“Sometimes there are frictions within yourself. Mind, body, spirit is a whole entity working within itself.”

The sixth annual Midsummer Holistic Expo will be conducted from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Saturday, July 11, and from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Sunday, July 12, outside of and inside multiple rooms of the Lancaster Farm and Home Center, 1383 Arcadia Road, Lancaster.

achel Eberly is finished with her schooling for now, but her evolution as a person continues. The Lancaster Inferno provides her with an opportunity for continued self-exploration through soccer, a game she has always played.

“I have evolved tremendously as both a player and a person through soccer,” said Eberly. “I credit much of my confidence and my maturity to Lancaster Inferno. From starting with the club at 17 years old to now entering my fifth season, I have changed immensely over the years. Soccer has taught me how important it is to show up fully in everything you do. Your effort impacts everyone around you, including those watching. The

Humans are adaptable; we can function quite well when one or two of the pillars of our existence are out of whack. But to really live - to thrive - we need mind, body and spirit to be aligned and functioning as one.

Fostering Pets a Chance to Be Part of the Journey Anne Hendricks, outreach coordinator with All 4 Paws Rescue, a nonprofit, fosterbased, all-breed organization located in Malvern, is familiar with the most common excuse potential pet foster parents give.

“They all say, ‘I could never foster because I would want to adopt them all,’” noted Hendricks, who has fostered more than 100 dogs over nine years. “We have all foster-failed at least once,” she added, referring to a foster dog she knew she would be keeping within the first 24 hours of fostering her.

According to Kisha Reinmiller, site director for Pennsylvania SPCA Lancaster Center, many who foster do become adoptive pet parents. “ We are always recruiting new fosters,” she shared. “A lot of them adopt for the first time.”

Both organizations reported that becoming a foster parent for an animal is not complicated. The Lancaster Center application can be found online at www.pspca .org, and the All 4 Paws application is at www.all4pawsrescue .com. Representatives of both organizations noted that the foster application is similar to the adoption application. “We process (the applications), and then we reach out,” said Reinmiller.

Hendricks pointed out that for potential fosters who already have pets, contacting the applicant’s vet is a crucial step. “We talk to the vet to be sure (the applicant’s) pets have been well taken care of,” she stated.

CAVOD Camps Are Cures for Summertime Blues

Dancers execute movements at CAVOD summer camps.

BY JEFF FALK

The summer months afford students an opportunity to take breaks from classroom studies.

But kids want to be active. Kids want to learn in other ways. Kids want to explore themselves.

At CAVOD Performing Arts’ creative and inspiring summer camps, all of those discoveries are in play.

“Our mission is to create with purpose,” said Connie Dienner, the founder of CAVOD Performing Arts and the organization’s executive director for the past 22 years. “We want the children to have fun and express themselves. I think they’ll get an opportunity to explore and

discover things in the arts.”

CAVOD Performing Arts, which is headquartered at 665 W. Main St., New Holland, is again offering five summer camps for students interested in dancing, singing, acting and creating. CAVOD’s weeklong instructional camps, which will be offered throughout the month of July, are designed to promote social skills, nurture growth and provide deeper messages.

All of the summer camps will provide snacks and feature closing programs that are open to parents, relatives and friends.

There are costs involved with CAVOD’s camps.

No Town Celebrates 4th of July Like Lititz

BY JEFF FALK

Each annual 4th of July celebration at Lititz Springs Park is better than the one that preceded it. This year’s patriotic community event commemorating our country’s 250th birthday may be the best local 4th of July celebration ever.

“There is that pressure to outdo what you did last year,” said Kellye Martin, who’s been the chair of the Lititz Springs Park board’s 4th of July committee for nine years. “But people do like the simplicity of it. We try to think of something new to add, but it’s not necessarily modern. Newer or different doesn’t always mean modern. “ We’ve had this date in mind for years,” added Martin. “We also know we have a great celebration established. We wanted to keep what people were expecting of us and add a couple of new things.”

The Lititz Springs Park board’s 209th Independence Day festivities will officially get underway at noon on Saturday, July 4, at the park at 24 N. Broad St. But the official 4th of July celebration will be preceded by a week of local patriotic events, leading up to the yearly Lions Club parade through town beginning at 11 a.m. on July 4 - not to mention the annual blanket race for prime fireworks viewing

will be on hand on that special day.

