Our experienced agents are here to help. WE HAVE THE BEST:
LOCAL EXPERTISE We are The Hideout Experts. It’s important to hire an agent who knows the community.
LOCATION Our office is in a high traffic location for walk-in customers, fully staffed 7 days a week.
MARKETING We spend a lot of money marketing your home and the community to match buyers and sellers.
AGENTS Our agents are full-time experienced agents with expertise in the community.
COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT It’s important to give back to the people who support our business and beyond.
Let's welcome spring with open arms. March was the usual, coming in like a lion and leaving like a lamb.
I want to give a big shout-out to the Ski Hill Team. They worked their tails off and had some cooperation from mother nature. As usual, the Ski Hill Team patiently waited for the temperature to drop so that they could man the snow guns and groomer. A job well done. Our members and guests definitely took advantage of the hard work done by the team.
Our Maintenance Team once again stood tall when the weather turned. Our roads and parking lots were cleared to perfection. They have the tools and the talent.
I want to thank Larry Frotten and the POA Managers for their continued success in keeping The Hideout the premier community in NEPA. Keeping within the budget is sometimes very difficult, and there are many obstacles to overcome when working with as many budgeted items as we have. Supplies, equipment, and so on. Their forwardthinking and saving for a rainy day help keep our costs down, even when we have to replace something that unexpectedly fails. Not many businesses prepare for an unbudgeted item to be replaced.
We are actively looking for members to run for the Board of Directors. There will be two seats available in the upcoming election. Our Nominating Committee is hard at work. The Election rules and regulations are a living document that
changes with the times. In the last few years, that committee has sponsored several functions, so our members can meet and speak to the candidates. There is the Meet the Candidates Meeting and, my favorite, the Ice Cream Social. These and other functions are a great way for our members to put a face to the name and discuss any concerns they might have. If anyone is interested in running for the Board of Directors, please contact the POA office.
The Board of Directors encourages our members to attend any Board Workshop and Meeting. We always want to hear the concerns that members might have. We also encourage our members to join any of our many committees. Life experiences can bring great things to the table. As the Board of Directors, we do not claim to be the know-all and be-all. We depend on our committees and staff, and we rely on our managers' hands-on approach and our committees' recommendations.
There is no update on our Cellular tower. The major suppliers are still holding back on any new projects. I will keep the members informed of any changes.
As always, I ask that we be kind to the staff while in the performance of their jobs. Please be kind to one another. A little kindness goes a long way. ■

My February message cautioned that we should stay prepared for late winter storms in the month of March. As usual, our Maintenance staff was fully prepared for the storms that we experienced last month. We had adequate material to keep our icy road conditions in check, and we had the necessary equipment to maintain our roadways as they became snow-covered.
Our Ski Hill enjoyed a very successful season. We have new management at the Hill, and they performed exceptionally, using every opportunity to make snow when nature provided the necessary conditions. This year we saw many new faces at the Hill and saw a new energy with those using the facility. Many Members have let us know that they thoroughly enjoyed the Hill this year. We are grateful to all the Members who complimented our Ski Hill staff. The teamwork between the Ski Hill staff and our other departments was an example of how The Hideout team comes together to assist each other.
We have previously reminded our Members of our commitment to address the issue of speeding vehicles in The Hideout. Our Public Safety officers have been re-trained in the operation of radar units. Speeding vehicles are a disaster waiting to happen, and it will not be tolerated on our roadways. Our Members walk around the Lake and are exposed to danger from speeding vehicles during their walks. Our staff is constantly
working on our roadways, and they are also exposed to this danger. The Board has recently approved revisions to speeding and stop sign violations. Please take the time to review the updated Amenity Fee Guide, which will be published in The Hideabout and on The Hideout website. We remind you that It is the Member’s responsibility to advise their Guest(s) of all Hideout Rules and Regulations.
For those of us who have the great pleasure of having four-legged friends, we ask you to be kind to your neighbors and pick up after your pets. Many times our staff has to spend time cleaning up pet waste. This is a health hazard, and failing to clean up after pets is counterproductive in our efforts to keep The Hideout as clean as we can.
We look forward to opening our amenities that were closed over the Winter. We hope you will get the chance to visit our new Tiki Bar, scheduled to open in May. We also invite you to visit the Nubia Malkin Art Center when renovations are completed.
The sun seems to be shining more and more, which indicates that Spring is finally here! We hope you enjoy spending time with your family and friends during the holiday season.

