in advance.
Rearranging the body clock is
a shock the first week, Vitella
said. The first week is a big week
of adjustment and practicing
makes it easier.
It is also important that stu-
dents know what to expect on the
first day of school. Many districts
often welcome students for a tour
or plan orientation events prior
to the big first day.
Officials at the Lenape Region-
al High School District host vari-
ous events prior to the start of
school, to ease freshmen in to the
transition and give them the op-
portunity to meet staff and stu-
dents from other towns who are
new to them.
And for upperclassmen, the
school offers SAT prep programs
and essay writing workshops to
help students know what to ex-
pect at the next academic level.
Elementary as well as high
school students are both suscepti-
ble to having anxiety about re-
turning to school. For example,
incoming ninth-grade students
could be anxious about being in a
new, larger school. We try to ease
these anxieties by allowing them
to come into the building before
school starts, Assistant Superin-
tendent Carol Birnbohm said.
Upperclassmen may be anx-
ious about their post-secondary
plans. All of these (programs) are
designed to support our students
to help them feel they can succeed
on standardized assessments or
get accepted to the college they
want to attend.
Parents, too, can play a large
part in easing the back-to-school
fears many students of all ages
have.
Birnbohm said parents should
be particularly aware of how
their children are feeling about
going back to school just prior to
starting.
If a teen is extremely anxious
about returning to school, we
urge parents to call their childs
school counselor to discuss their
anxieties to determine what the
school personnel can do for their
child, Birnbohm said.
Parents can also help make
their teen feel comfortable by
making sure they have all the
supplies they need to begin the
school year, or will get them as
soon as their supply list is made
available, she said.
For younger students, recog-
nizing any back-to-school fears
they may have and talking about
them together can be beneficial
for both parent and child.
Transitions are a natural part
of life and, for young children es-
pecially, they can be quite a chal-
lenge. As parents, we can do a lot
to ease their anxiety and make ex-
periences such as going back to
school actually positive, growth
moments, Waterfield said.
Many educators agree that
keeping an open dialogue be-
tween teens, parents and teachers
is also crucial to a successful
transition back to school.
Communication is the key, no
matter what the age of the child,
to starting the school year suc-
cessfully. Parents should discuss
any apprehensions their child
may have for the upcoming
school year with their teen,
Birnbohm said.
Parents should also let their
teen know that teachers, school
counselors and administrators
are there to help.

ment, Rafferty said. We are able
to split workshop costs. Because
Tabernacle already had full-time
people in each position, we are
saving on administration costs.
We are seeing a huge savings on
salaries and benefits, I would ap-
proximate at $125,000. We essen-
tially eliminated a whole person
and having to pay that salary and
benefits.
With the new shared service,
the districts believe, going for-
ward, the arrangement will be
very successful and already see
the public embrace of the
arrangement.
We have the ingredients to
make this successful, Rafferty
said.
This will work out very easily
to share individuals. We have
seen a positive benefit and a posi-
tive openness to this. We have a
climate that supports this with
the administration, the board,
teachers and the community.

Once again, county health offi-
cials are urging residents to take
precautions against mosquitoes.
Precautions include using mos-
quito repellent, wearing long
sleeves and long pants, and limit-
ing outdoor activity when mos-
quitoes are most active, which is
during dawn and dusk.
Residents should also clean or
remove any items on their per-
sonal property that can collect
rain or sprinkler water and serve
as a breeding ground for mosqui-
toes. These include clogged gut-
ters, flowerpots, bottle caps or old
car tires.
They should also completely
change water in birdbaths at least
once a week and should repair
window and door screens.
According to county Health Of-
ficer Robert Gogats, about one in
150 persons, or less than 1 per-
cent, of those infected with West
Nile virus will develop a more se-
vere form of the disease.
The elderly and immunocom-
promised are at higher risk of
more severe disease.
Symptoms of the more severe
form of West Nile virus include
severe headache, high fever, neck
stiffness, stupor, disorientation,
coma, tremors, convulsions, mus-
cle weakness and paralysis.
However, most people exposed
to West Nile virus will not display
any symptoms and some will
have mild symptoms including
fever, headache, body aches, skin
rash and swollen lymph glands.

