Township, borough see increase in burglaries
HEATHER FIORE/The Hopewell Sun
Detective Mike Sherman of the Hopewell Township Police Department explained the best way to keep burglars out of your car, which is also
the simplest: lock the doors. Also, make sure to keep valuables out of view in a locked glove box or center console.

Hopewell Township and Bor-
ough saw an unusual increase in
burglaries in May.
The majority of Mays burgla-
ries involved vehicles, according
to Hopewell Detective Lance Mal-
oney.
We get car burglaries
throughout the year, but it just so
happens that we got a little bit of
a hit in May, Detective Lance
Maloney said. However, there
has also been burglaries in neigh-
boring communities such as
Montgomery, Princeton, Hillsbor-
ough and Lawrence.
In May, Hopewell saw a total of
nine car burglaries eight in the
township and one in the borough.
Most of them occurred during a
period of two weeks, and on the
same street or in the same neigh-
borhood.
Its not unusual that when we
have one car burglary, there are
usually two or three on the same
street, Maloney said.
In almost every case, burglars
made off with cell phones in
these cases, the majority of them
were iPhones which is some-
thing Maloney found to be quite
surprising.
I was very surprised with the
phones because a lot of people are
attached to their phones 24/7, es-
pecially younger kids, he said.

Students get taste of entrepreneurialism
Local business owners share knowledge with fifth graders
BY HEATHER FIORE
The Hopewell Sun
On Friday, June 8, about 50
fifth-grade students at Toll Gate
Grammar School in Pennington
were given an insightful and in-
formative presentation from sev-
eral local business owners on en-
trepreneurialism.
The idea behind the presenta-
tion, which was put together by
Chairman of the Pennington Bor-
ough Economic Development
Commission Eric Kollevoll, was
to expose younger children to the
idea of entrepreneurship and fur-
ther inform them of future busi-
ness opportunities as they em-
bark on their journey to middle
school.
What I wanted to do was real-
ly help the business community
reach out to the residents, and I
thought one of the ways best to do
that was to actually help foster
entrepreneurialism with the stu-
dents locally, Kollevoll said. The
fifth grade was a logical choice
because theyre going to middle
school, so I thought itd be nice for
them to meet some of the local
business owners and hear what
its like to own their own busi-
nesses.
Kollevoll, who is also the
founder of Kollevoll & Associates,
LLC, an independent insurance
agency in Pennington, gathered
four other local business owners
to present at Toll Gate. Since
Kollevoll is an entrepreneur in
Pennington Borough, he deemed
it important to pick a school that
was in the same area, which is
why he chose Toll Gate.
The presentation was only an
hour long, but covered a variety
of subjects. Kollevoll and his four
fellow entrepreneurs spoke about
their businesses and what they
do, where they each grew up and
what they did for jobs when they
were younger, what inspired
them to open their businesses,

hottest day of the year in Oslo.
Frode and Milla are having their

else can. Perhaps he can save
everyone.
Welcome July 25 at 7 p.m.
Young Kurdish refugee Bilal has
made his way through Europe for

ities in Calais, on the French side
of the Channel, Bilal feels left
with no other choice than to swim
across. Bilal meets Simon, a mid-
dle-aged swim instructor who
agrees to help; but what begins as
a relationship based on self-inter-
est develops into something much
more.
Arranged July 30 at 7 p.m.
Rochel is an Orthodox Jew, and
Nasira a Muslim of Syrian ori-
gin. They are both young teachers
at a public school in Brooklyn.
They are also both going through
the process of getting arranged
marriages through their respec-
tive religious and traditional cus-
toms. With family pressure on the
one hand and the rejection of tra-
ditional values by the outside
world on the other, Rochel and
Nasira rely on each other to pull
through this difficult time in
their lives.

