singer.
But Im definitely going to do the
smaller shows. I am having the
time of my life.