The Clubhouse had it's annual shutdown in March, and with the help of our hardworking Maintenance staff, we were able to get the kitchen, server station, and hallway repainted. They added new lighting to the kitchen, cleaned and sealed floors, and did a deep clean of our Clubhouse. We are also working with Maintenance to replace the bathroom stalls and update the landscaping. Thank you so much to Dennis and his staff for all their hard work.
April, we have a lot of good
entertainment here at the Pub, DJ Billy, Sara LaBarbera, Lighten up, Tom Riccobono, and Trivia every other Thursday with DJ Billy. Sunday night is build-your-own burger night, $12, including a domestic draft beer. Join us for Darts and Wing Night on Mondays starting at 7 p.m.

Spring is finally here!
As winter is making its way out, the Public Works Dept was busy keeping the roads cleared from the snow events this season. Due to a mild winter with very few snow events, the road crew was able to start some early stormwater remediation work to get ahead of spring. During the month of March, we have completed the annual Clubhouse repairs and maintenance during the shutdown and enhanced the appearance of the kitchen, dining area, and server area. We will be enhancing the exterior landscaping in April. The Public Works Dept is also completing the Nubia Malkin Art Center renovations, and should be completed by mid-April.
The Tiki Bar project is on track to be completed by May 1st, and the project has been coming together very quickly. The New deck, Tiki bar, and restrooms will add a much needed entertaining area to the Main Lodge and Beach.
The Ski Hill performed very well this season as we had all aspects in our favor. With the Ski Hill now closed for the season, we will be starting some upgrades to enhance the 2023-2024 season and assist with making the operation much easier. We plan to extend the snow tube run to create more snow tube tracks and make it safer for our members.
The North Gate Project will be going out to bid in April, and we are looking forward to completing this project in the fall of 2023 or spring of 2024 based on cost.
The Main Gate Project is currently being reviewed by PennDOT and the Bridge Dept. This is a major project to enhance The Hideout Main Gate Entrance and help the flow of traffic to prevent stacking and accidents.
As the warmer weather makes its way in, the Public Works Dept will be busy getting our Pools, Beaches, Parks, Campground, and other outdoor amenities ready for the opening season. We look forward to a very fun 2023 season.
Trash and Recycling hours of operation continue to stay the same MondayFriday, 6 a.m. - 8 p.m., Saturday and Sunday, 8 a.m. - 8 p.m. Bulk Garbage drop off is Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday, 11 a.m. - 12:30 p.m. Bulk Garbage passes can be picked up from the POA Office, and passes will need to be given to the attendant upon drop off.

Greetings and happy April. It’s finally spring which means summer is just around the corner. The warmer weather is allowing us to get ready for the start of our outdoor recreation season. The Recreation Department is very excited about an eventful 2023. Roamingwood Lake and the Recreation activities will soon be in full swing. I strongly encourage everyone to take a look at the lakes and marina rules that are posted in this paper, on our website, and available at the Recreation Center.
If you are buying a new boat or jet-ski to use on Roamingwood Lake, please be certain that your watercraft meets The Hideout’s lakes requirements and doesn’t violate the restrictions. If you are unsure you meet these requirements, please feel free to call the Recreation Department, and we will gladly assist you. Most local marinas are aware of The Hideout’s rules and are willing to help you find a boat or watercraft that meets our needs.
Please keep a lookout for new announcements regarding new
recreational opportunities for this summer in The Hideout. Our department has some big announcements coming soon, and we are eager to share the news with you.
One very important date to remember is May 12th, at 10 a.m. This is when we will be opening up summer camp registration. There is a limited amount of space, and it does fill up fast.
Below please find the sports camps we offer this summer. The dates for these camps are as follows:

Selections for 2023
April 20 Malibu Rising
by Taylor Jenkins ReidMay 18 The Many Daughters of Afong Moy
by Jamie FordJune 15 Ordinary Grace
July 20 In a Dark, Dark Wood by
Ruth WareSo many we’ve known once sat in the park On old vintage benches just to visit and talk They spoke of their days some were long gone They knew the difference between right and wrong Their memory lingers when you see an old bench Nestled among the flowers the seasons just lend Built strong to weather the worst of the storms
The many who sat there felt they belonged How can we ever say thanks to the ones Who passed on their history with silly old puns They didn’t complain when their team lost a game They didn’t give up and they didn’t blame
The many old benches that line the park walk Stand ready for newbies to sit and to talk To tell their own stories of life through their eyes And often recall those gone with a sigh.
WOLRAD/2023
A friend is one who stands by you When you’re feeling sad and blue. A friend believes in you And hopes that all your dreams come true.
A friend’s heart, full of grace not greed, Will give as often as you need. And when it’s time to confide, From a friend there’s nothing you need to hide.
A friend speaks truth about the good or bad, Advises without hurting or making you sad; Encourages you to keep running the race, Even when obstacles need to be faced.
A friend comforts in times of distress, With soothing words that ease your stress. They won’t let you down when things are a mess, Because a true friend is friendship at its very best!
“A friend loves at all times, and is born, as is a brother, for adversity.”

