Let’s go to the movies: The Roxy Theatre Reopens July 2
By KERI LINDENMUTH The Roxy Theatre in Northampton has long been a local landmark, its brilliant marquee lighting up Main Street for decades, the bright lights welcoming Lehigh Valley families into a place where they can escape reality if only for a few hours. But there was no escaping the reality that March 2020 brought when the COVID-19 pandemic shut down the entire nation...including the beloved theatre. For the first time in Richard Wolfe’s 51 years of owning the theatre, the Roxy had to close its doors. While the theatre may have closed for renovations a handful of times, Wolfe says this
through.” Almost immediately after the shutdown, Wolfe got creative, offering unique ways to raise a little bit of funding...and keep the famous marquee alight. Anyone driving past the theatre since the shutdown may have noticed the bright marquee, not announcing the next film, but an anniversary, birthday, or other special occasions. Wolfe said he heard about marquee rentals from others in the industry, but was a little wary at first. “I thought about it and was not sure, but I gave it a try,” he says. “To my amazement, every single day since May 30 [2020], the marquee has been rented.” The marquee remains rented until June 30. Then, it will once again go back to advertising the Roxy’s next film. Wolfe says that marquee has always been the most effective form of advertising for the theatre, so it will be important to start advertising movies again. When Pennsylvania entered the “green” phase, Wolfe had another idea: to open the theatre to small groups to celebrate a birthday or simply get together and watch one of their favorite films. Like the marquee rentals, these private theatre rentals took off. The theatre was being rented six days a week, sometimes with as many as 11 showings for different groups. The rentals were so popular, Wolfe says he is considering keeping afternoons open for private showings. Then there were poster sales. The Roxy has shown thousands of popular films over the years and the storage space in the theatre was filling up fast with posters for classics like "Snow White" and "The Shining." Wolfe began
is the longest it had been closed for business. However, after 15 long months that have left local movie lovers without a place to connect, social distancing mandates have been lifted and the Roxy can finally re-open its doors. The theatre will welcome back guests on Friday, July 2 with a showing of the new Disney film garnering rave reviews, "Cruella." For Wolfe, there was never a question as to whether or not the theatre would reopen after the pandemic. “I was pretty sure that we would reopen,” he says. “It was never my intention not to reopen...I was pretty sure we would make it Continued on page 9
Looking by Back Ed Pany Kohl-a-daal series Part 3
In this third column, we continue the story of Heinrich Kohl, a colonial farmer and veteran of the Revolutionary War. The family farm was located on Indian Trail Road, one mile northwest of Kreidersville. After the war, he returned home to his family to continue to farm with his wife and seven children. Their neighbors called the area where they farmed Kohl-adaal. If you drive up there today, you will find Kohl Road named in honor of Mr. Kohl. Heinrich died March 2, 1827, and Christina died Sept. 24, 1832. Both are buried in the Zion Stone Church cemetery outside of Kreidersville. In later years, the Kohl family name slowly changed to Cole. Many Coles were members of the historic house of worship. The church started in the small village of Howersville, relocating to its present site in 1771. The Kirche membership served German and Lutheran denominations. Most worshippers were local farmers and their families. The cemetery is the final resting place for many Revolutionary War veterans. Each Memorial Day, a program is held at the church and cemetery to honor all veterans. Kohl’s children followed their father and became farmers. Their
fifth child, Adam Sr., was a farmer. His son, Adam Jr., would purchase a farm in Allen Township in 1900 that remains in the family today. The farm is on Stagecoach Road just north of Kreidersville. A very interesting road, a regular schedule of stage coaches passed and stopped at the farm on their daily run. The coach with four sturdy horses started the trip in Easton, following King’s Highway, a rough dirt, gravel road with many ruts. The coach would stop at the farm. Adam’s son Alfred, as a youngster, recalled how the coach would stop so the horses could get a drink of water at the farm. The company paid $1 a month for the water. The riders would get out and relax, say a few words to the family and continue their journey. The Cole children looked forward to the coach’s arrival. For our readers, Stagecoach Road met Cherryville Road near the seminary. An old tree line still Continued on page 6

