    Hill to as far as Sewell and Med-ford. They have different back-grounds, attend different schoolsand have different groups of friends. However, together theyshare a common bond in their in-terest in sailing.

    ing the summer, racing other kidsfrom across New Jersey andaround the region. The team host-ed a regatta on July 30 against theassociation’s other teams.

    The team members all havehad different journeys into thesport. Some have been sailing formore than five years, some for as

    fewer as two or three. However, all11 members talk of their team asits own little club.

    “Meeting new people is reallyawesome,” said Annalise Rowl-ing, 15, of Haddonfield. “As far asI know, I’m the only person in myschool or grade that sails.”

    Cherry Hill resident SkyeMada, 11, said she didn’t knowanyone in her school or group of friends who sailed prior to start-ing.

    “When I started, I didn’t reallyknow anyone,” she said. “Every-one was so nice to me.”

    Haddonfield resident Leo

    Brickner, 12, said he got into sail-ing because he wanted to do aunique summer activity.

    “It’s fun to always have some-thing to do rather than sittingaround doing nothing,” he said.“It’s fun saying I sail.”

    Head coach Robert Graham of Moorestown said sailing requiresa high level of patience. He com-plimented his team, saying all

    members have grown in maturitysince they first started.

    “Some people, it takes too longfor them to like it and that’s whenthey quit,” he said. “There’s a cer-tain level of maturity that’s re-quired.”

    Cameron Acito, 17, of CherryHill said he was attracted to thesport because of the patience andmaturity required to master it.

    “I definitely like the independ-ence factor that your actions arereciprocated through how youperform,” he said.

    “It’s really fun having a big re-sponsibility like this,” said

    Cameron’s younger brother, 11-year-old Nathan. “I like learninghow to race and keep your boatnice for all of the regattas.”

    “I like the freedom,” saidAidan Ryder, 14, of Medford. “Wewere alone in our own boats hav-ing a good time.”

    Just like other sports teams,there’s a large time commitmentwith sailing. The team practices

    at Riverton Yacht Club on Mon-days and then at Cooper RiverTuesdays and Wednesdays.Thursdays are competition dayswhere the team will leave as earlyas 5:30 or 6 a.m. to travel to anoth-er yacht club in the region, notcoming home until night. Thenon Fridays, the team is back onthe river for another practice.

    “We try to start right whenschool ends,” Graham said. “Weget some practice time so we’reready to go.”

    The many hours of practicehave paid off for a number of thesailors. Cameron Acito finished in

    first place in the Laser 4.7 series atthe Brigantine regatta on July 16,with Rowling not far behind inthird place. Zachary York of Sewell won the Laser 4.7 categoryin Stone Harbor on July 9, andChaz Burnham of Collingswoodfinished in first place in Laser Re-dial on that same day.

    At their home regatta on July30, Patrick York placed fourth inthe Opti and teammate SkyeMada placed sixth. York alsoplaced seventh in the Laser 4.7

    and teammate Aidan Ryderplaced eighth. Walker Schwartzplaced eighth in the Laser Radial.

    The team has grown over thepast eight years from just threekids to an average of 10 to 12 an-nually.

    By SEAN LAJOIEThe Sun

    Medford resident Stephen Ma- jewski is a man of many inspira-tions. After his piano careerseemed to be a thing of the past,he was inspired to play againwhen he heard an instrumentalpiece by a Celtic jazz and cham-ber music ensemble called Night-noise.

    “I took some piano lessons as a

    child but I did not play regularly,”Majewski said. “In 2003, I was in-spired to play again after hearing‘Snow on High Ground.’ I startedlessons again for about a year andthen continued self-studying withthe goal of recording an album.”

    Twelve years later, Majewskihas recently released his secondsolo piano album by the age of 45.

    His newest album is entitled“Roads.” Majewski describes thisharmony as a blend of classicalmotifs with folk melodies, evok-

    ing a plaintive, wistful, peacefulatmosphere.

    Majewski has always been mo-tivated to write music by his fa-vorite musician, George Winston.

