Donegal

Senior Expo will highlight resources and activities

BY CATHY MOLITORIS

When state Rep. Tom Jones heard about a Senior Expo in Lancaster County, he thought it was something his constituents in the 98th District would love. Rather than participate in a countywide event, Jones wanted to focus on local resources and services for seniors, so he’s hosting his own Senior Expo. It will be held on Friday, Oct. 20, from 9 to 11 a.m. in the social hall of St. Paul Church, 398 N. Locust St., Elizabethtown.

“Our goal is to have a great variety of local vendors, all of whom have something to offer seniors,” said Sharon Ogilvie, district office manager for Jones. “Here’s an opportunity to reach out to the people who gave so much, a chance to give back.”

Participating vendors will include United Churches Elizabethtown Area, the Elizabethtown Area Senior Center, the Elizabethtown Area Chamber of Commerce, Paramount Senior Living, Masonic Villages, Lancaster Barnstormers and many more.

“We’re going to have Next Step Downsizing as a vendor. They help people who are getting ready to move out of their homes,” Ogilvie said. “We’re also having Carrie Chapman and Annie Weiler, who are Realtors who specialize in seniors selling their homes.”

All vendors have a tie to the 98th District, which includes all of Donegal School District, all of Elizabethtown Area School District and parts of Lebanon County.

“We wanted to be sure we have a variety of things of interest to seniors,” Ogilvie remarked. “It’s not just focused on health or serious topics. We’ll have information on volunteer opportunities for seniors and ways for them to give back to the community. We’ll have

Junior Air Rifle program seeks participants

BY CATHY MOLITORIS

If you’re between the ages of 8 and 18 and you’re looking for a fun but challenging sport, check out the Junior Air Rifle program. A new session of classes will run on Saturdays from Oct. 14 through

Dec. 16 at the Mount Joy Sportsmen’s Association, 85 Range Road. The program will begin at 9 a.m., with the potential for separate sessions from 9 to 10:30 a.m. and 10:30 a.m. to noon, depending on the turnout, said instructor Tom Amlie.

information on resources and activities.”

She noted that Jones’ district covers 62,000 people, and the Senior Expo offers an opportunity for the congressman to continue to connect with constituents. He took office late last year, and although Jones is a government representative, Ogilvie stressed that the Senior Expo has no political affiliation.

“This is an event for everyone,” she said. “It’s for seniors, but if people want to come to get information for their parents, they are welcome. Everyone is welcome.”

The Senior Expo is just one of several community events Jones has participated in so far this year, she said, including a free shredding event this past spring, Memorial Day parades and even taking a turn in the dunk booth for Cornerstone Youth Center at the Elizabethtown Fair.

The Senior Expo will feature light refreshments as well as an interactive activity to encourage people to visit all of the vendors.

Ogilvie expressed appreciation to St. Paul’s for hosting the event, noting that the church is very community

Great things happen when women on a mission get together.

Lancaster County Women for Good formed last year with the goal of raising money for local nonprofits.

So far, the group has donated more than $23,000, with 284 women contributing to the effort.

Most recently, the organization presented a check for $7,000 to Arch Street Center at Lancaster County Women for Good’s quarterly Gather & Grant meeting. Located in

Lancaster, Arch Street Center provides support and services for adults living with mental illness. Lancaster County Women for Good began as an outreach of Grapevine, a social giving platform that brings people together for philanthropic work. “Grapevine initiated a bunch of groups in different areas of the country and from that point handed it over to local leadership,” said founding member Anna Horst. She’s joined by the local leadership team of group host Joelle Terranova and event coordinators Susan Klapkin

target-grade air rifles to participants, although youths may bring their own air rifles, provided they have iron sights. Air rifles, Amlie explained, shoot projectiles by compressed air. “People should be aware that the club rifles are likely to be more appropriate for target

shooting,” he said. “Air rifles are quiet, but if a participant is especially sensitive to noise, they’re encouraged to bring some sort of ear protection.” Participants are required to use eye protection.

ing experienced shooters hone their skills. “First and foremost, we cover firearms safety,” Amlie remarked. “Even though these aren’t firearms in the strict sense of the word, they’re still potentially dangerous if mishandled, and the basic safety rules are the same and strictly enforced.”

Participants will learn the fundamentals of rifle marksmanship, with smaller kids shooting from supported positions on sandbags and older kids encouraged to shoot using a sling.

“It’s not meant to be a competitive program, except to the extent that people compete against themselves, trying to improve from week to week,” Amlie shared. “Air rifles are very quiet and have little to no recoil, so this is a great low-stress, well-supervised way to introduce kids to firearms safety and marksmanship.”

Amlie noted that although the program begins on Oct. 14, participants are welcome to start at any time. “If someone wants to start after the 14th, they’re asked to come 30 to 45

minutes early that first time so that we can go through the safety orientation before everyone else arrives,” he said.

