Dave

Dravecky to speak at Cornerstone banquet

Taking a seat at the table

MargaretThatcher once said, “If you want something done, ask a woman.”

There’s a whole lot getting done in Lancaster County, because for the first time ever, all of the Chambers of Commerce in the county are led by women. Each woman brings a wealth of experience and a unique perspective to her role, but all of the leaders share a common goal: They want to make their community a great place to live and work.

Denise Grove, who started her role as executive director of the Elizabethtown Area Chamber of

Commerce in February of 2022, said the job offers her a way to really connect with others. “As a lifetime resident of Elizabethtown, I had a strong desire to work where I could make a difference and be a part of strengthening our community,” she remarked, a sentiment shared by Heather Valudes, who has been president and CEO of the Lancaster Chamber of Commerce since June of 2022. “I love Lancaster and the work that we are able to advance to make our employer community as strong as possible,” she said, noting that the Lancaster Chamber is countywide and represents nearly

1,500 businesses, almost half of the county’s workforce.

For Ashley Zell, who became executive director of the Mount Joy Chamber of Commerce in January, the job brings a chance to get to know her community. “The friends and connections made and the interaction with the Chamber members and community at our numerous different events are definitely the biggest rewards of this position,” Zell said.

The women also remarked that holding the job offers a chance to see their communities thrive. “It’s seeing kids dancing at the farmers market,” commented Rebecca

Branle, who has been executive director of Venture Lititz since August of 2021. “It’s celebrating big wins with merchants. It’s watching this town become ever more alive with art, culture and community pride.” Her perspective matches that of Kristie Schmid, who has been executive director of the Manheim Area Chamber of Commerce since March of 2021. “I love seeing our community respond to the revitalization in town, the increase in businesses and the new community events,” Schmid said. “It’s fulfilling to put your time into something and then see others have pride in it as well.”

See At the table pg 11

In 1988, Dave Dravecky was on top of the world. The Major League Baseball pitcher was at the peak of his career when cancer was discovered in his pitching arm. Despite being told he’d never pitch again, Dravecky recovered and returned to baseball a year later. His victory was short-lived, however, and just five days after his return to the big leagues, he shattered his arm while throwing a pitch. His arm had to be amputated, and his baseball career was over. Dravecky could have wallowed in his sorrow and withdrawn from the public eye. Instead, he took the opportunity to turn tragedy into hope. Now a motivational speaker, Dravecky will give the keynote address at Cornerstone Youth Center’s 25th anniversary banquet. The event will be held at Mount Calvary Christian School, 629 Holly St., Elizabethtown, on Thursday, March 30. The doors will open at 5:30 p.m., and the banquet will begin at 6 p.m.

“I was a freshman in college when all of this happened with Dave Dravecky, and I was a baseball player at the time,” said Jim Bush, executive director of Cornerstone. “I read his book, and when I heard he was one of the people we were considering for our banquet, I was really excited.”

In addition to Dravecky’s talk, the banquet will feature a catered dinner by Harvey’s Main Street BBQ, including stuffed chicken breast with gravy, mashed potatoes, green beans, applesauce, assorted pies and drinks. A silent auction will feature a variety of items, including a book and baseball autographed by Dravecky, See Dravecky pg 2

jewelry donated by Andrew Douglas Jewelers, a pie of the month donated by a local baker and a gift basket from Masonic Villages. “We have a handcrafted cornhole set and a charcuterie board that a woodworker made for us,” Bush stated. “Last year, the cornhole set went for $1,000.”

New this year, the banquet will feature a live auction of items created by students at Cornerstone. “We

have something we call our Monday Clubs, and each month is a different theme,” Bush explained. “January was jewelry making, February was photography and March is cake baking and decorating. Some of the items the students madejewelry, framed photographs and cakes they’ve made and decorated - will be auctioned off live.”

Cornerstone is celebrating its 25th anniversary, so that will also be a highlight of the evening, he noted. “We’re going to celebrate the past 25 years and everything that God has done in the ministry,” he remarked. “We’re going to share with folks where we see God taking this ministry in the next 25 years.”

Good-Faiola

Going for gold with monarch butterflies

The wedding of Maria Faiola and Ben Good took place on Nov. 11, 2022, at Yeonginsan Park in Asan, South Korea. Stephen Beers officiated.

