Let’s Talk Turkey

With two turkey drives in Cumberland County,
Thanksgiving just got better for hundreds more.

BY MATTHEW L A PORTE

T
he eighth annual Turkey Drive for the Salvation Army in Vineland returns this
Thanksgiving. A year after a record 1,200 turkey dinners were purchased and distributed,
the drive’s organizers are looking to top that record number this year. The cost of spon-
soring a turkey dinner is $20.
With Vineland’s high poverty and unemployment rates, some of its residents look to the
Salvation Army for a helping hand, says Steve Plevins, the organizer of the Turkey Drive each
year. Plevins started this annual Turkey Drive eight years ago and expects to be able to feed a
good amount of people this year.
“This year we are going to have a huge amount of people or families we have to reach through
the Turkey Drive, and we’re thinking we’re going to have at least 800 families we’re going to
reach,” says Plevins.
Last year was the biggest success for the Turkey Drive with 1,200 turkeys distributed to the
people in the community. Plevins says it was such a sight to see the Salvation Army fill up with
donations like it did.
“Last year what happened was we had this whole room filled up, like we had cars all the way
to the railroad tracks and it was packed,” says Plevins. “The director said, ‘I want to let you know

Rutgers Master Gardeners at Veterans Home
Rutgers Master Gardeners of Cumberland County presented their monthly horti-
culture activity to 15 residents at the Veterans Home in Vineland recently.
The participants created an autumn arrangement atop a mini pumpkin base
using unique seed pod forms from trumpet vine, hazelnuts, sweetgum tree, wisteria
and pine cones interspersed with faux leaves and mum stems.
Master gardeners (standing) Sarah
Tarpine, Marianne Bagliani and Jan
Lobiondo assist the participants as
they assemble their autumn arrange-
ments.
South Vineland United Methodist Church Anniversary
South Vineland United
Methodist Church recently cel-
ebrated its 150 Anniversary. In
attendance were many people
who have been a part of the
church over the years, some
coming from as far away as
Florida. South Vineland UMC
was established in 1868 and
a chapel was built at the cor-
ner of Grant Avenue and the
Boulevard. This was destroyed
in a fire set by an arsonist in
1874. A new church was built
and opened in 1875 at the corner of Sherman Avenue and the Boulevard. This is
now the Little Theater. The corner stone of the present church at the corner of
Main Road and Sherman Avenue was laid in June of 1949 with the consecration
service held in April of the following year.
Worship services are held each Sunday at 10:30 a.m., and all are welcome.

we have been able to witness a small piece
of the development in some of these rela-
tionships and its truly remarkable to see
the progress.”
“Thanks to champions such as these
who received Biggie Awards this year,
and years past, we are able to continue
to support our youth in a positive way by
placing a role model and friend in their
life and giving them a new level of support
to help build their self-esteem, accep-
tance, and overall personal growth” said

A HEALTHIER YOU
How do you choose a healthy
bread? A 100 percent whole grain is
a great start. The 100 percent claim
is essential, though, because bread
can be labeled as whole grain even
if it is just 51 percent. A whole grain
should therefore be listed first on the
ingredient label. Breads made from
whole wheat, whole barley, brown
rice, whole oats, or whole flax all
contain far better nutrition than white
bread, which is stripped of many
nutrients, including fiber. A good
whole grain bread should have 4-plus
grams of fiber. Packaged bread in
the United States is enriched with
B-vitamins and iron, which is import-
ant. However, bread in the U.S. tends
to also be quite large. Be sure to look
for bread with between 80 and 100
calories. Lastly, when looking at the
nutrition label remember that a little
sugar is needed to activate the yeast
in bread, but it should be listed near
to last. Corn syrup and trans fats
however, should be avoided.

This time of year, motorists should

L iving surrounded by the wilderness
of southern New Jersey as we do,
it’s not uncommon to hear, during
the latter part of October, “Jeez, I’m seeing a
lot more deer than usual.” White-tailed deer
tend to move around more at sunset and into
the early morning. And when the deer begin

During rut males tend to be less guarded
as they are on the prowl for mating oppor-
tunities. And when the males are searching,
the females are moving, too. Thus, it is not
uncommon to find them in your headlights
more often than usual. Deer are social and

White-tailed deer do not form harems like
elk. Males evidently will court a doe (fe-
male) for as much as a day prior to her 24- to
36-hour estrous and then breed repeatedly
during that time. So while other males are
focusing on their chosen mate, it offers
opportunities for unpaired bucks to pursue
different females. This is not to say deer are
monogamous. Not all females are in estrous
at the same time and fidelity is not an attri-
bute of white-tailed deer. NJ Fish & Wildlife
reports the peek breeding season for deer to
be November 10-20 in southern NJ. Younger
females breed into December.

