    An extensive outdoor sports fa-cility may be coming to Rob-binsville as soon as the summerof 2014, according to Sharbell De-velopment Corp. Executive VicePresident Tom Troy.

    Our timeline is to move for-ward very quickly, Troy said.

    Troy said Sharbell and EliteShowcase Complex, LLC havepartnered on a project that in-

    cludes both indoor and outdoorsports facilities, and hope to haveenough of the outdoor portion ofthe facilities finished by 2014 toattract a significant tournament,Troy said.

    The indoor facilities would belocated on Route 33 in the towncenter south area, Troy said,while the outdoor facilities wouldbe situated nearby on Rob-binsville Road.

    What were proposing here isthe development of an outdoor,

    primarily softball- but also soc-cer-related facility that wouldserve, in a great degree, some ofthe same constituencies that wewould tend to bring in for the in-door facilities, Troy told town-ship council on Oct. 11.

    According to Jim Barsalona, aprincipal with Elite ShowcaseComplex, the proposed indoor fa-cilities would be similar to theVirginia Beach Field House,

    which hosts tournaments, sportscamps, clinics and other events.

    The indoor complex would in-clude areas for a variety of sportsincluding volleyball, flag football,soccer, basketball, baseball andsoftball, Barsalona said. The com-plex would also have televisionsand a food and beverage area,and, like the Virginia Beach FieldHouse, would be available for spe-cial events such as parties, bene-fits and business functions.

    Troy stressed that tourna-

    ments at the outdoor facilitieswould be scheduled over two- andthree-day periods to minimize thedisruption caused by large vol-umes of people entering and exit-ing the area at one time, and saidthe company was still working onanalyzing the impact the com-plexes would have on the town aswell as designing ways to reducenegative effects.

    We are very much aware ofthe need to mitigate the impactsthat would come from this proj-

    ect, Troy said.Troy said the facilities would

    include fairly substantial land-scaping, as well as buffering andberms. The location of the indoorfacilities is also outside the sewerarea and is close to Buckley Lane,where residents have long dis-cussed with the township how toextend sewer lines without high

    New sports facility couldopen as early as 2014

    tion.I am also a suitor, I am a Thra-

    cian sailor, and Im a cyclops, Gi-achetti said. It goes back to thatancient Greek custom in plays ofthe Greek chorus becoming mul-tiple roles in the story and havingone central focus character.

    There is more than one antago-nist in the Odyssey, but one of themost unlikeable is Antinous, one

    of the suitors for the hand ofOdysseus wife Penelope, who,back in Greece, is still waiting forOdysseus 20 years after his initialdeparture to Troy.

    Antinous is played by seniorTyler Bowen, who said he washaving fun with the character.

    Im one of the main bad guysin this, which is kind of cool,Bowen said. This is my first realproduction here, and I got this

    major character right off the bat.Its a challenge because Im not abad guy at all and then I have tobe this incredibly angry jerk onstage. Its going to be a challenge,and its a great challenge, I likeit.

    Bowen said he has done someof the smaller shows that Rob-binsville High School holds everyyear, but like Sapp, this is his firstmajor production. Bowens otherroles in the production include aresident of the island of Phaeaciaand a sailor.

    The only two actors in the playwith just one part are those play-

    ing the roles of the goddessAthena and the title character ofOdysseus, but having only onerole doesnt necessarily makethings easier, according to An-drew Gart, who plays Odysseus inthe production.

    One thing I dont like aboutthe play is I have to memorize abajillion lines, which is a neces-sary evil if you want to have agood show, said Gart. Despite

    having won second place at athespian competition, Gart, a sen-ior, has never done a full-lengthperformance prior to this one.

    Sophomore year I did a one-act, which I fell in love with,Gart said.

    Being such a major characteris overwhelming at times, Gartsaid, but he doesnt regret takingthe part.

    I love it, its amazing, it gaveme another home within highschool to have, Gart said. I defi-nitely want to keep it my hobby, ithelped me get through highschool.

    Acting as a narrator for muchof the play is senior ShannonTully as Athena, the goddess ofwisdom. Tully performed in playsin seventh and eighth grades atPond Road Middle School, buttook a break for most of highschool, until drama and Englishteacher 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 Ithought, Ill be a senior, so whynot?

