CIRCLE
C
reativity lined the walls and
counters at Citizens Savings
Bank in Clarks Summit during
the month of April. A variety of
artwork was displayed from ab-
stract designs, to paintings inspired by Alice
in Wonderland, to large collaborative piec-
es, all created by Abington Heights High
School students.
The exhibit, titled Art in the Office was
the banks way of celebrating its communi-
ties during Community Banking Month,
according to Lisa M. Bonacci, Vice Presi-
dent, Human Resources. Each branch held a
similar event.
We felt the idea of showcasing the artistic
talents of our local high school students
(grades 9-12) would be a great opportunity to
promote the students and their schools in
each community, Bonacci said via e-mail.
We wanted to show how important these art
programs are to supporting the students
personal expression and development and to
show them the local businesses care and
want to help them reach their full potential.
She said this was the banks first Art in the
Office program, but they hope to make it an
annual event.
A reception was held for the student artists

CLARKS SUMMIT- Joyce
and David Tressler of Clarks
Summit will be honored with
The Salvation Army Commu-
nity Service Award at the orga-
nizations annual dinner Thurs-
day at 6:30 p.m. at the Radisson
Lackawanna Station Hotel,
Scranton.
Salvation Army Major Bea
Connell said the Tresslers were
chosen unanimously by the
committee because of their
dedication and commitment
to the county.
The husband and wife are
active in the local community,
and David Tressler said they
have been involved with the
Salvation Army for the past 15
to 20 years.
Joyce has been involved for
a long time, he said. One of
the main things she does is help
out with the mailings, such as at
Christmas time, sending noti-
fications that help is needed.
She has done an outstanding
job there.
David Tressler has also been
a committed volunteer. One
year, he ran a fund drive for the
organization and he rings the
red kettle bells each Christmas
for its annual collection.
When they need help, I try
to help out, he said. Actually,
Ive been very much involved
in other community activities,
working side by side with the
Salvation Army. I think they
are an outstanding organiza-
tion, helping the community
and local families. They are
very good at providing help.
The real heroineis Major
Bea Connell, Joyce Tressler
said. She is really a model for
howwe can make a difference
anytime, anywhere.
The Tresslers have volun-
teered with a variety of orga-
nizations in addition to the
Salvation Army and been in-
volved in community service
projects, some together as a
couple and some individually.
Joyce said some of these in-
clude the Voluntary Action
Center, United Way, Holy Fam-
ily Residence, Northeast Re-
gional Cancer Institute,

Service Award honoree
LA PLUME - Each of the
students involved in Keystone
Colleges service and outreach
programs have their favorite
service projects, unique to
their individual interests, pas-
sions and goals. Some regu-
larly visit the elderly, prepar-
ing meals for them and listen-
ing to their stories. Some
spend time reading to children
in pre-schools or mentoring
at-risk youth. Others focus on
the needs of the environment,
planting trees and picking up
litter.
All the participating stu-
dents, however, seem to share
one common desire: to make
the world a better place, start-
ing in their own communities.
Maria Fanning, Director of
Community Outreach at
Keystone, La Plume, is the
person who assists the stu-
dents in finding the service
projects that tie in with their
majors, skills and passions.
She also serves with them,
lending encouragement and a
helping hand along the way.
She said the outreach pro-
grams are an important part of
the students education and
provide valuable experience
and good memories for them
as well.
We have a lot of fun, she
said.
Fanning referred to the ser-
vice projects as a win-win
for the students and communi-
ties they partner with. The
students gain new skills, make

