Pequea Valley
Imagine literacy
BY ANN MEAD ASH
For some time now, the Together Initiative Network (TIN), which includes Pequea Valley School District (PVSD), along with area churches, ministries, and businesses has had a goal of providing the support needed to have 90% of local children reading by third grade and reading proficiently by fourth grade. The goal is based on data that shows individuals are 10 times more likely to end up in generational poverty if they are not reading by third grade.
According to Lisa Eckert, PVSD director of early learning since January of 2020, one way to reach that goal is to put books in the hands of children from birth to age 5. “We know when there are books in the home, chances are parents will be reading (to children),” said Eckert, who noted that in low-income homes that can be a challenge. “Those families must meet basic needs before
thinking of extra things,” she said. “Our goal is to make sure families don’t have to worry about that extra thing like books.”
For about seven years, PVSD has made more books available to more children by taking part in Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library, an international program
administered locally through the Literacy Council of LancasterLebanon. For a nominal cost per book, 225 PVSD preschoolers receive a book in the mail each month. “So we are giving out close to 3,000 books a year,” noted Eckert.

Maintaining older vehicles
New cars have been costly for quite some time, so motorists may wonder how they can get more mileage out of their existing vehicles.
Drivers can take the following steps to keep their existing cars running smoothly for years to come.
- Take care of the timing belt. Engines may get all the glory, but they cannot run smoothly without a fully functional timing belt, which helps to synchronize movements of various components. Owner’s manuals may note when to replace the timing belt, but they generally must be replaced every 60,000 to 105,000 miles. Although replacement is required infrequently, drivers can ask their mechanics to keep an eye on their timing belts. During the early months of
the pandemic, many people learned that infrequent driving can cause a timing belt to fail before it reaches the projected mile marker. Aging drivers should keep this fact in mind if they do not drive as much as they used to.
- Take care of the brakes and associated components. The experts at Popular Mechanics urge drivers of older vehicles to replace their brake fluid every two years. Popular Mechanics also advises drivers whose cars are more than seven years old to replace the rubber brake lines when major brake work is required.
- Pay attention to oil levels. The older engines get, the more oil they burn. For this reason, owners of older vehicles should check their oil levels
The importance of regular
Taking care of a vehicle involves more than just maintaining the equipment under the hood. There are a number of steps involved in keeping a car or truck in top form, and that includes regular car washes. Car washes keep a vehicle shiny and clean, which can help it look good while sitting in the driveway or cruising the highway. However, regular car washes are more than cosmetic.
• Protect from the sun: A car that is routinely and properly washed and waxed is less vulnerable to damage from the sun’s ultraviolet rays.
more often than they would if their vehicles were brand new. These checks also provide a way to discover leaks before they lead to potentially significant issues.
- Don’t skip maintenance appointments. Even if you’re still driving less due to the pandemic, it’s best to keep up with maintenance on any car, especially if the car is older. Routine tune-ups and oil changes, which may need to become more frequent the older the vehicle gets, can keep cars running smoothly and protect the engine over the long haul.
The rising cost of new cars may compel people to keep their cars longer than they might have anticipated. A few simple maintenance measures may help to prolong the life of a vehicle.

