Three Trips Around The Planet Lifecycles Concludes Fourth Season By Chelsea Peifer
Sometimes the wide-open road ahead can look impossible to conquer, but the leaders at Lifecycles are all about equipping students to rise to meet whatever challenges may arise. Founded by Lee DeRemer, the nonprofit mentoring program is committed to building young men of character through bicycling and outdoor adventures. One of the ways Lifecycles accomplishes that is through an annual summer challenge ride, and this year was the first time that the program offered two trips. The first summer journey, dubbed the Extreme Challenge Ride, was designed for Lifecycles participants
ready for an advanced level of riding. A group of 10 teenage boys and six adult leaders spent one week navigating 330 miles from Pittsburgh to Washington, D.C., covering more than 60 miles each day and taking in beautiful scenery along the Great Allegheny Passage. A second trip later in the summer to White Sulfur Springs in Bedford was designed as more of a camping trip with daily rides, rather than a trek from one destination to another. Heavy rainfall during that week added to the normal challenges attached to camping and riding. “It rained almost every day, but we just kept reminding the boys every day that attitude is everything,” DeRemer recalled. In addition to offering two summer rides, the 2018 Lifecycles season featured See Lifecycles pg 11

what you can do with tin. There are so many ideas in my head that I’ll have to live another two or three lifetimes to try them all,” said Hurd, who resides in Quarryville. Bringing ideas to life through artwork is one of life’s greatest joys for Hurd, who said that whenever she steps into her workshop it makes See Art Show pg 4

brass section came in fourth place. Plus, on an individual level, Anika was awarded a $3,000 TOB college scholarship. Color guard captain Brianna Nolan said that students from each grade level meshed well this year, noting that underclassmen were eager to learn and to ask for help when needed. Having a total of eight members for the color guard was also exciting for Brianna, who noted that was a higher number of members than in recent years. “Band is the experience of a lifetime,� stated Brianna. The band’s 10 seniors agreed that the size of the band was one of its strengths, as well. “With a band as small as ours, it’s really easy to get close to each other,� commented senior Lindsey Sellers. From two weeks of band camp in August to daily rehearsals, halftime performances during home football games, and seven TOB competitions, the time the students spend together quickly adds up and lays a foundation for forming lasting friendships. “It’s a hard transition when it ends,� added Anika. Other members of the DHS marching band this season included Brayton Alkinburgh, Kieran Barber, Ryan Bedi, Conner Brackbill, Emma Caszatt, Joanne Dancausem, Levi Dannecker, Kathryn Eckman, Richard Fitts, Luke Foundation, Emily Fuhrman, Rachel Fuhrman,

division, which is open to schools in the Mid-Atlantic states with up to 30 musicians and a maximum of 30 auxiliary or color guard members. The Donegal band presented “Iron House: The Journey Across America� for its show this fall, which focused on the first transcontinental railroad using different songs representing the land before and after the railroad was built, along with backdrops illustrating sunset and nighttime on the open prairie. As several of the seniors reflected on achieving second place overall, they attributed some of their success to the power of the show ’s theme, which the seniors agreed had both strong design and a strong storyline. DHS band president Regina Redinger thought that the way this season’s show focused on a specific topic and followed a chronological order also made it more likable for judges and audiences. Secretary Clark Mummau praised band director Dale Sellers for his excellent leadership of the group. Hard work and talent were other factors the students saw as keys to their success. “Our musicality was a lot better this year,� noted band vice president Anika Weaver. In addition to the band achieving second place overall, the woodwinds section and color guard each placed third and the

Milanof-Schock Library, 1184 Anderson Ferry Road, Mount Joy, will offer a program on making ornaments on Wednesday, Dec. 12, at 6 p.m.

embellishments, such as family pictures or old holiday cards, they would like to use. They should also wear clothes suited for messy work. Space is limited.

