PAFFA Members from pg 1 Hope Springs Farm hosts a program for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities and autism. Volunteer work on the farm is essential to the program, alongside the daily farm chores completed by participants of the day program called “Growers.” Growers’ daily chores include horticulture activities and animal care. They grow and care for a wide variety of plants, including asparagus, raspberries, cabbage, carrots, and many other types of vegetables and fruit. The horticulture activities are intended to provide a connection between Growers’ efforts and the results of growing something. They gain a sense of accomplishment and pride when they grow something they can eat and share with their family and friends. Horticultural therapy is believed to help improve cognitive abilities, socialization, language skills, and task initiation within adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities and autism. Growers learn to work independently and as a team, solve problems, and follow directions through this form of therapy. Animal care by Growers
Neighborhood
includes petting, grooming, walking, and feeding animals, as well as cleaning out stalls and pastures. Hope Springs Farm is home to two miniature horses, six goats, four sheep, five alpacas, three pigs, chickens, rabbits, cats, and more. Caring for the animals is intended to provide structure to the Growers’ days, as well as a feeling of pride and ownership. Developing bonds with animals is intented to help Growers develop a better sense of self-worth and trust, stabilize their emotions, and improve their communication, self-regulation, and socialization skills. Hope Springs Farm, 201 Trail Road, Hershey, was opened in 2005 by Nina and Neil Rovner for their daughter Mimi and other adults who have intellectual and developmental disabilities in the community. Today, more than 50 adults are enrolled in its day program. Growers also volunteer for organizations in the community, such as Meals on Wheels, the Humane Society, and food banks.

Fegley Represents Middletown in PIAA’s by Eric Pyles
The “Road to Hershey” from Middletown Area High School to The Giant Center is roughly nine miles but any Blue Raider wrestler looking to make that short trek must first take a longer, needed detour. Luke Fegley, fresh off his 113-pound silver medal win at the District 3-2A Championship, took that needed trip to Wilson High School for the PIAA-2A SE Regional on Friday March 1st and Saturday March 2nd. The result was another podium finish, this one earning the junior grappler a bronze medal and a coveted berth in the PIAA-2A Championships that kick off on Thursday March 7th. By far Fegley’s easiest match of the weekend came in his opening round clash opposite Williams Valley’s Mikey Myers. The Viking junior was unable to go, giving Fegley the easy forfeit victory. Things were understandable more difficult in the quarterfinals, with Fegley winning on the mat. The 4-1 decision over Biglerville’s Ethan Slaybaugh dropped Fegley into the semifinals where Central Catholic’s David Kreidler was waiting. Fegley suffered his only loss of the regional to the eventual second place finisher,
falling by a 4-2 final. It took Fegley 126-seconds to rebound from that loss with Camp Hill’s Christian Doi absorbing the frustration in a pinfall loss. The win sent Fegley to his final match of the weekend where Jace Beegle of Pequea Valley was waiting in the consolation championship. Fegley was able to outlast the Indian sophomore via a 1-0 final to earn the PIAA berth and SE Regional bronze medal. With that third-place finish in the regional tournament, Fegley was finally able to make that coveted trip to the Giant Center for the PIAA-2A Championships. His final weekend of wrestling for the 2018-2019 season kicked off on Thursday March 8th with a first round clash opposite Mifflinburg’s Gabe Gramly. Fegley’s time in Hershey ended up being not-so-sweet, starting with a first period stalling call that set Fegley on a path to a loss. Gramly added a first period takedown for a 3-0 lead heading into the second period. Fegley was able to make up some ground with a 2-1 scoring edge but that 4-2 mark ended as an 8-5 loss after Gramly’s four-point outburst in the third. Fegley rebounded in a major way on Friday morning with a 10-2 victory
over Line Mountain’s Mason Leshock. The junior collected points in all three periods with a pair of nearfalls accounting for the bulk of his scoring. His third period nearfall came with nine seconds remaining in the bout and led into a Leshock reversal that netted the Eagle freshman his only points. The season came to a close a short while later with a 4-2 loss to Cole Bayless of Reynolds in the third round of consolation matches. Fegley’s second and third period escapes left him short thanks to Bayless’ third period push. The fellow junior got to Fegley for a two-point reversal that flipped Fegley’s 1-0 lead to a 2-1 deficit before adding a two-point takedown that broke up the 2-2 deadlock. Fegley was unable to come back from that takedown, leaving him with a 40-6 mark for the season. Two other Blue Raiders joined Fegley in Reading but neither Ryan Berstler nor Joseph Spear will be made the journey to Hershey. Berstler’s SE Regional falls under the near miss category with a consolation quarterfinal loss ending the senior’s season one round shy of a PIAA berth. Berstler’s season is over while Octorara’s Seth Hoopes secured the PIAA berth with his 6-4 win. Berstler

did enjoy two wins in his three other matches at Wilson HS starting with an 8-3 victory over Isaiah Vizcarrondo of Faith Christian. Berstler’s 37th win of
the season came in his second-round consolation bout with Conwell Egan’s Greg Stevens. Berstler dominated his fellow senior to the tune of a 17-1

tech fall victory that lasted just five-seconds into the third period. In between those two wins was the match that knocked Berstler out of title contention, a 10-1 loss to the eventual bronze medal winner at 126-pound, Brandan Chletsos of Notre-Dame Green-Pond. Spear, Middletown’s final member of the SE regional contingent found the going much more difficult than his two teammates. So much so that the junior bowed out of the competition after an 0-2 start, leaving him with a 32-8 mark for the season. Spear dropped his first-round bout in the 138-pound fracas by a 10-7 count, falling to Notre-Dame Green-Pond’s Nick Vonelli. A 13-2 consolation loss to Hamburg’s Shane Strausser ended Spear’s shot at Hershey.
