Benefit auction to provide hope for Haiti

BY JEFF FALK

Hope comes in many different sizes, in many different shapes and in many different forms. Hope comes from various origins, various places and various sources.

Yes, there is hope for Haiti. It’s alive and well in Ephrata.

“Haiti has been in the news, and it’s almost always negative,” said Kristen Hertzog, who’s visited Haiti 79 times over the last 30 years, many of which have been as missions of mercy. “It seems like there is constantly drama there. I’ve been asked, ‘Why do you keep going back for more?’ I think the reality is that when you’re on the ground and meet the people down there, it

gives it a different dimension.”

Hertzog is also a board member for the Hope for Haiti Benefit Auction and a liaison between the fundraiser and the people of Haiti. This year’s edition of the annual

“We’re giving people we don’t

know hope

for a better life.”

benefit auction will be conducted on Saturday, May 17, from 9 a.m. until everything is sold, at the one-room Metzler School, 535 Metzler Road, Ephrata. Admission to the Hope for Haiti Benefit Auction is free.

“It’s a typical country auction,” said Hertzog. “But every year it’s different, which is why people should come again. Our auction is unique because everyone is invited to volunteer and participate. You can come casually, or you can come to buy something.”

Some of the items that will be made available for bids at the auction include collectibles, tools, sheds, furniture, gift cards, quilts, antiques, flowers, plants, outdoor items and locally made craft goods. There will also be a large food court offering homemade dishes; a children’s tent featuring games, activities and prizes; a Spikeball tournament; and a bake sale.

“All of these unique groups are coming together,” said Hertzog.

A change of season and venue

5K moves to Leola

BY ANN MEAD ASH

Back in 2018, a nurse on staff at the Clinic for Special Children, then located in Strasburg, suggested a 5K fundraiser. “Keturah Beiler, who was a runner, really spearheaded the effort to get the 5K started,” recalled Kelly Cullen,

marketing and communications manager for the Clinic for Special Children. The 5K became an annual event, and was even held virtually in 2020 when COVID-19 restrictions made it difficult to hold in person.

In 2024, the 5K, which was traditionally held in September,

Veterans return to Bird-in-Hand

BY ANN MEAD ASH

The Lancaster County Veterans Breakfast Club (LCVBC) met at the Bird-in-Hand Family Restaurant and Smorgasbord for five years until a fire temporarily shut down the restaurant in December of 2023. During the interim, the group met at the former Revere Tavern and then at a variety of local diners. During that time, LCVBC founder Bill Terry saw attendance shrink from around 100 to about 30 a month, but on March 29, 100 club members once

again breakfasted together when the group was able to return to Bird-in-Hand.

“When I got the call that they could put us back in, we went from 30 to 100,” said a smiling Terry. “We are the only group that’s here (at this time). They wanted us back.” LCVBC meets on the third Saturday of every month. The breakfasts are free for veterans and spouses. Many of the breakfasts are paid for by sponsors, including local businesses. Attendees begin arriving at 7 a.m.

Auctioneers accept bids for items at last year’s Hope for Haiti benefit event.

The Clinic for Special Children 5K will move to Leola for this year’s event, which will be held in May.

Ephrata Cloister sets

Separate fees have been set for students, adults accompanying students, and adults not accompanying students. Reservations are required by calling 717-733-6600 or emailing Sophie Walters at sowalters@pa.gov.

Presidents of chapters of military organizations, such as the Veterans of Foreign Wars, who attend may get up and speak, and sometimes a speaker is scheduled. At the March 29 event, a number of speakers got up to share about organizations and services available to veterans.

from pg 1

AJ Durham, an ambassador with Save A Warrior, a 72-hour program located in Wellsboro, Ohio, told his story to those gathered. Durham, who underwent the program about three years ago, shared how his complex post-traumatic stress fed into the anger he had felt since he was a child. “I grew up in an alcoholic and dysfunctional household,” noted Durham, who also lived in foster care before finding a home with his grandparents in the 1990s. When his arguments and discipline problems continued, he enlisted in the service and spent 20 years serving. In 2018, Durham retired. “It was supposed to be a great time in my life, but my life was still unmanageable,” recalled Durham, who noted that he drank heavily and isolated himself from his family. “I didn’t know how to process the war,” he stated. When Durham reached the end of his rope, he remembered a fellow veteran had mentioned Save A Warrior to him. “I got online, and I hit submit,” said Durham. “In less than 24 hours, I got a call. I told them how I was out of control and how nothing was working.” Before he left for the program, Durham stopped drinking. “I am two and a half years sober now,” he stated to applause from the group. “I was able to get rid of the guilt, shame,

