SOUTHABINGTONTWP. -
It has been two years since the
Notice to Proceed papers
were signed for the bridge pro-
ject on Layton Road near U.S.
Routes 6 and11in South Abing-
ton Township. And nowit is
about to be completed. Accord-
ing to James May, district press
officer for PennDOT, the project
is mostly done, and the road is
back to normal.
When the Notice to Pro-
ceed was signed July 6, 2009,
the expected date for the project
to be done was April 27, 2011,
but drilling problems occurred,
which moved the date 75 days to
July11, according to May. The
expected cost of the project was
$2.3 million, but with the exten-
sion and the drilling problems, it
will actually total more than
$2.5 million.
All three lanes on the bridge
were opened Tuesday, June 28.
May said PennDOThas to final-
ize last-minute details by July11.
Another bridge in the area
recently had some work done as
well. On the bridge of the Penn-
sylvania Turnpike (Route 476)
over Routes 6 and11in Clarks
Summit, a hole opened up in the
southbound right lane.
Bill Capone, Director of
Communications at the Turn-
pike Commission, said, Drivers
need to knowthat the bridge is
still safe. Potholes occur some-
times on bridges. This is not a
structural issue, its an issue with
the deck.
Capone further explained that
there is also wooden decking
underneath the bridge to prevent
debris fromfalling on the road.
He said the deck is set to be
replaced in about a year and a
half. The Turnpike Commission
is monitoring the issue to make
sure it does not worsen. Turn-
pike employees were fixing the
pothole June 28 as well.

Andrews, adoptioncoordinator
at GriffinPondAnimal Shelter,
thinks one of their dogs, whohas
hadone legamputated, cangive
people hope whentheysee what
she has overcome.
I thinkshe canbe a great
inspirationfor people whomay
have togothroughthe same
thing, she said. People canbe
upliftedbythese animals.
Sienna, a10-year oldfemale
pitbull, is available for adoption
at GriffinPondAnimal Shelter,
967GriffinPondRd. Sienna
hadsuccessful surgerytoampu-
tate her hindlegin2008, after
she contracteda cancerous tu-
mor.
Andrews saidthat although
Sienna maybe missinga leg, she
is livinga normal, healthylife.
She does verywell withthree
legs, Andrews said. She is in
goodshape andis at anideal
weight.
Andrews addedthat the dog
will let youknowwhenshe is
tiredduringa walk. She will
stopwalking, turnaroundand
lookat youtoturnback, she
said.
WhenSiennas previous own-
ers were gettingdivorcedand
movingout of their residence,
theydecidedtosolicit a good
home. Unfortunately, the new
owners onlykept the dogfor 24
to48hours before bringingher
tothe shelter about eight weeks
ago.
Sienna is not fondof dogs, but
is verycompatible withand
enjoys the companyof cats. She
is alsohousebroken, spayedand
is uptodate onmost vaccina-
tions except for a rabies shot.
Andrews notedit is important
that the dogstayat her present
weight toavoidextra stress on
her three legs. She alsosaidthat
despite the deformity, the dog
does not require anyspecial care
beyonda soft quilt or bed.
The loss of her legdoesnt
reallyaffect her dailyliving,
Andrews said. Dogs andcats
are resilient. Theylive verywell
withamputations.
Andrews saidthe shelter will
have about one dogor cat each
year come inwithanamputa-
tion. The animal stands out as
unique, she said. There is
always that aw factor andpeo-
ple feel sorryfor them.
Sienna is ideal for someone
whoneeds a dogwhois easyto

leash, Andrews said.
The dogshouldbe compatible
withchildrensixandolder, as

Andrews encouragedpeople
toconsider adoptingolder dogs.
Theyhave a lot of great qual-

CLARKS SUMMIT - Choc-
olate lovers should take note
that one of the items to be
auctioned at the upcoming
12th annual Conservancy
Auction is a behind- the-
scenes tour of Chocolates
by Leopold Inc. in Mon-
trose. A chocolate tasting is
included in the tour, making
this a particularly sweet out-
ing for the winner.
The auction will
be held July 9, be-
ginning at 5:30 p.m.
on the lawn at the
corporate offices of
Allied Services in
the Abington Exec-
utive Park in Clarks
Summit. This years
auction will include
an array of exclu-
sive silent- and live-
auction items.
Bill Kern, Coun-
tryside Conservancy
executive director,
said, This year in
addition to our con-
cert tickets and items weve
had in the past, were trying
to have more intangible
items that you cant find
anywhere, like our behind
the- scenes tours. One that
were doing this year is a
tour of The Mtter Museum
at the College of Physicians
of Philadelphia. One of my
friends is a doctor and hes
going to give a guided tour,
along with a tour guide from
The Mutter, and also take
the winning bidders over to
the first hospital in the Unit-
ed States and give them a
tour of that as well.
Other items featured at the
years auction will include a
Pacific Northwest getaway; a
kayak from Endless
Mountain Outfitters; a
guided tour of the
most scenic plac-
es in Wyoming
County; tickets to the Metro-
politan Opera with a back-
stage tour; and art by Mark
Webber, Bryce Powers, An-
drew Medina, Peter Hoffer
and Brooke Wandall.
Well have a wide variety
of items to accommodate all
budget levels, said Kern.
Art to be auctioned will
include sculpture, pottery,
photography and painting,
which will likely add up to
35 pieces of art, said Kern.
We plan to have 18 offer-
ings in the live auction por-
tion and probably 65 to 70
of all different types of
items in the silent auction
portion.
Kerns goal for this years
fundraiser is to net $40,000,
after all expenses are paid.
He said, That will go a
long way. Last year we
raised approximately
$30,000, but weve made
some changes and I think we
can do even more this year.
The auction is Countryside
Conservancys main fun-
draiser, and was the only
fundraiser, until last year
when the organization in-
troduced the Go Green Bike
Tour. In addition to mem-
bership donations, this is the
big fundraiser that helps to
keep the office going, the
lights on, the doors open,
and it allows us to work on
projects, such as the Trolley
Trail Project, he added.
Allied Services has do-
nated the space, staff to help
with setup, a shrimp cocktail
table from their catering
department and they have
also donated
printing of the
postcards and
invitations,
said Kern. Its
a huge help
and were very
grateful. The
added contribu-
tion they make
with printing
costs really
helps us out.
The Country-
side Conser-
vancy is a
501(c)(3) non-
profit orga-
nization dedicated to pro-
tecting lands and waters in
and near the Tunkhannock

public benefit now, and for
the future. The Conservancy
works in Lackawanna, Sus-
quehanna and Wyoming
Counties in northeastern
Pennsylvania.

