Hurricane Sandy tore through Lawrence Township on
Monday, Oct. 29, effortlessly ripping hundred-year old trees
out of the ground, downing dozens of power lines, and
leaving thousands of residents without power.
Because of Hurricane Sandy's predicted destruction,
Mayor Jim Kownacki declared a State of Emergency in
Lawrence Township as of 6 p.m. on Sunday, Oct. 28, which
remained in full effect until 6 a.m. on Wednesday, Oct. 31, at
which time the travel ban was lifted for all residents.
However, traveling became a bit of a nightmare in
Lawrence, since a good portion of the towns roads were in-
accessible because of the excess of downed trees and
power lines.
At first, a combination of major roads in Lawrence was
affected, including almost all of Route 206, but as of Thurs-
day, Nov. 1, the only road that remained inaccessible was
Route 206 between Franklin Corner Road and Cold Soil
Road. The traffic lights along US Route 1 in Lawrence
Township, which stopped working on Monday, Oct. 29, re-
mained out of service as of Thursday, Nov. 1.
The storms aftermath also caused a delay in municipal
services, postponing recycling, trash, leaf and brush collec-
tion, as well as court and the Zoning Board of Adjustment

The Julius and Dorothy Kop-
pelman Holocaust/Genocide Cen-
ter at Rider University will pres-
ent a screening of the 1989 docu-
mentary More Than Broken
Glass: Memories of Kristallnacht
on Sunday, Nov. 11 at 3 p.m. in the
Gill Chapel on Riders
Lawrenceville campus. Rider is
located at 2083 Lawrenceville
Road (Route 206 South). There is
no charge for the program, which
is featured as the Fourth Annual
Philip J. Albert Memorial
Kristallnacht Commemoration.
The 57-minute film, produced
by Ergo Media, chronicles the
Night of Broken Glass, or
Kristallnacht the evening of
Nov. 9, 1938, when Adolph Hitlers
Nazis publicly and outrageously
announced to the world that they
had declared open war on the
Jewish people. Through a series
of coordinated attacks in Ger-
many and sections of Austria,
Nazi supporters and civilians
ransacked synagogues and Jew-
ish-owned stores and buildings,
leaving countless smashed glass
windows in their wake.
Some 7,000 businesses and
more than 1,000 houses of wor-
ship were destroyed or damaged
in the attacks, which went unan-
swered by German authorities.
Ninety-one Jews were killed, with
an estimated 30,000 apprehended
and shuttled off to concentration
camps.
Through archival footage, pho-
tographs and interviews with wit-
nesses, More Than Broken Glass:
Memories of Kristallnacht forms
a sharp portrait of the time and
events.

profit organization HomeFronts
therapeutic art program, Art-
Space.
Fram, who is a regular volun-
teer at ArtJam, has been aiding
clients at ArtSpace for several
years. She assists with business
issues related to ArtSpace, such
as creating posters or deciding on
new businesses ideas. However,
her main focus is finding artists
for the program, since shes on
the Advisory Board for ArtSpace.
I go on field trips with
Ruthann [Traylor, ArtSpace di-
rector] and help collect art, she
said. This year, I was more pas-
sive because I had to contribute
pieces.
Fram, who was originally a
computer scientist, turned to art,
specifically glass fusing, after she
decided to start a family.
When I started my family, I
lost interest in computer sci-
ence, she said. So, after raising
my kids, I needed something to
allow me to be creative in a differ-
ent way, and this [glass fusing]
was it. I love the color and the
flexibility of it.
She explained how glass fusing
not to be confused with glass
blowing is a process where she
melts different pieces of glass to-
gether until discs of new glass in
different shapes are created,
which she then forms into ceram-
ic molds to give them their ulti-
mate shapes.
It was too expensive to set up a
glass blowing studio in my home,
so I found another way to work
with glass at home, which is glass
fusing, Fram said. I melt sheets
of glass together at 1,500 de-
grees.
Fram creates various pieces
that range from something as
small as a pendant to vessels as
large as sinks or lamps. She dis-
played a variety of her works at
ArtJam, including larger bowls
and plates, as well as smaller can-
dleholders.
Although Fram hasnt had any
professional form of training,
shes been constructing things for
herself ever since she was a child,
including her own clothes, beads
and posters, which drew her to

