P FRONT Welcome back By MARTY VALANIA NEWARK POST STAFF WRITER Pulling into the parking lot Monday morning I came to the realization that summer was over. Yes, my kids start school next week and the horrid weather early this week was October-like. Both are signals that fall isn't too far away. But the most obvious sign to me that summer was over were all the cars in our office/apartment parking lot. University of Delaware students are back in town. Can the scattered red party cups be far behind? It started with a trickle last week- Valania end and early into this week. But by Saturday it will be a deluge as the dorms open.

NEWARK POST ? PAGE 3 IN THE NEWS How does your garden grow? Gardens provide private oases for Newark area resi dents By CHRISTINE NEFF NEWARK POST STAFF WRITER Editor's note: This is the final article in a two-part series about gardens in the Newark area. Residential gardens in the Newark area and the peo ple that make them grow differ as much as the plants that make them up. A wildlife habitat. A New Orleans-inspired getaway. A country paradise. These scenes and more can be found at the homes of Newark area residents who have transformed their sub urban backyards into private oases. The oasis created by Pat Strahorn at her Starr Road home provides refuge for wildlife, as well as a beautiful outdoor set ting. It's a Backyard Wildlife Habitat certified by the National Wildlife Federation. As such, it makes use of mostly native plants and provides food, water and shelter to animals. Strahorn has seen a range of wildlife visit her garden, includ' ing hummingbirds, squirrels, blue jays and foxes on occasion. This summer, a pair of wrens nested in a bird box on site. Strahorn, a certified master gardener, believes home garden ing to be important for the envi ronment and the protection of these animals. "There is so much development destroying habitat that the birds and animals don't have a place to go," she said. She enjoys gardening for the exercise and calls the result a "work in progress." "I just like to . see things grow and be healthy,". she said. Driving down Kells Avenue in Newark, one would not expect a New Orleans-inspired getaway to be hiding behind an estab lished home on the street. But that's exactly what Mary and Paul Anderson have created. The Andersons started their home garden about three years ago in an attempt to deal with a drainage problem in their back- yard, said Mary Anderson. They worked with a'landscape designer and local resident, Lori Athey, to design a garden com plete with a stream and shallow pond , that has since become a home to goldfish, koi fish and other wildlife. "The frogs," said Anderson, "found the pond before we even filled it with water." It's also attracted heron and white egrets to the property. Forget-me-nots, water lilies, lotus and other water plants surround and embellish the pond, making for a tranquil scene. The garden has solved. the Andersons' drainage problem; a stream that runs into the pond collects rainwater runoff from the .house. And, said Anderson, it . makes for a relaxing at-home get away. "Every morning we come out here and have coffee," she said. Earlier this week, Dorothy and Stuart Sharkey drank their morn ing tea while looking out the kitchen windows onto the gar dens that surround their Covered Bridge Farms property. Over the last 14 years, Dorothy Sharkey has transformed the See GARDENS, 14 ~ Campus won't be lonely for long UD students' return this weekend Have you noticed a bit more foot traffic on Main Street, and a few more vehicles - many of them loaded down with mattresses and furniture - driving through town this week? The summer lull is coming to an end. This weekend, the University of Delaware campus arid the city of Newark returns to its typically lively state, as students come back to campus for the start of the fall semester. New students will be mov ing in to their on-campus dor- mitories on Saturday, Aug. 25. Returning students arrive on Sunday, Aug. 26, and classes for the fall semester begin on Tuesday, Aug. 28. This year's freshman class has 3,644 students from all 50 states and more than 100 coun tries. On move-in day, more than 700 volunteers will assist these students, and their fami- lies, as part of UD's Arrival Survival team. Volunteers include upper classmen who have moved in early; university .staff and mem bers of the Newark community, said Linda Wooters of UD's Residence Life. The volunteers will welcome students to UD, answer 'their questions about campus and - most importantly - help move their belongings into the dorms. It's a helping hand new stu dents and their families real ly appreciate, said Wooters. "People are so excited there's someone there to help them," she said, "especially in the buildings without elevators." Volunteers will be helping at Dickinson and Rodney Halls, the Russell Complex, Lane Hall, Thompson Hall, George Read Hall, Thomas McKean Hall, Ray Street and Christiana Towers. . Move-in starts at 8 a.m. on ? Saturday and Sunday and con - tinues through the day.

"We want to build the capac ity of after-school-age educators, whether they're in schools, cen ters or family daycare settings, to work with school-age youth in more effective ways," says Maria 'Pippidis, Extension family and consumer science educator for New Castle County.