scholarship, Kristyns aunt,
Ruth Mancuso of Tunkhan-
nock, thought a race would be
a great way to honor her niece.
The family wants to broaden
the scope of the race in 2012
and be able to give its proceeds
to multiple people, especially
since the recipients will be
Kristyns classmates.
Next year we want to
change the name of the schol-
arship to The Celebration of
Life Scholarship in Honor of
Kristyn E. Kromko, said
Mancuso. She was absolute
sunshine. Whenever she walk-
ed into a room, it just lit up.
Mancuso shared fond me-
mories of Kromko. She was
like a daughter to me. She was
my little petunia. We always
went on vacation together, our
two families went. I got her on
her first roller coaster. I re-
member when we went to
Cedar Point in Ohio, one of the
roller coaster rides got stuck
and Kristyn looked so scared.
She was only about 12 at the
time. Then when we got off,
shes like, Lets go on again.
People participating in the
July16 race can do a two-mile
walk or a two-mile run. Pre-
registration is available or par-
ticipants can sign up at the
event from7 to 8:30 a.m.
Cost is $15 and the first 100
registered will receive a free
T-shirt, which is being de-
signed by Kristyns friend, Kate
Grow. There are also trophies
and medals to be awarded for
females and males of many
different age groups and cate-
gories. All ages are welcome.
Family and friends of Kris-
tyn have been publicizing the
event by posting and handing
out flyers and sponsorship
letters. Along with designing
the T-shirts, Growalso created
a social media page on Face-
book. Suzan Snyder, who
works for On Track Design,
designed a website, www.fork-
ristyn.com. Mancuso said
within the first hour, 40 people
said they were attending on the
Facebook site, and nowmore
than 250.
Everyone has been so sup-
portive, the school adminis-
trators, family, her friends have
been wonderful and the com-
munity as a whole, said Man-
cuso. I just thought this would
be a great way to get everyone
involved.
Mike Showat Baptist Bible
College has been working with
Mancuso to make the race
happen. Rob Ahrens, who
manages the National Running
Center in Clarks Summit, and
Jacob Kanavy, who works
there, have been very helpful,
according to Mancuso, as has
Randy White, a track coach
fromTunkhannock. Bridget
White will also be helping with
registration at the event.
Mancuso said, I just want
everyone to enjoy themselves
and celebrate the life of Kris-
tyn.

vens did not only play music
at school; he also sat in with
bands in the area, earning his
first union card as a musician.
As a thespian, he went on to
roles in prime time television
shows and movies, respec-
tively, including Star Trek,
NBCs Richard Boone
Show, The Outer Limits,
Twilight Zone, Mission:
Impossible, and The Bare-
foot Contessa with Hum-
phrey Bogart, among numer-
ous others.
Stevens said, I dont re-
member a time when I didnt
want to be an actor. I suppose
Ive always wanted to act.
While in
high school,
Stevens was
given a lead-
ing role in an
operetta di-
rected by
Virginia
Rushmore. He
said other
teachers in-
spired him to
follow his
dream of be-
ing an actor as
well, such as
Janet E. Mur-
phy and Gus-
tav Yeager.
Stevens re-
called that he, Fred Gabriel
and Bob Dibble called them-
selves The Three Musk-
eteers because of their close
friendship. All three were on
the football team, the year-
book staff and The Aorta,
which was the school newspa-
per. Stevens was also a proud
member of the fencing team.
After high school, Stevens
joined the Navy and attended
the Naval Academy. While
there he met Bob Porterfield,
who owned the Barter Theatre
in Virginia. Stevens then de-
cided to take his desire to act
seriously. After starting at the
Barter Theatre, he attended
the Neighborhood Playhouse
of New York on a scholarship.
However, he had to interrupt
his career to serve as a pilot in
World War II.
Stevens said has written a
book about his life, primarily
for his children, which he
would like to see published.
The actor thinks it would in-
trigue a lot of people because
it comes from a man who has
worked with almost everyone
of his generation in Holly-
wood.
Stevens said that when he
lived in Clarks Summit it was
a quiet little town with horses
the dominant means of trans-
portation. He recalled two
hardware stores: Edwards and
Bunnells. Stevens was happy
to hear Bunnells was still in
business, because he was
friends with second gener-
ation owner Loyal Bunnell.
The last time Stevens was in
Clarks Summit about 15 years
ago, he said he was amazed at
all of the changes through the
main part of town, but he
thought where he lived still
looked the same. At the time,
he and some of his family
members were visiting Phila-
delphia, rented a car, and
headed north on the Pa .Turn-
pike. Stevens has three sons,
two in southern California,
and one in San Francisco.
Stevens advice to all aspir-
ing actors is, First of all,
pursue your dream. Dont let
anything deter you from that.
And as far as the actual per-
forming aspect is concerned,
for me, economy has been
key. Less is best.

FACTORYVILLE - At the
Factoryville Borough Coun-
cil meeting held June 8,
resident Ed Novakowski,
who lives on Lindley Ave-
nue, complained about get-
ting water in his basement
from flooding. Councilman
Bill Edwards explained that
it is caused by need for a
new steel pipe on Lindley
Avenue. Its existing plastic
pipe is filled with rocks and
the water is not flowing to
the creek. He also said that
there is also a lack of catch
basins on Reynolds Street.
Community development
director Liz Ratchford said
that she called State Repre-
sentative Sid Michaels Ka-
vulich about a ballpark price
to fix Lindley Avenue and
Reynolds Street. If you put
the two packages together,
youre talking over $50,000,
just ballpark, she said.
Ratchford also said that
Kavulichs representative will
try to find money from H20
PA, which includes help
from storm water programs.
That would be 50 percent
if theres any money left in
the program. If he can find
us money, hell find it, and
hell push for us to get it.
Manager Mary Ellen
Buckbee mentioned a quote
for $3,100 to install soil on
the right side of Reynolds
Street, compact material,
clean out debris from the
existing pipes and install
blacktop curbing at Rey-
nolds and Lindley. My
recommendation right now
is to choose the first couple
priorities on the Reynolds
Street issue because I think
the Lindley Street is more
urgent, and see if the first
couple remedies on the Rey-
nolds situation alleviate the
problem enough where we
can wait until more money
becomes available for storm
water grants, said Buckbee.
The board agreed to allow
their engineer, Bob Doble,
to review Reynolds Street
and Lindley Avenue .
Ratchford mentioned that
she talked with Doble on
the phone many times and
she had a contract grant for
President Chuck Wrobel to
sign. In a few months, the
board will have a report
from them with all the
problems listed and a pri-
ority schedule as part of the
Going Greener Storm Water
Project.
In her community devel-
opment report, Ratchford
also said that PennDot will
install the new inlet and
pipes. The pipe will go a
different routea better
routeto get to the creek,
she said. They (PennDot)
agreed theyll do the in-
stallation if we pay for all
the materials.
Ratchford said that Penn-
Dot wanted the board to get
permission from Drake Well
Drilling Inc. and Aqua
Pennsylvania and noted that
she sent permission forms
to both companies. Drake
already signed his. Aqua
had to go back to the com-
pany so that it could be
signed by the president of
the company but the engi-
neer didnt think there
would be a problem with
that, said Ratchford.

