Swarr is also a former character coach for Cocalico High School wrestling. “We are looking for volunteers and for coaches willing to have character coaches (help out),” added FCA’s Kyle Martin, who works with students at Lampeter -Strasburg, Conestoga Valley,
and Solanco high schools. Adam Burns, FCA area representative with Pequea Valley and Ephrata high schools, noted that the job of a character coach is to serve the coaching staff team in any way he or she can, and that a volunteer need not be proficient in a sport to be a character coach. Character coaches are asked to aid the head coach with a focus on social and emotional development of student-athletes. Objectives include encouraging athletes, working to create a positive culture, and helping to develop leadership characteristics in athletes. The first See FCA pg 3

It’s a workspace and a play space. It’s a venue and a destination. It’s a place to create art and a place to market art. But perhaps even more importantly, Mulberry Art Studios is about April Koppenhaver’s inspiration, her commitment to the community, her creativity, her love for art. “Art is fundamental to the growth and sustaining of a culture,” said Koppenhaver, the founder, operator and director of Mulberry Art Studios. “All
art makes us feel and think, and it shares with us different perspectives. All of life can be taken to the level of art. When people start putting things together, it’s art. It’s a higher consciousness. Sometimes when you see art and there’s no soul there - I have a hard time calling it art. It’s a way to connect with another person’s soul.” Located at 19-21 N.

Ideas for healthy eating Diet and exercise are the key components of maintaining a healthy weight and protecting against chronic disease. According to the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services, eating smart and being active have similar effects, including reducing risk for heart disease, high blood pressure, stroke, some cancers, and diabetes. In addition, these healthy living strategies can improve personal appearance and can improve overall well-being, helping people live longer and maintain their independence. People may wonder how to eat better when faced with
many diets, each of which promises great results. Navigating the options can be confusing, and there is no magic formula to eating better. Common sense can come into play when attempting to eat better, and individuals also can consider the following strategies to make a diet work for them as they seek to live healthier. - Eat colorful, varied, nutritionally dense foods. Medical News Today says each meal should be 50% fruit and vegetables, 25% whole grains, and 25% protein. Select an array of colorful foods that will provide most of the nutrients needed.
- Choose fiber-rich foods. Fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains, nuts, and legumes are good sources of fiber. Fiber helps people maintain digestive health and can help a person to feel fuller longer, reducing the potential for overeating, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. - Note how you feel after eating. Create a food journal where you jot down notes about how you feel after eating certain foods. If you notice that certain foods or ingredients trigger adverse reactions, it may be worth avoiding that type of food or looking for an alternative.
Stomach upset or bloating after eating dairy, for example, may indicate an intolerance for lactose. - Explore the Mediterranean diet. While it’s wise to avoid fad diets that often produce short-term but unsustainable results, the Mediterranean diet has stood the test of time. According to the authors of a study published in JAMA Network Open in October 2023, middle-aged and older adults who were overweight or obese and had metabolic syndrome lost visceral fat (belly fat) and showed a greater reduction in the percentage of total fat while adhering to a Mediterranean
diet. They also had delayed loss of lean body mass, which often comes with aging. Mediterranean diets prioritize legumes, seafood, vegetables, and healthful fats like olive oil. - Control portion sizes. Sometimes it’s not what a person eats but how much he or she eats that affects h e a l t h . We i g h i n g a n d measuring food can help a person control portions and understand how many calories he or she is consuming each day. The National Institutes of Health says eating plans that favor 1,200 to 1,500 calories per day for women and 1,500 to 1,800 for men are good targets to
lose weight at a healthy pace when combined with moderate exercise. - Focus on adding healthy foods to your diet rather than on trying to avoid detrimental foods. The greater quantity of healthy foods are eaten, the more unhealthy ones will fall by the wayside. Focusing on the positive can help people feel less restricted by healthy eating plans. Balanced eating is a major component of a healthy lifestyle. While there are many fad diets, eating plans with a proven track record that are supported by the medical community may be the best bet.

of ways. Since nuts are high in calories, it is important to eat them in moderation.
Foods that can help keep cholesterol in check Diet plays an important role in maintaining healthy cholesterol numbers. Although the level of cholesterol in a person’s blood is partly due to factors related to heredity, the foods one
eats also affect cholesterol levels. When doctors discuss cholesterol with their patients, they may refer to total cholesterol, bad cholesterol and good cholesterol. What
do those terms mean? Total cholesterol is the combined number of cholesterol in the blood, and it should be below 200. Good cholesterol - that is, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) - ideally should be

Oats and more Individuals likely have heard that oatmeal is good for helping to reduce cholesterol numbers. Oatmeal has soluble fiber, which lowers LDL cholesterol by reducing the absorption of cholesterol into the bloodstream. Oat bran and other high-fiber grains also are good to enjoy.

