Kindness

BY ANN MEAD ASH

“It’s really just a fun night for our supporters to gather and celebrate the program in a way that lifts up our girls and makes it possible for more to participate,” said Sarah Yohe, director of community engagement with Girls on The Run (GOTR) of Lancaster and Lebanon, of the Kickin’ Up Kindness event that raises funds for GOTR scholarships.

This year’s event will be held at Landis Valley Village and Farm Museum, 2451 Kissel Hill Road, Lancaster, on Friday, Oct. 14, beginning at 6:30 p.m. It will be presented by PNC Bank.

The dress code for the event is casual, and Yohe recommended wearing jeans with a splash of pink. Dinner will consist of a buffet featuring a selection of foods from Rocky’s BBQ. A campfire will be located on-site for attendees to

enjoy. A live band will play bluegrass music for attendees’ listening and dancing pleasure, and a silent auction will be held.

According to Yohe, the silent auction will feature gift certificates from local stores and restaurants, along with experiences, such as trips. “LOA Orthodontics has donated a full orthodontic treatment,” said Yohe, who added that Orthopedic Associates of Lancaster (OAL) has donated their skybox at the Barnstormers’ stadium with a concession gift card.

Christina Santoleri, who has long coached GOTR teams in Lancaster city schools, will speak, and a live appeal with a goal of raising $30,000 for scholarships will be given. More than 50% of girls receive financial assistance to take part in GOTR programs, and the Kickin’ Up Kindness event is a major fundraiser to help meet scholarship needs.

Bill Terry, who founded the Lancaster County Veterans Breakfast Club, which meets on the third Saturday of each month, worked with Marc Spiridigliozzi and others to bring Todd DePastino, executive director of the Veterans Breakfast Club, from Pittsburgh to Woodcrest Villa for a special breakfast event on Sept. 17.

“(Hands-On-History Days) are very popular,” said Sheri Brown, workshop coordinator with Landis Valley Village and Farm Museum, 2451 Kissel Hill Road, Lancaster. Brown noted that Hands-On-History Days began as a day for homeschoolers to visit the museum. “(The event) has changed over the past 19 years to three days that we celebrate in October,” she added.

Hands-On-History Days, which were not held or were modified during the past two years due to COVID-19 restrictions, will return

More than 70 area veterans gathered to hear from DePastino, see Blankets of Honor bestowed, and hear and tell their stories among others who understand. “We get Army, Navy, Air Force, Coast Guard, National Guard, Marines,” said DePastino, who briefly interviewed a Marine named Ed Moreau while waiting for breakfast to be served. Moreau relayed what it was like to be the lone Marine in a family of Navy veterans. “My Dad said, ‘I can forgive you because the Marine Corps is a department of the Navy,’” Moreau recalled. “I said, ‘That’s right, Dad; it’s the men’s department.’”

DePastino also spoke to Sara Hodgkiss, who transformed her family’s farm into an official nonprofit equineassisted therapy organization for veterans and people with disabilities called Woerth It Hollow. Hodgkiss told DePastino about her six years of service as a human resources information management specialist for 3,500 to 4,500 soldiers at a time.

Terry was interviewed about his unusual service as a Navy diving medical technician, who dove wearing suits of 180 to 300 pounds. Terry explained how he was trained to place IVs and perform minor surgery.

The first Blanket of Honor recipient at the breakfast was Spiridigliozzi. DePastino asked Spiridigliozzi about his time in the Army in Vietnam.

“I was a light weapons infantry man,” said Spiridigliozzi, who took part in about 26 combat assaults

with a Huey helicopter, which he called the “Calvary’s horse in Vietnam.”

Manny Acuna with Blankets of Honor presented Spiridigliozzi with a blanket, wrapping it around the veteran’s shoulders and saying, “We are here for you.” Joined by Terry and DePastino, the group offered prayer, with Acuna noting, “For your service, you shall not be forgotten. We thank you for your sacrifices.”

Blankets of Honor are given to Gold Star family members and other supporters of veterans. Acuna brought a supporter blanket to present to DePastino. “It represents the people who guard the freedom while we are away,” he explained. “We thank you for being here, Todd,” he added.

