The Word on the Street
haddonfield.today | 3
Some mothers keep many
of their children’s toys.
Others disappear them in
the dead of night.
What’s a favorite toy
from your childhood that
you wish you still had?
JULIE
BEDDINGFIELD
of Inkwood Books
didn’t hesitate:
“Lincoln Logs!”
Julie spent endless
hours building an
approximation of
the cabin in ‘Little
House on the Prairie.’
“At that time, I think
I wanted to be an
architect,” she says.
Haddonfield’s
ROBERT BYRD
wishes his mother
– “a compulsive
thrower-outer”
– had overlooked
his stuffed panda.
“I don’t know why,
specifically, but I just
loved that thing.”
BILL DILLON of
Haddonfield got
wistful remembering
his teddy bear. “He
was my best friend.”
Bill’s family moved
when he was five.
“I suspect the bear
moved too, at that
time. Elsewhere.”
CAROLYN
NICOLAY of
Haddonfield loved
“the big illustrations
and rhyming words
in Robert Louis
Stevenson’s ‘A Child’s
Garden of Verses,’”
and wishes she still
had that book.
RAVON
CUMMINGS of
Philadelphia has
fond memories of
playing with ‘The Six
Million Dollar Man.”
Why would Ravon
like to still have that
toy? “I took really
good care of my
toys. Today it would
probably be worth
six million dollars!”
Mild-mannered
WAYNE ZSCHECH
– the pastor at the
Lutheran Church
of Our Savior in
Haddonfield –
would give almost
anything to still
have: “#3. ‘Rock‘Em
Sock‘Em Robots.’ #2.
‘Crossfire.’ #1. ‘Hot
Wheels.’”

A stroll down a lane of lights
Residents of Evergreen Lane have banded together to share their celebration
of the season with the entire community. They’ve created a Holiday Light Stroll
along their street, from Kings Highway to the area of Tatem School.
The aim is two-fold: To bring holiday cheer to friends and neighbors, and to
collect socks for those in need. Donations of new socks will be accepted in a
bin on the porch of 2 Evergreen Lane to benefit Knock Knock Give a Sock. If you
wish to donate dollars online, go here: bit.ly/3m72drp or scan the QR code n.
Evergreen Lane is a compact street of about 50 homes, tucked away between
Kings Highway and Grove Street. The Lane of Lights will kick off at dusk on
Fri Dec 11. A good place to start your stroll is the Children’s Sculpture Zoo at
Tatem Memorial Garden (corner of Evergreen and Kings Highway – between the
Haddon Fortnightly and the High School).
The lights will remain on nightly through New Year 2021.

Citizen of the Year:
Call for nominations
The Mayor’s Breakfast, which is hosted annually
by the Haddonfield Area Lions Club, will not be held
in 2021. because of the pandemic.
However, a Citizen of the Year for 2021 will be
named early in the new year, and to that end the
Lions Club is calling now for nominations. The
deadline is Thu Dec 31.
The Citizen of the Year award recognizes an
outstanding member of the Haddonfield community.
The recipient is selected by a representative group
of Haddonfield community members (not by the
Lions Club).
Many outstanding community members have
been nominated previously, and the committee will
consider both former and new nominees. However,
all nominations must be current and include the
2021 Nomination Form as a cover sheet, together
with one or more statements by those making
the recommendation. Note: Nominees must be
Haddonfield residents.
The nomination form may be downloaded from
the Lions Club website – haddonfieldlions.org n –
or by email request to either of the committee cochairs:
Jack Tarditi (jtarditi@connerstrong.com) and

A gift for dad
Is your father one of
those dads who says, in
advance of the holidays,
“I don’t need any gifts”
and “I’ve got everything I
need”?
Is he retired?
If so, the 65 Club has
the perfect gift for you
to give and for him
to receive: A year’s
membership!
Annual dues are just
$20 – less than 40¢ a
week. And the club has
a variety of activities
and programs that even
a stick-in-the-mud will
enjoy.
In normal times,
the group meets at its
clubhouse on Rhoads
Avenue. Recently,
it’s been meeting
– with masks and social
distancing protocols
– in the Borough Hall
auditorium. But with
neither of those venues
currently available,
members are signing on
to Zoom each Thursday
at 1:30pm.
Meetings feature
informative, entertaining
speakers who provide
members and guests
the opportunity to
listen, learn, and inquire;
great fellowship; and
occasionally some
colorful stories and
jokes.
In normal times,
activities include
bridge on Mondays,
trips on Tuesdays, tai
chi and pinochle on
Wednesdays, bowling on
Friday, and golf (spring
thru fall) at nine local
courses.

about the club and
membership, go to

Seasonal choral concert
ChildrenSong of New Jersey will present a virtual concert titled ‘Season of
Light’ on Sun Dec 20 at 3pm. The choir’s music will celebrate the significance
of light during the winter holiday season. Light can represent both religious
and non-spiritual winter events such as Christmas, Hanukkah, Santa Lucia,
Kwanzaa, and the winter solstice. During winter festivities, people sing, dance,
decorate, and incorporate some sort of light into their celebrations, be it the
moon, fires, candles, or electric lights.
This concert will feature ChildrenSong singers age 8 to 18 who participate
virtually in weekly rehearsals with professional musicians Polly Murray, Esther
Chen, and Nick Watts.
The suggested donation is $10 per adult, payable by venmo @childrensong
or by check to ChildrenSong of NJ, PO Box 134, Haddonfield, NJ 08033. A Zoom
link will be emailed on receipt of payment. Questions? info@childrensong.org.