    “He’s sort of the father of con-temporary solo piano music. He’sthe best I’ve ever heard,” Majews-ki said.

    Majewski’s latest source of in-spiration was found in a cartoon.

    Included in the track list of “Roads” are Majewski’s interpre-

    tations of three songs from the1977 Rankin/Bass animated pro-duction of The Hobbit: “Roads,”“Misty Mountains Cold” and“The Greatest Adventure.”

    “I’ve always loved The Hobbitcartoon,” Majewski said.

    Maury Laws is the composer of all The Hobbit music. Majewskifound inspiration in Law’s tune toinclude melodies of his on his lat-est album. However, the album it-self was not inspired by anythingin particular.

    “I can’t point to any one thingthat inspired me to record anoth-er album,” Majewski said. “It justkind of popped into my headabout a year ago.”

    Majewski recorded his original

    album, “Tamarac,” in studio, butafter doing some research onhome recording, he found the

    prices to be relatively inexpensive

    ith schools preparing to

    open their doors in a few

    short weeks, now is a good

    time to talk about the upcoming aca-

    demic year.

    This week, we’re featuring our first

    Back to School special section, which

    is included inside this issue. The sec-ond section is coming in two weeks.

    In the next few weeks, we’ll have

    more comprehensive back to school

    coverage, including a Q&A with the su-

    perintendent of the school district to

    keep you informed of all the changes

    and excitement on the horizon for the

    2015-2016 school year.

    At The Sun, we’re all about commu-

    nity news, which, of course, includes

    covering the local school districts.

    We’ll be at as many school board meet-

    ings as possible and do our best to stay

    on top of the “hard” news – taxes,

    budgets, elections and the like.

    But we want to be able to bring our

    readers so much more. To do that, we

    need your help.

    When students achieve in the class-room, in the arts, in sports, etc., we

    want to hear about it, so that we can

    share that news with the entire com-

    munity.

    We publish an “On Campus” section

    of our paper to do just that – to recog-

    nize the hard-working students in a

    way that stands out from other sec-

    tions of our paper.

    Making the honor roll, winning a

    spelling bee, excelling in an extra-cur-

    ricular activity, it’s all news to us.

    Problem is, we don’t always hear

    about these accomplishments. That’s

    where you come in.

    If you’re a parent, and your child

    does something special, shoot us an

    email. Include a photo, if possible.

    If you’re a teacher or principal, and

    you have a special event coming up or

    there is other news that your people in

    town should know about, tell us about

    it.

    If possible, we’ll have a reporter

    present to cover the event or write a

    story and take photos. If not, we’ll fig-ure out a way to get your news into the

    paper, one way or another.

    Too often, the news is driven by

    events that anger or sadden people.

    Too often, the good work of young peo-

    ple is ignored or, at the least, certainly

    not celebrated the way it should be.

    And there are a lot of young people

    doing good these days.

    We want to change that. We want to

    let everyone in town know when

    there’s something positive going on,

    when young people go beyond the ordi-

    nary to help someone or have an out-

    standing accomplishment.

    Call, email or write. Just let us know

    what’s happening in your school so

    that we can share it.

    in our opinion

    School bells to ring soonThroughout the year, The Sun wants to be your source for school information

    School news

    With the start of a new school year creep-ing up on us, we want to invite everyoneto share their news with us. From theclassroom to extra-curricular activities, letus know what is happening in your school,and we’ll spread the word.

    Established 1991

    The Medford United MethodistChurch recently broke ground ona long-awaited expansion.

    Its new Family Life Center willeventually house a large space forcontemporary worship, dinners,youth activities and communityevents as well as new classroomspaces. “This has been a dream of the church for over 10 years,” saidPastor Joe Monahan. “A lot of people have worked very hard toget us to the place where we canfinally see this vision become re-ality.” The first phase of the proj-ect, which includes land clearing,utility and site work performed

    by Blue Rock Construction of Burlington, will be completed inSeptember. Construction of thebuilding itself is expected tobegin in 2016.

