“The title is ‘A Christmas Overture,’” noted Laudermilch. “It contains a lot of carols of the season, but (offers) an English composer’s perspective on American carols, and it’s a spectacular opener.”

Laudermilch has arranged for soloists to join the band for the performance. West Chester University graduate Sondra Cattich will return to the pops as guest vocalist. “She has the most beautiful alto coloratura voice,” said Laudermilch, who added that Cattich will sing “It’s a Holiday Season” and “Christmas on Broadway,” which is a medley including “It’s Beginning to Look A Lot Like Christmas,” “March of the Toys,” “My Favorite Things,” and more.

“They like old music in a new suit of clothes.” Fortunately for Laudermilch, there are many pieces of seasonal music to fill the pops program. “There are so many wonderful new arrangements of the old favorites, it’s hard to choose,” he mused.

To kick off the event,

Members and supporters of the Tanzania Mission Committee of St. Peter’s Lutheran Church present an annual cookie walk fundraiser. This year’s event - the 12th annual - will be held on Saturday, Dec. 8.

The Tanzania Mission Committee of St. Peter’s Lutheran Church will host its 12th annual cookie walk on Saturday, Dec. 8.

Community members are encouraged to arrive early for the best selection.

The cookie walk will offer customers a choice of

two container sizes to fill with homemade holiday cookies donated by the church’s congregation. Separate fees have been set for the two sizes.

Proceeds from this year’s event will benefit global missions. The committee is grateful for the community’s support of the cookie walk over the years.

inception, this project has been steered by an all-volunteer group of Lancaster countians,â€? said Kramer, who added that the project has been completely funded by private donations. “The mission (of this park) is to recognize and pay tribute to the valor of (all) Lancaster Countians who ever wore a United States armed forces uniform and swore to support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic,â€? said Kramer. He emphasized the commitment each veteran makes by recalling the remarks of Ephrata native William “Tomâ€? Hobbins, a retired United States four-star general and the highest ranking officer to emerge from Lancaster County. “When we think of honoring our veterans, we should always recall that the commitment they made requires them to sign a blank check to the American people ‌ payable with their lives,â€? quoted Kramer.

Kramer noted that one intention of the park is to give the

32,000 veterans currently living in Lancaster County a place of peace, repose, and reflection, but he added that it will also be a place to educate young people. “The logo (of the park) is a silhouette of a child saluting the stars and the stripes,� said Kramer. “It’s an enduring graphic statement that it is the future that is the most important.�

Gesturing to the Bonfield students, Kramer said, “Today, we are surrounded by the future ... and they are invited to take part (today) to thank them for their loyalty and to mark their essential part in the ongoing saga of American freedom.� Kramer then asked the gathering to give the children of Bonfield a hand. “I charge you now with taking a giant step in the history of the park,� he said as the students who were holding shovels moved the first pieces of earth in the creation of the new place of honor.

More information about the park may be found by visiting www.vetshonorparklanco.org.

Honor Park from pg 1 today takes hold as a concrete, tangible testimony to dedication, perseverance, generosity, and American grit.�

Sinkovitz lauded the dedication of the John R. Bonfield Elementary School students, saying, “These fifth- and sixth-graders have been some of our biggest supporters since they were in kindergarten, and we thank them for their loyalty and participation.� The master of ceremonies introduced others, some of whom

were present, who had made the celebration possible, mentioning Wayne Siegrist, who donated the land on which the park will be built in honor of his father, Raymond Siegrist, who was a World War II veteran.

Other attendees who were recognized included Knouse, who with his family has given time, talents, and resources to the endeavor, and former United States Army officer Robert Kornman, designer of the park, construction coordinator, landscape architect, and volunteer.

Sinkovitz then introduced Kramer, the keynote speaker, who spoke of Robert Weaver, a United States Navy veteran of the Vietnam era, who had a dream of a memorial park dedicated to honor the sacrifices of Lancaster County’s military veterans. “Today, your dream takes another step toward coming true,� said Kramer, who noted that the support of Sam Lombardo and his wife were also essential to the project. “From its

chance to experience things and get their hands dirty,” said Long, who has charged students with designing the interior starting with concepts and moving to 2-D and 3-D drawings. “We want them to see the process from the beginning to end. (The students) are making all the decisions.” A former LCCS student who is now an employee of a Lancasterbased producer of tiny houses located nearby is acting as a consultant on the project.