Four signs tires need to be replaced
Cars are a significant investment, which underscores the importance of vehicle maintenance. Maintenance is more than just tending to what’s under the hood. Tires also require drivers’ attention, as aging, damaged tires pose a safety risk and also compromise vehicle performance. Tires can be easily overlooked, but the following are four signs tires need to be replaced.
1. Worn tread: The automotive experts at AutoZone note that tread depth is the most prevalent indicator that a tire needs to be replaced. AutoZone notes that tread depth should always be at least 1/16 of an inch throughout the tire. Depth should be measured across the tread and around the circumference. If the tread is at or below 1/16 of an inch, the tire should be replaced.
2. Bulges, gouges, or cracks: Geico notes that a deflated tire bulges at the sides, and that can compromise the safety of everyone in the vehicle. AutoZone says bulges occur when air gets between the inner liner and outer rubber layers, which can happen after hitting a curb or driving over a sizable pothole. A gouge or cut that is deeper than the outer layer of the tire also necessitates replacement.
3. Poor grip: Drivers may be able to feel certain tire problems, including poor grip, while driving. In such instances, tires may feel as though they are slipping. The tire experts at Firestone note that low tread can reduce tire traction and cause wheels to slip, which may be more noticeable when accelerating from a stop or driving on wet roads. Drivers who feel
their tires are slipping can test the tread and replace tires that are low.
4. Vibration: Vibration is another issue drivers may feel rather than see. Identifying the cause requires noting where the vibrations are felt. Geico notes that vibration or thumping that feels like it’s coming from under the seats may indicate the tires are not balanced. A suspension issue could be to blame if the steering wheel feels like it’s vibrating. Either feeling should be brought to the attention of a mechanic immediately. Tire issues affect vehicle performance and compromise the safety of drivers, their passengers, and fellow motorists. When vehicles are not performing at peak capacity, drivers should not overlook various tire issues as a potential cause of such troubles.
Maintenance mile markers
• Preserve the vehicle’s value: Drivers who plan to sell or trade in their vehicles in the future should realize that a well-maintained car can bring in as much as 20% more for above-average condition, according to Kelley Blue Book. Maintaining a clean and shiny vehicle can protect its long-term value.
• Remove salt: Drivers who live near the ocean or in areas where roads are salted in the winter to melt snow may have cars with high salt corrosion rates. Unless it’s washed off frequently, salt can take its toll, leading to damage.
• Extend the life of paint: Dirt and debris can build up on the paint surface and eventually lead to scratches and other damage. Bird droppings and sap can be corrosive. Washing will help remove grime and protect the paint in the process.
• Improve fuel efficiency: Drivers have felt pain in their wallets at the fuel pump in recent years. Dirty cars may be less aerodynamic and less fuel efficient as a result. Keeping a car clean may improve its fuel efficiency.
• Maintain the interior: Car washes are not only about the exterior. Keeping a clean and tidy interior can help improve the air quality inside of the vehicle and prolong the life of upholstery, mats, and interior components.
Car washes should be a routine part of vehicle maintenance. Professional car washes tend to be more ecofriendly than washing a car at home, so drivers are urged to investigate their service plans and features.
Modern automobiles are technological marvels. As advancements in automotive technology have made cars more reliable than ever, drivers may feel as though vehicle ownership also is more hands-off than ever before. Though it’s true that built-in diagnostic technology is designed to alert drivers to certain issues, it can still benefit motorists to recognize when certain issues may arise.
Cars and the people who drive them are different, so mileage intervals are not always the best measuring stick for maintenance issues. However, the following rundown can serve
as a guidebook for drivers who want to know what to expect at various mileage intervals.
• 30,000 miles: The experts at Auto Trader note that disposable engine air filters usually last between 15,000 and 30,000 miles. If it’s been about 30,000 miles since the engine air filter has been replaced, it would be a good time to replace this important part, which prevents components like dirt and debris from getting into the engine. This also might be a good time to replace the fuel filter, which prevents debris from clogging fuel injectors.
• 50,000 to 60,000 miles: It’s about this time that
drivers may need to replace their vehicle batteries. Little-used vehicles may need a new battery much earlier, as lengthy periods of little or no use adversely affect the life expectancy of vehicle batteries. Brakes also may need to be replaced about this time, as the experts at AutoZone note that most drivers get between two and five years out of a set of brake pads. If that sounds like a significant range, it is, and that’s because driver behavior is a significant variable affecting the life of the pads. Drivers who brake hard will likely need to replace their brake pads with greater

