Service 1st Federal Credit Union celebrates ‘50 Years of Friends You Can Bank On’ in 2025
DANVILLE — Service
1st Federal Credit Union is excited to announce a significant milestone in the credit union’s history. 2025 marks the credit union’s 50th Anniversary.
“We are looking forward to celebrating ‘50 Years of Friends You Can Bank On’ throughout 2025 with our members, volunteers, team and the community,” said Mike Thomas, President/CEO, Service 1st. “We are truly grate-
ful for our 46,000 plus members, their families and their businesses for the trust they place in us. We’re looking forward to celebrating with members throughout the year during a number of upcoming events.”
In 1975, Barbara Criswell, founding member and long-time Service 1st Board Director led the group of Geisinger Medical Center employees who identified the need for credit union services and rallied
SHULER FOOT CARE CENTER
support and involvement from their colleagues.
In the beginning, the credit union was run by volunteers who opened accounts at a table in the hospital’s cafeteria and later from one of the on-campus cottages.
“It was Barbara’s vision that initially sparked, what is now known as Service 1st Federal Credit Union,” added Mike Thomas.
Criswell retired from Service 1st’s Board of Directors last summer after serving as a volunteer in numerous and impactful roles for nearly 40 years.
Originally chartered on August 25, 1975, as Geisinger Employees Federal Credit Union, it’s also important to understand the timing of Service 1st’s Charter.
Mom, you are the best and always show us how much you love us!

was amid the Women’s Movement which covered a span of nearly 20 years from the 1960s through the 1980s. In the 1960s, women had won the right to open a bank account on their own; however, most financial institutions didn’t honor that right until 1974 when the Equal Opportunity Act was passed. The following year, would become known as the International Women’s Year, declared by the United Nations and marked by the World Conference on Women held from June 19 through July 2 in 1975.
“Barbara began a long-standing tradition by stepping outside of the box to start a cooperative institution that
would positively impact the financial lives of so many locally over the past 50 years,” said Thomas. “We’re committed to continuing this tradition and working with our members to achieve their financial goals. Our promise to our members remains to provide a lifetime of financial services to meet their changing needs, fostering a relationship of trust, dignity and
respect.”
To commemorate this milestone year, the credit union will be hosting a number of 50th Anniversary Member Appreciation events throughout 2025 and celebrating during their regularly scheduled fundraising events.

UPMC Cardiologist: Importance of Heart Health at Every Age
Throughout your life, it’s probably been true that your heart has never stopped. It works tirelessly to pump blood throughout your body day and night. This organ is vital to your life, and it is important to keep it healthy by reducing your risks for developing heart disease. Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the United States, so no matter your age, there are steps to take to care for your heart.
20s and 30s
This is the time to build a strong foundation for your heart’s future. Establishing healthy habits now sets you up to prevent future problems. Staying active for at least 150 minutes of moderately intense aerobic exercise each week strengthens your heart. Activities like walking at a brisk pace, cycling, or dancing for just a halfhour five days a week will do. Make it fun by starting your exercise as a new hobby and joining a group to possibly meet new friends who share your new interest. Prioritize whole foods like fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats. Limiting processed foods, added sugars, and salt improves overall heart health.
You hear it all the time, but quitting smoking and vaping is essential. These habits damage blood vessels and increase the risk of heart disease along with many other health
problems. Resources are available to help you quit.
Understanding your family history of chronic health problems can guide early screening and prevention. While these conversations may feel personal or awkward, they could be lifesaving.
40s and 50s
As responsibilities grow with age, health concerns might take a back seat to other life issues. However, regular monitoring and proactive management are key. Knowing your numbers, like your blood pressure, cholesterol, blood sugar, and body weight, is vital to heart health. Establishing a baseline and monitoring these issues with regular visits with your primary care doctor helps to catch issues early. Stress can negatively impact your heart. Mindfulness, regular exercise, and making time for your hobbies ultimately equates to prioritizing
Church events
your health. If it’s difficult to stay active, try your hobbies out during breaks or opt for family gatherings to spend time with loved ones while doing something together. Excessive drinking can raise blood pressure. Stick to the recommended limits: one drink per day for women and two for men, as different bodies metabolize alcohol differently.
60s and Beyond
Stay vigilant in maintaining the healthy habits you’ve worked to create throughout your life. Age is a significant risk factor for heart disease, but healthy choices make a difference.
Pay attention to any warning signs that something is wrong. If you experience fatigue, chest pain, or shortness of breath, it’s important to speak with your primary care doctor. Telling them what’s bothering you, no matter how little it may seem, could uncover something more serious going on. That’s why it
is also important to keep up with regular screenings.
Staying social can help decrease the risk for heart disease. Staying connected with family and friends or participating in community activities are great ways to defeat isolation.
Increasing your fiber intake at this stage with whole grains, fruits, and vegetables and limiting sodium and saturated fats is also a great way to continue your hearthealthy diet.
At every age and stage of life, your heart deserves attention and care. Small habits contribute to a healthy heart and lifestyle to keep you going for years to come.