Proverbs 17:17 (AMP)
Poem by: Millie Torzilli
Easter Sunday is a day when Christians across the globe celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Data from the Pew Research Center indicates there are approximately 2.4 billion Christians across the globe, which accounts for nearly onethird of the global population.
Though certain Christians groups do not celebrate Easter, many consider it the holiest day of the year. Given that significance, it’s no surprise Easter is steeped in symbolism. The following are some of the many symbols of Easter and what they represent to faithful Christians across the globe.
Eggs
Eggs might now be more instantly associated with Easter egg hunts for children, but the American Bible Society notes that eggs are symbolic of more than just fun for kids. Eggs represent the new life that’s symbolic of spring, which is when Easter occurs in the northern hemisphere. Christians view eggs as a reminder of the resurrection of Jesus. Interestingly, though colored eggs are often seen as a fun Easter activity for kids, the ABS notes that the tradition dates back to the early days of Christianity, when red-colored eggs were used to represent the resurrection.
Crucifix
The crucifix, which is a distinct representation of a cross with Jesus Christ on it, is symbolic of the crucifixion and subsequent resurrection of Jesus. The ABS notes that the resurrection of Jesus symbolizes his victory over the power of sin and death.
The Lamb
Jesus is referred to in the Bible as the “Lamb of God” (Revelation 5:6-14), so the lamb is another important Easter symbol for Christians. In addition, in John (1:29), Jesus is referred to by John the Baptist as the “Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world.”
Easter Bunny
Another symbol, like Easter eggs, that people could be forgiven for mistaking as purely secular, the Easter Bunny is not entirely separate from the spiritual meaning of the holiday. As noted, Easter, even though it’s a moveable feast, takes place in spring in the northern hemisphere each year. Spring is symbolic of rebirth, and the hare was a symbol of fertility among the ancient pagans. The spirit of rebirth associated with rabbits, particularly in spring, also is reminiscent of the resurrection of Jesus from his tomb.
Easter is celebrated across the globe. Those celebrations feature many significant religious symbols that have withstood the test of time. ■

Anything that takes a driver’s attention away from the road is considered a distraction. That includes adjusting the radio station, looking ahead at the route on a navigation system, reaching into the fast-food bag for a French fry, and answering a phone or responding to a text. Distractions can be visual (taking eyes off the road), manual (taking hands off the wheel), and cognitive (taking your mind off driving). Whether it is good for people or not, multitasking is now commonplace. That means individuals are juggling two or more different tasks at one time, even while driving. This propensity to try to fit more into a day may seem like it is improving efficiency, but certain studies show that multitasking often means the focus and attention to detail supplied to tasks isn’t as great when doing two things at once as opposed to focusing on one task at a time.
In terms of driving while distracted by something else, the consequences can be great. There is still work to be done to encourage drivers to be more attentive behind the wheel. ■

