Don’t Let Dehydration Sneak Up on You
Daniel Schuler, D.O. UPMC Family Medicine
Summer brings sunshine, travel, outdoor fun — and a higher risk of dehydration. It’s something many people brush off as a minor inconvenience, but dehydration can become a serious medical issue if it’s not addressed quickly. And often, the early signs are subtle.
Whether you’re working outside, playing sports, or simply sitting in the sun, your body loses water through sweat and evaporation. If you don’t replace those fluids regularly, dehydration can sneak up on you sometimes before you even feel thirsty.
Why Staying Hydrated Matters
Water makes up about 60% of the human body and plays a key role in everything from regulating temperature to cushioning joints to helping with digestion and brain function. When you’re dehydrated, your body can’t perform these basic functions efficiently. That’s when symptoms start to appear.
Children, older adults, and people with chronic conditions like diabetes or kidney disease are particularly vulnerable. People taking certain medications, especially diuretics or medications that affect fluid balance, should also take extra care in the heat. Even healthy adults can become dehydrated quickly if they’re phys -
ically active, drinking alcohol, or spending prolonged time in hot or humid conditions.
Symptoms of Dehydration
Mild dehydration can mimic other issues like fatigue or hunger. Watch for these early warning signs:
• Dry mouth or sticky saliva
• Thirst
• Headache
• Dizziness or lightheadedness
• Muscle cramps
• Dark yellow urine or reduced urination
• Feeling tired or irritable
As dehydration worsens, symptoms can escalate to include rapid heartbeat, rapid breathing, confusion, or even fainting. In infants or young children, look for dry diapers for several hours, crying without tears, or unusual fussiness.
Severe dehydration is a medical emergency and should be treated promptly, especially in young children, older adults, or people with existing health concerns.
Preventing Dehydration
The good news is that preventing dehydration is usually simple. Here are a few ways to stay safe and hydrated:
• Drink water regularly, not just when you’re thirsty. Thirst can be a delayed signal.
• Carry a refillable water bottle and sip throughout the day, especially if you’re out in the heat.
•Eat water-rich foods like cucumbers, watermelon, strawberries, and lettuce — they can help replenish fluids.
• Take breaks in cool or shaded areas during long outdoor activities.
• Avoid or limit alcohol, caffeinated drinks, and sugary sodas, which can contribute to fluid loss.
• Dress for the weather. Light, breathable clothing can help keep your body temperature stable.
If you’re caring for a child, remind them to take water breaks even if they don’t ask. Kids can get distracted and may not realize they’re thirsty. Older adults may not feel thirst as acutely and may need reminders to drink small amounts throughout the day. By making hydration part of your summer routine, you can help prevent everything from headaches and fatigue to more serious complications. If you ever feel unsure about your symptoms or those of someone you’re with, don’t hesitate to call your doctor or visit urgent care.
Enjoy the season and remember to keep your water bottle handy.

PennDOT, Safety Partners Host Bicycle Safety Event in Williamsport
Montoursville, PA
– The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT), Safe Kids PA-Lycoming County Partner, Geisinger Medical Center,
Pennsylvania State Police (PSP), and other safety partners held a bicycle rodeo today as part of the City of Williamsport’s Summer Camp Program.
The event, held for Summer Camp participants ages 6 to 12, took place at the Max M. Brown Memorial Park. Activities included bicycle helmet fittings, hand signal practice, safety activities, and a course where riders could practice their skills.
Seven lucky campers each won a bicycle donated by employees of Construction Specialties, Inc. of Muncy. Bicycle helmets, elbow and knee pads, and other safety materials were also distributed.
PennDOT reminds parents and caregivers that Pennsylvania law states anyone under the age of 12 must wear a helmet when riding a bicycle. This ap -
plies to anyone operating the bicycle, riding as a passenger, or riding in an attached restraining seat or trailer. PennDOT strongly recommends that all bicyclists wear helmets whenever they ride, regardless of their age.
Motorists are reminded to share the road. According to Pennsylvania law, motor vehicles must allow at least four feet of space when overtaking a bicycle and travel at a safe speed. It is the motorist’s responsibility to provide the distance, not the cyclist.