There are fees associated with entrance to the holiday festivities at Lititz Springs Park. The event is being sponsored by more than 35 businesses and organizations.

“Our fireworks are so great,” said Martin, a resident of Warwick Township.

“But the candle lighting is my favorite part. There’s something about candle lighting over water that takes your breath away. It’s kind of like the pinnacle of the day.”

More than 13,000 individuals - mostly from the Lititz area - are expected to attend the Lititz Springs Park’s 4th of July celebration. It takes more than 200 volunteers to stage the event, from planning, which begins in September, to post-celebration cleanup. “ They are people who love Lititz,” said Martin.

“They are people who love this event. They are people

who enjoy working next to their neighbors. They’re almost all local. I’m so thankful we have volunteers who want to be a part of this event. They make this event happen.”

Members of the Lititz Springs Park board are seeking to realize about $100,000 from the 4th of July celebration.

“The funds generally put us in a pretty good position for the year,” said Martin.

“There’s also a goal of keeping the tradition going. The proceeds go toward paying the salaries of the grounds crew, maintenance, repair and special projects like painting, paving and walkways. We have a wish list.

We always hope there’s something left over so we can do something nice.”

Much has changed since Independence Day was first celebrated in Lititz Springs Park in the early 1800s. But the patriotic community event has stayed true to its original purpose.

“I think the goals now are similar to the first ones, to raise money for the park,” said Martin. “Back then, they had plans to make the stream what it is today.

From what I’ve read, the goal was to bring the community together, and we definitely have the same goal. I think a lot of those things ring true today.”

The Lancaster Inferno’s 2026 11-match season runs from early May to late June.

“My role on the team is demonstrated through leadership, as I serve as one of three team captains,” said Eberly. “My job is to communicate with the other captains, as well as serve as a point of contact for my teammates if they have questions or concerns. Overall, I strive to set a good example for our team, supporters and the community.”

Eberly was one of the L ancaster Inferno’s 12

returning players for the 2026 campaign. The Inferno’s roster also included 11 new competitors.

“The best thing about Lancaster Inferno is the team culture, as well as the support from our community,” said Eberly, who first started playing the sport when she was 5. “I have made lifelong connections with teammates, coaches and even youth players because of this club. Our entire team has so much respect for one another, which makes competing together incredibly fun and meaningful. Our community also plays a huge role in our success and enjoyment as players.”

spots at 7 a.m. on that day. “ We just hope people have a great time,” said Martin. “ We hope they make a memory at some point throughout the day, a moment they will take with them. That’s what we do it for.”

For 10 afternoon and evening hours, more than 24 smaller events and activities will be staged within the grassy confines of Lititz Springs Park on the 4th of July. They will include everything from four entertainment acts at the band shell; five activities like carnival games and barrel train rides inside the kids’ zone; and traditional events like the pie eating contest, the baby parade, the DJ dance party and the queen of candles ceremony.

The park board’s 35-minute fireworks display set to a musical soundtrack will shoot off at 9:30 p.m.

Eberly, a 2022 product of Cocalico High School, recently graduated from George Mason University, which is located in Fairfax, Va. She completed a successful Division One college experience in the fall of 2025.

Eberly plays the same position, center midfield, for the Lancaster Inferno as she did for the Patriots during her college days.

“I would say my role with my college team was similar to my role with Lancaster Inferno,” said Eberly. “In

any environment, I always approach the game with the same mentality. I try to lead with respect and be the best teammate I can be. This is demonstrated through my hard work, perseverance, competitiveness and teamfirst mentality. With both teams, I have always given my all, and I continue to do so with Inferno.”

“If you’re not proactive about your health, you will inevitably get sick,” said Ruczhak-Eckman. “Being preventive is better than being sick. I’m also a genealogist. I know what my family has gone through.”

The Midsummer Holistic Expo will feature seven speakers expounding on a variety of wellness issues, including keynote speaker Eagle Skyfire, a Native American author. The event will also include more than 50 vendors offering candles, essential oils, books, massages, teas, reflexology treatments, tie-dye clothing, artisan goods and more.

In addition, the Midsummer Holistic Expo, which is designed to unite the regional holistic community, will offer workshops.

“Our goal is to bring together like-minded people and promote what holistic means,” said Ruczhak-Eckman. “The vibe is normally very calming.”

Of all the events that it sponsors, few epitomize the Lititz recCenter’s mission in quite the same way that its annual triathlon does.