Workshops on anxiety in children
The Haddonfield Education Association is preparing to sponsor two
workshops designed to help parents identify signs of anxiety in their children
and to support their children’s mental health during the pandemic.
The first presentation, scheduled for Wed Jan 20 at 7pm and titled Anxiety
in Children, is for parents of children in preschool through grade 8.
The second presentation, titled Anxiety in Adolescents and set for Wed Feb 3
at 7pm. is for parents of children in grades 9 thru 12.
Both presentations will be conducted via Zoom by Dr. Phillip C. Kendall,
Distinguished University Professor, Child and Adolescent Anxiety Disorders
Clinic at Temple University.
Although each workshop is self-contained, interested parents are welcome to
register for both presentations, if they wish. Go here: bit.ly/3mbmooa. Scan n.
The Zoom link will be sent to registrants about 24 hours prior to each
presentation date.
The first 20 people to register for (and attend) either session will receive one
of the following books, courtesy the Haddonfield Education Association and
Inkwood Books:
• For parents of preschool to grade 8 students: Me and My Feelings: A Kid’s
Guide to Understanding and Expressing Themselves.
• For parents of grades 9 to 12 students: Permission to Feel: Unlocking the
Power of Emotion to Help our Kids, Ourselves, and Our Society Thrive by Marc
Brackett, PhD.
Questions may be submitted up to seven days prior to the presentation
– here: bit.ly/3mbmooa. n – and also may be asked during Q&A time on Zoom.
These presentations reflect the School District’s commitment to socialemotional
learning and the social-emotional health of students and staff.

Light up with luminarias
Interfaith Caregivers’ annual Holiday House Tour
was paused this year, for safety reasons.
In place of this major fund-raiser, the organization
is offering two new ways to support its mission and
add some joy during the holiday season.
• A “glass” holiday ornament engraved with a
pearl of wisdom: “Do Small Things with Great Love.”
Each ornament comes in a presentation box and,
the sponsors say, “will make a fine addition to your
tree trimming and a wonderful gift for family and
friends.” The cost is $20.
• Custom luminarias with candles, to
symbolically light the way for a better 2021.
Interfaith Caregivers hopes its supporters and
residents will display the luminarias outside their
homes on New Year’s Eve. The bags, which carry a
snowflake design, are $20 for a pack of ten. “Join in
the fun and light up your neighborhood.”
To order ornaments and luminarias, email
rloiseau@ifchaddons.org or call at 856-354-0298,
9am to 5pm, weekdays.
Alternatively, stop by Weichert Realtors (132
Kings Hwy E) on Sat Dec 12 or Sat Dec 19 – 11am
to 2pm – to place orders with Interfaith volunteers.
(Chat with them about the rewards of volunteering!)
Note: Ornaments are in short supply, and bags are
on back order – but bags, at least, will be in stock
well before New Year’s Eve.

COViD message from the Commissioners
Following the death of a sixth Haddonfield resident from the novel
coronavirus, the Commissioners posted the message below on the Borough
website:
On the evening of December 8, 2020, the Board of Commissioners was
informed of the death of another one of our Haddonfield residents due to
COVID-19. This is the sixth soul lost to coronavirus within our Borough. The
Commissioners send their deepest condolences to the family & friends of all
those we’ve lost.
We had a total of 228 reported cases of COVID-19 as of November 30th. An
additional 22 cases were reported between Dec. 1st and Dec. 8th, bringing us to
250 cases. These 22 cases included: [A list followed, now out-of-date.*]
The Commissioners recognize that many people are in need of spiritual &
psychological support at this time, while others are looking for opportunities
to give back through community service projects. During the COVID-19
pandemic, the safest means to do these things is by phone, video, or through
social media platforms. Where in-person participation or support is necessary,
the CDC has issued the following guidance to help keep you safe:
• Maintain at least a distance of 2 arm lengths from others, including when
distributing food or praying.
• Wear a mask to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
• Meet outside, where it is easier to keep people apart and where there is more
ventilation.

Dance! (No one’s watching.)
The Markeim Arts Center is sponsoring a fourweek
virtual creative movement class for 3-to-6-
year-olds.
Titled “Dance as if No One is Watching!” and led
by Amanda Keller Fruchter, the class will encourage
kids and their caregivers to move and groove from
the comfort of their homes.
Kids will have the opportunity to let loose and
express themselves freely through dance, and
will be hopping, skipping, jumping, and sashaying
throughout the house.
Each class will consist of a warm-up followed by
a new step, each one part of the ballet or modern
dance repertoire. The class will draw from multiple
mediums in addition to dance (such as storytelling,
fine art, and music), and will integrate the use of
household items.
Note that the class can be modified to
accommodate physical differences.
Note also that caretaker participation is highly
encouraged.
The cost for Markeim members is $75 for the set
of four weekly classes. For non-members, $85.
The classes will be presented on Tue Dec 15, Dec
22, Dec 29, and Jan 5 from 2 to 2:40pm.

Learn to be a photo pro
Taking your photos to the next level is easier than you may think. The
Markeim Arts Center is sponsoring a program to help you learn how.
Titled “Haddonfield Photo Walk: The Art of Composition” and led by Debbie
Troy, the workshop will show you how to make your images more compelling
by applying some simple composition techniques. Participants will learn how
to think like a pro while capturing the beauty of downtown Haddonfield. (Note:
This is not a technical course about camera settings, so all levels are welcome.)
The Photo Walk, which is open to those age 15 and up, is scheduled for Sun
Dec 13 from 2:30 to 4pm (or 4:30pm, if extra time is needed). It will end with a
sweet surprise (think chocolate). Wear a mask, warm clothing, and comfortable
shoes. Space is limited and social distancing will be maintained.
The cost for Markeim members is $35. For non-members, $45.