EDITORS NOTE
Editor:
Recently my daughter, Ceci-
lia, held a concert in order to
raise funds for the Lackawan-
na Trails Music Department
in her attempt to give back to
her school. Obviously, I am
proud of my daughter, but I
must also say how proud I am
of all the students who partici-
pated in an event that required
a large participation by them
in order to succeed.
Over 20 students participa-
ted and gave hours of their
time to learn the music cre-
ated by my daughter. Some
also added to the program by
performing in a fellow stu-
dents jazz band, or by per-
forming a solo act, thus cre-
ating a true Celebration of
Music!
I also commend and thank
their music director, Mr. Ke-
vin Dikeman, who was there
every step of the way for the
rehearsals and interviews, and
also performed in the jazz
band, in order to promote the
success of the program. His
dedication to the students and
quality music in the school is
so amazing.
The news media also pro-
vided tremendous support for
this event, and it was greatly
appreciated.
A large amount of money
was raised through contribu-
tions and advertising, which
showed how much the com-
munity supports music in the
Lackawanna Trail School
District. Trails High School
principal, Mr. Rushefski, and
his staff were also very sup-
portive of the event.
Having attended the con-
cert, the proof was apparent
that we have a large amount of
talent in our school district.
Im sure the same can be said
for other schools as well. For
this reason, we must do every-
thing possible to keep music
education strong in our
schools, regardless of a bud-
get crisis. The students want it
and need it, the community
supports it, and without it,
where would our childrens
future be?

NEWTON TOWNSHIP- Supervisor Doug
Pallman announced April 9 that paving on
specific township roads will begin in a few
weeks. We have the roads that we specified
last year getting paved in just a few weeks; we
are also investigating some of the town roads
that seem to be cracking. We were able to hold
the paving price from last year to this year,
which is a plus, but we also need to think about
our grader, said Pallman.
Pallman explained that the towns grader has
been down for a long time and parts are no
longer available. We need to look at renting a
grader because we have ditch work to do. I
think we should sell the current grader for
parts, he said. Supervisor Ron Koldjeski add-
ed that it was more cost effective to rent a
grader then to purchase one and that the town-
ship could rent the grader as needed. The
board approved to advertise the grader for
parts and to rent a grader/roller as needed.
Supervisor Ron Koldjeski also said that
Curative Amendment Hearings have been
scheduled for May 9 at 6:30 and 7:30 p.m.
Koldjeski explained that the hearing is to re-
view zoning in regard to gas drilling and re-
ceive public comments for or against. The
following meeting would be to approve the
proposed ordinance.
The board approved the installation of sur-
veillance cameras at the towns recreation cen-
ter. The board received the donation of two
cameras and agreed to purchase four additional
cameras at a cost of $165 each from Endless
Mountain Security at a cost not to exceed
$3,230. Koldjeski said, We have a daycare in
there, and kids coming in and out, senior citi-
zens that use the building and we do need to
beef up the security. The installation of the
cameras will also help our insurance costs so
that they go down.
The board approved the Abington Rotary
Club Fireworks display June 30 with a mass
gathering permit, and with a waiver of the fees.

Soon there will be improve-
ments to the Abington Area
Community Park to the tune
of approximately $1 million.
According to Lynne Earley,
the senior member of Clarks
Green Borough Council, the
boroughs tradition of support-
ing the Abington Area Joint
Recreation Park, a 100-acre
tract of land in the Township
of South Abington, dates back
to February 14, 1972 when
Clarks Green and four other
Abington area municipalities
agreed to create a joint board
to be known as the Abington
Area Joint Recreation Board
(AAJRB) and acquire and
develop an area recreation
site; and acquisition of a suit-
able site from the Common-
wealth of Pennsylvania.
After the joint board was
formed, the Commonwealth
authorized the transfer of a
tract of 100 acres of land,
more or less, in the Township
of South Abington, sold for
$1, Earley explained. This
transfer took place December
19, 1974.
I am happy to continue the
tradition of Clarks Greens
support of the Abington Area
Joint Recreation Park, she
said, referring to the boroughs
role as a technical applicant
and financial agent for the
Redevelopment Assistance
Capital Program, RACP grant,
in the amount of $900,000.
The board was the sub-gran-
tee. Clarks Green Borough is
acting as a municipality to
work in conjunction with the
board in administering funds
that will be used for a field
turf project at the parks In-
ternational Field. Earley add-
ed, Coupled with the many
volunteer initiatives already
underway at the park, the next
few years promise to be very
positive and transformative for
the park.
At last weeks borough
council meeting, Clarks Green
awarded the contract to Field
Turf to install a synthetic sur-
face soccer/football field on
the now-lighted middle field
at the park, according to Bill
Risse, Abington Area Joint
Recreation Board Chairman
and Clarks Green representa-
tive.
This represents approxi-
mately a $1 million upgrade to
the sports facility that will
become a multi-purpose asset
for community recreation
programs. It will also give us
an opportunity to create/at-
tract/host tournaments and
camps that will have an eco-
nomic impact on the Abington
area, said Risse.
Marie King, a volunteer
with the Abington Area Com-
munity Parksaid, When it
comes down to it, Clarks
Green has little or no recre-
ational space within its bor-
ders. The Abington Area
Community Park is its park.
So when Risse approached us
to be the RACP applicant for
the park, our Council at the
time thought it was far-sighted
to apply. Besides the RACP
grant, we were also the appli-
cant on several other grants
for park projects such as the
new pavilion.
My involvement with the
Dog Park has illustrated very
clearly the incredible commu-
nity bonding opportunities
that exist at the park.Keith
Williams, Clarks Green Bor-
ough president, said the coun-
cil is pleased to be able to
participate in the project. Its
going to be wonderful for the
community, Williams said.
Its going to be accessible
(handicapped) for people with
disabilities. Im disabled and
Im looking forward to the
day when Ill be able to get
out there and use all of the
facilities.
Work on the field turf pro-
ject is expected to begin soon
and will continue throughout
the summer. Site work will
start in July for about one
month, after which the crew
will install turf with the aim of
a September completion.

