Congressional candidates for 6th District seat share issues at chamber forum

Oxford School Board approves Houlahan vs. McCauley: A contrast in platforms, tenor new contract for teachers By Steven Hoffman Staff Writer

Chrissy Houlahan

By Richard L. Gaw Staff Writer In separate addresses that focused on the big-picture designs of their respective campaigns, Democrat Chrissy Houlahan and Republican Greg McCauley, candidates for the Sixth Congressional District seat in Pennsylvania, served as keynote speakers at the Southern Chester County Chamber of Commerce’s Fall luncheon on Oct. 18 at

the Mendenhall Inn. Held before more than 150 leaders in business, non-profit service organizations and politics, the forum served as a campaign stop for two candidates who are less than three weeks away from an election that will decide who will next occupy the seat that will soon be vacated by Republican Ryan Costello, who in March declared that he would not seek a second term to the office he has held since

2015. Citing personal and political reasons for his decision, Costello has left the door open to two possible successors: Houlahan, the Air Force veteran and former business leader who has become the “rock star” model for a large band of first-time, mostly-female candidates seeking to turn the U.S. House blue; and McCauley, a local tax attorney and businessman, whom Continued on Page 3A

The Oxford Area School District has reached an agreement with the Oxford Area Education Association on a new teachers’ contract for a period extending from July 1, 2018 to June 30, 2022. The School Board unanimously approved the new collective bargaining agreement at its meeting on Oct. 16 after a lengthy negotiating process between the school district and the teachers’ union. The membership of the Oxford Area Education Association had already voted in support of the deal. Ryan Maule, a teacher at the Hopewell Elementary School, serves as the president of the Oxford Area Education Association.

He said that both sides were professional and cordial during the negotiating process, and he thanked superintendent David Woods, business administrator Brian Cooney, and the school board members who served on the negotiating committee for maintaining a high level of professionalism and civility throughout. The agreement includes a salary increase of 2.75% in each fiscal year. There is also an additional personal day included for all bargaining members. The employee healthcare contribution will be 7.5% for the first three years and 8% in the final year of the contract. During his report to the school board, Woods recognized an impressive achievement by Hannah Bartlett, a senior at Continued on Page 2A

Hearing witness says drive test results support need for cell tower West Chester and Chadds Ford Life Magazine

By Richard L. Gaw Staff Writer Throughout his three-hour testimony and cross-examination before the New Garden Township Zoning Hearing Board on Oct. 16, a design engineer stood by the results of a two-day test in April that he said supported the need for a telecomunications tower to be built in Landenberg, in order to strengthen the cov-

the tower, in favor of being redesigned to resemble a barn silo – known as a stealth silo structure – that would contain the cell tower and include protective fencing, landscaping and access to a main road. For nearly two hours, Christopher Shubert, an attorney with Riley, Riper, Hollin & Collagreco and the legal representative for EcoSite, Inc., asked his witness Andrew Peterson, a radio

frequency design engineer with DBM Engineering in Fairville, Pa., to provide the details of a drive test Peterson supervised on April 24 and 25 in Landenberg that assessed the service level of the wireless providers that are currently serving the area – T-Mobile, Sprint, Verizon Wireless and AT&T. Peterson worked on the testing and concluding report with representatives from King

of Prussia-based QuadGen Wireless Solutions, Inc. No representatives from the company were called as witnesses at the hearing. Peterson was deployed by Eco-Site, Inc., as part of the company’s application to install a 125-foot personal wireless services facility for T-Mobile Northeast, LLC on property owned by Arthur and Renee Santoro at 1511 Yeatmans Station Road in Continued on Page 2A

The Franklin Township Board of Supervisors took a first public look at the 2019 township budget at their Oct. 17 meeting. The board members discussed projects at Crossan Park and acknowledged that many projects have been put off for a long time. One of the projects being considered for next year is refurbishing the park’s bathrooms. Assistant township manager Jeff Eastburn has put together a catalogue of park projects that the board will use as a guide. Since the park loan will be paid in 2019, the .27 mills dedicated to the park will be reduced to .2 mils, with the .07 mills reverting back to the township’s general fund. These funds, along with the amount the general fund usually contributes to the park fund, will now go to the open space fund. The board also discussed

the reserve fund. The township, by continuing to put in $45,000 per year, will reach the fund’s goal in 2020. The board members discussed putting in a little less and putting that extra money toward something else. The consensus was to wait until details are available about the Chester County Conservation District grant for the repair of the Hess Mill Bridge. The board expects to authorize the 2019 budget for public advertising on Nov. 14, and it should be adopted at the board’s Dec. 19 meeting. Emergency services was also discussed. Chairman John Auerbach explained that the West Grove Fire Company’s expenses have gone up. With fewer volunteers signing up, the company is going to rely on paid help. Auerbach said he worked with a committee from the municipalities served Continued on Page 3A

By Richard L. Gaw Staff Writer On the morning of May 19, along the muddy and rainy trail of this year’s Kennett Run – a day more reserved for hibernating than for running – hundreds of participants in this annual Kennett Square tradition made their way past a supportive community that had come to cheer them on. Several high-fives were exchanged, and chants of encouragement were heard from Walnut Street to State Street to Anson B. Nixon Park. If the first wave of the mission and purpose of the Kennett Run is defined by these moments, then it’s the race’s second wave that completes the entire circle of a concept, begun nearly 30 years ago, that has given more than $1 million Photo by Richard L.

Landenberg. Referring to the findings of the test, Peterson told Shubert there was a service gap in cell coverage among the wireless providers who provide service in the township, that he estimated to encompass 8.7 square miles. He identified the gap area to be bound by Good Hope Road, Doe Run Road and Little Baltimore Road to the north; North Star Road, Crossan Road, Doe Run Road and Thompson Station Road to the east; Chambers Rock Road to the south; and New London Road and Flint Hill Road to the west. Peterson said that the gap contains 25 miles of thruways and 20 miles of neighborhood roads, 839 total parcels and 764 residences in Pennsylvania, and 1,171 parcels and 1,007 residences in Delaware. The purpose of the drive test, Peterson said, was to assess the ‘real-world’ radio frequency, strength and quality of service that the subscriber experiences on the day of testing. The test, he said, also used 8 phones in the test vehicle that placed test calls to determine their rate of connectivity. Placing calls from the vehicle, Peterson said, better emulates what a typical driver experiences when he or she makes a call from his or her vehicle. The test included 283 total cell phone calls, 147 of which attempted to reach T-Mobile users within the area. Of those, 11 didn’t go through: Eight were dropped calls and three were ineffective attempts. Translated, that’s 7.4 percent of the calls made in the testing area that were considered adverse, which Peterson said is in excess of the case law reli-

ability threshold, which is set at 95 percent. Service providers tend to set their ideal successful call rate at about 98 percent. Of the service providers tested, T-Mobile had the lowest percentage of adverse calls, while AT&T and Verizon Wireless registered the highest percentage. “Today’s subscribers expect their wireless devices to work, anywhere and under any circumstances, although practically, that’s not always possible, for a variety of reasons,” Peterson said. “My drive test was a comprehensive benchmark test that included all of the carriers and their frequencies. We felt that it was appropriate to look at everything. The courts have established that in order to prove a substantial gap in coverage, we need to demonstrate that there are adverse caller rates at more than five percent.” The test was chosen to be done at a time of the year when the trees in the area were largely devoid of leaves, Peterson said, because its results would not be impacted by the presence of foliage. Eco-Site, Inc. is challenging the validity of the township’s zoning ordinance because they claim it violates The Telecommunications Act of 1996; is unduly restrictive and fails to provide a fair share of use for personal wireless facilities; is invalid and unconstitutional; that the township’s height limitation of the proposed tower to not exceed 40 feet in height is exclusionary; and that the ordinance fails to adequately provide for personal wireless service facilities throughout the township. For the last ten months,

the Eco-Site application has been challenged by several residents who live on Beeson Court, Evans Drive, McCormick Drive, Nivin Lane, Quartz Mill Road, Watson Mill Road and Yeatmans Station Road. From the time the zoning application hearing process began earlier this year, those given “party status” have cross-examined Shubert’s witnesses, in an attempt to prove that there is no need for a cell tower in the proposed location. One of these residents, John Kuhn, is being represented by attorney Marc D. Jonas of the law firm of Eastburn and Gray, PC. After a short recess and a cross-examination by two members of the Zoning Hearing Board, Peterson fielded several questions from residents Teal Rickerman, Julie Rickerman, Gerry Green and Eric Baker. They focused their questions on the dimensions of the communications gap that Peterson’s drive test identified, the range of its effectiveness, and how inadequate cell phone coverage is defined. Peterson was also crossexamined by township attorney Mark Thompson. “My question is, which came first?” Thompson asked. “Was it the existing service gap or the drive test? How did you determine where to perform the drive test?” “When we’re evaluating the radio frequency environment for a service provider, we do so knowing where the existing T-Mobile sites are established,” Peterson said. “I prescribed that we drive all of the roads in the areas between them.” In referencing a map of the test area, Thompson ques-