    The congregation plans to usethe new space to expand its pro-grams for children and youth.“Every year, we run out of spacefor Vacation Bible School,” saidAssociate Pastor Kathleen Stolz,

    who oversees the program. “Itwill be great to host youth pro-grams in the new facility. It willalso have room for half-court bas-ketball and volleyball.”

    The addition, designed by Med-ford architect and church mem-ber Michael Pagnotta, is the firstexpansion of the facility since1982, when a large education wingwas added to house the church’spreschool program, offices, choirroom and Sunday School class-rooms. The church has been lo-cated at the corner of Hartford,Taunton and Himmelein Roadssince 1972, when it moved from its

    original location on BranchStreet in Medford Village. Thechurch was organized in 1821 andthroughout its history has adapt-ed its ministry to meet the needsof the congregation and commu-nity.

    “It’s important to us that we en-gage the people of Medford,” saidLay Leader Ginger Harriett,whose family has been involved

    in the congregation over multiplegenerations. “Our new buildingwill include a stage that willmake it a great performancespace, and we’re excited to use itfor events that will connect withour local community.”

    Last year, the church adoptedMedford Park off Mill Street andhas sent several teams of adultsand youth to clean up the park,clearing weeds and spreadingmulch. Several times a year thechurch conducts food and diaperdrives and there is a team thatvolunteers weekly to rebuildhomes damaged by Superstorm

    Sandy. “The congregation is al-ways looking for new ministryopportunities and it’s our hopethat this new building will pro-vide us with even more avenuesfor making a difference in ourcommunity,” Monahan said.

    During the summer, the churchmeets on Sundays at 9 and 10:30a.m. Learn more by visiting med-fordumc.org.

    compared to his first encounter

    with recording.“Being able to record at homeis nice,” Majewski said.

    However, this made for a verydifferent experience his secondtime around.

    “With ‘Roads,’ I was writingthe songs and learning therecording software at the sametime,” Majewski said. “Plus, threeof the songs are piano arrange-ments of copyrighted songs, somaking sure I had the properlegal clearance was somewhat

    stressful.”Majewski is working on getting

    his latest album on Pandora, Spo-tify, Apple Music and any radioshows such as Echoes that playsimilar music.

    “That’s a lot of work,” Majews-ki said.

    Luckily, he has some worthyknowledge to draw from aftermuch success with his debut soloalbum. Songs from “Tamarac”have been played on Pandora

    more than 2.6 million times.Majewski has enjoyed success,but he still values the fundamen-tals of sticking to the plan and en-

     joying the process.“It takes a lot of persistence to

    record an album, so there’s a de-gree of satisfaction when it’sdone. Arranging songs for pianois challenging, too, but whetherit’s composing or arranging anexisting song, the process of starting and then finishing a songis fun,” Majewski said.

    Listeners can preview thesongs on “Roads” and purchasethe physical album or digitallydownload it at www.stephenma-

     jewski.com. Downloads are alsoavailable on iTunes and Amazon.

    in various academic and adminis-trative roles, including associatedean for business relations.

    He also served as a townshipcommittee member forSouthampton Township and wasa greatly respected man in thecounty.

    The Burlington County Volun-teer Center originally gave $1,000in college scholarship awards tovolunteers in the area who made

    a difference. The organizationwas then contacted by the HainesFamily Foundation out of respectfor Laufer, and with its help, theaward grew to $7,500 the followingyear.

    Now with the help of this fami-ly and the funds the organizationreceives from the Joe Laufer me-morial fund, the award has growndrastically, and this year it hasgiven $25,000 to four students inthe area.

    “Going forward, we hope to

    find another foundation to helpwith the funding because it isgrowing increasingly more diffi-cult to narrow down the applica-tions to such a select few win-ners,” said Michael Pippen, coor-dinator at the Volunteer Center of Burlington County.

    Among the group of four win-ners from the 2015 class wasShawnee’s Katie O’Rorke.