SOUTH ABINGTON TWP. -
Graduating members of Tomorrows
Leaders Today, a youth program
through Leadership Lackawanna,
hosted a Waffles & Wishes fun-
draiser, April 19 at the Nichols Vil-
lage Hotel & Spa. Proceeds from
the breakfast benefited Make-A-
Wish.
The 34 graduates of the 2012 To-
morrows Leaders Today are juniors
from 15 high schools across Lacka-
wanna County; they have been col-
laborating with Make-A-Wish since
the beginning of the program in
October.
The proceeds will benefit the
Make-A-Wish Greater Pennsylvania
chapter which consists of 11 coun-
ties throughout Pennsylvania. Ac-
cording to Maggie OBrien, Region-
al Manager for the Make-A-Wish
Greater Pennsylvania Chapter, there
are two requirements a child must
meet to be considered for Make-A-
Wish: a child must be between the
ages of 2-and-a-half and 18 and
living with a life-threatening illness.
Since its inception in 1983, the
Greater Pennsylvania Chapter as a
whole has granted more than 12,500
wishes, according to OBrien. Since
the inclusion of Lackawanna County
in the chapter in 1987, OBrien said
there have been 190 wishes granted
and there are currently 14 pending.
She said that all money raised local-
ly stays locally and the money
raised at Waffles & Wishes will
benefit childrens wishes in Lacka-
wanna County.
The chapter grants, on average,
six wishes each month and has a
goal of 70 per year. The average
cost per wish is $3,900, OBrien
said. According to her, the average
amount of a wish is the cost for a
family of four to visit Disney, which
accounted for 57 percent of wishes
for their chapter in the previous
fiscal year. The percentage includes
Disney World, Disney Land and the
Disney Cruise, she said.
During Waffles & Wishes,
OBrien introduced 8-year-old Tho-
mas Boylan to those in attendance.
Thomas, who lives with Glycogen
Storage Disease. It was announced
during the event that Thomas will
receive his wish and that he, along
with his family, leave in July for a
weeklong Disney Cruise.
Thomas said what he is most
looking forward to is the giant
slide.
Nicole Barber, Program Adminis-
trator for Leadership Lackawanna,
said the collaboration between To-
morrows Leaders Today and Make-
A-Wish, not only impacted the
community, but influenced areas
youth, including the child who re-
ceived a wish today and the 34 par-
ticipants of the TLT (Tomorrows
Leaders Today) program.
The final total raised for the event
was $6,377.60, according to
OBrien. She said students raised
$5,353.35 from the school activities
and the rest was raised at Waffles &
Wishes.