According to a press release from the school district, approximately 34,000 Commended Students throughout the United States were recognized for their exceptional academic promise. These students placed among the top 50,000 scorers of the more than 1.6 million students who entered the 2019 competition by taking the 2017 Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test. Bartlett, the daughter of Yvonne and Scott Bartlett, is a member of National Honor Society, president of the National English Honor Society and a member of the high school team in the Chester County Academic Competition.

She is pictured with, from left, school board president Joseph Tighe; her father, Scott; high school assistant principal Dana Douglas; and Oxford Area School District superintendent of schools David Woods.

Dr. Margaret BillingsJones has been keeping the school board updated on the efforts to complete the new comprehensive plan. Pennsylvania school districts are required to have comprehensive plans. A committee comprised of various stakeholders in the district has been tasked with developing strategies for everything from curriculum development and how to improve student achievement to school safety and program needs of students. At the Oct. 16 meeting, Tami Motes, the principal of the Penn’s Grove school, outlined how the staff is working to address some of the goals in the areas of student achievement on standardized tests, incorporating technology into the

curriculum, and school safety. The full Comprehensive Plan will be open for review for 30 days at the Administration Building. The school board approved a series of personnel items on the agenda, as well as the second reading of some policy revisions. The Oxford School Board will hold its next work session on Tuesday, Nov. 13. The next regular meeting will take place on Thursday, Nov. 20. Both meetings will take place at the Administration Building at 7 p.m.

difficult thinking to do, but you have to draw the line somewhere. Geographically speaking, it’s customary to define that by roadways, but once we suspect the gap in service, we’re then tasked with determining the adverse calls within that gap, and that’s how the courts have decided how gaps are established.”

The conditional use hearing will be continued on Nov. 7, beginning at 6:30 p.m. at the New Garden Township building. Sebastian said that it is her hope that the hearing process will conclude by the end of the year.

Houlahan vs. McCauley... Continued from Page 1A

the Republican National Congressional Committee identified as one of the party’s “young guns” — candidates they have high hopes for in the mid-term election on Nov. 6. Identifying herself as a fellow businesswoman and entrepreneur, Houlahan pointed out her eclectic background that began when she served as a captain in the U.S. Air Force, following her grandfather and father in what she called “the family business.” After moving with her family to Chester County, she became the COO of And1 Basketball in Paoli, a basketball apparel and footwear company. “It was my privilege there to grow quality, good jobs where everyone had health care,” she said, “including families, where everyone had four weeks of vacation, where everyone had 40 hours a year of community service, and where we focused five percent of our profits on philanthropic efforts, because everyone needs a good education.” She then spoke about her time as a public school teacher in North Philadelphia. “I’m hopefully showing you a continual line of service,” she told the audience. “I believe that defending your country, or serving your community by creating great jobs, or serving by educating our next generation, is what we all are asked to do as adults in our community, and that our government should be asked to do the same thing. “I believe, frankly, that our government is not doing that now, and I’m hopeful that I’ll take my service background and real-world experience to Washington.” Houlahan then segued into the tenets of her campaign platform, beginning with seeking ways to provide quality, affordable healthcare. “It’s clearly the single biggest issue that we have in our community,” she said. “I’ve been been running for Congress for about 650 days, and I’ve seen that it’s our biggest issue. It’s something that everyone – business owners, employees and my kids and retirees –

by the fire company for more than a year to get a funding formula that was fair to all municipalities for ambulance coverage. This formula uses number of runs and population, not appraised value of the properties served. The township has been working with Medic 94 to come up with a fair funding formula and hasn’t been able to reach an agreement, since Medic 94 works with 17 municipalities. Currently, Medic 94 uses appraised real estate value for their calculation. Work is continuing to find a more agreeable funding formula. The township has agreed to pay Medic 94’s full request for 2019. Township manager Joan McVaugh reported that there are six zoning issues in the township. An abandoned home at 3327 Appleton Road, which sits in the historic district of Kemblesville, has been the subject of ongoing discussions. Fines have been imposed on the owner for three of the property’s five violations. Supervisor Donna Dea summarized the Oct. 4 meeting of the Planning Commission, which contin-

are asking for.” Believing that access to healthcare is a right, Houlahan said that the Affordable Care Act “is being strangled on the vine,” and needs bi-partisan solutions, including public options and opening up avenues for government to negotiate with Big Pharm on stabilizing prescription costs. Houlahan then shone light on the impact the growing labor shortage issue will have on the local economy, particularly in the mushroom-growing industry. She proposes a comprehensive, bi-partisan immigration plan that allows people to come to the U.S. to fill those job openings, and to develop methods of providing educational opportunities that train individuals for those required jobs. Perhaps the key reason that has brought Houlahan to this stage of her campaign – where she holds a comfortable lead in several polls, including The Cook Report – was never mentioned in her remarks, but it does appear on her campaign literature. “After serving in the Air Force, creating quality jobs in Pa., and teaching in North Philly, I never thought I would run for office,” it reads. “But after President Trump was elected, I knew I had to continue to serve my country and fight for my community.” From the time Houlahan announced her candidacy, her campaign has hitched a ride on the collective wave of women – 197 Democrats and 59 Republicans – who have qualified for the Nov. 6 ballot in House and Senate races, and while not all are speaking the same tune, most are running in opposition to Trump’s policies and the often divisive nature of his rhetoric. “I am campaigning for decency,” she told the audience. “We need to bring our country back together. We need to heal our nation, because right now, we’re divided like we’ve never been before.” If Houlahan had hoped to escape the Mendenhall Inn last Thursday without a whiff of the accusatory rhetoric that has marked Trump’s presidency – she did not. Throughout his address, McCauley repeat-

edly attacked his opponent on a number of issues, and at one point, referred to Houlahan as having a “Socialist platform,” and called her a candidate who “has been bought and paid for by the Democratic Party.” As part of his address, McCauley referred to a 13-year-old report that linked Houlahan’s And1 company to the findings of a 2004 report by the Institute for Global Labour and Human Rights, that alleged Chinese factories owned by the company and the Taiwanbased Pou Chen Group were exposing employees to abusive working conditions. “Google it. ‘Sweatshop labor.’ All you have to do is look it up,” McCauley told the audience. McCauley then went after the source of Houlahan’s campaign contributions, telling the audience that 90 percent of her war chest comes from outside of the 6th District, and that a large bulk of it comes from unions, political action committees, the Democratic National Committee, as well as Minority House Leader Nancy Pelosi and Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren. “She’s going to bring Washington values here,” McCauley said. “I am the opposite. My funds came from here. Less than 10 percent came from Washington.” Calling himself a problem solver, McCauley said if he is elected to Congress, he will work to decrease the student debt crisis by proposing that Congress lower the interest rate for students loans from near its current 7 percent to 2.3 percent – legislation that if passed would cut student debt by 75 percent, which he said “will allow these young students to live the American Dream – buy a home, start a family and move on.” McCauley, a 35-year attorney and former small business owner, joined two of Chester County’s largest talking point controversies together – the immigration crisis in America and the need to fill jobs in the local agricultural industry – by proposing that the 25 million undocumented citizens in the U.S. be allowed to purchase work visas, that will allow them to remain in country,

ued the discussion on adding additional dwelling units to township homes. She stressed that the Planning Commission understands that people want to be able to move their parents or children into their homes and give them an independent living space. The commission is working to ensure that no unintended consequences occur with the passing of the ordinance. This discussion has been going on for most of 2018, and Auerbach said that he expects the ordinance will be ready for the board’s review by the end of the year. Paul Lagasse of the Historical Architectural Review Board said he recently attended the “Hallowed Ground Conference” on cemeter-

ies that contain African American Civil War veterans. He had hoped to find out who holds the deed to the cemetery at the corner of Hilltop and Church Hill roads. He reported there are more than 70 people buried there, and at least 10 are veterans. Lagasse said he discovered that Church Hill Road was named for the church – which was named Church Hill African Church -- and not named because there was a “church on the hill,” which has been popular opinion. Auerbach suggested that cleaning up the cemetery and restoring the gravestones could be an Eagle Scout project. Chris Perkins from the Wyndemere home owners association discussed his

The visa, McCauley told the audience, will allow these workers to “join the fabric of America, which will enable them to work,” he said. “It’s a compassionate solution to a very difficult problem.