The bride is the daughter of Anthony and Carol Faiola. She graduated from Elizabethtown Area High School in 2015 and the University of Delaware in 2019. She is a first lieutenant in the United States Air Force, stationed in Osan, South Korea.

The groom is the son of David Good and Mikki Doss. He graduated from Elizabethtown Area High School in 2015 and Bloomsburg University in 2020. He is pursuing a master’s degree in history at UMGC.

The reception took place at Yeonginsan Park.

After a wedding trip to Vietnam, Singapore and Indonesia, the couple resides in Osan, South Korea.

Alessia Archer knew she wanted to earn her Gold Award, the highest honor a Girl Scout can achieve, but she was stuck trying to come up with an idea for her project. Inspiration struck when she saw an ad in the Merchandiser for Milkweed 4 Monarchs, an Elizabethtownbased business that grows the essential food for monarch butterflies.

“I contacted Cindy Leonard of Milkweed 4 Monarchs, and I went to her farm, helped her with the milkweed she was growing, and she showed me how to make these mini greenhouses out of old milk jugs and iced tea jugs,” said Alessia, who is a senior at Donegal High School. “She gave me 200 milkweed seeds for free, and I

spent the whole summer making these mini greenhouses.”

Alessia distributed the greenhouses at Marietta Day last May, as well as to friends and family through the summer and early fall of

2022. “When it got too cold outside, in September and October, I planned a little lesson plan for day cares, and I had a craft for them to do as well,” she stated. “I went to five or six day cares in Elizabethtown, Columbia, Mount Joy and Hershey, and I gave the lesson and did a craft with the kids.”

The project was a natural fit for Alessia, who said she has loved monarchs since she was a child. “Monarch butterflies are my favorite butterfly,” she stated. “Ever since I was little, it’s been me and my grandmother’s thing to look for the monarchs.”

Her Gold Award project, which Alessia titled “Saving the Monarch Butterflies,” required a minimum of 80 hours to problem-solve, plan and implement. “I definitely learned good communication skills, being able to reach out and call the day cares or go and meet people to talk about my project,”

she remarked, noting that she also contacted the Turkey Hill Experience in Columbia, which donated empty jugs for the project.

Alessia has been a Girl Scout for seven years and is a member of Troop 70595.

“I’ve learned so much from Girl Scouts,” she said. “We do a lot of things I had never done before and probably wouldn’t get a chance to do without Girl Scouts.”

This past summer, her troop traveled to Colorado, where

they went ziplining and whitewater rafting and rode horses. When she’s not busy with Girl Scouts, Alessia, who is the daughter of Deanna Musser of Marietta, is involved in a variety of clubs at school and was a member of the field hockey team.

Musser said she’s impressed with Alessia’s dedication to the project. “I’m very proud of her,” she said. “She worked really hard. … I also want to thank her troop

leader, Julie Houck, and her two regular volunteers, Fran Richards and Sheila Fasig, who do an amazing job with the girls.”

Encouraging other girls to earn their Gold Award, Alessia said, “Even though it’s a lot of work and it feels difficult in the moment, the end is so rewarding, and all of the hard work pays off.”

Alessia will receive her Gold Award at a ceremony at Bucknell University on Sunday, June 11.

For some of the Chamber leaders, the role is a full-time job. For others, it’s something they do in addition to other employment. As a financial adviser for Edward Jones, Jona Green serves as head of the Southern Lancaster County Chamber of Commerce on a volunteer basis, but she’s just as committed to that role as she is her paid job. “The biggest reward is absolutely the connection to our schools and community,” said Green, who has been leading her Chamber since March of 2022. “Our reach is large, but our heart is rooted in service and making more things possible for our members.”

Although each of the Chambers faces its own challenges, the directors all project positivity when it comes to their communities. “Right now, we see the biggest challenge for a number of our members to be finding enough employees,” said Kerry Meyers, who stepped down as executive director of the Mount Joy Chamber of Commerce after more than 11 years and is now executive assistant to Zell. “And for our small shops in Mount Joy, it is getting customers in their doors. We need the community to support small local businesses.”

