If you’re thinking about buying or selling in The Hideout, RE/MAX Best represents homes across a wide range of price points—from more affordable options to premium properties—so there’s truly something for every budget.
For sellers, winter is a smart time to list. With low inventory and active buyers, listing now may help you stand out before increased competition arrives in the spring.
Our newly formed Board of Directors looks forward to serving the members of our community and encourages all members to attend our workshops and public meetings, either in person or by Zoom, to keep informed of the challenges our community faces.
We also ask that you re-familiarize yourselves with our governing documents, available on our website, as these will be this Boards operating and governing playbook.
As we are preparing this article, it is -2° outside and there is an impending snow storm that could bring up to a foot or more of snow to our community.
Our maintenance department has been in preparation mode for this storm for several days, ordering additional road salt and ensuring that all vehicles are in good working order.
Our Public Safety Department has also been in preparation mode, checking equipment and ensuring that there is adequate staff available should any emergency arise during the storm.
Our main lodge and our recreation building will remain available, should any member loose power
and need a place to stay warm.
We welcome our new Community Manager Dennis Polhamus, who was promoted from Facilities Manager and look forward to working with him to continue to improve our community for the betterment of all its members.
The 2026 dues notices have been mailed out and dues are due by March 31st. Our community faces some financial challenges due to rising costs of medical coverage, energy, food and insurance. We are making every effort to control spending by recent staff reductions, by eliminating waste in every department and through examination of all amenity losses over the last few years.
We hope to be announcing soon a town hall meeting with the membership and we will be asking for topics for discussion, and an active shooter seminar, to be conducted by PA State Police.
We are looking forward to continued successful days at our Ski Hill, which has been doing exceptionally well, having had some setbacks with weather related events earlier in the season.
Please stay safe as we all look forward to spring.
FROM DENNIS
Happy winter!!
I would like to introduce myself as the new Community Manager of the Hideout. My name is Dennis Polhamus, and prior to taking this new position, I was the Facilities Manager of the Hideout for the last 5 years. I would like to thank the Board of Directors for the opportunity to lead the Hideout in the future. My work ethic, dedication to excellence, and attention to detail have improved the Hideout during my time as Facilities Manager, and I aim to carry these same traits into my role as community manager. As we embark on creating a transparent approach to how we operate, I look forward to working with the Board of Directors, Hideout management, and all of our wonderful employees and members who help make the Hideout a great place to live and grow. With the challenges we all face on a day-to-day basis, my intention is to work closely with management, the Board of Directors, and all committees to resolve issues and create a game plan for positive change.
As many of you are aware,
we are currently performing the excavation phase of the new Mini Golf Course and planning on moving to phase two, which is installing the elevation changes for Harris Mini Golf to prepare the concrete forms in the spring. As this project progresses, we will keep you all updated. The Ski Hill has been open since December 27th, and with some minor hiccups, we anticipate it will remain open until the weather forces us to close. The snow-making capabilities have been difficult this season with warmer-thanaverage temperatures and rain, which caused some delays in December and January, but hopefully the weather stays in our favor. The Main Gate PennDOT project is awaiting PennDOT's revisions, and once we gather more info, we will continue to update.
Thank you all for your continued support, and feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns!
Happy February. It’s the month for “Amore”, going to Paris, holding hands and looking at the Eiffel Tower, sitting at a “boulangerie”, eating cheese and drinking wine, giving goo-goo eyes to each other. Maybe going to Venice and sitting side by side in a gondola, or better yet, coming to the clubhouse for a romantic dinner, or sitting by the fire at the ski hill, sipping on a hot toddy. The clubhouse will feature a surf-and-turf dinner on Saturday, the 14th, and Sunday, the 15th, after 4pm. On Sunday, the 15th, we will be offering a special Sunday Brunch with expanded selections and an omelet bar. Just a reminder that Trivia is every Thursday night in the Pub starting at 7 pm.
Sunday, February 8th, is Super Bowl Sunday. The clubhouse will have the game with drinks and food features to celebrate the day.
Friday the 13th starts President week. The Clubhouse will be open on Tuesday after 12 for an additional day of service. The Ski Grill will be open all week for a light breakfast and lunch throughout the ski day. Look for the Ski Bar to be open also.
We will officially start the Lodge bar remodel and the hanging of the wall fixtures this month. The Lodge will be closed during the remodel and reopen in March.

A special shout-out to Chef Brett. This will be his 25th year at The Hideout.
On the finance side. The F&B Department, with all its amenities combined, was under the 2025 net operating budget. This is the 1st time in many years that we finished the year positive on the members' portion of the operating costs. The Chefs, Supervisors, and team continue to push for excellent comment cards and bring our members a reason to visit. Finally, to all who patronize and continue to use the Clubhouse, Lodge, Tiki Bar, Beach Grill, and Ski Hill Grill. Your continued patronage allows this to happen and grow.