Arecent study from researchers at The Ohio State University found that the disparity between the number of words young children who are frequently read to have heard compared to those who have not been read to is significant.
The study first appeared online in the Journal of Development and Behavioral Pediatrics and found that young children whose parents read them five books a day entered kindergarten having heard roughly 1.48 million words. By comparison, children whose parents never read to them had heard just over 4,600 words by the time they entered kindergarten. Even children who are read to daily hear significantly fewer words than children whose parents read them five books a day. Such children hear just under 300,000 words prior to entering kindergarten. Exposure to a larger vocabulary is not the only benefit kids reap from being
If there is no sidewalk and you must walk on the side of the road, choose the side where you are facing oncoming traffic. In North America, this is the left side of the road. This gives you the best chance to see traffic approaching closest to you and take evasive action when needed.
Unless you are on a sidewalk separated from the road or you are in a wide bike/ pedestrian lane, you should walk in single file. This is especially important on a road with lots of curves and where traffic has only a split second chance of seeing you before hitting you. While it can be enjoyable to walk down the road two to three abreast chatting merrily, drivers don’t expect it and you may lose your best walking buddies.
Share the road and path with bikes and runners. Bike riders should alert you when approaching from behind with a bike bell or a “passing on the left/right.” Listen for them, and move to walk single file, allowing them to pass safely. Runners should also call out for passing. Bike-walker collisions can result in broken bones or head injury for either—and you aren’t wearing a helmet.
Wear bright colors when walking. When walking at night, wear reflective clothing or a reflective vest to be visible. Drivers are often not expecting walkers to be out after dark, and you need to give them every chance to see you. Be just as cautious at dawn or twilight, as drivers still have limited visibility or may even have the setting or rising sun directly in their eyes.
Make a practice of staying on one side of the path while walking rather than weaving randomly from side to side. Watch your arm motions, or you may end up giving a black eye to a passing walker, runner, or biker.
Don’t drown out your environment when listening to music with your earbuds or headphones. Keep the volume at a level where you can still hear bike bells and warnings from other walkers and runners.
read to. Reach Out and Read, a national nonprofit that champions the positive effects of reading daily and engaging in additional language-rich activities with young children, reports that languagebased interactions help children develop communication skills, patience, empathy, and literacy. Reading to young children also enhances their understanding of the world by transporting them to places and times they have never experienced.
One study also noted the effects that reading to young children can have on the relationship between parent and child. That study, authored by researchers at the University of Wollongong in Australia and Boston University and published in the journal Archives of Disease in Childhood, found that reading to young children supports a strong relationship between parent and child.
Distracted walking due to chatting, texting, or playing games on a mobile device while you walk is as dangerous as doing those things while driving. You are distracted and not as aware of your environment. You are less likely to recognize traffic danger, tripping hazards, or passing joggers and bikers. Adopt habits that can keep your phone in your pocket, or at least make it a practice to stop in a safe place to complete your phone tasks before moving on.
It is terrifying and tragic to witness dogs running out in to traffic or getting into a fatal dog fight, whether on leash or off leash. But when walking your dog on a long leash there is also a danger that you will trip other walkers or bikers. You will keep your dog safer as well as those who pass by you if you use proper leash walking etiquette.
Heat sickness, dehydration, heart attack, or stroke can strike walkers of any age. Learn the symptoms of medical emergencies and carry a cell phone to dial 911. Even if you are a seasoned and well-trained walker, you may experience one of these problems and need to cut your walk short. Encourage your walking friends to stop when they show any concerning symptoms.
Street safety is a concern for many walkers. Choose your walking route for paths frequented by other walkers, joggers, and bikers. If you see someone suspicious, be prepared to alter your course or go into a store or public building to avoid them. Acting alert and aware can convince bad guys you are not an easy target. ■

Committees are an essential part of our Association operations and help keep our community vibrant. They represent the membership through recommendations to the Board relating to their function and save the Association thousands each year by augmenting paid staff.
Without our active and effective committees, the Association wouldn’t be what it is today. They deserve our sincerest thanks. Our Association needs to cultivate fresh ideas and encourage additional resident involvement in our committees to continue this success. We want your support on committees that give the Board a way to gather information, offer new ideas and opinions, and provide a training ground for future Board members. All are advisory to the Board unless given specific decisionmaking authority by the Board or our Governing Documents. Committees have a goal and mission statement to help them succeed as a community resource.
There are three types of committees:
• Governing documents committees, ECC, Disciplinary, Budget, and Nominating, are established by the governing documents for a specific purpose supervised by the Board. The Hideout Protective Covenants or ByLaws require these, clearly defining power and authority. Except for Nominating, the Board makes appointments for a three-year term; however, there are no term limits on how many times one may serve. Nominating Committee appointments are a one-year term by membership nomination and vote at the Annual Meeting.
• Standing committees are established by the Board and have members with expertise in a specific area. Committee appointments are through committee vote and approval by the Board for a three-year, renewable term with no term limits. They include Public Safety, Communications, Lakes, Parks & Recreation, Wildlife & Forestry Management, Long Range Planning, Public Works, and Food & Beverage.
• Ad-hoc committees, such as Governing Documents, are established by the Board as needed for specific projects and tasks. The Board makes appointments to adhoc committees, and the committee disbands when the goals are accomplished.
Cluster mailboxes within The Hideout are limited. The United States Postal Service has advised The Hideout that their policy is to revoke and/or reassign the box of individuals who do not retrieve their mail for a period of three or more weeks. Please be sure to pick up your mail from your box on a regular basis.
If you are unable to retrieve your mail from your box for an extended time, you should make arrangements with the Lake Ariel Post Office to have mail held or forwarded and ask how to preserve your box assignment. ■

Falls are the main reason why older people lose their independence. You or a loved one may be at risk!
Each year, thousands of older Americans fall at home. Many of them are seriously injured, and some are disabled. In 2011, 23,000 people over the age of sixty-five died, and 2.4 million had to be treated in the emergency room department because of falls.
Falls can lead to severe injuries such as broken bones and head injuries. Even if the fall does not result in an injury, the psychological effect is also damaging. The fear of falling again can result in many individuals reducing everyday life activities. This results in the person becoming less active which leads to weakness and an increased risk of falling.
Four things you can do to prevent falls:
#1 begin an exercise program to improve your leg strength and balance.
#2 ask her doctor or pharmacist to review your medications.
#3 get an annual eye checkup and update your eyeglasses.
#4 make your home safer by:
- Removing clutter and tripping hazards
- Putting railings on all stairs and adding grab bars in the bathroom
- Having good lighting, especially on stairs
Your doctor may suggest having other medical tests, changing your medicines or prescribing physical therapy.
Physical therapists can work with atrisk individuals using a fall prevention program. These types of programs address the patient’s needs for strength and balance as well as biofeedback type exercises.
Contact your local community or senior center for information on exercise fall prevention programs or options for improving home safety. ■