team?” he asked. “We don’t want to emotionally react. We want to take a deep breath and respond.” Swarr said that the FCA volunteer process includes an application and a 30-minute training video. “It’s an introduction to FCA’s discipleship strategy,” he said. “Ideally, (volunteers) meet regularly with the local staff people for resources and advice.” Burns added that character coaches are asked to be at each home game
and to try to be at practice once or twice a week for 30 minutes as their schedule allows. FCA has chapters in nearly every Lancaster County school district, and the organization is eager to meet individuals who would like to serve as character coaches and team coaches who are open to taking part in the program.

Estate planning seminar posted St. Matthew Lutheran Church, 700 Pleasure Road, Lancaster, will host “Essential Estate Planning” on Wednesday, Jan. 17, from 6 to 7 p.m. The program is free and open to the public. Stephen Feldmann will speak on why a person should do estate planning, how to prepare for this task, essential estate planning tools and how they work, and the probate process and how estate administration should work. Feldmann has been an active community leader in the southern Pennsylvania area for nearly 40 years. He spent 34 years in the trust administration and wealth management business, most of it with M&T Bank and its York-area predecessors. After retiring from banking, he recently served the York County Bar Foundation as director of development. Feldmann’s civic engagement extends over his entire career and includes board appointments with organizations such as the Alzheimer’s Association of Central Pennsylvania; OPEN, an AIDS support ministry in York; York Little Theater; The Salvation Army; United Way of York County, which named him Volunteer of the Year; and the York County History Center. He also served for seven years on the board of the York County Bar Foundation, including a year as its president. His professional affiliations
have included the Estate Planning Councils of both York and Lancaster counties, Leave a Legacy, and the Financial Planning Association of Central Pennsylvania. He has conducted or facilitated strategic thinking/planning, estate planning workshops and planned giving seminars for area groups and organizations, and he co-taught courses in estate settlement and estate planning for PBI and other continuing education organizations. Born and raised in York, Feldmann graduated from Central York High School and received a Bachelor of Arts in history from Allegheny College and a Master of Arts in American studies from Penn State University. He earned the Certified Financial Planner designation in 2008. This program is part of St. Matthew’s Conversation Around the Corner speaker series. The aim of the series is to unite the community by exploring diverse subjects and fostering learning and connection. scan this code for more local news townlively.com

Martin noted that his experience has included working through emotions with a student who was benched by a coach due to a class disruption. He has also worked on character development with team leaders. “The way you react to things on the field can change anyone’s perspective,” he said, noting that in one game an opposing team player made an inappropriate gesture as he crossed home plate. “How do we respond to that as a

year of serving usually involves building relationships, followed by working to develop leadership skills. “If the door opens to spiritual conversation, that’s awesome, but the sole purpose is to serve,” added Burns. Burns also noted that character coaching may look different depending on the specific sport and the players. He pointed out that Diana Roth, who is the FCA representative for ELANCO and Cocalico school districts and Lancaster Mennonite High School, is also a character coach for the Garden Spot girls’ soccer team. “It’s a team of girls with an all-male coaching staff,” explained Burns. “(Her role) opens doors for girls when they’re going through stuff. She is there to be on the bench and develop relationships.” Burns recalled that one of his first experiences as a character coach for the Pequea Valley baseball team was to oversee six students who needed to complete schoolwork to be academically eligible to play. “We would have had to forfeit three games the following week because we would

Lancaster County’s living history BY ADRIAN ESCHENWALD
Lancaster County holds the roots of a rich history that predates the founding of the United States. As one of the original 13 colonies, Pennsylvania is among the first locations in America that European settlers decided to make their home several hundred years ago. Although this may seem like ancient history to modern-day Lancastrians, the area’s wealth of historical buildings and artifacts reminds us that many stories in our history books took place right in our backyards. One of Lancaster County’s oldest structures is the Hans Herr House, which is now a part of the 1719 Museum, 1849 Hans Herr Drive, Willow Street. The home was built by Mennonite settlers in 1719, and it served as the centerpiece for the entire Mennonite congregation in Willow Street. The building remains the oldest Mennonite meeting place in the country, as well as the oldest house in Lancaster County. In addition to preserving the Hans Herr House,
one of the 1719 Museum’s goals is to make the area’s history easily accessible to the community. The museum accomplishes this goal by offering educational programs such as guided tours of the property. Every year, the 1719 Museum invites members of the public to attend a training course to become qualified tour guides. The course includes four sessions, which are held at both the Hans Herr House and Mennonite Life, 2215 Millstream Road, Lancaster. This year, the sessions will take place on Saturdays, Jan. 27, Feb. 3, Feb. 24 and March 2. Each session will be held from 9:30 to 11:30 a.m., with the exception of Feb. 3, which will run longer. More details will be available closer to the date of the session. During the courses, trainees will learn about the history of both Mennonite settlers and the Native Americans who preceded them. In addition to leading tours of the Hans Herr House, tour guides will be responsible for taking visitors through a replica of an indigenous longhouse. The replica is based