It will bring $50 billion to $100 billion every year to the national revenue, without taxing the public.” McCauley’s platform also includes a considerable attention to cleaning up the healthcare industry, by way of lowering healthcare premiums, finding ways to increase quality care and eliminating fraud. In speaking about the “middle man” presence that has corrupted the American prescription drug industry, McCauley

used the example of the production of saline, which is made in the U.S. and sold in other countries for about the U.S. equivalent of $29 a container. “What do you think it is here?” he asked the audience. “Five-hundred and nine dollars.

Brooklyn playwright delves into lives of mushroom farm workers ‘Mushroom’ is in development for People’s Light By John Chambless Staff Writer The intertwined lives of those who labor in the region’s mushroom houses are coming to the stage as Brooklyn-based playwright/actress Eisa Davis writes “Mushroom.” On Oct. 19, Davis and a cast of professional actors sat in a meeting room at La Communidad Hispana in Kennett Square, reading the latest version of the play for nurses and staff members of the facility, as well as representatives of Kennett Friends Meeting. The aim of the private performance was to hear from the people who help mushroom workers every day, to get their reactions to the characters and the plot as it is written and rewritten in light of fast-moving changes in immigration policy. There is no date yet for the production to premiere. Davis was invited by People’s Light to come to Chester County as part of New Play Frontiers, a program that brings writers from across the country to learn about the region, inspiring works that focus on local issues, but which also resonate on a national scale. “Mushroom” could not be more timely, and Davis prefaced the script reading on Friday by saying the new version incorporated changes she made the night before. The process has been going on since 2013, when Davis began researching the mushroom industry and the people who work in it. She has toured mushroom growing facilities and spoken with the

families who are the backbone of the multi-million-dollar business. There was a sharing of the play at the theater in Malvern in 2015, and since then, there has been a much increased urgency in the issues raised by the work. “Mushroom” is told with flashes of humor, but always tempered by the hard reality of life in the mushroom houses and the political firefight over documentation of workers. Davis, a versatile actress, singer and playwright, handed out the excerpts from “Mushroom” to the large cast, saying, “Every time I tell people that I’m writing a piece about people who are picking mushrooms in Kennett Square, people are like, ‘What?’” she said, laughing. “This sharing of excerpts from the play is more of an introduction to the characters. It’s so crucial for us to be here and hear your responses. This whole process has been really meaningful over the past five years. Every time I come back to this project, I’m just struck with the power and beauty of all the people in the story that I’ve been able to become acquainted with, and then hopefully to reflect, in a fictionalized way.” The plot spotlights the personal lives of workers, but centers on a young woman who worked with her mother in the mushroom house, but is attending school and struggling to become a nurse. Living in the midst of the health problems affecting mushroom workers, she sees a need to connect the workers to reliable health care. Among the many local references is a recommendation

from one of the characters that an ill worker “should go see LCH” – La Communidad Hispana – for help. The nurses and administrators listening to the reading laughed at the line. There is a mention of St. Rocco Catholic Church as a religious base for the community. “There are 60 or 70 mushroom farms around Kennett,” one of the characters says. Scenes in “Mushroom” may possibly be performed alternately in Spanish and English, Davis explained. When Spanish is being spoken, there could be English supertitles projected above the stage. When English is spoken, supertitles could translate into Spanish. The entire community is represented in the varying viewpoints in the play – from Tyler, the young man who is reluctantly left at the helm of a mushroom facility, to a picker who has turned to drug dealing on the side to make ends meet. There’s a budding romance, harsh reality and a simmering undercurrent of resentment that the workers dare not express. At one point, the play focuses on the aftermath of an immigration raid. Tyler complains about the seizure of some of his vital agricultural workers, saying that ICE “had been leaving us alone. They know the deal.” The central character, we learn, is undocumented, although she has successfully negotiated her way through nursing classes. “I am undocumented. But I will care for you,” she says firmly at one point. During a powerful speech,

a character recites a list of questions that resonate. Among them: “Is America full of itself? Is America choking on itself? Is America cancelled? … Who is America?” During a break in the reading, as well as after the hour-long presentation, the LCH nurses and administrator agreed that “Mushroom” sounds like it is taken from their daily lives. “We care for those in the mushroom industry, and you’re talking about the reality of our lives,” one nurse said. “The things you wrote about are really happening.” Marcie Bramucci, the director of community investment at People’s Light, said that the process of workshopping productions in the community is a different way of working. “The New Play Festival residencies include sharings and community meetings, in addition to deeplevel research, so we have these

community touchstones,” she said. “For ‘Mushroom,’ this past August, we visited multiple mushroom farms and spoke with workers and owners, spent time at the Garage, and had lunch with the staff at LCH. We’re opening partnerships with key stakeholders for the piece simultaneous to the development of the play. It’s

about finding out what resonates with these stakeholders, as their engagement absolutely informs the evolution of the play.” More information about People’s Light is available at www.peopleslight.org. To contact Staff Writer John Chambless, email jchambless@ chestercounty.com.

Kennett Run... Continued from Page 1A

On Oct. 11 at the Genesis Healthcare atrium lobby, 44 Kennett-area service organizations were the recipients of $63,091 in grants from Kennett Run Charities, Inc., which was topped by a $15,000 grant to Anson B. Nixon Park Road and Trail Project that will go toward landscaping, paving and drainage improvements in the park. The gift-giving ceremony served to showcase the three key goals of Kennett Run: • The achievement of sustainable camaraderie among Kennett area service organizations and citizens, and the fostering of an esprit de corps among the ethnically, economically, and occupationally diverse groups that comprise the community. • The establishment of a fundraising vehicle that would net ever-increasing sums for expenditure to promote the general wellbeing and civic betterment of Kennett area residents, organizations and projects; and • The showcasing of the town of Kennett Square and its environs by drawing participants and spectators from the region, the nation and perhaps even the world. “These funds have an immediate and positive impact on the entire Kennett Square community” said Kennett Run Charities, Inc. President B. Christopher Daney. “We appreciate the respect that people continue to have for the Kennett Run, and what our board, our volunteers, our local police and fire departments and the Kennett Borough have done to put together a safe race.” Kennett Run Race

Kennett Race Director J.J. Simon, with Norman Quynn, Kennett Run Charities, Inc. treasurer, at the Oct. 11 ceremony.

Director J.J. Simon said that sponsorships of the event play a huge part in funding levels. “Kennett Run Charities was able to raise more funding than last year, despite the fact that we had poor weather on race day, and it was because of being able to acquire more sponsors,” he said. While Kennett Run Charities always attempts to make fair and equitable contributions to as many organizations as possible each year, some distributions are made to help a particular service group make it through tough times. When members read that Camp Dreamcatcher was the victim of a flood that had destroyed over $9,000 worth of supplies this year, the organization – which offers a safe community for children coping with HIV/AIDS – received a $1,000 contribution from Kennett Run Charities. Ask any member or volunteer with the Kennett Run and they will say that preparation for the next year’s race begins soon after the end of the current year’s race. Planning now for next year is no exception: The 30th annual Kennett Run will be held on May 11, 2019, and its theme will wrap itself around Mother’s Day weekend.