new connections with
community partners and
theyre proud of the contri-
butions they make, she
said, adding that the com-
munity partners receive
free manpower to help
them realize their dreams.
An added bonus for
several of the students is
the opportunity to join
AmeriCorps, a federal
program which promotes
community service. Fan-
ning said that to become
an AmeriCorps scholar, a
student must complete 300
hours of approved service
per year. Then, at the end
of the year, she said the
scholars are awarded a
$1,175 scholarship toward
their tuition.
One such student, Cece-
lia Blue, from Bethlehem,
a senior majoring in psy-
chology, said when Fan-
ning first encouraged her
to join the AmeriCorps
program, she had already
been completing many
hours of weekly communi-
ty service simply for the
joy of it through the Win-
ners Circle Club and the
Keystone Service Club.
I like to make a posi-
tive difference in the com-
munity, she said via e-
mail, and I learned that
surprisingly, it doesnt take
much to do so. It is amaz-
ing how an hour of your
time can make an impact
on an elderly person or a
child, animal or anyone in
need.
Blue has participated in
a variety of service pro-
jects through Keystone,
such as volunteering in
pre-school centers, men-
toring children through
Big Brothers Big Sisters
and EOTC, gardening in
the Keystone Community
Garden, panting flowers
and trees in the communi-
ty through the Shade Tree
Commission, and spend-
ing time with senior citi-
zens at the Christy Math-
ewson Senior Center.
She said sometimes it
can be difficult finding the
time to schedule projects
on top of all her classes,
but the trick is to stay
organized and to make
sure to keep up with
school so that there is time
to participate in service.
Another AmeriCorps
Scholar, Heather Varady,
of Dalton, a senior Envi-
ronmental Resource Man-
agement major, said she
most enjoys volunteering
with the Shade Tree Com-
mission. Shes helped with
the rain gardens, painting
rain barrels and planting
trees. She said she enjoys
these projects because they
relate to her field of study
and she knows they are
great causes that will help
the environment.
She said she also espe-
cially enjoys visiting the
senior citizens at Lithia
Valley Manor, where she
serves snacks and spends
time with the residents.
I like to listen to the
seniors stories of growing
up in the area, she said
via e-mail. I have learned
that life was so much dif-
ferent back when they
were growing up. It makes
me appreciate what I have.
It has developed my love
for history because every-
one has a story to tell.
Varady also volunteers
at the Factoryville Library,
and organized an entire
book sale fundraiser,
which she said was a suc-
cess.
Diane Starkey, of Car-
bondale, is another Amer-
iCorps Scholar at Keys-
tone. She is in her senior
year and majoring in crim-
inal justice with a minor in
psychology. She said she
first heard about the ser-
vice and outreach pro-
grams through a friend
when she needed to find a
mandatory service project
for a class she was taking.
Once that project was
complete, she decided to
continue the service pro-
jects because she wanted
to help people.
Some recent projects she
has assisted with include
mentoring children
through Big Brother Big
Sister and EOTC and vol-
unteering at Goodwill,
Angels Attic Food Bank
and the United Neigh-
borhood center.
I love everything I do,
she said, but my favorite
is mentoring the children.
She also said what she
enjoys most is getting to
know different people and
the issues they face in the
community.
I feel like this has
changed my outlook on
everything, she said, add-
ing that she feels everyone
should help out at least a
little wherever they can in
their communities.
Starkey, Blue and Vara-
dy all agreed that service
and outreach programs
like AmeriCorps and the
various clubs at Keystone
are important to have in
colleges across the nation.
I have learned so much
from doing service pro-
jects, Varady said. It has
helped me with my self-
confidence and it makes
me think of other people
besides myself.
Blue expressed similar
feelings, Whether its
through working with
young children, the elder-
ly, animals or the envi-
ronmentyou begin to
feel the positivity growing
within yourself and those
you are interacting with.

