7th annual Paw Prints on the Canal a success Submitted by CANDACE LYNN Paw Prints on the Canal celebrated its 7th year on June 7, with perfect weather, superb rescues, vendors and a large crowd.

Paw Prints on the Canal is an annual event for the communities and their furry companions.

The Northampton Boro Police Dept. K-9 Unit is beneficiary of the proceeds of Paw Prints, to help support the K-9 team!

A special presentation was held for Officer John Mullner and his K-9 partner Zoro. Zoro, who unfortunately passed away earlier this year due to health issues, is a loss to the K9 Unit. Mayor Reenock stated his proclamations to Officer Mullner and Zoro, and also to Terry Stanglein, VMD for his dedicated care of Zoro. Chief Morey spoke of the commitment Officer Mullner and Zoro gave the Police Dept and the communities. Paw Print coordinators held their own presentation with their own proclamation of gratitude and commendations to Officer John Mullner and Zoro with a presentation of a framed plaque honoring Officer John Mullner and Zoro. AfFORDable Pets also presented John with a statue of an officer with his dog.

Letters From Our Readers To the Editor: It is appalling to me as a parent and a citizen of the community to see the local government trying to force out the last youth sports organization left in town.

This is happening both because of favors being granted within government and an unfounded bias towards removing this organization. It has been brought to my attention that the Bath Borough Council, and specifically Jennifer George, who is in charge of Parks and Recreation and Brad Flynn, the newly appointed borough manager, have both blatantly attacked and threatened the Bath Youth Football Association. While at the same time granting favors to other organizations. This football organization has not only built, and donated buildings on the field to the borough but

has also offered a valuable public service to the youth of the community for the past 27 years .

In a resolution passed at the beginning of 2015 by Bath Borough Council, all parks must be rented at a per-hour rate. All of these fees are being levied against the football organization, yet the entire softball season in 2015, no fees were paid or even asked for.

This is due to the close friendship of the leader of the softball organization and Jennifer George.

It is a shame in this day in age that the "good old boy" network still exists in government, even with the clear call from the public for transparency. I hope this letter reaches all of the parents and fair-minded people of the community and that they speak out and voice their opinion at the next borough meeting as to having fair and unbiased government which works for the people instead of for itself.

Respectfully submitted, David Smith.

Game Commission seeks Input on Osprey plan

Draft plan is available for public review and comments will be accepted through Aug. 29. submitted by PA STATE COMMISSION The Pennsylvania Game Commission is seeking public input on its draft osprey recovery and management plan, which can be reviewed at the agency's website, www.pgc.state.pa.us.

Public comments on the plan will be accepted through Aug. 29, and can be sent by email to toosprey@pa.gov; or by mail to Osprey Recovery and Management Plan, Pennsylvania Game Commission, 2001 Elmerton Avenue, Harrisburg, PA 171109797.

The plan can be accessed at both the Birding and Bird Conservation page and the Threatened and Endangered Species page at the Game Commission’s website. Both pages can be found under the Wildlife tab on the website’s homepage. From the pages, click on the link titled “Osprey Recovery and Management Plan,” which is found near the top of each page.

Developed by biologists within the agency’s Wildlife Diversity Division, the osprey recovery and management plan establishes management goals through 2025. The mission of this plan is to establish and maintain a stable population of breeding ospreys in Pennsylvania for current and future generations to enjoy. For recovery of its population, the plan sets a goal of at least 50 nesting pairs with at least four watershed-based population clusters of 10 pairs or more. This goal was determined by comparing the amount of shallow water in Pennsylvania with states where the osprey recovery goals have been set, and in comparison with the bald eagle which was considered recovered with 150 active nesting pairs. The osprey is a fish-

eating raptor strongly associated with the availability of shallow, still water.

Based on the plan, if the goal is met for two consecutive surveys, a recommendation would be made to remove the osprey from the state’s threatened species list, and reclassify its status as “recovered.”

The plan also sets goals for the protection of ospreys, and educating the public about ospreys.

The osprey, which never was a common species in Pennsylvania or as widespread as the bald eagle, is one of the great success stories in wildlife conservation.

Before its population collapse due to DDT exposure, the osprey was reported in summer from 15 of the state’s 67 counties and nests were confirmed only in Beaver, Bucks, Clarion, Delaware and possibly Wyoming counties.

The osprey was declared extirpated from Pennsylvania in 1982, but in 1985, when nesting ospreys returned, it was reclassified as endangered.

Then during a 17-year restoration effort, a total of 300 birds were released in Pennsylvania. In 1986 the first of these released birds nested successfully.

The population has continued to grow, and during the last survey period, 115 nests were found.