Effective September 28, 2013 – At the Executive Session of the Board of Directors the Board passed the following resolution to improve our lake water quality as well as boating safety on Roamingwood Lake. The motion reads as follows:
To decrease both the noise on and oil pollutions in Roamingwood Lake, Effective January 1st 2014 all new gas powered boats being registered for the first time in The Hideout must be equipped with FOUR STROKE MOTORS. The maximum horse power remains at 90hp! The boat length restriction will remain at 17 foot, but will no longer be measured by the Recreation Department.
Also, to eliminate concerns and confusion on how a boats length will be measured before it can be registered in The Hideout, effective January 1st 2014 all new boats being registered in The Hideout for the first time must present official documentation (copy of title or registration) from the State in which the boat is registered that shows that the boat’s length does not exceed 17 feet.
****Used boats owned by a Hideout Property owner and were previously registered for Roamingwood Lake and are sold to another Hideout Property owner for use on Roamingwood Lake will be considered “grandfathered” and will be exempt from the Four Stroke Motor only restriction. ■
Spring kicks off the peak home hunting months of the year, but it isn’t until summer that things really get cooking. While there are pros and cons to buying and selling homes at various times throughout the year, summer can be, on average, 25 to 30 percent more active than the annual average.
In summer, you have a real mix of buyers and sellers…some serious and some not-so-serious. In the winter months, many buyers searching for homes would only do so if they absolutely had to. In the summer, there are often a larger number of buyers just toying with the idea.
Selling homes in the summer requires its own brand of seasonal marketing and showing. Here are a few tips you’ll want to keep in mind as you invite buyers to consider your home:
1. Keep it cool, but don’t keep it dark. Your instinct may be to close the blinds and draw the drapes, but making your rooms feel dark and shut-in is counterproductive. Run the A/C and keep the air circulating. While your wallet may
not appreciate the bump in your power bill, imagine how expensive it can be to keep the house on the market.
2. Stage it inside and out. Have a deck? What about a garden patio? Make them as inviting as you would the living room or kitchen. Stage them appropriately and tell the story of what it might be like to live with such nice amenities. Think magazine photo shoot!
3. Make the landscape sing. Curb appeal can be king in the summer months, especially when the neighbors may be looking a little worn by comparison. Mulch is the great equalizer…get rid of last year’s dead leaves …. remove weeds and get that grass cut up right up to the street.
4. Ride the sunset. With the longer daylight hours, you may have buyers who want to check out your home closer to dinner time, once the hottest hours of the afternoon have passed. Try and roll with the disruption… buyers prefer to see a home when the owners aren’t around. Take advantage of the summer sales activity! ■
Earth Day is an annual holiday that has been celebrated since 1970. Despite somewhat humble beginnings, much of the globe now celebrates Earth Day, which this year takes place on Saturday, April 22.
Earth Day has long drawn attention to issues affecting the planet and its climate. The effects of those issues have grown increasingly noticeable in recent years, which makes this Earth Day and all subsequent celebrations an ideal opportunity to celebrate the planet while learning about the many challenges it faces in the years to come. The following are some unique, fun and educational ways to celebrate the planet this April.
· Leave the car at home. Winter weather is a distant memory by late April in many places, making Earth Day an ideal time to travel by foot or by bicycle instead of by car. That's not only fun, but also a great opportunity to learn about carbon emissions. The United States Environmental Protection Agency reports that a typical passenger vehicle emits about 4.6 metric tons of carbon dioxide each year. Vehicles also emit a substantial amount of methane and nitrous oxide. This is why gas-powered vehicles are so often linked to climate change, much of which is driven by greenhouse gas emissions. A car-free Earth Day can be fun and serve as a catalyst for conversation about the effects of gas-powered vehicles on the health of the planet.
· Volunteer with a local environmental organization. Environmental organizations are committed to the ideals behind Earth Day all year long. However, each Earth Day many of these organizations sponsor eco-conscious efforts to help the planet
and raise awareness about issues like climate change. Volunteering with a local beach or park cleanup or signing up to walk and raise money for a local environmental charity makes for a fun and educational way to spend your Earth Day.
· Get your hands dirty and plant. The National Forest Foundation notes that planting trees can have a profound and positive impact on the planet. According to the NFF, planting more trees helps forests to sequester carbon, which can have a significant effect on climate change. The NFF estimates that 100 mature trees can remove 50 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent and 430 pounds of pollution from the atmosphere. Even if you can't work with a local forestry organization to plant more trees in a nearby forest, planting native trees on your own property can help combat climate change.
· Involve children in your efforts to combat climate change. Today's adults likely won't be the ones forced to confront the more challenging consequences of climate change. Unfortunately, that cost is likely to be passed on to future generations. That makes this Earth Day a great time to involve kids more directly in efforts to combat climate change. Explain the significance of avoiding the car, volunteering or planting trees in terms that kids can understand, emphasizing that the future of the planet could very well be in their hands.
Earth Day takes on greater significance each year as the effects of climate change become more noticeable. This year the holiday can be celebrated in various ways that are both enjoyable and educational.

