Week in Review: Primary Candidates, Baseball And a Helicopter Ride

For many, the week started with a day off, because of Memorial Day. The VFW held a ceremony on Monday, and Patch contributor Lilia Stantcheva was there to tell us about it. 

Here's a recap of what we saw throughout the rest of the week:

On Monday, Sue Marinello brought us a video and a review of The Barn Theatre's "The Drowsy Chaperone," as well as an interview with a local art teacher, and we caught up with the television show "Jerseylicious."

On Tuesday, we heard what board of education president Dr. Karen Cortellino had to say about the high school's outgoing assistant principal, met a volunteer EMT, reviewed the latest episode of "The Real Housewives of New Jersey," saw a retired Montville police officer take care of Vince Lombardi's grave, and watched Ryan Karl end a baseball game with one swing.

On Wednesday, we started our primary election coverage with an interview with township committee candidate Art Daughtry, reported an alleged armed robbery, spoke to the director of "The Drowsy Chaperone" at The Barn Theatre and saw Gov. Chris Christie take a controversial helicopter ride.

On Thursday, we saw an interview with mayor and township committee candidate Jim Sandham, saw the sixth presentation by the Lake Valhalla Club to the zoning board, reported that there were no injuries at a fire at Changebridge Condominiums at Montville and met 's new principal.

On Friday, we caught up with township committee candidate Deb Nielson as well as state senator Joe Pennacchio, met a junior fire fighter, saw an illustration of the tank behind the VFW and watched a baseball season come to its conclusion.

Check back with Patch tomorrow for a list of things to do this upcoming week.