accessed on the county health de-
partment website at

6 THE TABERNACLE SUN AUGUST 17-23, 2011
G
ambling news came out last
week. Some of it was good.
Some of it was bad.
In one city, it was reported that gam-
bling revenue surged 32 percent in
June.
In a different city, it was reported
that gambling revenue fell 6.5 percent
in July.
In the first city, gambling revenue
has climbed 8.5 percent in the first six
months of 2011.
In the second city, gambling revenue
fell 6.9 percent in the first seven
months of this year.
The first city is Las Vegas. The sec-
ond city is Atlantic City. Now, maybe
Vegas logs an atrocious July and
things even out, but, pardon the pun,
we wouldnt bet on it.
No, wed bet that, no matter what
happens now with the economy, anoth-
er recession, an invasion from outer
space, etc., Atlantic City will continue
to drop.
It doesnt have to be that way.
Indeed, Atlantic City dropped the
ball when it came to fortifying its
place in the gambling world. Long be-
fore surrounding states established
their own casinos, AC could have set
itself up as a destination resort. It
could have marketed itself as a gam-
bling/entertainment city, instead of
one casino trying to take patrons away
from the casino next door.
Theres still time to turn things
around, but does AC have the drive, vi-
sion and leadership to do it?
The big issue: People from around
the world bypass their local casinos to
visit Vegas. People have to want to by-
pass their local casinos to spend time
in AC, too.
That means coordinated marketing.
It means working together to create an
Atlantic City Experience. It means
taking a step back, looking at what
Vegas has done and then trying to
recreate some of that magic along the
Boardwalk.
Theres no time to waste.
Winners and losers
Guess which category Atlantic City casinos fall into
Falling behind
Do you think Atlantic City can turn
things around and become a destina-
tion vacation spot?
Was Casey coverage a question of race?
No way Casey Anthony gets
attention if she were minority
While doing research a few years ago for
my thesis, I read about a phenomenon
called missing white woman syndrome
basically a phrase for the disproportionate
amount of television and media coverage
involving victims that are attractive, inno-
cent and white, compared to the coverage
minorities receive. If Caylee Anthony were
a minority child, would she have received
the same press coverage?
I did some research on missing white
woman syndrome and was wondering if
this could possibly be going on in this trial
also, said Alan Hart, associate professor
at BCC. No way would a minority receive
the same public attention. The last time
that happened was with Tawana Brawley
with Al Sharpton. Yet John Benet, Eliza-
beth Smart, Natalee Holloway, we could go
on all day.
Whether race played a role or not, the
verdict was certainly a high point of con-
tention to the public. Many wondered with
all the circumstantial evidence that existed
against Anthony, how she could still be
found not guilty.

Old-fashioned slap on the wrist
stops Cinnaminson burglar
A 90-year-old woman in Cinnaminson
stopped a break-in by smacking the bur-
glars hand like an old school marm.
Police said the woman on South Fork-
landing Road reported that a black four-
door sedan drove around to the rear of her
home Friday. A man came to the door, and
when he received no response, he retrieved
a crowbar from his car and tried prying
open the back door.
The glass broke, and the suspect put his
hand in to unlock the door. Thats when the
elderly woman smacked his hand.
The startled would-be burglar ran for it.
The suspect did not steal anything, but
police have not located him. He is de-
scribed as black, with short hair and a
stocky build. Presumably he might also
have gone to Catholic school and been con-
ditioned by nuns with rulers.
Educationally Yours Blog: We
all have First Day Jitters
First day jitters. We all have them. Par-
ents have them a new teacher, a new year,
a new class. Kids have them a new
teacher, a new year, a new class. And of
course, teachers have them. Especially
newly-out-of-college, raring-to-go, first-year
teachers. And once parents
hear that their child has
that brand new teacher,
sometimes they get a little
more nervous.
Getting a first-year
teacher is bound to hap-
pen. In todays current edu-
cational climate, districts
are looking to hire new
teachers to keep the cost down and mold
their young minds. I admit that I would be
a bit nervous if one of my daughters were
assigned to a brand new teacher. Although
I was one myself a long time ago, the idea
of a new teacher working out their kinks
on your own child is a bit concerning.
However, if my child is assigned to a new
teacher, heres what I will try to keep in
mind.
Almost all first year teachers are young,
motivated and over wrought with excite-
ment! They are brimming with new ideas,
a need to be involved in anyway they can
and willing to go that extra mile. They are
mentored and advised through workshops
and professional development. Most have
wanted to be a teacher forever so their
dream is finally coming true.