FROM MATT PUZIO, PUBLIC SAFETY MANAGER
Dear Valued Members & Guests,
February is most known for Valentine’s Day which celebrates love! So, with that in mind “ Stop in the name of LOVE” before you break a HEART!
We are asking for your help in spreading some LOVE for SAFETY on and around our roadways within the community. There has been an uptick in complaints and reports of drivers not observing the posted “STOP” signs at intersections. We do not want to see anyone get hurt and will be enforcing high complaint areas along with other locations throughout the month.
Stopping at these posted signs is more than about following rules. It’s about making sure that everyone is safe on the road when out passing through the community. Help us by preventing accidents, and also being concerned for

your safety and others! Remember that failing to make a “Complete Stop” at posted areas can and will result in a fine. In posted “Safety Zones” these fines are doubled. When driving through our wonderful community we also ask that you reduce your speed. As a reminder our streets are 25mph. We also ask that you help be a good neighbor by reducing “U-Turns” or driving through your neighbor’s driveway to turn around when you’ve discovered that you might be headed in the wrong direction.
Super Bowl Plans?
Please remember to drink responsibly and arrange for a ride if necessary!
As always, we are here to assist our community and we look forward serving all of you with professionalism, and integrity.

I will continue to be an advocate for both the Members and the Community.

As a business owner with a background in construction, snow removal, and real estate, I bring practical experience in project management, operations, and property stewardship that will support thoughtful decision-making for the Hideout.

February has arrived, and we are well on our way to spring. Here are some updates that will carry us into March and the early beginnings of warmer weather.
• Ice fishing is prohibited on all lakes except for Brooks Lake
o Notification is sent communitywide when Brooks Lake is open to ice fishing.
o Monitor email blasts for important lake updates.
• Roamingwood Lake will remain drawn down until March 15th, 2026
• Community deer population surveys took place in the month of December. This consists of two nights during which populations are counted along predesignated routes throughout the community.
oAny deer that are needed to be removed following surveys are donated through the Hunters Sharing the Harvest program, providing thousands of meals to those in need.
oThis plays an important role in preserving both deer herd health and forest regeneration success.
•Feeding wildlife in the Hideout POA is strictly prohibited.
oViolators are subject to $1000 fines if caught feeding wildlife.
*Excluding bird feeders placed 10 feet from ground level.
As members have experienced during recent storms, many trees have come down due to high winds and heavy rain. We ask that members regularly inspect their lot and consider creating a plan to have any dangerous trees removed from their lot. Many local tree companies
advertise in the Hideabout or through local sources that are qualified to assess tree safety concerns. Tree removal can be expensive, but health and safety cannot be replaced.
The POA will continue removing trees in common areas and POA-owned properties to ensure the safety of our members.
•Please consider registering your Hideout property as a certified wildlife habitat through the NWF.
•The Hideout is seeking national recognition as a certified wildlife habitat community via the NWF. To achieve this goal, 150 residents must register their property with the NWF. We are nearing this goal and will become members of a small group of communities throughout Pennsylvania by achieving this designation!
• 49 more members are needed to sign up within the Hideout to reach our goal.
• Upon registering a property as a certified wildlife habitat, a $25 fee is due. The Hideout will cover the $25 fee for all residents who register their property.
• To register, please email the Environmental Manager (pmatarazzo@thehideout.us) for a link providing online registration, or stop by the POA office for a paper application!
o For any questions regarding certifying property as NWF wildlife habitat, please reach out to the environmental manager via the email address provided above as well.
Beginning in 2021, The Hideout POA embarked on a mission to gain designation as a National Wildlife Federation certified community. The certification would label The Hideout as a wildlifefriendly community. This may not seem like a big deal, but only a small number of communities nationwide have met the requirements for this label. 200 communities in the U.S. have gained this NWF designation, while only 14 communities are currently certified in Pennsylvania.
The NWF is a fantastic organization that gives back exponentially to our wildlife and ecosystems. On their community front, they aid in many key components to keeping “nature natural”. They support keeping areas forested, reducing polluted runoff and its consequential effects on water quality, implementing best management practices (BMPs) for conservation and preservation, protecting pollinators, and preserving the beauty of the community. All of this is accomplished through their guidelines for certifying individual properties as wildlife gardens and habitats.
Act, and countless other initiatives over the last few decades. They play an important role in driving many positive environmental policies, all the more reason to give them our support, and want to be a part of such a great organization.
Outside of their environmental stewardship support within communities, they are large proponents on the political front for new environmental policy. Some examples of movements they supported in efforts to protect habitat and wildlife are the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative, the Farm Security and Rural Investment Act, the Water Resources and Development
To achieve our designation as a wildlife-friendly community, 49 additional residents need to register their properties as wildlife habitats. The fee to register one’s property with the NWF is $25, which the POA will cover in its entirety. Sign up is simple; go to the following link to begin registering (https://www.nwf. org/CertifiedWildlifeHabitat). Paper applications are also available in the POA office. Once selecting “start now”, some basic questions will be asked pertaining to your property to ensure that it provides the very basic needs that wildlife require. Once this is complete, you will submit your application online and await certification! All new property registrations will need to submit proof of registration to Paul Matarazzo, Environmental Manager, for reimbursement. This can be done via email (pmatarazzo@ thehideout.us). Application forms for certification can also be printed and given to residents at the POA building if paper is preferred.
If any questions remain unanswered or further information on the topic is desired, please reach out to Paul Matarazzo, Environmental Manager, via the email provided above or at 570-698-4100 Ext. 120, or stopping by the POA building.
Upon receiving a Hideout Building, or Tree Removal Permit, it must be attached to your sign post before starting any work at the property. Proper postage of permits allows our ECC department, and Public Safety to ensure that work being performed at a property is properly permitted and lawful in cases where a township permit is also required. Upon completing work, the permit is to be returned either in person, or via mail to the POA to record closure of the permit. Failure to post a permit will result in a stop work order being issued, carrying a $250 fine▪
As the temperatures rise and fall this winter, be sure to check your email. Our Environmental Manager will send out updates on Lake Conditions and ice depth. When temperatures are below freezing and cold air lingers for extended periods of time, ice thickness and stability are measured and recreating on Brooks Lake is permitted. Be alert and watch for signage at the Lake indicating potential restricted areas or the entire lake at times.