DALTON - At the Dalton
Borough Council meeting
held June 9, Lackawanna
Trail students Jesse Morvan
and Richard Pollock per-
formed the national anthem
with the instruments that
helped them become state
champions. Cornet player
Jesse Morvan won second
place for Best Cornet Player
of the State. Tenor saxo-
phone player Richard Pollock
won first place for Best Ten-
or Saxophone Player of the
State.
In other business, Lacka-
wanna Trail High School
boys basketball coach An-
drew Kettel asked the board
for use of the Dalton Stream-
side Park for a three-on-three
basketball tournament in
conjunction with the Dalton
Firemens Carnival July 16.
He mentioned that the tour-
nament will be for boys and
girls spanning from grades
five through 12. He said he
and his assistant coach at
Lackawanna Trail will run
the tournament.
The money raised from
the three-on-three tourna-
ment will go toward our pro-
gram, and we do all kinds of
things throughout the season
for our players, he said.
Kettel also requested to
rent a pavilion facility to
have a stand for water and
Gatorade along with an area
to do some bookkeeping. I
think it would be a great day.
We will start around nine
oclock in the morning, said
Kettel. The kids will get a
minimum of three games and
we take the top four teams
per playoff. Well have T-
shirts for the players along
with some trophies that well
give out to the winners.
Dalton board president Bill
Salva told Kettel he needs to
ask the Dalton Fire Company
permission to have the tour-
nament.
Firefighter Mark Sujkow-
ski said, The carnival
doesnt kick off until 6
oclock (p.m.). I did mention
the idea to our president. He
talked to various board mem-
bers. There were no real
problems at our end.
In other business, Solicitor
Frank Bolock reported that
the Department of Communi-
ty Economic Development
approved the boards loan
proceedings for paving the
roads at Huntington Woods.
Bolock also mentioned that
he delivered the paving con-
tract to WACO, the paving
contractor. Theyre in the
process of pulling together
their bonding and insurance
requirements, said Bolock.
We should have the contract
signed by next week. He
also mentioned that they will
have a paving schedule soon.
In new business, board
member Lorraine Daniels
mentioned that she wants
anyone having a yard sale on
weekends to refrain from
placing unsold items out for
collection a week prior to
garbage pickup on Fridays.
People are asked to clean any
unsold items and then place
them outside 24 hours prior
to garbage collection day.
Daniels also mentioned
that Mayor James Gray and
Dalton Business Professional
Association president Gail
Rees presented two scholar-
ships to two Dalton students.
Daniels acknowledged Ayla-
na Craig-Lucas and Emma
Peters, who earned the schol-
arships. .

CLARKS SUMMIT - The
Abington Heights School Dis-
trict and Abington Heights
Educational Association have
been unable to settle a griev-
ance concerning the Introduc-
tory Chinese course offered to
students in grades seven
through 12.
The grievance was the topic
of discussion during the Abing-
ton Heights School Board
meeting June 22.
The district was able to pro-
vide the class for the first time
during the 2010-11 school year
as a result of a partnership with
The University of Scranton,
which has been working with
Chinas Henan College of Edu-
cation.
The college sent two teachers
to the area, with one, Xiaojing
(Irene) Wang, teaching at
Abington Heights.
Because Wang is not a bar-
gaining unit member, the asso-
ciation filed a grievance and
unfair labor practice against the
district.
The district offered the asso-
ciation a settlement that guar-
anteed as long as they are of-
fering the course no other
teachers in the foreign lan-
guage department will be fur-
loughed and the district will
never, in any way, use this mat-
ter in the future for any purpose
against the union.
Those terms were not
enough for the association,
they wanted to add on to that,
that we had to agree that at the
end of this school year (2011-
12) if the program were to con-
tinue, which we highly think is
unlikely, we had to have a bar-
gaining unit member teach the
class, said Superintendent
Michael Mahon.
Despite Mahons feeling that
the program was unlikely to
continue past the 2011-12
school year, the term was not
added, and now both parties
awaiting a hearing date.
The issue of the grievance
first came up during the
boards work session, held June
1, in a heated argument that
resulted in Mahon and Abing-
ton Heights Educational Asso-
ciation President Marcelle
Genovese agreeing that from
now on, during each meeting,
in the superintendents report
there will be a public discus-
sion of grievances filed by the
association.
Mahon will be working in
chronological order, backward,
from the grievance most re-
cently filed.
On Wednesday, in addition to
discussing the Chinese course,
Mahon also discussed griev-
ance 10:07, which is the latest
grievance filed.
It was filed on behalf of the
middle school team teachers
who claim to have lost individ-
ual planning time due to Dr.
Clyde Colwells Thematic Im-
plementation Meeting times
and dates for the 2010-11
school year. The action also
covers curriculum work or-
dered by Dr. Colwell for mid-
dle school teachers and not
compensated by the district.
Mahon compared the griev-
ance with grievance 09:09 that
was filed on behalf of a group
of English teachers at Abington
Heights High School who
claimed to have lost daily plan-
ning time during the 2009-10
school year.
The English department
came to a legitimate disagree-
ment on how to proceed with
something called the junior
writers workshop, explained
Mahon. And they did what I
think was a remarkably positive
thing - they sent Dr. Colwell an
email asking him, Could you
help us out?
Colwell met with the teach-
ers during their planning time
twice to help them with the
issue.
And, the union filed a griev-
anceand the grievance says
Dr. Colwell should not be talk-
ing to our teachers during their
planning time to help them
plan their instruction, said
Mahon.
The grievance sought addi-
tional compensation for the
teachers.
Genovese responded, saying
that the Thematic Implementa-
tion Meetings dealt mainly
with curriculum writing, which
is what led the filing of the
grievance.
The district is well aware in
our contract there is a section
that says if youre going to ask
teachers to do curriculum work
you, one, give them compensa-
tion, or, two, release them from
their duties from that day, or,
three, provide credits on the
salary scale. The district did
not provide any credits on the
salary scale, did not release
them from the day, and, there-
fore, we asked that they be
compensated, said Genovese.
The discussion on grievances
will continue during the boards
meeting scheduled for July 20.
AH board begins grievance discussions
BY DON MCGLYNN
JERMYN- At the Lakeland
school board meeting held June
22, the school directors unani-
mously accepted, in a 7-0 vote,
the resignation of Lakeland
High School girls soccer coach
Joseph Kovaleski, according to
superintendent Dr. Margaret
Billings-Jones. The board also
approved a $17.1million budget
for the upcoming school year.
Kovaleski had also served as
a substitute maintenance person
at the school. Police charged
Kovaleski, a Scott Township
resident, with indecent expo-
sure, open lewdness and dis-
orderly conduct after he alleg-
edly exposed himself inside a
Burger King restaurant in Dick-
son City. The coach, 61, was
charged May 29 and a prelimi-
nary hearing is scheduled for
June 29 at 9:45 a.m.
Regarding the annual budget,
property taxes will remain at 91
mills. One Mill equals $1for
every $1,000 of assessed prop-
erty value. The board was able
to avoid a budget increase by
reducing costs not directly
affecting student programming,
according to Dr. Billings-Jones.
Another method by which
she said they avoided an in-
crease was by choosing not to
replace two of the three faculty
positions open after retirements
the board accepted this year.
Lakeland Elementary third-
grade teacher Kathleen Hryhor-
coff and sixth-grade teacher
Sue Reuther are retiring but
will not be replaced. The only
teacher replaced will be Lake-
land High School reading tutor
Ann Marie Salitski.
In other business, the board
accepted James Civirotto from
Lake Wallenpaupack as the
newassistant principal.