Student Sarah Bustillo has been involved in laying out the floorplan for the tiny home, learning to use a 3-D model maker and receiving a crash course in the importance of measuring. “We have learned there are multiple ways to use space,” said Bustillo, who noted that steps can also be storage units and counters can flip up to provide more living space. “You have to be creative.”

Student Caleb Heck also collaborated on the layout process.

“I thought the layout aspect would be easy, but after (a short time), I realized it is a meticulous process,” he noted.

“What drew me to the project is that we want to teach critical thinking,” explained Long. “How do we create a space that’s efficient (and functional)? Thinking through that process has been awesome.” Long described how one student imagined a coffee table that became a kitchen table and that had storage inside.

When the student brought the idea to Long, he said, “Draw it out, and we can build it.”

Work on the bus began on Oct. 10, and student Seth

Stoltzfus was among those preparing the bus for conversion, cutting bolts to remove seats and completing the arduous process of extricating the wheelchair lift.

“The wheelchair lift was bulky and heavy, and we had to look at (removing it) from a different angle,” said Stoltzfus. “We had to think outside the box.”

LCCS head of school Peter Hansen pointed out that the tiny house project fits with the mission of the school. “This project is about more than making money,” he noted. “It’s about serving the greater good and how do we as a school help that.”

Overall learning goals for the project should reach far beyond the specifics of layout or how to remove bus seats, according to Long. “Our students can experience entrepreneurship by giving them experiences while teaching them principles,” said Long. “We teach basic business principles in a way where they do the process, (because) teaching students to think and solve problems is a big part of what we do.”

The project is also designed to teach collaboration skills and business ownership functions.

“They are learning to be leaders,” said Long. “We give them the basic skills to run a business (by doing it), and they take risks, but they are using real money, so ideas must be feasible,” Long said.

LCCS is governed by a board of directors and managed by the head of school and administrative team. The school offers a Christ-centered and interdenominational curriculum for area children in prekindergarten through 12th grade.

Coleman Chapel from pg 1 and the congregation has initiated creative fundraising activities to help meet financial needs. Among these are the annual chicken barbecue and auction, seasonal candy sales, and the current CMC memorial brick program, which is open to the community.

The memorial brick program is part of CMC’s plan to establish a memorial walkway, which will be part of a garden.

Memorial bricks may be placed

with a personal message. The church has planned a Memorial Day 2019 dedication program to kick off the memorial garden remembrances. Individuals who wish to place a memorial brick may contact CMC at 717-626-6933 or visit www.colemanchapel.org.

Bagpipers played “Happy Birthday” for Flt. Lt. Richard E. Boyd (second from left) at a ceremony dedicating the newly renamed RAF Lounge at the Bulls Head Pub at the General Sutter Inn in Lititz. Attendees included (from left) RAF Wing Commander Neville Clayton and Silvia and Tim Trimble. The RAF Lounge is dedicated to Boyd.

A ceremony was held on Nov. 17 to dedicate the newly renamed RAF Lounge at the Bulls Head Pub in the General Sutter Hotel in Lititz. The new name recognizes the 100th anniversary of the British flying service.

The recent ceremony honored the achievements of Flt. Lt. Richard E. Boyd, to whom the RAF Lounge is dedicated, and also celebrated Boyd’s 97th birthday. Boyd resides in Lancaster and was in attendance at the ceremony.

In the early days of World War

II, Boyd crossed the Atlantic for advanced flight training in the U.S. On completion, he received a Royal Air Force (RAF) commission and was selected to remain in the U.S. to train American pilots. He earned both RAF and USAAF wings. Returning to Britain in 1943, he flew 33 combat missions piloting the famed AVRO Lancaster bomber and was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross (DFC) for his gallantry in combat. Following his service, Boyd worked in management for several international airlines, eventually moving to the U.S.

and becoming a U.S. citizen. He is still active in aviation circles.