AHideout Building Permit is required for the installation/operation of any “non-portable” residential whole house/ stand-by electrical generator. Small portable units are excluded. A separate permit is required if you need to install a propane tank to fuel the generator.
ALL applications for permits are located on The Hideout website or you can get any permit application at the POA Office.
IMPORTANT PORTABLE GENERATOR SAFETY TIPS:
- Never operate a generator indoors - it can cause unintentional carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning. Carbon Monoxide is a colorless, odorless gas
Hideout Members can register guests online. No need to call the gate. You not only have the ability to register your guests online but also on your mobile device.
1. Members must be in good standing
2. Members must first fill out the registration form to setup a login on our website at: www.hideoutassoc.com
The Registration form is under the Resource tab then click on Gate Access.
3. You will receive a confirmation from The Hideout once you register. ■
which, if inhaled, can be fatal.
- Do not install a generator right next to your home - carbon monoxide can collect in the eaves of your home.
- Don’t refill the generator’s gas tank while the unit is running as this can cause a fire, leading to serious injury or death.
- Be sure to remove all gas from the tank when storing your generator.
HOW TO CHOOSE A GENERATOR
- Identify the items you will need to run in the event of a power outage. Choose the generator that meets or exceeds the total
wattage requirement.
- Assistance from a qualified electrician is also advisable.
• 5,000 WATTS (41.7/20.8 AMPS)
Powers Refrigerator 700 watts, AM/FM radio 50 watts, Color TV 450 watts, Eight 100-watt lights 800 watts, Microwave 1,000, Sump pump 1,000 watts, Water pump 1,000 watts
• 6,800 WATTS (56.7/28.3 AMPS) Powers everything a 5,000 watt generator does, plus: Deep freezer 500 watts, Washing machine 1,100 watts
• 8,000 WATTS (66.7/33.3 AMPS)
Powers everything a 6,800 watt generator
does, plus: Attic fan 300 watts, Clothes dryer (gas) 700 watts, Four 100 watt lights 400 watts
NOTE - A simple formula to calculate how much combined power you’ll need to run appliances and tools is volts x amps = wattage. Check the power demands of your appliances to determine whether they can run simultaneously or intermittently. Always consult the data plate on the appliance for accurate electrical information.
Starting watts: Always plug in the appliance with the highest starting wattage first and add appliances in descending wattage order.
Spring is almost here. Opening dates depend on the weather, so let’s hope for a dry April with no more snow.
The Men and Women Leagues will begin in late May and early June. More information to follow in next month’s article. John Martino’s HASG Thursday League continues again this year. Thank you, John, for all the effort you put forth with this league.
Tournaments continue to be popular community events. There are currently 7 tournaments scheduled this season. All members and their guests are welcome to play in these events. The tentative schedule is posted with this article. You can sign up for these events 30 days in advance in the Pro Shop.
You receive a pre-tournament breakfast. 18 holes of golf with a cart. Hot dogs on the turn and refreshments served on the course, with a luncheon to follow. Prizes are also given out in the form of gift cards to be used in the Pro Shop.
Not only do members and their guests have fun playing in the tournaments, but funds were also raised benefiting multiple local community organizations.
We hope to continue our Youth Camp
this upcoming season. This is a 5-day camp held the first week in August and is open to youths ages 8- 12.
Next spring, there will be a slight increase in golf rates and golf pass purchases. All rounds of golf and cart fees are being increased by $1.00.
Yearly golf passes are being increased by $25.00. Permanent guest yearly golf passes are being increased to $450.00. Yearly golf passes are sold at the POA.
Ten play golf ten play cards are being increased by $9.00. The ten play cards are sold in the Pro Shop. Club rentals for both members and guests are being increased by $2.00. Hand cart rentals are being increased by $2.00 to $4.00 per rental. Twilight fees are also being increased by $1.00
Due to the inflationary nature of our economy and increases in wages, we find it necessary to make these changes.
Ten play cards will be available again this year for purchase in the Pro Shop. You receive 10 green fees for the price of 9. In addition, the cart fee card works the same way. You get 10 cart fees for the price of 9.
See you in the spring. ■
Calling all women golfers interested in joining the Friday morning Golf Chick League.
If you like playing golf, meeting new people and having an enjoyable Friday morning on the links, we welcome you to join the Golf Chicks. Opening day starts the first Friday after Memorial Day and ends right after Labor Day although many of us continue playing right through the fall, weather permitting. Most Friday games will be played at The Hideout although we often try to book t-times at other courses within a 30 minute drive from the HO.
If interested, please email Lili Mahlab (Seiden) at lilimahlab@gmail.com. ■
Golf is Back! Yes! Our HASG League is now taking names for the 2023 season! Our season will run every Thursday morning between June 1st and August 31st. for 14 Thursdays. Last year we had 62 players and everyone of us had a blast and met new people! This year we already have a few spouses/partners of players who I am holding spots for. We start out with a Sabrett hot dog luncheon (with Sabrett onions!! Yummy!) beer and wine at the Pub on June 1st to start off our social season and finish with a luncheon with awards and prizes. Also, Tammi has agreed to set up a special golf Thursday “featured” lunch for us, yet to be announced so we can have great time every Thursday at the Pub. BURPPP!!
We can have 72 players as a maximum in the league so it seems we will hit the maximum. I will ask everyone who played last year to contact myself or Bill Wagner if you plan on playing again this year by May 1st. After that date I will open it up to new players and since everyone that I spoke to has expressed a desire to play again, it looks like we will hit the max! After that max number, we will form a “substitute list” and the list will be used to fill in when a regular player can’t play. This will ensure we have a full 72 players every week. Last year we had such a great time that I am relatively sure we will be filled up.
For those of you who are not familiar with the HASG League, it is a non-competitive, fun, social, Captain’s Best Ball golf league designed so golfers of all levels (beginners thru experienced) can join and have a great time due to the structure of the league. It is based on averages and foursome scores. The foursomes are changed every week and you get to meet three new people every week! Again, I ask all of you to contact Bill Wagner or myself before May 1st to hold your spot if you played last year or if you want to play, get your name on the list!
Contact: John Martino (570) 892-0545 or email Jamartino414@gmail.com; Bill Wagner (570) 878-4677; Want to Join HASG? Call Marge Conlon for new member applications (631) 327-8850 ■
The Hideout Adult Social Group (HASG) held its annual Valentine’s Day luncheon at Palermo’s Restaurant on 02/10/2023. We had a turnout of about 70 people who enjoyed good music, great food but above all, the best company and friendship among our members. A special thanks to the members of the event committee who did a great job in organizing the luncheon, Margie Conlon, Lorraine Procopio, and Peggy Hartog.
Hope to see you all next year ... better yet, at our next event. If you are interested in becoming a part of the HASG the next meeting will be held at the Main Lodge on Thursday, April 13th. See you there!
We are always seeking new article ideas, submissions, and content. If you have an idea or would like to submit an article for consideration, please contact Lisa Green at lgreen@thehideout.us or by phone at (570) 630-3707. Thank you! ■

