Library Hosts Science In The Summer

By Francine Fulton

Reading Incentive Program To Continue

How food is digested, what makes the heart work and how DNA makes everyone unique are some of principles that students are learning as part of the Science in the Summer program being offered in July and August at local libraries. The theme of this year’s session is “The Science of Me.” Locally, the program was held at the Chester Spring Library on July 1 and 2 as part of a new two-day, twohour format. In past years, the session was held for one hour on four days.

Instructor Tim O’Leary, an eighthgrade science teacher in the Avon Grove School District, explained that he is piloting the new two-day program for Chester County. “Sometimes there was too much to do in that one hour,” O’Leary said. “The two hours give us time to extend (the learning).”

See Science In The Summer pg 12

It is not too late for patrons of all ages to take part in the Summer Reading Program at the Chester Springs Library. This year’s theme is “A Universe of Stories.”

Participants will be asked to keep track of their reading activities in order to earn chances for an end-of-summer prize drawing. For children, prizes will include a snow cone machine, a Magic Rocks crystal growing kit and a Marvel comics trading card set. Prizes for teenagers will include a sketch book and colored pencil set and bath bombs. Adult prizes will include a pass for four to Longwood Gardens and two complimentary tickets to a show at SALT Performing Arts.

Young children up to age 5, as well as school-age students ages 6 to 11, will be asked to fill out a summer reading See Reading Program pg 12

enjoy fellowship before and after services.

Television monitors in the building allow people to view a live stream of the service.

According to pastor David Longenecker, Strong Faith Family Church began as a small group Bible study with five people in August of 2006. In its first year, the church grew from five people to more than 60, and services were moved to Wagontown Fire Company. The church had been meeting at King’s Highway for the past three years before moving into the new facility in the fall of 2018.

Before the move, a team of church volunteers had to set up chairs in the school prior to each Sunday service and set up makeshift classrooms in the school gym.

“The dividers that now create the walls around the sanctuary (here) were what we used to create children’s classroom in the elementary school,” Longenecker stated. “It would take us about two hours to set up (at the school). For our first service (here), we were up and running in five minutes. It was amazing.”

All the chairs and educational materials used at the school were brought over to the new church office space. “They gave us one month to come in, and we built a stage and drum surround and did the planning and we got everything ready and prepared,” Longenecker said.

The church facility also includes a Growth Track classroom, where members learn about their purpose in the church.

“The Growth Track is made up of four steps.

Lesson one gives people the things really

tions are being accepted now for 2019 farm preservation. need to know as (they start) their walk with God. The second lesson gives people an introduction to the church,” Longenecker explained. “Step three is a discovery process. (People) take some personality tests and spiritual gift tests and start discovering things about the way God has designed them. The fourth step shows them some of the values of our church and the different areas of service. We don’t want you serving where we have a need. We want you to serve where God wired you to serve. We want you in a place of your passions.”

The church also offers small groups that that meet in members’ homes. “As things begin to grow and flourish, a small group can turn into a ministry in the church,” Longenecker said.

The church recently formed a Service Team, which performs community service projects. So far, the team did yard work for a woman who was recently widowed, and it picked up trash in the office complex where the church is located. “(The congregation members) have a heart for each other,” Longenecker remarked. “The congregation is very mixed and diverse. We go from young to old to black to white, but we never set up to do that. Relationships keep forming and people keep loving each other, and it’s been really cool to see.”

Strong Faith Family Church holds a Sunday service at 10:30 a.m. All are welcome to attend. Signs will direct visitors to the correct office building.

the county’s current elected positions commissioners and row officers women outnumber men two to one, and the county’s president judge is a woman.

Chester County has strong historical connections to the lobbying campaign by suffragists. The county was the site of the first Pennsylvania women’s rights convention in 1852, and Chester County was the only county in southeastern Pennsylvania to support the (unsuccessful) state referendum in 1915 to give women the right to vote.

To promote that unsuccessful referendum, Katharine Wentworth Ruschenberger of Tredyffrin Township commissioned a near-replica of the Liberty Bell, which became known as the Justice Bell. A flatbed truck carried the Justice Bell, with its bronze clapper silenced by chains (to symbolize women’s lack of an electoral vote), to all 67 Pennsylvania counties before it returned to its home in West Chester at the courthouse.