Safe Travels!
New Jersey Fish and Wildlife offers
the following tips for drivers:
• If you see a deer, slow down and
pay attention to possible sudden
movement. Wait for the deer to pass
and the road to clear. Do not try to
maneuver around the deer.
• Pay attention to “Deer Crossing”
signs. Slow down when traveling
through areas known to have a high
concentration of deer so you have
ample time to stop if necessary.
• When traveling after dark, use
high beams—reflected by the eyes of
deer on or near roads—if no oncom-
ing traffic or vehicles are ahead. If
you see one deer, assume that others
are in the area. Deer typically move
in family groups during this time of
year and cross roads single-file.
• Don’t tailgate. The driver in front
of you might have to stop suddenly
to avoid hitting a deer.
• If a collision appears inevita-
ble, do not swerve as the deer may
counter-maneuver suddenly. Brake
appropriately and stay in your lane.
Collisions are more likely to be fatal
when a driver swerves to avoid a
deer and instead collides with on-
coming traffic or a fixed structure.
• Report any deer-vehicle collision
to local law enforcement right away.
• Always wear a seatbelt, as
required by law. Obey the state’s
hands-free device law or refrain from
using cellular devices while driving.

Vineland Schools
Participate in Scarecrow
Challenge
Rain could not dampen the spirits of
those attending Main Street Vineland’s
third annual Pumpkin Patch Party last
Saturday in downtown Vineland. The
winners of the “Scarecrow Challenge”
contest were announced at the event,
which was moved indoors to Landis
MarketPlace because of the inclement
weather.
The contest was open to Vineland
public, private, and parochial schools—
pre-school through 12th grade—as well
as individuals and civic organizations.
During the month-long contest, done
in partnership with the Vineland Board
of Education, the entrants created the
scarecrows, which were then mounted
on downtown lampposts.
The public could vote for their favor-
ite online at Main Street Vineland’s
Facebook page. The three top winners

to Get a Mammogram
Numerous U.S. health organizations recommend routine
screening mammograms beginning at age 40 — or younger
if you have a family history of the disease.
When it’s time for your yearly mammogram, look to the
breast health specialists at AMI/AtlantiCare. Our new Genius™
3D Mammography™ system is ideal for women of all ages
and breast densities. Three-dimensional mammography
provides more detailed images and improved screening
accuracy compared to standard two-dimensional technology.
AMI is recognized by the American College of Radiology as a

The annual Turkey Drive takes up most
of his Plevins’ time and requires a lot of ef-
fort from him as well as from the Vineland
Salvation Army and the volunteers.
“I started it in July and have worked
at least 20to 30 hours a week since July,
so quite a bit of work goes into this,” says
Plevins. “It takes a lot of time because you
have to meet with the donors. It’s just not
everything through the mail. Our Thanks-
giving drive is just a tremendous program.
It’s just a lot of hard work going to the
businesses, collecting the turkeys—but it’s
worth it in the long run because people get
a great Thanksgiving.”

Plevins says he is amazed at how far the
Turkey Drive program has come since he
started it eight years ago. Thanks to more
generous donors helping each year, the
Vineland Salvation Army is home to one
of the largest turkey drives in the state of
New Jersey, according to Plevins.
“We started with 300 turkeys at the
beginning and now we’re up to between
800 and 1,000,” says Plevins. It’s just an
amazing program; it might be 800 families,
it might be 1,000, but I think we checked
with other areas and I think we have the
largest turkey drive in the state.
The Turkey Drive doesn’t only entail
collecting turkeys and giving turkey din-
ners out to the people who need them, it’s
a much longer process, according to Plev-
ins. It requires a team effort from everyone
at the Vineland Salvation Army and the big
thing is getting the right people signed up.

