Learn To Sew And Quilt By Dayna M. Reidenouer

Donna Lucidi is passionate about sewing, and she is eager to help others develop their skills. “Sewing was one of my fortes,” she said, reminiscing about her career as a family and consumer science teacher at high schools in Cambria and Lancaster counties. Lucidi also taught sewing classes for Penn State Extension and at quilting and fabric stores in Pennsylvania and North Carolina. She is a founding member of the Red Rose Quilters Guild. “People feel better about themselves when they can make something,” Lucidi remarked. “The idea (behind my classes) is to show people it’s fun to do these things.” Lucidi will teach three classes for the Manheim Township Recreation and Park Planning Department. Participation is open to everyone, not just Manheim Township residents. A class on sewing a jelly roll pillow will meet from See Sewing Classes pg 3

To quote Bob Dylan, “the times they are a-changin’.” After six years in September and two years in May, Schreiberpalooza will be held for the first time in February. Dan Fink, director of marketing and public relations for the Schreiber Center for Pediatric Development, explained that in 2016 and 2017, the music festival that is Schreiberpalooza was held on the same weekend as the Rubber Duckie Race. “It was not sustainable, primarily for staff (members) and volunteers,” he said. “We’ve held it on Mother’s Day weekend in May the past two years and ran into schedule conflicts with other May events (such as) graduations, proms, and the like that probably hurt attendance a bit. We recognize that moving the date again creates some challenges, but we know

the area entertainment calendar is more open, (with) fewer competing events, in February.” Thus, Schreiberpalooza will be held on Saturday, Feb. 8, from 5:30 to 10:30 p.m. at Clair Brothers, 1 Clair Blvd., Manheim. Local bands Vinyl Groov, 3rd Power Family Soul, and The Usual Suspects will be the featured performers. The Usual Suspects blends Dorden Biving, lead singer of Mama Tried, and Good 2 Go members Jim Darby and Scott Bacon and will be participating in Schreiberpalooza for the first time. 3rd Power Family Soul, which bills itself as the ultimate dance band, and Vinyl Groov, a special occasion dance and show band, will both appear in the music festival for the second time. Vinyl Groov is led by vocalist and rhythm and blues aficionado Harold “Lark” Lowery. Trumpeter Todd Fulginiti, who recently left Vinyl Groov See Schreiberpalooza pg 2

age group finishers and top three relay finishers. All participants will receive a tech shirt. Discounted entry fees per individual and per relay team will be available to those who register through Tuesday, March 31. Separate registration fees for individuals and for the relay will be higher from Wednesday, April 1, until registration ends on Thursday, April 23. Registration is available through www.active.com. In preparation leading up to the TRI for Life event, Hempfield recCenter will offer a Triathlon Preparation Class for people age 13 and up. Sports performance coach Dan Cless and veteran triathlete Joe Ruiz will coach participants in strength training and performance skills to assist people of all levels, from those new to triathlons to elite Ironman athletes. The 12-session class will run from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. on Mondays, Feb. 3 to April 20. Separate fees have been set for rec center members and for nonmembers. In addition to TRI for Life, Hempfield

recCenter will offer the 2020 Youth TRI for Fun, a noncompetitive event for children ages 7 to 12. It will take place on Saturday, May 2, at 5 p.m. Children may participate in the following age groups: ages 7 and 8, ages 9 and 10, and ages 11 and 12. Each group will complete the course with varying distances for each leg. Each participant will receive a medal, T-shirt, and goodie bag. To register for the youth event, readers may visit www.hempfieldrec.com or stop by Hempfield recCenter. Participants must register in advance; they may not register on the day of the event. There is an entry fee perparticipant. Proceeds from both events will support Hempfield recCenter’s Everyone Belongs financial assistance program, providing wellness opportunities and other services for those who cannot otherwise afford them. For more information, readers may contact Jamie McGlaughlin, director of fitness and wellness, at jmcglaughlin@hempfieldrec.com or 717898-3102, ext. 138.

Sewing Classes from pg 1 1 to 4 p.m. on Thursdays, Feb. 13 and 20. This class is ideal for homeschooled students, as it is a project she taught in high schools, Lucidi said. Incidentally, “jelly roll” has nothing to do with cake and preserved fruit. Rather, it is the term used to describe a collection of 2.5-inch-wide strips of coordinated fabric. Students will be taught to create their own from fabric scraps, or jelly rolls may be purchased at practically any fabric store. Some sewing at home will be required. “Sewing Quilt Endings” will be held from 9 a.m. to noon on Fridays, March 6 and 13. A sample book with a variety of borders and bindings will be completed in this class. The book can be used as a reference for flat borders, bias and straightgrain binding, miters, and bindings for curved edges. An introduction to quilting, in which participants will sew a quilted nine-patch table runner, will be held from 1 to 4 p.m. on Thursdays, March 19 and 26 and April 2 and 16. All classes will be held in the blue room of Stauffer Mansion, 1241 Lititz Pike, Lancaster. Lucidi remembers taking needlework classes at Stauffer Mansion in her youth, so she finds it special to now be a teacher there. Her classes are offered during daylight hours to accommodate retirees, she said, adding that sewing skills can be used to make gifts for loved ones or charitable causes. Additionally, she noted, the camaraderie developed in classes and in the sewing community at large is a