Meney stated that the Colonial District opens the 2007-08 school year continuing to implement the changes approved in the refer endum in the fall of 2005 . A brand new, state-of the-art elementary school opened this summer and full day Kindergarten begins in District schools this month. Every classroom in the district will have air condi tioning. Reorganized atten dance patterns provide most students with schools closer to their homes. "By using McCullough as a middle school, we have also expand ed the seats available at the middle school level," Meney said in June. "This conversion also provides a more balanced distribution of middle school buildings throughout the dis trict.", Wrangle Hill Elementary School opened this week for the 2007 -08 school year. The new building is located on the west side of Route 1 and north of Route 72. Students who live south of Route 273 and generally west of Route 1 will attend schools closer to their homes. The school will help accommodate the growing population in that area of the district as well. ' The new building also . provides the additional classrooms needed for full day kindergarten that began District-wide in the fall of 2007 and creates more space for a growing middle school population. McCujlough Middle School is also 'providing more room for the increasing stu dent population. Meney stated that Colonial District will further revitalize its middle school program and imple ment expanded career educa tion programs at the sixth through eighth grade levels. Commodore Macdonough School in St. Georges has closed and will no longer be used for Colonial students. Wrangle Hill Elementary is identical to the award-winning Southern Elementary School that was opened in 200 1. The school was designed'by Tetra Tech Inc. of Delaware and was constructed by the EDiS Company of Wilmington. Valero Energy Corporation was recognized for their dem onstrated commitment to our community for donating the site for the school.

AUGUST 24, 2007 POST COLUMNIST . Welcome ' homer freshmen By JON BUZBY ....................... , ..... ~ ... NEWARK POST COLUMNIST. .. It's that time of year again \Vhen we Newarkers will open our ? anns to -3,668 eager, nervous, allrtoo-cool recent high school graduates. Mqst are big fish from small ponds, just like when I came here more than 20 years ago. Wep, welcome guppies, to the shark tank. Let me try to make the stay a little easier with some help ful hints. There ? are some things ~ freshmen need to know about our little city and, their new part-time home. It's pronounced New Ark (as in Noah's Ark). Newirk (as in it irks me when Buzby people pronounce it wrong) is a city in North Jersey. If you borrow a car please be aware that, like most ' big cities, our small city has one-way streets. The differenGe is if you do drive the wrong way ?here you won't get an obscene gesture from an onconililg car but instead might actually run over someone because nobody but freshmen look both ways on the one-way streets. So freshmen please do look both ways ?and also realize that not everyone knows how to read the "stop for pedestrians in cross walk" signs. Whether it's a city or univer sity parking meter, you don't qave enough time to rush into a store and get back out before you get a ticket. And it's true, you won't get your degree in four years until ? they are all paid up, just ask my college roommate. ' Edgar AlllUl Poe really did stay at the Deer Park Tavern. I have yet to meet anyone who can verify that, but I believed it in. 1985 and so should you today; If you are from out of state, below the canal is not really . a different country. And yes, ' you are paying twice as much for the exact same education as the- , Delaware native sitting_ next to you in cll!Ss. There really isn't a bad slice of pizza anywhere in town. There , are favorites of course, but no bad ones. The walk to the football sta dium for ?the first night game is much farther than it looks on the map you'll get at orientation. And men, make sure you use the marble wall so the walk back is bearable. And while at the football game! don't ask. There is no answer that makes sense as to why we play West Chester but not Delaware State. Don't ask for directions to the . famous Stone Balloon you saw during your initial visit on cam pus. And don't be suckered into buying a mug from an upperclass man for mug night. Besides, you are underage and won't drink on campus until you 'afe 21, right? You don't need your wallet to , visit our mall. Just a good parr of walking shoes, your sunglasses and an appreciation for one of the most beautiful landmarks on ' lUly campus in America. You will get used to the train 'roaring by if you live in Dickinson ,or Rodney Dorms. I rel1!ember my first night there when the train went past in the middle of the night - every single resident on . the floor unloaded into the hall way fearing a tornado. However, you'll never get used to waiting for it to cross when trying to get to class on time. . The most important person you'll meet early on is not the President; the Mayor, the head football coach or any of your pro fessors. It's the Resident Assistant (a.k.a. R.A.) on your floor. This is the person who will answer your quest~ons, alleviate fears and be your biggest support. I still keep in touch with mipe 20 years later. Before you complain about the dormitories, when I was a freshman we had no computers, no Internet and no cable teleVI sion. You were considered roy alty if you had a fridge or phone (attached . to the wall). And you had to use the me~ plan you paid for - .in the dining halls. And we didn't know what cell phones were. Seriously! Don't look forward to the two biggest nights of the, year in the city, Newark Nite and Fourth of July. We celebrate them after you go back to your real homes for the summer. In all seriousness though, wel ,come. and enjoy your stay. Most of you will spend at least four years with us, some probably more. I think you'll find our city/tOWn! campus a wonderful place to spend time. And who knows, maybe like this former New Jersey guppy, 'you'll never leave. , Jon Buzby's columns appear in newspapers and magazines around the' country as well as numerous1websites.

