Kiwanis Club donates to The Women’s Theater

 

PARSIPPANY — The Kiwanis Club of Greater Parsippany Foundation recently donated to “The Women’s Theater.”  Shown above is Kiwanis Foundation President Mimi Letts, Women’s Theater founder Barbara Krajkowski and Kiwanis Foundation Treasurer Steve Dickens.

The Women’s Theater Company is located at  The Parsippany Playhouse, 1130 Knoll Road, Lake Hiawatha. For more information call (973) 335-3038 or click here.

Girl’s Room by Joni Fritz is about a young ballet dancer about to break into the big time, but has another kind of break – an accident that could end her career. This charming new comedy about three generations of lively women, the lies that bind them together, and the truths that tear them apart will develop into a laugh-filled evening wrapped in a moving rollercoaster of emotions.  Performance dates are March 11, 12, 13, 18, 19, 20;  Friday and Saturdays at 8:00 p.m.; Saturday and Sundays at 3:00 p.m.

Three generations of women—all quirky, funny, emotional —with a great sense of the ridiculous. All three actors must have ability to do fast-paced comedy.

Katie: A ballet dancer (age: early 20’s):  An only child. Serious and dedicated to her dancing from an early age. Ethereal in appearance—can be alternately very childlike or very adult, depending upon the situation. Very smart with a dry, ironic wit.

Marilyn: Katie’s mother (age range: approximately late 40’s to very early 50’s): A former dancer who gave it all up to have a child. She is the only child of Florence, who she has tried to please her entire life, without much success. Devoted to her own daughter. Warm, giving, naïve, easily embarrassed, a real people-pleaser.  (Must be able to move well, as a dancer, during dance sequence.)

Flo: Kate’s grandmother (age range: Late 60’s to early 70’s):  Bawdy, sharp and no-nonsense.  A real “pistol”. Calls them as she sees them. Street-smart, self-involved, a former “card shark”.  Flo needs to always be the center of attention – and whatever the stakes, must always win.

Kiwanis Club of Greater Parsippany meets Thursday mornings at 7:15 a.m. at Empire Diner, 1915 Route 46. For more information, click here.

Free Short Stack of Pancakes at IHOP

On Tuesday, March 8 pancake lovers in Parsippany will once again flock to IHOP, 792 Route 46 to enjoy one free short stack of buttermilk pancakes in celebration of the brand’s annual National Pancake Day. Now in its eleventh year, IHOP restaurants nationwide will give away millions of free pancakes from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. and ask guests to leave behind a voluntary donation for their local Children’s Miracle Network Hospital, The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, Shriners Hospital for Children and other local charities.

In addition, for a $10.00 raffle ticket you can enter to win a 39 inch high definition Visio flat screen television, courtesy of Parsippany Focus. All money raised will be donated to Children’s Miracle Hospital. The drawing will be held at 6:00 p.m. on Tuesday, March 8.

“Every pancake we give away has a purpose on National Pancake Day. Through the generosity of our guests and the hard work and commitment of our team members, we will help fund life-saving treatment and care for children in need,” said Mo Abdelhadi, co-owner Parsippany IHOP. “On behalf of everyone in the IHOP family, we are so grateful to our guests who have turned this into such an incredible event that truly makes a difference in the lives of these kids.”

In what has become a cultural phenomenon, over the last 10 years, National Pancake Day has raised $20 million for meaningful local charities.  Last year alone, IHOP restaurants served 6.6 million free pancakes—which would have created a stack nearly 19 miles high—and raised $3.5 million for children’s charities.

In 2016, IHOP aims to raise another $3.5 million. All donations collected will remain in the local communities where they are raised and will be used to fund life-saving equipment, research, community outreach events, educational tools, and much more.

This year, in keeping with the focus on bringing neighbors together to help the community, local members of Kiwanis International and its affiliated clubs, including Key Club and Circle K, will join volunteers from the charities to help spread the message in the restaurants that every donation matters.

National Pancake Day has extended its influence beyond U.S. borders to countries such as Mexico, Canada and the Philippines. For the third consecutive year, IHOP restaurants in Canada will participate in the fundraiser by supporting Children’s Miracle Network. Additionally, IHOP locations in Mexico will once again raise money for Asociación Mexicana de Ayuda a Niños con Cáncer (AMANC). Funds raised by IHOP restaurants in the Philippines will benefit The Kythe Foundation.

Prior to National Pancake Day, participating IHOP restaurants supporting Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals will also sell “Miracle Balloons” for $1 and $5. The balloons will be available for purchase beginning February 1 through March 8. Guests who purchase a $5Miracle Balloon will receive a $5 discount coupon that can be used during their next visit to IHOP. Restaurant locations that are supporting Shriners Hospitals for Children and The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society will offer similar programs.