The space presently known as the RAF Lounge was added to the Bulls Head in 2014. It now features items of RAF memorabilia, which were donated by Lancaster businessman Timothy Trimble, a friend of Boyd and an aviator himself.

Guests who joined Boyd and his family and friends at the event included Lititz Mayor Tim Snyder and RAF Wing Commander Neville Clayton, who is attached to the British Embassy in Washington, D.C.

Haunted Lantern Tour To Return With “Mortality Within” in”

By Chelsea Peifer

Sara Mimnall and Rebecca Wright chose the theme of “Mortality Within” for Columbia’s Haunted Lantern Tour this year because they wanted to introduce people to a not-often-talked-about aspect of the rivertown’s history. The theme will focus on the disease and poverty that struck Columbia and other communities in earlier days, discussing the presence of pesthouses and sanitariums and how much things have changed. “It shows how people suffered more than they had to because they didn’t have the

like we do now,” noted Mimnall.

“It will also touch on the Great Depression and how the lack of food (and resources) can change people,” Wright added. Popular characters from past years will also reappear, Wright said, such as William Campbell, a local trapper who died from rabies and is buried in Columbia’s historic Mount Bethel Cemetery. History abounds in the cemetery and the town, and according to Mimnall and Wright, while spooky elements are intertwined on the tour, history is indeed the emphasis.

The hourlong guided tours will take place on Friday and Saturday

John’s Evangelical Lutheran Church, 23 S. Sixth St., Columbia.

Tours will step off every half hour beginning at 6:30 p.m., with the last tour starting at 9:30 p.m. Participants will follow guides to Locust Street and through a loop in the Mount Bethel Cemetery before returning to the church.

To purchase tickets, interested individuals may call 717-517-2442.

A specific tour time will be designated when tickets are reserved. Organizers strongly encourage people to order tickets in advance. A limited number of tickets may be available on the night of the tours but are not

Tabor Receives Reaccreditation Tabor Community Services recently achieved national reaccreditation through the Council on Accreditation (COA) for the fifth consecutive time. Organizations pursue accreditation to demonstrate the implementation of best practice standards in the field of human services. COA evaluated all aspects of Tabor’s programs, services, management, and administration. Tabor has been accredited since 1998.

COA accreditation is an objective, independent validation of an agency’s performance. The process involves a detailed review and analysis of an organization’s administration, management, and service delivery functions as compared to international standards of best practice. The standards driving accreditation are designed to ensure that services are well-coordinated, culturally competent, evidencebased, outcomes-oriented, and provided by a skilled and supported workforce.

To achieve COA reaccreditation, Tabor first provided written evidence of compliance with the COA standards. After that, a group of specially trained volunteer peer reviewers confirmed adherence to these standards

during a series of on-site interviews with trustees, staff, and clients. Based on their findings, COA’s volunteer-based Accreditation Commission voted that Tabor Community Services had successfully met the criteria for reaccreditation.

For the past 50 years, Tabor has been helping clients learn how to meet their housing and financial challenges, rebuild their lives, and contribute to the strength of the Lancaster community in the process.

Tabor’s comprehensive array of programs and services include rapid re-housing for those experiencing homelessness, rental counseling to prevent homelessness, transitioning sheltered persons to permanent housing, supportive housing, budget counseling, financial literacy education, consumer credit counseling, firsttime home-buyer counseling, default mortgage counseling, counseling to achieve financial self-sufficiency, and matched savings accounts to help lowincome families save for purchasing assets such as a home or education.

In the following 34 years, Eric, now 97, and his late wife, Dorothy, moved to Calvary Homes retirement community, where he continued his service in the areas of board chair, committee leadership, and pulpit supply, while also serving various interim pastoral roles in the northeast.

children that CASA volunteers advocate for have been abused or neglected and placed into the foster care system. CASA volunteers work to help ensure a safe and permanent home for the child as quickly as possible.

The process to become a CASA volunteer advocate is multistep and includes an interview, training and shadowing. This process equips CASA volunteer advocates to work alongside youths who are in foster care.

According to the organization, older youths who are served by a CASA are more likely to set goals for their future and have clear ideas about how to achieve them and are less likely to be homeless, in trouble, or in jail.