• WORK INJURIES
• AUTO INJURIES
• FALL RISK / GAIT / BALANCE
By Bernie Povanda, PT, COMT, FAAOMPT Owner, Physical Therapy Associates of NEPA
Chronic low-back pain (CLBP) responds modestly to medications: nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and short courses of opioids can reduce pain briefly, and certain agents (duloxetine, selective neuropathic drugs) show small benefits for specific subgroups — but effect sizes are generally small and must be balanced against side effects. Evidence-based guidance therefore favors using medications as part of a multimodal strategy (physical therapy, education, behavioral therapies) with the lowest effective dose for the shortest needed duration.
Sciatica (lumbar radicular pain) is especially challenging: highquality trials fail to show consistent, durable benefit from most oral drugs, and short-term leg pain relief is often unreliable. Heterogeneous causes (disc herniation, inflammatory versus neuropathic mechanisms), variable trial designs, and small sample sizes leave major research gaps about which drugs, at what dose and timing, truly help. Large, rigorous randomized trials are still needed.
Precision medicine — using biomarkers (blood, imaging, genetics) and pain-phenotyping — offers a path forward. Emerging studies show panels of biological and psychosocial markers can stratify patients and modestly predict who will develop chronic pain or respond to treatments. Ongoing trials (e.g., biomarkerguided spine studies) aim to match therapies to mechanism (nociceptive vs neuropathic vs nociplastic), which could increase efficacy and reduce unnecessary exposure.
In short: current pharmacotherapy for CLBP and sciatica provides limited, often short-lived relief; best practice is targeted, cautious medication use within multimodal care while supporting biomarkerdriven research that may enable personalized, more effective treatment in the near future.

The Hideout Adult Social Group (H.A.S.G) was formed in January 1980. For more than a third of a century the group has been providing an opportunity for members to meet and socialize with other members of the community. Whether you are new to the Hideout or are fortunate enough to be an “established” resident, if you enjoy meeting new friends, socializing with old acquaintances, if you like to party and have fun, the H.A.S.G. is definitely for you.
Typical events include dinner dances, picnics, luaus, local outings, social golf and anything else that you can think of that involves socializing, dining and just generally having a great time with wonderful friends, new and old. New ideas are always enthusiastically welcomed.
Our Board of Directors consists of a President, 1st Vice President, 2nd Vice President, Recording Secretary and Treasurer. Standing committees consist of Hospitality, Sunshine, Welcoming and Good Neighbors and Golf. Special
committees are formed to help with all scheduled events. Members are always encouraged to join committees and chair events.
The H.A.S.G. meets the second Thursday of every month at 1pm in the Main Lodge unless otherwise informed. Refreshments are always served. Upcoming events are discussed, and pertinent matters are voted on by the membership. There is a raffle drawing at each meeting: half the proceeds are distributed to local charities such as food pantries, volunteer fire departments and other worthy community needs – the other half is distributed to the lucky winners at each meeting.
We hope you will make many lasting friendships and enjoy being a member of the H.A.S.G. for many years to come. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to speak to any member of the Board.