    The play deals with the themesof magic and the supernatural,but in a symbolic way, and with-out the use of complicated propsor special effects, which Tullysaid can be challenging.

    Its really raw, the whole stageis like a big jungle gym andtheres a lot of wood, Tully said.Theres a lot of work that re-quires us to use our bodies anduse ourselves on stage to projectourselves out and make ourselvesreally big.

    Helping Tully and the other ac-tors become their characters isthe job of costume designer Eliza-beth Sheehan, a senior at Rob-binsville High School, and an ex-perienced props and set designer.

    Designing costumes, Sheehansaid, is definitely the most chal-lenging behind-the-scenes jobshes 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 eachmajor 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 bethe most difficult part of the job.

    Thats probably been thebiggest challenge, because theshows Ive done in the past, its

    just been one time period, its ei-ther in the past or its contempo-rary, Sheehan said. It rangesfrom ancient Greek aspects tomaybe the 1900s to the end of the1940s.

    Some of the costumes will bepurchased and modified, Sheehansaid, while others, like the breast-plate on Zeus costume, will be

    What is Montessori and is it right for my child?

    Montessori education offersopportunities for children developtheir potential as they stepout into the world as engaged,competent, innovative, responsi-ble, and respectful citizens with alifelong appreciation of learning.Montessori students demonstratethat they think critically, workcollaboratively and with curiosity a skill set needed in the 21stcentury.

    Andrew McAfee, principal re-

    search scientist at the Center forDigital Business in the MIT SloanSchool of Management sites thevirtues of Montessori educationin the Harvard Business Reviewarticle, Montessori Builds Inno-

    vators. He states, There are stri-dent disagreements these daysover every aspect of American ed-ucational policy, except for one.Everyone thinks it would be greatif we could better teach studentshow to innovate. So shouldnt webe paying a great deal of attentionto the educational method thatproduced, among others, Larry

    Page, Sergei Brin, Jeff Bezos,Jimmy Wales, Peter Drucker, JuliaChild, David Blaine, and Sean P.Diddy Combs? They were all stu-dents in Montessori schools.

    The Montessori method, devel-oped by Dr. Maria Montessori inthe early 1900s, is an approach toeducation built around a childsintrinsic desire to learn. It encour-ages development of the wholechild physical, social, emotion-al, and cognitive in addition totheir academic progress.

    Just step inside a Montessoriclassroom and youll immediatelynotice how each room is uniquelydesigned and equipped to matchthe developmental level of thechildren. Classrooms feature low

    sinks, chairs, and tables and anarray of activities in language,math, science and geography; allneatly arranged on shelves readyfor the child's use. This intentionaldesign fosters independence, careof self and the freedom to makechoices. In elementary class-rooms, youre likely to see largertables for group work, interactive

    whiteboards, and areas for sciencelabs and manipulative materialsthat reinforce lessons and skills

    Montessori classrooms are in-tentionally warm and inviting andalways noted for their unclutteredspaces. Natural lighting and softcolors set the stage for activitiesthat are interactive, focused andcalm. There is a place for every-thing; which in turn conveys asense of harmony and order thatcomforts and inspires the child. Inthis safe and empowering environ-

    ment, students find joy in learn-ing. They learn the way they learnbest.

    Because the name Montessoriis so widely used, one might as-sume that all Montessori centers

    and schools are part of a franchiseor chain. However, this is not thecase as there is no central authori-ty that licenses use of the Montes-sori name. One way to distin-guish Montessori schools fromeach other is to look at the teach-ers credentials and AmericanMontessori Society accreditation.

    The American Montessori Soci-

    ety (AMS) is a professional organi-zation dedicated to supportingquality Montessori education andis a leading Montessori accredit-ing agency in the United States.When choosing a Montessorischool, it is important to distin-guish between member and ac-credited schools. AMS member-ship is open to any Montessorischool that agrees to comply withthe AMS Code of Ethics. However,a Montessori School that holds anAMS accreditation means the

    School has been through a rigor-ous evaluation process and meetsa well-defined standard of excel-lence. Only schools that have beenAMS full members for a yearor more are eligible for accredita-

    tion and only about 10% of 1,200AMS member schools are accred-ited.

