campers are allowed to talk about their loss – a subject often
taboo in the real world where people don’t get it, and are
uncomfortable hearing about it. Healing CirclesSM also
work together to do trust and team building activities.
Validation from peers – At camp, kids get a chance to not
only share the story of their loss in their own words, but just
as important, they get to hear other kids’ stories as well.
They receive validation in what they think and feel, support
each other and quickly learn that they are not alone.
Opportunities to say goodbye and remember loved ones
– Most kids did not get the opportunity to say goodbye to
their loved ones. Funerals are designed for adults to say
goodbye, but there is often no official venue for kids. Our
memorial service does this very thing. The campers sing
songs, read poems, do skits, and more, in tribute to their
loved ones. Parents and guardians are encouraged to attend.
We also provide opportunities for our campers to remember
their loved ones throughout the weekend through writing,
art and group activities.
Tools to help them after camp – Grief never goes away,
and we recognize that kids will have tough days outside of
camp. We work to prepare our campers for the tough times
that will come, and give them tools to help make those days
more manageable. We discuss and model healthy coping
skills, including ways to stay connected to loved ones
through the years.
FUN – Kids often become miniature adults after experi-
encing the death of a loved one. Comfort Zone Camp allows
kids to get back to being kids again, and have fun! There are
times for kickball, football, hiking, arts and crafts, s’mores,
songs, games, and more.
Founder Lynne Hughes lost her mother at age 9 and her
father at age 12. She understands first hand the isolating
feelings and struggles that a grieving child experiences.
After working with the organization, Motherless Daughters,
Lynne and her husband Kelly, decided to open Comfort
Zone Camp. Ten years later, CZC is a place where kids feel
safe, they can have fun, they can openly talk about their
loved ones and their feelings. After camp, kids leave camp
with lasting friendships and a new community of support
that will be there for them year after year—the Comfort
Zone Camp community.
Please Join Comfort Zone for their 4th annual New York
area fundraiser and 10th Birthday Celebration, Wish Big.
This November 12th at Tribeca Rooftop 6:30pm-10:30pm.
RSVP at www.comfortzonecamp.org
To support Comfort Zone in your community, please
visit www.comfortzonecamp.org and learn how to invite
someone to camp, become a volunteer, or contribute a dona-

Change
By Harlin Parker
I
t’s true. Change is not easy. We humans are somehow
hardwired to be cautious of change. After all, even with
the most meticulous plan, we may think we know what
will happen but deep down inside we know that something
could go awry and we’ll be worse off than we were. That’s
so even when we know we have to change. And if there is
one thing we’ve learned from this Great Recession, we
know we can’t keep doing what we’ve been doing in the
same way. We know that here in New Jersey, with our mul-
titude of municipalities, school districts, commissions,
authorities, departments, and you-name-it, we are overbur-
dened with government. We literally cannot afford this
anymore. We know, at least most of us do, that how we cur-
rently structure and operate our government just isn’t work-
ing and we must, must make some long overdue adjust-
ments.
But still, change can be scary, and people of good will
have differing opinions as to what makes sense, and what
doesn’t. And, of course, the entrenched interests, including
those people who belong to the “we-have-always-done-it-
this-way” club, are part of the problem, not the solution. So
while this will not be easy or quick, I am sure it is possible
to bring about the changes we need and, well, we just don’t
have any choice. There is no storm that will blow over, and
the sun will come out again, and we can go back to the way
things were.
New Jersey’s municipalities, including my own home,
Washington Township, are caught in a structural problem
that, left unattended, continues to inevitably push up prop-
erty taxes, push down the amount and quality of local serv-
ices, and produces the kind of haphazard development we
see all around us. Things are so out of control that we are
currently witnessing tens of thousands of people leaving
New Jersey even though they’d prefer to stay. This is mad-
ness, is it not? Who’s next to leave? You? Clearly, we need
to fix things. And we need to go about it in as conscien-
tious, eyes wide open, mature and (dare I say?) intelligent a
manner as possible. A good bit of courage will help too.
Just last month, Committeeman Tracy Tobin retired from
his seat on the Washington Township Committee after 27
years of service. 27 years. Think about that. How did you
go about your own business 27 years ago? In my office, we
all used IBM selectric typewriters. And “cc” actually meant
“carbon copy.” Much has changed over the past 27 years in
how we all go about business. But in New Jersey, not all
that much has changed as to how municipalities go about
their business.
The recent series of articles in the Daily Record high-
lighted the challenges that confront us as we look to tackle
New Jersey’s crushing tax burden. Solutions were offered
that include tax base sharing, regionalization and consolida-
tion. All excellent ideas (and yes, ones that I’ve been push-
ing for a long time). But what have we gotten over the
years? The great ballyhooed “inter-local service agree-
ments,” often referred to as “shared service agreements” are
timid, small steps that fall far short of the kind of compre-
hensive, long term solutions we need. Shared service
agreements are short term, usually only a year or so, and are
subject to the whims of new mayors or council or commit-
tee members. They’re ad hoc and scattered. Washington
Township has such agreements with Califon for police serv-
ice and municipal court services. We had such agreements
with The Chesters for emergency dispatch service until that
was recently ruined. We have one with Chester Township
for financial officer services and we’re contemplating one
for health department services. Oh, and we’re apparently
talking with Tewksbury about something as well.
Unfortunately, this is the kind of scattershot, ad hoc, short
term way of doing business that, while possibly better than
the days when each municipality had to have its own of

Community Gathers to Give Three T’s

By Kathryn Davis
U
nder a beautiful, cloudless September sky, over fif-
teen hundred people walked the perimeter of the
Rockaway Mall recently in support of the eighth
annual Saint Clare’s Walk for Breast Cancer Awareness.
Hosted by the Hilton Garden Inn, the Township of
Rockaway, and the Rockaway Townsquare Mall, the event
was held to raise awareness of breast cancer. The walk pro-
moted early diagnosis as well as St. Clare’s newest cancer
treatment, TomoTherapy, a revolutionary therapy integrat-
ing CT imaging and the latest in radiation technology.
When Ben Martin, Marketing Manager for St. Clare’s
Health System, stood at the podium before the walk, he told
the story of the “traveling shirt.”
“The first year it was done behind the scenes,” he said,
describing an incident that occurred at the 2007 walk.
Donita Judge, a Denville resident, had come to the walk in
the midst of her battle with breast cancer. With no shirts
left, the chair of the walk committee, Sandy Warner, gave
Judge her own shirt.
“The next year,” Martin continued, “…Donita got
onstage and explained what happened to her. She asked if
there was anyone she could give the shirt to. She gave it to
Linda Hartman.”
When Linda Hartman spoke into the microphone at this
year’s walk, she held up the wig she had worn last year
when she received the shirt.
“Last year, I had no hair. I wanted so desperately to feel
better again,” Hartman told the crowd. “I want all of you to
know what a difference a year makes.”
While Judge was unable to attend this year’s event (She TD Bank.” Wilson is this year’s recipient of the Mary walked, we gained inner strength and a sense of accom-
