    The Seneca Lacrosse Club heldits 2011 All South Jersey YouthLacrosse Championship recentlyat Seneca High School. The cham-pionship welcomed over 150teams and 22 leagues from as farnorth as Springfield all the waydown to Cape May and between.

    The league has been aroundfor about seven years, but this isthe fifth year it (the champi-onship) has been held at SenecaHigh School, Brian Stahre, tour-nament chairman said. There isone league in all of South Jersey.

    The season starts March 1 andruns until the championship. Theclub is made up 150 teams from 22towns in South Jersey. This year,the championship had a prettygood turnout, drawing a crowd ofthousands of people to SenecaHigh School.

    It looked like Woodstock,Stahre said. Every parking spotand every curb spot was filled.

    Thats why we use Seneca, be-cause they have a large parkinglot, and they have 15 fields to ac-commodate the games.

    The teams range in grade fromkindergarten to eighth-grade,girls and boys. For the champi-onship each team plays about

    four to six games, totaling about600 to 900 games for the wholechampionship.

    There are two divisions in thechampionship, Stahre said.Theres the championship divi-sion and the festival division. Thechampionship division is for themore highly-seeded teams andthe festival division is for thefifth-grade and under teams.About half of the sixth-, seventh-and eighth-grade teams play thefestival and half play the champi-onship division.

    The tournament went from 8a.m. to 8 p.m. on Saturday andSunday, June 4 and 5, and therewere many vendors, concessionsand contests set up throughoutthe day.

    We have a fastest shot contestand a quick sticking contest, aswell as many others, Stahre said.Theres nothing that goes on afterthe games. Everyone is just gener-ally exhausted from playing theirgames.

    In the tournament, there are

    five championship divisions. Thesixth-, seventh- and eighth-gradeboys and the fifth-, sixth-, sev-enth- and eighth-grade girls makeup these divisions.

    The Seneca sixth-grade boysdid win for one of the champi-onship divisions, Stahre said.

    Freeholder Director BruceGarganio said that the countys2011 budget calling for multi-mil-lion dollar decreases in both taxesand spending translates intolower equalized tax rates for mostBurlington County towns, as wellas the lowest per capita spendingrate among all 21 counties in NewJersey.

    Burlington Countys per per-son spending level of $483.45would be the lowest among all 21counties in the state, with thenext lowest being $538.70 forBergen County. The highestwould be Cape May at $1,477.65per person.

    Once again, when you do themath, this budget is sensitive tothe taxpayer who is footing thebill, Garganio said. The num-bers dramatize the importanceand impact of cutting taxes andspending.

    The overall county propertytax rate is dropping from 30.99cents per $100 of equalized valueto 30.96 cents, and is decreasingfor the 21st year in a row.

    Under the states equalizedratio formula, this will result indecreases of varying amounts inthe local rates for 34 of the coun-tys 40 municipalities.

    The 2011 budget, which wasscheduled for a public hearingWednesday, June 8, calls for a $5.9million decrease in taxes, and adecrease in spending totaling $4.3million. When added together, taxcuts executed since 2007 total $8.5million; spending is being re-duced a total $9.6 million over thesame period.

    Burlington County historical-ly has enjoyed one of the lowestper capita spending levels in thestate, Garganio said, but the lat-

    est numbers also set us far apartfrom our closest neighbors.

    The per capita amount forCamden County is $628.82; forGloucester the number is $700.46;and for Mercer County the perperson calculation is $779.80.

    As for the equalized propertytax rates, the numbers can varysignificantly based on the statesformula for calculating on atown-to-town basis the assessedvalue of property against actualmarket value.

    No one can recall in recentmemory a situation where mostof the local tax rates would be

    cut, Garganio said. This budgetclearly answers to taxpayers at a

    time when relief is needed most.

    Too much to doPressing issues demand Congress time

    T

    he public is quick to jump on members of Congress for

    doing nothing when it comes to important issues con-

    fronting the country. The public needs to keep things inperspective. These folks have busy schedules.

    The most recent example:

    Congressman Anthony Weiner,

    who, according to The Associat-

    ed Press, had a lewd photo sent

    from his Twitter account and,

    according to other reports, has

    been sending out photos of

    himself shirtless along with

    explicit text messages.

