The snow is gone, the trees are budding and it’s time to venture out of hibernation. One way to shake off the winter doldrums is to peruse — and maybe purchase — the work of artists and craftspeople and sample some great food. Luckily, the Throop Arts + Food Festival fits the bill and it’s coming to the Throop Community Civic Center, 500 Sanderson St. on Saturday April 22, 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Admission is free. This annual event gathers 60-plus vendors to showcase their art, handmade goods and food. It will feature interactive activities from local Throop establishments. “We will host free art classes for students in pre-K through sixth grade” said Samantha Nardelli, co-organizer of the event. Sign the kids up by visiting throopfestival.com/free-art-classes. There will also be “live performances by Light Weight, the Olyphant Lions & Pride Squad and the Mid Valley High School steel drum band. We will also have NearMe Yoga doing a 45-minute class. Food trucks include Mannings Ice Cream, Uncle Bucks BBQ and Southwest Savory Grill,” she said. There will be a parade to kick off the event at 10:30 a.m. on Charles Street,” Nardelli said. There will also be a full raffle room with handmade goods and food. She said that all of ther proceeds from the raffles will benefit the Civic Center, to help pay for year-round programming.

“Last year we raised $1,300,” she said. This year’s version of the festival is bigger than ever. “We’re expanding to the St. John’s parking lot and the Civic Center parking lot,” she said. “We have a total of 80 vendors. Some are interactive, including a 20foot rock wall from the Army Reserves. The Throop Neighborhood Watch will sell “We Support Throop Police Dept.” signs for $10. Worried about parking? A free shuttle, provided by Gilbride Limo, will run from the Throop Little League Field to the Civic Center for easy parking.

There Is No Substitute For Chiropractic Care Your discs are made up of active, living cells that keep your spine stable and flexible. Despite their amazing resilience, they’re not immortal. Discs don’t have their own blood supply so they can’t fend for themselves. They depend on your joint motion for their supply of oxygen and nutrients. Abnormal joint movement interferes with the transport of nutrition to your discs, eventually leading to cell death. That’s why it’s so important we make sure your spine is properly aligned. Once your disc breaks down, it can’t regenerate. Our goal is to prevent it from getting worse and progressing to spinal degeneration. Nothing restores normal motion like Chiropractic adjustments can when your spinal joints are fixated or stuck. Instead of masking symptoms, Chiropractic addresses the underlying cause. We simply promote your body’s ability to heal it self naturally. You only get one spine. Let me help you take good care of it.

Borosky brought five students to this year’s event. This competition is put on by the Physics Department of the university, designed to increase their awareness of the practical applications of physics subject. The activities included a written test,

a pendulum activity called “a hitchhiker’s guide to physics,” a “blast from the past” activity involving parabolic movement of a tennis ball and an activity called “the time is ripe” that involved dropping a melon attached to a bungee cord from the ceiling.