In 1701, William Penn traveled the ancient Indian Minquas Trail, also known as the Conestoga Road, through Gap-in-the-Hills, a part of the land the English king had bequeathed to him. This trail wandered through thick forests, which had never heard the sound of ax or saw. Oak, ash, maple, walnut and chestnut trees grew in such close proximity that the path beneath was difficult to distinguish even on the sunniest day. Penn was on his way to Conestoga on the Susquehanna River to renew a treaty with the Native Americans.
The Penn Rock on today’s Chestnut Street in Gap stands as a reminder that Native hosts had prepared a feast of greeting. Penn partied and stayed overnight near the local spring in company with Native American chiefs, who came to escort him the rest of the way to their village.
In 1710, Robert and Jean Gault from Ireland settled near the Welsh Mountain, close to the source of the Pequea Creek. The Gaults, credited to be the first real settlers to the area, had a hand in petitioning for the formation of Lancaster County and in founding the Pequea Presbyterian Church, built in 1724 on what we know today as Cambridge Road.
As pioneers moved into the valley, clearing the land was the primary need for those who wished to become prosperous farmers. The abundant quantity of wood was used for housing and heat and served as the sturdy base for the ubiquitous Conestoga wagon.
Within 100 years, there were few primeval forests left as more and more Europeans discovered the potential of this rich valley soil and swiftly running streams.
By the turn of the 20th century, fewer of those trees growing in Penn’s
time were to be found. E. Embree Wildman’s 1933 edition of “Penn’s Woods, 1682-1932” recorded one of those rare trees growing in the cemetery of Pequea Presbyterian Church in Salisbury Township.
Fast forward another 75-plus years. By 2000, most of those few remaining original trees were now rotting into dust, their ancient lives over. Alert citizens, recognizing an era coming to an end in the increasingly populous Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Delaware region, formed the Penjerdel organization to preserve the remaining pre-Colonial history of the region. Volunteers gather and plant the nuts and seeds from those still surviving Penn oak trees. The relatively few that sprout grow into saplings that carry the genes of those long-gone forests which had greeted William Penn 300 years ago. The
saplings are then offered to select civic organizations to continue being nurtured. Aware of William Penn’s 1701 meeting with the Susquahannocks in Gap, Penjerdel member Erik Burro, who portrays William Penn for the annual living history events

in Salisbury Township, offered the Historical Society of Salisbury Township a 3-year-old sapling grown from an acorn of a Penn oak tree that had recently died in Salem, N.J.
With no remaining primeval forest in Salisbury Township, the historical society was honored to have a living connection to its founding pioneers, and to the vision that William Penn had of a peaceful coexistence for diverse races and cultures.
The community is welcome to join the historical society at the Pequea Presbyterian Church, 273 Cambridge Road, Gap, at noon on Sunday, Oct. 6, to celebrate the dedication of this bit of DNA from the region’s past.

frequency than drivers who brake slowly.
• 50,000 to 90,000 miles: As noted, there is no uniform guideline governing when vehicle components will need to be replaced. Hoses are a good example of that, as recommendations regarding when to replace hoses range from 50,000 to 90,000 miles. That’s a significant range, but drivers can be on the safe side and start discussing the status of their hoses with their mechanics around
the 50,000-mile marker. It’s unlikely the hoses will make it all the way to 90,000 miles before they need to be replaced, but drivers can keep that mileage marker in mind and aim to replace the hoses before that point even if no issue has arisen. Timing belts also tend to fail between 80,000 and 100,000 miles, so this is another part to consider replacing as a vehicle reaches this point.
These mileage markers are not set in stone and should only serve as a guideline for drivers who want to stay ahead of vehicle repairs. Drivers also are urged to discuss any additional changes that might be necessary with their mechanics during routine maintenance appointments.

Imagination Library does more than simply mail books to children. Care is taken in selecting books that speak to the child’s developmental level. “All the books are age appropriate,” said Eckert. “Infants get board books or touchand-feel-books,” she added. Parents of PVSD children from birth to age 5 may visit https:// tinyurl.com/33mru83y to sign up for the program. “Families fill out the form, and we contact (the families),
and we submit the form,” said Eckert. “Within a few months they start receiving books once a month.”
Eckert is devoted to and knowledgeable about the early learning program in PVSD, having first taken part as a Community Action Partnership employee in 2018. On the day she was interviewed for this story, she wore a black T-shirt emblazoned with the words “It is a good day to read a book” in a variety of
bright colors. Although the cost per book is nominal, the cost for the program per month runs about $500 or about $30 a year per child. “We are always looking for sponsorships and support for this program,” said Eckert, who noted the fees cover the book and shipping.

