On Thursday, Nov. 7, North Star Initiative will host a Tapas Shindig to R.I.S.E. from 6 to 8:30 p.m. at SUPPLY, 280 S. Oak St., Manheim.

Though I fall, I will rise; though I sit in darkness, the Lord is a light for me.” The Harbor is designed to provide a safe haven for women ages 18 to 40 who are survivors of sex trafficking. It has capacity for up to 10 residents at a time. Esbenshade explained that The Harbor Restoration Program aims to provide psychological, physical, emotional, and See Tapas Shindig pg 3

USA Field Hockey director of coach education and learning Craig Parnham, a two-time Olympic athlete and three-time Olympic coach, believes that the role of a coach is to guide - a concept he expounded on as the keynote speaker at the fifth annual Leadership Inspired event held on Oct. 16 at Spooky Nook Sports in Manheim. “This team will fully function and thrive if I am removed from the process, but to get to that point takes quite a bit of work,” stated Parnham.
