Supporting first responders, one beard at
BY ADRIAN ESCHENWALD
Every November, many Americans say goodbye to their boyfriends’ and husbands’ clean-shaven faces while men take part in the nationwide No Shave November movement. The annual tradition involves ditching the razor for one month, and it has been observed by men in the United States for over a decade. For many participants, the month is simply an excuse to try growing that Tom Selleck-inspired mustache they’ve always wanted to have. But for some men, including first responders in nearly every part of Lancaster County, the shaving fast is a way to support other emergency service workers who are battling cancer.
In 2013, East Hempfield Township police officer Bill Watt was diagnosed with cancer and underwent treatment. After personally experiencing the emotional stress and financial burden involved with treatment, Watt wished to create an initiative to support other people who are battling cancer. The following year, Watt asked East Hempfield Township’s chief of police to waive the department’s policy that prohibits officers from growing facial hair during November. For a minimum donation, officers were permitted to grow a beard
for the month, after which the money was donated to the Ann B. Barshinger Cancer Institute in Lancaster. The fundraiser, named Beards for Brothers, was officially registered as a nonprofit organization this year.
In 2015, Watt teamed up with West Hempfield Township police officer Rich Bowermaster to expand Beards for Brothers. The two officers’ primary goal was to advocate for first responders
fighting cancer by offering them financial and emotional support, as well as raising awareness of cancer and urging other police departments to get involved.
“(Watt and I) both work in adjoining departments, so we’ve known eachother for a long time,” Bowermaster said. “He reached out to ask if I wanted to join (Beards for Brothers), and of course, it was a no-brainer.”
After the first year, Watt and
Bowermaster expanded Beards for Brothers to support other emergency service workers in addition to police officers. The initiative quickly grew into a county-wide fundraiser that police officers, firefighters and EMS clinicians in nearly every borough participate in every year. “We decided to open it up to (support) any first responder who has cancer. We all have an important role and support

Like many towns in Lancaster County, East Petersburg has a rich history and roots that are centuries old. Over the decades, the area has undergone many changes as it has evolved into a vibrant community that hosts music festivals and events that highlight local businesses, and the town has recently welcomed many new residents as it continues to grow. Amidst the steady growth and evolution of East Petersburg, the East Petersburg Historical Society (EPHS) is making an effort to preserve the history that made the community what it is today. EPHS is located at 1905 State St. in East Petersburg, where it hosts a variety of programs and manages the Daniel Wolf House year-round. The museum is the former home of Daniel Wolf and his wife, Polly, who founded what was then known as Petersburg in 1812. EPHS was established in 1976 with a mission to preserve memorabilia from East Petersburg’s past, and the group purchased
In 2019, Beards for Brothers began to support A Week Away Foundation through its annual No Shave November fundraiser.

When someone tries trapshooting, they will experience much more than just hitting a clay target, said Tod Neifert, president of Manheim Clay Sports and member of the Manheim Sportsmen’s Association.
“Young shooters that take up trapshooting sports learn great skills,” he shared. “On top of shooters learning safety, sportsmanship and shooting skills, they also learn to work through difficult times, concentration during distractions and that
there is value learning from the veteran shooters.”
One of the things Tod enjoys most about the sport is its inclusivity. “Trapshooting is for all shooters, not just males, not just females, not just young or old, and there are shooters that stand and shooters that are in a wheelchair. It is for all,” he said. “Because of the support of the Manheim Sportsmen’s Association, the joy of trapshooting is within reach of all young shooters in the Manheim area.”
As Tod explained, five young local trapshooters got together
to try the sport for fun at a different trap club. “They all began to improve and enjoy the competition and camaraderie of trapshooting,” he said. “With all the boys being from Manheim, Jim Shreiner and Matt Powronzik, with the support of Kurt Diffenderfer, began reaching out and offering the boys to shoot at Manheim Sportsmen’s Association.”
The students, who all attend Manheim Central High School, have achieved great success and improvement in their disciplines this year, Tod noted. He
explained that there are three disciplines in amateur trapshooting. “The disciplines are singles, handicap and doubles,” he said. “Singles trapshooting is when you shoot from five different angled positions that are 16 yards from the trap house, where the clay targets are thrown.” In handicap, shooters fire from different yardages, based on their skill level. In doubles, two birds are thrown at the same time. In all disciplines, the clay targets are thrown at approximately 35 miles per hour, Tod said.

each other somehow,” said Bowermaster. “Dispatchers have a tough job, and police officers work side by side with EMS and fire departments when we arrive on scene.”
Over the last decade, police departments in areas as far as Pittsburgh have joined the movement, and businesses throughout Lancaster County have supported Beards for Brothers through sponsorships and donations. In addition to the minimum donation from each participant, Beards for Brothers raises money for cancer patients by selling merchandise on its website, www .beardsforbrothers.org. Every year, Beards for Brothers selects different Lancaster-based individuals to support, and the fundraiser has benefited local nonprofit A Week Away Foundation for the past five years. A Week Away Foundation funds and organizes respite weeks for local families experiencing a life-threatening illness.
Beards for Brothers invites members of the public to attend
First Responders Night Out from 5:30 to 11 p.m. on Friday, Dec. 6, at Olde Village Mill, 1350 Village Road, Strasburg. The event will feature food, live music, a silent auction and various activities, and all proceeds will benefit first responders battling cancer. Beards for Brothers will also host a fundraising event on Wednesday, Nov. 27, at Starview Brews, 224 Locust St., Columbia. For each beer purchased during the evening, one dollar will be donated to to first responders and their immediate families who are fighting cancer.