Abington Heights
High School student
Kaitlyn Kulp, a junior
and member of SADD:
Students Against De-
structive Decisions,
received a $1,000 schol-
arship award from Ke-
vin Cleary, President of
Save-A-Life. Save-A-
Life Lackawanna Coun-
ty is a not-for-profit
organization dedicated
to promoting suicide
awareness by raising
money for scholarships
for high school students
who promote such edu-
cation in their schools
and communities. Addi-
tional goals of the
group are to financially
assist local families
who have been directly
affected by a suicide.
An invitation was
sent to all area schools
to conduct some type
of suicide awareness
within their school dis-
trict. The ideas were to
be presented to Save-A-
Life, and the best idea
was awarded a $1,000
scholarship. Kaitlyn
and a few other SADD
members sponsored a
Suicide Awareness
Walk at the Abington
Heights High School
track, and they decided
to make it a fundraiser
for the Save-A-life
foundation. After
months of planning and
sponsor searching, the
event unfolded April
30. Walkers were asked
to make a donation. In
addition, T-shirts were
sold, games were
played and food was
provided. Local busi-
nesses made contribu-
tions as well. Suicide
prevention message
posters lined the track
with each message
sponsored by a local
donor. A total of $1,500
was raised and donated
to Save-A-Life via
SADD.

The transitional first grade

dents inthe AbingtonHeights
School District believedtoneed

fore enteringfirst grade and
after completingkindergarten.
Several members of the com-
munity, manythe parents of
childrenwhoparticipatedinthe
class, spoke duringWednesdays
meetingandrequestedthat the
boardreconsider cuttingthe
program.
It was a decisionwe strug-
gledwithtoput himintransi-
tion, saidCathyCapwell,
whose sonattendedtransitional

tunate enoughtobe intransition.
Transitionaffordedhimthe
opportunitytogrowhis social
skills througheducation
Transitiongave himconfidence
inhimself andwithhis peers. He
is nowa veryconfident individ-
ual andknows howtohandle
situations appropriately. My
husbandandI bothfeel that this
confidence andawareness is a
direct result of his year intransi-
tion. Our sonregularlycom-
ments positivelyonhis year in

RetiredAbingtonHeights
teacher TomBroganwas alsoin
attendance tospeakonbehalf of
the program. He questionedthe
affect the cut will have, not only
onthe students whowouldhave
attendedthe transitional first
grade, but alsoonthe students
newteachers andthe class-
mates.
Its a programthat works,
andyoure goingtohurt our kids
bygettingridof it, saidBrogan.
If youput themintoa regular
first grade, those kids that are
not developmentallyreadywill
not succeedandthe teacher will
have twochoices. Theycanslow
downtotryandreachthat kid,
andthenthe better kids are held
back, or theycanspeedupand
lose those kids.
I will tell youI have talked
tothe teachers. Theyare not at
all infavor of this change.
Superintendent Michael Ma-
hondidnot disagree withthe
qualityof the program, but said
that he believes the students who
wouldhave beenenrolledinthe
transitional class next year will
be able tosucceedinfirst grade.
I know, right now, we have
better, more engagingmaterials,
anda far more comprehensive
andinterestingcurriculum, in
the hands of our teachers, that is
differentiatedverycarefullyby

more easily, saidMahon.
Fundamentally, I dobelieve
we will be doinga service. And
we are ready, andour teachers

HONORS AND AWARDS
CLARKSSUMMIT- This
summer, while many of his
classmates are taking time off
fromtheir schoolwork, in-
coming Abington Heights
High School senior Jake Fitz-
patrick will be immersing
himself in his foreign lan-
guage studies.
The 18-year-old Clarks
Summit resident was awarded
one of 650 National Security
Language Initiative for Youth
Scholarships for 2011-2012.
The scholarship will fi-
nance Fitzpatricks trip to
Russia this summer, where he
will study Russian at the Ka-
zan Federal University in
Kazan, Russia.
Ever since I started taking
(Russian) my Russian teacher
promised that we would go
someday, said Fitzpatrick.
But, since there are hard
economic times that idea
seemed less and less like-
lySo I just decided to do it
on my own, and do it through
this scholarship.
Fitzpatrick said it was Amy
Wojcik, his Russian teacher
since seventh grade, who first
told himabout the scholarship
in September.
I never would have known
about it if it wasnt for her, I
owe it all to her, said Fitz-
patrick.
Once
learning
about this
opportunity,
he quickly
began the
application
process,
which in-
cluded es-
says, surveys and face-to-face
interviews.
According to the National
Security Language Initiative
for Youth website, each appli-
cation is read by at least two
individuals who have been
trained to evaluate and score
applications. Evaluators are
asked to assess applicants
level of commitment and
motivation for language learn-
ing and demonstrated cultural
awareness and curiosity. Eval-
uators reviewa candidates
previous academic course-
work, essays, letter to host
family, parents statement and
teacher recommendation.
Selections are based on the
applicants enthusiasmfor
learning, strong sense of char-
acter and will to succeed. A
selection panel at American
Councils headquarters in
Washington, D.Cthen reviews
application materials and
interviewreports.
While in Russia he will take
part in a number of activities,
including attending intensive
language classes, living with a
host family, participating in
group projects, going into the
community, attending cultural
events and doing some histor-
ical visitation.
When the programis over
he said he hopes to come
away with better language
skills and a better understand-
ing of the culture that hes had
a large interest in for the last
five years.
I think if he goes into it
with an open mind, hell really
like it and it will have a pro-
found impact on him, said
Wojcik.
The scholarship began in
2006, and according to Woj-
cik, Fitzpatrick is the first
Abington Heights High
School student to be awarded