Simon said that the date was chosen from a usually busy Kennett-area event calendar. “We originally considered Courtesy photos holding the 2019 Kennett Run the Saturday after At a ceremony held on Oct. 11, the Board of Directors of Kennett Run Charities, Inc.

National Prescription Drug Take Back Day

Vote for candidates who prioritize healthcare needs of Americans

Help prevent drug addiction and overdose deaths This Saturday, Oct. 27, is the DEA’s National Prescription Drug Take Back Day. It is an opportunity for all of us to do something small to help prevent drug addiction and overdose deaths. National Prescription Drug Take Back Day was established as a way for people to safely dispose of unwanted, unused, and expired prescription drugs so they can’t be stolen or abused. So if you have any prescription drugs in the medicine cabinet that aren’t needed, this is an opportunity to ensure that they won’t fall in the wrong hands. In 2016 alone, 6.2 million Americans misused controlled prescription drugs. One in five high school students has abused prescription drugs, studies also show. The most common way for people to obtain the prescription drugs was from the medicine cabinets of their family and friends. According to some estimates, roughly 70 percent of all abused prescription drugs come from family and friends. The abuse of prescription drugs can lead to numerous problems, one of them being the use of illegal drugs, which are usually stronger and more dangerous than prescription drugs. Each day, 115 Americans die as a result of an opioid overdose. Such overdoses are now the leading cause of death for people under the age of 50. The National Prescription Drug Take Back Day is one way to help address the opioid crisis, and to help prevent drug addiction and accidental deaths from overdoses. Since the event was established in 2010, more than 10 million pounds of drugs have been collected. These collections have also helped to protect our water supply because the drugs and medications are properly disposed of. In Chester County, the amount of drugs collected at various points during these Take Back Days has increased in recent years— from 1,392 pounds in 2014 to more than 10,000 pounds in 2017. This Saturday, the Kennett Township Police Department will be accepting unused medications, as will the Southern Chester County Regional Police Department at its West Grove office. These are just two of the local police departments that will be accepting unused medications from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. While National Prescription Drug Take Back Day is important because of the attention that it brings to the need to properly dispose of unwanted prescription medications, and most importantly because it removes millions of pounds of drugs from our homes, it is hardly the only day when unused or expired drugs can be disposed of. The Chester County District Attorney’s Office, in partnership with the Pennsylvania District Attorneys Association and police departments throughout the county, established permanent medication collection boxes. These boxes offer residents the opportunity to safely and anonymously dispose of unwanted and expired drugs and medication. The drugs are dropped in locked boxes so that they can later be disposed of by law enforcement officials. There are also numerous locations throughout Chester County that have permanent collection boxes, including the following: Kennett Square Borough Police Department 115 North Broad Street, Kennett Square, Pa. 19348 Oxford Borough Police Department 57 North Fourth Street, Oxford, Pa. 19363 Southern Chester County Regional Police Department 385 Starr Road, Suite 100, Landenberg, PA 19350 A full list of the locations of the medication collection boxes can be found on Chester County’s website. There are signs that the tide is beginning to turn in the battle against drug addiction, particulary the use of opioids. After more than two decades of explosive growth, there are fewer opioid prescriptions being written because doctors are more aware of the dangers of the drugs. But the opioid epidemic is far from over, and it’s critical to simply get rid of any unused or expired drugs and medications.

Letter to the Editor: Throughout my career, I worked with employee benefits and saw first hand just how broken our healthcare system is. I know, professionally and personally, how unexpected non-covered healthcare expenses can decimate a family’s finances regardless of where you work or what kind of work you do. I also know how much time healthcare professionals must spend in claims administration

rather than in providing actual healthcare services. I know how expensive healthcare coverage is for employees and for employers, and how our current system limits job mobility and job growth. Recently I’ve had the opportunity to get to know Sue Walker, candidate for the Pennsylvania House District 13. We talked about healthcare—the need to simplify health care claims administration, reduce costs, and provide complete comprehensive coverage for

Pennsylvanians. There is legislation pending in Harrisburg (PA HB 1688, PA SB 1014) that would do all of these things. Sue took the initiative, spent a day in Harrisburg with Representative Pam DeLissio (who introduced the initial bill), to become fully informed about how this proposed legislation would help. We need a better approach to providing for the healthcare needs of Americans. Here in Pennsylvania we have an opportunity for improve-

ment. This November we can support candidates who put people before politics and vote for candidates who will represent us in Harrisburg. I know there is a better way and so does Sue Walker. She is a real go-getter, make-it-happen kind of gal. She has my vote this November. I hope she will have yours. Debbie Dintenfass Director of Benefits, University of Delaware (retired) Penn Township

Rep. Lawrence has been a reformer we can trust Letter to the Editor: I’m writing in support of John Lawrence for State Representative. John first ran for office on a reform platform, and even as the rest of the political world has run amuck, John has kept true to those promises. The truth is that both political parties have let us down, with elected officials from both parties having to resign from office in scandal and disgrace. In this crazy environment, even John’s opposition recognizes him as a man of integrity. John

leads by example. He has declined a state pension and a state car. He supports redistricting reform so that regular citizens, not politicians, draw new district lines. He does not take legislative per-diem payments to pad his salary, a practice in Harrisburg that politicians from both parties abuse. He has even put forth bipartisan legislation to drug test all elected officials. Against tremendous odds, John has taken on special interests in Harrisburg to stand up for all of us. He has been a leader in

exposing a sweetheart $50 million state loan at 1 percent interest to a politically connected out-of-state timber company to buy forestland in Northwestern Pennsylvania, when that money was supposed to go to fix broken municipal water and sewer systems. He’s stood up to question an unnecessary multimillion dollar renovation of the President’s personal suite at Penn State’s football stadium. His legislation to reform how the state borrows money and issues debt passed the House overwhelmingly

with strong bipartisan support. He’s also fighting to reinstitute a part-time legislature, and give people the chance to vote on shrinking the size of the legislature. As they say, talk is cheap, and a lot of politicians “talk the talk.” John Lawrence walks the walk, and has proven himself a reformer we can trust. I encourage you to join me in voting for John on Nov. 6. Laura Gregos A concerned West Grove resident

Walker understands the importance of protecting the environment Letter to the Editor: Though there are many reasons for my generation to be wary of the potential outcomes of the upcoming elections, perhaps no issue is of greater importance than the environment. Specifically, the possibility of continued and increased environmental degradation on all scales. Careless, short-sighted policy is leading to the many effects of climate change to visibly manifest throughout the country— Pennsylvania included. As climate change has progressed, Pennsylvania has seen a dramatic rise in annual precipitation, flooding, and days exceeding 90 degrees Fahrenheit. These changes, particularly the extended number of excessively hot days, are projected to negatively impact corn yields throughout the state, milk production, and the local flora that are sensitive to heat. Of course, the ability to actively address these changes requires an eye towards the long term. Unfortunately, most representatives in the state suffer from a sort of tunnel vision focused only toward what will gain financial support and a safe victory in the next election. A great example is Rep. John Lawrence of Pennsylvania’s 13th District. Rep. John Lawrence, who holds a 0% rating on the Penn Environmental Scorecard,

has demonstrated a continued desire to place the interests of the fossil fuel industry above those of Pennsylvanians and the environment. A more recent anti-environmental vote cast by Lawrence was HB 2154, a bill seeking to amend gas and oil drilling regulations in the state. Notably, the bill includes a repeal of the requirement that oil/gas drillers meet the minimum requirements outlined in the Safe Drinking Water Act, as well as a repeal of the requirement that the DEP will assess wells for their potential impact on public resources prior to issuing a permit. Votes such as this demonstrate an instinct to place gaining re-election and various short-term benefits over the (ideally more important) well-being of the state’s natural resources and citizens. Sue Walker, the Democrat challenger for Pennsylvania’s 13th legislative district, sees what so many Republican representatives in Harrisburg, Lawrence included, struggle to grasp—the idea that investing in the condition of our environment is the most important investment of all. She understands the environmental costs of our state’s policies and she’ll certainly bring us one step closer in right direction towards sustainability. Additionally, Sue Walker understands that preservation of open space and natural resources does

not have to come at the expense of economic growth in the district. I believe that this issue is given priority by my generation (millennials) because many of us are able to acknowledge that current pollution patterns have led to, and will continue to contribute to, a problem that seems increasingly less likely of having a solution. Eventually, the time will come for millennials to inherit this problem, and this search for a solution, and by that time there may

no longer be a solution that can realistically be reached. The time to act is now and that begins with electing representatives into all levels of government who also see that the health of the Earth and all future generations will always come before personal gain. On Nov. 6, I will proudly be voting for Sue Walker as the next representative for Pennsylvania’s 13th District. Michael Walter West Grove