paper mache and chalkware folk art; Madeline Erickson, German stars and feather trees; Bob and Sally Hughes, pottery; P.J. Rankin Hults, folk painted paper cutting; Jim Murphy, painted furniture; Judy Perilstein, handcrafted vintage antique button jewelry; Ed and Lois Pfoutz, primitive wild fowl carvings; and Doug Shaw, wood carvings. Many of the artists have devoted followers who faithfully seek out the one-of-a-kind, original pieces that are available at the annual show. Last year’s show drew people from seven states, and Shaw recalled a long line stretching down the block on opening day as folks waited for the doors to open. “It was miserably cold out, but they were glad to wait,” Shaw remarked. Ed Pfoutz, who organized the inaugural show back in 1996 with the late Jack Ritter, said that although the show itself cannot expand due to the space limitations of the railroad station, attendance continues to soar higher and higher each
year. “We had no idea it would keep going this long. It was just something that we wanted to try,” shared Pfoutz, who creates carvings primarily out of reclaimed wood. A duck hunter, Pfoutz began dabbling in wood carving as a way to save money on expensive duck decoys by making his own, and he later branched out into fine art as well. His wife, Lois, helps with painting. “She’s also my inspiration,” Pfoutz noted. Wooden geese, crows, and ravens a r e some of the P foutzes’ bestsellers, and the couple will be introducing angels made from driftwood at this year’s show. The show’s organizers and exhibitors consider the railroad station, which was originally constructed in 1881 and renovated in recent years by the
Manheim Historical Society, to be an ideal setting for the event, describing the atmosphere as warm and friendly. In addition to perusing the art show, attendees may purchase freshly roasted peanuts outside the station, where an old Manheim peanut oven will be in operation. The Manheim Historical Society museum and the model railroad display located adjacent to the railroad station will be open to the public, as well as Stiegel Glassworks 1976, located at the rear of the railroad station. Glassblowing demonstrations will take place at Stiegel, and a variety of handcrafted glass will be available to purchase.

her feel like saying, “I’m home!” “It’s where I belong,” shared Hurd. Hurd has been creating tin wares for decades, and some of her tin ornaments were even used in the White House holiday décor during the Clinton presidency - an opportunity that presented itself after her work was displayed at the American Folk Museum in New York City.

ed by board members,” Livengood explained. “It’s based off the idea of people paying off layaways (at superstores), school lunch accounts, and electric bills. We thought it was a cool concept and a unique way to donate during the holiday season.” Donations to LDHL are taxdeductible. Organizations and individuals may donate to Secret Santa through Tuesday, Jan. 15, 2019. All of the funds will be divided among the borrowers, with up to $500 of debt forgiven per person. That maximum
amount was identified as the most LDHL may forgive without borrowers having to pay taxes on the forgiven debt. “We will use the money to pay off as many (debts) as possible,” Livengood said. The application process for the 2019-20 school year will open on Friday, Feb. 1, 2019. Folks may learn more about Secret Santa or donate by visiting www.lancdollars.org. Those with questions may contact Livengood at 717-682-9194 or clivengood@lancdollars.org.
Secret Santa from pg 1 Founded in 1961 as Citizen Scholarship Fund and changing its name to Dollars for Scholars of Lancaster County for a time, Lancaster Dollars for Higher Learning (LDHL) has always had one mission: that of helping county residents to attend college full time by providing interest-free loans. “We offer a hand up, not a handout,” said executive director Christie Livengood. She noted that LDHL has a 96 percent repayment rate. “Students pay (their loans) back because we’re a local nonprofit and they know it matters. By paying it back, in turn, they help someone else.” LDHL gives loans once a year, and Lancaster County students attending an accredited program anywhere in the world full time may borrow money up to four years. Loans are not automatically renewed; borrowers must reapply every year. The amount awarded depends on how much money LDHL has received from community donors and student repayments; it has no endowment and receives no government funding. In August 2018, LDHL loaned $1,025,100 to 604 students. “The more money we receive, the more money we can give out,” Livengood remarked. Thanks to community support, the maximum amount a student may borrow each year has increased to $1,700. The
maximum student debt is currently $6,500, reported LDHL administrator Amy Heth. Borrowers have a six-month grace period after graduation before they must start repaying their loan at the rate of $100 a month. LDHL officials hope that this holiday season, folks will be inspired to participate in the organization’s first-ever Secret Santa event, which aims to pay off a portion of students’ debts anonymously. “The general idea was suggest-

