SPOOKTACULAR connection Welcome to the Community Connection PECIAL SMagazine Welcome Fall! October is my favorite month. The trees start to turn that wonderful blaze of reds, yellows and oranges, the weather is just perfect for hiking, spending time outdoors, or simply hanging on your porch or patio. And let’s not forget Halloween! A day devoted to candy and kids. What could be better? I love seeing the creative costumes come to my door each month. And I do enjoy a few tricks as well! As The Community Connection switches gears to get ready for the exciting months to come, we would like to say thank you to all of our advertisers and readers. Without each and every one of you, we wouldn’t be where we are today. Bringing savings, stories, events, and fun to the Upper Perkiomen Valley is a joy for me. Community is eveything and if we can all do a little each day to help each other, then we are truly blessed. In this issue, check out the story on biking the Perkiomen Trail. If you aren’t a biker, take a walk and discover some breathtaking nature. All of the parks of The Upper Perk Valley are perfect for exploring on a crisp fall day. Make sure you check us out online at www.ccmonthly.com where you can print out more savings as well! Enjoy our expanded content and if you would like to see a business featured, or have a business of your own to advertise, give us a holler at 215-679-5090. We are valley strong since 2006 and we have packages to fit every budget. includes free uniform Experience the difference that over a decade marketing local business can make for you!

a touch of “class”

Ever been intimidated when you step into a gym?

We all have that fear in some form or another.

No need to worry at Snap Fitness, located at 476 Pottstown Ave in Pennsburg. Snap Fitness offers a judgment free zone. Jamal Lewis, head trainer at Snap, sums it up nicely...”This is not just a business,” he states. “We offer an experience.” And what an experience it is.

Weekly fitness challenges are also something fairly new. Designed as a 6 week course, this fitness challenge offers weight loss assistance, as well as motivation and guidance. Of all the classes Lewis teaches,“I would have to say Simulated Strike Camp is my favorite,” says Lewis. “I named it myself and I can continue to work it the way I want. It’s just really cool.”

Snap Fitness is set apart from other gyms by offering a 24-hour a day, seven day a week facility.

This deceptively large gym offers a wide variety of classes with both male and female instructors.

Recent additions to the staff include Austin Murr and Jessica Imbody.

Jacque Porterfield is an experienced registered yoga teacher who also owns Lehigh Valley Yoga in Allentown. Porterfield teaches several classes at Snap from power yoga to beginner yoga. A new Hot Yoga studio has recently been added as well.

“I like teaching here because it’s a perfect fit,” says Porterfield. “People who are interested in joining a gym like this are a regular person trying to get fit. This is a non-threatening way to take yoga.”

Yoga classes at Snap are accessible for all fitness levels. “Everything I teach can be scaled down for beginners. I really want people to know they’re not getting in over their heads,” says Porterfield.

Jamal Lewis, training manager/general manager, teaches multiple heart-pounding classes including TRX, Tabata, and the ever popular simulated Strike Camp. Snap also works hand in hand with neighboring business Tribe Nutrition, who offers classes in cardio drumming and a fun class called Pound.

“There is always something going on at Snap” says Lewis. The schedule is posted on tacebook every week, along with fun facebook live videos like Flex Friday.

Another great benefit Snap Fitness members enjoy are discounts to local businesses. Raw Replenish, Schuylkill Valley Sports, Diehl’s Tearoom, Applebees and TGIFridays are just a few places that can save you money when you join Snap

Fitness. Snap also offers a convenient “Fitness On Demand” system. With Fitness On Demand, when you’re at Snap you can choose from a number of heart-pumping exercise videos like kickboxing, Latin dance, cycling, and more. The system starts with a motorized screen, which lowers before the on-screen instructor starts the class.

“The Community has been so receptive to the things we are accomplishing here” says Lewis.