“You don’t have to be really fit to do it,” said Simon Ababou, Lititz recCenter’s fitness director, who founded the triathlon in 2015. “Our triathlon is good for beginners. You just have to practice a little bit and take your time.”

The Lititz recCenter’s annual triathlon is approaching. This year’s version of the unique community event will be contested from the recCenter’s headquarters at 301 Maple St., Lititz, at 8 a.m. on Sunday, Aug. 9 - with one notable supplementation.

In addition to the swim-bikerun triathlon, the event will also feature a new bike-run competition for athletes not necessarily interested in swimming. Pre-event registration for both races can be completed at https://lititzrec.com.

Registration will also be available in-person on the day of the race, between 6:30 and 7:30 a.m.

CAVOD’s summer camps will be led by 10 certified instructors and volunteers who are just as supportive as they are knowledgeable.

“The main thing is they’re very skilled and they know how to encourage children and teens, and it brings confidence,” said Dienner. “That’s another thing that comes out of camps, confidence. Our teachers believe in the young people.

“We want students to learn the importance of their classmates, how to value each one. How to be friends,” continued Dienner.

“We want them to know they are important. We want them to discover where their gifts are. I love the kids in the hallways, talking and experiencing themselves.

There’s so much positivity.”

The summer camps were one of the first programs established when Dienner founded CAVOD in 2004. CAVOD conducts more than 100 singing, dancing, acting and creative classes for kids, teenagers and adults throughout the year; stages a number of public performances inside of its New Holland theater annually; and offers private lessons, all the while praising and serving God. “Since we were founded, the community itself has grown,” said Dienner. “(CAVOD) has become a community. It’s become a home, a place for those interested in the arts. I think the summer camps really open the door to new people to discover what we’re all about.”

CAVOD Performing Arts will also be conducting an open house in New Holland on Saturday, July 11, and celebrating a grand opening of additional space in Manheim on Saturday, Aug. 1.

The show usually pulls in around 300 to 400 vehicles.

“Each are a little different,” said Dienner. “It’s really a great time to come out, have fun and make new friends. Everyone is valued and accepted. Everyone feels they have a place. The studios are decorated beautifully.”

CAVOD’s first summer camp, titled “Once Upon a Kingdom,” will be staged from Monday, July 6, through Friday, July 10, in New Holland. Designed to nurture a love for dance, the immersive instruction will be offered for 3- to 6-year-olds from 9 a.m. to noon and for 7- to 12-year-olds from 1 to 5 p.m.

Between 9 a.m. and noon from Monday, July 13, to Friday, July 17, CAVOD Performing Arts will present “Beautifully and Wonderfully Made,” a camp for little dancers from ages 3 to 8 at its Manheim location, 1223 Lancaster Road, Suite 115. That same week, from 4 to 6:30 p.m. in New Holland, CAVOD’s “Camp Create” will serve teenagers and adults with developmental and intellectual disabilities.

Summer at CAVOD will conclude with its “Summer Dance Intensive” camp from 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. from Monday, July 27, through Friday, July 31, in New Holland. The developmental camp designed for dancers ages 10 and older will take campers’ skills to a new level through instruction from teachers and guest artists.

“They’re kids who have found out about us,” said Dienner, a resident of Leola. “Some have taken classes before; some are brand new to the arts. They’re just discovering, ‘This is so fun. I’ve never done this before. Why is this only one week?’ It gives them an opportunity to figure things out; then they put on a program.”

programs and child care. “(The triathlon and bike-run) fits with what we do at the recCenter,” said Ababou. “We have different programs for every age, from babies to seniors. The recCenter is a great, great organization with great leaders, great staff and great members.

I think the organization is growing, but it’s all about the community.”

pavilion at the fire company.

“I’ve been to lots of car shows, and Judy has too,” said club member Christine Weir, who noted that club members can also gives attendees rides from the parking area to the center of the field. “When it’s July or August, it’s hotter than blazes. You get your food and you’re in the sun; it’s hot. We actually have a pavilion in the shade, which is really nice.”

Hogs and Heroes Foundation, a community of motorc ycle riders who support military causes, will have a stand.

Those attending the car show are asked to bring nonperishable canned goods to support the food pantry at the Willow Street United Church of Christ (UCC).