The clapper of the Justice Bell was finally unchained and rang out in September 1920 after the 19th Amendment was ratified.

Geisinger Awarded Grant For Study

STRENGTHENS

Our Community

Geisinger, along with two university partners, has been awarded an $8.5 million, fiveyear grant from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to study the role of genetics in neuropsychiatric disorders, including autism spectrum disorder, schizophrenia, and bipolar disorder.

Geisinger was awarded the grant with the University of Washington in Seattle and Washington University in St. Louis. The project is one of five funded through the National Institute of Mental Health’s newly established Mental Health Rare Genetic Disease Network (MHRGDN), which includes researchers at 15 sites across the United States. Geisinger’s grant is co-funded by the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute for Child Health and Human Development.

Geisinger’s primary investigators are Christa L. Martin, Ph.D., associate chief

scientific officer and director of Geisinger’s Autism & Developmental Medicine Institute, and David H. Ledbetter, Ph.D., Geisinger’s executive vice president and chief scientific officer.

Researchers from the 15 sites in the MHRGDN network will recruit patients with known genetic causes of neuropsychiatric disorders. They will then conduct in-depth genomic and clinical assessments of patients and their family members to explore the impact of genetics on neuropsychiatric disorders. The standardized data will be made available to research facilities throughout the country through the National Institute of Mental Health to accelerate further research.

The main genetic changes to be studied are copy number variants (CNVs) of 1q21.1, 16p11.2, 15q13.3, 22q11.2, and those involving the CHD8 gene.

that the sign will include a message board. “Right now, there is a pole with a plaque on it. This will be an official street sign that people can use to advertise as well.”

Additionally, proceeds from the tournaments, along with other donations, have funded the construction of a pavilion at the Downingtown Little League fields in Matthew’s memory and helped construct dugouts at DHSW. After the first tournament, the family also had a monument constructed at the Downingtown Little League fields that lists “Angels in the Outfield” the names of former players who passed away before the age of 25.

The deadline to register a softball team for the Bats for Matt Softball Tournament is Sunday, July 14. Team members can download a registration form at http://batsformatt.com/ Register.html.

Ciarlone emphasized that nonplayers are also invited to attend to cheer on the teams, and the event will be held rain or shine, with play stopped if the weather becomes too severe. “It rained last year, and we had to stop play, so we had co-champions the last two teams that were left,” she noted. “It was the first time that we got rained out.”

For the first time, Freedom Life is participating in the global Serve Day on Saturday, July 13, and volunteers are needed to join Community Care Teams that will perform tasks in the neighborhood.

According to www.serveday.com, the annual event provides churches across the world with opportunities “to serve their local communities and share the love of God through practical acts of kindness.”

Local volunteer opportunities will include landscaping, making repairs, washing vehicles, visiting elderly residents and cleaning homes. “(Serve Day) was started by a church in Alabama, and there are lots of churches all over the world that participate,” said Jane Garlock, Freedom Life’s event coordinator. “We’ve got a number of projects in the community in Chester and Lancaster counties.”

Those who would like to participate in the event may register to volunteer at www.freedom.life/serve-day or by

downloading a Serve Day app.

“Most of the projects are more appropriate for teenagers and above,” said Garlock.

“On the app there are age filters. We did intentionally schedule a couple of projects open to children, and those are highlighted in the project descriptions. The app will direct you to search for a church, and you can find our church and the specific projects.

The Serve Day app is free for anyone to download who wants to join in the project.”

Since Freedom Life has three local campuses, projects will be offered in each area. In Christiana, teams will be at Minch Park, Pregnancy Resource Center at Cornerstone, a local home and Harrison House. In Coatesville, teams will be at Scott Field, Chester County Women’s Services, Good Works Inc. and Harrison House. In Quarryville, teams will be at Solid Rock Youth Ministries, the Quarryville Borough municipal building and Good’s Store for a free car wash.

A detailed list of projects is available at www.freedom.life/serve-day. Teams will

gather at one of three rally points at 8:30 a.m. for encouragement, instructions and a light breakfast. Supplies will be provided, and most of the tasks will be completed by noon.

Garlock pointed out that the projects are being held at the church’s community partners. “We asked some of our community partners that we already work with and know if we could do something that would be helpful to them and a good way to serve them,” noted Garlock. “And we had (church) members suggest projects.”

