With 100 days in office under his belt, Mayor Chuck Cahn said he is ready to take on what’s next in Cherry Hill. When campaigning for office last year, Cahn promised to take a line-by-line look at the municipal budget and said he has begun to make changes where necessary township wide. “That budgetary review, a long and in-depth process, is well underway and has already sparked initial changes,” Cahn said. “In the coming months, we will continue to develop ways that Cherry Hill can change government and identify potential savings.” One way to lessen the tax burden for residents is to use grant funding. The township applied for more than $700,000 in recreation, public safety, public works and community-development grants since the beginning of the year. year. So far, Cherry Hill has been awarded more than $320,000 in grants. Cahn said the township also

East meets West in baseball By KYLE SULLENDER Special to The Sun For the first time in the 2012 season, Cherry Hill East and West’s baseball teams met on the diamond on April 15, at Campbell Field in Camden, home of the Camden Riversharks.
season high school baseball game. At least 150 people filled the lower sections of Campbell field. Brenden DelMonte, a senior for the Lions, started the game with an eight-pitch walk, during which he worked a full count and then had four-straight pitches fouled off by Cougar Cougar lead-off lead-off man Rob Rob
The first run was scored in the bottom of the second. Taylor, now facing the bottom of the order, hit the first batter, followed by a line drive into left against outfielder Matt Giampetro. Then junior shortstop Brad Machinski slapped a ball into right for a base hit, driving in
East was coming coming off a hard loss just days before to Powhatan, losing 6-5, and looked to rebound against cross-town rival Cherry Hill West. On paper, the teams matched up well, with East entering the game at 5-2 and West at 6-1. Both had shown strong pitching to this point in the season, and each team had demonstrated an ability to produce staggering run totals. The Lions had shown on April 2, however, that giants fall hard when they lost to Eastern High School 15-2. The Cougars, on the other hand, were yet to lose by more than a single run. Because of the school rivalry and unusual location for the game, the turnout was far more than you’d expect for a regular
Taylor. After that, the first sign of struggle for both young teams showed. Zach Iannarelli failed to produce on a sacrifice bunt when he popped up to DelMonte. West then committed an infield error, to allow the base runner to advance and put catcher Jesse Gold on first. Delmonte’s early struggles ended though when pitcher and clean-up hitter Kurt Taylor popped up to the pitcher, and Taylor was unable to beat the throw back to second. Taylor came out strong in his opening inning, allowing a leadoff hit to Nick Trivigino Trivigino then settling to retire the next three batters.
the first two runs; he would go on to score on a ground ball hit by Trivigino, putting West up 3-0 headed into the third. DelMonte settled into his lead and remained on the mound for the rest of the game. Striking out seven in the final four innings, he didn’t allow a single hit throughout the game. He proved to keep his composure in front of the large crowd on a hot spring afternoon. “The plan was just to throw strikes and make my team back me up,” DelMonte said after the game0 “I didn’t even know it was a no-hitter until the sixth inning – you don’t want to jinx it.” West won, 10-0, with the game called early in the bottom of the sixth.

Now, three Washington Township Townsh ip residents take the t he stage in Mainstage Center for the Arts’ (MCA) production of “Brighton Beach Memoirs” at Camden County College April 27 and 28. The production centers on the observations of 15-year-old EuEugene Jerome (Jake Horner of Cherry Hill), who dreams of baseball and girls. His reality involves involves living in a lower-middle class neighborhood, Brighton Beach, New York, with an overworked dad, overbearing mom, arrogant brother, an aunt, plus two cousins.

I think the most rewarding part of this t his experience for me is that all of these wonderful people have welcomed me into their perfor ming family.” Though Kaufield is new to the stage, he’s played an important role as a member of Mainstage’s board of directors for three years. years. Kaufield’s connection with Mainstage began many years ago, when his son, John, now a theatre major at Bucknell University, was involved in its performing arts programs. Mucciarelli is also new to performing with Mainstage; however,, she brings a lot of theatre exer perience with her. She has acted since elementary school and is a veteran of nightly comedic theater and musicals in Las Vegas. “I'm beyond excited to play Nora. I was very much like her at
A Good Man Charlie Brown. “I am very blessed to be working with this talented group of artists. Each one of them, from the most experienced to the least experienced, is bringing such a heart and realness to their roles.” In addition to Kaufield, Figueras, Mucciarelli, and Horner, “Brighton Beach Memoirs” features Debra Faye of Cherry Hill as Eugene’s mom, Kate; Cathy Fichera Fichera of Mantua as Aunt Blanche; and Elisabeth Siegel of Cherry Hill as cousin Laurie. “Brighton Beach Memoirs” runs April 27 and 28, 8 p.m. Dennis Flyer Theatre, Lincoln Hall, Camden County College.

Brothers Eugene (Jack Horner of Cherry Hill, sitting) and Stanley Jerome (Brendan Figueras of Washington Township, standing) are always up to something, much to the chagrin of overworked parents Kate (Debra Faye of Cherry Hill, left) and Jack (John Kaufield of Washington Township, right) in ‘Brighton Beach Memoirs.’

Literary program invites parents into their children’s classrooms Fifth-grade Bret Harte Elementary teacher Rose Anne Noll started a program this year to help bring the Cherry Hill community into the classroom. The enrichment program invites parents to facilitate book groups with the students. Parents come in once a week to meet with their book groups. Students were taught how to use the reciprocal teaching method based on the research of Palincsar and Brown (1986). This method helps students focus on specific reading strategies that proficient readers use to help them comprehend what they are reading. Students teach this method to the parents, so the group can use it as an organizational method to discuss their books. Parents provide the students with rich background knowledge while the students share their own thinking about the book with the parents. As a result, both parents and students are enriched by this literary experience. Students see adults as readers

COMIC-CON.” Join us for an afternoon as the library’s lower level is turned into a haven for all things comic, anime, gaming and more. The Cherry Hill Public Library Teen Department has had much success with its Comic Book Club and Anime Nights over the past couple of years. It was time to step it up a notch by offering a longer, larger event open to teens from all over the th e South Jersey. “This is going to be a great opportunity for teens to meet new people that share their common interests,” said Michelle Yeager, CHPL teen librarian. “A lot of times, comic conventions have pricey admission fees and we wanted this event to be as accessible as possible, which is why it’s free.” The Comic Book Club members have helped plan this fourhour event and will volunteer their time to help run some of the activities which include Intro to D&D, Karaoke, Cosplay Dating Game, Retro Gaming, a Japanese Game Show, Dance Dance Revolution, Trivia Contest (with prizes) and a Comic Photo Booth. There will also be tables reserved for trading card games, so bring your stash for a pick-up game or two. Local invendors, Stormwatch Comics West Berlin and The House of Fun in Oaklyn, will also be on hand selling comics and collectibles. Cherry Hill Public Library is located at 1100 Kings Highway North.
