Freshman Ian Goldsmith plays in the Hopewell Valley Central High School Orchestra. The
school has been named a Grammy Foundation Signature School semifinalist for excellence in
its music program for the fourth year in a row.
Local wineries are toasting legisla-
tion that will allow them to ship wine
directly to consumers beginning in
May.
The legislation, which was intro-
duced Dec. 11, was signed into law by
Gov. Christie on Jan. 17, and allows
wineries producing fewer than 250,000
gallons of wine a year to ship up to 12
cases of wine per customer directly,
and also allows the smaller wineries to
ship out of state.
A case of wine, according to the leg-
islation, could be no more than 9 liters
or 12 standard-size 750-milliliter bot-
tles.
It was very pleasing to see that we
can keep our outlets, said Violetta
Neri, who has co-owned the Hopewell
Valley Winery with her husband, Ser-
gio, since 2002.
The couple previously had owned a
vineyard and winery in the Brunello
di Montalcino region of Italy.
Neri praised the governor for pass-
ing the legislation, noting that, He has
said that New Jersey is open for busi-
ness, and this will help us a lot.
Retaining Hopewell Valley Winerys
outlets very much affects us in a posi-
tive way, she said. Before, we had to
take our wine to the liquor store, they
had to ship it and consumers had to
pay more than they had to, Violetta
said. This is really good for business.
Its good for restaurants, and its good
for consumers.
We fought very hard for that, and
we are glad it passed, said Gary
Mount, who owns Terhune Orchards
and Winery in Lawrenceville with his
wife, Pamela. What this legislation
also does is allow us to sell to BYOB
places at outlets in New Jersey using
our license.
We had just put so much money
into the vineyard, and then we were
thinking Oh no, Pamela Mount said
of the legislation. Were really very
pleased.
The direct selling, Gary Mount said,
had been prohibited since the estab-
lishment of farm wineries.
We think this will be very helpful
and very beneficial to the wine indus-
try, he said.
New Jersey has about 50 wineries,
he said, and none of these are really
large enough to make it without some-

Grammy in reach for
Hopewell Valley Central High

please see WINERIES, page 4
Hopewell Valley Central High School has
been awarded a Grammy of sorts.
The Grammy Foundation has named the
school one of its Signature School semifinal-
ists for 2012.
The semifinalists, which include 125 public
high schools across the country, were chosen
from thousands of schools that submitted in-
formation to the Grammy Foundation, the
philanthropic arm of the Grammy Awards,
which will be telecast on Feb. 12.
For Hopewell Valley, this marks the fourth
year in a row that our high school music pro-
gram has been recognized as a semifinalist for
its excellence by an independent national or-
ganization and program, said Peter Griffin,
supervisor of visual and performing arts in
the school district. This continued honor is
truly a testament to the talented students and
staff that we have here in Hopewell Valley, as
well as to the support for our parents, our
board of education, our district administra-
tion and high school administration. I am
truly humbled to be a part of this superlative
music program.
The Grammy Signature Schools program
sustains excellence in music education by
granting awards to public high school music
programs in communities across the coun-
try, said Neil Portnow, president and chief
executive officer of the Recording Academy
and the Grammy Foundation in a statement.
Each of these semifinalist schools should be
commended for their commitment to keeping
the arts in their curriculum for the long-term