For more information on bicycle safety, visit www. penndot.pa.gov/safety or safekids.org.

Shapiro Administration Helps Veterans Locate Lost Paperwork Needed to Apply for Military Benefits
Veterans needing assistance locating lost military documents can call DMVA toll-free at 1-800-547-2838; or visit the new Lickdale Veterans’ Outreach Center in Jonestown
Annville, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Military and Veterans Affairs (DMVA) encourages veterans who need assistance with locating their lost DD Form 214 (DD-214) and other military documents to contact the DMVA so
they can get credit for time served and receive veteran benefits they have earned.
The DD-214 is a Department of Defense document issued upon a servicemember’s retirement, separation, or discharge from active duty in the U.S. Armed Forces. It contains information needed to verify military service for benefits, retirement, employment, and membership in veterans’ organizations. Without this
key document, there could be significant delays when a veteran seeks benefits earned through their military service.
“Helping veterans receive the benefits they earned from serving this nation is a priority for DMVA, and that always starts with having the right paperwork to prove military service,” said Keith Graham, executive director of Veterans Affairs. “We invite veterans to reach out if they need help. Veterans are even
welcome to stop by our new Lickdale Veterans’ Outreach Center in Jonestown for walk-in service. Our team of accredited veteran service officers is standing-by ready to assist.”
The DMVA can also assist with locating the DD-215, which is used to correct errors or make additions to a DD-214, helping to assure that veterans have accurate discharge documentation.
Over the past fiscal year, the DMVA has responded to more
than 2,300 requests, including 400 phone calls, for assistance with finding military records.
The easiest way to manage military documents and avoid having to frantically search for them is to make sure they are filed in a safe place immediately upon leaving the military.
Anyone needing assistance from the DMVA to locate their DD-214/215, or other military documentation, can call toll-free 1-800547-2838, e-mail
RA-REQ@pa.gov, or stop by the Lickdale Veterans’ Outreach Center at 40 Fisher Ave., Jonestown, PA 17038. More information about locating military documents can be found by visiting the Records Request Program. Another way to stay in touch is for veterans, family members and people who work with veterans to sign up for the DMVA’s Veterans Registry by visiting www.register.dmva. pa.gov.
Senate Approves Yaw Bill to Protect Consumers’ Energy Choices
HARRISBURG – A bill to ensure Pennsylvania residents have choices when it comes to fuel availability was approved today with bipartisan support from the state Senate, according to Sen. Gene Yaw (R-23), sponsor of the measure.
Senate Bill 311, known as “Energy Choice,” would limit municipal entities from banning a specific type of fuel source for appliances and heating homes or businesses. The language is fuel-neutral and is not specific to any one energy source.
“It’s simply about consumer choice and keeping energy costs
low,” Yaw said. “When municipal governments start picking winners and losers, then we have a serious problem.
Pennsylvania residents have a myriad of energy options to choose from and we should keep it that way.”
Yaw referenced Berkeley, CA, which was the first city in the nation to ban natural gas hookups in new construction. The 2019 move was an effort to keep buildings and homes from using fossil fuels.
“Many of my constituents still use wood to heat their homes,” Yaw continued. “Are we going to stop them next?” Currently, 26 states
have enacted energy choice legislation. Yaw noted the bill is supported by the Pennsylvania Chamber of Business and Industry, the Manufacturer and Business Association and the Energy Association of Pennsylvania, which consists of natural gas and electric utilities.
The bill now moves to the House of Representatives for consideration.
For more state-related news and information, constituents can visit Senator Yaw’s website at www.SenatorGeneYaw.com or follow him on Facebook and X @SenatorGeneYaw.
Hughesville Volunteer Fire Company Receives
HUGHESVILLE,
Pa., July 10 — The Hughesville Volunteer Fire Company is proud to announce the receipt of a $16,000 grant through the Energy Transfer First Responder Grant Program. This generous funding was used to purchase a stateof-the-art Genesis Combination Tool, a
vital addition to the department’s rescue equipment inventory.
