“Insta-Worthy Moments” celebratedat Columbia’s graduation

Eastern York students reminded to love one another

BY CATHY MOLITORIS

When the members of the Class of 2023 graduated from Eastern York High School on May 31, the Golden Knights present heard speeches from three of their peers - valedictorian Jessica Lynn Rose, salutatorian Daniel Graham Slater and senior class president Cameron Elizabeth Wolf.

Jessica is the daughter of John and Sherry Rose of Hellam. At Eastern York, she was an executive officer of Student Council and served as president of the Interact Club. She also competed in Science Olympiad, played soccer and managed the football

and basketball teams. She plans to attend Wake Forest University to major in health and exercise science and biology on the pre-med track. Jessica’s speech talked about taking the life lessons learned in high school and applying them to the future. “Every class mattered,” she said, “but there was much more to be learned than just the content.” She advised her fellow graduates to acknowledge their support systems. “Be grateful for the people throughout your life who have helped you get to where you are,” she remarked. “Strive to do your best, but only compare yourself to your past self.”

Last year, Barry Strayer took a chance. He coordinated the first East Prospect Community Pride Car Show. “Last year was just a fun afternoon in the park to see if the community could support this type of event,” he recalled. “We anticipated having 40-plus (vehicles) in attendance. We had 78.”

Hoping to build on the momentum

Linda Eckman Wissler. “We asked them to prepare a one- to two-minute speech, and we selected three students to speak.”

The speakers were Ciara Ramos, Mercyangelis Gonzalez Morillo and salutatorian Mallory Conroy.

Ciara is the daughter of Michelle Ramos of Columbia and Julio Ramos. She said she was hesitant initially about speaking, but she’s

of last year’s show, Strayer is organizing the car show this year for Saturday, July 1. It will be held from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the East Prospect ball field at the corner of Meisenhelder Road and Sunrise Lane.

“This year is more structured,” Strayer said. “We will have a more cohesive area to display vehicles in the baseball outfield with plenty of room to grow the event.”

Gallery plans summer show

The Square Halo Gallery within The Trust Performing Arts Center, 37 N. Market St., Lancaster, will feature work from Christians in Visual Arts (CIVA) for its summer show. CIVA was founded to equip those called to the visual arts to flourish in their holy vocation. The gallery is open from 6 to 9 p.m. on First Fridays, by

appointment, and during events at The Trust.

After more than 40 years in operation, CIVA’s board of directors has decided to dissolve the organization effective Friday, June 30. This summer exhibition at Square Halo recognizes some of the artists who pioneered the work of CIVA, as well as others who worked tirelessly

over the years to help it thrive, including Sandra Bowden, Edward Knippers, Guy Chase, Tyrus Clutter, Allison Luce, Cam Anderson, Ned Bustard and Wayne Adams.

Square Halo Gallery is a space for contemporary art inspired by the Christian faith. To learn more, visit www.squarehalobooks.com and look under Gallery.

All articles must contain a contact name and telephone number.

This workshop will be taught by Historic Sugartown’s resident bookbinder, Ramon Townsend. Townsend studied traditional bookbinding, printing, and related crafts under the Master and Journeymen Bookbinders and Printers in Colonial Williamsburg in the 1970s and ‘80s. After leaving the shop, Townsend continued bookbinding, making and repairing books, and conducting workshops.

The fee covers all workshop materials, and members of the .918 Club will receive a discount.

Space is limited to six participants. To register, visit heritage pressmuseum@gmail.com.

Car show

The car show is open to all types of vehicles. “Last year, we had stock, modified and project cars; two- and threewheeled motorcycles; offroad vehicles; and an Army troop truck,” Strayer shared.

Dash plaques will be given out to entrants, including a commemorative inaugural plaque for the 2022 show for the first 50 people who are registering again for this year’s show. The first 100 people who register for this year’s show will also receive the 2023 dash plaque.

Trophies will be awarded for Best in Show, Stock Class and Modified Class, voted on by show entrants.