    And lets not forget: Idaho Sen. Larry Craig and his misad-

    ventures in an airport mens room; another New York Con-

    gressman, Chris Lee, and his shirtless photo; former Congress-man Mark Foley and his interest in pages (and we dont mean

    the contents of a book); John Edwards and his mistress (al-

    though that might have taken up his time after he left Con-

    gress); and, well, you get the picture. The list could go on and

    on.

    How, as reasonable American citizens, can we expect these

    folks to address the economy, Social Security, taxes and more

    when they have all of these other things going on in their lives?

    And thats just Congress. Governors have to walk the Ap-

    palachian Trail, fly in helicopters to a kids baseball game and,

    well, entertain housekeepers.

    We humble regular people should recognize the super-human

    skills and abilities these individuals must possess to just

    squeeze all of these activities into a 24-hour day. Were lucky

    to make it home after work, walk the dog and catch part of a

    Phillies game. After that, were beat and ready to go to sleep.

    So the next time youre ready to lament government inaction,

    stop yourself and consider this: Could you run a government

    and still find time to shoot a hunting partner in the face? Didnt

    think so.

    According to the AmericanCamp Association, in the UnitedStates alone, there are 5,000 sum-mer day camps, up 90 percentfrom 20 years ago.

    Campers have a dizzying arrayof choices for their summer, fromacademic camps to technologycamps to art camps and every-

    thing in-between. For some chil-dren, it seems the lazy days ofsummer are just a myth.

    But at one South Jersey camp,campers are going back to basics.Campers at the NJ Audubon Ran-cocas Nature Center will experi-ence the classic childhood sum-mer playing outdoors and explor-ing nature. Just like children didbefore the age of the Internet,they will spend their summerchasing frogs, splashing in astream, and turning over logs.

    These campers will go home eachday with mud on their shoes andsmiles on their faces.

    All Rancocas Nature CenterSummer Camp programs are ledby experienced environmental ed-ucators. Each weeks program isa mix of age-appropriate educa-tional and fun activities, includ-

    ing outdoor discovery hikesthroughout the Sanctuarys ap-proximately 130 acres which in-cludes meadows, pine, and mixeddeciduous forests, streams andthe Rancocas Creek. Campersmay find themselves wading in astream sampling macroinverte-brates, tracking wildlife on a for-est trail, or catching insects andbutterflies in the meadow.

    Week-long, full-day camp ses-sions will be held from June 27 toAugust 12 for children in grades

    one through five. Each sessionhas an exciting theme such asEco-Explorations, Habitat Detec-tives, and The Good, The Bad, andthe Bug-ly.

    Children in grades fivethrough seven will have a chanceto earn a N.J. Audubon JuniorNaturalist Certificate through a

    full-day program of hands-on ac-tivities on such topics as N.J.wildlife, survival strategies, andnaturalist detective skills. Thisprogram is available August 1 to 5and August 8 to 12.

    For more information and reg-istration forms, visitwww.njaudubon.org/centers/ranco-cas, stop by the center on 794 Ran-cocas Road in Mt. Holly, or call261-2495.

    Space is limited. Please notethat session 3 is full.

    Rancocas Nature Center summer camps start June 27

    Your dog or cat can die of heatstroke within 15 minutes.

    Each summer, countless dogsand cats suffer needlessly andeven die in cars that become un-bearable ovens when it is hot out-side.

    On average summer days, the

    temperature can reach a broiling160 degrees inside your car inmere minutes.

    Remember to open windows,park in shaded areas and use theair conditioner leaving your car

    motor running is a violation ofN.J. state law if unattended.

    The heat build-up can kill ananimal very quickly. Even withwindows cracked a pet can diewithin 15 minutes.

    Animals do not perspire likewe do; they cool down only by

    panting to evaporate water fromtheir lungs through their throatand tongue.

    Please do not leave them in aparked car.

    Under N.J. state law, any per-

    son who inflicts unnecessary cru-elty upon a living creature byleaving it unattended in a vehicleunder inhumane conditions ad-verse to the health or welfare ofthe living animal or creature is acrime of 4-22-17A ( 3 ) a disorderlyperson offense and subject to ar-

    rest and prosecution, the maxi-mum fine is $ 1,000, up to 30 dayscommunity service and 6 months

    jail time or all of the above.To report animal abuse, call