Gab Over by Pete The Fence G. Ossip
I gotta make this quick today, gotta get out and water the flowers before it gets too hot as I’m writing this in the midst of our little heat wave. I’m already over this heat. It’s just too dang hot. I’ll take it over 20-some inches of snow outside so I guess I should just be grateful...There’s lots going on for the Independence Day weekend. As always, make sure to keep pets safe and secure, you know they like to bolt when they hear fireworks. More pets are lost around this time of year than any other. Something else to keep in mind, when it’s so hot out, the asphalt is so much hotter than the air temperature so be careful to avoid it when walking pets if you must walk them in this heat. You’re supposed to place the back of your hand on the asphalt/ pavement, and if you can’t leave it there for at least 5 seconds due to the heat, then it’s too hot for pup paws. Lastly, this is not new...absolutely do not leave pets in hot cars, even if you leave the windows cracked or open wideit’s still too hot for them. Cracking the windows does absolutely nothing. Just leave ‘em home in the AC...There is some road work coming up in the Bath Borough, more info on that in this week’s issue. Something else to be aware

the township, alleging that the municipality acted in “bad faith” by rejecting their request to rezone 155 acres west of Weaversville Road from agricultural to industrial. Rock Lehigh Valley has argued since filing the petition in the summer of 2019 that East Allen Township’s zoning unfairly excludes modern logistics centers, which solicitors for Rock argue are different entities than warehouses. Representing Rock Lehigh Valley, Joseph Fitzpatrick said in his closing statement that a modern logistics center and a traditional warehouse are two completely different entities in the supply chain, citing testimony given by Lehigh professor Dr. Zach Zachariah in early 2020. He added that the COVID-19 pandemic has only added to the necessity for a local logistics center as more and more families rely on e-commerce. With East Allen Township located only one day’s drive from one-third of the U.S. population and half of the Canadian population, Fitzpatrick argued that rezoning 155 undeveloped acres for logistics is a “real, distinct, and necessary use.” Zoning, he said in closing, should be used for planning for the future. Not denying it. However, this was an argument that many East Allen Township residents were not persuaded by. “You can make up whatever name you want,” said Robert Byshler during public comment. “Is it a big building...Does it have a lot of trucks? Yes.” “Different name, same game,” added Lou Corominas. The effects of a logistics center, including increased pollution and traffic, are no different than those caused by a warehouse, he con-
tinued. “A horse, is a horse, is a horse,” Bob Lalo said simply to close his public comment. The concept that a logistics center is different from a warehouse is something Kimberly Freimuth, special counsel for the township, vehemently denies.
-----------------------
“A logistic center is nothing more than a type of warehouse.” East Allen Township Special Counsel Kimberly Freimuth
-----------------------
“A logistic center is nothing more than a type of warehouse,” she said in her closing arguments. She added that the township’s zoning ordinance provides “sufficient” land for warehouses in other parts of the township, even if those plots of land may not be large enough for a one-millionsquare-foot warehouse, something Rock Lehigh Valley has argued. She also took issue with Rock Lehigh Valley saying that there was not enough space for warehouses in the township. She reminded those present there are already six existing warehouses in the township, which Rock did not take into account while testifying. “The applicant is creating growth [in Allen Township] and forcing it into a neighboring township,” she concluded. Having heard hours of testimony from witnesses, counsel arguments, and public comment over 18 months, township solicitor Joseph Piperato recommended that both Fitzpatrick and Freimuth prepare findings of fact and conclusions of law. These packets will summarize the main arguments of the hearing in a more digestible format for supervisors. After a review, supervisors will make their decision. While no voting date is scheduled as of now, a date will be announced on the township website: www.eatwp.org.