Twelve Oxford High School musicians to perform in Rose Parade Most Americans experience the annual Tournament of Roses Parade on television, with the blue skies and sunshine of Pasadena, California helping us to forget the frigid New Year’s Day temperatures for at least an hour or two. Twelve Oxford Area High School students, however, will enjoy the 70-degree Southern California weather in person and in the most exiting way possible on January 1, 2019. Marching and playing in the nation’s most famous parade as members of the Cavalcade of Bands Tournament of Roses Parade Honor Band will be senior Quinton Hartert, tuba; juniors Jenna Benke, Julia Hartman and Miranda Nilan and sophomore Darrelle Zavala, all on flute; junior Rachel Peak and sophomore Caleb McCartney, trumpet; sophomores Gavrielle Goldie, front ensemble (mallets); C.J. EvansRalston and Bryan Brenneman, percussion battery; and freshmen Ryan Topmiller, alto saxophone, and Emily Regester, baritone saxophone. The Tournament of Roses Honor Band is coordinated by the Cavalcade of Bands Association, Inc., (CBA), a non-profit organization comprised of over 100 member schools. CBA sponsors marching band

field competitions in the fall and indoor guard and percussion units during the winter, with noncompetitive Jazz Band activities throughout the winter and spring. CBA first organized a Tournament of Roses Honor Band for the 2015 parade. The band features over 150 musicians from 19 high schools in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Maryland, West Virginia and Ohio. At the 131st Tournament of Roses Parade the band will perform several numbers as they march along the 5.5-mile parade route. The Oxford students were selected for the band after submitting video auditions along with an application and recommendation from high school band director Dr. Erin Kauppila. Brianna and Madison have played flute in their school bands since fourth grade at Nottingham Elementary School while Madison joined the marching band’s color guard as a freshman. As part of being selected for the band, the students are required to raise a portion of their expenses through fundraising. Since receiving word of their selection, the students sold roses and hanging baskets at the high school’s spring concert and plan several fall fundraisers to offset the cost of their Honor Band activities. In order to memorize and perfect the selections

they will perform during the parade, band members participated in two daylong rehearsals held at Unionville High School this past spring. Unionville also hosted a three-day band camp in August, and the band will have weekly practices up until leaving for California on December 28. “The music is a little more complicated than what the students are used to playing,” said Dr. Kauppila. Close to a million spectators will line the Tournament of Roses Parade route and millions

more will watch the broadcast in the United States and around the world. The Honor Band will also present a field show at Bandfest, an event centered on the bands performing in the Rose Parade, and will visit Disneyland for a special parade performance. There will be opportunities for sightseeing throughout the area during the band’s stay. “It will be a very busy schedule but all of us are extremely excited about the trip,” said Quinton Hartert. When the Tournament

of Roses Parade Honor Band appeared in the 2015 Rose Parade, three Oxford students were selected as members, including Madison McCartney in the color guard. Four years later, Madison’s brother Caleb will follow in his sister’s footsteps on the parade route. “My sister has been talking about being in the parade ever since she performed and especially since I was selected,” said Caleb. “She had a great time and made a lot of friends she still keeps in touch with. I’m looking

forward to the same experience.” Dr. Kauppila is rightfully proud of the four-fold increase in Oxford participants since 2015. “It was very exciting that as one of the smaller schools in the Cavalcade area for Oxford to have three members in the Rose Parade Honor Band,” she said. “To have a dozen students to be marching on New Year’s Day is amazing. It’s wonderful to have many more of our students have the opportunity for what is really a once in a lifetime experience.”

Strong second half of season suggests bright future for Kennett football By Steven Hoffman Staff Writer The Kennett Blue Demons started the 2018 season 0-4, but since then they have won four out of five games as they have made great strides under first-year head coach Lance Frazier. How good has the team been? Kennett’s last two wins have been shutouts. During those two games, Kennett outscored its opponents by a combined score of 82-0. The only loss that Kennett has had in the last five weeks was a hardfought 10-7 game against Unionville.

To put it simply, Kennett has been one of the better teams in the ChesMont League since the turnaround began on Sept. 21. The win over Oxford on Oct. 19 showcased Kennett’s growth on offense and defense. Even before the game started, there was a clear sign that Oxford was going to have a difficult time against the surging Kennett team. When the team captains went out for the start of the contest, Oxford only had one captain who was in uniform and ready to play. Starting quarterback Brett Kochmansky and lineman Sam Blevins were out with

injuries. Also missing from the lineup was Tim Faber, the team’s leading running back, so it was clear that Oxford would have a difficult time duplicating some of its successes this season without having the services of some of its key offensive contributors. Kennett marched 67 yards on its opening drive, taking a 7-0 lead when standout running back Garrett Cox scored from four yards out. On the Hornets’ first offensive series, the drive stalled when Oxford couldn’t convert a fourthand-short play near midfield.

It took Kennett two plays—an 18-yard gain by Cox and a 36-yard touchdown pass from quarterback Sam Forte to receiver Mitch Kosara to score again. Kennett was up 14-0 with 4:55 to play in the first quarter, but the Blue Demons were only getting warmed up. After the kickoff, Kennett made it 21-0 when Kosara picked off a pass around the 45-yard line and returned it for a touchdown. Kennett threatened to score again early in the second quarter, but Oxford defensive end Jay Morton recovered a fumble on the 6-yard line. Oxford picked

up a couple of first downs on the offensive series that followed, but Kennett’s defense once again forced a punt. The Kennett offense, meanwhile, continued to be highly effective. With 7:49 left to play in the second quarter, Kennett made it 28-0 after a 25-yard touchdown run by Cox. A few minutes later, Kennett’s defense turned in another big play, forcing a fumble deep in Oxford territory. Cox scored his third touchdown of the game by rumbling in from four yards out. It was 35-0. Kennett tacked on 10 more points in the second half to finish out the impressive

win. Kennett is now 4-5 on the season and could earn a spot in the District 1 playoffs after the Week 10 schedule is completed this coming weekend. Kennett added a game to its schedule for Friday evening, when the team will travel to take on Quakertown High School. Oxford’s record stands at 5-4 with a home game on Friday night against Bishop Shanahan. The Hornets could earn a playoff berth for the second year in a row when the seeds for the District 1 playoffs are announced. To contact Staff Writer Steven Hoffman, email editor@chestercounty.com.

Township changes its rental regulation ordinance By Richard L. Gaw Staff Writer The Kennett Township Board of Supervisors unanimously passed an amendment to a township ordinance at their Oct. 17 meeting, that clears the way for the township’s codes department to conduct inspections of rental properties. Under the current guidelines for Ordinance 279, it requires that a rental unit is to be renewed every three years, or unless there is a change of tenant at the property during that time. The definition of the word “tenant”

however, did not permit the township to inspect a rental property unless money was exchanged for rent, and the township was f inding that several business owners were allowing their employees to live at their properties for free, in exchange for employment or other situations. To clear up the confusion and better def ine the word, the definition of “tenant,” as it appears in the revised ordinance, now reads, “A person other than a property owner to whom a landlord grants temporary or exclusive use of land or a part

of a building, usually in exchange for rent, or other considerations.” The change in definition now permits the township to inspect all rental properties, regardless of the financial arrangement. In other township business, Township Manager Lisa Moore recently visited state representatives in Harrisburg to promote the township’s $1.5 million grant request it submitted to the Commonwealth Funding Authority, that if approved on Nov. 14, will be applied to the cost of constructing a roundabout at the Five

Lions lend a helping hand On Oct. 18, six members of the Avon Grove Lions Club and four members of the Oxford Lions Club conducted eye

screenings at the Jordan Bank School in Oxford. They screened 214 kindergarten students and let the students pick

a free children’s book to take home. The books were provided by the Avon Grove Lions Book Barn.