and anger I had been hanging on to.” Following his experience with Save A Warrior, Durham, who lives in Hellam in York County, became an ambassador. He speaks to veterans groups whenever he gets a chance. “I am giving back,” he stated. “If you’re done suffering, I highly recommend you get on the website and hit submit. It completely changed my life.” More information about Save A Warrior may be found at www.saveawarrior.org, and Durham may be reached at aj@saveawarrior.org.

Andrea Town, administrative assistant with Tails of Valor, Paws of Honor, spoke about the canine-assisted service programs, wellness activities, and community outreach the organization provides to veterans and first responders. Town was invited to speak at the program by a breakfast club member whose service dog, Couchy, was provided through Tails of Valor.

“There are a lot of ways to change your life,” said Town, who noted the organization, with a training campus in Quakertown, is starting its 11th year. “We have always worked with veterans, but we recently opened to police, fire, and emergency personnel who have a lot of the same

issues.” Town explained that dogs can make a difference in the life of someone who has an injury that has resulted in post-traumatic stress. “Unconditional love is an amazing thing,” she noted, adding that the program is designed to help alleviate anxiety, depression, anger issues, and nightmares. “It’s a journey with a purpose,” she stated, noting that veterans who take part will work with a wellness team.

“(The veteran and dog) build that one-on-one bond and connection,” she stated.

“(The two) have to communicate. They have to learn to work together.” Town pointed out that the service is free to veterans and first responders. “It’s about love and trust and making the world a little bit better place.” More information about the organization may be found at www.tails ofvalor.org.

According to Terry, a majority of breakfast club members are Vietnam War veterans. One attendee wanted others to know about the Liberty Warbirds, an organization that has restored a Huey helicopter that served in Vietnam from 1968 to 1970, logging 1,300 combat flight hours. Liberty Warbirds spent three years restoring the helicopter to turn it into a flying museum. The Liberty Warbird Association is located at 500 Airport Road, Suite T, Lititz. The helicopter can often be seen on Saturdays, when not otherwise engaged. More information about Liberty Warbirds may be found at www.libertywarbirds.com, and the organization may be reached at info@liberty warbirds.com.

Those who wish to reserve a space at any of the breakfasts may call 717929-0310. Individuals with questions may call Terry at 717-435-6095.

The Lancaster Recreation Commission (Lancaster Rec), in partnership with the City of Lancaster and Lancaster Bikes, will host the 10th annual Open Streets Lancaster on Saturday, May 10, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Since its launch in 2014, Open Streets has focused on encouraging active lifestyles and strengthening community ties. For one day, Lancaster’s streets will transform into a car-free playground where residents can bike, rollerblade, skate, walk, and run; any form of active transportation is encouraged.

The event will include dozens of community vendors, nonprofits, food trucks, live music, and interactive activities for people of all ages. Last year, Open Streets featured gymnastics instruction, martial arts, skateboarding, and bike repair stations.

For more details on Open Streets Lancaster, including sponsorship opportunities, visit www.lancasterrec.org/ openstreets.

programs for people of all ages, Lancaster Rec places a special emphasis on accessible activities for children in schools, parks, and playgrounds. In 2024, Lancaster Rec began a new chapter: the renovation of the former Price Elementary School into a state-of-the-art recreation center. To learn more, visit www.lancaster rec.org/newrec.

Since 1909, the Lancaster Recreation Commission has been dedicated to providing recreation and learning opportunities for Lancaster residents. Focused on neighborhood-based

was canceled as the clinic settled into its new home at 20 Community Lane, Gordonville.

For 2025, the fundraiser is back, but with a number of differences. “We changed the season,” noted Cullen, who added that the run has moved from September to May. The venue is also changing from the site of the former clinic in Strasburg to the Leola Produce Auction, where the clinic has held its annual auction each June for a number of years. While the route for the 5K, which will be closed to traffic, will be different, Cullen noted that the course will exhibit much of the same kind of charm for which the original route was known. “Our old route was out and back, but this is a 3.1-mile loop,” said Cullen, who added, “It will have

similar scenery. It passes an Amish schoolhouse and farms. We are keeping the same ambiance,” she said of the course, which she noted has “rolling hills.”