The event will also feature plenty of food, Strayer said. Food trucks will include TriCounty BBQ, G’s Concessions and Sitler’s Catering, and Scout Troop 20 will pro-

vide homemade baked goods. Music will be provided by Karaoke by Miss “T.”

Strayer emphasized that the car show is a fundraiser for East Prospect Community Pride, an organization that promotes events throughout the year for residents. The group hosts outdoor movie nights, a Memorial Day parade, a town Christmas tree lighting and more.

“Enjoy a fun time with the family in the ball field, with food, music, a playground for the kids and plenty of like-minded car enthusiasts,” Strayer said.

glad she tried out. “Something just called me to do it,” she recalled. “I said I’d take a chance, and I did.” Her speech focused on what the various moments throughout high school meant to her and her classmates and all of the things the Class of 2023 has gone through. At Columbia, Ciara was active in the theater program. She plans to attend HACC, Central Pennylvania’s Community College for two years before transferring to a university.

Mallory is the daughter of Michael and April Conroy of Columbia.

“The purpose of my speech was not to preach to my classmates how to be successful,” Daniel said. “Instead, I opted to encourage them to embrace some core values. ... I advised them to always contribute their utmost effort to everything they do, even if that means facing great difficulty or failure.”

As for advice for his peers, Daniel remarked, “A person’s

social network is one of his or her greatest tools in life, and networks can only be built upon strong connections that must start somewhere. On that note, always seize a good opportunity when you see one. Work extremely hard for what you want, and for what you know will help elevate others, but be patient for the results. Good things come to those who wait ... while working hard.”

Celebrate with Marietta Fireworks

BY CATHY MOLITORIS

If you go to see Marietta Fireworks this year, be prepared to be wowed. “This is the biggest show we have done yet,” said Gary Schatz, who has been organizing the event since 2018. “We have scripted the show to be 35 minutes plus.”

Schatz explained that the show can be “scripted” because the majority of it is now electronic, meaning the fireworks are programmed and shot off with a remote. The show will also still include some manual fireworks as well, he noted. “We’ve been

working on transitioning to more electronics over the past three or four years, and this is the second time we’ll be doing a lot of electronics,” Schatz stated.

The fireworks will begin at approximately 9:15 p.m. on Saturday, July 1, in War Memorial Park, 344 E. Walnut St., Marietta. “We say ‘approximately’ because it’s completely dependent on the conditions,” Schatz explained. “If it’s not quite dark or it’s raining, we will have to adjust that time until it stops raining.”

Before the fireworks display, people are invited to a celebration at Community Bible Church, 331 Anderson Ferry Road, Marietta. It will include family activities, food trucks and live bluegrass music from Ironwood Drive Band. The church makes a perfect viewing spot for the fireworks, Schatz said, noting that people can also watch the display from War Memorial Park.

Marietta Fireworks is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization, and it relies on donations from the community to operate. “We are an all-volunteer organization,” Schatz remarked. “No one takes any salary. We have about 40

Individuals and projects from around Lancaster County were awarded for their understanding and support for good planning, the planning process and places2040, the Lancaster County Comprehensive Plan.

The Lifetime Achievement Award was presented to Mary Wickenheiser from Columbia Borough. Wickenheiser has provided Columbia Borough with distinguished and committed service for 23 years. She has served on borough council, the planning commission, Columbia River Park Committee, Lancaster County Solid Waste Authority Citizens Advisory Committee, the Safe Harbor Citizens Advisory Committee and the Northwest Lancaster County River Trail Committee.

The Distinguished Service Award was presented to Ray Marvin of Bart Township.

Selected entries were featured on local restaurants’ menus for a set amount of time.

A Leadership Award was presented for the project “A Long Walk to Water,” created by 92 third-graders at Clay Elementary School. Students at the school engaged in a unit on the importance of water and the global water crisis. Students developed a simulation of the effort and challenges of those needing water across the globe. A collection of $1,300 was donated to Water for South Sudan, and 72 gallons of water were donated to Ephrata Area Social Services.