Before Route 30 even existed, Enos Miller established a truck repair and gas station on Lincoln Highway East. His wife, Anna, who had a knack for preparing home-cooked meals, began offering food items to Enos’ customers. Word quickly spread about Anna’s Pennsylvania Dutch specialties, such as chicken and waffles, and soon, diners were coming from far and wide just for a taste of her cooking. As demand for Anna’s dishes grew, the dining area expanded, eventually taking over the space where the repair shop once stood.
In 1948, after nearly two decades of serving guests,
Anna and Enos sold the restaurant to longtime employees Beatrice and Thomas Strauss. Under their care, the restaurant flourished, and in 1957, they officially renamed it Miller’s Smorgasbord, introducing the nowfamous “seven sweets and

The Strauss family continued to innovate, and in 1973, it expanded Miller’s baking capabilities by establishing Miller’s Bakery next to the restaurant.

water service company, but he still finds time to do the Paradise-Strasburg Meals on Wheels route every other Monday by himself. “I thought I could work that (volunteer time) in,” shared Charlie. “An hour-and-ahalf or two hours could fit into my schedule.”
Both volunteers work with Marie Glass, Paradise point person for Lancaster Meals on Wheels. In her role, Glass, who has been involved with the program for more than a decade, coordinates the Paradise program with Lancaster Meals on Wheels, which serves about 1,000 recipients per year. Meals provided by the Lancaster program are delivered to the Together Community Center (TCC), 3293 Lincoln Highway East, Paradise,
each Monday through Friday. One hot meal and one cold meal are included each weekday for each of up to 30 clients.
Meals are provided for a nominal fee. Clients receive five ounces of meat, five ounces of starch, along with vegetables each day, and meals are available for recipients who need to follow a customized diet, including those on low-sodium, diabetic, low vitamin K, vegetarian, and gluten-free diets, as well as soft diets, puree diets, and others. Hot meals may include ham and pineapple gravy or a shrimp dish, while cold meals may include a turkey and cheddar or other type of sandwich. Salads are sometimes served in lieu of sandwiches.
Mike said that when he
first began volunteering in 2019, the cold meals were still made in the basement of the Leacock Presbyterian Church. “That interaction was kind of neat,” recalled Mike. “It was very organized and coordinated, and it was fun.” Mike also remembered that there was more interaction between drivers and meal recipients prior to the advent of COVID-19, and he misses that.
Currently, the Paradise organization could use a few volunteer drivers. Charlie said that he sees the effort as an opportunity to give back to the community. “Marie had signs up that she needed drivers,” noted Charlie, who began driving for Meals on Wheels in 2015. “My parents had been involved in Meals on Wheels,” he pointed out noting that his mother,
LDHL awards interest-free loans
Lancaster Dollars for Higher Learning (LDHL) recently awarded interest-free loans to 362 Lancaster County students to offset the cost of their postsecondary education for the 2024-25 school year. LDHL awarded 355 loans of $1,900 each for a full academic year and seven loans of $950 each for students attending one semester only to applicants who demonstrated financial need. The loans will be applied to tuition expenses at 111 colleges and universities across the country.
Since 1961, LDHL has provided more than $19 million in interest-free loans to Lancaster County students. These loans are made possible by community donations and repayments from previous loans recipients.
LDHL has been able to increase the number of loans provided over its history through the support of individuals and companies, including many past loan recipients and their parents. LDHL has experienced a growing number of Legacy-level donors - individuals,

Ellen, was a coordinator for the organization. “She interviewed people when they signed up to see what their needs were,” said Charlie. His father was an alternate driver. “He was a last-minute call (volunteer),” said Charlie, adding that his father worked on the family farm as well. Although Charlie tries to switch with the other Monday driver when he needs a day off, he knows that having substitutes available is essential to helping senior residents as well as others recovering from illnesses to remain in their own homes.
