StoryWalk unveiled at Berks Nature

BY FRANCINE FULTON

In May of 2022, Community Courier readers were invited to take a short drive to enjoy a StoryWalk trail located on the grounds of the arboretum at the Reading Public Museum. The trail, offered by the museum in partnership with Berks County Public Libraries, features laminated pages from storybooks that are attached to metal posts. As

visitors walk along the path, they are directed to the next page of the story.

On Aug. 1, Berks County Public Libraires unveiled another StoryWalk trail at Berks Nature, The Nature Place. Children from the Berks Nature Preschool assisted with the unveiling of the StoryWalk at the first signpost, which revealed the cover page of the story.

Vendors will be located in the upper parking lot. “We have a good number of vendors,” said Riordan.

BY FRANCINE FULTON

Col. Jacob Morgan American Legion Post 537, located at 4499 N. Twin Valley Road, Morgantown, will present a pork barbecue on Saturday, Aug. 19, from 11 a.m. until sold out. In addition, the band Shaken will play from 1 to 5 p.m. in the pavilion. Attendees should bring folding chairs or blankets for seating.

The pork barbecue, which is being held in lieu of the post’s annual chicken barbecue and clam bake, will be prepared on-site. Attendees

may choose from a variety of side dishes such as corn, coleslaw and macaroni and cheese. Soda and water will also be available.

“There will be a big group from the post who will get there early, and they will smoke the pork,” explained auxiliary vice president Nicole Hallen. “The auxiliary will get together the night before and prepare the sides.”

Meals will be available to eat on-site or for takeout.

The American Legion is a social and veterans’ service organization. Anyone who has served in the military

is eligible to join. There is also a ladies’ auxiliary and a Sons of the American Legion chapter, which are open to anyone over the age of 18 who is an immediate family member of an American Legion member or a deceased veteran. The post also includes the American Legion Riders, who are motorcycle enthusiasts.

“The Legionnaires have served in the military. Then you have the auxiliary and the Sons of the American Legion. You need to provide a

DD214 or some documentation that proves that you are related to someone in the military,” explained Hallen. “Social memberships are also offered. With that, you would have to have two people in the post as sponsors.”

Those interested in membership may stop by the post to complete an application. Information about joining the organization will also be available at the event on Aug. 19.

“We are always looking for new members and volunteers, especially Legionnaires,” Hallen added, noting that the membership includes veterans from the Korean War and the Vietnam War.

Post members take part in various community service projects and hold fundraising events, such as an annual golf outing. The Legion Riders hold a bike show each June.

Last May, the American Legion installed a Little Free Library, which invites people to “take a book or share a book.”

The post also hosts events that are open to the public, including bingo, trivia nights and karaoke, and seasonal family events, such as a Halloween party. “We have fun,” Hallen said. “We are like a family.”

and face painting,” Riordan noted.

The MagniFest is named to honor the Blessed Virgin Mary. The Magnificat, also known as the Song of Mary, is the prayer of praise that Mary prayed when visiting her cousin Elizabeth. The timing of the festival is based on the celebration of the Feast of the Assumption on Aug. 15, which marks Mary’s

ascension into heaven.

“We had a couple hundred people last year, but we are hoping for 500 since we have brought in Marie Miller,” Riordan said.

guests were invited to walk the trail and read “The Last Tree” written by author María Quintana Silva and illustrated by Silvia Álvarez, with Spanish translation by Jon Brokenbrow.

Participants in the ceremony included Stephanie Williams, interim administrator for Berks County Public Libraries; Berks Nature president Kimberly Murphy; Susan Banks, Pennsylvania deputy secretary of education; and Heather Sharpe, director of the Bureau of Library Development, Office of Commonwealth Libraries.

A StoryWalk is a project that was first created by Anne Ferguson and the Kellogg-Hubbard Library in Montpelier, Vt. The goal for the project is to promote both physical activity and early literacy by combining a children’s book with a walking trail.

