Funding when it’s needed Old Forge District creates foundation BY JOSH MCAULIFFE SPECIAL TO THE TRIBORO BANNER

Funding is obviously crucial to any school district’s mission. Soon, the Old Forge School District will have another revenue from which to draw. The Old Forge Education Foundation, also known as The Foundry, was recently established with the idea of supplementing the district budget and allowing it to expand its offerings to students. Though the foundation will work alongside the school district, it will be a completely independent entity. Old Forge Junior-Senior High School Principal Christopher Gatto first broached the idea of a foundation when he was interviewing for the position in the summer of 2017. “In other districts, I saw that they have these educational foundations. Abington Heights has one,” Gatto said. “It piqued my interest, and it was definitely something I wanted to do.” The Old Forge School Board unanimously approved the foundation’s establishment in the fall, and since then Gatto has spent considerable time building interest in it among alumni, borough residents and business owners. The foundation now has an advisory council, with Old Forge alumnus Noah Katz serving as its president. The members drafted bylaws, and are now in the process of establishing a website and social media presence. Gatto goes to all of The Foundry’s meetings but is not directly involved in its admin-

istration due to his district employment. “I’m like the liaison between the district and the foundation,” he said, noting the foundation plans to have its first fundraiser in May, likely at Cusumano. Among other things, The Foundry will be used to help fund district technology, equipment, programs and facilities. Early goals will include getting Google Chromebooks for every student, and increasing funding for STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics) education, according to Gatto. Peter Quigg of Commonwealth Charitable Management has been hired to manage the foundation’s perpetual endowment fund. Commonwealth Charitable Management will accept money from individuals and organizations to create endowments, special project funds, Educational Improvement Tax Credit Program funds (EITC) and Educational Improvement Organizations (EIO) that will directly benefit district students. Each year, a percentage of the fund will be granted under the direction of the advisory council, which will perform an annual needs assessment to gauge the outstanding needs of the district. Meanwhile, a special projects fund will allow donors to direct tax-deductible donations to a specific project, and the EITC program and EIOs will allow businesses to support a wide variety of programming and improvements for as little as 6 to 7 cents on the dollar. The key to the foundation’s sustainability will be active involvement by alumni and community members who see the value it will bring to the district. “I think the idea is really catching on with people,” Gatto said. “There’s definitely an interest in it. The town of Old Forge is deepOld Forge Junior-Senior High School Principal Christopher Gatto will serve as the ly invested in the district, so I think they’ll liason between the district and the foundation. be more than happy to contribute.”

Kiss and tell

Cherry cookies a lip-smacking good treat BY GIA MAZUR Staff Writer

elissa Carestia is creative by nature, and every project — whether in the studio or kitchen — is a work of art. The Scranton resident has a knack for baking, a trait passed down from her grandmother, the late Dorothy Langbein, and she makes everything from elaborate cupcakes to cookies with a theme. Her recipe for Chocolate Cherry Cookies is no exception, as the red-hued treat goes along with Carestia’s role as a board member of Scranton Fringe Festival. “It’s always a production. I went to art school,” she said, laughing, inside the home she shares with her boyfriend, Tucker Hottes. “I have tons of cookie recipes, but Fringe’s whole branding is red, and Chocolate Cherry Cookies made perfect sense.” The recipe earned the performing and visual arts festival a $50 grocery gift card through Local Flavor Gives Back. Carestia noted the recipe — which is similar to Peanut Butter Blossoms, peanut butter-flavored cookies with a milk chocolate Hershey’s Kiss in the center — is very straightforward. Bakers should make sure to chill the dough before working with it to ensure it’s not too sticky. Carestia typically chills hers overnight, but she recommends letting the dough sit in the refrigerator for at least one hour. She also added that bakers should not make the balls too big; 1-inch wide typically is the perfect size.

SpeCial edition

Gives Back Local Flavor Gives Back unites Northeast Pennsylvania residents through food and generosity. Each week, we feature recipes from people or groups who give their gift card winnings to charity.

Be part of the Fringe applications for this year’s Scranton fringe festival — which runs from friday, Sept. 27, through Sunday, Oct. 6 — are open until Sunday, april 7. to apply or for more information, visit scrantonfringe.org/apply.