valuable benefit. “(The classes are) a good beginning or to get back into sewing,” Lucidi said. While students do not need to know all of the ins and outs of sewing, they will need to know how to thread their sewing machine, fill its bobbins, and conduct basic operations like straight and zigzag stitches. Students must provide their own sewing machines in good working order, including power cords and foot pedals, bobbins, and thread, as well as extension cords and the owner’s manuals, if available. Many manuals are accessible via the internet. Sewing tools such as a scissors; a rotary cutter, mat, and ruler; and extra machine needles will also be required for the classes. Lucidi will send a supply list to enrolled students before each class begins. There is a cost to participate in the classes, and each class has a small additional fee for materials. Lucidi requested that students register no later than four days before the first day of each class, although she said she would accept registrations for the jelly roll pillow class as late as Tuesday, Feb. 11. For pricing and registration, readers may visit www.manheimtownship.org /253/Recreation-and-Park-Planning or contact Manheim Township Recreation and Park Planning Department adult and family program manager Harry Norton at 717-290-7180, ext. 3103, or hnorton@manheimtownship.org.

Gavin Krawizcki placed third in the 100-meter freestyle for the Hempfield boys in their 103-67, Section One loss to Penn Manor last Tuesday at Hempfield Rec Center. next meet and Hempfield potentially by Ara Grigorian

Hempfield’s Ardan McHugh turned in a 1:15.15 to finish third in the 100-meter butterfly during the Black Knights’ 103-67, Section One loss to Penn Manor last Tuesday at Hempfield Rec Center.

The Knights’ Cassandra Christoffel posted a time of 1:13.07 to finish second in the 100-meter backstroke to help the Hempfield girls to a 110-60, Section One victory over Penn Manor last Tuesday at Hempfield Rec Center.

Hempfield’s swimming and diving teams competed against Penn Manor and Cedar Crest over a three-day period this past week. The boys’ team defeated Cedar Crest 91-79 on Thursday, January 23. Two days prior to that, the Comets topped the Knights 103-67. Hempfield came away with a 2-2 league record (6-2 overall) following the week’s events. Will Russell’s tenacious effort in the 500 freestyle gave Hempfield its only first-place finish in the boys’ meet with Penn Manor. Russell finished in 4:57.91. Russell joined Josh Sahd, Xander Hughes and Johnathan Sescilla for the 400 free relay win at 3:39.87 in the Crest meet. Sahd and Russell also claimed freestyle individual events with Russell taking the 200 in 2:02.43 and Sahd the 50 free in 23.84. The girls’ team improved to 3-1 and 7-1 by defeating both Manor and Crest. In Tuesday’s Section One meet at the Hempfield Rec Center, the Knights topped the Comets 110-60. On Thursday they downed the Falcons 106-64. The group of relay swimmers the Hempfield girls competed with came away with a sweep in the three events. The group included Ella Root, Maggie Shaffer, Katelyn Wigglesworth, Anna Koger and Emily Taylor - each of whom was involved in two of the three first-place finishes. Root, Shaffer and Taylor joined Cassandra Christoffel for a winning time of 2:10.72 in the 200-yard medley relay. Wiglesworth, Root, Koger and Rory Cantwell claimed the 200 free relay at 1:59.53 while Shaffer anchored the 400 free relay (4:24.62) finishing for Wiglesworth, Taylor and Koger. Shaffer had the winning pace of 4:55.40 in the 500 freestyle and won the 50 free in 29.22. Wiglesworth won the 200 individual medley (2:39.44) and the 100 butterfly at 1:11.27. Root’s time of 1:19.00 earned a first in the 100 breaststroke and Lillian Farmer won the 100 back in 1:12.96. The girls’ defeat of Crest set up a possible three-way tie for first place in Section One. With Manheim Township (4-0) taking on Warwick (3-1) in its

