Crime
Down 17 percent
from last year. PAGE 2
By NICK COHEN
The Medford Sun
For one week of the year, the
darkness and quiet of the Pine
Barrens are replaced with the
sounds of carousels, carnival
games and the aroma of home-
cooked goodies. That week was
last week as the Pine Barrens Fes-
tival celebrated 25 years.
Its been a great success, an-
other great community-building
event, Father Andrew Jamieson
of Church of the Holy Eucharist
said on the opening night of the
festival. We just want everyone
to turn out and enjoy a great time
with their families and children,
enjoy great food and great enter-
tainment. Its a great time.
The annual festival takes place
on the Church of The Holy Eu-
charists property and continues
to be the biggest event on the re-
gions calendar. Between 35,000
and 40,000 visitors were expected
to visit this year and enjoy the
family friendly atmosphere,
while supporting a good cause.
The money goes directly to
the parish and its upkeep for the
year. Its our biggest fundraiser
for the church, Jamieson said.
We need a new roof, with the
project beginning in September,
and $70,000 is slated for that so
were hoping the festival can go a
long way in raising that.
More than 450 volunteers do-

Ominous skies threatened patrons of the 25th annual Pine Barrens Festival on July 22. Food vendors, live music and rides from Majestic

Crime down
17 percent
over last year
By SHANNON CAULFIELD
The Medford Sun
Crime in Medford is down 17
percent from January to June,
with 30 fewer offenses than the
same time period last year, ac-
cording to the states Uniform
Crime Reporting statistics.
The most common offense re-
ported in 2012 was theft, with 113
incidents last year and 95 this
year.
According to Police Chief
Richard Meder, UCR only tracks
very specific crimes. However, the
decline in crimes is positive for
the township.
I think its a combination of
things. One thing I ask of my offi-
cers is to be more visible, to com-
municate with residents, and that
helps to bring [crime] down,
Meder said.
Aggravated assault is down 33
percent from last year, with six re-
ported crimes in 2012 and four
this year. Burglaries didnt de-
cline as much. Twenty four
crimes were reported this year
compared to 26 in 2012.
Meder stays up to date on the
UCR, checking it each month.
As the chief, I want to see
crime coming down. Im very
happy with that, he said. UCR is
one of the few statistical docu-
ments that helps us register these
things.
The countys initiatives play a
role in the decline as well.
According to Joel Bewley,
spokesman for the Burlington
County Prosecutors Office, the
county invested $4.8 million in
New World Systems a software,
hardware, training and support
company for local government
and public safety agencies using
a federal grant in 1996.
Departments in the county
have the option of using the sys-
tem, and a majority of them do, he
said. When residents dial 911, the
system locates where the call is
coming from. The information
from the call is entered into the
system by the dispatcher and the
proper authorities are sent to the
scene. The program allows direct
communication with an officer
and mobile data terminal located
in squad cars, and departments
can look back and analyze inci-

nate their time to the event from
both within and outside the
parish. The parish maintains all
the booths, and the only part of
the event run by an outside
source is the rides.
Majestic Midways continues
to be great in providing the rides,
and they draw a lot of people to
the festival, Jamieson said.
After 25 years, the thought may
be that not much would change
year to year, but for the first time
a classic car show was part of the
celebration.
We had more than 70 cars and
15 monster trucks, Jamieson
said. We hoped it would bring
more people, come see the cars
then check out the festival or get
something to eat. Were definitely
happy about it being a part of the
event.
Its not all funnel cakes and
games as each night of the festi-
val is dedicated to honoring a Vol-
unteer of the Year from the differ-
ent Pineland towns in the area.
Each town nominates two peo-
ple and the festival committee
makes the selection of who is Vol-
unteer of the Year, said Mary
Fischl, chairperson of the Cul-
ture and History and Nature Re-
sources tent at the festival, in ad-
dition to organizing Volunteers of
the Year. The award is given to
someone who has made an out-
standing contribution to the cul-
ture, history and natural re-
source of the Pine Barrens, Fis-
chl said.
Bob Egan was the recipient of
Medfords Volunteer of the Year
award.
Egan has served in leadership
roles for the Medford Youth Ath-
letic Association for the past 10
years, including the role of vice
president.
Most recently, Egan has served
as the president and founding
board member for the Medford
Celebrates Foundation.
The Medford Celebrates Foun-
dation has funded the Fourth of
July fireworks display in recent
years. The Foundation hopes to
fund other Medford community
events in the future.