Bravo to the Dietrich
Childrens Theater for an-
other grand production.
This past weekend they
wowed us as they brought
the Japanese folk tale The
Mouses Marriage to the
Dietrich stage. I loved it
when the cast interacted
with the audience and had
them learn Japanese words.
We would like to thank di-
rector Jennifer Jenkins and
the cast - Laurel Radzieski,
Bryan Thompson, Doreen
Tillman and Rich Ryczak
for all of their hard work
and energy. Rich also did an
amazing job of adapting
this story for the stage. We
would like to thank the
Pennsylvania Humanities
Council for sponsoring this
production. Our next pro-
duction will be held on
Founders Day weekend and
the Dietrich Childrens The-
atre will present The Gifts
of Wali Dad.
A few days prior to the
production, the Tunkhan-
nock Public Library hosted
a story time called Tales
from Japan in conjunction
with our production of The
Mouses Marriage with
Fiona Powell. Fiona spun
stories about two Japanese
frogs, a young Japanese
artist who drew cats and
shared the story of I Am
Tama, Lucky Cat by Wen-
dy Henrichs. There is noth-
ing quite like listening to a
story told to you by an ac-
claimed storyteller.
This weekend the Dietrich
will host another event for
children and families. On
Saturday, May 5 at 11 a.m.
the Dietrich will present the
annual free movie showing
of The Jungle Book. All are
invited to enjoy this family
classic. Admission will be
free. Popcorn will be free.
And soda will be free. You
cant beat that. Am I right?
This special showing is
presented in loving memory
of Jeeterbug from the
Kintner family. Tickets can
be reserved by calling
570.996.1500 or will be
available at the door while
they last.
The following day, Sun-
day, May 6 at 3 p.m., classi-
cal guitarist Jay Steveskey
will be back to treat us to a
concert of Classical Guitars
Greatest Hits! I cant wait.
We will experience music
by the great Spanish master,
Andres Segovia, the Span-
ish Romanticism of Isaac
Fernando Sor, Argentine
Tango Nuevo of Astor Piaz-
zolla and more! Many of

WhenMichael Swansonwas first
introducedtoglass blowingas a stu-
dent at Keystone College inLa
Plume, he was intriguedbyit. As he
learnedmore about the art, he said
he foundits possibilities tobe
limitless.
That is howone might also
describe his glass creations, not
just inthe physical sense of the
limit- less shapes, colors andshadows,
but inlookingbeyondtothe emotions of
the work. Swansonsaidhis pieces are usu-
allyabout relationships, emotions and
memories of moments intime.
WhenI lookat the glass, he said, it
makes me thinkof stuff that has happened.
Especiallywithhis sculpture pieces, he
saidit amazes himhowmuchcancome
froma single moment intime. Relatingthat
tolife, he said, Youonlyget one shot at
things, andthenyoure done.
He saidpeople are what inspire great
artists, andhe receives goodvibes along
those lines at the glass blowingstudioat

Keystone College, where he does his work.
After graduating fromthe college in 2006, he
returned in 2010 to work as the studio tech for
its glass program.
Swansons glass artwork has been featured in
various local galleries. His latest pieces will be
on display at NewVisions Studio and Gallery,
201Vine Street, Scranton fromMay 4 - 18.
An opening reception will be held for First
Friday May 4 from5 - 10 p.m. Attendees will be
able to enjoy refreshments, listen to live music
by Italian Singer Emile Rivera, and meet the
artists, including Scratchboard Illustrator Bri
Hermanson and Camera for a Cures Photog-
rapher Timmy Walsh, as well as Swanson.
Swanson said the aspects of his art that usu-
ally most capture the attention of viewers at the
galleries are the colors, shapes, shadows and
delicacy of the glass.
Perhaps some sets of eyes will even see deep-
er into the glass and be reminded of similar
emotions to those poured into the work by the
artist.
The shape, movement and distance all seem
to impact me, Swanson said of his sculptural
glass in his short bio for NewVisions. Even if
I dont reach a literal meaning, it speaks to me
on a deeper level. It reminds me of things I have
felt, even if I couldnt express or understand
them. I can never fully express howstrongly I
feel about the people in my life. It is only nat-
ural for me to see connections of that with my
glass.

magic due to illness. We wish
her a speedy recovery. Marys

impossible to fill her shoes.
The Library Board of Trust-
ees would like to send thanks to
our many patrons and friends
who made the Spring Book and
Bake Sale such a success. We
are currently taking donations

zines, DVDs and more in antici-
pation of our Fall Book and
Bake Sale, which will take place

tions for the Third Annual Herb

of twin brothers, Shiva and
Marion Stone, who were born in
Ethiopia and reach adolescence
just prior to revolution in their
country. Both study medicine,
one remaining in Ethiopia and
the other
becoming an intern in New
York City. The reader travels
between the two countries and
becomes
intertwined in the twins lives.
Newfaces continue to appear
at our MahJong group, which
meets on Mondays at 10:15
a.m., and Bridge tables, which
meet on Tuesdays at 10:15 a.m.