defeating McCaskey, it could create that three-way tie. Caroline Schweigert joined Root, Wiglesworth and Koger for the 200 medley relay win with a time of 1:56.95 while Koger, Shaffer and anchor swimmer Wiglesworth welcomed Cassandra Christoffel for the 400 free relay win (3:54.30). Schweigert won the 100 back in 1:05.91 and Shaffer the 200 free in 2:03.78. Wiglesworth won two individual events - the 100 free (56.17) and 50 free (25.69) - to go with winning time of 2:20.36 by Emily Taylor in the 200 IM. Koger won the 100 fly at 1:04.75 and Root the 100 breaststroke in 1:09.94. GIRLS’ BASKETBALL With two more league victories under their belts, the Hempfield Black Knights improved to 10-0 in Lancaster-Lebanon League girls’ basketball play this year. The Knights topped Penn Manor and Cedar Crest before wrapping up the week at Governor Mifflin in a non-league game. Tuesday’s 40-33 victory at Landisville was a game that required some regrouping for the Knights. “We lost a bit of our discipline toward the end of the first half,” stated head coach Kendra Merrifield. “After getting out to a big lead, we lost our focus a little bit. Penn Manor

Ella Root added first-place points to the Hempfield girls’ 110-60, Section One victory over Penn Manor last Tuesday with a 1:19.00 win in the 100-meter breaststroke.

brought their game and took it to us. “We collected our minds and had a good second half,” continued the coach. “We really got it done against Penn Manor.” The Knights managed to hang on to a 24-17 halftime lead. In the third quarter they held the Comets to only six points and held on for the win. Lauren Moffatt put up 14 points to lead the way. Lindsey Durkota scored 10 points while Autumn Cook and Jess Weinoldt each scored five. Penn Manor’s Sydney Shepos tied Moffatt for the game’s top scoring total of 14. Friday’s game was a defensive battle which ended in a 34-17 final at

Cedar Crest. The Knights’ defense held the Falcons’ offense to zero points scored in the second quarter and limited Crest’s leading scorer, Sarah Laney to only six points. “The first time we played Cedar Crest, Sarah Laney had three threepointers against us,” Merrifield said, referring to a close 47-46 Hempfield win on January 8. “Jessica Weinoldt and Lauren Rigg did a great job keeping their top scorers in check. They were given their assignments for their leading scorers. If we can defend and keep teams under their averages, even though we’re not an offensive machine, we can definitely put points up.

Lauren Riggs pressures Penn Manor’s Evelyn Weaver during Photo by Doug Hilton Hempfield’s 40-33 victory in Hempfield’s Sophie Herman drives the baseline on Penn last Tuesday’s Section One Manor’s Emily Riggs during the Black Knights’ 40-33, Section matchup in Landisville. One victory over the visiting Comets last Tuesday.

“We took our time and controlled the tempo, taking time off the clock,” added the coach. Weinoldt provided offense too. She scored a game-high 10 points while Durkota scored seven, and Brynne Axe scored six. “Brynne comes in off the bench and adds a spark defensively,” Merrifield remarked. The Mifflin game was against one of District Three’s top-ranked teams. The Mustangs, ranked fourth in the district’s Class-6A power rankings, topped Hempfield 52-20. Kira Mattes scored seven points for the Knights, hitting a pair of threepoint jump shots. Durkota also had a three-pointer, her only bucket of the game. The Knights find themselves seventh in the District Three 6A power rankings, right behind Manheim Township, a team that trails the Knights by two games in the Section One standings. Merrifield was asked of the goals for section championship and subsequent league and district trophies. “We have mentioned the section and being within reach of it,” she replied. “But we are taking it one game at a time - the game that’s in front of us.” WRESTLING The Hempfield wrestlers came out determined to maintain their unbeaten record against L-L League opponents when they faced Warwick on the road Wednesday night. The Knights pinned down a 42-18 victory to improve to 7-0 in the league. “As a team we wanted to win the section title outright,” said head coach Shane Mack. “The Warwick match was the final section match.” Hempfield scored 25 points from the start and built a 29-3 lead through the first seven bouts. Braden Edwards won the 106pound fight with a major decision over Sebastian Oliveras, 9-1. Gio Luciano followed with a hard-fought 10-7 win at 113 while Caleb Schultz earned six more on a pin at 120. A forfeit at 126 and Reagan Lefevre’s late third-period pin in the 132-pound bout made it 25-0. “Caleb Schultz, Reagen Lefevre and Dylan Bard’s falls helped put some