Points intersection in the township. The township has also applied for a grant with PennDOT for the project. The estimated cost of the roundabout project is $2.3 million, but Moore said that because two of the roads that enter the intersection are owned by the state, the township is hoping that PennDOT would pay for a portion of the project. The township is about to submit request for estimates for the conversion of the Parish and Pennock Trail, extending from Pennock Park to Hillendale Road, to a multi-surface

trail for pedestrians and bicyclists. The project is slated to begin next year. There will be a text amendment hearing before the Board of Supervisors on Nov. 7 at 5:00 p.m. to hear a proposal from a developer who is requesting too change cur rent township ordinances in order to make way for the construction of a mixeduse development on the Giordano property at the entrance to Ways Lane, that will include town homes, apartments and retail. Currently, the township zoning laws only

permit the residential or commercial development in that area, but not both. The township has not heard from PennDOT about a scheduled time it will make repairs to the now-closed Clifton Bridge in the township, but it did indicate to the township that the bridge is on its funded list of projects. The township’s police department will host a drug take back event on Oct. 27, from 10 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., at the township building. To contact Staff Writer Richard L.

Comedian with local roots coming to Kennett Flash By John Chambless Staff Writer Los Angeles-based comedian and playwright Chris Haas has roots in Downingtown, and he returns to the region for a standup show at the Kennett Flash on Nov. 3. With several projects in the pipeline, he doesn’t get as much time as he’d like to do live comedy, but he’s happy to be launching into several new directions. He spoke this week about what he’s been up to. You were back in the area two years ago at this same time. Is this a Thanksgiving family homecoming for you? Well, I won’t be able to stay until Thanksgiving, but every time I’m back, it’s great to see family and it’s a great excuse to eat copious amounts of Wawa food. You’ll be doing a show with four other comedians – Marc Huppman, Mallory Leonard, Steph Termini, and Melissa Kirkpatrick. Do you know them from the L.A. clubs, or are they from the East Coast? These are all local comedians from the Chester County scene, including the host, Melissa Kirkpatrick, who used to host a variety show in Phoenixville. Now she lives in L.A., and is kind enough to be my girlfriend. Since she’s the only likable thing about me in general, I

thought I’d have her in the show. What’s the gist of your play “To All the Lights in the Windows”? How did the idea come to you? “To All the Lights in the Windows” is a romantic comedy that takes place at a psychiatric hospital in Pennsylvania. It was originally a one-act play that I developed into a full-length play last year. The idea came to me as most of my ideas do, which is me looking for any excuse to have people from Pennsylvania talk back and forth with each other and fall in love with the wrong people. What’s the process of getting an original play staged? How did you find the Loft Ensemble to put it on stage? The Loft Ensemble is a 99-seat theater that produces classic and independent theater under the L.A. Stage Alliance. I have been performing comedy there for five years, and I’m also proud to be a company member of the theater. I submitted this show to the theater’s artistic committee and they couldn’t get the rights to “The Iceman Cometh” this year, so they decided to take a chance on one of my plays. Are you part of the cast, or producing/directing? I’m not part of the cast because the theater is very

demanding, in the sense that they like to hire people with acting talent. I’m not producing because my people skills are a notch below Voldemort’s. I’m not directing because – how should I put this? -- I wasn’t asked. How did the film project “Kill the Detectives” come about, and what’s the plot, in a nutshell? “Kill the Detectives” is an ensemble Gen-X murder mystery comedy. It is a tribute to the weird ensemble independent films of the mid-’90s. We like to describe it as “Clerks” meets “Clue.” What does “in preproduction” mean? Is the project a definite thing at this point? We are fundraising and crowdfunding and trying to find investors interested in the project. We have a cast and crew ready to go. It’s a sure thing, but just a matter of when. But then again, nothing in Hollywood is a sure thing, except plastic surgery. Are you the writer/ director? Yes. On this project I am the writer, director, producer and I even play a small role. If I knew how to sew or had fashion sense, I’d be making the costumes. Continued on Page 4B

Comedian Chris Haas has roots in Downingtown, and will be at the Kennett Flash on Nov. 3

New artists and styles at the Oxford Arts Alliance By John Chambless Staff Writer There are some new names and a nice variety of styles in the National Juried Exhibition at the Oxford Arts Alliance this month. The annual show brings together artists who are new to the area, and the show is always packed with some nice surprises. Erick von Hoffman’s “Orange With Bottle” is a classic still life that has an elegant treatment of surfaces and reflections. Next to it, Diane Cannon’s mixed-media “Discovery” is a flurry of flapping seagull wings, rock and surf that gets maximum energy out of its composition and vibrant colors. A detailed woodcut by M. Alexander Gray, “Mouth of the Tye River, Nelson County, Va.,” is a wonderful view of fields, river and trees that has all the skill of a Rockwell Kent. It got a third-place ribbon in the show. Robert Barrie Maguire gets the most out of the rust-orange tones in his oil of gears and rope, “St. Brendan’s Cove,” and Eo Omwake will have you pondering what’s going on in his monumental cactus

painting, titled “Self Portrait of Everybody.” The first-place winner is the triptych “One Night at My Window,” by Lisa Baird, that pulls together fantastic animals, people, and mysteries across three large panels. It’s vivid and a little unsettling and points to any number of dreamlike messages. On another extreme, Linnie Greenberg’s painting, “Ida Mae Quick Town Fair,” is a fun, nostalgic assemblage of iconic fair booths, a passing train, the suggestion of spinning rides, and a fascinating flat style that’s quite charming. “Mother’s Basket” is a beautifully painted still life of a basket in half-light by Joseph Krawczk that has a lovely texture in the wooden slats and the cloth draped on the foreground ledge. “Stingray,” a metal sculpture by Charles Wilmont, has a sinuous metal ray that juts out from the burnished metal background, and it seems to be floating in an endless sea. The highlights of the background shift and shimmer in the light as you walk past, enhancing the magical effect.

Director previews film with local ties at Uptown in West Chester

Zeke Zelker on the set of his multi-platform film, ‘Billboard.’

Billboard transcends the “normal” moviegoing experience. The story segues from radio to social media to live events to a web series, and a feature film. It will be screened on Nov. 26 at the Uptown Knauer Performing Arts Center in West Chester. Filmmaker Zeke Zelker calls this a “ c i n e • e x p e r i e n c e ,” entertaining audiences with multiple narratives told across various platforms where content moves across screens to live events enveloping the audience in a richer story experience. The film explores the trials and tribulations of what it takes to run an independent radio station, while the 25 episode web series, “The Billboard Sitters,” focuses on the four contestants who are in the billboard sitting contest. In the film, Casey Lindeweiler inherits WTYT 960 from his legendary radioman father,

only to discover that it’s on the brink of financial collapse. To right the sinking ship, Casey pulls out the oldest trick in radio, the wacky contest. His grand plan is to host a billboard sitting contest where four people will live on a catwalk in front of a billboard for the chance of winning a mobile home and “nine-sixty thousand” dollars. Unprepared for the spotlight, Casey rises to the challenge of running a business as he’s faced with relentless attacks from his competition, the local authorities trying to shut him down, the media’s interpretation of his contest, and mother nature. The project began with the creation of a radio station wtyt960.com, where bands from 49 states and 22 countries have uploaded their music to become a part of the story. Zelker’s team promotes contests to get the bands on the site more exposure as well as hosts live gigs around the

country. The film will be released nationally in April 2019. The story is inspired by a billboard sitting contest that took place in the early 1980s that Zelker recalls from his youth. His story is set current day. Zelker has dedicated more than 20 years to making films in the Lehigh Valley. “I have a lot of family history here. My family came here from Europe in 1883. I got tired of people bashing my hometown of Allentown when I was away from it, so I came back to make a difference,” he said. Billboard was completely produced in the Lehigh Valley, and more than 2,000 people worked on the project. The screening will start at 7 p.m. and following the film, there will be a Q&A panel with the filmmaker and local entrepreneurs. For more information, visit http://billboardmovie. com.