Are mutts healthier than purebred dogs? This question has been posed many times and the answer tends to be mixed.
The general public as well as some veterinarians have attested that mixed breeds, including hybrid 'designer' breeds, tend to be less vulnerable to genetic conditions that can affect longevity simply because their gene pools are more diverse. However, ask a breeder who specializes in conscientious breeding that relies on genetic testing, inherited disease testing and temperament control, and he or she will say a purebred dog is healthier.
PetMD reports that there are no definitive studies that have produced hard evidence to end the purebred versus mixed breed health debate. However, according to Dr. Sara Wooten, a veterinarian and contributor to PetMD with 16 years of clinical practice experience, mixed breed dogs tend to be healthier and live longer than many of
the purebreds she sees in her practice. According to Scientific American, the health issues that have cropped up in purebred dogs have only done so in the last 200 years, despite thousands of years of breeding dogs for certain traits. Standards set for certain breeds in the show ring have resulted in some breeders turning to line breeding, which
is a type of inbreeding that mates direct relatives, to produce desired traits and anatomical features. This can cause inherited diseases and exacerbate medical issues. But there are plenty of purebred dogs who live long, healthy lives. The same can be said for mixed breeds; some are hearty, passing the years in good health, while others have their days shortened by illness.
Whether an owners picks a mixed breed or a purebred dog, ensuring proper health care with annual wellness visits is vital for the long-term health of the animal. ■