He hopes anyone who is interested will try out the sport. “I always encourage people to participate in the shooting sports by noting that it’s a yearround activity which is fun for people from ages 8 through 80,” he commented. “Physical strength and size are not as important as they are in other sports, and boys and girls participate shoulder to shoulder. In fact, the young ladies often have a better aptitude for this than the young men.”

The Junior Air Rifle program also sets people up for success outside of the range, he said. “The shooting sports really do require participants to learn to focus very attentively on the task at hand,” he explained. “Developing and practicing that ability is helpful in other areas of life, like school.”

There is a small fee to participate in the Junior Air Rifle program. For more information or to register, contact Amlie at 717-342-4484 or tta2@psu.edu.

Each local group sets its own fundraising parameters. For the Lancaster group, women are asked to commit to giving a minimum of $50 per quarter. In the weeks leading up to the group’s Gather & Grant meetings - which are held in February, May, August and November - members may nominate a nonprofit they’d like to support.

“The nonprofit can have a national or global reach, but it must serve our local community,” Horst explained. “It also must be a 501(c)(3) in good standing.”

From the list of nominees, members vote for their favorites, and representatives from the top three choices are invited to come to a Gather & Grant meeting to give a presentation about their organization and answer any questions. The group then votes on the recipient of that quarter’s donation.

As of now, the organization raises all of its funds through

member donations, but Horst said organizers are looking into sponsorships and fundraisers in the future.

Along with Gather & Grant meetings, which are usually held at Southern Market in downtown Lancaster, the group members also meet once a month for Girl’s Night Out.

“We’ll get together to support a local business, and it’s an extra bonus if the business is woman-owned,” Horst said.

“It’s an opportunity to have fun, socialize, ask questions about our organization and meet other women.”

While most Gather & Grants and Girl’s Night Out events are held on the second Wednesday of the month, October’s Girl’s Night Out will be held on the third Wednesday of the month due to the Manheim Farm Show. It will happen at Horst Arts, 17 N. Main St., Manheim, beginning at 6:30 p.m. on Wednesday, Oct. 18.

For Horst, Lancaster County Women for Good has offered

an easy way to give back to local organizations while also making friends.

“I love the idea of making philanthropy accessible to everyone,” Horst said. “I also like that it gives everyone an opportunity to meet like-minded women who have similar outlooks on philanthropy.”

She said women who are involved with local nonprofits

are especially encouraged to join. “It’s a great way to network and to meet potential volunteers or donors and get to know people who can support your organization,” she stated.

Turning houses into homes

BY CATHY MOLITORIS

“This isn’t a handout,” said Amanda Reilly-Sokoli, executive director of the Pennsylvania Furniture Mission. “It’s a hand up. Our goal is to fill a hole and a need in the community. We work with existing organizations, and we support the whole family.”

Pennsylvania Furniture Mission opened in June in a warehouse off of Chestnut Street in Columbia.

“We provide a full household of furniture to people who need it,” said Pashk Sokoli, chief operating officer and Amanda’s husband. “People get to choose what they want. We have couches, tables, chairs, dressers, mattresses, beds, lamps, small appliances. We give them the dignity of choice. Our goal is to convert a house into a home.”

Although the 501(c)(3) organization is new to the region, its operating concept is well-established. Prior to relocating to central Pennsylvania, Pashk served as director of operations for the Chicago Furniture Bank, the largest furniture bank in the nation.

An Albanian immigrant, he grew up in a family that at times experienced homelessness. He met Berks Countynative Amanda when she was doing mission work in Albania, and they ultimately decided to launch their own furniture mission in Amanda’s home state.

“We wanted to work in a place where the help was most needed,” Pashk said, of the decision to start the organization in Columbia. From its warehouse, the Pennsylva-

nia Furniture Mission can serve clients in five countiesLancaster, York, Dauphin, Lebanon and Berks. The organization relies on donations for its inventory, accepting gently used furniture from individuals as well as from companies and organizations who are closing or transitioning to new items.

“We have standards for the furniture we accept,” Pashk said. “We won’t take anything with stains, rips or tears. If we don’t think we can use it in our home, we don’t take it.”

All items are thoroughly cleaned with high-grade sanitizer, and many pieces are refurbished or refinished at the warehouse before they go out to a client’s home.

Pennsylvania Furniture Mission clients are referred

to the organization by various community nonprofit organizations. Clients are able to come in person to shop for furniture in the warehouse, or they can set up a virtual appointment.

The organization delivers the furniture to the client’s home, and Amanda and Pashk recently took out a loan to purchase a 16-foot box truck for deliveries, which is saving them time and money now that they don’t have to rent delivery trucks. They are looking for sponsors to help offset the cost of the new truck, and sponsors will be able to place a sticker with their logo on the truck.

