Library Adds Book Lockers
The Hershey Public Library has purchased book lockers through a grant award of American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds from the U.S. Institute of Museum and Library Services in addition to support from the Friends of the Hershey Public Library. The book lockers will allow library users to pick up physical materials 24/7.
To access the lockers, library users will log into their online account and place a hold on items. After users receive a text or email
with a five-digit passcode, they will visit the lockers and type the passcode or scan a QR code to retrieve their materials. They may also call the library during operating hours to request that items be placed into the lockers, and patrons will be given a code at the time of their call.
This project is made possible in part by ARPA funds from the U.S. Institute of Museum and Library Services as administered by the Pennsylvania Department of Education, Office of Commonwealth Libraries.

Tips For Holiday Cookie Cutting
Baking is a tradition in many households, and goodies include cakes, pies, and cookies. Cookies are a tradition passed down through the ages. In medieval Europe, small spiced cookies were exchanged as treats, and people still bake and share gingerbread cookies today.
Cut cookies are especially prominent during the holiday season, with some families having favorite cookie cutter shapes and dough recipes. Certain techniques can make baking sessions easier and
help to ensure consistent results any time of year.
Working on a lightly floured, cool surface, such as a cutting board or stone counter top, is recommended. Bakers should never work on a warm surface, which can cause dough to spread and stick.
The dough can be rolled out between two sheets of baking or parchment paper to prevent it from sticking. Betty Crocker recommends a thickness of about 1/8 inch, unless noted in the recipe. The parchment paper also enables
rolled-out dough to be easily transferred to a refrigerator or elsewhere.
When rolling out dough, portioning the dough into a few smaller amounts allows it to roll out more easily. This will also help it to chill more readily.
Cookies cut most easily when the dough is chilled. The dough should be refrigerated for as long as possible, ideally an hour or moreeven overnight. The more chilled, the firmer the dough will be.
Frisby Participates In Parade
Middletown resident Maria Frisby took part in her alma mater Penn State’s homecoming parade in State College on Oct. 21. Her parade escort was Billy Darnell Nolen of Middletown. She also met Centre County Commissioner Steven G. Dershem. Other pageant queens or former queens in the parade included Miss Pennsylvania 2022 Alysa Bainbridge and Miss Pennsylvania Volunteer 2023 Abby Traxler.
Maria graduated from Middletown Area High School; HACC, Central Pennsylvania’s Community College; and Penn State University. She was also scheduled to be in the 2022 Cargill Holiday Parade in downtown Harrisburg on Nov. 19. She was recently interviewed for an upcoming edition of the magazine 50 Plus Life.
Rubber rolling pin rings that slip onto each side of the rolling pin can help ensure that the dough is being rolled out to a uniform thickness.
Cookie cutters should be dipped in flour with each cut. It is a good idea to work from the center and move out to the edges when cutting out designs. When cutting, it is a good idea to maximize space and avoid scraps and rerolling.
Some expert bakers say that metal cookie cutters cut cleaner than plastic ones. Whichever cutter is used, the cookie should be cut by pressing straight down. The cookie cutter should not be twisted or jiggled when being used. Doughs with a high butter content can help, as the extra grease helps separate the dough from the cutters.
If cut cookies have gotten warmer, placing them in the freezer for a few minutes will help them firm up again before baking. This will help to ensure the cookies will not spread or become misshapen while baking.
Extra steps may seem like they will take a lot of time. However, the extra effort and attention to detail may help produce better results.
The SSBVM Virtue Awards are awarded monthly at Seven Sorrows of the Blessed Virgin Mary School in Middletown. These awards highlight a different virtue, such as kindness, diligence and patience, each month. The purpose of the award is to encourage members of the entire student body to be mindful of their actions and exemplify traits of that virtue throughout the month and beyond.

School Bus Stop Safety Tips Posted
The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (Penn DOT) recently reinforced the importance of school transportation safety and highlighted the potential school transportation challenges posed by changing daylight conditions. The results of Operation Safe Stop, an annual school bus enforcement and education initiative that was held on Oct. 19, were also announced.
Operation Safe Stop data revealed that participating school districts and law enforcement agencies reported witnessing 155 violations of the law, down from the 252 reported last year. The initiative is held in conjunction with local and state police departments, school districts, and pupil transportation providers to conduct enforcement, raise public awareness about the consequences of improper passing of school buses, and reduce occurrences.
The School Bus Stopping Law requires motorists to stop at least 10 feet from the bus when approaching a school bus with its red lights
flashing and stop arm extended. Motorists approaching from all directions are required to stop. The only exception to this law is when motorists encounter a school bus stopping on the opposite side of a divided highway when lanes of the highway are clearly separated by a divider, such as a concrete barrier or grassy median.
Some safety tips for students to remember while waiting for or loading and unloading the bus include getting to the school bus stop five minutes early, so they will not have to run across the road to catch the bus. When waiting for the bus, students should stay away from traffic.
Students should line up at least five giant steps away from the curb or the roadway to wait for the bus. Children should never run after the school bus if it has already left the bus stop. Children should never push when getting on or off the school bus.