Church sets craft show, concert
St. Peter’s Evangelical Lutheran Church, 10 Delp Road, Lancaster, will host its sixth annual craft show on Saturday, Nov. 30, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. The event will take place at the on-site Family Life Center.
The craft show will feature handmade items from more than 40 vendors; new this year are shell art, fluid painting, and acrylic skin jewelry.
The Manheim Township Lions Club will offer breakfast sandwiches and light lunch items for purchase.
The event is free and
open to the community.
In addition, St. Peter’s will present a portion of George Frideric Handel’s “Messiah” on Sunday, Dec. 15, at 4 and 7 p.m.
The church will present the Christmas section of Handel’s masterpiece oratorio. The community chorus of more than 100 singers is under the direction of Tom Berdos, music director at St. Peter’s. It is accompanied by Deborah Berdos, St. Peter’s organist, and a 26-piece professional orchestra.
The oratorio’s text is drawn directly from Scripture. “Messiah” has
been performed across the globe since its premiere in Dublin in 1742.
The Dec. 15 concerts at

the Daniel Wolf House in 1994. The Daniel Wolf House is a treasure trove of old artifacts, photos and historical records that the organization makes available to educate local residents.
EPHS has accumulated its collection of memorabilia and educational displays over many years with the help of donations from local residents. Many community members have donated items such as journals and letters, and the museum’s displays feature wooden replicas of buildings in East Petersburg, including many structures that are no longer standing. In the 1980s, a local Eagle Scout donated his project that shows a chronological view of East Petersburg’s history since the arrival of settlers in the 1800s.

display during the East Petersburg Historical Society’s 2023 Christmas open house.
featured in a display at the Daniel Wolf House.
“I just don’t want East Petersburg to be forgotten,” said Samuel Maurer IV, president of EPHS and a lifelong resident of the town. “A lot of people are moving here, and we like to share our history and tell them why that building’s there or why this alley goes down that street.”
Samuel recalled riding a bicycle through town as a child, and he remembers watching the homes being constructed on Hershey Avenue in the 1960s. In 1985, Chester Maurer, Samuel’s great-uncle, created a wooden replica of the wooden well pump that served as East Petersburg’s main water source in bygone eras. Samuel said he watched Chester make the replica, and the pump is now
EPHS regularly organizes community events and educational programs to highlight the area’s history, including a presentation about the East Pete Bulldogs football team in October. Two coaches from the former football program told stories from games and shared pictures of old teams at East Petersburg Community Park, and many attendees spotted their young selves in the photos. The coaches also donated an assortment of old jerseys and team jackets to EPHS. EPHS invites members of the community to celebrate the holiday season and peer into the past at its Christmas open house on Saturday, Dec. 7. The event will take place from 5 to 9 p.m. at the Daniel Wolf House, and it will include light refreshments, Christmas music, a silent auction, a model train display and tours of the decorated museum.

Each of the Manheim shooters has events that he gravitates to, Tod noted. Shooters Chase Kirchner, Avery Kirchner, Andrew Waddington and Joel Hershey represented Manheim Central FFA at the Lancaster County FFA competition earlier this year and won first place.
Individually, Chase achieved shooting both 25 and 50 straight while competing at the Pennsylvania state shoot in Elysburg. Avery won individual champion as the high-scoring shooter at the Lancaster County FFA shooting competition. Andrew won the Doubles Championship Class D runner-up at the Westy Hogans in Elysburg. He also won the Singles Junior Class Runner-up Champion, shooting a 98 of 100. Joel has won awards in six events: Junior Singles Champion and Junior
Handicap Champion in the 128th Anniversary Shoot at Glen Rock Shooting Club, Junior Handicap Champion and Junior Doubles Champion at the George Landis Jr. Memorial Shoot at Glen Rock Shooting Club and Junior Handicap Champion and Class C High All-Around Champion in Elysburg.
Leonidas Neifert has achieved the ranking of All-American.
“In the 2024 season, Leonidas is ranked 18th in the world in amateur trapshooting in the Sub-Junior Category,” Tod stated. “He also achieved the honor of being named to the Pennsylvania state team.” In the 2024 season, Leonidas amassed more than 40 awards in each of the three disciplines.
“The group’s success would not be possible if they wouldn’t have found a sportsman’s club
to accept them with open arms. The Manheim Sportsmen’s Association did exactly that,” Tod commented. He added that the association emphasizes safety first, and he noted that club members serve as mentors for the young shooters.
Tod is optimistic about the future of trapshooting in Manheim. “It is refreshing to see families accompanying their young shooters to the club,” he said. “It is exciting to see the veteran trapshooting members of Manheim Sportsmen’s Association mentoring the young shooters. It is a symbiotic relationship where the young shooters learn from skilled veteran shooters that have already experienced the problems and difficulties that young shooters will see. The veteran shooters have a deep sense of pride as they mentor and pass on their skills to the next generation of shooters.”
Tod noted that with the support of the Manheim Sportsmen’s Association, a youth trapshooting program is forming now.
“Trapshooting is a safe, fun sport that will challenge every person. As Manheim Clay Sports is a new organization, we are actively looking for community support,” Tod said, noting that anyone interested in supporting the organization or learning more may email him at Neif -