Newly detected chronic wasting disease positives in Northeast PA
From PA Game Commission
The Pennsylvania Game Commission, in conjunction with the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture, is announcing two deer have tested positive for Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) in a new area of Pennsylvania.
The two deer, one hunter-harvested and one from a captive facility, were detected in Luzerne County. Both deer were adult males.
The Luzerne County detections are 40 miles from the nearest wild CWD detection. They will ultimately result in Disease Management Area (DMA) changes later this spring – the details of which will be released following the Game Commission’s Board of Commissioners meeting in April.
The captive deer that tested positive for CWD Dec. 16 was from a breeding deer farm in Luzerne County. Initial positive test results from the Pennsylvania Animal Diagnostic System Laboratory were confirmed in the USDA’s National Veterinary Services Laboratory in Ames, Iowa on Dec. 23. The Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture placed the farm under a quarantine order for five years. The order requires the farm to test any additional deer that die on the farm, and not transfer any deer on or off the farm. Any subsequent positive test results will extend the quarantine order
PA
requirements and restrictions for another five years.
Pennsylvania deer farms must participate in one of two stringent programs – the Herd Certified Program, or the Herd Monitored Program. The Herd Certified Program meets U.S. Department of Agriculture CWD standards and is required for any cervid farmer wishing to ship deer across state lines. Both programs require proper IDs; record-keeping on all animals moved on or off farms; annual herd inventories; reporting of CWD suspect animals and animals that die, escape or are stolen; maintaining a minimum 8-foothigh fence; obtaining permits to import animals from out-of-state; and other measures to monitor herds for disease. Only farms enrolled in the Herd Certified Program are permitted to move live deer across state lines, with official identification that will aid veterinarians in tracking disease origins in the event remaining deer die and test positive.
Chronic Wasting Disease programs in captive deer are managed by the PA Department of Agriculture and are necessary to help slow the spread of the disease and allow these businesses to operate.
An always-fatal neurological disease caused by a misfolded protein called a prion, CWD is a threat to deer and elk. It’s classi-
fied as a transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE) and is similar to scrapie in sheep, mad cow disease in cattle and CreutzfeldtJakob disease in humans.
CWD spreads through direct animal-to-animal contact, as well as indirectly through prion-contaminated environments. CWD-infected individuals shed prions through saliva, urine and feces, and infected carcasses contribute to environmental contamination. Once in soil, CWD prions remain infectious for decades. Therefore, feeding deer is strongly discouraged and is illegal within existing DMAs.
There is no evidence of CWD infecting humans or other species under natural conditions. However, much is still unknown about CWD, therefore the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends not eating the meat of a CWD-positive deer.
The Game Commission will host an informational meeting to answer any questions from the public. It is scheduled for Thursday, Feb. 27, form 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. at Penn State Hazleton, Graham Building Room 115, Parking Lot F. Penn State Hazleton Campus address is 76 University Drive, Hazleton PA 18202. Contact the Game Commission’s CWD Hotline at 1-833-INFOCWD, email INFOCWD@pa.gov or visit www.arcg. is/1G4TLr for more information.

Lycoming College welcomes South African troupe Thula Sizwe for WCCA endowed concert
WILLIAMSPORT —
The Lycoming College annual spring Williamsport Community Concert Association (WCCA) endowed concert will feature the South African troupe Thula Sizwe on Saturday, Feb. 15 at 7:30 p.m., at the McIver Rehearsal Hall in the Trachte Music Center.
Thula Sizwe: The Group Zulu will present an authentic snapshot of the Zulu culture and musical tradition, giving an American audience a reminder of when South Africa was on the world stage and freedom to sing was not guaranteed. Donations between $10 and $20 are suggested. The concert is free for Lycoming College students.
The concert, made possible by the WCCA Endowed Fund, is the third public offering resulting from the merger of Lycoming College and the WCCA. The relationship ensures that the legacy of the WCCA will endure, and that the music department at the College, as well as the local community, will continue to be augmented and further enriched.
Thula Sizwe, meaning “hush and listen,” is a South-African, 10-man singing and dancing troupe. The group uses a call-and-response acapella style called Isicathamiya, or “walk softly,” originating from tribal performances from the 20th century and evolving into work songs as men left their rural homes for urban work.
Formed in the 1980s,
Sizwe will also visit the Lycoming College Choir for a rehearsal and workshop.
“We are excited to host Thula Sizwe at Lycoming College,” said Ciabattari, “and we are proud to help continue the legacy of the Williamsport Community Concert Association to bring cultural enrichment to our community.”
Thula Sizwe created music together during South Africa’s apartheid, a period when unemployment was high and the group of black singers needed special permission to perform. Thus, music and language are integral not only to their work but to their lives; the troupe’s leader, Jabulani Abel Dlamini, comes from a family of musicians and speaks nine of his country’s 11 official languages.
In addition to its public performance, the group will meet with the College’s world music class, led by Lycoming’s William Ciabattari, Ph.D., associate professor and chair of the music department, for performance demos, a question and answer session, and a history discussion. Thula
The Lycoming College music program offers an enriching curriculum that is bolstered by numerous performance and professional opportunities, and a flexible course structure that allows students to design their own path to match their career goals and interests. More information on music for majors and non-majors is available at https://www.lycoming. edu/music/.