“It’s right in the heart of Farmersville, Leola, Brownstown,” said Renny Magill, development director with the clinic.

The seventh annual Clinic for Special Children 5K will be held on Saturday, May 17, beginning at 9 a.m. at the Leola Produce Auction, 135 Brethren Church Road, Leola. Those wishing to participate may register at www.ClinicforSpecial Childrenorg/events/5k. Paper registrations may be picked up at the clinic. Registration on-site on the day of the event will be held from 7:30 to 8:45 a.m. Packet pickup will begin at 7:30 a.m. as well.

The race will be chip timed, and is open to runners, joggers, and walkers. Medals will be awarded to the first overall male and female finishers. Awards will be given to the top three male and female finishers in the following age groups: age 14 and under, ages 15 to 19, ages 20 to 29, ages 30 to 39, ages 40 to 49, ages 50 to 59, ages 60 to 69, and age 70 and up.

A Kid’s Color Fun Run will be held following the 5K. There is a cost to take part in the short run, which is open to children age 10 and under. “They wear white shirts, and color is thrown (on the runners),” said Cullen. “They get a little treat in the end,” she added, noting that about 30 runners have participated in the kids’ run in the past but that she anticipates more this year.

Indeed, according to Magill, the 2025 event has seen increases in participation in a number of areas.

“We are really excited,” he noted. “We are up about 40% in sponsorships this year. We see that as an affirmation of the change in venue.” Magill added that companies that have supported the run in the past, such as presenting

sponsor Nemours Children’s Health, are helping fund the run this year and that new sponsors have stepped up.

Cullen added that the number of runners who have registered is up as well, leading organizers to project that more than 400 runners may take part this year.

All funds raised by the event will go to the mission of the clinic, which is to “serve children and adults who suffer from genetic and other complex medical disorders by providing comprehensive medical, laboratory, and consultative services, and by increasing and disseminating knowledge of science and medicine.”

“Generally funds go to help keep patient costs affordable,” noted Magill.

Dementia - One size does not fit all

BY ANN MEAD ASH

“I’m excited about this,” shared Allison Cuthie, director of ForgeWorks, a division of Garden Spot Village (GSV). “So often you have (dementia education) conferences for health care workers or the family, but who offers a conference for the person living with

dementia?” Working with experts in the field, Cuthie has developed just such a conference in coordination with Dementia Awareness Week, which will be observed from Monday, May 19, through Sunday, May 25. “It’s very honoring of their value at a time of life where they may not feel they have value or a role,”

explained Cuthie.

The first Dignity in Awareness conference for care partners and people living with brain changes will be held at GSV, 433 S. Kinzer Ave., New Holland, on Thursday, May 22. Doors will open at 8 a.m., and the morning will kick off at 8:30 a.m. in the GSV chapel with a keynote presentation by a panel including speakers representing the four main types of dementia - Alzheimer’s disease, vascular dementia, Lewy body dementia, and frontotemporal dementia - as well as speakers who are living with dementia. The event will conclude at noon.

We’d like to wish all of our area moms a truly wonderful Mother’s Day. Your commitment to raising great kids makes our world a better place, and we admire your hard work and tireless dedication.

Thanks for all that you do!

“The neat thing about this conference is that we wanted to make it as inclusive as possible and allow for people living with dementia to have an option to attend a conference that

Event to showcase tabernacle exhibit

Mennonite Life, 2215 Millstream Road, Lancaster, invites the community to a celebration of the Biblical Tabernacle Experience’s 50th anniversary on Saturday, May 10, from 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Mennonite Life

Visitors Center. The event will feature walk-in showings of the Biblical Tabernacle Experience for a fee. It will also include a kids’ scavenger hunt, a historical timeline telling the story of the tabernacle, and new

merchandise. A sandwich and pretzel truck will be on-site for the event.

The Biblical Tabernacle Experience first opened in Lancaster County in May 1975, offering an immersive connection to an ancient story. Guiding guests through several chapters of Exodus, the multimedia experience features a mural and a detailed replica of the tabernacle as it is described in Scripture.

Throughout the past five decades, staff members have welcomed more than one million guests from around the world to experience the tabernacle. Today, showings are available in English, Spanish, and Chinese, with Korean to come later this year.