ment, explained Jo Ann Walc-

Summer camps have
started at the Dietrich and
the theater is a flurry of
activity.
In Acting Camp for
Kids, young thespians
learned how to create
characters and a play.
They also learned about
the instruments of an ac-
tor while playing theater
games, story telling and
more. At the end of the
week, students families
and friends were treated
to their original produc-
tion Worlds Meet in Ba-
nana Universe. The play
was excellent. How could
it not be, with unique
characters including Blue
Spider, Mr. Donut, Witch
Pirate, Flower Clown,
Othellus and the Bunny
of Doom?
If your child is interest-
ed in the theater arts, reg-
ister him or her for our
next Acting Camp for
Kids, which will be held
during the week of July
25 to 29. These camps
always show me how
much participating in the
theater arts builds chil-
drens confidence.
Students were also able
to experience the digital
arts last week at the Die-
trich. One of our favorite
visiting artists, Rand
Whipple of Box of Light
Theatre, was with us for
Crazy Commercials Camp
and Digital Arts Camp.
Both camps were filled
with just the most cre-
ative minds.
In Crazy Commercials,
students became experts
in creating digital film.
They learned about fram-
ing a shot, editing, cre-
ating sound effects and
using special effects. One
group of girls created a
short film about the
Strawberry Ninjas. An-
other group created a
short called The Attack
of the Big Sister. A few
students also pitched a
product called Face
Fuzz.
In Digital Arts Camp,
children also created a
host of projects. Students
learned how to build and
program LEGO robots.
They created claymation
films and made digital
films and music videos.
In addition to camps,
the Dietrich Childrens
Theatre premiered its lat-
est production, Coyote:
A Native American Trick-
ster Tale, this past week-
end.

eystone College pre-
pares to welcome
some of the countrys
most talented writers and
artists who are going to be
Gathering on the campus
this summer.
For the fifth
consecutive year,
the college will
host The Gather-
ing, a literary
conference sched-
uled July 14 to 17.
Its a literature
conference, but
we look at all of
the arts, said The
Gathering pro-
gram director
Suzanne Fisher Staples.
We look at film, dance,
music, visual arts and all of
it is a way of just sort of
standing in a different posi-
tion to look at creativity.
We try to look at the
whole creative process from
lots of different viewpoints,
and primarily we do it
through a theme.
Those involved choose a
different theme for the con-
ference every year, this
years theme,
Physical and
Metaphysical
Home: Memory,
Grace and Struc-
ture.
We will talk
about how the idea
of home, whatever
it means to any
individual, gives
rise to creative
impulse, said
Fisher Staples.
This years theme has giv-
en the college a chance to
bring in an artist working in
a medium that has never
been represented at the event
before.

just loved to hear Coyote
howlI think a few kids
joined in with him. My
favorite part of the show
was near the end when
the crows, and Coyote
brought out instruments
and we joined them in
singing a song.
It was definitely a won-

GREELEY- This summer,
Local actor Bob Hughes will
again take a look at the life of
his late friend, playwright and
actor Jason Miller.
Greeley Inn Summer The-
atre will present the play Go
Irish! The Purgatory Diaries
of Jason Miller, as well as an
Evening of One-Act Comedi-
es from July 2 to August 31.
Go Irish! is a one man
play about the life of Jason
Miller, the Pulitzer Prize
winning playwright of That
Championship Season, re-
cently revived on Broadway
in 2011, and Academy Award
nominated actor for The
Exorcist.
Hughes said that the revival
of the play allows him to
continue to workshop it and
add nuance to the perform-
ance. He has been acting in
the role for several years and
said that he is starting to re-
fine his skills. According to a
review of his performance in
March 2011, his work has
paid off.
Jack Shaw, a director, actor
and writer, said of his per-
formance, You come to ex-
pect a pattern in theater, espe-
cially in drama, but some-
times, theatre breaks the pat-
tern. This is one of those
times.
Hughes described Go
Irish! as a cautionary tale
of the pitfalls of celebrity.
In the play, directed by
Suzanne Ford, the Triple
NEPTA award -winning ac-
tress, the Jason Miller walks
the audience humorously
through Purgatory, his shat-
tered career and retiring
home to Scranton. Hughes
says that he feels some pres-
sure acting in this role.
Miller was my friend and I
carry the weight on my
back, said Hughes.
Featured in this summer
theatre program are two one-
act comedies starring Hughes
and Ford. The first, Its A
Sin To Tell A Lie, was writ-
ten by Miller. It is about an
elderly couple meeting in a
doctors office who become
friends.
Millers sense of language
is poetic. Its A Sin To Tell A
Lie is a charming play, said
Hughes.
The second one-act come-
dy, Johnny and Wilma, is a
comedy with types, in this
case a married couple, ac-
cording to Hughes. Hes an
ex-Marine going through an
emotional crisis, and shes an
over-achieving womanwho is
more confident than he, said
Hughes.
These plays will be per-
formed at the Greeley Inn, a
place that has not seen a play
attempted until now, accord-
ing to Hughes. It has a pro-
scenium stage that has been
used for mostly musical thea-
ter or music performance,
said Hughes.
We like to go to where the
people are, said Hughes.
Milford comes alive in the
summer, which is why we are
going there.
All shows are Wednesdays
at 8 p.m., Sundays at 2 p.m.,
and every other Saturday,
beginning July 2 at 8 p.m.
Go Irish! runs Saturday,
July 2, 16, 30, August 13

CALENDAR
The Gathering will wel-
come architect Peter Bohlin,
a founding principal of the
architecture firm Bohlin
Cywinski Jackson, with of-
fices in Wilkes-Barre, Pitts-
burgh, Philadelphia, Seattle
and San Francisco.
In addition to designing
buildings for colleges, uni-
versities and government
offices across the country,
Bohlin is known for design-
ing the Apple Computer
stores.
When we were thinking
about the concept of home,
we were thinking about the
people who use the idea of
what home is in their work,
said Fisher Staples.
Hes a wonderful speaker,
and hell be talking about
how people relate to space,
how space defines people,
and how people define the
spaces where they live and
work.
Bohlin will be joined by
United States Poet Laureate
and Pulitzer Prize winner
Ted Kooser, architect and
writer Witold Rybczynski
and writers Craig Nova, Su-
san Cooper, Sarah Rossbach,
Karen Blomain and Craig
Czury.
Fisher Staples said she is
excited about this years li-
neup, and feels they will help
the conference continue its
streak of bringing in artists
who do more than just lec-
ture.
One of the things we fo-
cus on is trying to make sure
the writers who are speak-
ers sort of fit into the cul-
ture of The Gathering, said
Fisher Staples. We want to
make sure that people are
available to the participants.
We really want people
who will fit, and be willing
to sit down and have lunch
with a group of participants
and weve been really fortu-
nate in getting that, so the
speakers who come really
love coming.
In addition to those who
have been invited to speak,
The Gathering has also se-
cured a number of special
guests to run workshops and
sit on panels.
During the years, Fisher
Staples said the conference
has attracted a variety of
people from scholars, serious
readers and people just in-
terested in the theme that
year.
Its also been a popular
destination for writers and, as
a writer herself, Fisher Sta-
ples said she has found the
conference very beneficial.
A lot of writers come to
get their batteries recharged,
she added. Im a writer and
Im always more energized
after The Gathering than I
am the whole rest of the
year.
Tickets are available for