Carestia noted the festival expanded to year-round programming a few years ago, and it keeps in line with the nonprofit’s mission to remain communityminded with an eye on global arts. Scranton Fringe added the regional story slams to its umbrella and also hosts events throughout the year, including a comedy show that took place last month. On Friday, May 3, Scranton Fringe will be part of Scranton Area Community Foundation’s NEPA Match Day. For every dollar Scranton Fringe raises, the foundation will match the gifts, up to $1,000. Fringe’s mission is to provide a place for artists to perform new material or take a risk with a show or exhibit without a ton of overhead costs. The festival also gives the Scranton area a chance to experience unique music, theater, dance, film and visual arts for an affordable ticket price while bringing revenue to local venues and businesses. It’s good for Fringe and good for the community, Carestia said, which is just as sweet as a Chocolate Cherry Cookie. “We love to be a part of the community here in Scranton and in the Fringe world,” Carestia said. “We’re just doing what we think will benefit this area and its artists and audiences the most, and other festivals recognize us and see what we’re doing. That’s a pretty cool feeling.”

Carestia’s Chocolate Cherry Cookies mixed savory dark chocolate with sweet, tart cher ry. Just moist enough, the cookie still had a nice crunch along the bottom. While Local Flavor has tasted the peanut butter-andmilk-chocolate variety, the dark chocolate and cherry kind made for a tasty twist on the classic cookie. This year’s Scranton Fringe Festival, the fifth, takes place from Friday, Sept. 27, through Sunday, Oct. 6. Applications for this year’s performances are open until Sunday, April 7.

NOW HEAR THIS BY JEANIE SLUCK TAYLOR COMMUNITY LIBRARY

New audio books available at the Taylor Community Library:

This week’s focus: Dorothea Benton Frank. Frank was brought up in the area of South Carolina on Sullivan’s Island, a region that serves as the inspiration

for many of her stories. She graduated from the Fashion Institute of America in Atlanta in 1972, and worked in the fashion world for a number of years. She retired in 1985 after marrying her husband, and for many years, she was dedicated fundraiser for non-profit causes, while bringing up her children. After publishing her first novel, “Sullivan’s Island,” in 2000. It reached the top of the New York Times bestseller list. More novels followed. Over the years she has received honorary doctorates from The College of Charleston and Bloomfield College. In her spare time, she lectures on the creative process, goes fly fishing, enjoys cooking and traveling and reading, as she looks for her next big novel idea. Some of her books include: “All Summer Long” Enter the New York power couple, promi-

nent interior designer Olivia Ritchie and her husband Nicholas Seymour, an English professor and true southern gentleman. They are seemingly polar opposites, yet magnetically drawn together and in love for more than fourteen years. As they prepare to relocate to Charleston, Olivia, the ultimate New Yorker, has reservations about the promise she made to retire in the low country, where Nick wants to return home and lead a more peaceful life. They are moving north to south, fast pace versus slow pace and downsizing. Nick is ecstatic, Olivia is not. She can’t let Nick know that their finances are not what he thought. Her client list is evaporating, their monetary reserves are dwindling and maybe that house she picked out on Sullivan’s Island needs too much work. Thank God, for her assistant, Roni Larini, her right hand. As they find themselves pondering the next step of their lives, Olivia and Nick travel with her billionaire clients and their friends and are swept up into the world of the ultra-rich and explore the globe with a cast of zany eccentrics over one tumultuous, hot summer. All as Olivia grapples with what lies ahead for her and Nick. “Same Beach Next Year” A chance meeting on the Isle of Palms, one of Charleston’s most stunning barrier islands, brings former sweethearts, Adam Stanley and Eve Landers together again. Their respective spouses, Eliza and Carl, fight sparks of jealousy flaring from their imagined rekindling of old flames. As Adam and Eve get caught up on their lives, their partners strike up a deep friendship and flirt with an unexpected attraction of their own. Year after year, Adam, Eliza, Eve, and Carl eagerly await their reunion at Wild Dunes, a condominium complex at the island’s tip end, where they grow closer with each passing day, building a friendship that will withstand financial catastrophe, family tragedy and devastating heartbreak. The devotion and love they share will help them weather the vagaries of time and enrich their lives as circumstances change, their children grow up and leave home, and their twilight years approach. “All the Single Ladies” Three amazing middle-aged women are bonded by another amazing woman’s death. Through their shared loss they forge a deep friendship, asking critical questions. Who was their friend and what did her life mean? Are they living the lives they imagined for themselves? Will they ever be able to afford to retire? How will they maximize their happiness? And ultimately, their own legacies? A plan is conceived and unfurls