    By choosing an AMS fully-ac-credited Montessori School foryour childs education, you canbe assured that the School andthese teachers adhere to thehighest educational standardsand will surely prepare yourchild for success.

    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 servingthe project.

    Lets not mince words, the project isgoing to need sewer, Troy said. One wayor another were going to have to get sewerto this project. There is no reason in theworld why we cant loop through and makethat sewer available to people who are be-

    tween where the sewer is now and where ithas to go.

    Barsalona compared the proposed out-door sports complex to the ESPN WideWorld of Sports complex in Orlando, Fla.,and assured residents that the facilities in

    Robbinsville, like those in Orlando, wouldbe well kept.

    Clean, neat, landscaped, berms, lots of

    grass and trees, bathrooms nice and cleanand kept well, Barsalona said.Other benefits of the project, according

    to Barsalona, would be economic growthfor the town, especially in the form ofrestaurants and hotels. The indoor andoutdoor facilities would provide 65-75 full-time and part-time jobs, Barsalona said. Heestimated the facilities could also bring be-tween $9 million and $16 million to the areaduring 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 createa problem if the town were to host a largetournament in 2014.

    Weve had a hotel search done, a nation-al search done, and they say there areenough hotels to facilitate 160 teams,

    Barsalona said. I guess to the question, isthere enough right now? I would say forthe first tournament in 2014 wed have to

    keep it with what we know we have andthen grow accordingly.Completing the majority of the outdoor

    facility by 2014 is a tight time frame, butdoable, Troy said.

    The next step, Troy said, is to begin for-mal meetings with county level officialsand begin the process of getting countyand state level approvals.

    Election letters

    This edition of The Sun will be the lastedition in which letters to the editorregarding the November election willappear. We will continue to post lettersto the editor online at our website up toelection day.

    Election 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 basicunderstanding 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 tomake 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 issueson 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 amajor 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 timeWith Election Day fast approaching, are you ready to cast an informed vote?

    Study, then vote

    Todays technology makes it possiblefor everyone to get a good idea ofwhere candidates stand on importantissues. Take the time to research thehopefuls before you make the trek tothe voting booth.

    Robbinsville Township andRoma Bank officials officiallybroke ground Wednesday, Oct. 3on the future site of the newTownship municipal offices, lo-cated on Route 33 in Town Center.

    Construction on the three floorbuilding adjacent to Roma BanksRobbinsville 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 truewin-win situation, RobbinsvilleMayor Dave Fried said. Any timeyou can own as opposed to rent-ing space, that is the ideal sce-nario. This gives us a ratable

    asset and allows for even betterallocation of taxpayer dollars inthe future.

    Township Council unanimous-ly approved a bond ordinance onAug. 23 authorizing Mayor Friedto purchase the 10,000 square feetof condominium space on thethird floor of Roma Banks sec-

    ond building in Town Center.The Township will issue $2.85

    million in bonds to complete thesale, which allows for all of its of-fices to be centrally located onone floor.

    Robbinsville Township hasbeen leasing space at 1 Washing-ton Boulevard since 2005.

    We are extremely proud to bepart of the growth of Rob-binsville, Roma Bank chairmanand Robbinsville residentMichele N. Siekerka said. AndRoma Bank is especially proud tobe the Townships partner.

    Mrs. Siekerka was joined at theOct. 3 groundbreaking by Roma

    Bank CEO and former five-termNJ Senator Peter Inverso, Rob-binsville Township Business Ad-ministrator Joy Tozzi, Director ofCommunity and Economic Devel-opment Tim McGough, CouncilPresident 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 thestate on business and was unableto attend.

    This space solves a need for usthat also will save taxpayers a sig-nificant amount of money, Mr.Witt said. As Mayor Fried saidthis really is a win-win situation.It allows the Township to own itsown space and brings jobs to Mer-cer County and to Robbinsville.This is a fantastic opportunity onso many levels.

    This has been a long timecoming, Mrs. Tozzi said. We are

    all very excited to partner toRoma Bank on this extraordinaryopportunity. This allows us tohave a ratable asset, which overthe long-term will be at a signifi-cant cost benefit to the entiretownship, and will give residentsa much more convenient place toconduct business.