The Genesis Combination Tool is a hydraulic rescue tool designed for quick and efficient extrication in vehicle crashes and other emergency situations. It combines cutting and spreading functions
into a single device, saving valuable time during life-saving operations and allowing firefighters to respond more effectively in high-stress rescue scenarios.
“This new tool is a game-changer for our department,” said a representative of the Hughesville Volunteer Fire Company. “When seconds count, having reliable, modern equipment can mean the difference between life and death. We’re incredibly grateful to Energy Transder for making this possible through the First Responder Grant Program.”
The Energy Trans fer First Responder Grant Program provides funding to first responder organizations that serve the communities where
the company operates. Their support ensures that local fire departments, EMS agencies, and law enforcement have the resources necessary to protect and serve.
The Hughesville Volunteer Fire Company remains committed to providing high-quality emergency response services to the community and continuously seeks ways to improve training, equipment, and operational readiness.
The addition of the Genesis Combina -
tion Tool directly supports this mission and enhances the safety of both the responders and the people they serve.
“We’re honored to partner with companies like Energy Transfer who understands the
needs of rural fire departments and the challenges we face. This grant allows us to continue improving our capabilities without placing additional financial strain on our local community”, the department added.
Enjoy National Ice Cream Month in July!
Did You Know?
The Scoop on Sundaes
According to the Farmers’ Almanac, Blue Laws (religious laws restricting activities considered sinful) banned the sale of sodas on Sundays in the U.S. during the late 1800s. Pharmacists who were benefitting from selling popular ice cream sodas at their counters decided to replace the soda with chocolate syrup, and the ice cream “Sunday” was born. The name was eventually changed to “sundae,” eliminating any connection to the Sabbath.
Think Outside the Cone:
6 Tasty Tricks to Mix Up Your Ice Cream Routine
1. Lightly butter flour tortillas and sprinkle them with cinnamon and sugar. Drape the tortillas over the rungs of the shelves in an oven, placing a cookie sheet underneath to catch any drips. Bake at 300 F until just crisp. Fill with your favorite ice cream for some frozen dessert tacos.
2. Create your own ice cream sandwiches from any firm cookies or dessert bars you have on hand. For example, cut two thin slices of fudge
brownies. Spread softened ice cream in a complementary flavor, such as peanut butter or black cherry vanilla, in between the brownie sandwich pieces. Freeze to firm everything up and make it easier to eat.
3. Fried ice cream pairs the seemingly incompatible frozen dessert with heat. Freeze scoops of ice cream until they are solid, dip them in an egg wash and coat with crushed cookie crumbs. You can then refreeze the
finished ice cream balls and have them set to fry in time for dessert.
4. Ice cream and frozen waffles make a quick dessert in a pinch. Raid the freezer for the ingredients, toast the waffles and then sandwich with ice cream. Top with fresh fruit and whipped cream, if desired.
5. Spoon your favorite cookie dough into a muffin tin and mold the dough so it lines the individual cups of the tin. Bake
until firm and let cool. Use the cookie cups to make little ice cream sundae holders for parties. Their diminutive size makes them ideal for kids.
6. Whip up your own ice cream cake. Place a thin layer of any flavor cake on the bottom of a dish or pan that can be placed into the freezer. Scoop softened ice cream on top, then continue to layer as desired, finishing with ice cream as the final layer. Let freeze several hours until firmed up, then enjoy.

Fair attendees enjoy fan favorites, new additions at Lycoming Fair
By MATTHEW COURTER mcourter@sungazette. com
Each summer, the action of the demolition derby and the excitement of the rodeo, along with the allure of a roller coaster ride and winning that perfect stuffy or goldfish draws in thousands to the Lycoming County Fair in Hughesville. But a highlight for many are those tasty treats that can only be found as the dog days of summer blanket the area.
For Brianna Walters Barton, cactus taters are the big draw, a notion seconded by her mother,
Amanda Walters, both of Jersey Shore, who added ice cream into the mix.
“We just got here, so we haven’t had the chance to check out all the food yet,” said David Irish.
