Scout Meckes’ community project adds to PF Park
by Seth Isenberg
Sawyer Meckes of Boy Scout Troop 138, Jim Thorpe, is proposing to install a public bicycle repair stand at the Penn Forest Township Park as his Eagle Scout project. The stand has eight tools on cables (wrenches, screwdrivers,
etc.) and a sturdy tower to mount a bike upon via the seat or top tube during repairs.
He will also build two bike racks for the park. Details about the work stand are shown on page 3.
The project is sponsored by three local businesses:

Paving proceeds in Penn Forest
by Seth Isenberg
At their August 5 regular meeting, Penn Forest Township supervisors’ chairman Roger Meckes announced that this year’s paving projects for Penn Forest Township would get underway that week, starting with paving on Old Stage Road, then moving on to Behrens Road before finishing by paving the pipe crossing on Smith Road weather permitting. Citizens from Towamensing Trails have
been waiting for a recently replaced pipe crossing on Old Stage Road to get its asphalt cover. The stone and fill around the new pipe have been settling, and it is now ready for the work.
The township will buy 40 feet of 36” plastic pipe from Fry’s Plastic for $2,084 and the township crew will replace a pipe on Drake’s Creek Road that is collapsing. Township crews have been mowing at the township park in between road work.
Township attorney
Thomas Nanovic will look at rules for weight limits on township roads, because Kidder Township is putting weight limits on Henning Road and Old Stage Roads. Discussion centered on signs to alert truckers that would be placed on the approaches to these roads in Penn Forest Township.
In other business, supervisors agreed to donate $300 to the Jim Thorpe High School Olympian Marching Band.

Kidder Supervisors continue making safety upgrades
by Seth Isenberg
July’s Kidder Township Board of Supervisors meeting on the 23rd made quick work of the short agenda. The safety upgrade, which added cameras in and outside on the municipal building, now adds two 70” monitors for the meeting room. Cost for the monitors and installation of $5,980 was approved unanimously, as was buying a laptop computer to manage the system at $945.
The township will now have a citizen notification and alert system reaching
township residents and property owners’ cell phones and e-mails, with supervisors agreeing to subscribe to GoGov for $3,600 per year.
Other business included buying two new gas space heaters for the municipal building and two for the Schoolhouse in Albrightsville from Affordable Comfort Contracting, at a combined cost of $1,914. Supervisors accepted two lots with new owners off the Carbon County Tax Claim list – both in the Holiday Pocono development. The Camptel Poconos/ Maison Lodging property was
given an extension of its lot improvement subdivision plan to September 24, 2024. The month’s bills totaling $247,520 were approved to be paid. $44,559 went to fund the fire companies and ambulance, plus $9,863 towards Lake Harmony Volunteer Fire Company’s new truck; $42,137 returned money from escrow to Lisa Millspaugh; $28,589 went to Casella Waste for trash collection; $24,609 paid Highmark Blue Shield for health insurance for township staff; $22,794 went to the IRS for staff; $17,714

Curative amendment gets Kidder OK
by Seth Isenberg
Kidder Township held a public meeting on Monday, July 29, about the proposed curative amendment ordinance, which defines and regulates warehouse, distribution and truck terminal uses. It also adds to existing rules on minimum lot sizes and increases buffers.
Only three people signed up to speak. Beth Hurley of Love Kidder Township spoke first, in support of the curative amendment ordinance. Linda Christman of Save Carbon County spoke next, also in favor.
Opposed to the changes was attorney Michael Malloy,
representing the Blue Ridge Real Estate company (BRRE). He asked township supervisors to look at the long-term economic impact these new rules will have to the township. He asked for a study to be done.
In defense of the warehouses in place, or underway on properties sold by BRRE, he added that these businesses are “where they belong,” near to the Interstate.
With no other public input, the meeting was adjourned.
A short break followed the public hearing, then Kidder Supervisors returned and called a special meeting into session. The sole item
of business was to approve advertising the Municipal Curative Amendment ordinance. Supervisors Bruce Berger, Wilson Klotzman, Noel Torres and chairman Ray Gluck voted unanimously to advertise the ordinance as a public notice in The Times-News. The ads will start the 30-day period for additional comments. The new rules, once adopted, will not affect the existing warehouse or the warehouse under construction. The proposed third warehouse in northwest Kidder Township, is also underway so is grandfathered. The rules would apply to new projects.