Higher education has many
benefits for individuals. People
who graduate from college earn
more throughout their careers,
and they are less likely to lose
their jobs during a recession. But,
most of us havent thought as
much about how higher educa-
tion helps us create and build the
kind of society we want.
Discuss this topic at the lec-
ture, Shaping Our Future: How
Should Higher Education Create
the Society We Want? at the
Lawrence Headquarters Branch
of the Mercer County Library
System on Saturday, Nov. 10 from
2 to 4 p.m. to explore the roles that
higher education should play in
improving American life and
strengthening our democracy.
In partnership with the Nation-
al Issues Forums Institute (NIFI),
the American Commonwealth
Partnership (ACP) launched a na-
tional discussion on higher edu-
cations role in Americas future.
The discussions in our communi-
ty will be moderated by Nancy
Kranich, a professor at the Rut-
gers University School of Com-
munication and Information.
Kranich has worked internation-
ally to advance libraries and is an
active proponent of dialogue, de-
liberation and community en-
gagement. She works closely with
the Harwood Institute for Public
Innovation and the Kettering
Foundation, including participat-
ing in the Deliberative Democra-
cy Exchange, and serving on the
board of its National Issues
Forum Institute.
If you are interested in being
part of this important discussion,
contact James Damron at (609)

Branch is at 2751 Brunswick Pike.
Higher education lecture planned
meeting on Oct. 29 (moved to Wednesday,
Nov. 7).
After the initial hit by Sandy, on Tues-
day, Oct. 30, 75 percent of the town was re-
ported to be without power.
On Thursday, Nov. 1, Township Manager
Richard Krawczun detailed how
Lawrences conditions improved and what
the town would be looking at in regard to
revitalization.
We know the same thing that the public
knows, he said. Theyre anticipating
Nov. 5. There has been some restoration to
some portions of the town, and as we see at
different times, some areas have been re-
stored, but the problem is, we dont have
any specific information about when it will
be 100 percent complete. The entire town
has been affected, and we have some neigh-
borhoods where some residents have
power, but either a few houses away or
across the street or a street or two away,
residents don't have power. So, we dont
have that specific information other than,
we do know at the height of the storm,
PSE&G had about 10,000 customers with-
out service.
Krawczun also detailed how there was
no extensive damage done to any public
buildings, but is unaware of how many
homes were damaged, if any.
We have some fallen trees on public
property, he said. Since theres no effect
on operations, that will be assessed at a
later time.
On Nov. 1, the township released a letter
to the community detailing the Federal
Emergency Management Agency's
(FEMA) services, specifically targeted to-
ward residents whose homes were dam-
aged during the storm. It detailed FEMAs
disaster assistance, which offers financial
or direct assistance to individuals and fam-
ilies whose property has been damaged or
destroyed as a result of a federally-de-
clared disaster, and whose losses are not
covered by insurance; more information
can be found at www.fema.gov/sandy.
While some housing assistance funds
are available through our Individuals and
Households Program, most disaster assis-
tance from the Federal government is in
the form of loans administered by the
Small Business Administration. Addition-
al forms of assistance offered by the Feder-
al government can be found on DisasterAs-
sistance.gov, the letter detailed.
Since the township was in its prelimi-
nary stages of restoration on Nov. 1, Kraw-
czun was unable to give an exact figure on
how much it may cost the town to clean-up

V
eterans Day traces its history
to the end of World War I.
Then known as Armistice Day,
Congress, in the mid-1950s, formally
made it Veterans Day. Its one of those
days of the year that has, or should
have, special meaning for every Ameri-
can.
The sacrifices made by the men and
women of the Armed Services are
well-documented. They protect the na-
tion every day. Without their service,
America isnt the land of the free.
We encourage everyone to not only
recognize veterans on this day, but also
to make a commitment to do some-
thing tangible in their honor.
There are numerous groups that
help veterans and their families, espe-
cially those who have fallen on hard
times. Volunteer for one of these
groups, or make a donation.
Or get involved in a different organi-
zation that is trying to better your com-
munity. Help to feed the hungry or ad-
vance research into a deadly disease.
Gather clothing and other items and
drop them off at a center that will use
them to help the less fortunate. Do
something to make a difference, to give
back to those around you who can use
a helping hand.
We are heading into the holiday sea-
son. Its the easiest time of the year to
get involved because there are so many
ways to give.
In the coming weeks, we invite
everyone who is holding a drive or
fundraiser to contact us with the de-
tails so that we can share them with
the entire community. Give us the days
and times, the drop-off locations and
the items requested, and well do the
rest.
And then we invite our readers to
jump in with generosity.
We can never say thank you too
many times to our veterans. We can
never fully repay them for what they
have done and continue to do for us.
But we can honor them by doing
what we can to make a difference in
our communities.
in our opinion
Honor veterans Sunday
Veterans Day a time to honor those who protect our freedom every day
Make a difference
Honor those who serve this Veterans
Day by making a tangible contribution
to your community.