Things like working with the Upper Perkiomen High School Community Service Class. And more recently, Lewis helped train the Upper Perk womens field hockey team througout the summer. “This is my home, and the members here are my family” says Lewis. “I live locally, and I love coming to work and making a difference” In addition to fun, toning, and better health for individuals and groups, another benefit to a Snap Fitness membership is the ability to use the facilities at any of the 2,500 locations worldwide.

If you move to a new city, state or country there is no worry about changing your membership; it’s all done automatically for you without extra forms or

fees. Snap appreciates all of their members and generously offers a special discount for uniformed personnel with their “Thin Blue Line” program.

“Once you step through that door you’re a part of a family and a community,” says Lewis. “It’s about how people feel about themselves. We want our members to be a part of everything we are doing, and we want to be a part of what they are doing as well”, says Lewis. So come in and try one of their classes for free with the pass in this issue of The Community Connection!

Love Upper Perk is a movement to care about our community. Love Upper Perk is based out of the Upper Perk Community Life Center. The goal is to create a site that hosts and publishes everything that is awesome in the Upper Perk Valley. Love Upper Perk works closely with boroughs, churches, non-profits, & businesses to accomplish getting the word out about what is going on in the Valley. Check us out at www.LoveUpperPerk.org.

The autumn air evokes not just cravings of pumpkin spice and candy corn, but also thoughts of how to plan all of the great activities that come alive in fall.

With the hot, humid days far behind us and snowy winds still far away, no doubt friends and family are hitting you up to see when you’re free to get together and have some fun. Lucky for you there are lots of local activities you can recommend that are fun for all ages!

On Friday, October 19th at 6:15pm Green Lane Park is hosting a Star and Night Sky Watch event where you can join members of the Bux-Mont Amateur Astronomers from a close-up look at the night sky.

Telescopes will be provided so you can learn about the stars and solar system up close. Ages 6 and up are welcome. Meet at the Red Trail parking lot at 2005 Knights Road in Green Lane for this enlightening and educational night full of stars and splendor. The rain date will be Monday, October 22nd at the same time.

Call 215-234-4528 for more information about this free event.

Sunday, October 21st at 6:00pm will be the much loved Love Upper Perk Halloween parade. This fun event is perfect for kids to dress up and get their sugar fix or for friends to reconnect while sipping some hot apple cider on the sidewalk. One of the few nighttime Halloween parades in the area, this spectacular featuring floats and performances from local businesses, schools, and organizations takes place on Main Street from Red Hill through

Pennsburg and East Greenville. Longer than the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, this Upper Perk tradition has been kept alive with the generous donations from parade-goers. With over 10,000 people attending every year, this tradition will no doubt be a fixture in the area for years to come.

Movie nights with friends are fun any time of year, but a chilly spooky night is an especially good time to whip out a good flick and some Pinterest-perfect snacks. Whether your taste is bona fide horror like “Halloween” or a fun goofy classic like “Attack of the Killer Tomatoes,” there is no time like the fall to enjoy a night in with popcorn and a movie. Add an extra bit of fright by taking a nighttime walk after the movie with your buds…who knows what you might see along the way!

If spooky is not your family’s style, on Sunday October 27th at 4:30pm ages 6 and up can enjoy a look into the wild with “Leave it to Beavers” night at Green Lane Park. Learn about the local beaver population and get to see the furry aquatic engineers in action as they prepare for winter. The program will meet at Deep Creek Stone Pavilion at 2115 Snyder Road in Green Lane. Pre-registration is required, so call the park at 215-234-4528 to sign up.

What events are you getting involved with this fall to have some fun and learn a little more about the Upper Perk area? Let us know on the Love Upper Perk Facebook page!

Back To School Food Basics By #LivinLaVidaLocavore

the current USDA standards in place for the fat composition that is included in the student lunches.

The two most common items that can be found on a school lunch menu are cheese pizza and fried foods.

The average child has up to 50% of their vegetable servings consist of French fries. Just 10% of all children in the United States regularly consumes the recommended daily amount of fruits and vegetables.