aria Middleton, original-
ly fromClarks Summit,
will embark on a bicycle
trip across the United States
beginning June 7 to raise aware-
ness and funding to help stop
oppression in
Southeast
Asia. Mid-
dleton and15
teammembers
will travel
more than
3,200 miles for
eight weeks
riding on a
Northern Route fromSeattle,
Washington to NewYork City.
The trip will bring themthrough
Central and Northeastern Pa.
Middleton is teaming up with a
nonprofit organization called
Venture Expeditions, an adven-
ture based organization that
provides ways to help raise
money for different causes all
around the world.
She attended the Abington
Heights School District through
her youth and graduated from
Abington Heights High School
in 2005. Upon graduating, she
pursued a degree at Penn State
University in Recreation Park
TourismManagement, Adven-
ture- based tourism. After grad-
uating in 2010, she accepted an
Outdoor Education position in
Northern California teaching
environmental education in the
Redwood forest where she has
worked and resided for the last
year and a half.
Middleton began volunteer-
ing in a youth group at Our
Lady of the Snows Church in
the summers during high
school, participating in Habitat
for Humanity and did a lot of
work at a recreation center.
I really enjoyed it and my
service just progressed from
there, she said.
Over the last two years, Mid-
dleton has traveled to two differ-
ent countries doing mission
work. She traveled to Quito,
Ecuador in college and South
Africa. She spent a month in
South Africa helping run both
residential and day programs for
impoverished area children,
providing meals and recre-
ational programs mixed with
mentoring programs.
I really enjoyed being able to
reach out to people outside this
country by giving theman op-
portunity to live life froma

fter winning the
powerlifting event in
the NAPF Arnold
Sports Festival Champion-
ship in Columbus, Ohio,
Clarks Summit native Steve
Mann prepares for the
USAPL Mens Open Na-
tional Powerlifting Cham-
pionships and an opportuni-
ty to qualify for the world
championships.
Mann squatted 832
pounds, deadlifted 644
pounds and benched 628
pounds en route to his first
place finish at the Arnold
Sports Festival Champion-
ships, with a total of 2,104
pounds lifted among the
three events.
Ive had a good year,
Mann said. I have four kids
and Id been working a cou-
ple jobs. My wife and I
worked our way out of debt
last year, so I finally got rid
of my secondary job and
Ive been able to get more
focus and more sleep.
In July of 2011, Mann
competed in the NAPF
North American Champion-
ships in Miami, Fla., where
he tallied a combined total
of 2,026 pounds in the pow-
erlifting event.
I was right around the
2,000 total for about three
years before the event in
Miami, Mann said. At the
Arnold Sports Festival, I put
about 70 pounds on my total
in one calendar year since
Ive been able to get a little
more rest and focus a little
more on my training.
Mann will travel to Orlan-
do in the summer to com-
pete in the national cham-
pionships for the first time
since 2007. The winner of
the national championships
qualifies for the world
championships. The top
three finishers in the world
championships automatical-
ly qualify for the World
Games in the summer of
2013.
I like competing against
the top guys and I like in-
creasing my number, Mann
said. I dont want to do it at
an event that doesnt chal-
lenge me, so the challenge is
really where its at- whether
its at a world champion-
ships event or a World
Games event.
Mann also stays away
from performance enhanc-
ing drugs.
I like to compete at a
drug-free level whether
other countries or athletes
choose to do whatever they
want to try to get themselves
there, Mann said. I could
always look at my accom-
plishments and know that I
did it in the purest way.
Mann works for Geodis as
an IT project manager and a
contract employee for IBM.
Mann also directs events. In
2011, Mann directed two
local events at the Hilton
Hotel on Adams Avenue in
downtown Scranton.
I actually direct more
events than Ive lifted,
Mann said. We ran colle-
giate nationals and filled the
Hilton for four nights. We
also pulled in about