art.
I had a general artistic incli-
nation, especially with clothing,
and I guess it was an extension of
that, she said. I felt I had an ap-
preciation of artistic methods. I
was very handy with my hands; I
loved working with the flame and
with colors, so it was a natural
progression to glass fusing.
HomeFront, which is dedicated
to ending homelessness in Mer-
cer County, runs the Artspace
program in its shelter in Ewing.
According to Traylor, ArtSpace
is an innovative program that
uses art as a tool to improve the
physical, mental and emotional
well being of HomeFronts clients
that began six years ago.
It was created as a safe haven
where people living in Home-
Fronts Family Preservation Cen-
ter are given the freedom to cre-
ate and express themselves while
going through difficult times,
she said. About 23 people from
HomeFront were in the show, and
around 100 people participate
with ArtSpace.
ArtJam began two years ago
and has been held in Palmer
Square both years, since it do-
nates an empty store for the event
to be held in.
Half of the proceeds from the
sales will go directly to ArtSpace,
and will be used to further the
program at HomeFront.
Aside from monetarily benefit-
ting ArtSpaces clients, Traylor
also detailed how the exhibit ex-
poses them to an environment
that they arent used to and gives
them a chance to exhibit their art
alongside many well known, ex-
perienced artists.
It gives them the opportunity
to exhibit with professionals,
she said. Its the untrained with
the trained; the self-taught with
the professionally taught. Thats
what makes it interesting.

ArtSpace or to learn how to get
involved, email Traylor at

Dignitaries tour school garden
On Thursday, Oct. 18,
Lawrenceville Elementary School
(LES) principal Judith Bronston
welcomed U.S. Rep. Rush Holt,
New Jersey Secretary of Agricul-
ture Douglas Fisher, and many
local and state dignitaries to tour
the schools garden in honor of
the second annual National Farm
to School Month.
Director of New Jersey Farm
to School Network Beth Feehan
and representatives from Edible
Jersey Magazine presented Prin-
cipal Bronston with an honorable
mention School Garden of the
Year Award. Participating spon-
sors of the school garden contest
include Whole Foods and Apple-
gate Farms.
The recognition ceremony in-
cluded remarks from Holt, Fisher,
educators, and farmers, high-
lighting the importance of grow-
ing and eating healthy food. Holt
and Fisher held a question and
answer session with the students
of LES.
The Farm to School programs
bring locally or regionally grown
fresh produce into schools, signif-
icantly improving nutrition for
children eating school lunches. In
2010, Congress approved legisla-
tion authored by Holt that pro-
vides $5 million in annual fund-
ing to kick-start Farm to School
programs like the one at LES.
Holt also led the effort in Con-
gress to designate October as Na-
tional Farm to School Month.
Further information is available
at farmtoschoolmonth.org.
Special to The Sun
United States Representative Rush Holt and Pat Dombroski talk
with third graders at Lawrenceville Elementary School (LES) about
what they like best about learning in the LES garden on Thursday,
Oct. 18.

the mess created by the storm.
However, he noted how its going
to start in the hundreds of thou-
sands of dollars.
We dont have anything
where there appears to be struc-
tural damage to roadways, so I
don't anticipate any roads in
Lawrence Township with ex-
tended periods of time that
they'll be closed, he added.
Because of the continued
power outages throughout
Lawrence, all schools and offices
remained closed throughout the
entire week after Sandy hit --
from Monday, Oct. 29 to Friday,
Nov. 2.
On Thursday, Nov. 1,
Lawrence Township Superin-
tendent Crystal Edwards issued
a statement detailing how the
school district was going to han-
dle the remainder of the school
year, since school was halted for
over a week.
"Since weve already used our
three snow/emergency days
built into the school calendar,
school will be in session on
March 22, April 1, and May 28,"
she said. "We also used two addi-
tional days this week, and many
of you suggested that we make
up the two days next week since
New Jersey Education Associa-
tion (NJEA) cancelled the NJEA
Teachers Convention. Thanks to
your suggestion and the quick
and prompt support of the
Lawrence Township Education
Association union leadership
(Jeff Berry, Barbara Levine, and
Bill Tucker) and our Board of
Education President (Laura Wa-
ters), we were able to jointly
agree that we will hold school
next Thursday and Friday, Nov. 8
and Nov. 9, to make up the two
additional days. Hopefully, we
will not have any extended chal-
lenges in opening school next
week.
As of Thursday, Nov. 1, parts
of Lawrence Township re-
mained inaccessible via Route
206, but were otherwise cleared.
Downed trees and power lines
were still a concern, and were
being diligently assessed.
Residents who have questions
related to structural damage
done to their homes during Hur-
ricane Sandy are advised to con-
tact the Lawrence Township
Construction Office by calling
(609) 844-7056.