H
e sat there, with a blank face,
as he heard he was guilty on
45 of 48 charges of sexual
abuse of minors. And its likely Jerry
Sandusky, the former Penn State assis-
tant football coach who went so far as
to start a charity for neglected chil-
dren, will never see the light of day
again once hes sentenced in Septem-
ber.
And when that sentence comes
down, is there any doubt it will be just?
Regardless of what the sentence is,
the entire Sandusky ordeal is a re-
minder of just how important it is for
people to speak up on the matter of
sexual abuse.
If youre a witness to such an atroci-
ty, you must speak up and let the au-
thorities know.
If you are a family member of an
abuser or of someone who has been
abused you must let the authorities
know. And if youre a victim, as
painful as it might seem, you must
speak up and you must let the author-
ities know. For if weve learned any-
thing from this case, its just how im-
portant one voice could be if its used
wisely. If someone anyone had spo-
ken up in the 1990s, its possible others
could have been spared from this mon-
ster and his sickening abuse.
And, weve also learned, quite clear-
ly, that as painful as it is for those who
were abused to speak up, doing so
could very well lead to justice being
served and it could lead to sexual
predators being stopped in their
tracks.
All it takes is one conversation: to a
loved one, to a teacher, to a police offi-
cer. And the rest will be taken care of,
with luck, swiftly and justly. Sandusky
is where he belongs behind bars. And
if one just one more predator can be
taken off the streets because someone,
somewhere speaks up after thinking of
this case, then it will be all worth it in
the end.
No one, ever, should have to go
through what those kids went through.
Ever again.
in our opinion
See something? Say something
Conviction of Jerry Sandusky a reminder of importance of speaking up
Sexual abuse hotline
There are numerous sexual-abuse
resources out there, including the
Rape, Abuse & Incest National
Network. RAINN has a hotline for vic-
tims. Call (800) 656-HOPE. All calls
are confidential.
So, when I saw that there were a couple of
cars like that with a couple of phones miss-
ing, it just surprised me.
Burglars also targeted other valuables
that were in view and easy to pick up and
go, such as laptops, jewelry and wallets.
Maloney explained that there are some re-
ally simple steps people can take to avoid
being victim to these types of crimes, in-
cluding the most obvious: lock your doors.
Lock your car doors and dont leave
anything visible in the car that somebody
can see easily (GPS, purse, laptop comput-
ers, iPhones, iPod), he said. If you do
leave them in a car, put them in a locked
console or locked glove box, but still lock
your doors. If you leave that stuff out in
the open, theyre [burglars] most likely
going to try your car door. If you have a
garage, park your car in the garage and
lock it. But, if you do park it in your drive-
way, if you can have motion sensor lights
on your house, thats a good idea since per-
petrators dont like to be exposed by light.
Aside from car burglaries, Maloney also
explained how May also saw the highest
number of home burglaries compared to
any other month this year.
May was not a good month for residen-
tial burglaries, either, he said. There
were six in May, three in April, one in
March, one in February, and six in Janu-
ary. However, these numbers include at-
tempted burglaries, too, although the ma-
jority of them were actual burglaries
where people went into homes and actually
took things out.
Maloney explained how the most obvi-
ous way to prevent a home burglary is to
lock all of your doors and windows, which
some residents in Hopewell don't do, sur-
prisingly enough.
Some people do leave their homes un-
locked, and we dont recommend that, he
said. You should lock your home up, secure
your valuables as best as you can, especially
if theres a safe you can put them in. Try not
to leave items just lying out and about (lap-
tops, electronics) things that can be taken
easily. If its possible to put jewelry in a safe
or a safe deposit box secured in your home
somewhere, thats best thing to do because
burglars take items that they can just pick
up and get out with very quickly.
Although nearly 15 burglaries were suc-
cessfully committed in Hopewell during
May, no suspects were arrested. However,
Maloney explained that the spike in bur-
glaries for May isn't that uncommon.
I think we run in spurts with things,
Maloney said. Some months, we may only
have one burglary, and youre always going
to have theft (shoplifting, somebodys bike
stolen), but its not uncommon to see it go
in waves. One month it may be very quiet,
and then like this May, with home and car
burglaries, it was active.

Have you and your family en-
joyed the Hopewell Harvest Fair
over the years? Every year, hun-
dreds of Hopewell Valley resi-
dents look forward to attending
our unique community event. Did
you know that every activity at
the Fair is organized by a volun-
teer? This year, the 26th Hopewell
Harvest Fair is on Oct. 13 and
were looking for a few more vol-
unteers for the planning commit-
tee.
If you have a few extra hours to
spare this summer and are look-
ing for a way to get involved in
the community and make new
friends, please consider joining
our vibrant group!