So far, both Amanda and Pashk are volunteering in their positions with the Pennsylvania Furniture Mis-

sion. Their goal is to be able to not only provide employment for people to drive the delivery truck and help with deliveries, but also earn a salary themselves.

For now, however, they are content with the strides they’ve made in a short amount of time.

“We believe in empowering people,” Amanda said, noting that their clientele includes anyone experiencing financial hardship, including people coming out of homelessness or incarceration. “Our goal is to get them established for future success.”

Apple Fall Festival will raise funds for Haldeman Mansion

BY CATHY MOLITORIS

Fall is the perfect time to get outside, enjoy some apple cider, explore the grounds of a historic site and raise funds for its preservation. Mark your calendar for the 18th annual Apple Fall Festival, which will be held on Sunday, Oct. 8, from noon to 4 p.m. at Haldeman Mansion, 230 Locust Grove Road, Bainbridge.

“This is a fun day with wonderful music and food, and you get a gorgeous view of the Susquehanna River and the beautiful mansion,” said Elaine Jackson, event chair.

The festivities will feature a variety of children’s activities, including information about Johnny Appleseed, a coloring station, apple activities, flying disc throwing, jumping rope and more.

A full menu of food items will be served, featuring grilled Groff’s bratwurst, hot dogs, homemade baked beans, applesauce, soup, chips and a variety of apple desserts. Bainbridge resident Darl Williams will serve fresh-pressed apple cider from his antique cider press.

Live bluegrass music will be performed by Stone Mountain, and Ryan “The Bug Man” Bridge will present an educational program about insects. A silent auction, featuring items from local businesses and organizations, will also be featured.

Tours of the mansion will be offered as well. Constructed in the late 1700s, the building was the home of Samuel Haldeman, a renowned 19th-century

naturalist. The festival is hosted by the Haldeman Mansion Preservation Society, and proceeds will be used for restoration projects

at the site. Work is currently underway on restoring mantels above fireplaces located inside the mansion, and funds are now being raised to complete exterior work between the mansion and the property’s summer kitchen, which houses the Riverview Cafe. Proceeds from the restaurant are used to support the mansion’s preservation

as well.

“We have people who come back year after year for this event, and that’s really nice,” Jackson remarked, encouraging everyone to come to the Apple Fall Festival. “It’s great to see old friends, but it’s nice to meet new people, too. Bring your lawn chair and come spend a day by the river.”

injuries. Unattended cooking is the leading cause of home cooking fires and related deaths.

NFPA has provided a variety of tips related to fire prevention when cooking.

Always keep a close eye on the food that is cooking. For foods with longer cook times, such as those that are simmering or baking, set a timer to help monitor them carefully. Also, do not leave the kitchen while food is cooking, and minimize distractions.

Clear the cooking area of anything that can burn, such as dish towels, oven mitts, food packaging, and paper towels.

Turn pot handles toward the back of the stove. Also, keep a lid nearby when cooking. If a small grease fire starts, slide the lid over the pan and turn off the burner.

Create a kid-free and petfree zone of at least 3 feet around the cooking area and anywhere else hot food or drink is prepared or carried.

Fire Prevention Week is celebrated throughout North America every October. Entering its 101st year, Fire Prevention Week works to educate people about the leading risks of home fires and ways people can better protect themselves and their loved ones. Local fire departments, schools, and community organizations play a key role in spreading basic fire safety messages.

To learn more, visit www.fpw.org. Additional Fire Prevention Week resources for children, caregivers, and educators can be found at www.sparky.org and www .sparkyschoolhouse.org.

VisionCorps opens new facility

VisionCorps opened its renovated Technology & Accessibility Center (TAC) on Aug. 24 at a ribbon-cutting ceremony. The Lancaster County commissioners - chair Ray D’Agostino, Josh Parsons, and John Trescotjoined Dennis Steiner, VisionCorps president/CEO, to officially open the new facility. A public open house was held on Sept. 6.

The TAC is used for individual assessments of clients who are blind or have vision impairments. It includes areas set up as a kitchen, a living or family room, an office, and a technology display area.

Clients can also use the TAC to try low-vision solutions such as task lighting, cell phone options, magnifiers, TV remotes, stove and microwave operation, kitchen tool preparation, and white cane instruction. In addition, clients can learn about technology topics such as computer operation, software,

apps, magnifiers, and some wearable technology solutions.

A $100,000 grant was used for the creation of the TAC. This funding was provided through the American Rescue Plan Act.

The TAC, located on the second floor of VisionCorps, 244 N. Queen St., Lancaster, is open by appointment. For more information, call VisionCorps at 717205-4141.

VisionCorps is a nonprofit with a goal of empowering people who are blind or vision impaired to attain independence by providing them with the tools and training, including employment, to empower them.