The plan calls for continued management activities to promote population growth and security for ospreys, exploring the relationship between breeding success and natural and humanmodified habitat characteristics, ensuring effective maintenance and enhancement of artificial nesting sites, and promoting education of the general public about the osprey and its habitat in Pennsylvania.

Vacation Customer service Reviews

I posted a picture of my vacation on Facebook and wrote, “what a glorious week,” and it really was. The sun was shining, the beach was amazing and although we got caught in the rain, it became a family joke as we ran through the downpour. Glorious is not how I would describe our customer service at many eateries, however.

The first day we went to Lunch at Doc’s. The waitress ran from table to table greeting guests, taking orders and the service was outstanding. So were the crab, shrimp and lobster tacos. Glorious.

The next day we went to the national chain restaurant Cracker Barrel. The server took my order for oatmeal and then came back a few minutes later with butter and syrup, because she “knew that I’d end up not getting them.” Oh no!

On our third day, we stopped by a local spot called The Breakfast Joint. After entering the place, the waitress asks me the customary number in my party, after telling her I request a seat by a window. She again angrily asks me “how many?” I tell her four, and she says “follow me” to which I said “excuse me?” Her response was another angry “I said, follow me!” Rude.

The day after that we went to The Green Man. We were the first customers to arrive and ordered a green drink and waited. And waited. And waited. We watched other guests arrive and get served before us. The Green Man opens at 8 a.m. and we didn’t even get our drinks until 8:30 a.m. How can that happen?

Day five we went to Obie’s and I ordered a turkey burger with no onions, no bun and coleslaw. I got my order with onions, a bun and fries. They handled the mix up politely and apologetically.

Iconic A-Treat Soda Launches Customer Poll to Choose Next Flavor Poll will run on Facebook from July 27 to August 2

Glorious.

On day six we went to Victoria’s. We were seated, waited 15 minutes for the waiter to come over because he was talking about himself and living in Jamaica to another table. It got so bad that the hostess was embarrassed, kept getting us more water and eventually got the supervisor. He got “the tap” from his boss and finally came to our table. Rude.

On our last day, we ate at Salt Air and found my glorious customer service while we sat at the bar and ordered scallops. The bar tender handled a pestering customer with good humor and when I remarked on her excellent people skills she bought me a drink. Definitely glorious!

You may want to pay attention to customer service when you are on a long trip. Sometimes we just start to accept bad service as the rule and not the exception it should be.

Reformation Or Transformation?

Evangelist D. L. Moody told of a Professor Drummond who was trying to help a man who wanted to become a Christian. The man had stolen about $1500 from his employer. The professor said, "Now, look here, sir, I don't believe in sudden work; don't steal more than $1000 this next year, and the next year not more than $500 and in the course of the next few years you will get so that you won't steal any. If your employer catches you, tell him you are being converted; and you will get so that you won't steal any by and by. Moody commented, "My friends, the thing is a perfect farce! 'Let him that stole, steal no more,' that is what the Bible says in Ephesians 4:28! It is right aboutface! Salvation is instantaneous! I believe a man may be a thief one moment and a saint the next! I believe a man may be as vile as hell itself one moment, and be saved the next! Christian growth is gradual, just as physical growth is; but a man passes from death unto everlasting life quick as an act of the will. 'He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life' (John 3:36)."

Conversion is a supernatural work of God! It is not human reformation, but it is divine transformation! The Bible says, "Therefore if any man be in Christ, He is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new" (2 Corinthians 5:17). If you haven't experienced this promised regeneration, why don't you seek Jesus now for it! Honestly admit and fully confess your sins to Him. Believe that He is the only Savior and that He died on the cross for your sins. Ask Him to forgive you for your past sins and make you a new person. For lots of spiritual help on this, including glorious salvation songs and outstanding congregational testimonies, listen to my message on “Experiencing Salvation” 1/10/2010 on our church website at http://www.naog.ws/sermons.htm

Same goes for the illegal bald eagle that was shot on the border of Schuylkill and Carbon County. The poacher was fined $1,000, and now the PGC is hoping that the Legislature will raise it to $2,500. The Northampton County Federation is giving a $250 reward to the person who reported the violation. The fine could have been much higher if the Feds handled the case, and sine the eagle went off the endangered species list last year the fine was less. If eagles were still endangered, he could have paid a stiffer fine, plus serve a jail term.

• Kreider reported that 18 hunter-trapper safety courses are scheduled in Northampton County. Registration is down somewhat, perhaps because the course is available online, he said.

• Dave Carl reported that water is going over the spillway at Leaser Lake in Lehigh County after months and years of work in restoring the dam and repairing leaks. 40-inch muskies have been caught recently. Norman Graver reported that Minsi Lake in Northampton County is in “deplorable” condition, and considered dangerous by the PFBC. The dam needs reconstruction also.