benefits of their students.
Unlike any other community
Ive been in, the Hopewell Valley
advocates for the arts, said Grif-
fin, who is in the middle of his
14th year in the district and on
his third stop in 28 years. In my
time here, there have been four
referendums, and the only one
that didnt pass didnt include an
arts facility. We are very fortunate
in that when the funds are avail-
able, we are a priority. This is a
community that relishes its arts.
After reviewing additional sup-
plemental materials, such as con-
cert audio performances,
concert programs and repertoire
lists, the foundation will an-
nounce its finalists for the awards
in mid-March. Finalists will get
grants ranging from $1,000 to
$10,000 to benefit their music pro-
gram.
A single school is named the
National Grammy Signature
School.
Its very competitive, Griffin
said. Only a handful of New Jer-
sey schools have ever been named
one of the 10 finalists. As honored
as we are to be a semifinalist, we
want to be in the top 10.
The high school, he said, has
been at least a semifinalist for the
past four years in large part be-
cause of the support of the com-
munity and the administration.
There is no stigma with being
in the music program, he said.
Its cool to sing in the choir. Weve
had football players and cheer-
leaders in the choir and wrestlers
in the orchestra. When youre
born with it, youre raised with it
and exposed to it, you tend to
gravitate to it.
The kids are great. It goes
back to the elementary school
level. Their general music classes
are very comprehensive and
there is a mandatory choral
music program. Many of those
kids go on to sing in the high
school choral program.
The fourth- and fifth-grade cho-
rus, he said, has been recognized
as one of the top five in New Jer-
sey.
The success of the district
music program, Griffin ex-
plained, also encourages the best
teachers and directors in the per-
forming arts to come to the
Hopewell Valley.
There are lots of teachers and
directors that want to work here,
he said. We can attract those
quality teachers and directors.

thing like this. This allows us to
sell like New Jersey farms sell.
Wineries are much the same.
Theres not thousands of acres or
thousands of cases of wine.
The legislation creates an out-
of-state winery license that can be
issued for out-of-state wineries
that produce a maximum of
250,000 gallons of wine a year. The
bill sets the annual fee for the out-
of-state license at $938, which is
the same as what plenary and
farm wineries pay.
I think this will definitely
allow New Jersey wineries to
continue to thrive, Gary Mount
said.

The following are reports from
Hopewell police.
A 23-year-old Pennington man
was charged with receiving
stolen property on Jan. 19 at 11:38
p.m., according to police reports.
Police had responded to a resi-
dence with an arrest warrant on
an unrelated matter. Upon enter-
ing the residence, an officer ob-
served a Hopewell Township
street sign, Hansens Corner, in
the house. The man was taken
into custody on the active arrest
warrant. He was processed at po-
lice headquarters and was later
released after posting bail. The
case will be forwarded to the Mer-
cer County Prosecutors Office for
review.
A 39-year-old Bethlehem, Pa.,
man was charged with drunken
driving, speeding and reckless
driving after being pulled over
Jan. 23 at 11:32 p.m. Police said
the man was stopped along Route
31 after his car was observed trav-
eling at 58 mph in a 40 mph zone.
Police said the driver had the
odor of alcohol on his breath.
After performing field-sobriety
tests, he was placed under arrest
and transported to headquarters
for processing. He was later re-
leased to a relative. The case will
be heard in municipal court.
A 77-year-old Pennington
woman was charged with care-
less driving after she was in-
volved in a one-car crash on Jan.
23.
Police said the woman had
been driving a 2004 Chrysler Se-
bring northbound on Scotch Road
at 5:13 p.m. when she failed to ne-
gotiate a curve in the road. The
car, police said, proceeded off of
the road, crossed through the
grass median at Scotch Road West
and struck a mailbox.
Police said the car then contin-
ued approximately 150 feet on to
the lawn of a private residence
and struck a tree. The woman
was transported by the Penning-
ton First Aid Squad to a local hos-
pital for a minor facial injury, and
was treated and later released.
Sometime between 9:30 a.m.
and 5:15 p.m. on Jan. 24, someone
forced open a first-floor bathroom
window and entered a local home.
Various articles of jewelry and
cash, with a total value of $1,970,
were taken.
Sometime between 11 p.m. Jan.
27 and 9:15 a.m. Jan. 28, someone
damaged a landscape trailer that
was being stored at a private loca-
tion. Damage was estimated at
$500.
A 15-year-old Hopewell town-
ship boy was charged with pos-
session of marijuana (under 50
grams) and possession of drug
paraphernalia, after police
stopped a car driven by a 17-year-
old Hopewell Township boy on
Jan. 25 at 4:15 p.m. Police say they
found the 15-year-old passenger in
possession of a glass pipe con-
taining marijuana residue. Police
say the juvenile passenger was
placed under arrest and trans-
ported to police headquarters for
processing. The 15-year-old was
later released into the custody of
a parent and the case will be
heard in family court.