DePastino, who is not a veteran, explained his calling to be a supporter, saying, “I love being a part of the veteran community. This community is special. The camaraderie is intense, and I am an honorary part of the group.”

In addition to live Veterans Breakfast Club meetings, DePastino holds weekly virtual meetings at www.veterans breakfastclub.org, and he produces a free quarterly magazine for veterans called “VBC Magazine.”

The Veterans Breakfast Club generally meets at the Bird-in-Hand Family Restaurant and Smorgasbord, 2760 Old Philadelphia Pike, Birdin-Hand, beginning at 7 a.m. Breakfasts are free for veterans and spouses. To reserve a space, call 717-929-0310.

on Thursdays, Oct. 13, 20, and 27, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. each day. A per-person admission fee will be charged, but Landis Valley Associates members may attend for free, as can children age 5 and under. Groups of 10 or more are required to make reservations prior to attending.

“The whole purpose is to have (the activities) be hands on,” said Brown, who noted that the events will be fall themed. One of the most popular places to visit is an authentic schoolhouse, where a lesson based on a fall poem will be taught. “We use McGuffey Readers and historic books for our lesson plan,” said Brown, who noted that the schoolhouse was donated and moved to the site from Snake Hill Road in Leola. “(Students) work with a slate and chalk, and they learn elocution, (through what) we call tongue twisters today,” she said.

Students will also have opportunities to take part in farm chores from the 1700s and 1800s. “They will stuff a mattress with straw, so they get a true feel for a lumpy

mattress,” said Brown, who added that bedding was generally changed a couple times a year. “They will learn how laundry was done with a scrubbing board and the oldfashioned-dryer called a clothesline,” she added. Students will also learn to build a snake fence, so named because of its zig-zag shape.

“The bonus is those fences can be moved quickly,” explained Brown.

Organizers have turned a traditional Pennsylvania German folk art into a make-andtake craft for the event. “We will make scherenschnitte pumpkins and leaves they can take home,” said Brown, who said that at home, students can enhance their simple fallthemed decorations with watercolors or crayons.

In addition, museum staff members will be provide demonstrations and interpretations in areas such as tavern cooking, blacksmithing, leatherworking, and weaving.

Readers who would like more information or to make reservations may email c-sherbrow@pa.gov or call 717-569-0401, ext. 228.

Since 1940, National Newspaper Week has been observed the first full week in October, so I thought it appropriate to share my thoughts on why supporting your local newspaper is more important than ever.

It’s a popular notion that the internet has marked the downfall of community newspapers. And, while many have stopped publishing due to tough economic times, the rising cost of newsprint, and other factors, your community newspapers can do some-

thing the internet can’t: We promote connections at a local level. Some say that because people can tweet, blog, surf, shop, and search online, no one reads newspapers anymore, but you just proved that to be a myth.

Rather than being replaced by all the noise of “instant” media, your free local paper has become more important than ever. We are a part of your neighborhood. We shine a spotlight on people and organizations that make your town a better place to live, work, and play. No, they probably won’t get a million views

on TikTok, but they are heroes who live down the street and are making a positive difference in our community.

In the past year the publisher of this newspaper, Engle Printing & Publishing Co., Inc. (EPC) has featured more than 1,500 front-page articles benefiting more than 1,000 local nonprofit organizations in Lancaster, Chester, Berks, York, and Dauphin counties. Those numbers don’t take into account the thousands of press releases that make their way into our papers each year.

With all the talk about social media, why do we continue to publish free community newspapers? It’s who we are and

Wendy Royal, editor

who we’ve been for nearly 70 years. We live here, too, and we want to keep our communities thriving as much as you do.

CARE

Addressing Headlight Glare

Headlight glare becomes dangerous when visibility is impaired to a point where the risk of accidents is heightened. Glare is a growing problem for many modern drivers due to the increased use of light emitting diodes in headlights.

Driving at night is challenging because pedestrians, cars and other obstacles are diffi-

cult to see once the sun sets, and headlight glare can cause further problems. A study from the U.S. Department of Transportation found that 88% of drivers noticed LED and HID headlight glare.