Haunted Lantern Tour To Return With “Mortality Within” in” By Chelsea Peifer
Sara Mimnall and Rebecca Wright chose the theme of “Mortality Within” for Columbia’s Haunted Lantern Tour this year because they wanted to introduce people to a not-often-talked-about aspect of the rivertown’s history. The theme will focus on the disease and poverty that struck Columbia and other communities in earlier days, discussing the presence of pesthouses and sanitariums and how much things have changed. “It shows how people suffered more than they had to because they didn’t have the
like we do now,” noted Mimnall. “It will also touch on the Great Depression and how the lack of food (and resources) can change people,” Wright added. Popular characters from past years will also reappear, Wright said, such as William Campbell, a local trapper who died from rabies and is buried in Columbia’s historic Mount Bethel Cemetery. History abounds in the cemetery and the town, and according to Mimnall and Wright, while spooky elements are intertwined on the tour, history is indeed the emphasis. The hourlong guided tours will take place on Friday and Saturday
John’s Evangelical Lutheran Church, 23 S. Sixth St., Columbia. Tours will step off every half hour beginning at 6:30 p.m., with the last tour starting at 9:30 p.m. Participants will follow guides to Locust Street and through a loop in the Mount Bethel Cemetery before returning to the church. To purchase tickets, interested individuals may call 717-517-2442. A specific tour time will be designated when tickets are reserved. Organizers strongly encourage people to order tickets in advance. A limited number of tickets may be available on the night of the tours but are not

To achieve COA reaccreditation, Tabor first provided written evidence of compliance with the COA standards. After that, a group of specially trained volunteer peer reviewers confirmed adherence to these standards during a series of on-site interviews with trustees, staff, and clients. Based on their findings, COA’s volunteer-based Accreditation Commission voted that Tabor Community Services had successfully met the criteria for reaccreditation.

The impact of the flooding has interrupted the growth curve of the fish that the DFCA raises for its Kids Fishing Derby every spring and stocking of the creek in the upcoming year. The organization notes that it may not have enough fish to sponsor the derby in 2019 and that stockings may not be available for a couple of years. The DFCA is asking for support from the community to help rebuild the nursery. Donations can be made at www.go fundme.com/dfca-restoration -from-flood-of-2018.

The Donegal Fish and Conservation Association’s (DFCA) nursery was devastated during the recent flooding. The water washed out the entrance to the nursery, the gravel and ground cover over the drainage system, and the new screens just built and placed by a local Eagle Scout. With the screens off of the top of the nursery, all of the fish were washed into the pond that the natural spring feeds into. Nursery walls caved in due to the water pressure, and the gravel from the drainage system filled the raceway, blocking water flow and pushing the fish out of the raceway. The DFCA shed, full of fish food, tools, and more, was lifted and floated down the nursery and across the pond to the dam on the opposite side. With the help of the nursery land owner, the DFCA recovered all of the screens and many items that were essential to rearing

“That was really neat, and I love watching the boys see things they’d probably never see unless they were off the grid.” The Garden Spot site led rides on Wednesday evenings from April through November, but Vega said the schedule for 2019 is still in the works. Individuals interested in participating at any of the sites may visit www.lifecyclesteam.org to learn more. “The doors are always open,” DeRemer stated. Rides take place on a weekly basis with extra rides on Saturdays from time to time. Bicycles and helmets are provided, along with a meal. Participation is free and open to boys ages 12 to 18. Following a holiday break, Lifecycles will resume in January with
its indoor program on Tuesday and Thursday evenings at Rainbow ’s End Youth Services (REYS), 105 Fairview Ave., Mount Joy. As Lifecycles wrapped up its fourth year of operations, DeRemer said that thus far the organization has tracked a total of more than 77,000 miles ridden - equivalent to more than three times around the planet - and over 22,000 volunteer hours and 10,000 meals served. “I’m just floored by this, and we’re already talking about year five,” shared DeRemer. In 2019, Lifecycles plans to implement a teenage bicycling safety certification for those interested. “We have been educating them but wanted to be
able to give an official certification,” DeRemer explained. It will allow participants to take a test and become certified through a practicum experience. The summer Extreme Challenge Ride will cover 400 miles from Lancaster to Boston. “If you’re really ready, we’ll give you an experience you won’t forget,” said DeRemer. To inquire about volunteering at any of the locations, readers may email director@ lifecyclesteam.org or call 717586-2511. “We always love to have new volunteers of any age and riding ability,” remarked DeRemer.

