The Stony Brook-Millstone Wa-tershed Association is hosting its13th Annual Butterfly Festival onSaturday, Aug. 10 from 10 a.m. to 4p.m. on the 930-acre watershed re-serve in Hopewell Township.

The festival is the largest annu-al educational event at the

SBMWA, which began in 2002 as away to draw attention to the KateGorrie Butterfly House on the wa-tershed reserve and the year-round programming, as well asthe mission of the SBMWA, saidSuzanne Moran, special eventplanner at SBMWA.

“The underlying purpose of thefestival was to illuminate theadopted symbol of the environ-

ment and the challenges we facein the 21st century,” she said.“Butterflies, while not seeminglypart of our watershed mission,that of protecting the health of the water in our region, representboth the beauty and fragility of the environment.”

“Initially, the festival show-cased the magic of butterfliesthrough solid scientific concepts – 

adaptation, species diversity,metamorphosis and migration. Italso showcased the ease in whichwe can fortify our relationshipwith the natural world, such asbutterfly gardening, and, moreimportantly, the need for steward-ship, or caring for the environ-ment. In a fun-filled atmosphere,important ecological principlesare shared and people are remind-

ed simply that nature matters,”Moran said.

The theme for this year’s festi-val is “Metamorphosis,” whichsymbolizes the transformationthe watershed reserve will under-go upon the completion of itsLEED Platinum environmentalcenter, tentatively scheduled tobreak ground later this summer,according to Jim Waltman, execu-

tive director.“Individual action is the key to

protecting clean water and the en-vironment in our region,” he said.“Our future environmental centerand the sustainable technologiesit will employ will allow us tomodel smart strategies for savingenergy, water and the environ-ment for generations to come."

Meyer has served on

police force for 38 yearsstep down from his position.

“I've been here quite sometime, and I just feel that it's timefor me to relax a little bit andenjoy life,” he said. “It's time tomove on from here.”

In his letter to Pogorzelski, he

thanked all township and bor-ough officials, for all their sup-port throughout their time work-ing together.

“The Hopewell Township Po-lice Department is a fine organi-zation made up of very dedicatedindividuals; it has indeed been anhonor to serve these past eightyears as chief. It is my ferventhope that a sworn chief of policewill replace me; the men andwomen of the department de-serve that. There are very capa-

ble individuals within the depart-ment who would serve the citi-zens of Hopewell and the depart-ment very well as chief,” he said.

Meyer came to the police de-partment from Hamilton Town-ship in 1974, and was hired a yearlater, which, he stated, “was thebest thing that could have hap-pened to me.”

“Hopewell has not only been agreat place to work, but it hasalso been a great place to live andraise a family. The people of Hopewell Valley have much to bethankful for,” he said.

Meyer said discussions havebegun among township officialsas to who will replace him oncehe retires, but no formal decisionhas been made.

“I do expect within a month orso they will be really delving intoit and making a decision,” hesaid. “He or she would have tocome from inside the depart-ment.”

Meyer is a graduate of TheNew Jersey State Association of Chiefs of Police West Point Com-

mand and Leadership Program,The Northwestern UniversitySchool of Police Staff and Com-mand, The Northwestern Univer-

sity Executive Management Pro-gram, The FBI National Acade-my 208th Session, and The Mid-Atlantic Law Enforcement Exec-utive Development Seminar.

He holds a Bachelor of Sciencedegree in human services/ad-ministration of justice, a gradu-ate certificate in Homeland Secu-rity from Thomas Edison StateCollege, as well as a Master of ad-ministrative science degree from

Fairleigh Dickinson University.He also holds advanced certifi-

cation as a Law Enforcement Ex-ecutive from the New JerseyState Association of Chiefs of Po-lice. Although retiring from thedepartment, Meyer hopes to pur-sue another part-time or full-timecareer, and has thoroughly en-

 joyed his years at Hopewell’s po-lice department.

“Not only being chief, but justworking here, has been a wonder-ful experience,” he said.

“I've been really blessed in mycareer. Being able to rise and be-come a chief is a great cap on topof a long, rewarding career.”

The Second Amendment to the

U.S. Constitution states: “A well

regulated militia, being neces-

sary to the security of a free state, the

right of the people to keep and bear

arms shall not be infringed.”

It’s only 27 words, but it is perhaps

the Amendment that’s most open to in-terpretation.

Gun advocates focus on the phrase

“the right of the people” when making

their case for why citizens should be

allowed to own, and carry, guns. The

opposing side focuses on the word

“militia,” saying that the Amendment

in no way meant to reward free rights

for any citizen to own and carry a gun,

whenever and wherever they want.

Last week, local anti-gun groups

won a victory in court, when a federal

appeals court in Philadelphia upheld

New Jersey’s law that states residents

need to show a “justifiable need” tocarry a handgun in public.

The decision means that, even if 

you can legally own a gun, you can’t

carry it wherever you please, whenev-

er you please.

In a state with 8.87 million people – 

and high violence areas such as Cam-

den – this law is a good one, and this

court decision was the appropriate

one.

We’re all for equal rights for bearing

arms, within reason – but that’s a sub-

 ject for another day.

What we’re not for is wielding these

arms in public, with no legitimate pur-

pose. Police officers, security officers

and other officials are appropriate car-

riers of weapons in public. Everyone

else?

Kinda hard to justify, in our opinion,

so we’re glad the court agrees with

New Jersey’s law that forces peoplewho want to carry arms in public to

really prove that he or she needs it.

If they can prove a “justifiable

need” for doing so, then fine. Other-

wise, get real.

There isn’t much good that can

come of carrying a gun in public, so

we applaud the state for creating this

stringent law, and also applaud the

U.S. Court of Appeals in Philadelphia

for upholding it.

The law does not infringe upon citi-

zens’ right to bear arms, and there is

no solid argument against it.

Is there a ‘justifiable need?’Federal appeals court upholds law banning public gun carrying