The Tabernacle Sun
A foreboding question was lin-
gering among the vendors of the
River Walk Wine Festival in
Pennsauken on a recent weekend,
where $25 got you a backstage
pass to a variety of local wines
and, for some, an up-front look at
the troubles their vintners are ex-
periencing right now.
What changes will we see in
the New Jersey wine industry in
the coming months, and will wine
festivals like this even exist this
time next year?
Theres no doubt that changes
are on the horizon, and while the
chance of a total shutdown is
slim, the fact that its even a possi-
bility at all had many winery
owners at the festival nervous
and some downright angry.
Theres a legislative mess
going on in Trenton right now
that has our wineries in the
crosshairs. The problem dates
back to 2003 when a small group
of North Jersey residents and
some out-of-state wineries filed a
lawsuit, claiming it was unconsti-
tutional that New Jersey wineries
could ship wine to customers in
the state, but out-of-state wineries
could not. The state agreed and
in-state direct shipping was
banned in 2004.
But that wasnt the end. Since
then, winery owners ability to
sell directly to retailers and to
consumers through tasting
rooms and other outlets has also
come under fire for the same rea-
son. That was declared unconsti-
tutional last December.
Until a new law is passed, the
New Jersey Division of Alcoholic
Beverage Control isnt even issu-
ing any licenses to new wineries,
leaving a handful of vintners in
the state just sitting on their al-
ready-produced wine and waiting
for something to be done.
The ones that are really hurt-
ing because of this are the ones
who cant open new outlets, and
theres a lot of people we could
put to work if we opened up these
outlets, said Tony Valenzano, of
Valenzano Winery in Shamong.
What will become of N.J.
wine industry?

