From June 10 through 14, more than 30 youngsters from about a dozen school districts took part in the fourth Garden Spot Fire Rescue (GSFR) Cadet Camp.
GSFR member Cody Straub, who spearheaded the concept of the camp from the beginning and serves as camp coordinator, said that each year camp is a little different. “We tweak it here and there,” he said. “We bring in guest speakers to change it up.” This year’s five-day camp for youths ages 10 to 14 met both at the GSFR New Holland station and at the company’s training center at 1156 Reservoir Road, East Earl. On June 11, different stations were set up at the training center to give campers a variety of experiences. “Today, we are giving them some rescue scenarios. That’s new for them,” shared Straub.
According to GSFR safety
Firefighters in training
officer Jaime Weir, one station involved a Stokes basket and the GSFR ladder truck. A Stokes basket is utilized to carry or lower a victim using a rope system. “The cadets are acting as patients in the Stokes basket and being tended to by EMTs,” said Weir. Another station involved confined space rescues in the training building. Weir described how smoke machines created an environment where cadets could take part in Rapid Intervention Training (RIT) to learn to extricate victims or firefighters. To complete the station, cadets geared up in firefighting equipment, including self-contained breathing apparatus. “They use thermal imaging cameras to search and find a victim and drag them out,” said Weir.
According to Weir, other activities planned for the week included learning about all aspects and requirements of an engine company, as well as vehicle rescue and exposure to emergency
Aaron’s Acres campers are happy in New Holland
BY ANN MEAD ASH
For the past 13 summers, Sam has been enjoying camp with Aaron’s Acres, an organization that provides programing for children and adults with special needs. Sam has become a fixture at camp, and staff members affectionately refer to him as “The Mayor.” Sam’s focus at camp is on time in the water. His favorite thing is swimming.

“Today is the day we officially take off our hard hats,” said Herman Bontrager to applause.
Bontrager, board chair of the Clinic for Special Children and chair of the Keeping the Promise Building Hope capital campaign, was addressing the gathering at the June 20 ribbon-cutting ceremony and open house held at the new Clinic for Special Children, recently completed at 20 Community Lane, Gordonville.
Bontrager welcomed the
group and immediately recalled April 4, 2023, when the organization broke ground for the new building. He also reminded the gathering of the vision and courage of Dr. Holmes Morton and his wife, Caroline, who founded the clinic 35 years ago. “We have served the most vulnerable among us - children and adults facing rare genetic disorders,” said Bontrager, adding, “Today children with once life-limiting disorders are growing into healthy adults and new treatments are on the horizon. This building represents

medical training. Weir noted that about 80% of a camper’s time is spent doing hands-on training activities.

rescue activity.
The camp is staffed by up to 25 GSFR members each day, who often use vacation hours to help out, but other area first-responder organizations take part as well. “Weaverland Valley Fire Company is here. Yesterday, Martindale (Fire Company) was here,” said Weir, who added that New Holland EMS and a Penn Med 1 EMS physician also visited.
On the final day of camp, a graduation ceremony was held, and each camper received a certificate.

Aaron’s Acres
Community Pool, located in the 400 block of Jackson Street. “We have truly been blessed with this partnership (the New Holland Community Park and Pool, which is overseen by New Holland Borough),” said Risa Paskoff, executive director of Aaron’s Acres, referring to the borough and park staff members. “They welcomed us. They tell us they love having us here, and we love being part of this community.”
Aaron’s Acres holds camp in New Holland over three two-week sessions. The first camp began on June 17, and camp will end on Friday, Aug. 2. “We skip the week of July 1,” explained Paskoff. Camp is open to individuals ages 5 to 21 of varying abilities. “No one is turned away because of disability,” said Paskoff, who noted that the staff, which offers a one-toone or one-to-two counselor-to-camper ratio, includes two nurses. Program director Elaine Burnett oversees the camps. Burnett’s staff now includes interns from area colleges, who receive credit for their work. “We formalized college relationships so students can do internships, and we are trying to expand that piece as we continue to grow,” said Paskoff, who added that the number of
campers is dependent on the number of staff members and that some camps are smaller this year because it has been challenging to find adequate staff.
Campers are grouped by age, with those ages 5 to 12 in a younger group and 13to 21-year-olds together in the older group. All campers have opportunities to swim, ride horseback, enjoy music therapy, and interact with animals in a petting zoo. Staff members organized for fire trucks to visit the park and for a ventriloquist and reptile show to give presentations. To provide parents the opportunity to see campers enjoying those activities, a large number of volunteer photographers visit camp to take photos. Each camper receives a booklet filled with pictures of him or herself taking part in camp activities.
“There’s no downtime,” noted Paskoff. “We are going constantly.” According to Paskoff, campers may take part in a new activity every 15 minutes. “It’s a lot of planning,” she said, adding that activities are not designed just to keep campers busy. “Everything we do has meaning behind it,” Paskoff said. “We’re working on socialization or motor
skills.” Each day of camp has a different theme, and activities and snacks coordinate to that theme. Parents receive a schedule on the first day of camp so they can share what the activities will be before the child goes to camp each day. “At the end of the day, the parent can have a conversation about what the child did during the day,” said Paskoff.
The rewards of camp are myriad, and they are experienced by campers, staff, and parents, according to Paskoff, who told the story of a child who was refusing to take part in horseback riding. Staff members convinced him to give it a try, and after his first ride, he asked to go again. Sharing that story with the child’s family resulted in happy tears for staff and parents alike.
Although camp is only available for individuals up to age 21, Aaron’s Acres now provides activities for those with special needs up to age 40, including a sports league and a cooking program. “We want to expand to that age group because there’s a huge need,” said Paskoff. “We want to do it now to be true to who we are, so in the fall we will be doing more with that age
group.”
Expanding the program has intensified the need for the organization to have a home where those services can be provided. “We are looking at existing places that want to partner with us,” said Paskoff, who noted that a long-term lease situation would be ideal for the organization.

The Rodriguez family from New York spoke next, with Alicia, mother of Eric and wife of Walter, telling the story of how the family was overwhelmed by Eric’s diagnosis of glutaric acidemia when he was born at 31 weeks of gestation. Walter searched the internet for answers, and when he discovered the clinic in Lancaster County, the
family drove the four hours to meet staff members. “We thought the GPS had made a mistake,” noted Alicia of the final portion of the trip when the car traveled through a farm field and a cluster of trees. “From the moment we walked in, we felt hope,” she
stated, noting that Eric, who is now 5, is in good health and “runs us ragged.” “He is our daily reminder that God is gracious and good,” she said. “The clinic manifests hope when there isn’t any.”

vision for this project was conceived a number of years ago when the need for the clinic’s innovative and essential services was increasing while the walls of clinic were not,” he said. Heaps defined the work of the organization in a number of ways, noting that the office serves children and adults with genetic disorders primarily from the Plain community. “We walk alongside families that have to make important decisions relating to some of the most daunting medical challenges,” he
said. Heaps noted that staff members endeavor to create a comforting and inspiring environment for every family that walks through the clinic’s doors, and he quoted a donor who recently prayed for the clinic, saying, “The clinic is a place where love and knowhow come together.” “To me, at the end of the day, the clinic combines love and knowledge to create good,” Heaps added.