Maybe you cant judge a
book by its cover, but a
books cover usually gives
prospective readers some
idea of whats in store for
them.
In the case of Daniel H.
Wilsons thought-provoking
novel Robopocalypse, the
cover is both attention-grab-
bing and unsettling, with its
extreme close-up of the shiny
plastic carapace of a robots
face. This unsmiling, red-
eyed visage lets us know im-
mediately that were not go-
ing to encounter winsome
R2-D2s or cute little Robbie
the Robot types in this story.
Although I have trouble
pronouncing the title (Just
try saying Robopocalypse
three times, fast!), I have no
problem in pronouncing Wil-
sons suspenseful and fright-
ening tale a mostly satisfying
summer read. You will burn
through this book faster than
ultraviolet rays can penetrate
your sun block. Set in a not-
too-distant future in which
robots and all things comput-
erized, guided by an implac-
able artificial intelligence
named Archos, try to take
over the world, Robopoca-
lypse will make you see
your cell phone, S.U.V. and
laptop in a new and unset-
tling way.
Structured in five partslike
the five acts in a Greek trage-
dy, Robopocalypse takes
us on a global odyssey that
includes stops in Boston,
New York, London, Afghan-
istan, Japan, Oklahoma and
Alaska. In these far-flung lo-
cales, we witness the first in-
timations that the machines
we control have begun to
control us, and later see
small pockets of humans ral-
ly to fight back during the
three-year war that pits the
formidable Archos and the
machines it commands
against a disparate band of
humans.
We learn of this war after
the fact, via a written record
compiled by the main narra-
tor, Cormac Bright Boy
Wallace. The narration that
Cormac cobbles together is
an ingenious device, since it
allows the story to be told
from the perspectives of
many of the characters we
meet early on in the book.
Even though we know from
the first chapter that the hu-
mans have prevailed, the sto-
ry manages to be nail-biting-
ly suspenseful.
My favorite section is the
first, titled Isolated Inci-
dents, which provides the
basic exposition. A domestic
robot, known as a Big Hap-
py, runs riot in a frozen yo-
gurt shop in Oklahoma. A ro-
botic love doll attacks her
adoring owner, Takeo Nom-
ura, in Tokyo. In Afghanis-
tan, Specialist Paul Blanton
is traumatized when the safe-
ty and pacification robot he
directs contravenes its pro-
gramming and opens fire
with an AK-47. Ten-year-old
Mathilda Perez, daughter of
Senator Laura Perez of Penn-
sylvania, gets a scary mess-
age from her Baby-Comes-
Alive doll. In London, Lurk-
er, a pimply 17-year-old who
plays tricks on people via
phone, finds himself hunted
by cell phones when he un-
wittingly makes contact with
Archos.
Archos is a terrifying enti-
ty, yet its goal is pure. Using
the voice of a small boy, he
tells his creator, Professor
Nichols Wasserman, I will
cultivate life. I will protect
the knowledge locked inside
living things. I will save the
world from you.
Archos sees humans as ob-
solete killing machines,
and by helping robots and
other machines evolve into
thinking machines, Archos
believes he will make the
world a better place. Perhaps
he has a point, but he under-
estimates the human urge to
survive.
Throughout history, when
faced with extinction or en-
slavement, humans have
found devious means of re-
sistance, and in Robopoca-
lypse, unlikely combina-
tions of individuals band to-
gether to fight back. Much of
the pleasure of this book
stems from seeing how these
knots of human resistance
form, find ways of communi-
cating with each other, and
ultimately, despite their dif-
ferences, manage to work to-
gether to repair the damaged
fabric of humanity.
As anyone who is a fan of
sci-fi or fantasy fiction will
recognize, Robopocalypse
leans heavily on the plot de-
vices perfected by earlier
writers.
Following the lead of Ste-
phen Kings The Stand, and
Tolkiens Lord of the
Rings, in which intrepid
bands of heroic characters
join forces and travel far be-
yond their homes to combat
evil powers, this book ulti-
mately focuses on a group of
six people who work their
way across the country to
Gray Horse, sacred place of
the Osage Nation in central
Oklahoma, which has be-
come a defensive stronghold.
The six, who will form the
nucleus of Brightboy Com-
pany, include: Cormac; his
altruistic brother, Jack; Carl,
a soldier; Tiberius, a cab
driver from Africa; Cherrah,
a fierce little woman who is
both amechanic and a mem-
ber of the Osage Nation; and
Leo, an engineer.
While others struggle
against the now self-building
robots by falling back on
primitive, non-computerized
means of survival, the mem-
bers of Brightboy Company
find ingenious ways to first
lobotomize then repurpose
captured robots.
Riding their now docile
spider tank, Houdini, they,
along with an army collected
at Gray Horse, head for Alas-
ka, where they will wage the
final battle against Archos
with help from some surpris-
ing allies.
Like the robots, this book
has its weaknesses. Because
it is primarily plot-driven,
most of Wilsons human
characters lack development.
In fact, often the robots are
more interesting than the
people. In addition, I got a
little tired of the introduc-
tions and conclusions to each
segment, narrated by Cor-
mac. They seem to reflect the
authors fear that we wont be
able to follow the plot. Trust
me; we will. But these are
minor complaints.
Robopocalypse doesnt
pretend to be great literature.
It is, however, a very imagi-
native, frightening and sus-
penseful vision of things to
come if were not careful.
After reading the first 100
pages or so, I told a friend,
If this book isnt made into a
movie, Ill eat my laptop.
Steven Spielberg is already
at work on a screenplay of
Robopocalypse. The film
is due out in 2013, and Im
betting it will be a blockbus-
ter.

I just realized that the Fourth
of July is right around the cor-
ner. It seems as if the kids just
finished the school year yester-
day, but a trip to our library
would prove it has been bursting
with young people since the
first full week of June.
These youngsters have been
keeping the childrens roomand
circulation desk very busy. In
addition to checking out books,
on a fewMondays and most
Tuesdays they can attend special

grams drawto a close, Cynthia
Harrison will help the children
understand the Therapy Dog
International programon Tues-
day, July 26, at 11a.m., and the
children will participate in
Reading to a Therapy Dog on
Monday, August 1, at 11a.m.

forget to check out our librarys
blog (just Google the Dalton
Community Library and click
the link to the blog). The June
entries focus on newholdings at
the library. Works of fiction,
nonfiction, large type books,
juvenile books, and newCDs
are all listed. All the books cited
include reviews provided by

funded by the Institute of Mu-
seumand Library Services, a
number of Dalton library lead-
ers were able to attend the
Northeast Region Trustee
Trustee and Friends Institute
Saturday, June18, at The Uni-
versity of Scranton. These
workshops focused on the role
of boards, board members and
their relationship to improving
the community, legal issues
affecting all libraries and the
ways in which Friends orga-
nizations can support their com-
munity libraries and other
Friends groups. Our library
was very well represented at
these workshops and those
attending felt that there were
many ideas presented that can
be utilized to make our library
even better as it serves the needs
of Dalton. Without a doubt, a
day like this is a real benefit of
our belonging to a county li-
brary system!
Enjoy the Fourth of July
weekend as we all celebrate our
country and our freedom.