Visitors view the tabernacle replica.

The annual Wheels and Wings Festival & 5K was established in 2017 to benefit Lancaster city youths. Since then, the Rotary Club of Lancaster’s fundraiser has really “gotten rolling”; it’s really “taken off.”

“It’s really a fun, family day,” said Amy Lewis, who’s been a member of the Rotary of Lancaster’s board of directors for two years.

“We encourage families to come. There’s music that gives it a classic car vibe.

The Wheels and Wings Festival & 5K is part car show, part running competition and part airplane show. The sixth edition of the event will be held on Saturday, May 17, from 7:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Lancaster Airport, 500 Airport Road, Lititz.

CREEKSIDE FOODS

The day will begin at 8 a.m. with the running of the 5K over a fairly flat course on the grounds of Brethren Village, 3001 Lititz Pike, Lititz. More than 100 runners are expected to compete.

Runners can register at https://runsignup.com/ Race/PA/Lititz/Wheels WingsFestival5K or on-site, beginning at 7 a.m. on the day of the race. The deadline to receive a discounted fee is Friday, May 9.

The car and plane shows will then take center stage at 9 a.m. Nearly 300 vehicles are expected to be on display - classic automobiles, futuristic imports, motorcycles and trucksand prizes will be awarded in 16 different categories, while spectators will get an opportunity to vote for the people’s choice award.

Owners can register their vehicles by searching for “Rotary Club of Lancaster Wheels and Wings Festival and 5K” at www.eventbrite. com or on-site the day of the event.

The plane show portion of the day will feature a display of World War II Warbirds presented by Capital Wing, Commemorative Air Force. Pennsylvania State Police and Life Lion helicopters are expected to be on hand, and tours of the aircraft will be made available.

Couple marks 50th anniversary

Elmer and Carol Ann Zimmerman Stoltzfus celebrated their 50th anniversary with a surprise celebration.

Elmer and Carol began dating after traveling to Guatemala on a youth mission trip in June 1972. They were married on March 29, 1975, at Calvary Monument Bible Church, Paradise, by the Rev. Clarence Lefever. They currently reside in Willow Street and formerly lived in Akron.

They are the parents of Jeremy Stoltzfus, husband of Djaneta Ciobotari; Coralie Amy Marble, wife of Jay Marble; and the grandparents of four.

The anniversary celebration was held at the home of Jeremy and Djaneta. Djaneta’s mother, Ana, was able to attend, as she was visiting from Moldova. The Stoltzfuses will also celebrate with a family trip to Massanutten Resort in Virginia in July.

Elmer has been an overthe-road truck driver for

55 years, the last 35 of which he has worked for Dart Container in Leola. Elmer continues to work as a yard jockey at Dart in Lancaster.

Carol is retired. She worked for the gift shop at Good ‘N Plenty Restaurant for 15 years and Huber, Drewes, & Kendig for many years during income tax season. She now volunteers at New Hope Community Closet in Quarryville.

Elmer and Carol greeted people at Calvary Church, Lancaster, for many years, and they now attend Grace Church at Willow Valley, Willow Street.

Hope for Haiti

“It’s a different vibe because of that. We don’t all believe the same things, but we’re all coming together for that one purpose, to better the lives of people who don’t have it as good as we Americans. If we can open our hearts for other people, that’s a win for me. It’s OK that we’re all different, and it’s OK that the Haitians are different.”

Nearly 2,000 people are expected to attend the

from pg 1

Hope for Haiti Benefit Auction, which is supported by the work of 125 volunteers. During its 12 years of existence, the benefit auction has raised nearly $500,000 for education and business support and training for the people of Haiti.

This year, all the proceeds from the fundraiser will go toward a pair of Haiti-based programs, the Hope Library and Christian Training Center in Port-auPrince and the Transformation Haiti’s Paradigm Shift Program in Cap-Haitien. Specifically, the funds will help provide books, reliable internet, computers and opportunities for higher education.

“(The organizers and supporters of the benefit auction) have been investing their time and resources for years to benefit a place they cannot visit,” said Hertzog. “That ups the ante for me. The name Hope for Haiti came from an Old Order Mennonite woman, and she said we’re giving people we don’t know hope for a better life. When she did that, she was never going to experience the end result.”