Liz Ackerman, who has been executive director of the Northern Lancaster County Chamber of Commerce since January of 2019, said her organization faces a challenge of keeping pace with expansion. “We are growing at an exponential rate,” she explained, noting that she values maintaining a close connection with all of the Chamber’s 430-plus members. “We pride ourselves on knowing every member’s name and understanding their needs.”

For some of the directors,

being a female leader in the world of business has been a challenge they’ve faced with grace. “I have learned to embrace my leadership style and not shy away from opportunities to lead,” said Grove, noting that she attributes her success to surrounding herself with strong female role models. “Confidence in yourself is key. We all belong at the table, so be brave enough to pull up a chair. If you are afraid, do it anyway.”

That’s a feeling Branle said she understands. “My worst enemy has always been the negative voice in my head, telling me to question my worthiness,” she stated. “If you, too, have a voice like that, learn to tell her to be quiet.”

As committed as they are to their Chambers, all of the women have managed to find a work-life balance. Meyers has been married for 45 years and loves spending time with her two children and five grandchildren. Zell is raising a family of three with her husband, and they enjoy hiking and attending Faith Bible Fellowship Church. Valudes is the married mother of twin daughters, serves as secretary for the Paradise Township Lions Club and helps with Girl Scouts. Grove and her husband enjoy spending time with their seven children and eight grandchildren, and Grove is active with the Rotary Club of Elizabethtown, where she will serve as president beginning in 2025.

Ackerman and her husband are raising two children, and she describes herself as a “serial volunteer” with numerous organizations. Branle and her husband have three children, and the family loves to bike, travel and play “very competitive family football games.” Green and

her husband are raising two children who are active in their high school’s marching band, and she joked that her favorite hobby is “networking.” Schmid has been married for 22 years, has three girls and loves to read, shop and explore local breweries.

As for advice for other female leaders, each woman referenced striking a balance between being assertive and being kind. “Work with integrity,” Zell stated. “Be willing to humble yourself. Be respectful of others in the workplace and the community.”

Ackerman advised that women should also be kind to themselves. “Own your talents and always accept a compliment,” she remarked. “This is one of the hardest things to learn, but recognizing your strengths, especially when someone points them out to

you, provides a confidence that will reach far beyond anything you can read in a book.”

And don’t underestimate what you can achieve, Schmid said, adding, “Never limit yourself. Find your passion and put your all into developing it so you can bring your best to the table.”

Women of all ages and preschool children are invited to attend Neighbors Sharing and Caring, a women’s ministry of the Chiques Church, 4045 Sunnyside Road, Manheim, on Tuesday, March 14, from 9 to 10:45 a.m.

Sherry Eshleman will share on the topic “Consider the Lilies,” based on Matthew

years.

During the meeting, classes will be provided for infants through kindergarten-age children. Readers may contact Bonnie at 717361-2613 or Veronica at 717-626-7603 for more information and a copy of this year’s Neighbors Sharing and Caring schedule.

Lititz Pretzel Fest scheduled

The Kiwanis Club of Lititz Area will host the 2023 Lititz Pretzel Fest in downtown Lititz on Saturday, May 6, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Downtown parking will be free the day of the event. The Lititz Pretzel Fest will be held rain or shine.

Highlighting the area’s rich pretzel history, the Lititz Pretzel Fest will include numerous sweet and savory samplings at about 24 locations, with pretzels as the key ingredient. There will also be beverage tastings at five sites and live music.

Ticket holders will be able to vote for their favorites in four categories: sweet, savory, creative, and beverage. In contention will be honey habanero pretzel-encrusted chicken bites

with Mountain Lager at Appalachian Brewing Company and the chipotle pretzel bark with smoked gouda and Wilbur Chocolate from Hearth and Harrow’s chef.

Some new additions will be Brazilian pretzel pizza at Brazilian Table and smoked Buffalo chicken dip at Tied House, as well as a cannoli pretzel parfait at Piccolo Eatery. Pretzel biscottis will be served with a sample of sea salt caramel coffee at Pebbles and Lace, and chocolate chip cheesecake dip will be available at Moravian House Antiques.

Julius Sturgis Pretzel Bakery, event co-sponsor, provides all the pretzels used as ingredients and pretzels to

accompany adult tastings. Anyone who wants to volunteer to mark tickets or help serve treats should contact Melissa Warner at geom1948 @gmail.com or call 717-4687665. Volunteers will receive vouchers to a few tasting stops.