the introduction of a new weekly riding site that met at Garden Spot Village, 433 S. Kinzer Ave., New Holland. Albert Vega, who had volunteered as a leader for the weekly rides on Tuesdays and Thursdays in Marietta and Landisville, approached DeRemer with the idea of starting another site in the eastern part of the county. “My truck was always full going up to Marietta, and I told Lee that it would be cool to expand,” Vega recalled. “He asked if I’d be willing to lead it, so I began recruiting leaders.” Vega said that is especially amazing to see boys who start out saying that something is too hard go on to conquer the particular ride or obstacle. “ We climbed for two days (during the Extreme Challenge Ride), and when we got to mile marker zero in D.C., all the boys were saying, ‘We accomplished it!’” Vega said.

R025849
In addition to the HO trains running upstairs, the Lower Susquehanna Valley O-Scale Modular Group will have part of its modular layout set up downstairs in the main hall. The group’s layout features sound-equipped locomotives, lit buildings, and an operating miniature drive-in movie theater. Exhibits about the Pennsylvania Railroad and the Reading Railroad, both of which were prominent in Columbia’s history, will be available for visitors to enjoy, as well as exhibits on the history of the Underground Railroad in Columbia. The Ed King Memorial Model Train open house events are held in honor of Ed King, a longtime volunteer at CHPS and an avid model railroader and collector. Some of King’s memorabilia will be included in the display. CHPS is a nonprofit organization dedicated to the preservation of the river town of Columbia and operates a museum featuring artifacts, a research room and microfilm archive, and published articles and books on the town’s history. To learn more about the train display or to inquire about volunteer opportunities, readers may visit https://columbiahistory.net or call 717-684-2894.

The events are open to the public from 1 to 4 p.m. every Saturday and Sunday in December and will also be open on Saturday, Jan. 5, and Sunday, Jan. 6, 2019. Admission is free; however, donations are appreciated and will benefit CHPS. The 2,200-square-foot HO model train display will be running several long freight and passenger trains, pulled by sound-equipped steam and diesel locomotives.

The model railroad, called the Columbia & Susquehanna HO Model RR, is set up on the second floor of the historical society. Trolley and train videos will be shown on a television screen in the train room. Santa Claus is expected to make sporadic visits to the event to interact with children and other guests of all ages.

Kaylene (left) and Jimm Derksen, during Lancaster Mennonite High School’s Commitment Week from Oct. 16 to 19, highlighted the kinds of disconnection that people can experience from God and other people. result of stopping to notice the woman next to her. In her own way, not being on her phone helped her enter into creativity. Other students shared about how they had a greater sense of respect and appreciation for people around them as a result of disconnecting from their smartphones. A common observation among the students and staff members who took on the challenge was that they had more time due to not using their smartphones or social media accounts. The goal was not just to disconnect from technology, but to also use the time as an opportunity for students to
reconnect with their communities. Focusing on how disconnection from others can eventually lead to dehumanization, the Derksens addressed human rights crises in places like the Democratic Republic of Congo, Myanmar, and Syria. As the 550 students exited the auditorium after the last session, teachers stood at the doorways with bowls of chocolate truffles. Each student was handed a truffle and sent off with the statement “You are a gift.” Lancaster Mennonite School h o l d s c h a p e l s e r v i c e s fo u r times per week at its Lancaster Campus.

Lancaster Mennonite High School (LMHS) students were recently challenged to go 48 hours without using their smartphones or social media accounts. Jimm and Kaylene Derksen, chapel speakers for LMS’s Commitment Week from Oct. 16 to 19, focused on the theme “The Good, the Bad, the Ugly, and the Beautiful” over four different sessions. They highlighted the kinds of disconnection from God and other people that one can experience, sometimes resulting from smartphone addiction. The Derksens are both certified soul care providers and also staff members at Eastern Mennonite Missions (EMM). Jimm is a personnel placement coach and Kaylene is the development director. One of EMM’s three core values is well-being. EMM seeks to improve the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being of its workers and those whom they serve around the world, as well as stakeholders.

