National Night Out scheduled in Providence Township
BY ADRIAN ESCHENWALD
On the first Tuesday of every August, towns across the United States participate in National Night Out. The nationwide tradition was created more than three decades ago to bridge the gaps between law enforcement agencies, neighborhood watches, crime prevention groups, civic associations and volunteers in cities throughout the country. After several decades, National Night Out has spread to every state, and it now involves millions of participants. Each town has developed its own way of observing the tradition, which often incorporates various festivities and community gatherings. But the goal of the event remains unchanged: to strengthen the bond between communities and the police that serve them.
Providence Township will host its National Night Out from 6 to 8 p.m. on Tuesday, Aug. 6.
The event will take place at the Providence Township Municipal Building, located at 200 Mount Airy Road in New Providence. The event will feature complimentary refreshments, including hot dogs, potato chips and ice cream sandwiches. Attendees will also have a chance to participate in various games and activities during National Night Out, including a bounce house and a mechanical bull. The Quarryville Fire Department will be present to hold a candy drop, an activity that entails releasing a pile of sweets from the top of a fire engine’s ladder for children under 13 years old to collect.
Providence Township’s National Night Out will feature various door prizes, which will include gift cards for local businesses and

Chad Snyder appointed to state board of funeral directors
BY ADRIAN ESCHENWALD
As a third-generation funeral director, Chad Snyder has a unique perspective of the profession. In 1947, Chad’s grandfather, Charles F. Snyder, opened a funeral home in downtown Lancaster, and the business grew to offer locations in Millersville, Willow Street, Lititz and other parts of the county. Chad watched his father, Chip Snyder, run the business after Charles retired, and Chad became
the director in 2018. Chad was appointed to the Pennsylvania State Board of Directors earlier this year, and he said he plans to use his experience to bridge the gap between funeral directors and state legislators to benefit Lancaster and communities throughout the state.
Since joining the state board of funeral directors, Chad has taken monthly trips to the capitol to meet with other funeral directors and government officials during
Adventures in nature are closer than you think
BY ADRIAN ESCHENWALD
The United States contains a wealth of beautiful landscapes and striking scenery that can be found in every part of the country. Many Americans and visitors from around the globe are aware of the numerous state and national parks that contain verdant groves and diverse natural biomes that remain largely untouched by human civilization. But in most communities, including Lancaster County, people who seek to experience the beauty of nature don’t need to travel to

public sessions. The meetings incorporate discussions on various issues that impact the funeral industry, such as the evaluation of funeral directors’ licenses and newly proposed legislation that could have cascading effects on funeral services across Pennsylvania. At 42 years old, Chad is the youngest member of the board, and he said he hopes to offer his fresh perspective of the industry to the board’s discussions.
“I’m looked at as the next generation of directors and a new set of eyes,” Chad said. “My
In addition to being the youngest member, Chad is the only member of the state board of funeral directors to operate multiple funeral homes. Chad helped design Charles F. Snyder’s Willow Street location, and he continues to work with his father to run the business. “My dad is still very involved, which I’m very grateful and blessed for,” Chad said. “I think my perspective will be helpful when looking at different situations brought to the board.”
Chad said he hopes to advocate for funeral directors and clients in every community in Pennsylvania in addition to Lancaster County. “I’m taking on an important role not just for the community I live and work in, but to be a shoulder for other directors to lean on when they need help,” added Chad. “Across the board, we want to have the general public have a pleasant experience when the need arises.”
Charles F. Snyder’s Willow Street location will host an educational workshop this October to explore different areas of funeral services and cremation services. For more information, visit www .snyderfuneralhome.com.

Yellowstone to find it; from remote trails scattered across the Southern End to nature parks nestled between the Hempfield area and the Susquehanna River, an outdoor adventure is often only a short drive from home.
On July 11, the Quarryville Library hosted Keith Greenawalt for his program “Adventures in our Natural Parks.” Greenawalt, a Lancaster County native and director of the Dillsburg Area Public Library, highlighted local destinations and historic sites found within a couple hours of Lancaster.
“(Lancaster County) Central Park has always been a favorite of mine, and I spent a lot of time on the Conewago Trail in college,” Greenawalt said. “York has more state parks, but Lancaster has more rail trails.”
Greenawalt said he first became interested in the outdoors as a high school student after he joined the cross-country team, and he discovered several hiking
trails when he would go on runs. Over the years, Greenawalt has accumulated a list of destinations throughout the area, including Muddy Run Park and the Enola Low Grade Trail in the Southern End. Outdoor attractions can be found in other parts of the county as well, including Lake Grubb Nature Park in West Hempfield Township and Blue Rock Park just north of Millersville. Lancaster Conservancy maintains several nature preserves throughout the county, such as Shiprock Woods Nature Preserve in Willow Street.
Greenawalt recommends a few different methods to local residents hoping to find a little slice of quiet in the wilderness: Smartphone applications such as AllTrails allow hikers to find nearby nature paths, and most areas’ local governments have resources for tourists on their official websites. Greenawalt also advised checking local libraries for books on destinations in the community
as well as national parks throughout the country. Alternatively, Greenawalt recommends taking a bird’s-eye-view approach. “I am a bit of a Google Maps junkie; it’s a good place to start,” Greenawalt said. “If you know where you’re going, look at the big-picture view.”
Greenawalt holds a few other programs at the Quarryville Library throughout the year. During the Museum a Minute program, Greenawalt times himself as he presents a list of destinations, and the audience has an opportunity ask questions
once he is finished. In October, Greenawalt will return to the library for Haunted Lancaster, during which he will discuss ghost stories and folk tales.