W
hen Tayler Oster-
hout was three
years old her
mother took her to a tod-
dler tumbling class. Be-
fore long, coaches started
to comment on her talent.
In the fall of 2009, at
age 7, Tayler started com-
peting. The time commit-
ment and practice sched-
ule increased significantly,
which meant changes in
other aspects of her life.
Gone were afternoons
playing in the yard and
visiting friends homes.
Homework now had to be
done quickly and effi-
ciently to make time to
get to the gym on a nearly
daily basis.
She improved steadily
and rapidly, winning her
first title of All-Around
Champion for the entire
state of Pennsylvania in
her first season.
Recently she completed
her first season training at
United Sports Academy in
Dunmore. United Sports
Academy is owned and
operated by former Olym-
pian Dima Raynova. While
the gym has produced
many champions, Raynova
stresses sportsmanship,
safety and the love of the
sport above winning. The
transition to the gym was
an easy one.
The team is great. We
all root for each other,
Tayler said. She is now
under the close super-
vision of Omar Egas, a
20-year veteran of coach-
ing who is a former Ecua-
dorian National and South
American Champion. Egas
has contributed to the suc-
cess of several Junior
Olympic National qual-
ifiers and Medalists, as
well as gymnasts who re-
ceived athletic scholar-
ships to top universities.
Tayler is a pleasure to
work with, Raynova said.
She likes to practice and
loves to compete, like no
other child. She has won
every meet she participa-
ted in this year. She has a
great work ethic and abso-
lutely enjoys the work.
Tayler competed in the
Level 6 Pennsylvania State
Championship April 14 in
Upper Dublin. There she
competed against every
other 10 year old in the
state who had successfully
qualified with scores
throughout the season.

Keith Gavin came two wins
short of reaching the London
Olympic games and finished
third at the U.S. Olympic
Trials in the 84-kilogram
mens freestyle wrestling
weight class Sunday in Iowa
City, Iowa.
Gavin, who was an unbea-
ten national champion at the
University of Pittsburgh, re-
ceived a bye into the quarter-
finals where he defeated
Quentin Wright of the Nittany

Middleton lists several
reasons for her desire the
bike across the country.
Working with a team
creates amazing strengths
and being able to do it in a
designated area has amaz-
ing results, she said.
When it comes to reac-
hing a more diverse de-
mographic and outreach-
ing to communities, we are
trying to go further to reach
more of the population. We
want to communicate and
spend time with neighbors
near and far by opening
communications and fur-
thering ways to be able to
help one another. While
bike riding, people recog-
nize the radical ways in
which we are trying to
reach out and help others.
Middleton hopes the
journey will help unite
people around a common
cause.
Its a huge opportunity
to become more of a com-
munity and help people far
and wide, she said. I
want to showpeople there
is hope.
She is looking forward to
meeting people and being
able to talk to themabout
howour neighbors live in
other countries.
Its something that we
really need to informpeo-
ple about and sometimes
may be overlooked, Mid-
dleton said.
Donations can be made
at ventureexpeditions.org.
You can donate online or
by check and also sponsor
an individual or project.
Middleton s personal
fundraising goal is $5,000.

This past offseason,
Semi-Professional Football
NEPA Miners worked to
recruit a competitive ball
club.
But what the fans may
not know is how equally
hard the ball club works to
find the best league in
which to play. The NEPA
Miners started the offsea-
son pioneering a new
league concept of the Elite
Football Association with
the Central Penn Piranha,
Philadelphia Phoenix, Le-
high Valley Storm and the
New Jersey Lions, as all
five organizations left Ma-
jor League Football.
The startup league was
forging ahead until last
week when the New Jersey
Lions closed operations.
The Lions departure forced
the hands of the other ball
clubs to go in another di-
rection.
The Central Penn Piranha
and the Lehigh Valley
Storm have left for the Grid
Iron Developmental Foot-
ball League and the Phila-
delphia Phoenix went back
to the Big North East Foot-
ball Federation. There are
close to 100 semi-profes-
sional leagues nationally
but only about five leagues
that would be a fit logis-
tically for the Miners.
The timing of this move,
travel, competition and
familiarity made the Re-
gional American Football
League (RAFL) the best fit
for the NEPA Miners. Fans
will be treated to two rival-
ry games versus the Elec-
tric City Chargers and the
Miners will also play the
New York Predators. The
RAFL also includes com-
petitive organizations such
as the Philadelphia Gators,
Delaware Bison, New Jer-
sey Bravehearts, Philadel-
phia Braves and more.
The Miners preseason
will begin in June with the
regular season kicking off
July 7. Visit www.RAFL-
.net for more league news

