RESPECT FOR NATURE...The Township of Scotch Plains had its Arbor Day
Celebration at Terrill Middle School. The Environmental Commission organized the event. It included an Arbor Day Proclamation issued by Mayor
Nancy Malool, a lesson on the value of trees by Sal Trifiro, a talk about Native Americans and their respect for nature by Councilwoman Mary Depaola
(herself a Native American), and a yoga demonstration, (with the school kids and teachers participating) showing the relationship of movement to
being in harmony with nature, given by Megan Hait of the Yoga and Healing School of Scotch Plains. The school groundskeepers then planted two
crabapple trees. Pictured are Mayor Malool, Sal Trifiro and Councilwoman Depaola (seated) with Terrill students. Not shown is Megan Hait yoga
instructor.

Government Reform Thought:
Since matters aren't working out well for the public, perhaps teachers and police contract negotiations should be held in public, then voted on by the
public. - See Year-to-date Reform Thoughts.