Proceeds from the registration fees and bake sale will be donated to Solanco Neighborhood Ministries, Hope’s Haven, Building Bridges, and Willow Street UCC. The weather was not great for last year’s show, but the event still pulled in around 350 vehicles. Weir said that the show typically pulls in around 300 to 400 vehicles, depending on weather and when the event falls on the calendar. “ We’ve always lucked out pretty good with the weather,” Andrews said. “ That’s why we started doing it rain or shine, because it’s too confusing for the food vendors to come when they have stuff the next day, then they can’t come.”

The club has been in existence since 1994. It meets on the second Sunday of every month at 6 p.m. at Willow Street UCC, 2723 Willow Street Pike North, Willow Street. Everyone is welcome to attend, even if they do not own a classic or antique car.

“We just like the people that are in it,” Andrews said.

Weir added that the club is looking for new members to come to the show and to bring their significant other.

The club’s other major events include an annual Christmas party; outings to local restaurants; and trips to the Morgantown Auto Mall, located right on the border between Lancaster, Chester and Berks counties.

For more information about the club or car show, call Weir at 717-413-1699 or president Joe Snyder at 717-405-4068.

CLASSIFIEDS

Fostering from pg 1 Once an applicant is approved, the organization will want to learn the type of animal the foster parent would like to take in. “A lot of folks have preferences, whether it’s a large or small dog, a cat, or kittens,” stated Reinmiller. Other questions may reference lifestyle and family size, such as whether the home is high traffic.

At All 4 Paws, foster coordinator Melissa Kuchinski will contact the approved applicant to discuss the age and size of a possible foster dog and to learn whether small children or cats are present in the home. “We try to place (animals that) we think would work in that home,” explained Hendricks. Special attention is given to place animals with medical issues with more experienced foster caregivers, since these animals usually remain in foster care longer than the typical stay, which can range from a day or two to several months.

Meeting the animal that will be fostered is treated much like an adoption meeting at the Lancaster Center. If the meeting goes well, the foster care provider will receive crates, toys, food, and treats, and any necessary medical care will be covered. “ T he fosters are not out-of-pocket for anything (at All 4 Paws),” explained Hendricks. “We give them the white glove treatment,” she added, noting that the organization depends on donations to make that possible. Fosters also receive a list of rules that include instructions such as keeping a leash on the dog at all times. “Rescue dogs are a huge flight risk,” noted Hendr icks. “It ’s easier and safer to grab a leash than a dog.”

Training for dogs and foster parents can also be part of the mix. “We have training partners who work with us,” shared Hendricks, who recalled a dog she fostered who did not like to meet new people. “A training partner met with us for an hour and gave me hints, and (that dog is) now in a wonderful home,” she shared.

At the Lancaster Center, foster parents are given direct access to SPCA staff members even after hours.

“We can counsel, provide handouts, or talk on the phone about what to do with certain behaviors,” explained Reinmiller, who reaches out to fosters weekly to see how things are going.

According to Reinmiller, foster parents are a great source of infor mation about the pet and provide photos and videos that help in the adoption process.

“We are a municipal shelter contracted with local police to take strays,” explained Reinmiller, who noted that each dog is assessed at the center. “Foster homes are really helpful for us to get home knowledge for the dogs in our care … especially with dogs that are a little shy or have behavioral concerns or need medical care.”

Hendricks agreed, noting, “We can make a good match (for an adoptive home) using the information about the (pet provided by foster parents).”

Finding foster homes with volunteers who have had pets but do not have any at the moment is especially helpful because those foster parents have experience but are able to focus more on the animal being fostered.

Both organizations accept cats as well. “For the most part (with) cats, it’s mostly kitten fostering,” said Reinmiller. “It’s socializing and housing until they are old enough to come to the shelter for adoption.” Kittens must be eight weeks old or weigh two pounds to stay at the shelter.

At All 4 Paws Rescue, both rescues and owner surrenders that are not immediately adopted go to foster homes the same day. “We like the foster care system because it gives the (pet) a home as opposed to

“Probably the best ice cream in the world.”

To us, the best means producing a truly authentic, premium product.

We start with happy, healthy cows who live at our American Humane Certified™ dairy and focus on top quality ingredients that result in superior taste you can savor.

While you may be seeing more and more “frozen dairy desserts” on the shelf, we still offer REAL ice cream made with less air and higher milkfat for a creamy bite every time.

Try it for yourself and we think you’ll probably agree!