LA PLUME - This sum-
mer, art lovers in the New
York area will get a
glimpse of the talent Keys-
tone College has been
aware of for years.
Sally Tosti, an associate
professor at Keystone Col-
lege, La Plume will have
her artist book, Go West,
exhibited at The Center for
Book Arts in New York
City.
The exhibit, titled The
Un(framed) Photograph)
will run July 6 through
Sept. 10.
Im a member of The
Center for Book Arts, and
its a members show, but
its a juried show, said
Tosti. I had to submit my
work and be selected. Just
being a member doesnt
guarantee you a spot.
I had work in a show
there two years ago, and
Im honored to be one the
people who was selected.
The piece the center se-
lected to exhibit was Go
West, a handmade, dou-
ble-sided, accordion-style
book containing 24 pho-
tographs from Tostis trip
throughout parts of the
western United States.
The photographs are part
of a larger body of work
Tosti is currently putting
together.
Im taking photographs
of contemporary American
culture in all 50 states,
said Tosti.
Last summer I took a
road trip from Minneapo-
lis, Minnesota to Seattle,
Washington and Vancouv-
er, Canada, and I sort of
zigzagged so I could hit
seven or eight states on
that trip, so this particular
book started with the im-
ages I took last July.
The book is a taste of
whats to come, as Tosti
said her ultimate goal is to
put together a book that
she hopes to have publish-
ed featuring photographs
from all the states shes
visited.
Those interested might
not have to wait long to
see the finished product.
Tosti said she only has
12 states left to visit, and
shes hoping to have the
initial photography for the
project done by January.
Keystone College has
granted her a sabbatical for
the fall semester to help
make the goal more
achievable.
In addition to time, the
college has also helped
finance some of the pro-
ject. Tostis trip last July
was partially funded by a
stipend from Keystone
College.
Tosti said that right now,
all her concentration is in
finishing up the initial
photography on the project,
but once thats completed
she will begin looking for
a venue to show the work.
She said Go West may
not be featured in that
show, and as of now, since
there are no confirmed
plans, the only definite
way anyone interested can
see the book is by visiting
The Center for Book Arts.
The center is located at
28 West 27th St., 3rd floor,
New York, NY 10001.

T
he Abington Heights High School Football program held
its annual Future Comets Football Camp June 26.
This will be the seventh year that Comets head coach Joe
Repshis ran the event. According the Repshis, the camp has aver-
aged about 100 participants each year.
Participants were divided into small groups for instruction
based on age and position. Participants were instructed by the
Abington Heights High School coaching staff, current players and
former players. Each participant was be given individualized in-
struction and attention.

Cory Spangenberg has already
made clear his ability to help the
Eugene Emeralds by getting on
base at a higher rate than any
other hitter in the Northwest
League.
Spangenberg used the June 26
game at Everett to show off his
run-producing ability.
The Abington Heights High
School graduate hit his first pro-
fessional home run and drove in
five runs before an out was re-
corded in the second inning of
Eugenes 14-4 rout of the Aqua-
Sox.
Spangenberg, a first-round draft
pick by the San Diego Padres ear-
lier this month, moved into a tie
for the league lead with 11 RBI.
There is already speculation in
San Diego that the Padres may
move Spangenberg up to a higher-
level team within Class A before
his first season is over.
Spangenberg continues to dom-
inate the short-season Class A

CLARKS SUMMIT- Abington
Heights High School girls basketball
head coach Vince Bucciarelli had to
pause for a moment when asked when
his camp first started.
Weve been doing this for a long
time up here, probably since the late
1980s, Bucciarelli said. We started
off with maybe 30 girls and its built
up to about 140 girls this year.
Bucciarelli was joined by Phil De-
sarno, the seventh and eighth grade
girls and boys basketball coach; Bob
Thompson, the freshman girls head
coach; Tom Kusy, assistant girls varsi-
ty coach; and volunteer Lisa Imbriaco.
The camp, which was held from
June 20 to 24, featured a morning
session with girls from grades one
through six that ran from 9:15 a.m. to
noon, and an afternoon session with
grades seven through 12 than ran from
12:30 to 3 p.m. at Abington Heights
High School.
According to Bucciarelli, the in-
struction differs on the age of the girls.
In the afternoon session with the
older kids we try to do a lot of the drill
work that we incorporate with our

SCRANTON The
NEPA Miners football
team announced that
former Nittany Lion
Austin Scott will join
their ranks.
The team held a press
conference June 23, at
the Mall at Steamtown,
Scrantonto announce
what they called the
biggest signing in the
teams five-year histo-
ry. Miners coach Da-
niel LaMagna said he
has been trying to get
Scott to join the team
since March. Scott said
that the persistence of
LaMagna is what made
him decide to join the
team.
I was getting calls
every other day from
him. It really showed
me that they wanted me
to be a part of the
team, said Scott.
Scott has been named
second team All-Amer-
ican by the USA Today,
Associated Press First
Team All-State and Big
School Player of the
Year and received the
prestigious Jim Henry
Award from the Max-
well Football Club as
the Philadelphia Area
High School Player of
the Year.
Scott played for the
Penn State Nittany Li-
ons and in 2006 helped
lead them to victory in
the Orange Bowl
against ACC Champion
Florida State. He was
signed by the Cleveland
Browns of the National
Football League as an
undrafted Free Agent
following the 2008 NFL
Draft. He spent last
season in Germany with
the Braunschweig Lions
of the German Football
League playing in every
game, carrying the ball
233 times for 1,502
yards and 11 touch-
downs. He had eight
catches for 40 yards
and returned eight kicks
for 125 yards.
When asked if he had
professional goals, Scott
said, There are always
hopes to make it to a
better league in the
background but right
now Im moving for-
ward with my life. This
league gives me the
opportunity to focus on
a career path and also
have fun and play foot-
ball and give back to
the community. Thats
the main goal.
Weve been educating
him and informing him
with what the NEPA
Miners are about and
the opportunity that we
can bring him, said