Julie at (609) 915-5789, or come to
the next committee meeting on

Food Vendor Coordinator: This
person reaches out to local restau-
rants to sell food at the Fair and is
their point person during the
planning process and throughout
the day of the Fair. He or she
works with vendors to organize
their menus and creates a map of
the food vendor area, and over-
sees set up on the day of the Fair.
Our previous coordinator left de-
tailed information to pass on,
making this a fun, easy role for
someone who loves the local food-
ie scene!
Homegrown Contest Coordina-
tor: If you have a green thumb,
consider helping us to revitalize
the Homegrown Contest. In this
role, you will decide the parame-
ters of the contest (Most Fabu-
lous Zucchini, Tubbiest Tomato,
Plumpest Pumpkin, etc.), solicit
entries from home gardeners,
identify judges, and set up the
tent on the morning of the Fair. It
would be great to bring back this
country contest for 2012!
Crafter Co-Coordinator: Do you
love craft shows? The crafters
tent is one of the highlights of the
Hopewell Harvest Fair. Were
looking for someone to work with
our current coordinator to solicit
crafters to participate and organ-
ize the tent on the day of the Fair.
Its a fun job and a great way to
get first dibs on the merchandise!
Signage Coordinator: Were
looking for someone to take
charge of creating new signs and
organizing their placement
around the Hopewell Valley. This
would be a great job for a high
school student looking for a com-
munity service opportunity!

why and how they became self-
employed, and what their days
consist of now as business own-
ers.
The goal was to do something
meaningful for the kids, and it re-
ally was, Kollevoll said. It was
amazing. You wouldnt believe
the number of aspiring entrepre-
neurs in that classroom. It was
pretty cool.
Greg Fontaine, owner of A&E
Construction Company in Pen-
nington, was among the other
presenters and explained how he
informed students that there are
several things they can do now in
their everyday lives to help them
decide what they would want to
do in the future.
If they ever did think they
wanted to run their own business
in the future, building their peo-
ple skills, helping somebody do
something around their house or
doing small jobs like shoveling, or
babysitting, was a helpful thing
they could do, he said. We kept
emphasizing that being a good lis-
tener is the first step, especially if
youre trying to sell something to
somebody. Being a good listener is
just as important as being a good
speaker.
Fontaine also encouraged stu-
dents to dabble in different types
of jobs to test things out and even-
tually figure out what direction
they want to go in.
They need to experience some
different things to see what they
may like or dislike so they can see
what direction they want to go
in, he said. Just because some-
thing pays a lot of money doesnt
mean you want to do it. Finding
something you do love is impor-
tant so it doesnt feel like work
day in and day out.
Councilwoman in Pennington
Borough and liaison to Penning-
ton Boroughs Economic Develop-
ment Commission Alyce Mc-
Clurg-Doldy was also in atten-
dance and gave the students
who included one of her sons
some insight on juggling a busi-
ness, family and other obligations
simultaneously.
McClurg-Doldy, who is also an
owner of a small personal training
studio Alyce & Om: Mind, Body,
Balance, started her own business
to create some balance in her life.
Becoming an entrepreneur is
the best thing I ever did, she
said. I worked at
Pennington/Ewing Athletic Club
for 10 years, and I wanted a way to
be home for my kids when they
get home for school. I just wanted
to be home, so it worked out per-
fectly, and it really allows me a
good amount of flexibility.
She also explained how she in-
volves her children in all of her
decisions, which helps inspire
them and helps them better un-
derstand that being an entrepre-
neur is a positive thing.
I always keep my kids in-
volved in my decisions. I tell them
that I choose to do things and that
I dont have to, but I need them to
accept it, she said. Theres
nothing greater than your kids
seeing you as something other
than mom. Youre not just mom
and dad, you actually have a life
outside of your house.
Although Kollevoll, Fontaine
and McClurg-Doldy are aware
that fifth graders arent going to
choose their life paths at the initi-
ation of middle school, they ex-
plained how it was important to
open their eyes to the concept of
entrepreneurialism.
We thought it was cool to
spark the interest of business
ownership for some of the more
impressionable younger kids,
Kollevoll said. They loved it. It
was very positive.
Since Kollevoll and his team of
entrepreneurs intrigued the chil-
dren so much, Toll Gate invited
Kollevoll back next year to give a
presentation to next years fifth
graders.
Presentation was meaningful for the students, says entrepreneur