Did you know that children who eat a school lunch are 500% more likely to consume two servings of unhealthy fats in their meal compared to children who bring their own lunches?

Children all over the United States eat lunch in cafeterias everyday. Thanks to the statistics from Vittana.org we found out some very alarming information on school lunches: Students who eat a school lunch in the United States are twice as likely to have two or fewer servings of fruit in any given day.

4 out of every 5 schools in the United States do not meet

Celebrating Community

1 in 3 high school students receives an average of less than 1 serving of vegetables per day, especially when they are using the school lunch program. Even this statistic can be misleading because an ingredient like tomato paste can count as a serving of vegetables.

Students who eat school lunches are less likely to participate in after-school programs, exercise for up to 60 minutes per day through play, or participate in any form of competitive or recreational sports.

In order to help our children live a happy and healthy life we must monitor their diet very closely. Feeding your children locally sourced foods from community vendors will help your local economy and help your children eat healthfully and make better decisions in the future.

Are You Training Your Dog to I g no re You? by: Molasses Creek

How many times do you repeat the word “sit” (“sit”,” sit”) when you ask your dog to sit? Have you ever heard a child call out to his mother “mom, mom, mom, mom”? Does Mom react or even pay attention? I call this hounding your dog, commonly known as Command Nagging. Your dog tunes you out faster than a husband during a football game. The dog thinks you’re uttering useless information. Do you say “no” all the time? This may be why your dog may be ignoring you too. Did you ever try to teach someone how to ride a bicycle and the only word you ever used was “no”? · You have to give the dog a reason for her to listen to you. · You have to give your dog time to understand and respond to the cue. · Then give your dog lots of feedback for getting it right. · Cue, Action, Reinforce 1. Cue - Say the dog’s name to see if she listening to you or even for her to acknowledge you’re in the same room. When you dog responds to her name and not being distracted, now give your dog the cue.

Celebrating Local Food

2. Action - Try to give your dog a moment to respond to your cue. Some dog trainers say wait forty-five seconds before you repeat the cue. Then there are some who say wait thirty seconds before repeating the cue. I don’t know about you, but I can barely wait thirty seconds. People think I have so much patience. Not really, I’m just using science-based training methods. I’m giving the dog time to think and comprehend what I was asking of her.

3. Reinforce - Positive reinforcement is giving feedback to the dog, to let her know, that she’s getting it right. It doesn’t always have to be food. Praise, petting, playing, going for a walk are all different but effective forms of positive reinforcement. In order for reinforcement to be effective it has to be something the dog needs or wants. If the dog is tired, using a walk wouldn’t be very effective.

The Name Game is a simple game to play. You simply say the dog’s name (in a low distraction area). When the dog looks at you, give the dog a treat you have hidden behind your back.

Make sure she’s looking at your eyes, not your hidden hands.

Gradually work up to more distracting areas. ccmonthly.com

Since 1988 Kriebel Security Inc’s mission has been to serve the banking industry with expert installation and outstanding customer service. Kriebel Security still has that same commitment to their customers here in the Upper Perkiomen Valley as well as the surrounding tri-state area today.

In 1988 David Kriebel (Founder/CEO) started up Kriebel Security out of his home. As the word spread about Kriebel’s excellent customer service and competitive pricing, the company began to grow rapidly. As they celebrate their 30th anniversary this year, what had begun as a single man operated business has grown to a team of 30 employees.

Although the fleet has grown, the personal commitment and quality of service provided to the customer base has remained a constant. Today, Kriebel Security Inc. has expanded their services to both residential and commercial customers with installations of burglar and fire systems, access control systems, camera systems, personal emergency systems and more.

customers at all times, I feel confident that our customers are being taken care of”, says daughter Christina.