An Achievement Award was presented for the Safe Harbor Bridge Rehabilitation project in Manor Township.

The entire 0.3-mile deck was replaced with 2,170 tons of concrete and wooden side rails at a cost of $9 million. The project was designed to be a showcase bridge with glass deck windows, bird viewing binoculars, an elevated viewing area and a pavilion. The bridge connects the 23-mile Enola Low Grade Rail Trail.

Bowling program offered at Leisure Lanes

BY ADRIAN ESCHENWALD

On June 6, Lee Keller kicked off the annual bowling program at Leisure Lanes Bowling and Golf Center, 3440 Columbia Ave. Meetings are held every Tuesday at 6 p.m. and will continue until the end of the 11week program on Aug. 22., with the exception of July 4. The program is open to people 18 years old or younger, who may register for a small fee at any point through its duration.

During each meeting, participants bowl three games. The first game is primarily instructional; students learn about various techniques to employ when bowling. The remaining two games also contain educational elements, but the scores are recorded. Each student’s score will be logged over the course of the program to highlight his or her improvement. “I’ve learned quite a few things through years of bowling that I want to pass along to the youngsters,” Keller

said. “The ultimate goal is to get them to be happy about what they did during the game.”

Accordion Group to meet

The First Lancaster Accordion Group (FLAG) will meet on Sunday, June 25, at Zion Church of Millersville, 317 N. George St., Millersville.

The meeting will be held from 2 to 4 p.m. For additional details, contact Sergey Semenov at 717875-2862.

One of Keller’s goals when he created the program two years ago was to attract more interest in the sport, as well as encourage students to compete on Hempfield High School’s bowling team. In the first year of the program, the meetings only entailed the two regular matches; Keller decided to add the instructional game the following year after drawing inspiration from coaches of bowling teams and meeting professional bowler Shannon O’Keefe. While visiting his son in Illinois, Keller bowled at the same lane as O’Keefe, who has won the Professional Women’s Bowling Association Player of the Year award two of the last three years. O’Keefe is also the head coach of the bowling team at McKendree University, and Keller has incorporated lessons he learned from her into his program.

Keller also has his own wealth of experience to draw from; he ran the junior bowling program at the former Columbia Bowling Alley for 15 years. Keller first became involved with coaching when his two sons joined the program, and he remained a coach after they left it. The Keller family is rife with bowlers, many of whom played on Hempfield High School’s team. Although Keller no longer bowls, he and his wife regularly go to Leisure Lanes for the high school’s home games. “I don’t bowl anymore, but I get my enjoyment from seeing the kids leave the alley with smiles on their faces,” Keller said. “I started working with some of the players on the team in the last year or two. Once they reach the limits of what I can teach them, I recommend a more advanced instructor.” For more information, email Keller at nippy.keller @gmail.com.

The People’s Shakespeare Project (TPSP) will present “The Merry Wives of Windsor” at LancasterHistory, 230 N. President Ave., Lancaster. Performances will begin at 6:30 p.m. daily from Wednesday, June 21, to Sunday, June 25.

Set in the mid-1950s, the play focuses on a group of people who gather at a resort near Windsor, Conn., for a take-down of Sir John Falstaff - played by Justin Hopkinswhose bad behavior demands a course correction. A pair of housewives - Mistresses Ford and Page, played by Eileen Daub and Nancy Pletcher, respectively - deliver Falstaff’s comeuppance, including a

dunk in the river and dressing up in a pair of horns.

The production is directed by Rachel Luann Strayer, who previously directed numerous outdoor plays for Ghostlight Productions in Clarks Summit. She is primarily a playwright, whose works have been produced across the country and in Canada.

This is TPSP’s third Shakespeare-in-the Park production at LancasterHistory.

The event is free, but a donation per person is requested. For more information, visit www.peoplesshakespeare project.org, call 717-468-9194 or email jeremiah@peoples shakespeareproject.org.

Through the program, students have a chance to hone their bowling techniques.