PROJECT
THANKSGIVING
Project Thanksgiving, coordinated by
Alex Kaganzev, is back for another year
in Cumberland County. The project was
originally started 10 years ago and is
now working its way into three different
South Jersey counties—Cumberland,
Gloucester and Salem—according to
Kaganzev.
All three counties have specific col-
lection locations for the project.
• In Cumberland County, locations
include Bottino’s ShopRite stores
in Vineland, Millville and Bridgeton;
Bakers Place in Vineland, and Sun
Valley Pools in Vineland.
• In Gloucester County: Bottino’s
ShopRite in Sewell, the Ammons
ShopRite in Mullica Hill, the Amish
Markets in Mullica Hill, and the Franklin
Banks in Franklinville and Woolwich
Township.
• In Salem County: Franklin Bank in
Pilesgrove.
All donations collected will be given
to the Food Bank of South Jersey and
the Salvation Army. They receive the

location again this year.
The three main supporters for the
project this year include the American
Hellenic Educational Progressive
Association (AHEPA), the Boys and
Girls Club of Vineland, and Clayton
High’s National Honor Society Club.
Other supporters include Cruisin’ 92.1

Code Blue
Gearing Up
The program has 300-plus approved volunteers and
last year, they collectively gave 5,670 hours of help.
I t has been hard lately not to give a
passing thought to winter as autumn
settles in with temps down in the 40s
and even some upper 30s overnight. It is a
beautiful time of year as the leaves change
and the crisp chill in the air reminds us
that winter is near and that soon enough,
we’ll hunker down in the warmth of our
homes to enjoy the holidays, put the fin-
ishing touches on another year, and wait
out the long shadows until spring comes
our way again.
PEOPLE But if you’re one of the dozens of
OF homeless in our area, you’re not thinking
ACTION
about the leaves or the holidays or the
beauty of autumn. If you’ve heard of cli-
mate change or El Niño, you’re hoping it’s
real and that it might lead to milder tem-
peratures. Absent that, you’re just won-
dering how you’re going to survive from
day to day and maybe make it through
another winter.
That’s why Code Blue matters. Some
years we catch a break and the numbers of
Code Blue nights are few because tempera-
tures stay relatively mild, which basically
means anything above freezing. Other
years, we get absolutely hammered, as we
did last year with 45 nights of cold and
weather conditions that necessitated call-
ing a Code Blue for the county’s homeless.
However worn out we volunteers
might feel over the course of a winter,
we remember when it all started back
in the brutally cold December of 2013. A
Bridgeton man named Joseph Hanshaw
was attempting to either get a coat out
of the donation box behind the Salvation
Army building or to climb into the box
itself to try and stay warm. Either way, he
got stuck and died of exposure.
Out of that tragedy Bridgeton City gov-
ernment, the faith-based community, and
citizen-volunteers mobilized and started
Code Blue, utilizing a handful of churches
willing to open to their doors as warm-
ing centers on colder nights to allow the
homeless to find a little shelter from the
storm. It has grown much since then and
your donations make this success possible.
A Code Blue is called when overnight
temperatures are expected to be 32 degrees
with precipitation or 25 degrees without
precipitation. When Code Blue happens,
participating churches in Bridgeton,
Millville, or Vineland make space available
for an overnight warming center for the
homeless. Along with temporary shelter,
people can also get a hot meal.
So you know how much your donations
matter, consider that during last season’s
45 Code Blue nights, 4,300 hot meals
were distributed. Each Code Blue night
in Bridgeton, Millville, and Vineland,
requires a minimum 42 volunteers cover-
ing three shifts of three to five hours each.
The program has 300-plus approved vol-
unteers and last season, they collectively
gave 5,670 hours of help. Code Blue costs
$500 a night to operate—covering reim-
bursement to churches as well as equip-
ment and related needs.
Out of the Code Blue initiative grew
the nonprofit organization M25. In addi-
tion to coordinating and overseeing Code
Blue each season, M25 is also focused on
ending homelessness through a “Housing
First” approach. The idea is to help tran-
sition someone out of chronic homeless-
ness, which often involves long-term job-
lessness, substance abuse, mental health
issues, or similar issues as contributing or
causal factors; the first step is providing a
stable place to live.
This matters because so many pro-
grams condition their help on a homeless
person being clean and sober, having a job,
a permanent address, or some combination
of these. To my mind, such conditional
help is not meant to benefit the homeless
so much as to hedge against the possibility
that homelessness is a failure of character.
But all of that is to say that winter is
coming and it will hold its share of cold
and frigid nights and perhaps more than
a few inches of sleet and snow. When it
comes, we’ll be calling Code Blue so that
those among us who are homeless or
hungry or broken down by life will have a
place to go—shelter from the storm.
If you can and if you would, please
consider helping us either by volunteer-
ing or making a monetary donation to
help support these efforts. You can reach
M25 by visiting m25initiative.org or by
calling 1-844-625-4673. Whatever you
can do is greatly appreciated and may just
save a life.
 JERSEY REFLECTIONS
Vince Farinaccio

Camp Fever
Enoch Green probably remained in Deerfield for most
of October, but by the start of November he made his
way to Fort Washington to serve as chaplain.