R
ecent news that Atlantic City
casinos had a better December
2011 than December 2010 is, of
course, good to hear. Given the citys
long losing streak, any step in the
right direction, no matter the reason,
is cause to pat someone on the back.
But, a closer look at the numbers
shows that the city is not anywhere
close to being out of the woods.
The state Division of Gaming En-
forcement recently announced that
total casino win rose 4.2 percent last
December to $246.5 million. It was the
highest monthly percentage increase
since December 2006, officials said.
Thats great, except for the fact that,
first, in December 2010, Old Man Win-
ter already had settled in for what was
to be a brutal stay. Last December, the
weather was great. That, alone, proba-
bly helped the casinos quite a bit.
Oh, and the state also announced
that, for the year, casinos won $3.3 bil-
lion, which is down 6.9 percent from
2010.
But we really dont feel like raining
on ACs parade today. A win is a win is
a win, and well take it.
And there are other reasons for
hope:
The Revel is set to open this sum-
mer. No doubt it will generate a fair
amount of buzz that will attract visi-
tors and create thousands of jobs.
And, John Palmieri is the new exec-
utive director of the Casino Reinvest-
ment Development Authority. He has a
history of success in helping commu-
nities expand. If he can get the city,
the casinos and the various other enti-
ties on board in marketing the city as
a destination point for tourists, some-
thing really good could happen.
The state also is looking into online
gambling, which actually could help
casinos in the long run.
Atlantic City still has a long, diffi-
cult road to recovery. But Decembers
news was good, and there are other,
positive signs.
Maybe theres hope for the city after
all.
Small win is better than a loss
At this point, Atlantic City will cling to any scrap of good news
AC notches a win
There are a few reasons why
Decembers casino win numbers are
up. Not all point to a rapid recovery
for Atlantic City, but, at this point, a
win is a win.

in our opinion
As mayor of Hopewell Borough, one of
the frequently cited doughnut-hole mu-
nicipalities of Mercer County, I am com-
pelled to offer a response to the recent
spate of editorial comments suggesting the
borough should consolidate with the town-
ship.
First and foremost, I welcome a thought-
ful and rational resident-generated discus-
sion concerning consolidation. As mayor, I
consider my primary obligation to bor-
ough taxpayers to be a reasonable property
tax rate related to the efficient delivery of
necessary and desired public services. The
council and I have made, and will continue
to make, every good-faith effort to appro-
priately balance this obligation.
For every property tax dollar collected
in the borough, 88 percent is allocated to
shared services, contracted services or
state/county mandates. Only 12 percent is
allocated for services provided by our pro-
fessional administrative and public
works/water utility staff.
Because of our efforts to be efficient
with every tax dollar, borough residents
have been and will continue to be the bene-
ficiaries of the prosperity enveloping
the borough. During the past four years,
the borough has experienced an unprece-
dented growth in its commercial sector
to such an extent that only one commercial
site remains unoccupied. We have residen-
tial properties selling quickly, many
new businesses, numerous sophisticated
yet affordable eateries, and other business-
es and new families coming to the
borough.
The council and I have wisely decided to
invest taxpayer dollars, federal grants and
other funds to major infrastructure repairs
to improve, not ignore, the lasting needs of
our community. Among those improve-
ments is the revitalization of Broad Street,
which now features a historical landscape
through the center of town, furthering our
economic growth.
We partnered with the NJDOT to im-
prove and not simply repair the aged
Greenwood Avenue Bridge, a bridge that
now features historic elements consistent
with our heritage. Weve successfully se-
cured state and federal grants to make an-
nual road and drainage improvements,
and our streets and roads inventory is
safer for vehicles and pedestrians than at
any other point in time. And soon, we will
open an ADA-compliant and publicly ac-
cessible municipal building and court-
room that will serve the needs of our resi-
dents for generations to come.
Through our long-standing efforts and
commitment to shared services, the bor-
ough deserves to be acknowledged as a
model for shared services long before the
self-serving and politically motivated pro-
nouncements of others.
While shared services is the current best
practice for the delivery of government
services, I remain committed to the con-
cept that the future of the borough and
other similarly situated communities best
resides in the formation of not-for-profit,
non-municipal entities free from the
straight-jacketed mindset of state govern-
ment applied regardless of need, utility
and ability to pay.