Located in the Caribbean, Haiti has struggled with harsh economic conditions for decades and is known as the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere. Many of Haiti’s nearly 12 million residents live below the poverty level.

“The average Haitian lives on two dollars a day,” said Hertzog. “For years and years, the political turmoil has been so bad. I’ve been there enough to know that the world’s goods are not equally divided. I told myself, ‘I’ve got to start something.’ I think that bigger-picture stuff is important. At the end of the day, people are important. That was the beginning of the Hope for Haiti Benefit Auction.”

Concert to feature The Hyssongs

The Hyssongs will present a concert of gospel music at High View Church of God, 2470 Leaman Road, Ronks, on Sunday, May 18, at 6:30 p.m.

Dell, Susan, and Richard Hyssong travel full time as the award-winning trio The Hyssongs. Their ministry combines family vocal harmony, humor, trumpet, and trombone with a Christ-centered message.

The Southern gospel group has been performing as a family for 28 years.

The Hyssongs perform at more than 225 events each year throughout the United States and Canada. The trio ministers in churches and auditoriums and on gospel singing cruises, as well as on television and radio. Additionally, the group has sung to audiences of more than 12,000 people on the main stage at the National Quartet Convention and performs annually at Dollywood and Silver Dollar City. The trio’s music can be heard on Southern gospel

The event’s mood will be enhanced by live music, five food trucks serving breakfast and lunch, door prizes, games, a children’s area and vendors. More than 1,000 guests are expected to attend.

Organizers of the Wheels and Wings Festival & 5K are aiming to realize $40,000 in proceeds, which will be donated to the Rotary Club of Lancaster’s Summer Youth Experience program, which is supported by United Way of Lancaster County. The program is designed to benefit Lancaster city youths ages 5 through 17 through activities that teach leadership and aim to help prevent the “summer slide” that can occur between school years.

“The Rotary has a long history of working with the School District of Lancaster,” said Lewis. “We’re trying to bridge that (summer) gap so students can retain from year to year. It’s an area where some kids have fallen behind. We learned that some kids were struggling over the summer. It’s meant to build academic skills and build confidence.”

Living the motto of “Service Above Self,” the Rotary Club of Lancaster engages in fundraisers and community activities to benefit the 4-H Club of Lancaster County, a youth exchange and host family program in conjunction with the School District of Lancaster, Power Packs food program in Lancaster, Preserve Planet Earth and

the Salvation Army. The Rotary Club of Lancaster, which meets every Wednesday at noon at Farm & Home Center, 1383 Arcadia Road, Lancaster, was founded in 1915 and currently includes 103 members.

“The Rotary Club of Lancaster has a rich history of helping in Lancaster County,” said Lewis. “We’ve become entrenched in the community, especially for at-risk youth. Wheels and Wings is just another way to do that.”

“We live by a four-way test, ‘Is it the truth? Is it fair? Is it going to build goodwill? Is it going to be beneficial?’” added Lewis. “Everything we do runs through the fourway test. We want to benefit as many people as possible. I think that’s what’s kept us flourishing for more than a hundred years.”

Into Your Purpose.” Cuthie explained that the use of the term “brain changes” is intentional. “Dementia is a good umbrella, but there are a lot of kinds (of dementia),” she pointed out. “The more we can do to bring awareness to different types of dementia (the better),” she added. “It’s not a one-size-fits-all disease.”

In addition, local organizations that will have displays at the event will be the Alzheimer’s Association, The Association for Frontotemporal Degeneration, the Lewy Body Dementia Association, the Penn Medicine Alzheimer’s and Memory Care division, and Dementia Friendly Lancaster.

The morning will also feature hot beverages and a light breakfast, along with giveaways.

Cuthie stated that the conference grew out of work that ForgeWorks is offering

within the care community. “One of our primary areas of service is in dementia education and consulting,” she explained, noting that two dementia educators, who are staff members at ForgeWorks, are planning the seminar. The educators also work with local retirement communities, coordinate support groups, and are developing a dementia curriculum especially for the faith community.

Readers who wish to take part in the conference may visit www.theforgeworks .org or call 717-351-2500 to register. There is a fee to attend. Participation will be limited, but registrations will be accepted until the day of the event as long as space is available.

“We recognize that not everyone can come live at GSV,” noted Cuthie. “Our ForgeWorks arm is designed to bring GSV services to the community or other organizations.”