While LED lights may not actually be brighter, their “cool” color temperature can make them appear so. Studies have found that blue and

white light tends to hit people’s eyes harder, especially at night.

In addition, human eyes do not adjust to changes in lighting very quickly, according to Pierre Paul Driving School in New York City. The older a person gets, the longer his or her eyes take to adjust to changes in lighting. In fact, it can take up to seven seconds

to recover from the blinding glare of headlights. That’s enough time to swerve off the road or potentially hit something. While glare can be problematic, drivers can take steps to make nighttime driving safer.

- Clean the windshield. Dirt and grime found on the windshield can refract light and make glare worse. Therefore, clean all windows and mirrors thoroughly, inside and out. - Repair scratches and cracks. Glare can be exacerbated by any imperfections in the windshield.

Repair cracks or scratches promptly.

- Get a vision and health check. Changes to vision can impact how glare affects certain individuals. Vitamin A deficiency can cause night blindness, also known as

How To Maintain An Older Vehicle

New cars have been costly for quite some time, but those costs have spiked considerably since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. That unprecedented rise may lead many motorists to wonder how they can get more mileage out of their existing vehicles. According to data from Kelley Blue Book and Cox Automotive, the average cost of a new car in September 2021 was just over $45,000. That marked a $3,000 increase from June 2021 and a $5,000 increase from the end of 2020.

Drivers who may not be able to afford the cost of a new vehicle can take the following steps to keep their existing cars running smoothly for years to come.

- Take care of the timing belt. Engines may get all the glory, but they cannot run smoothly without a fully functional timing belt, which helps to synchronize movements of various components. Owner’s manuals may note when to replace the timing belt, but they generally must be replaced every 60,000 to 105,000 miles.

Although replacement is required infrequently, drivers can ask their mechanics to keep an eye on their timing belts. During the early months of the pandemic, many people learned that infrequent driving can cause a timing belt to fail before it reaches the projected mile marker. Aging drivers should keep this fact in mind if they do not drive as much as they used to.

- Take care of the brakes and associated components. The experts at Popular Mechanics urge drivers of older vehicles to replace their brake fluid every two years. Popular Mechanics also advises drivers whose cars are more than seven years old to replace the rubber brake lines when major brake work is required.

- Pay attention to oil levels. The older engines get, the more oil they burn. For this reason, owners of older vehicles should check their oil levels more often than they would if their vehicles were brand new. These checks also provide a way to discover leaks before they lead to potentially significant issues.

- Don’t skip maintenance appointments. Even if you’re still driving less due to the pandemic, it’s best to keep up with maintenance on any car, especially if the car is older. Routine tune-ups and oil changes, which may need to become more frequent the older the vehicle gets, can keep cars running smoothly and protect the engine over the long haul.

The rising cost of new cars may compel people to keep their cars longer than they might have anticipated. A few simple maintenance measures may help to prolong the life of a vehicle.

nyctalopia. Eye shape changes, including a condition called keratoconus, can affect vision. Cataracts and diabetes can also impair vision. Visit a primary care physician as well as an eye doctor to check for conditions that can make night vision worse.

- Change your line of sight. Do not look directly into oncoming headlights. Rather, look slightly down and to the right side of the road so that you are not focusing on the beams.

- Get glare-resistant coatings on eyeglasses. Speak with an optician about eyeglasses with a coating that can reduce the amount of glare. VisionCenters.com says standard plastic lenses reflect around 8% of the light that reaches glasses, while high-

index lenses reflect up to 12% of available light. Anti-glare coating allows 99.5% of available light to reach the eyes, essentially eliminating glare. Those who don’t wear eyeglasses can purchase special anti-glare glasses to wear in high-glare conditions, such as when looking at computer and phone screens.

- Flip your rearview mirror to night mode, if you have this option. This setting will make it appear as though lights coming from behind are dimmer.

- Take breaks. When glare makes driving difficult, take a break to help your eyes recover.

These are some of the steps people may take when glare becomes problematic while driving at night.