• At Monday’s meeting, a sixminute video was shown that depicts the value of the Pa. Federation of Sportsmen’s Clubs in aiding the sportsmen and women of the state. Northampton County assisted in the video’s production with a $4,000 donation, and PFSC president Lowell Graybill thanked this county for the gift.

Leier loading up for 2015-16 season

By: Tony Androckitis (@TonyAndrock_TCG) After a strong start to his rookie season of professional hockey saw him tally 13 goals in his first 47 AHL games, Taylor Leier battled through multiple injuries to finish the 2014-15 season. It showed on the stat sheet – no goals and just five assists in his final 26 games of the year – playing in the American Hockey League (AHL) with the Lehigh Valley Phantoms.

Towards the final five games of the season, it got to the point where then-head coach Terry Murray would ask Leier in the morning if he was sure he was

good to go for that night’s game.

“I had three injuries throughout the last 30 games of the season,” Leier told The Home News earlier this month at the Philadelphia Flyers annual development camp.

“It’s something that all hockey players and athletes have to go through. I gutted it out and I’m pretty proud of myself for that,” Leier said, noting three separate upper body ailments he played through. “It sucked. It honestly sucked to play through. I’m just happy nothing bad came out of it and I could play for the guys.”

While the end of the season saw Leier banged up, he came

into this summer’s development camp both healthy and bigger than he was in the spring.

“I’ve put six pounds of muscle on so far this summer over two months,” Leier said, adding, “I’ve been working really hard.”

Leier is hoping that a fresh start in the 2015-16 season could pave the way for him to make a good first impression with the NHL coaching staff.

“I’m excited for main [NHL training] camp,” Leier said. “The Flyers have a new coach this year, so if he has any input that would be awesome to hear from him.”

The former Western Hockey League standout with the Portland Winterhawks (WHL) had plenty of ups and downs in his rookie season with the Phantoms last year, but comes into this season knowing what to expect in his second season at the pro level.

“It’s nice to have those 73 games under my belt now,” Leier said, noting his AHL experience from last season. “It feels good to have the first year out of the way.

It was a big step,” he continued.

“The guys were stronger and they can think the game better.

They were just experienced, you could tell all the little things like that. The details of the game were more significant in pro hockey compared to junior. There were no mistakes made really, so you had to create your own chances and work with your line mates to make something happen.”

While the NHL roster seems set up front with 13 forwards on one-way NHL contracts, the summer camps give younger guys like Leier a chance to make a good first impression for the upcoming season. A good showing in training camp could go a long way in determining who the NHL club might call up during the season when injuries arise.

“Fourth year here for me and Scott [Laughton] and Shayne [Gostisbehere] and guys like that,” Leier said of this year’s development camp. “It’s good to see the younger guys come in and you can help them out and stuff, but I’m really looking forward to [training] camp.”

By Pennsylvania Hospice Network With ‘Spirit Of Hospice’ Award

Denise Tornabene, CNA, was recently recognized by the Pennsylvania Hospice Network for her “Spirit of Hospice.”

– Contributed photo

submitted by DENISE RADER For the third consecutive year, a St. Luke’s Hospice employee or volunteer has been an award winner at the Pennsylvania Hospice Network’s conference in Harrisburg.

This year, St. Luke’s Hospice Aide, Denise Tornabene, CNA, was recognized in the category of “Spirit of Hospice.” This award recognizes a “hospice/home health aide who has demonstrated outstanding performance, sensitivity, respect and continuous excellence of service in hospice,” according to the Pennsylvania Hospice Network.

“St. Luke’s Hospice is proud of the empathetic, kind and clinically-excellent care that Denise provides,” said Linda Moller, RN, MSN, Director, St. Luke’s Hospice. “Hospice care demands a special combination of strength and kindness with the knowledge and skill to best meet the needs of each patient.”

St. Luke’s Hospice Patient Care Manager Judith Lichtenwalner,

RN, BSN, said Denise embodies what an excellent hospice aide should aspire to be. “Denise is a very important part of our hospice interdisciplinary team. Her willingness to go the extra mile for her patients, families and coworkers is demonstrated through her compassionate, thorough and skillful care,” she said. “Her insight into the patients’ clinical and emotional condition, as well as the family dynamic, is valued by the case management team.”

This is not the first award that Denise has received in recognition of her excellence in care.

She has been the recipient of the St. Luke’s Excellence in Nursing Award – Teamwork and was awarded with St. Luke’s highest PCRAFT award – an honor that embodies the five Network values of pride, caring, respect, accountability, flexibility and teamwork. She has been recognized by numerous co-workers and patients’ families, said Lichtenwalner.