T he Revolutionary War called on

many colonists to do their part
in the fight for America’s inde-
pendence, and that included Deerfield
Presbyterian Church pastor Enoch Green.
Like his former Greenwich student, Philip
Vickers Fithian, Green would serve as
chaplain at Fort Washington, New York in
1776 and meet the same fate as his pupil.
The details surrounding Green’s
time in the military are not as clear as
other moments in his life. According
to the Friends of the William Green
Farmhouse website, “In keeping with the
Presbyterian policy of complete separa-
tion of spiritual and secular matters, there
is no mention in the Sessional records…of
the Revolution…nor of the participation
of its members in the war. It therefore
follows that no comment was made of Mr.
Green’s departure for camp in his capacity
Washington deferred to the opinion of
Colonel Christopher Greene who, on the
advice of the Fort Washington command-
er, Colonel Robert Magaw, decided that
the stronghold could be defended. On

provide the British military the key to sep-

was unable to join the Third Battalion due
to illness and missed the opportunity to

 REAL ESTATE
The Evolution
of 3D Printing
3D printing is reimagining the way you see your
bathroom (and other spaces in your home).

When additive manufacturing technol- Dimension—an additive manufacturing

ogy—better known as 3D printing—was
first invented more than 30 years ago, it
was intended to make the product design
and manufacturing process more efficient.
At that time, 3D printing was used primar-
ily as a way to create prototypes to vali-
date and perfect product design, but the
inventor, Chuck Hull, had no idea how it
would change the way we live.
Today, 3D printing has evolved beyond
product prototypes only used by industrial
designers and engineers. Manufacturers
all over the world now rely on additive
manufacturing to produce final parts and
products that are purchased and experi-
enced by mainstream consumers across
the marketplace. This includes parts in
automobiles and appliances, medical and
dental implants, custom prosthetic limbs
and food, and has also become an import-
ant component in interior design, rein-
venting what you think is possible.
The 3D printed future
When Kallista, a division of Kohler,
sought to execute its new Grid Sink
Faucet design, the company quickly
realized the idea could not be executed
via traditional manufacturing methods.
Rather than sacrifice the design, the team
turned to 3D printing. Working with 3rd
services provider—Kallista employed a
layer-by-layer production approach on
3D Systems 3D printing technology to
manufacture the faucet to the exacting
specifications of the designer. The result-
ing faucet is significantly stronger and
more durable than if it had been produced
using traditional manufacturing methods.
By carrying through the designer’s vision,
Kallista created a faucet that shifted away
from excessive decoration and materials
to instead expose a design that boasts the
clean, understated lines of minimalist
form.
The result was a faucet that delivers
on its design without compromising func-
tionality.
Additional benefits of 3D printing
While 3D printing solutions are inspir-
ing designers everywhere, giving them the
opportunity to expand their creativity, 3D
printing also offers several other benefits
to companies and consumers, including:
•A single source of efficiency and
strength. “Some assembly required” is a
catchphrase synonymous with traditional
manufacturing and it is that assembly that
also exposes the end product to errors in
the pieces, poor construction and added
time to fabricate the object. However,
because 3D printed objects are made in
one solid piece, they solve many of these
issues. They are structurally stronger, free
of connection weaknesses and expertly
assembled to specifications.
• Environmental consciousness. While
traditional manufacturing takes raw
materials and trims them down to the
finished product, 3D printing builds the
desired piece by adding material as the
process goes along. This means it essen-
tially utilizes only the amount of material
necessary to create the object. The result
is less waste and a reduced environmental
impact.
• Faster results, favorable returns. The
3D printing process offers a new level of
accuracy and rapid part production with
the ability to reduce—and in many cases,
eliminate—material waste, which also
favorably impacts a project’s overall bot-
tom line.
Reimagining what’s possible
Since its creation, the Kallista Grid
Faucet has been nominated for and won
seven awards, including “Best In Show”
at the Kitchen & Bath Industry Show in
2018. It is proof that the technology of 3D
printing is reimagining the rules for man-
ufacturing and design. As 3D printing con-
tinues to evolve, it will push the boundar-
ies in product design and production. 3D
printing is transforming manufacturing
and the doors to what is possible are sud-
denly wide open.