Williams noted that while

StoryWalks have been used around the nation since their creation by Ferguson in 2007, storybook displays debuted in Berks County in 2020. There are now eight permanent and seasonal library StoryWalks within the county, including the Muhlenberg Rail Trail StoryWalk on Railroad Avenue in Temple and the Boyertown Park StoryWalk, located at 417 S. Madison St., Boyertown. All of the locations of the StoryWalk displays can be found at www.berkslibraries.org/ storywalks.

Plans call for the StoryWalk at Berks Nature to be changed four times per year. “Inside, there are different display boards that we change out,” explained Emily Orischak, community relations coordinator for Berks County Public Libraries. “The location of the posts won’t change, but the contents inside will.”

“Our hope is that individuals and families who visit the beautiful grounds of the Nature Place will enjoy the stories presented at the StoryWalk,” said Williams at the unveiling ceremony. “As the seasons change, visitors can come back and read new stories, as the StoryWalk will be updated quarterly.”

The StoryWalk at Berks Nature, The Nature Place is located at 575 St. Bernardine St., Reading. It follows the path from the parking lot to the Teaching Garden, which is just under a quarter of a mile. The StoryWalk is open to visitors from dawn to dusk. Visitors are encouraged to plan their visit when the Nature Place is open so that they can also enjoy the center’s free programming. The Nature Place is open on Tuesdays through Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. To learn more, visit www.berksnature.org/ the-nature-place.

Saint Peter’s Village home to Cars and Coffee

BY FRANCINE FULTON

Combining his interest in cars along with his love of Saint Peter’s Village, Aaron Phillips, a 2022 graduate of Owen J. Roberts High School, is the founder of Cars and Coffee, a car show held in the historic village on the second Sunday of the month, weather permitting, from 8 to 11 a.m. Saint Peter’s Village is a popular community attraction that features small shops and eateries, but it is perhaps best known for the scenic French Creek, which flows over the rocks behind the shops. Many visitors come to view the cascading French Creek falls as well as enjoy the surrounding hiking trails.

Phillips said having a car show not only showcases the scenic location but also encourages visitors to shop or dine at the small businesses. “I have always lived here and wanted to bring car culture to the village,” said Phillips. “And, of course, I love helping out the village and helping it gain popularity.”

During the car shows, visitors are encouraged to

purchase coffee and breakfast items from one of the village’s shops and then view the cars, which are parked in the lot across from the Saint Peter’s Village post office, 3300 Saint Peter’s Road. “(The car show is from) 8 to 11 (a.m.), but people can stay however long they want to in the village,” noted Phillips. “There are shops and things for people to do.”

The car shows, which are free for spectators and vehicle owners, began three years ago after Phillips received permission from the corporation that owns the village property. “We originally were in the paved lot, but they asked us to move to the post office lot,” he said. “People still go and get their coffee and walk down to the car show.”

Cars and Coffee attracts anywhere from 50 to 80 cars each month. “(Visitors have said) that they have never seen a car show in such a unique environment,” Phillips said. “We get new faces and different cars every month, and it’s all varieties of cars. We get American cars, Japanese cars, classic and new.”

Phillips, whose parents own a shop in the village, is also a young entrepreneur. He started his own business, Devotion Detailing, during the pandemic. “People were not using their cars ... so I would come and detail (their cars) in the driveway,” he explained. “Along with detailing, I buy and sell cars, so I have taken cars (to the car show) through the years.” He also is a parttime student studying automotive technology.

Phillips especially enjoys it when people visit the village for the first time after learning about the car show. “It excites me every time I see the cars pulling up,” he shared. “It makes me feel sure I am doing something right. It’s such a nice environment to sit for a while, and you have the added benefit of the shops for people to check out.”

Saint Peter’s Village is located off Route 23 on Saint Peter’s Road in Warwick Township. To learn more about the car show, search for “Saint Peter’s Cars and Coffee” on Facebook or contact Phillips at aphillips6698@gmail.com.