The church hopes to attract at least 300 volunteers. “We know that for some of the projects that are more ambitious, the more volunteers the better,” Garlock said.

She noted that volunteering is a practical way to help the community. “People are excited to come together and make a difference,” said Garlock. “We are hoping that these selfless acts will be a blessing and fuel a passion for serving others in our communities.”

Reading Program from pg 1

on Tuesday, Aug. 13. “I will pull the names that evening,” Niggel said, explaining that winners will be announced on Wednesday, Aug. 14, between 1 and 3 p.m. “People can come into the library and see if they won a prize,” she added. Ice cream sundaes will be served that day.

The library is seeking additional prizes to distribute in August. Those who would like to donate an item such as a gift card may email Niggel at nniggel@ccls.org.

Also needed are smaller prizes, which will be placed into gift baskets.

In addition to the reading incentive program, children may take part in Patch Power Summer Quest 2019. Children may earn various patches, such as “Globetrotter” and “Epic Wizard.” Preschoolers through teenagers are invited to pick a patch they wish to earn. By participating in various activities, participants can earn stamps toward their patches.

For example, to earn an “Interstellar Seeker” patch, students will be asked to read a nonfiction book about space or a biography of an astronaut. Activities for young children include listening to an

adult read a book about space.

Stamps can also be earned by attending programs at participating libraries in Chester County offering the Patch Power Summer Quest Program. The librarian at the program site can stamp the back of the requirement card. “They must complete three activities and attend one program,” Niggel said. “(Selected) programs on our calendar have a Patch program key.

For example, the Mad Chef tortilla-making program on July 10 can go for the ‘Mad Chef’ or ‘Globetrotter’ badge,” she said.

Complete details about the program can be found at the previously mentioned website.

Special activities for people of all ages, including story times, movie screenings, craft classes and more, will be held at the Chester Springs Library in July. A complete list of activities is available at www.chesterspringslibrary.org.

Chester Springs Library is located at 1709 Art School Road, Chester Springs. For more information, readers may call 610-8279212 or visit www.facebook.com/Chester SpringsLibrary.

In the second hour, they learned about the heart by viewing a real sheep’s heart.

During day two, the group analyzed mock blood samples and learned about DNA and fingerprints. The students learned that while biological systems are basically the same in all humans, there are elements in the body that interact to create unique individuals.

O’Leary, who has been teaching Science in the Summer for more than 20 years, told the students about the history of program, which began in 1986.

“Our program is brought to you by GSK, which is pharmaceutical company.

They make medicine and medical supplies,” he said. “(Science in the Summer) was brought to you by Dr. Virginia Cunningham. She was a scientist

who worked for GSK, and she noticed that there were not a lot of girl scientists. She came up with the idea to get boys and girls at an early age to be interested in science, and hopefully, when they are older in high school and college, they will go into a science field. The goal is to get you interested in science.” He added that the Franklin Institute became a partner and administrator of the program in 2012.

Science in the Summer is an experimentoriented course that is offered to classes of 16 students in two age groups - children entering second and third grades (Level I) and children entering fourth through sixth grades (Level II). The class is taught by certified teachers. For more information about the program, readers may visit www.scienceinthesummer.com.

coupon every time they read for two hours. Adults may read to children or siblings may read to each other.

Youths age 12 through those who will be high school seniors in fall may fill out a teen summer reading coupon every time they read 300 minutes (five hours) of agelevel appropriate books. Adults age 18 and over will receive a ticket for a prize for writing a book review for a book they have read. “(Patrons) give me the coupons, and they will get a ticket for the prize drawing,” explained library director Nancy Niggel. She noted that more than 30 prizes will be awarded and that more prize donations are expected.

Coupons for children and teenagers, adult book review forms and a complete list of prizes are available at the library and at www.chesterspringslibrary.org/summer-reading.

All tickets must be turned in by 6 p.m.

On the first day of the program at Chester Springs Library, students learned about digestion and the role of the esophagus, stomach and large and small intestines. O’Leary wore an apron that illustrated the various body parts.

“Your esophagus is a muscle. It allows the food to move to the stomach,” he told the students. To illustrate the process, students had to move a wooden ball through a 10-inch stocking, representing the esophagus. To learn about the small intestine, students headed outside with ribbons that they stretched out for 20 feet, which is the length of the small intestine.