But thats minor compared to
the new wineries that have spent
hundreds of thousands of dollars
building their business, and
theyre unable to get a license to
begin operating.
Two bills are being tossed
around in the Legislature now to
resolve the matter, but a decision
was not reached before the sum-
mer recess. And now, just last
week, a Supreme Court judge is-
sued a stay in the case, which
gives the state until March 2012 to
make a decision on which law to
pass. Will it be a bill sponsored by
Sen. President Steven Sweeney?
Will it be a bill drafted by Assem-
bly Majority Leader Joseph
Cryan? Or, will the deadline pass
with no action, which would
place everything in the hands of a
Supreme Court judge and cause a
potential shutdown? There are a
few major differences between
the bills. Under Sweeneys, direct
shipping would be permitted (like
it is in 38 other states) and winer-
ies could maintain up to 20 out-
lets, which includes tasting
rooms. Under Cryans legislation,
direct shipping would not be al-
lowed; 15 outlets would be permit-
ted; and wineries would lose the
ability to directly distribute to re-
tailers. While it appears the ma-
jority of winery owners would
support Sweeneys bill, at this
point, many just want a bill
passed.
Any bill.
We just want our tasting
rooms to stay open, said Marsha
Gaventa, co-owner of Cedarvale
Winery in Logan Township.
Without our tasting room, were
nothing.
Gaventas husband is a fourth-
generation farmer of the land.
Im scared because there are
no guarantees, she said. The
winery is the future of our farm.
Cedarvale Winery wasnt even
set up at the festival in Cooper
River Park. Their winery isnt big
enough to have any outlets other
than the tasting room, and its not
even big enough to set up shop at
festivals like the River Walk.
Were just the little people,
Gaventa said. Most of us are
small businesses.
The only way they have to
reach customers is the tasting
room, so many factors of the
Sweeney and Cryan bills dont
even affect them. But no bill at all
certainly would.
I just hope and pray that the
Legislature gets their stuff to-
gether and drafts some legislation
so that we can stay open, she
said. I support any bill that lets
us stay open. Valenzano said he
finds it offensive that the Legisla-
ture hasnt fixed this issue by
now. Theyre going to take their
time, and thats that many more
jobs that wont be created that
would be otherwise, that much
less New Jersey wine that will be
sold and that much less farms
that will be supported through
our efforts, Valenzano said.
While he added he doesnt
think itll come to the point where
a Supreme Court judge will shut
down the states wineries, Valen-
zano acknowledged that it is a
possibility. Because of that, like
Gaventa, he just wants to see a
bill passed.
But, if he had to choose, he said
he would side with Cryans bill.
We dont care about direct
shipping, he said. We already
ship through the three-tiered sys-
tem, which weve been doing for
15 years. Most of our wine is sold
through local liquor stores. They
are our customer base.
The main supporters of the
Cryan bill are the states retailer
and wholesaler associations,
which believe direct shipping and
self-distribution could have a neg-
ative impact on their industry.
If they set up an amazon.com
of wine, the local liquor stores
could take a hit, Valenzano said.
Thats our customer base, and
we definitely are concerned about
our customers. Were just hop-
ing that something can be re-
solved so that the worst-case sce-
nario doesnt occur, which is a
shutdown, he said. We have to
be very sensitive. The last thing
we want to do is offend our cos-
tumers.
There were plenty of wine
growers present at the festival,
though, who want to see the
Sweeney bill passed and nothing
else. When youre a small win-

ery and your gallonage is small
like we all are at this point, we do
not have the profit structure and
gallonage yet to use distributors
to distribute our wine, said
Mark Carduner, of Silver Decoy
Winery in Robbinsville. Once
you get to a certain size, having a
distributor makes financial
sense. When you are small, you
are doing it all yourself.
Scott Donnini, co-owner of
Auburn Road Vineyard and Win-
ery in Pilesgrove, said his ability
to drive a handful of wine bottles
to the local liquor store is ex-
tremely important to him.
Youve got to have a Legisla-
ture that will recognize us for
what we are, a small business,
said Donnini, a former lawyer
and also in-house counsel for the
Garden State Wine Growers Asso-
ciation. Thats got to count for
something. The Legislature
should want to help us.
The problem is that the winer-
ies are not a political issue; no
one will win or lose an election
based on whether they saved or
killed the wine industry, Donnini
said.
That removes the expediency
to do something about us, he
said.
He added, though, that he be-
lieves Sweeney wants to make
this situation right and he thinks
his bill is a responsible compro-
mise.
It just makes sense to want to
help New Jersey wineries and not
attack them, he said. Despite a
bleak economy, wineries remain a
growing industry and a viable
tool in agritourism, which is a
booming market in New Jersey.
Just look at the River Walk festi-
val and the thousands who con-
verged on Cooper River Park for
the two-day event. The line at
Auburn Roads tent was so long
that Donninis wife had to repeat-
edly smack him with a towel to
get his attention and get him back
to work. But he was so impas-
sioned about what he feels is a po-
litical injustice that he didnt
want to end the discussion. The
same type of crowd could be seen
at every one of the 20-some tents.
We love our customers, Sil-
ver Decoys Carduner said. We
love growing our fruit in New Jer-
sey. Were committed to staying
here for a long time. We just need
our Legislature to let us keep our
doors open.
At the end of the day, we need
Trenton to stand up and protect
us, he said.
Trish Mazer, of Langhorne,
Pa., a patron at the festival,
summed up the whole problem
rather matter-of-factly.
Not only would it benefit
everyone, she said, but dont
they have more important things
to be thinking about?