PPL Foundation to offer scholarships
To support future leaders in the clean energy transition, PPL Foundation has partnered with a network of schools to provide scholarships to students who are passionate about clean energy, sustainability, decarbonization and grid reliability.
Beginning in 2024, the Brighter Futures scholarship program will award $150,000 annually to students pursuing degrees or technical certification in
fields that support the clean energy transition.
To run the scholarship program, the PPL Foundation has partnered with nine schools: Cedar Crest College, Kentucky State University, New England Institute of Technology, Northampton Community College, Penn State Harrisburg, Smith College,Tennessee State University, Thaddeus Stevens College of Technology and University of Rhode Island.
The chosen schools include colleges and universities that are working to propel important research in renewable energy, energy alternatives and sustainability; women’s colleges and historically black colleges and universities supporting diverse communities and students historically underrepresented in these fields; and technical schools and community colleges that offer programs for the next generation of skilled trade workers in the utility industry.
To be eligible, students must be enrolled in one of the aforementioned institutions, demonstrate

passes for family-friendly experiences such as the Choo Choo Barn in Strasburg. Included in this year’s prizes are two baseballs autographed by Travis Jankowski, a Solanco graduate who plays professional baseball for the Texas Rangers.
“This is our way to bring the community together, but also to thank our first responders. It’s so important to make sure they get recognition for their service,” said Traci Frantz, Providence Township’s administrative assistant. “The goal is to bring everybody together and have a great night of meeting new people, talking to old friends and appreciating both the community and its first responders.”
In addition to the Quarryville Fire Department, firefighters from the Rawlinsville, Refton and Willow Street fire departments will be present at the event to display their engines and meet members of the community.
Providence Township first began holding its own National Night Out in 2018, and the event has been held annually since then, with the exception of a hiatus in 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic. “We have an amazing community here who has supported our National Night Out every year,” Frantz said. “It’s nice to see everybody come together to share that.”
The event will feature a bounce house and other familyfriendly activities.

Comfort and inspiration
BY ANN MEAD ASH
“Today is the day we officially take off our hard hats,” said Herman Bontrager to applause. Bontrager, board chair of the Clinic for Special Children and chair of the Keeping the Promise Building Hope capital campaign, was addressing the gathering at the June 20 ribbon-cutting ceremony and open house held at the new Clinic for Special Children, recently completed at 20 Community Lane, Gordonville.
Bontrager welcomed the group and immediately recalled April 4, 2023, when the organization broke ground for the new building. He also reminded the gathering of the vision and courage of Dr. Holmes Morton and his wife, Caro-
line, who founded the clinic 35 years ago. “We have served the most vulnerable among us - children and adults facing rare genetic disorders,” said Bontrager, adding, “Today children with once life-limiting disorders are growing into healthy adults and new treatments are on the horizon. This building represents the clinic’s promise to care for children as they age and seek life-giving therapies.”
The Rodriguez family from New York spoke next, with Alicia, mother of Eric and wife of Walter, telling the story of how the family was overwhelmed by Eric’s diagnosis of glutaric acidemia, when he was born at 31 weeks of gestation. Walter searched the internet for answers, and when
he discovered the clinic in Lancaster County, the family drove the four hours to meet staff members. “We thought the GPS had made a mistake,” noted Alicia of the final portion of the trip when the car traveled through a farm field and a cluster of trees. “From
the moment we walked in, we felt hope,” she stated, noting that Eric, who is now 5, is in good health and “runs us ragged.” “He is our daily reminder that God is gracious and good,” she said. “The clinic manifests hope when there isn’t any.”
A ribbon cutting and open house was held at the new Clinic for Special Children in Gordonville on June 20.

The Building Industry Association (BIA) of Lancaster County has been awarded the Community Service Project of the Year Award by the statewide Pennsylvania Builders Association (PBA) for its members’ work in promoting careers in the residential building trades.
SINGING SPRING FOODS
BIA executives who accepted the award are (from left) Karen Watkins, executive officer; Pauline Wilton, director of member services; and Kevin Kozo, president.
The BIA successfully launched “Building Futures: Construction Career Day.” As part of the experience, organizers focused on giving students the chance to create something that would help the community. Those attending - along with BIA members - built
nesting boxes for wildlife at the Raven Ridge Wildlife Center in Washington Boro.
The award was presented during the PBA summer board of directors meeting at the Eden Resort & Suites in Lancaster.