distance between us and a solid Warwick team,” Mack said. Warwick did win two close decisions at 138 and 152 where Grant Hoover came up short in a 2-0 decision and Joel Dionne by a 4-3 margin in the latter. Sandwiched in between was Karmon Fickes posting a major decision (14-5) at 145. Bard’s pin at 170 followed an Ian Edwards 13-6 decision at 160. Warwick did build some momentum with a 7-2 decision at 182 and a pin at 195. “Caleb Musselman’s win at 220 broke up the momentum Warwick was building with their upper weights,” Mack remarked. Musselman won on an 11-1 major decision to record four more points, bringing Hempfield’s lead to 42-15. Hempfield would go on to win the L-L League Wrestling Championships, which were held at Manheim Township January 24-25. The Knights’ strong performances through the year against league rivals translated to a league title as they compiled 224 team points. Garden Spot finished second with 186.5 points. The championships featured Ian Edwards (160) and Lefevre (132) winning it all. Meanwhile Grant Hoover’s weekend at 138 resulted in a thirdplace finish. Bard (170) and Gio Luciano at 113 also finished third. The championship run for Edwards included a pin against Pequea Valley’s Collin Bailey and a 7-2 decision in the quarterfinals. He pinned Kole Marely of Penn Manor in 58 seconds in the semifinals and earned a 6-4 decision in the title bout. Luciano had a bye in the first round, but went on to pin Lebanon’s Sam Davenport in the second round. He also pinned in the quarterfinals but lost a 4-2 decision in the semis to Lancaster Catholic’s Eric Howe. In the consolation round, he earned a 12-6 decision in the semis and claimed the third-place bout with a 5-1 victory. Hoover’s climb to third place started with two pins, but was derailed temporarily on a 9-5 loss in the quarterfinals. He majored McCaskey’s Jon Berlinger in the first round of the consis and won an overtime match fol-

Konnor Axe led Hempfield with 18 points, hitting from three-point range four times and going 2-for-2 at the foul line. Ryan Hilton reached double figures (12) while Sam Bennett scored seven. With the loss to Cedar Crest on Friday, the Knights fell to 4-6 in league play. The game concluded with an exciting fourth quarter in which the Knights outscored the visitors 23-20.

Bard pinning Connor Charles in the first round and topping Patrick Gibble (Elco) by 9-6 in the second round advanced him to the quarterfinals at 170, where he pinned Manor’s Anthony Glessner. The semifinal match didn’t go his way, but a pin 46 seconds into the first consolation match streamlined him to the thirdplace bout where he edged Cocalico’s Ben Bearinger 3-2.

Meet Poppy, the newest local Groundhog Day prognosticator and arguably the cutest. Poppy, a groundhog from the Raven Ridge Wildlife Center, will be visiting Columbia Crossing, 41 Walnut St., Columbia, on Saturday, Feb. 1, from 1 to 3:30 p.m. for some preGroundhog Day festivities that the public is invited to join in. There is a per-person admission fee, but children age 4 and younger will be admitted free of charge. All proceeds will benefit Raven Ridge Wildlife Center located in Washington Boro. Poppy and her handler, Betsy Shank, will offer a brief presentation on groundhogs, including some trivia on Groundhog Day. A Conestoga family discovered Poppy alone at approximately 4 weeks of age in May 2019 and transported her to Raven Ridge Wildlife Center. “When she was found, she was too small to be out of the den,” noted licensed wildlife rehabilitator and Raven Ridge director Tracie Young. As Poppy was being cared for and acclimating to outdoor life at Raven Ridge, she began to show problems with her teeth. Vet-

erinarians eventually determined she had maloccluded - or crooked - teeth that were not growing in properly, which would mean she could not survive on her own in the wild. “A lot of times mother nature and animals know things like that, so that’s probably why (Poppy’s) mother abandoned her,” Young explained. Poppy’s incisors were surgically removed, and she became trained and fully permitted by the Pennsylvania Game Commission and United States Department of Agriculture as an educational ambassador at Raven Ridge. Over time, Poppy bonded tightly with Shank, who is a Raven Ridge team leader. “Betsy takes care of Poppy and has the body language of Poppy down. So if we are ever at an event and Poppy is stressing, she’ll notice and know what to do,” Young said. The approximately 11-pound groundhog now spends the bulk of her winter days like any other groundhog: slumbering. “Groundhogs are one of Pennsylvania’s true hibernators,” shared Young. Poppy exercises each morning and has some time to roam around before she has a meal. “Then it’s siesta time,” said Shank.

All sorts of leafy greens and foods like sweet potatoes, apples, broccoli, and cauliflower make up the bulk of Poppy’s diet as a grazing herbivore, but she has a few other favorites, too. “Teddy Grahams and peanuts are her kryptonite,” Shank said. Groundhogs and their incredible digging skills may be a nuisance to farmers and homeowners, but Shank said groundhogs actually help the Earth in numerous ways. Groundhogs help to aerate soil and transfer seeds. Plus, their dens pro- Raven Ridge Wildlife Center director vide housing that allows Tracie Young (left) and team leader Betsy other wildlife to thrive. Shank (right) invite the public to meet “People don’t like Poppy the groundhog at Columbia Crossgroundhogs until they have ing for pre-Groundhog Day festivities a chance to see one up close from 1 to 3:30 p.m. on Feb. 1. and learn about what amazto support its continued efforts in rehabiliing animals they really are,” said Shank.