with each turn of the tide during one sweltering summer on the Isle of Palms. Without ever fully realizing how close they were to the edge, they finally triumph amid laughter and maybe even newfound love. “The Hurricane Sisters” Meet three generations of women buried in secrets. The determined matriarch, Maisie Pringle, at eighty, is a force to be reckoned with because she will have the final word on everything, especially when she’s dead wrong. Her daughter, Liz, is caught up in the classic maelstrom of being middle-age and in an emotionally demanding career that will eventually open all their eyes to a terrible truth. And Liz’s beautiful 20-something daughter, Ashley, whose dreamy ambitions of her unlikely future keeps them all at odds. Luckily for Ashley, her wonderful older brother, Ivy, is her fierce champion but he can only do so much from San Francisco where he resides with his partner. And Mary Beth, her dearest friend, tries to have her back but even she can’t talk headstrong Ashley out of a relationship with an ambitious politician who seems slightly too old for her. Actually, Ashley and Mary Beth have yet to launch themselves into solvency. Their prospects seem bleak. So while they wait for the world to discover them and deliver them from a ramen-based existence, they placate themselves with a hare-brained scheme to make money but one that threatens to land them in huge trouble with the authorities. So where is Clayton, Liz’s husband? He seems more distracted than usual. Ashley desperately needs her father’s love and attention but what kind of a parent can he be to Ashley with one foot in Manhattan and the other one planted in indiscretion? And Liz, who’s an expert in the field of troubled domestic life, refuses to acknowledge Ashley’s precarious situation. Who’s in charge of this family? The wake-up call is about to arrive. After a terrible confrontation they are forced to rise to forgiveness, but can they establish a new order for the future of them all? “The Last Original Wife” Leslie Anne Greene Carter is “The Last Original Wife” among her husband Wesley’s wildly successful Atlanta social set. His cronies have all traded in the mothers of their children they promised to love and cherish,’til death did them part, for tanned and toned young Barbie brides. If losing the social life and close friends she adored wasn’t painful enough, a series of setbacks shake Les’ world and push her to the edge. She’s had enough of playing the good wife to a husband who thinks he’s doing her a

favor by keeping her around. She’s not going to waste another minute on people she doesn’t care to know. Now, she’s going to take some time for herself in the familiar comforts and stunning beauty of Charleston, her beloved hometown. In her brother’s stately historic home, she’s going to reclaim the carefree girl who spent lazy summers sharing steamy kisses with her first love. Les will indulge herself with icy cocktails, warm laughter, divine temptation and bittersweet memories. Daring to listen to her inner voice, she will realize what she wants and find the life of which she’s always dreamed. “Porch Lights” This is a stirring, emotionally rich multigenerational story, a tale of life, love and transformation. A nurse returning to Sullivan’s Island from the Afghanistan War, finds her life has been irrevocably altered by tragedy and now must rediscover love and purpose with the help of her son and aging mother. “Folly Beach” A woman returns to the past to find her future. Will she find it or will pass up opportunities meant to take. What life has in store for her will be sure to delight and amaze the reader. “Bull’s Island” This is the story of an uncomfortable homecoming of a former Bulls Islander who plans to transform the unspoiled paradise for profit and her inevitable reencounter with the scion of a wealthy family whom she once was scheduled to marry until cruel innuendo destroyed their engagement. Will she find peace with herself and the residents of the island or will she once more flee to escape reality? “Full of Grace” The move from New Jersey to Hilton Head, South Carolina, wasn’t easy for the Russo family; difficult enough for Big Al and Connie, but even harder for their daughter Maria Graziella, who insists on being called Grace. At 31 and still, shockingly, unmarried, Grace has scandalized her staunchly traditional Italian family by moving in with her boyfriend Michael, though a truly great guy, is agnostic, commitmentphobic, a scientist and Irish. Grace adores her parents even though they drive her crazy and she knows they’d love Michael if they got to know him, but Big Al won’t let him into their house. So the stage is set for a major showdown which, along with a devastating, unexpected crisis and, perhaps, a miracle or two, just might change Grace’s outlook on love, family and her new life in the new South.
