Memorial Day observances held in Parkesburg
BY FRANCINE FULTONEven though the Memorial Day parade was canceled on May 18 in Parkesburg because of inclement weather, members of the Pfc. Robert Montgomery VFW Post 4480 conducted their traditional Memorial Day ceremonies at several locations in the area, including cemeteries and at the veterans memorial garden located at the Keystone Valley Fire Department (KVFD). The garden, which was dedicated by KVFD in May 2019, includes a memorial courtyard that honors fallen firefighters and a monument garden that honors servicemen and servicewomen lost in all military conflicts.
VFW past commander Bob McMinn, who filled in for current commander Mark Frohm, who
was unable to attend, presented the introduction at the KVFD memorial.
“We are assembled once again to express severe reverence. This monument represents the resting place of many of our fallen comrades who served in all wars,” McMinn stated. “This is a solemn commemoration for all these men and women and an expression of tribute.”
VFW chaplain Pat Stephan offered a prayer, Bruce Latshaw played taps and VFW members provided a gun salute. Red, white and blue flowers were placed at the memorial, with red symbolizing remembrance, blue symbolizing loyalty and white representing the purity and innocence exhibited by those who gave their lives in service.
Other sites visited during the day included cemeteries in Gumtree
and Cochranville and at Atglen Presbyterian Church, Mount Zion AME Church in Atglen and Our Lady of Consolation Church in Parkesburg. “At Upper Octorara (cemetery), (we visited) the headstone for Robert Montgomery, who our post is named after,” explained Theresa Hardy, post manager and president of the VFW ladies auxiliary. “(We also visited) three personal (sites), including the VFW monument on Main Street across from Rocco and Anna’s, the firehouse in Parkesburg and we have an honor garden in the back of our property where we have headstones for the (deceased) members from our post.”
Other VFW members, as well as ladies auxiliary members who participated in the events, included Scott White, Stephen Spoto, Eugene Ogozaly and

Lions Club sets bench dedication, fundraiser
BY FRANCINE FULTONAs part of an ongoing program, members of the Parkesburg Lions Club will dedicate their next community bench on Saturday, June 1, at 1 p.m. at the Octorara Area Food Cupboard (OAFC), 714 Main St., Parkesburg. The OAFC, which opened its current location in December 2012, is a volunteer-run food cupboard that serves residents in need in the Octorara Area School District region. An open house will follow the dedication.
The bench will be dedicated to Judy Dougherty, who has been the OAFC director since its opening. “Judy has worked tirelessly as the director of the food cupboard and does an absolutely incredible job,” said Lions Club president Robin McKenna. “The club voted to honor her with a bench in her name, and where would be better placement than the Octorara Area Food Cupboard?”
According to the Chester County Food Bank (CCFB), OAFC began in 2005 as a monthly mobile

Suzanne Swindell. Honor guard members included Tammie Heineman, Bob Gouge, Dave Mellema, Ron McCorkle, Vince Santucci, Stephen Pierce and Latshaw, along with flag holders Tim Killinger and Bubba Mack.
Hardy noted that club members meet prior to the ceremonies to plan the event and place U.S. flags at the gravesites of veterans. “We have a list of all the veterans, and we go the weekend before and make sure they have placards and flags and we do the Memorial Day ceremony the following week,” she said. “Typically, the VFW does ceremonies on Memorial Day, but so many people go away, so our post does it the weekend before Memorial Day.”

She noted that this year’s ceremonies were particularly challenging because it was raining throughout the morning. “There are a lot of tears shed and it’s emotionally draining. It’s a long morning. We were all soaking wet,” she said. “But (most of) these
men and women did not have a choice (to serve). They were drafted, and this is least we can do for them. It is really important to remember them.”
The next scheduled event for the Parkesburg VFW, located at 406 W. Fourth Ave., will be a community day on Saturday, June 29, at Minch Park, 111 West St., Parkesburg, beginning at 4 p.m. The VFW will present fireworks at dusk.

“All makes and models are welcome. We are talking tractors, rigs and motorcycles - you name it,” said Shawnie Betts, who is co-chair of the event along with fire company trustee Brandon Maser.
In addition to the car show, there will be food for sale, including chicken barbecue prepared by fire company members. The Taco RV and Cool Summer Ice Cream food trucks will also be on hand, and music will be provided by The 45 Guy, who will spin vinyl records.
The first Cruisin’ in Christiana Car Show was held last fall, but the event fell victim to inclement weather, so organizers decided to change the car show to spring. “We are hoping for better weather, so more people are apt to come out,” said Betts, noting that planning for the event has been going on the past six months. “I would love to see 50-plus cars.”
Those who attend the show will be
asked to vote for their favorite vehicle. There will also be awards in various classes, such as best classic car and best motorcycle. “The community is going to judge. If they come out to see the cars, they will get an entry form to pick the winners,” said Betts, noting that Best of Show will awarded in memory of her father, Terry Walker Sr., a car enthusiast.
Cruisin’ in Christiana is being held on the same day as Saturday on the Porch, a program presented by the Christiana Historical Society on the first Saturday of each month from 8 a.m. to noon. During the event, attendees may purchase hot coffee, hot tea and sweets and enjoy conversation and musical entertainment.
The performer on June 1 will be Phares Blank, who plays accordion music.
In the event of rain, the car show will be held on Saturday, June 8. For more information, visit www.face book.com/christianafirecompany.

SINGING SPRING FOODS
Lions Club
food pantry that would set up in a parking lot in Parkesburg. In 2010, Dougherty took over as lead volunteer of the mobile pantry. Through a collaborative effort between the CCFB, the Parkesburg POINT youth center and local businesses, churches and residents, the OAFC opened a permanent building on Main Street with Dougherty as its director in 2012.
To learn more about the OAFC, visit twww.facebook.com/ OctoraraAreaFoodCupboard or www.octfood.com.
The new bench is one of several that have recently been placed in the Parkesburg area by the club, which has been collecting plastics to earn free benches as part of a recycling program offered by the Trex Company.
The Lions Club is also planning a first-time “tingo” event on Saturday, June 15, at 11 a.m. in fellowship hall at the Parkesburg Baptist Church, 103 West St., Parkesburg. “(Tingo is) a combination of tea and bingo and we are doing it as fundraiser,” said Lions Club member Karen Fronefield, noting that attendees are encouraged to dress in tea attire.
A fee will be charged per ticket, which will include tea, a light lunch, refreshments and 10 games
of bingo. Prizes will be gift cards donated by local businesses.
Proceeds will be used to help fund the Parkesburg Halloween Parade. For tickets, message the “Parkesburg Lions - New & Improved” Facebook page or contact Fronefield at 484-678-4231.
Ongoing programs of the Parkesburg Lions Club include collecting eyeglasses that are recycled and distributed to help people in need and collecting plastics for additional community benches.
The Lions also sponsor the annual Parkesburg Halloween Parade and Easter egg hunt and provide scholarships for seniors at Octorara Junior-Senior High School.
Most recently, club members offered free eye screenings for children at the OABEST Expo held on May 18 and held a White Cane Day collection on April 20 at the new Parkesburg Grocery Outlet to benefit organizations that assist the visually impaired.
“The motto of Lions is ‘We Serve.’ This is the intent behind all the club does,” McKenna said. “These things are ongoing along with helping with any special requests from community members where the club can be of assistance (and supporting) other community
activities and organizations.” The Parkesburg Lions Club is always looking for new members. To learn more, message the Facebook page, contact any Lions Club member or attend a club meeting. Meetings are held on the second and fourth Thursdays of each month at Parkesburg Baptist Church. Those with questions may contact McKenna at 484-247-4080.