CASA will hold a Tuesday, Dec. 18, information session from noon to 1 p.m. at Paul Davis Restoration, 1816 Olde Homestead Lane, Lancaster, for its winter 2019 training class beginning in February. CASA information sessions are an hourlong introduction and overview of the role of a CASA volunteer advocate. Attending an information session is a required first step in applying to the program.

planning, implementing and evaluating projects that make the community a great place to grow old.

The catalyst for Lancaster’s journey to learn about the WHO’s Age-Friendly initiative is the Lancaster Area Senior Services (LASS), an association of 19 nonprofit retirement communities that provide homes and services for more than 13,100 Lancaster residents and employ more than 8,200 people.

LASS hired consultant Chris Kennedy to manage the project of introducing the program to Lancaster. Kennedy has been engaged with projects involving the AgeFriendly program since 2007.

Over the past six months, LASS has made presentations and convened conversations with multiple organizations and key stakeholders that directly or indirectly deal with the quality of living in Lancaster. As this educational process unfolded, a number of sparks were ignited.

Lancaster’s director for countywide planning, Scott Standish, confirmed that the Age-Friendly principles are aligned with the county’s comprehensive plan under development, places 2040.

Partnering with Lancaster City Council took the next step toward receiving the World Health Organization’s (WHO) designation as an AgeFriendly City by unanimously approving a resolution supporting the city’s application to join the Global Network of AgeFriendly Cities and Communties (GNAFCC.) The seeds for the GNAFCC were planted in 2007 when WHO published “A Guide to AgeFriendly Cities.� This study suggests eight areas that support an active and healthy environment

for all ages; these include housing, transportation and health services, civic participation, employment, respect and social inclusion. From the 33 cities initially involved in the study, the network has now grown to 705 cities and communities in 39 countries.

Unlike many designations that require certain milestones to first be achieved, the Age-Friendly designation is aspirational. It signifies the municipality’s intention to become more age-friendly by embarking on a five-year cycle of

The county board of commissioners supported the concept of the Age-Friendly program at its July 10 work session.

Lancaster County Office of Aging’s executive director, Lon Wible, recommended that the commissioners consider applying for designation as an Age-Friendly County after Millersville University completes its environmental scan.

Lancaster Downtowners and Landis Communities committed to help the City of Lancaster launch its five-year Cycle of AgeFriendly Continual Improvement.

Presented by councilman Ismail Smith-Wade-El, the Lancaster City Council unanimously endorsed applying for Age-Friendly designation at its Oct. 9 meeting. Matt Johnson, the mayor’s chief of staff, will be coordinating the city’s application through AARP, WHO’s U.S. affiliate.

Lancaster Mennonite High School (LMHS) students were recently challenged to go 48 hours without using their smartphones or social media accounts.

Jimm and Kaylene Derksen, chapel speakers for LMS’s Commitment Week from Oct. 16 to 19, focused on the theme “The Good, the Bad, the Ugly, and the Beautiful” over four different sessions. They highlighted the kinds of disconnection from God and other people that one can experience, sometimes resulting from smartphone addiction.

The Derksens are both certified soul care providers and also staff members at Eastern Mennonite Missions (EMM). Jimm is a personnel placement coach and Kaylene is the development director.

One of EMM’s three core values is well-being. EMM seeks to improve the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being of its workers and those whom they serve around the world, as well as stakeholders.

Lancaster Mennonite School students are among those whose wellbeing EMM seeks to enhance.

Students were encouraged to fill their smartphone voids by journaling about what they noticed. One student observed a woman sitting on a bench next to her making a scarf. The student was inspired to make a scarf as a

In her own way, not being on her phone helped her enter into creativity.

Other students shared about how they had a greater sense of respect and appreciation for people around them as a result of disconnecting from their smartphones. A common observation among the students and staff members who took on the challenge was that they had more time due to not using their smartphones or social media accounts.

The goal was not just to disconnect from technology, but to also use the time as an opportunity for

students to reconnect with their communities. Focusing on how disconnection from others can eventually lead to dehumanization, the Derksens addressed human rights crises in places like the Democratic Republic of Congo, Myanmar, and Syria.