With October being Fire Prevention Month, Kriebel pointed out that they offer CO detectors as well as smoke detectors that can be monitored through their security systems. “Many customers do not realize that their electrician installed smoke detectors are not nearly as reliable as the monitored smokes that we install. If your electrician smoke goes off it will sound throughout your home, but no fire departments will be notified to dispatch to your home. You will have to rely on yourself or a neighbor to call the authorities for you, as opposed to our smoke detectors, which will automatically send a signal to our 24/7 dispatch center. Customers that have our monitoring systems receive annual discounts on their home owner’s insurance for these added life safety features”, says Christina.

Kriebel security takes great pride in being a local, reliable business that provides the best prices on products and installation. With rates starting as low as $15 per month, FREE site surveys for your home or business, and installations as low as $250, you can count on Kriebel to secure what matters most.

“Our customers safety and satisfaction are our number one priority. With 24/7 UL listed monitoring services, and on-call technicians available to our

“Helping protect your family, your pets, and your valuables means a lot to us”, she states.

“We hope that you will consider our family owned and operated business for your smart home and business solutions. We have 30 years of experience in the industry and keep up to date on the latest advanced technology. With a great local reputation, you can count on us for all your security solutions. Check out our website and Facebook page for our monthly specials”, says founder and CEO Dave Kriebel.

Halloween is thought to have originated with the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain around 2,000 years ago. This festival, on November 1st, marked the beginning of their new year. The Celts believed on the night before their new year began, the boundary between the worlds of the living and dead became blurred and ghosts might return to the earth.

Taking bits from different international traditions, Americans eventually began dressing up in costumes and going house to house asking for food or money, which After American was discovered, Halloween morphed into our modern day“trick-ortreating.” In the late 1800’s Halloween was extremely limited in colonial New became a much more community England and was much more common and family-oriented holiday without in the southern colonies.

Biking the

n e m o i k Per TRAIL sm

rge Touri wn, Valley Fo ro B h c Za y: B n Board & Conventio

Montgomery County, Pa., is home to nearly 100 miles of trails, and we are on a mission to explore all of them.

This week, I grabbed my bike for an early morning bike ride on the Perkiomen Trail.

The 20-mile Perkiomen Trail makes up more than one-fifth of Montco’s nearly 100 miles of trails, carving a path northtosouth from Green Lane to Oaks. I wanted just a little more for my my ride so I set my destination a few miles farther south – the Visitor Center at Valley Forge National Historical Park.

Park-to-park, the trail would carry me through small towns, up and down a mountain, and across open fields, always within shouting distance of the Perkiomen Creek that lends its name to the trail.

I started out in the early morning hours from the parking lot on the north side of Deep Creek lake, site of the park’s amphitheater, a playground and picnic area.

The trail loops around Deep Creek Lake, but I took a shortcut across the bridge, through the adjacent parking lot

and onto the trail, which runs along the shoulder of Deep Creek Road for a brief stint before turning off into the trees.

The northernmost sections of the trail are developed, but there are a pair of brief stretches where riders must either share the road or use a widened shoulder before the trail truly comes into its own.

One of the hallmarks of the trail in this early section is the road crossings. The trail meanders through the villages of Salford and Spring Mount before the real fun begins.

Just south of Spring Mount, about five miles into my ride, was the biggest challenge I would face on the day: climbing Spring Mountain.

The warning sign comes one-quarter mile before the climb. A 12% grade takes riders up a 200-foot ascent to the top of Spring Mountain before shooting down the other side.

I couldn’t do it and had to hop off. It was the only climb that I couldn’t handle on the route, but I knew if I was going to make it 22 miles, I couldn’t spend all my energy this early.

As hard as the ascent was, the descent was scarier. The trail is paved going up the north side, but it’s all gravel on the downslope. It’s very easy to build up too much speed.

Jumping a rut or missing a corner are real possibilities if you aren’t watching your speed.

At the bottom of the hill is Schwenksville and flat riding between the town and creek. The trail passes by restaurants and a bike a shop with a convenient trail-facing Coke machine for thirsty riders.