Hot dogs are always a fair favorite. His wife Jenna’s tastebuds lead her straight to the funnel cake stand and 5-year-old Bella chills out with an ice cream cone.
A funnel cake is also a sure bet for Emily Carmer, of Unityville, while 8-year-old Matthew is reaching for the French fries, as 4-year-old Owen hopes to seek out a peanut butter sandwich.
Their dad, Alex, stays hydrated with a cool glass of lemonade.
“I always look forward to orangeade,” said Mandie Leonard, of Jersey Shore, offering another summertime favorite to beat the heat.
Mixed in with the usuals were some unique fair mainstays.
“My favorite fair foods are candy apples and gyros from John the Greek,” said Jenny Kozak, of Montoursville, whose husband, Dan, crowned chocolate covered bacon among his fair go-tos. Taking a cue from her
dad, 10-year-old Amelia said her favorite is chocolate covered bananas, as siblings Lucas, 4, and Macy, 6, both named cotton candy as their favorites, with Lucas favoring blueberry, while pink was the choice for Macy.
“We usually come at least two nights, because there’s so much for the kids,” Dan said, adding that one night is usually for food and checking out the 4-H exhibits, with a second night devoted to games and rides.
This fair marks the inaugural year for a number of food vendors, including Crumbl Cookie.
“Crumbl started approving food trucks a couple months ago, so our bosses just kind of jumped on it and thought it would be a really good idea,” Savanna Grove, of Williamsport, said.
“We’re both locals, so I remember coming to this fair as a kid,” she added. The crowds have been overwhelmingly positive to the newcomers.
“Not a lot of people make it into Williamsport, but a lot of people come from all around to the fair, so it’s good to get that exposure, and if they ever travel into Williamsport, they’re like, ‘I remember having Crumbl Cookie at the fair. We should go into the store,’ and they experience a whole different menu, since it changes every week,” said Tara Spaulding, also of Williamsport.
As for their personal favorites, pret-
zels and Taco Bills are the pick for Grove.
“They’re phenomenal,” she said.
“I go with the classic funnel cakes, but I like to try different vendors,” Spaulding said.
“Today, I had a baked potato, and last night, I had a quesadilla from Eat & Run, so I try to do something different each night,” she said, adding that she always enjoys funnel cakes because, “it’s just a classic fair food.” The borough’s own food
From sweet treats to savory sausages, traditional fair fare like funnel cakes and fries to new additions like the Grab ‘n’ Growl food truck, the assortment of goodies found at the Lycoming County Fair surely includes something for everyone. The event continues through Saturday at the Hughesville fairgrounds

truck, Grab n’ Growl, also marks its debut among this year’s festivities.
“Hughesville is our hometown, so we decided to try it out. We’ve been in the food truck industry for about three years now, so we just decided it would be a fun thing to do,” said Jessica Holmes, who owns and operates the truck along with her husband, Ryan.
“Turnout has been good so far. The first two days were a little slower, which is OK, as we ease right into it. And then today, it’s been busy. So we’re really grateful,” she said.
As for her treasured treat, Jessica goes for the funnel cake, while Ryan looks forward to indulging in a gyro.
At the dessert stand operated by Sunshine Shows, while funnel cakes reign supreme, several other deep-fried confections are hard hitters, according to Amanda Benner, manager for the company.
“We do deep fried Oreos, and alongside that, I would say deep fried cheesecake. We take a whole slice of regular cheesecake, and then we’ll throw it into a batter and deep fry it,” she explained.
And, while the deepfried cheesecake, itself, is not new, a spin to the classic offers longtime fans a fresh taste.
“This year, we started putting toppings on. We do strawberry, cherry, apple, chocolate, drizzle, caramel, powdered sugar and cinnamon sugar, all those good, high sugar items,” Benner, of Middleburg, said.
How many funnel cakes they sell at the fair each year is a hard number to pin down and dependent on the weather and attendance, but Benner said they go through “packs of plates.”
And, while Benner agrees Sunshine Show’s sugary sweets are “delicious,” she favors fresh cut fries.
“I also like the stuffed pretzels. They have a ham and cheese stuffed pretzel that’s really good,” she said.