LAPLUME- Keystone Col-
lege and Bucknell University
share more than team colors .
They both serve as alma ma-
ters for Christy Mathewson, a
member of the Baseball Hall
of Fame. They teamed up to
serve as the start and finish
points for the inaugural Free-
dom Bike Ride.
About 15 riders departed
Keystones campus in La
Plume just after 8 a.m. June 23
and are expected to arrive in
Lewisburg July 25 in time for
the Union County Veterans
Fourth of July parade.
We wanted to do an event
that would honor Christy
Mathewson as well as all the
veterans, said event coor-
dinator Kevin Bittenbender.
We thought, What better way
to do something like that than
to come to his hometown and
by using the mode of trans-
portation that gives you the
most freedoma bicycle.
Bittenbender, a U.S. Para-
lympic coach, reached out to
veterans to be a part of the
event. He is involved with the
Wounded Warrior project
through the Challenged Ath-
letes Foundation for disabled
athletes. Three- hand cyclists
from the U.S. Paralympic team
and the other coach Rob Rossi
participated in the race
Were gonna ride to the
Veterans Hospital (in Wilkes-
Barre) to thank the veterans,
Bittenbender said. From there
we will continue west to Mil-
ton and Lewisburg for the
parade.
Bittenbender was thankful
for Keystones cooperation in
organizing the ride.
I cant say enough good
things about the outreach that
Keystone College has given us
as far as support, he said.
They have been awesome and
generous in aiding us to do
something like this.
He also thinks that many of
the values that Mathewson
showed during his life were
instilled in him during his time
at Keystone Academy.
Christy Mathewson was not
only a great athlete by his own
merits, but he was also a veter-
an and people dont really
realize that, Bittenbender
said.
He gave up everything, his
career to go and fight in World
War I and later succumbed to
injuries that he received during
that conflict. He could have
easily just continued playing
baseball, but he decided to go
and fight and support the war.
I think his example is very
prevalent to what were facing
now. There are a lot of people
out there that are making those
sacrifices that could be easily
making hundreds of thousands
of dollars, but decided to be in
the military and make a lot
less. Its the value that we place
on freedom. I think that Keys-
tone College represents that
epitome of being free.
Keystone College president
Dr. Edward G. Boehm Jr. was
proud to have his institution
serve as the starting point for
the race.
We think its wonderful
because this is where Christy
Mathewson began his life, he
said. He left here in 1898 and
went to Bucknell, so theyre
going to actually ride on prob-
ably one of the ways he went
there when we left this town.
He was our local hero at Keys-
tone Academy, Factoryvilles
local hero, and then he had
wonderful years at Bucknell. .
Boehm hopes that people
will see the riding leaving
town this year and want to be a
part of the event themselves in
years to come.
By them using this as the
take-off point, we hope every-
body will see the bikes, and
next year a lot more will want
to ride with them, and it will
be part of a life that you can
transfer along lifes highways,
and it starts right here, he
said.
Bittenbender thinks the rainy
weather contributed to the low
turnout, but he and his riders
were not fazed by the wet con-
ditions.
A lot of it is due to the
weather, he said. Were gonna
go with what we have. Weather
is not gonna hold us back,
were gonna be riding no mat-
ter what. Being that its an
inaugural event we didnt ex-
pect a lot of participants, but
the ride is open to anyone who
wants to participate along the
route. They can join us on any
of the three days. They can
come out and ride with us for
five minutes, five miles or the
entire length. You dont have to
be a veteran. We have a 14-
year-old kid who is gonna ride
with his dad, who is a veteran.
Its think its awesome that we
have the youth support.
Joey King of Green Bay,
Wisc., a member of the U.S.
Paralympic team, was honored
to take part in the inaugural
ride.
Its the freedom ride so that
means a lot to me, King said.
I went and fought for my
country. It means a lot to me to
try and give back. It feels
good, especially to be with
other guys that I train with for
biathlon, so its nice to get
back out with them and meet
new people.
Jim Lyons of South William-
sport, who served in the Army
from1985 to 1989 , was proud
to take part in the ride with his
son Zach, 14.
The father and son wanted to
take part in the race to honor
people they know who are
currently serving their country.
I know quite a few guys
who have sons in the military
and are deployed, Jim Lyons
said. Some guys I work with
are reservists and get deployed
at different times. So we know
quite a few people that have
been or are deployed. All that
together makes it a good cause
for us to come out and ride.
Zach Lyons was excited to
be able to share a ride with
men who he looks up to.
It means a lot because I
love being around military
stuff. I think its really cool,
Zach Lyons said. It feels real-
ly cool riding with all these
guys.
Factoryville major Gary
Evans was happy to be able to
join up with the town of Le-
wisburg to make the ride pos-
sible.
Its a nice connection. It
basically stemmed from Le-
wisburg making Christy Math-
ewson the grand marshal of
their 17th annual veterans
parade, Evans said. That is
our connection, which is really
nice. I love the community,
and with Keystone being part
of it, its just a whole different
community. Its not just 1,200
people, its bigger than that. Its
because of Christy Mathew-
son, and Keystone College that
the borough gets to be recog-
nized a little bit more for the
right reasons.

Members of the Abington Heights High School football team, shown above, participated in the eighth annual
Laurens First and Goal Football Camp.
Comets participate in camp for charity
varsity and JV teams, he
said. We try to teach the
younger kids a lot of basic
fundamentals, like passing,
catching and shooting. We try
to teach all the kids how to
do all the basic skills.
Bucciarelli thinks the camp
is partially responsible for the
success of his Lady Comets
teams.
We teach them a lot of
stuff that we try to do at our
practices, he said. They
look up at all my older girls
that are working the camp. I
have girls from freshman to
seniors who work the camp.
The little girls look up to
them. My girls say, Was I
that small when I came up
here too? because they have
all come to the camp too
through the system. Were not
gonna get everyone who
comes to this camp, but were
gonna get maybe 10 out of
each class. We try to have a
lot of fun with them, get
them enthused and get them
interested in the game of
basketball.
Bonding with the current
players is something that
Bucciarelli think the young
campers really enjoy.
The little kids love them,
he said. They hang on my
kids all day long in the morn-
ing session and I know they
love the little kids and have a
great time with them. We get
a lot of them to come to our
games. They will show up for
a game and run up to my kids
and ask them to sign auto-
graphs on their T-shirts. Its a
lot of fun for both my older
kids and the little kids.
Breanna Toro, who will be
a sophomore in the fall, en-
joys interacting with the
young campers.
I love it because I love to
work with the little girls and
help them with their skills
and help them improve and
know what to do, Toro said.
Toro has been attending the
camp since first or second
grade and believes it has
helped her development as a
basketball player and pre-
pared her to know what to
expect from Coach Bucciarel-
li.
Growing up into varsity, I
know what I have to do to
accomplish what he wants,
she said.
Tiffany ODonnell, a senior
in the fall, also enjoys teach-
ing the young girls the game
of basketball.
Its really fun because we
get a chance to meet a lot of
different kids and they really
look up to us, ODonnell
said. Its fun to just lead
them around and know that
were role models to them.
ODonnell thinks the camp
helps prepare the young play-
ers to know what to expect
when they become Lady
Comets.
Knowing how everything
works during the camp and
knowing what Mr. B likes
helps with the little kids to
mold them.