In Schwenksville, you’re riding on a rail trail. It’s flat and straight, except for one awkward detour up to street level and around a pair of homes before returning to the route.

The trail continues south through the community of Graterford, past the trailside Vincent’s Pizzeria & Grill, the Graterford Trailhead and the clubhouse for the Pennsylvania Live Steamers, a group of scale model steam engine enthusiasts.

Just south of Graterford, the trail crosses over Route 29. This is easily the most dangerous crossing on the route as cars speed by on the busy road.

This also marked mid-point in my route, though the symbolic midpoint was just ahead in the town of Collegeville.

Collegeville is home to Ursinus College and is the largest town serviced by the trail. The gravel path gives way to pavement at the intersection of Main Street and Third Avenue.

DaVinci’s Pub sits on this corner, and if you’re looking for a hearty meal or to grab a quick drink, this is the place. If you’re looking for something a little faster – say, pizza – The Pizza Stop also sits along the trail. You’ll also find a diner, fast food restaurants and a variety of sit-down places within a two-block section of trail.

After Collegeville, the trail has the feel of an unpaved driveway – a crushed stone path that backs up to small country homes along the creek.

Many of the homes have the feel of summer cottages that are now year-long residences. I can envision the Perkiomen Creek being the Jersey Shore of its day – a waterfront spot to spend your weekends in the summer, where kids can splash around in the shallow waters while the parents enjoyed drinks in the cooling shade.

The trail winds along in unison with the creek the rest of its way, the only interruption comes when a small gathering of homes splits the two apart just north of Oaks. As the trail detours around them, we get a brief on-road section at Upper Indian Head Road.

From this point on, the trail is paved and fast with a slight downhill grade that carries riders through Lower Perkiomen Valley Park (a great stop if you need a restroom or want to sit down to a picnic lunch).

Here, riders can choose to continue on the Schuylkill River Trail or take a slight detour around the Audubon Loop that continued on next page

leads to the John James Audubon Center at Mill Grove – the first American home of the famed naturalist and artist.

The Audubon Center includes seven miles of trails – mostly walking and hiking – as well rotating art exhibits in Audubon’s home-turned-museum.

Guided canoe trips along the Perkiomen Creek are also offered on select days throughout the summer.

For this ride, I skipped the Audubon Loop and made a beeline for Oaks. This is where the Perkiomen Trail ends, connecting with the Schulylkill River Trail as it travels between Phoenixville and Philadelphia.

The former industrial complex in Oaks has become one of Montco’s largest entertainment centers. The intersection sits in the shadow of Arnold’s Family Fun Center – featuring go-karts, laser tag, bowling, an arcade and a bar and bistro.

Just a short ride further can take you to the Greater Philadelphia Expo Center, the American Treasure Tour, a movie theater, about a dozen restaurants and a pair of hotels.

My ride took me in the opposite direction, across the Perkiomen Creek for the final push eastward to Valley Forge.

This was the fastest part of the journey, and with the trail paralleling the stopped traffic along Route 422, 15 miles per hour felt even faster.

By this point the trail is already in Valley Forge National Historical Park, passing

by Pawling’s Farm and Betzwood Picnic Area.

This is where I made the hard right off the SRT, taking Sullivan’s Bridge across the Schuylkill River.

Sullivan’s Bridge was completed in 2016 and includes a built-in viewing area where riders can pull off to the side to take in the sites of the river as it flows At the south side of the bridge, the trail crosses over Valley Forge Park Road (Route 23), a tricky intersection that is immediately followed by an uphill climb to the Visitor Center on the Joseph Plumb Martin Trail.

Anyone who has ever competed in the Valley Forge Revolutionary 5-Mile Run knows this hill well. It’s a quarter-mile climb to the top – one last push before patting yourself on the back for a job well-done and another reminder that this trail is not for beginners.