Local Artists Plan Exhibition

Mulberry Art Studios, 1921 N. Mulberry St., Lancaster, will host a collaborative exhibition titled “Extreme Portraits” in October. Members of the public may meet the artists at a First Friday opening reception on Friday, Oct. 7, from 5 to 9 p.m.

The exhibition features portraits in various unusual and unique artistic styles from local artists Ryan Phillips, Douglas Anderson, Dustin Strickler, and Frederick D. Swarr.

Phillips, of Ephrata, draws inspiration from books, music, and films, as well as photographs from vacations.

Portraits of family and friends have become a favorite of his in the past few years. Acrylic, gouache, pencil, and oil paint, accompanied by a mixing of finishes and varnishes, are his preferred mediums.

Anderson is a multimedia artist who focuses on painting and printmaking using nature and people as his primary subjects. He uses various styles and often uses humor and social criticism as themes in his work. His work is in various public and private collections. He recently retired from teaching art, math, and special education.

The inspiration for Strickler’s artwork comes from his interest in human behavior, observing and blending the worlds of music, movies, sports, and notable Lititz personalities. His work includes pen and ink, markers, colored pencil, and acrylic paint. Within each piece of artwork, there are underlying meanings that tell a story.

Swarr has exhibited his art in diverse venues since 1969 and has paintings in numerous permanent collections. Swarr also donates his artwork to nonprofit organizations for fundraising. His style of painting has evolved into a combination of impressionism and expressionism. Acrylic has always been the prevalent paint on his pallet.

Mulberry Art Studios offers free parking in its private lot.

To learn more about “Extreme Portraits” or to make arrangements to visit during October outside of First Friday hours, contact Mulberry Art Studios at 717-295-1949 or email the gallery curator at Stephanie.MulberryArt @gmail.com.

Local Organist Wins Competition

The American Guild of Organists recently completed its annual national competition in organ improvisation. Robert Horton, organist and choirmaster at Holy Trinity Lutheran Church in Lancaster, is this year’s winner.

The competition began in the fall of 2021, with the initial application round. Competitors submitted a recording to the competition committee for review, and five semifinalists were selected to perform live at the American Guild annual convention in Seattle. Horton advanced to the final round, held at Seattle’s Epiphany Parish.

Competitors showcased their talents with improvised performances that included a melody by New York composer David Hurd and a poem by Seattle author ShinYu Pai. Horton was named the winner on July 6.

Horton joined the staff at Holy Trinity Lutheran Church in September 2014. He holds a master’s degree in music from Northwestern University and a Doctorate of Musical Arts in organ performance from the University of Kansas.

Registration for all of the 2023 youth programs will open immediately after the event, with early registration incentives through Thursday, Dec. 1. Families are encouraged to register early as programs fill up quickly.

In 2016, Servant Stage offered its first summer musical theater camp, “Godspell Jr.,” taking more than two dozen students through an entire production process, from auditioning to a full performance, in one week. The students then took the show “on tour” to local retirement communities to experience Servant Stage’s model of making theater accessible to those unable to go out to see shows.

Six years later, Servant Stage’s Youth Theatre program has experienced the most exponential growth of any area in the organization. In the last year, Servant Stage offered two winter youth productions and three summer theater camps - all filled to capacity with more than 300 total students involved and over 150

First Look Jr. is free and open to the public, and tickets can be reserved at www.servantstage.org or by calling 717-455-0255.

Servant Stage’s full 2023 MainStage season will be announced during the First Look Extravaganza, a live online event on Friday, Nov. 18, in conjunction with the ExtraGive. All performances are offered at pay-what-youwill prices as part of Servant Stage’s mission to make great performances accessible to everyone in the community.

Parallel to the company renaming is the introduction of a new series of logos. The main Schmitt Marine logo incorporates the “S” and “O” from original company names. The secondary brands provide a distinct relational connection to the primary mark. Subsequent phases of

the rebranding process will include a website redesign, updated literature and other marketing and sales collateral.

Schmitt Marine, 1001 Ranck Mill Road, Lancaster, manufactures a wide range of products for numerous original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) worldwide, many of which are completely customstyled and branded, as well as stock items for retail.