Browntrout, one of Pennsylvania’s most sought-after fish when it comes to trout angling in many different water types. Brown trout are a fascinating fish with a rich history in the Keystone state. Many anglers year after year flock to small mountain streams, or stocked recreational ponds come April 1st to try their luck at catching brown, rainbow, and brook trout.
While Brown trout in Pennsylvania are considered wild in many streams and lakes, they are not native. The difference being that native organisms were always present in this location, and wild organisms have been introduced, and now reproduce naturally in the environment they were placed. Pennsylvania’s only native trout, and state fish is the brook trout. Many streams throughout Pennsylvania support wild reproduction of brown trout. Local Lake Wallenpaupack has a wild brown trout population, in conjunction with many small mountain streams in the area.
They call numerous water types home as well, including cold water impoundments such as large lakes, smaller mountain streams that maintain cooler temps, and large river systems throughout the state. Different portions of these water bodies will be utilized when brown trout spawn and lay eggs. Spawning will occur in the fall for brown trout, with eggs hatching in the spring months.
As the name indicates, “brown” trout are multiple shades of brown in appearance. These fish have a darker brown tone on the dorsal (top) side of their body, and transition into a buttery yellow color on the ventral (bottom) side of their body. Brown trout are speckled with black marks throughout the dorsal and mid portions of their frame, with some markings carrying a red and blue “halo” appearance on the rear portion of their body.
Brown trout are very adaptable in terms of what they call home, allowing them in their early stages of introduction to spread vastly across the state. These fish prefer cold or cool aquatic environments, and can tolerate water temps of up to 70 degrees. Browns can be found hanging out in many forms of natural cover in a stream or river that aids them in avoiding predators, such as log jams, undercut stream banks, overhanging laurel and rhododendron patches, and deep pools.
Trout in general have a variety of food sources that they prefer throughout the year. The majority of the time, they are eating different life stages of insects, including their egg, larvae, pupa, and adult forms. The early stages of these insects can be found drifting through the lower portions of the water column, making them easy targets for trout. Brown trout also predate other small fish within a water body. Larger trout will even target small mammals such as mice!
Whether a seasoned Pennsylvania angler, or an environmental enthusiast, many have reason to support conservation efforts to protect our trout populations for years to come. Trout are a fantastic sign of a healthy body of water!

People often turn to lighter fare when the weather warms because a dense, hot meal can contribute to feeling sluggish or overheated when the mercury has risen. In addition to sandwiches and platters of finger foods, salads can be refreshing on warm days. They also tend to be less calorie-dense and healthier than other offerings. This recipe for "Mediterranean Salad," courtesy of The American Heart Association, is full of vegetables and beans and fits with a heart-friendly diet. It's filling and delicious any time of the day or year.
Mediterranean Salad
Serves 4
1 medium head lettuce (green leaf, red leaf or romaine), cut into thin strips
1 medium cucumber, chopped
1/2 cup tomatoes, chopped
1 15.5-ounce can no-salt-added chickpeas, rinsed and drained
1/2 medium red onion, finely sliced
1/2 cup crumbled fat-free or low-fat feta cheese, or 1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar or 2 tablespoons cider vinegar
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon pepper
In a large bowl, gently toss the lettuce, cucumber, tomatoes, chickpeas, onion, and feta. In a small bowl, whisk together the oil, vinegar, garlic powder, and pepper. Pour the dressing over the salad, tossing to combine. ■

T. Jaggars moved to advertise Short Term Rental Ordinance for Public Hearing to be held on March 7th, 2023 at 7pm with adoption to be reviewed during the regular monthly meeting to immediately follow, carried 3-0.
Additional Public Comment: Joe Martinkovich questioned the Board on septic failures and water testing on Lake Ariel and if there are specific areas of problems. T. Jaggars noted that the Lake is tested at least 3 times a year at multiple site locations as well as the outlet of the Lake and water quality and numbers have been good for several years now. Mr. Martinkovich then asked about the Liberty Restaurant and noted concerns of safety and blight and questioned sewage. T. Jaggars noted that the Liberty Restaurant had a permitted holding tank and was no longer considered failure. John VanGorden questioned if a garage or storage building could go there. The property at this point is restricted for rebuild due to many concerns, setback lines and sewage flows. PA DEP will not allow another restaurant at that location. Any building reconstruction would have to use existing footing and outer wall otherwise a complete tear down would make setback lines and size of building almost nothing. Questions if the Township could take the property or set limits on time to clean up area. It was noted for the Township to purchase a current appraisal of the property would have to be completed and its private property so for what purpose would the Township have to take the property. Mr. Gaylord asked if he purchased the property and donated it to the Township would they take it and make it a green area. Supervisors noted they could take a donation. With no other comments.
S. Swingle moved to pay the bills and approve the payroll and to adjourn the meeting carried 3-0. ■