Skating Show To Tackle Big Questions By Ann Mead Ash
A December skating show has been a hallmark of the Red Rose Figure Skating Club since 2006. For 2018, Ursula Wolfer, lead choreographer for the presentation, chose to tackle questions concerning acceptance of self and others in a show titled “Mirror Mirror.” The Red Rose Figure Skating Club show will be presented on
Saturday, Dec. 8, at 1 and 5 p.m. at the Lancaster Ice Rink, 371 Carerra Drive, Lancaster. The show will feature up to 45 skaters ranging from 4-year-olds to adults. Solos in the show will be performed by high school seniors and skaters who have reached the elite level in the club. The 2018 soloists will include Manheim Township High School student Katelyn Young, Lancaster Catholic High
School student Erin Regan, Hempfield High School students Courtney Meyers and Ellamay Cassidy, Red Land High School student Makayla Robitaille, and Lancaster Mennonite High School student Dulce Shenk-Zeager. For the story of “Mirror Mirror,” Wolfer reflected on the themes of two Disney Channel movies - “Descendants,” which tells the tale of children of storybook villains, and “Zombies,” a musical that pits zombies and humans against each other in a high school setting. According to Wolfer, the story of “Mirror Mirror” begins in a lovely village filled with princes, princesses, and heroes. Audience members will be welcomed to step
Skaters who will take part in the Red Rose Figure Skating Club’s “Mirror Mirror” show include (from left) Courtney Meyers, Erin Regan, Katelyn Young, Ellamay Cassidy, Makayla Robitaille, and Dulce Shenk-Zeager. The show will be staged on Saturday, Dec. 8, at 1 and 5 p.m. at the Lancaster Ice Rink.
into the magic mirror and visit this town where life is good. Wolfer said that musical performances for this portion of the show will be set to the songs “Happy” and “The Best Day of My Life.” However, all is not perfectly well in the town of royalty and heroes. “We rarely stop to think about the struggles these heroes may have,” said Wolfer. “Every princess is searching for her prince, and how does she know that he loves her for who she really is?” Wolfer said one of the princesses in the show will skate to Whitney Houston’s “How Will I Know?” “We are showing another side of (the princesses),” explained Wolfer. “They are not sure how the public perceives them, and they are a little insecure. They’re going through what a lot of teens go through.” No village of princes and princesses would be complete without a ball, so the town hosts a big party. The fete, however, is interrupted by uninvited guests when zombies and the storybook villlains’ descendants arrive. The arrival of these characters
shakes things up in the town, according to Wolfer. Preconceived notions and stereotypes are questioned as the characters consider the implications of living life differently. “The ‘Descendants’ characters question whether they can try being good,” said Wolfer, adding that the princesses and heroes consider whether they should retaliate for the unkindness they have experienced. “We end the act with a lot of questions,” said Wolfer, who noted that the last number will be skated to Aerosmith’s “Walk This Way.” Wolfer noted that when the second half of the story opens, the town will be segregated. “The good and evil live together, but not really,” she said. “We look at Zombieville, and there’s a cheerleading number … but the zombies aren’t allowed to take part.” Members of the town dream of a place where all its citizens can be who they are and live and work together in appreciation of each other’s differences. Wolfer skated with Disney on Ice for several years, and she has brought her professional experience to the choreography of the show. “In our finale number, we bring in every age and level skater on the ice together for a number,” she said.
Annual Advent Service Posted The Octorara Covenanter Presbyterian Foundation will hold its annual Advent service at Middle Octorara Presbyterian Church, 1199 Valley Road, Quarryville, on Sunday, Dec. 9, at 3 p.m. The program will feature Highland bagpiping by Thompson McConnell, Dan Emery on small piper and fiddle, and Shirley Girvin on organ and accordion. In addition, the Christmas story from Matthew and Luke will be read in Braid Scots by Donald Henderson. Vocal solos, duets, and congregational singing will also be included. “We do a giant pinwheel with this mixed group. (This display) is almost a signature of our shows.” Readers who wish to purchase tickets to the show may email Lynne@rrfsc.org. Tickets for certain seating areas will be discounted. Children age 2 and under who sit on a caregiver’s lap will be admitted free.