This summer, Tayler will
take a week away from her
training at United Sports
Academy to travel to
Stroudsburg to attend the
International Gymnastics
Camp. There she will train
with Coach Justin Long,
Olympic medalist and
coach of the University of
Illinois gymnastics team.
This will be her third
summer attending the resi-
dent camp. During a previ-
ous stay there she met an
idol, Shawn Johnson, who
won gold for the U.S. in
the last Olympic Games.
Tayler lives with her
parents Kim and Chris,
along with her 13-year old
brother Kyle, in Clarks
Summit. On the rare occa-
sion that she has free
time, she likes to have
sleepovers with friends
and play with her beloved
dogs. When asked why she
works so hard, Tayler
doesnt focus on future
goals or possibilities, its
all about the here and
now.
Because I love it.

In high school, Mann played
football and powerlifted at
Abington Heights. During his
senior year, Mann won every
high school event in which he
competed, including the
PSCPA High School Cham-
pionships under powerlifting
coach Claude Welcome.
Claude Welcome is a huge
influence in my life and I still
talk to him to this day, Mann
said. He works with kids in
all sports and tries to do his
best.
When he graduated, Mann
moved on to Penn State Uni-
versity where he majored in
business logistics and helped
rebuild the powerlifting team.
As a junior, Mann advanced to
the world championships
where he finished sixth.
Mann married his wife Jen-
ny in 2002. They have four
children. Mann said he doesnt
allow powerlifting to get in the
way of time spent with his
family.
My morning training is my
way of being able to do my
hobby when theyre not
awake, Mann said. I start
training at five oclock in the
morning or earlier and Im
done by seven so I can get my
kids some breakfast and get
them on the bus and go to
work.
Mann works out at Browns
Gym in Clarks Summit where
he met Brian Walsh, the gener-
al manager of Burne Honda in
Scranton. After meeting
Mann, Walsh admired his
work ethic in the gym and
offered to help raise money for
Manns trip to Orlando for the
national championships.
The community needs to
be aware when you have a guy
whos a good father and a
dedicated worker, Walsh said.
Hes one of the best in the
country or in the world at what
he does and hes potentially
giving it up for his family.
Somebodys got to make peo-
ple aware of people like this
around here.
Walsh said he received mon-
ey from several businesses.
I dont mind raising money,
but I dont want people to
think Im knocking on doors
asking for money, Mann said.
Hes trying to help me out so
I appreciate it.
Mann will compete at the
national championships June
24.

They first became involved in
volunteerismthrough Davids
career in banking. It came very
naturally. I used to work at
Northeastern Bank, which later
became PNC, and they encour-
aged us to get involved in the
community, he said. I took
early retirement and have done
many volunteer activities since. I
like to keep busy.
The Tresslers are not showing
any signs of slowing down soon.
I love helping the people, he
said. The Salvation Army
serves several needs. Its not just
in times of tragedy. They provide
services for homeless men and
women. They provide clothing to
people who need it, whether its
warmclothing in the winter or
for families who lose everything
in a fire.
The Salvation Army has
several activities that people
dont always associate with the
Salvation Army. They have a
programfor children, a youth
programthat they run, that pro-
vides evening activities for chil-
dren. They make sure those
individual families who need
help get it. They dont always
publicize, but they really do
provide a lot of charitable work
for people within the communi-
ty, he said.
The retired banker said he is
looking forward to the dinner
Thursday.
Its such an honor, he said.
Its a reaction of what we do in
the community. Imthankful to
the Salvation Army for recog-
nizing my wife and me. Shes
much more active than I am, and
deserves this.
Major Connell said she is
looking forward to the dinner as
well and hopes for a good turn-
out.
