MTHS Starts New Tradition with Senior Walk A new tradition was started on June 14 at Manchester Township High School with the Senior Walk. Graduating seniors, wearing their caps and gowns, walked the halls of Ridgeway, Whiting, Manchester and Lakehurst elementary schools as the younger students cheered them on. The elementary students were clearly very excited to see the seniors. They held congratulatory signs, cheered, clapped and high fived the seniors. Some got hugs from older siblings and friends. Some of the seniors also hugged former teachers as they passed them in the halls. It was inspiring for both the seniors and the younger students. Administrators at the high school said they got the idea from another school’s video that was circulating on social media. A video of the MTHS Senior Walk is now posted on YouTube at https://youtu.be/3lU_5Ciu20I .

IRS Phone Scam Seniors walking at Manchester Twp Elementary School. Manchester Township—The Manchester Township Police Department recently became aware of an Internal Revenue Service (IRS) phone scam that has been reportedly taking place throughout the United States. The purpose of this release is to educate the public about the scam to prevent people from becoming victims. The way the scam works is that criminal entities contact residents via telephone claiming to be IRS employees or claiming to be working as agents on behalf of the IRS. During these phone calls the scammers attempt to obtain money Preschoolers at Whiting Elementary greet the seniors with and or personal information from residents by signs. attempting to frighten people with threats of law suits and or criminal arrests/warrants. Please be advised that THE IRS DOES NOT CONTACT PEOPLE BY PHONE. The IRS will send correspondence Retired/Substitute Teacher Mrs. Peggy Faluotico via certified mail with a green receipt card. If gets a hug from a former student. you have any questions about your personal taxes and they were prepared for you by an accountant or certified tax professional, contact them directly. There is no need for Manchester Seniors walking at Ridgeway Elementary School. Township residents to notify the Manchester Police Department about having received a phone call from a suspected scammer unless the resident provided them with their personal information (Social Security Number, Date of Birth, Bank account info, etc.) and or money. In these cases, a police report may be helpful in repairing an individual’s credit, and or obtaining a new SSN. Please be advised that Federal, and State and Local law enforcement agencies are aware of the above scam. You may also contact the IRS directly for questions or to report scams at 1-800-366-4484 or the following local offices: 732-660-0063 (Freehold Office) or at 609-989-0533 (Trenton Office). Again, it is best to report scams to the IRS directly as they have their own law enforcement component to investigate these scam calls which originate mostly out of the country. Reminder: DO NOT answer any calls that have a phone number that is unfamiliar to you. NEVER give ANY personal information over the phone. 4 June 17th, 2016 The Ocean County Gazette - www.ocgazette.news NEW EAST BAY AVENUE source: anne-elisabeth.com.au BRIDGE IN BARNEGAT A Point ARIES: 21st March & 20th April The most balanced way you feel would be to put things in place can Painting be at odds with what somebody else expects from you.

Sheldon Sheldon is a 5 yr old hound mix. He is very playful and has a lot of energy for a 5 yr old. He would do best with an active family that can run around with him all day. He would benefit greatly from obedience has his leash manners need a little work. He is also very strong even though he doesn’t look it. He likes most other dogs but would prefer a home without cats. SO, if you’re looking for an active pup please considering opening your hearts and home to Sheldon! Kids 10+

Ollie Ollie was adopted from us as a kitten, but returned in June after his owner developed allergies. An adorable black and white tuxedo cat, one-year- old Ollie will do just about anything to get your attention. He’s not too fond of life in a cage, so he likes to toss his toys around until he’s created a bit of chaos and then holler at you until you let him out. Once he’s out and about, though, he’s a most charming fellow who loves to have his cheeks scratched and get as much petting as he can handle. He’s an active guy, who likes to chase the laser light and jump at a string toy. He’s fine with other cats as long as they’re not too aggressive, and he’s used to being with kids as well. Recently, he developed a pretty bad urinary tract infection, so we have him on a special diet and he’s doing just fine again. He will need to eat special food for life to stay healthy and at his best, but we think he’s well worth the trouble. Please come in and meet this handsome little character soon. You’ll be very glad you did!

The Ocean County Board of Chosen Freeholders awarded a $3.7 million contract to Marbro Inc. to demolish the old bridge and construct the new one.

The County used $1 million from the state Department of Transportation to construct the span.

“The new span meets all state and federal requirements,” Kelly said. “With more than 250 bridges and culverts throughout the County, it’s a priority of the Board of Freeholders to make sure they are properly maintained.”