Please pray for Noah …

PARSIPPANY — On Thursday, March 3 at approximately 11:00 a.m., Noah Lorencovitz, 13,  had collapsed and was unresponsive at Central Middle School. Noah is in the eighth grade.

 

Emergency Personnel immediately began treating Noah upon their arrival. Par-Troy Emergency Medical Services and Saint Clare’s Paramedics transported Noah, with police escort, to Morristown Medical Center.

He was transferred to Columbia Presbyterian Medical Center on Friday and still remains in critical condition.

“Noah’s condition continues to improve a little each day, but we have a long road ahead and still lots of unanswered questions”, said his mother, Jennifer Lorencovitz.

“We know we have a lot of friends and family near and far who want to do something to help. First of all, we ask that you continue to keep him in your thoughts and prayers. We truly believe that has helped him along so far” she continued.

“We also welcome you to create a voice memo on your phone or tablet and email it to skb9003@nyp.org. In the voice memory, state your name, and tell him a funny/favorite memory of him, any impressions, a joke anything that you think will make him smile. The staff at Columbia Presbyterian Memorial Hospital will create a playlist of all the recordings and play it for him over and over. We think the familiar voices will provide more healing and comfort for him to help bring him home sooner,” said Mrs. Lorencovitz.

If you aren’t too tech savvy, you can also send a card to: New York Presbyterian, Morgan Stanley Children’s Hospital, Columbia University Medical Center, 3959 Broadway 6 Tower, Room 659C, New York, New York 10032, Attn: Shannon Meland (re: Noah Lorencovitz).

Route 46 road work will affect traffic

PARSIPPANY — New Jersey Department of Transportation (NJDOT) officials announced daytime and evening lane closures on approximately two and a half miles of Route 46 for the start of a resurfacing project in Parsippany.

 Starting Monday, March 7 from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. and again tonight from 9:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m. and continuing during off-peak hours and weeknights until late summer of 2016, NJDOT’s contractor, Schifano Construction Corp. is scheduled to temporarily close lanes and shoulders along Route 46 eastbound and westbound from Fox Hill Road in Mountain Lakes to Columbus Way. Initial project work will consist of sign installation and utility work. Milling and paving work is expected to start within a few weeks.

The $3 million state-funded resurfacing project will maintain at least one travel lane in each direction at all times to minimize the impact to motorists. Lane closures will be during off-peak hours. There will be temporary ramp closures with signed detours during overnight hours.

The Project is expected to be completed by late summer of 2016.

Variable message signs and detour signs are being utilized throughout the project limits to provide advance notification to motorists of all traffic pattern changes associated with the resurfacing project. Throughout the project, NJDOT will provide information before upcoming road or ramp closures.

The precise timing of the work is subject to change due to weather or other factors. Motorists are encouraged to check NJDOT’s traffic information website www.511nj.org for real-time travel information and for NJDOT news follow us on Twitter @NJDOT_info.

 

Republican Gannon will Freeze own Pension

Republican Gannon will Freeze own Pension

MORRIS COUNTY — Republican candidate Jim Gannon, who retired in 2008 as a Member of the Police and Firemen’s Retirement System (PFRS) from his 25-years of service as a Boonton and Boonton Township Police Officer, and the Morris County Prosecutor’s Office, with an annual pension of $78,160, will file paperwork with the State of New Jersey to freeze that pension and collect only his salary as Morris County Sheriff if successful in the June primary and then elected to a full-term in November.

Under N.J.S.A. 43:3C-3, Gannon’s decision to freeze his pension will also require him to give up a $60,000 payout to his beneficiary (his daughter) in the event of his death, something Gannon called “being penalized for doing the right thing.” He urged lawmakers in Trenton to introduce legislation to fix it and said doing so could incentivize others to freeze their pensions while serving in elected office.

After his career in the public sector, Gannon continued his law enforcement and security career as a member of the FBI’s elite Joint Terrorism Task Force and then as Global Head of Security Risk at Novartis. Gannon said that with Census Data showing the per capita income of a Morris County resident at $48,814 and Morris County household at $98,633, it didn’t feel appropriate to him to accept both a state pension and Sheriff’s salary that would potentially put his income at over $200,000 a year. Gannon will defer to the Freeholder Board to set his salary within the range allowable by law.

“Make no mistake, I believe law enforcement officers and firefighters earn their pensions – these men and women leave their families at home and put their lives on the line every day to keep us safe,” said Gannon, who reached out to the New Jersey Division of Pension and Benefits and confirmed that his pension can be temporarily frozen while he serves as Sheriff, and then restarted, without retroactive payments, after he leaves office. “But, for me personally, getting two checks funded by taxpayers to do just one job didn’t seem right. I want voters and taxpayers to know that running for Sheriff isn’t about the money for me – it’s about keeping our county safe and secure.”