Ella, Alfred Cole’s daughter, would marry Tilghman Vogel of Danielsville in Elkton, Md., in 1919, right after World War I. Tilghman served in the U.S.
Navy in World War I on a minesweeper and submarine. He would purchase the farm from his father-in-law and work on the farm and also at the Phoenix Forge in Catasauqua. Phoenix continues to operate today. Its present owner was Bryden Horse Shoe Works. The Front Street company was one of the largest horseshoe plants in the world, producing between 40 and 50 tons daily. They supplied horseshoes to the British cavalry during the Boer War in South

Moore Township residents voice concerns Upcoming roadwork in the Bath Borough About warehouse sketch plan
By CHRISTINA SANTO A large gathering of residents were present at the June 28 Moore Township Planning Commission meeting to express their feelings about a newly proposed warehouse sketch plan. Township solicitor David Backenstoe informed the planning commission and residents in attendance that because this is only a sketch plan, it is an informal plan and no ruling would be made at the meeting. The proposed warehouses would be located near the intersection of Route 512 and Jones Road, where

auctioning off the posters on Facebook, letting movie buffs take a piece of memorabilia home with them. Seeing how popular all of these activities were gave Wolfe peace
of mind that the Roxy would be alright. But it was a testament to how beloved the landmark is in the community when residents started approaching Wolfe during the pandemic with offers of donations or financial assistance, all of which he politely declined.
“I appreciated the thought,” he says. “But I thought that there are probably other places that need it more than we do.” He adds that he would have felt bad taking that money away. He added that the theatre applied for a SVOG grant for music halls and independent theatres
and while he said it would be nice to get a little funding, he knows of many other local theatres that could use the money more. “A lot of performing arts centers have been closed without income at all,” he says, citing the
State Theatre in Easton as an example. “I certainly hope they get it.” As for what Wolfe hopes to see on July 2, he says only time will tell. Continued on page 11

He says he has been closely watching other theatres and the turnout has “not been great.” Paired with direct-to-streaming films by streamers like Disney+ and HBO Max, there is still plenty of room for concern.

Natural perspectives For the health-minded individual
My Back Went Out
The title says it all. I find myself afflicted by the same ailments common to man and, by golly, I am not happy about it in the least. While it may sound comical that your chiropractor’s back went out, I can assure you, laughter has been far from me. The catalyst of it all started when I relocated archived radiology films. So if your last name is from G through N and you had been a patient during 2004-2009, you may have been part of my recent dilemma. As I write this week’s “Natural Perspectives,” my spinal mobility has significantly improved and my pain levels have greatly reduced, although I am not as stable as I would like to be. Anyone else know where I am coming from? I think so. With that said I wanted to reveal some of the

treatments I utilized to get back on my feet and thriving again. You might be surprised that the initial seer of pain that brought me to my knees was quite unexpected. Everything was going great until it wasn’t. From experience treating so many, this is a common statement I routinely hear yet rarely utter myself. As I lay there on the floor with my dog licking my face, I began to formulate the plan to make myself whole,
yet first I had to make my own assessment as to the extent of my injury. Suffice it to say that my assessment was, “this isn’t good.” As such, I painstakingly labored and crawled over to my physio ball wherein I made like a slinky and rocked back and forth for several minutes. From the ball, I was assisted to an area where I was able to elevate my legs while my nurse, my wife, retrieved my home electrical stimulation unit and applied accordingly. After this I applied my Biofreeze topical analgesic and gave orders from my throne of leisure for most of that evening. Needless to say, during the Continued on page 15