    “I was very excited to receivethe award. I know there are many

    students who do important volun-teer work in our county, so I amvery happy to be one of the stu-dents selected,” O’Rorke said. “Iknow that Mr. Laufer was anamazing volunteer in our areaand contributed to his communi-ty in many ways, so to receive hisaward is a great honor.”

    Volunteers in the area may rec-ognize the name O’Rorke, asKatie comes from a family who is

    heavily entrenched in the volun-teering community. Katie is thesecond of the O’Rorkes to winthis award; her brother Matt took

    home the scholarship money in2013. Matt is also very involved involunteering and worked withmany of the charitable organiza-tions with which O’Rorkeworked.

    Matt created the Medford Stu-dents March Against Hungermany years ago. The march pro-vides thousands of pounds of do-nations each year to benefit theFood Bank of South Jersey.O’Rorke knew when Matt left for

    college that she would be takingover the campaign because somany people in need benefit fromit, and now that she is leaving forcollege, her younger sister Caro-line plans to take the reins.

    O’Rorke will also be followingin her brother’s footsteps attend-ing Penn State next year; Matt is a

     junior there.“I come from a family of volun-

    teers, so I feel volunteering is partof who I am,” O’Rorke said.

    Growing up, O’Rorke’s family

    was always involved in some typeof charitable drive or event toraise funds for important causes.O’Rorke is especially captivatedby causes that benefit children,animals and the hungry.

    Her family has always helpedlocal animal organizations, col-lecting donations over the yearsfor the Food Bank of South Jer-sey, PAWS farm, Woodford CedarRun and Burlington County Ani-mal Shelter. They even adopted a

    homeless dog from New Orleanswho was very sick after Hurri-cane Katrina.

    “I’ve been brought up to be-lieve that every person can makea difference in their communityin some way,” O’Rorke said.

    O’Rorke has used her talents asa dancer to voluntarily teachyounger students, as well as per-form at charitable events.

    As part of the criteria to apply

    for the Joe Laufer College Schol-arship Award, students must berecommended by one school offi-cial and one non-school commu-

    nity leader.O’Rorke’s recommendation let-

    ters came from all over. She re-ceived letters from the organiza-tions she volunteers with, severalprincipals from the schools thatparticipate in the Medford MarchAgainst Hunger, her elementaryschool principal while she was atChairville, Richard Lacovera, andSherry Weinberg, who was herprincipal at Taunton Forge Ele-mentary School.

    “I also believe the communityvolunteer director from the FoodBank of South Jersey submitted aletter of recommendation forme,” O’Rorke said. “Everyone ap-preciates the volunteer work andis always very supportive of thecampaigns.”

    O’Rorke is excited for the newopportunities that await her atPenn State University.

    Having been there many timesto see her brother, she is familiarwith the campus and has alwaysloved it. She’s also attended the

    Penn State Lionettes Dance Campfor many years.

    “Penn State has an excellentacademic program and the foot-ball games are a lot of fun! It hadeverything I was looking for, andit already feels like home,”O’Rorke said.

    While double majoring in psy-chology and environmental sci-ence, O’Rorke plans to continuedancing at Penn State. She alsoplans to get involved in service or-

    ganizations and would like to getinvolved with Penn State’s THON,the largest student philanthropygroup in the world which benefitspediatric cancer patients.

    “I have attended THON week-end at Penn State for severalyears. It’s an amazing event, and Iam looking forward to attendingit this year as a student,” O’Rorkesaid.

    Being involved in so many dif-ferent organizations and clubs atsuch a young age leaves O’Rorkewith countless choices of roads to

    travel moving forward.“Right now, I am interested in

    so many different areas that I amnot exactly sure what career I willwind up in. My dream job wouldbe something that involves help-ing animals, children and the en-vironment,” O’Rorke said.

    The four winners for this year – O’Rorke, Carolyn Bresnahanfrom Cinnaminson High School,Charles Castillo from SenecaHigh School and Kacie Stettner

    from Bordentown Regional HighSchool – were given their awardsat the Burlington County Librarymain branch in Westampton onJuly 29. Members of both theLaufer family and Haines familywere in attendance.