To stay safe walking, follow these rules of the road:
Walk
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.
2. Walk Single File When Not Separated from the Road
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.
3. Stay Aware of Bikes and Runners
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.
4. Be Visible
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.
6. Keep the Volume Down
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.
7. Hang Up and Eyes Up
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.
8. Walk Dogs on Short Leashes
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.
9. Know When to Stop Walking
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.
10. Be Aware of Stranger Danger
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. ■
Please be courteous to your fellow members and clean up after your pet on the roadways and at the Dog Park

Dogs are allowed on the Hideout Nature Trail, but please be advised there are several rocky areas, and wet/ ground soaked conditions in some portions. While the trail does have benches for resting and reflecting along the way, the terrain could prove difficult for those with young children, strollers, or any person (or pup!) not steady on their feet. The Hideout Nature Trail is a great feature to our community and a wonderful place to enjoy the outdoors if you are prepared to navigate the landscape.

CALL TO ORDER @ 9:00 AM PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE
PRESENT:
Members: Tom Murphy (via Zoom), Ray Popisil (via Phone), Paul Gazza, Mary Wilts
Staff: (Facilities) Dennis Polhamus & Craig Rafaniello, (Board) Ed Esposito-(via Zoom), Jill Meschalat
EXCUSED: Walt Buda, ABSENT: Judy Kennedy
APPROVAL OF MINUTES FROM THE September 19th, 2025 MEETING: Motion By: Ray
Second By: Mary
Vote: 4 For - 0 Against - 0 Abstain
DISCUSSION:
ONGOING:
● Ski Hill: Prep going well for the upcoming season. Maintenance has been switching gears from summer to winter. Should be up and running with several new improvements.
● Cellular No new info. Ed is still working on the possibility of ideas for a system to help those who have no service. Hazard for those who may need assistance.
● Laurel Park/Campground Schedule: Maintenance has been working on some Phase One projects - mostly clean up and removal of abandoned trailers/ etcc.. The main push will begin in the spring. Dennis suggested the committee plan another walk around when the weather improves in the spring to see the status of the progress and the planning for Phase 2, including expanding the boat storage/utility storage area. The committee agreed with this idea.
● Roads-Paving Project
o Next steps: other committees mainly work on this, but Dennis would like for us to keep it on our radar for budgetary needs.
● Pool/Splash Pad Project
o Next Steps: Jill spoke to the committee about CMR’s and timing for submission. As with the Laurel Park Project, a phased approach seems to be the best course of action. Beginning with a CMR for engineering plans, prioritization of funds and a budgetary estimate. This would need to move in sync with facilities, as
the creation of this new amenity would impact that group as well as the recreation department. This includes challenges with personnel and staffing. The earliest budget cycle would be 2027. The committee recognizes and welcomes ideas from Recreation and the need for these committees to work together. So, input from Recreation, Public Safety, Facilities would be imperative.
CURRENT:
● Committee Question
○ 2025 Holidays
○ Roster 2026: Walt Budda has left the committee after many years of service.
WE WOULD LIKE TO THANK WALT FOR HIS TIME AND DEDICATION TO THE COMMITTEE.
■ Need for more committee members: suggested announcements in the newspaper, FB, and the board meetings.
○ Meeting Schedule: discussion of a bi-monthly meeting schedule for 2026. Because many items are long-term, it may be a more reasonable use of committee members/staff/ board time. To be decided at next meeting.
○ Ed indicated that Mary W and Tom M were reappointed to the committee for 2 years. Paul and Ray’s memberships are still in place.
● Open Discussion
○ Paul brought up Miller Road and the need to revisit this discussion: hunting club/culling area for deer population, green space, storage?
■ Suggestion of pulling the notes from the board meetings on when this parcel of land was purchased in 2018?
● As mentioned in years past, the committee also would like to have access to the Capitol Reserve Study to see what monies may be utilized by the board for amenities and community needs. This would need board approval.

The Hideout Adult Social Group (HASG) believes in neighbors helping neighbors. Although the Good Neighbors Club is a function of the HASG, we are pleased to offer medical equipment to all Hideout residents.
Many people in The Hideout have donated medical equipment which they no longer have need of. These items are now being kept in a storage closet in the Indoor Sports Complex. There are lots of walkers and crutches, some canes, numerous potty chairs, and shower seats, a few wheelchairs and a scooter. If you have need of any of these for yourself or if a guest is coming for the weekend and is in need of one for that time period, you may borrow one by stopping in at the Recreation office, (570) 630-3733, and someone will show you to the storage closet.
Please remember to sign out whatever you are borrowing. If you are unable to get to the Indoor Sports Complex, please contact Carolyn Hanel, at (215) 3787566 and she will arrange for you to get what you need. ■