Tipping a canoe into a 50-degree lake. Hiking a mountain. Hiking a glacier. Launching a snowball in July. Wrestling a bear with their bare hands? Okay, that last one may be a stretch, but Boy Scouts in Troop 50 really did experience those other adventures and more . on a memorable trip to Alaska earlier this summer. Twenty-two Boy Scouts in the Newark-area troop and 18 adults set out on the once-in-a-lifetime journey on June 23. - The group flew into Fairbanks, Alaska, near the center of the state. They spent two days hiking in Denali National Park and did some sightseeing before embark ing on the real adventure: a five day canoe trip through virgin wilderness. In groups of 10, the adventur ers set off downriver. Two groups . , canoed the Tangle Lakes, while the others navigated the Gulkana River. They carried all of their food (mostly freeze-dried) and equipment in two-man canoes, drank filtered water from the river and slept on the riverbanks. They saw moose, caribou, griz zly bears, reindeer, bald eagles, fish - lots of fish - and the glori ous Alaskan scenery. - "It ~as awesome," said Daniel Jordan, 14, of the experience. The trip is known to Boy Scouts as a High Adventure. More than a year of planning went into it, and the troop held events through the year to 737-0724 ? Fax 737-9019 . raise money for expenses. Troop 50 goes on one High Adventure e!lch year. Members have been ocean kayaking in Maine, sailing in the Florida Keys and are planning a IO-day hiking trip to New Mexico next year. Assistant Scout Master Matt Ballintyn organized the Alaska trip. "I said, 'let's try to do something different this year,' and we picked the place furthest away," he said. Ballintyn said scouts trained for it by canoeing in the Lehigh River and the Chesapeake Bay. Before leaving, they took a course in bear safety, learning how to prepare and handle foods so as not to attract the deadly animals.

LANG NEWARK POST CONTRIBUTING WRITER Downtown Newark can be fun on the weekends, par ticularly this past Saturday, Aug.18., when the Newark Arts Alliance hosted its first kids arts carnival on the Academy Building Lawn. The event gave kids ages 4 to 12 the opportunity to experi ment, hands-on, with various kinds of art. There was a hint of autumn in the air. The sky was clear, sunlight bright, shadows sharply edged. NAA members, volunteers and local artists set up tables and laid down picnic cloths, art tools and art supplies. They also put up an open-air tent. 'Then they waited, hopeful. Would the kids come? Th'ey did. Like the surging tide on the beach, children went from one art activity to another. Sometimes they dragged th~ir parents behind them. Other times, the parents joined in the fun, encouraging their children to try it - be creative. The results were colorful, cha otic and noisy. It was great. It was classic Newark. Nancy Breslin, a photographer and NAA board member, set up a "make your own sun print" activ ity, explaining how sun prints are a cyanotypic proce'ss dating back to the 1840s, Sun-sensitive paper was laid out in the sun. Children selected objects and arranged them on top of the paper, pressing them against it with a clear piece of heavy glass. After several min utes, the sunlight caused a print to form. The prints - white shadows on dark blue paper - were hung to dry on a small tree. Sharon Acquaviva of "Southpaw Studio" painted designs on children's faces. Other activities included paint ing rock animals and wood mag nets. Children beaded and hand stamped and free-painted designs on backpacks and t-shiris. They made crazy artsy hats out of paper bags apd colorful add-ons. They also created a group mural. Homework help available I Noting ' the handprints on the group mural, a mother from Hockessin with two small, very busy, daughters nearby, com mented that her family made handprints on a white wall in the playroom each year and used a yardstick to measure each child's height. ~ OUTLOOK, from 8 ties over an eight-week period. A typical day is a combination of homework help or tutoring for academic support, physical activity and nutritious snacks, and a choice of 4-H projects. This daily schedule provides a well-rounded outlet that is often missing for many children in the after school hours. One of 4-H Afterschool's strengths is staff development and training. Local after school staff can receive training from 4-H Afterschool professionals in a wide range of topics including youth development, "hands-on" learning techniques. tQ use with youth, life skills development, discipline, health, nutrition, pro gram management, and recruit ing and training volunteers. By working with local4-H profes sionals, after school staff can design programs that meet their individual and program needs.

'Welcome back and good luck' ~ UPFRONT, from 1 the whole routine, began filtering back this week. Sure, they'll prob ably take off for the weekend when all the freshmen arrive, but they're moved in and here. New students will pour in Friday and Saturday excited for their first year in Newark. For some in town this is a dis appointing time of the year. There are more people, more traffic, less parking and less peace and quiet. There is no doubt that there is a change. However, many of us also wel come the influx of students. They bring a vibrancy that can only be felt in a college town - and Newark is a quality college town. The fact of the matter is that Newark isn't quite as sleepy dur ing the summer as it used to be anyway. The city has done much to bring people and events to Newark during the summer months. Last weekend's successful Bike and Blues Festival was just one exam~ pIe. Restaurants, hotels and retail businesses on Main Street and the surrounding area love to have peo ple in town. That won't be a prob lem now that school is starting. Having 20,000 more people in town can do wonders for a busi ness. Throw in six home football weekends and it's not hard to see why many businesses and resi dents alike look forward to return of school and the students. Maybe I enjoy the college atmosphere more than most. I do like college towns - but it's the stu dents that make a college town a college town. If they weren't here, it's doubtful that a lot of what we love about Newark would be here. Don't get me wrong. Like the students and professors, I enjoy the summer break. There's no ques tion that the pace slows somewhat - and it comes at a perfect time of the year. However, like most stu dents and professors, I'm looking forward to the school year starting again.