on an archaeological discovery made in Washington Boro that is estimated to date back to the mid-1600s. Jess McPherson, a representative of local Native American advocacy group Circle Legacy Center, will give an educational presentation during the session on Feb. 3. “One of our main points of focus is working toward a world
where people learn both their own stories and stories that reach across boundaries,” said Heather Strahin, the 1719 Museum’s administrator. “Mennonite settlers and indigenous people both played an integral role in Lancaster’s history; it’s important to share their stories.” For more information and to sign up, visit http://tinyurl .com/1719guides.

dance, theater, culinary, photography, video, advertising, pottery, ceramics and different types of painting. But Mulberry Art Studios also offers classes, gallery spaces, studios and stages and promotes shows and displays for artists of varying notoriety. “We serve the community,” said Koppenhaver, a 68-year-old resident of Manheim. “We give grassroots artists the opportunity to show, as well as professionals. We’ve done individual shows and collective shows. When we started, there weren’t as many art galleries and it was harder to show. We want to give a platform to artists who aren’t known. We want to lift up their dreams and make them happen.”
With art as a backdrop, Mulberry Art Studios possesses the ambiance to host myriad celebrations for up to 220 guests. In addition to art shows, weddings, birthday parties, anniversary celebrations and special events are all common occurrences at Mulberry Art Studios. “The city is alive and well,” said Koppenhaver. “There are so many people who want to do what we offer. I feel like we’ve gotten our job done over the years. People want to walk to downtown in the city. We were the economic catalyst for the revitalization of Lancaster city. The buzz brings people and people bring prosperity. It’s a lot of people working for the same cause. An art center
Township rifle from pg 1 is very inclusive. We have to keep supporting the artists.” Koppenhaver started Mulberry Art Studios in June of 1988. She had a vision of what an arts center could do for the downtown; she took a chance and stuck to her guns. “When I walked into this building, I just knew it would work,” said Koppenhaver. “It needed a ton of work, but I felt somehow it would happen. I found an investor who loved Lancaster and loved the arts, and he was shocked no one else had come up with the idea before. People should be inspired to pursue their dreams and have stick-to-itiveness. Artists have to create. It’s just what we do. And people are intrigued by creation.”
Women invited to Bible studies Change of Pace Central has announced its winter women’s Bible studies. The gatherings will take place on Thursdays from 9 to 11:30 a.m. from Jan. 25 to March 28 at Lancaster Alliance Church, 210 Pitney Road, Lancaster. Two studies will be available, and copies of the books will be available for purchase on the first day. “What Does It Mean To Be Chosen?” by Amanda and Dallas Jenkins is based on season one of the television show “The Chosen.” Each session correlates to an episode of the show. Attendees
will examine both the Old and New Testaments, exploring the life of Jesus and His choosing of disciples. Those gathered for the study will watch the episode together as a group and then break into smaller groups for discussion. “Fully Alive” by Susie Larson focuses on the ways emotional, physical, and spiritual well-being are intertwined. Viewing holistic health from a Christian perspective, Larson shares biblical ways to replace defeating thoughts with redemptive ones, overcome
stress by embracing God’s peace, and more. A freewill offering will be received each week. Preregistration is suggested but not required; to register, email copcbiblestudies@ gmail.com. Child care will be provided, and homeschoolers are welcome. Children must be registered. Change of Pace Central is a non-denominational women’s bible study, sponsored by Friendship Foundation Inc.

and the state. There are other rifle leagues in Pennsylvania - mainly three-position and standing air rifle circuits - but the L-L League is the only one done from a prone position. “Rifle is different than other sports because it emphasizes individual and team goals,” said Noecker. “It takes a lot of mental focus. There’s a lot of mental energy to it because it’s about precision. If you breathe the wrong way, your shot can go off. It’s just you and the target. You don’t have to be the biggest. You don’t have to be the strongest. But you have to keep your mind in the game.” “Rifle has helped me with mental discipline and having a peaceful mindset,” said senior captain Michael Zimmerman. Competitors in prone rifle shoot pellets from .117 caliber precision air rifles at targets 10 meters away from a lying position. “They are an eclectic group of just good kids,” said Noecker of the makeup of her team. “A lot of