As the 550 students exited the auditorium after the last session, teachers stood at the doorways with bowls of chocolate truffles.

Each student was handed a truffle and sent off with the statement “You are a gift.”

Lancaster Mennonite School holds chapel services four times per week at its Lancaster Campus.

Lancaster Farmland Trust celebrated its 30th anniversary at its annual dinner on Oct. 23. More than 230 friends, farmers and supporters attended to honor three decades of land preservation in Lancaster County. The event, which was held at the Eden Resort and Suites, raised $150,000 for farmland preservation in Lancaster County.

Event attendees heard from Pennsylvania Secretary of Agriculture Russell Redding about the value of farmland and the partnership that has been forged between county government and Lancaster Farmland Trust to save farmland. Redding and state Rep. Keith Greiner presented citations to Lancaster Farmland Trust in recognition of 30 years of farmland preservation.

The highlight of the evening was Lancaster Farmland Trust’s annual Acres for Auction at which

attendees entered “bids” to preserve a farm. During this year’s successful “auction,” the organization raised enough money to preserve a 155-acre farm in West Cocalico Township.

In the past year, Lancaster Farmland Trust preserved 10 farms. Five of those farm families were on hand to accept a token of appreciation for their commitment to farmland preservation.

During the evening’s festivities, the Trust honored its other contributors and volunteers.

The Amos Funk Spirit of Cooperation Award was presented to the Ressler Mill Foundation for its support of farmland preservation in the Mill Creek watershed.

The Benefactor of the Year Award was awarded to G. Donald and Marilyn Hess for their leadership support of the Trust’s current and future programs.

Scouts Will Host Peace Light The Peace Light will be received at an arrival ceremony on Wednesday, Dec. 5, at 2 p.m. at the office of the Boy Scouts of America’s Pennsylvania Dutch Council, located at 630 Janet Ave., Suite B-114, Lancaster.

The Peace Light will be available from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on weekdays from Thursday, Dec. 6, through Friday, Dec. 21, at the council office. Attendees are encouraged to bring an oil lamp or an enclosed candle to take it with them.

For more than 1,000 years, a flame has been continuously lit in the Grotto of the Nativity in Bethlehem, Israel. As has been an annual tradition for the last 33 years, a Scout from Austria is chosen to light two blast-proof miner’s lamps from the grotto flame. The lamps are then carried by jet from Tel Aviv, Israel, to Vienna, Austria. There the Peace Light is distributed at a

service of dedication to delegations from across Europe, and these delegations take the light back to their own countries, along with a message of peace.

Since 2004, the miner’s lamps containing the Peace Light have been flown from Vienna to New York City. Boy Scout leaders from the U.S. light their lanterns from the miner’s lamps in New York and spread out across the U.S. and Canada to share the Peace Light. This is the first year that the Pennsylvania Dutch Council will host the Peace Light.

The Peace Light is a physical reminder of the reason for the Christmas season.

The Pennsylvania Dutch Council serves nearly 5,500 youths in a variety of programs in Lancaster and Lebanon counties. For more information, readers may call 717-553-4200 or visit www.peacelight.org or www.padutchbsa.org.

The Christiana Freight Station will hold open house events on Dec. 8 and 9, as well as Jan. 6, 2019. The Lancaster Chapter National Railway Historical Society will have model trains on display, and the restored caboose will be open for viewing.

Commission Will Present Podcast The Lancaster County Planning Commission will host a podcast titled “Dangerous by Design” on Friday, Dec. 7, from 10:30 to 11:30 a.m. The podcast will be shown in Conference Room 102 in the Lancaster Government Building, 15 N. Queen St., Lancaster.

The group will listen to the recorded podcast, while following along with the accompanying PDF of the slides from the original presentation. In the presentation, Emiko Atherton, director of the National Complete Streets Coalition, discussed findings and implications from the recently released “Dangerous by Design 2016” report.

Attendees learned which areas of the country are leading in pedestrian safety, what impacts roadway design has on vulnerable populations, and what steps communities can take to work toward implementing a Complete Streets design approach. For more information, readers may contact 717-299-8333 or lcpceducation@co.lancaster.pa.us.