The Advisory Council is seeking Northampton County residents who will have celebrated their 100th or 100-plus birthday by the end of 2021. Centenarians will be recognized and honored with proclamations from the State of Pennsylvania and Northampton County, congratulating them on the significant achievement of reaching their 100 birthday and beyond. Proclamations will be personally delivered to the centenarian’s residence by a member of the Advisory Council during the week of September 19. Appointments will be arranged in August. In previous years centenarians were recognized at a luncheon but, due to continuing concerns with the pandemic, that is not currently possible. Anyone who would like to nominate a centenarian for recognition should contact Melissa Titus at 610-829-4509. Registrations must be received no later than July 9.
House approves Mako Bill to improve Communication Regarding EPA Violations to Municipalities, Citizens
Submitted by TRACY POLOVICK
The House recently passed legislation authored by Rep. Zach Mako (R-Lehigh/Northampton) to require timely notification of environmental violations at quarries and landfills.
The bill is the result of a several months-long lag in 2018 in notifying Whitehall Township and its residents that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued a notice of noncompliance to a local landfill for high levels of PCBs in material accepted at the facility. “While there have been no recent environmental violations at the quarry that I am aware of, this legislation is needed so residents can be assured that they are alerted to anything that could possibly negatively affect their health or safety.” Mako said. “Quarry and landfill operators should be good neighbors. I’m hopeful the Senate will vote on this bill quickly so that delayed notification doesn’t occur in the future.” House Bill 1302 would require the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection to forward to municipalities notices of non-compliance it receives that were issued by the EPA for violations of the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) and Solid Waste Management Act (SWMA). The bill now goes to the Senate for its consideration.

Disorderly Conduct at Wal-Mart On June 13, the CRPD responded to the Wal-Mart in Lower Nazareth Township for multiple callers reporting a fight involving multiple people. Upon arrival, all parties involved were separated and identified. It was discovered that the incident involved only two males who were involved in a verbal altercation. The males were identified as
18-year-old Guion Thompson and 37-year-old Carlos Reyes Aguilar. Surveillance video from Wal-Mart showed the two men chasing one another from inside the store and throughout the parking lot. Thompson appeared to taunt Reyes Aguilar to fight and ran away when Rayes Aguilar approached him, so Reyes Aguilar chased him. This occurred multiple times. Both males will be cited for Disorderly Conduct through Judge Capobianco’s office.
My back

course of care I received over the last few weeks or so, I once again became acutely and painfully aware just how important health and wholeness is. Nothing like a good bout of dysfunction and disruption of normal activities of daily living to remind oneself just how precious our bodies are. To date, my care has consisted of many gentle modalities as I already described, yet I have implemented more that I would like to share. I utilized a hot tub, cold packs, sauna, near infrared therapy, massage, mini trampoline, pelvic tilts, planks, stretching and modest strengthening exercises. In addition, I took my supplements, ate a more strict anti-inflammatory diet, and rested a bit more. Not to be left out is my home acupressure mat and my “fit for life” motion enhancing home
unit and my beloved rocking chair. I stood up on my vibration machine and used my traction devices. I even implemented relaxing meditation and healing visualization. No, I did not veer into crystals and the like, yet I did increase my water and fresh lemon consumption which has been a challenge getting up due to a frequently filled bladder. Of course, I have been receiving chiropractic care to my pelvis and lumbar region to restore proper motion and reduce pressure on the nerve. If you are beginning to think I may have overdone it a bit, you and my family might be in agreement. I so chose my path as I wanted to utilize this event to assess which one, independently or in tandem, assisted with my healing or perhaps made it worse.
For the sake of space I will tell you that once I was able to have my chiropractor adjust me, I felt all the rest magically started to “work better.” For many years my personal chiropractic maintenance adjustment program has been every two weeks and I am grateful I have not wavered. Who knows how much worse this episode would have been without this routine care. Now that may sound self-serving, yet that’s the takeaway. I have enjoyed and loved this healing art of chiropractic since I was ten and now that I am headlong into my fifties I am more grateful for the adjustment more than ever. Now I don’t plan on my back going out again-nobody really does, yet it sure feels good knowing the innate healing abilities of each of our own bodies can be assisted without drugs, surgery