Where will it be shot? The film will be shot on location in North Hollywood and the surrounding area. The film takes place at the house of a producer who is a terrible person, and there’s a whole bunch of terrible people in Hollywood, so now I just gotta get one of them to let me film a movie in their house. Are you discovering how complicated the film process is? The film industry is unfair and weighted towards people with money and friends in high places. The art of making a movie is one of the hardest things you can do. Even the worst movies you’ve seen were difficult to make. Nothing about filmmaking is easy, but I stick with it because I literally have no other skills. Are there local Pennsylvania references in either the play or the film project? The play is littered with Pennsylvania references as

Susan Melrath’s second-place painting, “The Dream,” has a lovely textured surface of blended letters, curves, underlayers and shiny highlights, amounting to a crazyquilt of shapes. There’s a lesson to be learned in Joshua Schaeffer’s painting “Synergy” – a fork jabbed into an outlet that suggests an inevitable result. Among the smaller works, Margarete Noesner’s pastel, “Down Under,” is a very nice, shadowy u n d e r- t h e - b o a r d wa l k view. Picking up an honorable mention is Stacey Peterson’s “Pearl Perfection Box,” a lovely little silver box with latticed sides and a gleaming pearl on the top. There’s also a painted, life-size bust by Harold Kalmus, “MCB,” that has a haunting presence in the gallery. The Fourth Annual National Juried Exhibition continues at the Oxford Arts Alliance (38 S. Third St., Oxford) through Nov. 8. There will be a closing reception on Nov. 8 from 6 to 8 p.m. Gallery hours are Tuesday to Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Visit www. oxfordart.org for more information.

it takes place in a suburb of Philadelphia. The film is one of, maybe, five things I’ve ever written that doesn’t have a Pennsylvania reference. There was one in the first draft, but it got cut for time. In the meantime, standup is still a passion of yours. How regularly do you perform, given your other projects going on now? Stand-up is great because it’s an art form where you have total control. I don’t perform as much as I used to, but I usually do stand-up once a month. It’s so fun to come back to Pennsylvania and see old friends and perform to a home crowd. To support “Kill the Detectives,” visit: https://igg.me/at/ktd

Located across the street from the city’s police academy, the Youth Center opened its

doors in January 2016. The school started soon after with one student. There were six students the second year, and now there is a waiting list. The church’s Outbreak Youth Ministry conducts annual mission trips to El Centro to make building improvements, distribute food, help with the day camp and orphanage, homeless outreach, worship, and more. The Fall Fest also benefits Urban Promise in Wilmington, Del.

Wilmington, Del., across from Winterthur) as part of the church’s Vision 2020 Program. It is free and open to the community. During 2017, 345 people died of heroin overdoses in Delaware, with another 141 such deaths in Chester County. Teens and parents are encouraged to hear this presentation that intends

to break the stigma by representing the faces of addiction, and to start a conversation about drug and alcohol use between students and parents.

On Nov. 4, a benefit concert for the Garage Youth Center will be held at the West Grove United Methodist Church. Mel Leaman and his son, Toby, of the Philadelphia-based band Dr. Dog, will perform an eclectic selection of songs Mel has written.

A slow love song like “Tender Kiss” may be followed by booming call for racial justice in “Fences,” or a more subtle movement towards the faith perspective of “Melt Into the Cold.” In addition, William Rose, the director of operations at The Garage, and a professional musician, will open the show at 6 p.m. The concert is slated from 6:30 to 8

p.m. on Nov. 4 at the church, which is at 300 N. Guernsey Rd., West Grove. A donation os $10 is suggested. Some of the youth center members will be serving refreshments.

West Grove Friends reach out to help in Haiti By Alyce T. Denver In March of 2010, I heard an interview on NPR with a doctor in Port Au Prince, Haiti. This was three months following the earthquake which leveled a large portion of that city and killed over 200,000 people. Listening to that interview was one of those life-changing events which, if we are lucky enough, we get to experience. I emailed the radio station, requesting Dr. Jeudy’s contact information and in May he was at my home! We had quickly arranged for a small fundraising event that weekend, and he preached that Sunday. He told me afterward that was the first time he had to speak that long in English. During the time between the March contact and his arrival in May, we agreed to dream big. We dreamed of building a two-story, 14-bed surgical center on land he owned a few blocks from his practice. My dream for that weekend was to send him home with $10,000. He went home with $9,600! I was joined in the project with a teacher in New York who had been running soccer camps in Haiti for a few years prior to the earthquake. Opal Golden (the teacher) and I began the process of raising enough money to build the surgical center.

We also took teams of contractors and college students to clean up the original clinic (Clini Med I) which had been damaged in the earthquake and then to paint the interior of the new clinic. Through the generosity of many people around the country, the dream of a surgical center became a reality three years later. It now operates 24/7, with a rotating staff of doctors and nurses. Dr. Jeudy is an interesting man. He studied surgery in Haiti and is now on the teaching staff of that university. He owns and administers the original clinic (Clini Med I) which is now his outpatient center and Clini Med II the new surgical clinic. He also performs surgeries in two other hospitals in Port Au Prince. After becoming a doctor and beginning his practice, Patrick decided that he could not just treat patient’s physical bodies – he also wanted to minister to their spirit. So, he went to seminary and was ordained. In the years before the new surgical center was built, he preached in three different churches each month -- a different location each Sunday. With his expanded medical responsibilities, he decided he could not keep up with sermons, too. Last year, with donations from West Grove Friends Meeting

and friends all over the country, we raised $20,000 and had a container filled with medical equipment and supplies sent from Project Cure. All of the items (valued at close to $500,000) went to Clini Meds I and II, and to a dentist who rents space in the Clini Med I building. Sending that container had been a dream of mine for several years, and when it arrived in Haiti at Patrick’s clinics and he was able to get it out of port with minimal expense, we breathed a great sigh of relief. During my most recent visit, Patrick took me on

a tour around Haiti and a visit in the national power plant, which has four turbines, of which only one works supplying power to the entire country. But it keeps failing and can be down for days or weeks at a time. Consequently, during surgery a generator has to be ready for use at a moment’s notice. The current generator is old and is also beginning to fail. The need for a new one is critical. Dr. Jeudy has located a generator large enough to power the entire Clini Med II building in Port Au Prince. The cost is close to $25,000. In order to raise that

much money, we at West Grove Friends decided to host a fundraising event. Dr. Jeudy will be here for the entire weekend of Nov. 3 and 4, and is looking forward to meeting community members and sharing what life is like in Haiti. Among the many items for sale will be fine art, crafts, garage sale items, baked goods, antiques, musical instruments (we have someone donating a hammered dulcimer), and a silent auction for a gluten-free baking lesson, four yoga lessons, story time by professional storyteller Bill Wood, a

pie-a-monthm, and more. The sale will be open on Nov. 3 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., and Nov. 4 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. The public is invited to come to the Meeting house on Sunday at 10 a.m. to join our worship service. After a few minutes of silent meditation, Dr. Jeudy will be showing pictures of Port Au Prince and speaking about the current situation in Haiti. West Grove Friends Meeting is at 153 Harmony Rd., West Grove. For more information, contact Alyce Denver at 610-405-2819 or by email, alycetdenver@ yahoo.com.

Minarchi named to Family Promise National Affiliate Council

Gabrielle Farina of Avon Grove High School is the Lions Club Student of the Month for October.