went to pay township insurances.
In reports, township manager Suzanne Brooks thanked Harmony Tree Service for removing a section of a tree that had fallen across the township’s walking trail. Kidder Police report that a bogus police fundraising letter is reported to be circulating in Albrightsville.
There were 362 calls for police services in June. Regarding traffic enforcement, Kidder Township Police repost 67 truck inspection violations on Route 940 and five more on Route 903, 15 moving violations on Route 903 and six on Route 940, 10 STOP sign violations, 4 license violations, and 26 warnings issued. KTP’s five vehicles patrolled 10,746 miles in
June.
The Lake Harmony Rescue Squad responded to 50 calls in June.
Supervisors’ chairman Ray Gluck reminded the public that there was a public hearing on July 29 at 5 p.m. regarding the curative amendment ordinance. A special supervisors meeting followed the hearing to vote on advertising the ordinance.
Seth’S SightingS
It is fresh produce season at local farms. Over these past few weeks, we visited Burger’s Farm Market in Drums, Heckman’s Orchard in Effort, Sernak Farm outside Weatherly, and Snyder’s Orchard in Jonas to buy some fresh-picked produce and fruit corn, zucchini, cucumbers, tomatoes, spaghetti squash, peaches, nectarines, and some early apples. We enjoy some of these for our dinners.
50 years of marriage of friends brought us to a party for them held in the Jim Thorpe Ballroom on the 17th. Ruth and I joined with other friends from our place of worship to celebrate. We enjoyed a fine meal and a
little dancing. We’re into our fourth decade of marriage, and 50 years for us is within reach.
A couple of weekends ago, we were guests for a meal held out on the porch of a local home. We arrived to overcast skies, then rains came and went, with us tucked in nicely under a cozy roof. The woods were separated from the house by a large lawn, and it was possible to hear the rains coming as the drops first reached the trees before coming over the yard.
In between the rains, hummingbirds flitted toward two feeders. I got a good look at a few one sported a beautiful red breast. The others were duller in color.
by Seth iSenberg
I sighted a green feathered hummingbird flitting among flowers in our own back yard. Other sightings include some recently born fawns, and a couple of nice bucks, a hunting hawk, a heron in flight, and some foxes. We saw a rafter of turkey in Albrightsville, close to a trail that leads into Hickory Run State Park.
I had a close encounter of the wildlife kind this past week. I had parked our car and was listening to the late-night news from the BBC on WVIA-FM. When the news was done, I moved to open the car door, and there was a small adult skunk. Fortunately, the opening of the door with its lights and noise scared the
critter, which ran off into a neighbor’s yard. I feel lucky the noise didn’t cause it to raise its tail.
I have been counting down to the start of the para-Olympics on the 28th. The Paris Olympics were wonderful. I enjoyed watching all kinds of sports, and following the winning athletes and teams. The USA was tops in medals always good but it was also great to see the French athletes do well. Watching matches with a French team or athlete was electric. I hope Los Angeles can match the energy and excitement in four years.
I am also counting down to the NFL season. I continue as a long-suffering Patriots fan, but as I am a
Pennsylvanian, I cheer the Eagles first now. The Eagles look good, perhaps for a Super Bowl run. The Patriots will ideally have a winning season.
College football will also be a late August treat. I cheer for a variety of college teams, starting with Penn State (again as I cheer the Pennsylvania home team, and listen to games when possible). I will also be following a variety of other teams via their statistics.
As for baseball, I plan to follow it as the playoffs begin.
These cool nights have me thinking about how close fall is one more month. I’ve sighted a bunch of maple

trees that are showing some foliage reds and oranges. Some burning bushes are showing red already. I’ll take the show, but am not ready for raking season, as it’s still mowing season.
Looking over the next few weeks, there are some car shows to attend including on September 1 in the infield of Pocono Raceway, and September 7 at Lehigh Park in White Haven. The 14th and 15th is the Weatherly Hill Climb. The car shows raise money for local service clubs. The Hill Climb is free, but stop by a stand and buy some food. The stands are run by local churches, scouts and even the Weatherly Library (we volunteer at this stand)… so come hungry.
Looking further ahead, there’s the Bloomsburg Fair Sept. 20 to 28 and the annual Celtic Classic festival in Bethlehem Sept. 27 to 29. Weather permitting, we’ll attend the Fair Thursday or Friday evening to see the Mahoney Brothers perform. I’d love to take Ruth to see Bachman-Turner Overdrive on that Monday, but we work that night. We’ll get to the Celtic Classic on that weekend. More about the late September fun in the next Journal.
Best wishes to all for good health and good weather. Also hopes for peace in the Middle East, and elsewhere in the world.

New Initiatives: Pocono Mountains Sports, Entertainment & Film Commission and Pocono Film Office
by Tom Saul
The Pocono Mountains Visitors Bureau recently announced the establishment of the Pocono Mountains Sports, Entertainment & Film Commission.
Headed by Chris Barrett, President and CEO of the Pocono Mountains Visitors Bureau, alongside industry leaders Brian Bossuyt, Ben May, John Oakes, and Ralph Lucchese, the commission aims to transform the Poconos into a premier destination for sports, entertainment, and film productions. The commission’s flagship project is the Poconos Film Office, which Ralph Lucchese will oversee. Lucchese highlighted the region’s
untapped potential, stating, “The Poconos has an incredible creative community, and the resources and locations throughout the Poconos have yet to be tapped into.” Already, the office has attracted notable projects, including a Discovery Channel production and a major automotive commercial.
Chris Barrett emphasized the awesome economic benefits, noting, “This marks a significant milestone in our efforts to leverage the natural beauty and infrastructure of the Poconos to attract major events and productions.” Ben May added, “By promoting our strengths, we can build a sustainable future that benefits everyone in our community.”
Brian Bossuyt envisions increased visibility for the Poconos, “With the new commission, we aim to highlight these assets on a larger stage.” John Oakes underscored the region’s versatility by explaining the Poconos’ diverse venues and landscapes that uniquely position it to host a variety of events and productions.
Community leaders from across Carbon, Monroe, Wayne, and Pike counties join the commission, uniting to drive economic growth and enhance the Poconos’ reputation as a premier destination. For more information, visit www. PoconoMountains.com or contact the Poconos Film Office.

The new space is considerably larger than his former location on Route 903. Boomers has a large friendly bar, two seating areas and an outdoor deck. Boomers has a truly fine Sunday brunch buffet featuring all-you-can-eat and an omelet station. And there’s music Dale McCauley on piano from 11 to 2 on Sundays.
Chef Joe offers burgers, pasta, seafood and steak with a northern Italian flair.
He has over 40 years of experience, owning several restaurants from pancake houses to fine Italian cuisine.
A boomer himself, he lives here in Albrightsville.
Boomers Café and Grill is open Wednesdays through Saturdays for dinner, and Sundays for brunch and, coming soon, NFL games on the big screen TVs. Boomers is located on Route 534, five minutes west of the traffic light at Route 903 in Albrightsville. Look for the Camptel Resort sign. Welcome Chef Joe Marino and Boomers Café and Grill to our advertising family and thank you.