Avon Grove Lions salute Students of the Month

At their meeting on Oct. 2, the Avon Grove Lions honored a Student of the Month from the Avon Grove High School and the Avon Grove Charter School. This is an ongoing program the Lions conduct from October to June. From Avon Grove High School, Gabrielle Farina has been named the Lions Club Student of the Month for October. She is the daughter of Madelyn Alvarino and Ed Farina of Lincoln University. Gabrielle’s list of school activities includes first chair cellist and section leader in the school Orchestra and Chamber Ensemble, treasurer of Tri-M Music Honors Society, Varsity Girls Tennis, and member of the Freshman Mentorship Program. Gabrielle is active

in the community by leading, organizing and registering more than 140 students for Avon Grove’s first Voter Registration Drive, and by helping in the process of placing dogs as the co-director of communications on Petfinder for New Spirit 4 Aussie Rescue. Her awards include Daughters of the American Revolution award for Outstanding Work in American History, excellence in Honors English Award (9th), String Orchestra Academic Award (10th) and she has achieved Distinguished Honors throughout high school. Gabrielle hopes to attend a liberal arts college somewhere along the East Coast, with a possibility of exploring the arts and humanities. The teachers who have influenced her most

are Mrs. Umile, Mrs. Worrell and Dr. Zook. At Avon Grove Charter School, the Student of the Month for October is senior Trevor Lease. For the past two summers, Trevor has volunteered more than 100 hours working with campers, and more than 16 hours of counselor training for 4H camp Abenaqua. Working with the campers and as a team with other counselors has taught him leadership skills, and how to work with others. He helped campers with games and other learning activities. He also helped serve meals and set up the camp for activities throughout the week. He plans to attend a four-year college to major in business/ entrepreneurship.

Trevor Lease of Avon Grove Charter School was named the Lions Club Student of the Month for October.

Susan Minarchi, executive director of Family Promise of Southern Chester County, has been selected to serve on the National Affiliate Council based on her leadership of the local affiliate that opened in 2015 to provide emergency shelter, meals and social services to homeless families. Since the program began in Southern Chester County, 45 families with 100 children, and 59 adults, have participated in the program, and 28 families graduated into sustainable housing. “Working closely with

the board, Sue’s day-to-day leadership has moved the local program from a startup in a converted convent in West Grove to a growing operation with a Resource Center in Kennett Square and network of 28 host and support congregations that house and feed families in the program 365 days a year with the help of hundreds of volunteers and many community partners,” said board president, Rev. Annalie Korengel. “She will make many valuable contributions on a national level, as she has in the local community.” This fall, Minarchi is

leading the expansion of the local program to families in the Octorara School District. The program currently supports families in Avon Grove, Oxford, Kennett Consolidated and Unionville-Chadds Ford school districts. New program services are supported by donations, grants and fundraising. The next community fundraiser for Family Promise “Evening of Promise,” will be held on Saturday, April 6, at Hartefeld National. For more information, visit www.familypromisescc. org.

Senate passes Barrar’s bill to authorize tow truck lights and increase driver safety The Senate voted in favor of a bill sponsored by Rep. Steve Barrar (R-Chester/ Delaware) that would better protect tow truck operators by authorizing the use of emergency lights to increase other drivers’ visibility. “There have been far too many situations where we’ve lost tow truck drivers after they were hit on the side of the road, just trying to do their jobs. This bill would increase safety by allowing tow trucks to be considered emergency vehicles in certain situations,” Barrar said. House Bill 1414 would authorize flashing yellow and white lights on tow trucks, yellow strobe lights for solid waste collection vehicles and mounted internal blue lights for volunteer firefighters. Lights are only to be used when towing a

vehicle behind the tow truck, rather than being securely positioned on the flatbed of the tow truck without any part of the vehicle being towed overhanging. The emergency lights cannot be used when brake lights, turn signals and operating lights are visible from the rear and not obstructed. The bill would also authorize solid waste collection vehicles across the Commonwealth to use a bright yellow strobe, visible from all directions, and would require that the strobe be active when stopped on a street and while collecting garbage, solid waste, recyclables and refuse while moving between stops at a speed not greater than 10 miles an hour. Lastly, the legislation would also permit emergency

lights and sirens on the vehicles of armed probation officers in a city of the first class. The officers are appointed by the court and are sworn officers with the power to arrest. They work closely with the Philadelphia Police Department, as well as U.S. marshals and the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Unlike the others, they are not currently able to participate in car pursuits because they aren’t equipped with necessary lighting. “I encourage Gov. Tom Wolf to sign this bill, which would better protect the lives of men and women as they do the important work of the Commonwealth and give their families greater peace of mind,” Barrar added. The bill now returns to the House for a concurrence vote.

CHESTER COUNTY PRESS

Students learn about agriculture and help Chester County Food Bank Horticulture students at the Chester County Intermediate Unit’s (CCIU) Learning Center and Child & Career Development Center (CCDC) are growing in more ways than one this school year. “We are so excited to further our relationship and work with Chester County Food Bank. For years we have grown produce in our garden boxes, which has always gone to the culinary shop at our campus,” said Mike Walls, horticulture instructor at the CCIU Learning Center. “This year, we are expanding our reach. Students are working with growers to start seedlings and grow lettuces in the aquaponics systems. Once harvested, the lettuce is delivered to food pantries in Coatesville.” Along with growing and donating the lettuce, students have also been

arranging flower bouquets to accompany their deliveries to the food banks. “We start by figuring out what colors we want for the flowers, then we grow them and make the arrangements. Helping others makes me feel wonderful,” explained Karina Castaneda, CCIU Learning Center student. The idea to grow produce in the greenhouse and partner with the Chester County Food Bank came from a CCIUwide organizational goal. Not only does this initiative help the community, it also has many benefits for the students. “Students learn best through authentic tasks and are able to transfer their learned social skills by working with community partners. The students can see the direct benefit to the community they serve,” explained Kristin

Gallahan, CCIU Learning Center principal. “The result is hands-on learning for students with the added bonus of our community receiving fresh produce that is grown locally.” The students’ hard work and dedication to harvest and deliver produce they have grown themselves has paid off twice so far this school year, and they don’t plan to stop there. Staff and students have plans to work collaboratively with the food banks and continue the donations throughout the year. Student Anthony Johnson has been diligently helping with the process and is looking forward to all that is to come, “I’m proud to be helping people. It makes me feel good,” he said. Students at the Learning Center spend half of their school day in academic

classes and the other half in their pre-vocational shop program. The academic program offers core subject areas, including language arts, social studies, science and mathematics that are

designed to meet the learning and educational needs of students. Additionally, eleventh and twelfth grade students have an opportunity to participate in a work experience program.

Students from 49 school districts, including all 12 in Chester County, attend the Chester County Learning Center. For more information, visit www.cciu. org/learningcenter.

Five Avon Grove seniors are Commended Students

Five Avon Grove High School seniors are receiving the distinction of Commended Students in the 2019 National Merit Scholarship Program. “These students represent some of the best and brightest students in the district. Their dedication to excellence in their academic pursuits is significant,” said Avon Grove principal Scott DeShong. The students being recognized are Alexander Coppens, Connor Gray, Rebecca LeStourgen, Cesar Rodriguez and Akhila Yalvigi.

This year, about 34,000 Commended Students are being recognized throughout the nation for their exceptional academic promise. Avon Grove High School Commended Students placed among the top five percent of more than 1.6 million students who entered the 2019 competition by taking the 2017 Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test. “The young men and women being named Commended Students have demonstrated

outstanding potential for academic success,” said a spokesperson for the National Merit Scholarship Corporation. “These students represent a valuable national resource; recognizing their accomplishments, as well as the key role their schools play in their academic development, is vital to the advancement of educational excellence in our nation. We hope that this recognition will help broaden their educational opportunities and encourage them as they continue their pursuit of academic success.”

Kennett Square Life formerly Kennett Square Today

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------The identity of a town can best be traced by looking at the diversity of its people, but there is something else that makes Kennett Square so special. It is a town of commerce and corporations, dotted by wide-open farmland and suburban communities, and accented with a beautiful village of stately old homes, and a place called State Street where the heart of the town beats the loudest. For the past few years, Kennett Square Today, and now Kennett Square Life, has captured that vibrancy within its pages, in a magazine uniquely targeted specifically to the more than 22,000 people who call Kennett Square their home. What we've discovered – in words and photographs – are profiles of people, events, businesses and trends.

9,400+ direct mail

We've also discovered a growing population and one of increasing affluence, where the median household income exceeds $65,000 annually, where 55% of families own their own home, and where the average value of a home is $370,000*. By extending your company's marketing campaign to include advertising in Kennett Square Life, your company is guaranteed to share its message with the people you need to reach, in two editions publishing in June and November. Tell your company's story, in Kennett Square Life.
