Nazareth Borough Council discusses Computer upgrades, Speeding concerns By CHRISTINA SANTO The Nazareth Borough Council met on Monday, July 5 to discuss computer and hardware upgrades, as well as speeding concerns. During their June meeting, council approved the spending of $5,000 to upgrade two current workstations, add a third workstation, and upgrade the computer monitor that runs the police department cameras. Two DELL computer monitors and fully upgraded hardware would be included in each workstation update. Technology committee chairperson Kayla Green proposed an additional $2,055.04,
bringing the total upgrade cost to $7,055.04. Also discussed were the four security cameras in the park that are currently not working; Green expressed that the PC running the monitors and recording equipment cannot handle both programs at once, and will hopefully be fixed by adding one of the old computers into the server room to take on one of the programs. One borough resident expressed his concerns about speeding near Mauch Chunk and Kohl Streets, describing it as Continued on page 8
Photos by Gregory Morgan Photography By KERI LINDENMUTH After a hiatus in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the annual Nazareth Kazoo Parade, hosted by the Nazareth Area Chamber of Commerce, made its return, bringing patriotic sights and sounds to the borough. The Fourth of July tradition kicked off at Nazareth Area High School where a parade of several dozen residents decked in their red, white, and blue attire marched through the center of town, escorted by fire trucks and police. Every year, the Chamber honors a Nazareth veteran by selecting him or her as the parade’s grand marshal. However, in 2021, the Chamber decided to honor all local veterans. A group of veterans marched in the front of the parade together. The site of a crowd of people performing their patriotic tunes on kazoos always brings a smile and a laugh to the faces of those passing by. “The kazoo parade origins have always been a bit sketchy,” laughed Mayor Lance Colondo. He said it is believed the parade started 15 or 16 years ago when a group of residents got together and tried to break the world record for the most kazoos being played at once. Nazareth didn’t break the world record, but the borough did start
a new, family-friendly tradition. “Over the years, [it] has become a fun and quirky event that lets us remember and celebrate that we are fortunate enough to live in the greatest country in the world,” Mayor Colondo continued. The parade ended at Veterans Memorial Square where a brief ceremony was held. Rebecca Peiper, founder of the Musik Makers Studio, performed the National Anthem and several veterans in attendance were recognized during a salute to the troops. Northampton County Executive Lamont McClure was also present to welcome back the
event following a difficult year for the county. “We have Northampton County on the right track,” he said. “America’s best days are ahead of us.” “It is great to see Nazareth Borough growing and thriving,” added Bill Skinner, past chairman of the Chamber. “It is great to see us moving beyond this pandemic.”

Letter to The Editor
To the Editor: Elementary (K–5) student enrollment in Northampton Area School District has declined steadily by 13% over the past ten years, even with the addition of pre-K programs. Before the pandemic, elementary enrollment was predicted to continue to decline for the next 8 – 10 years, by consultant Future Think and the Pennsylvania Department of Education (PDE). Even after closing Franklin Elementary School, existing elementary schools in NASD will have an excess capacity of 194 students for present enrollment. That excess capacity will continue to grow as enrollment continues to decline. Future elementary enrollment in NASD after the pandemic is uncertain. A recent Associated Press article indicated that nationally, 4 in 10 students enrolled in home learning did not return to schools when full-time instruction resumed. For the 2020–21 school

year, 25% of NASD elementary students were enrolled in “eLearning,” learning entirely from home. Over the past year, 25,000 students have left traditional public schools in Pennsylvania, including NASD, for charter and cybercharter schools. Homeschooling has experienced a dramatic increase as well, with many homeschool co-op programs experiencing 100% to 300% increases. Will eLearning students return to NASD facilities in the future? Even if all eLearners return to inperson education, NASD will still have excess capacity in its existing elementary schools. The District is proposing a $70 million (in 2021 dollars) building program to include a new 650-student elementary school, new Administration building, new IT facility, new maintenance building, new bus parking facility, and new athletic fields. The District has allocated over a halfmillion dollars to hire consultants to design, plan, attempt to gain permits for the project, and “learn if the project is feasible.” The new NASD complex would be located adjacent to the planned 288-acre Northampton Business Center, being developed by Jaindl Watson Development corporation. The new elementary school would open for the 2025–26 school year. Unrealistic maintenance costs have been presented in an attempt to justify closing and demolishing Moore Elementary School, the only NASD presence in the northeast quadrant of the district. Moore Elementary School does not need $25.5 million in repairs. Borrowing $70 million for the new building program would result in a $2.6 million dollar increase in debt service in the District’s budget each year according to District figures, which would require a corresponding increase in taxes, reduction of educational and athletic programs, or both. In addition, borrowing $70 million would consume the majority of the District’s remaining $96.5 million legally-allowed borrowing capacity, severely limiting the District’s ability to maintain existing facilities in the future. Rather than embarking on a $70 million dollar new building program, a more responsible course of action would be to perform realistic maintenance of existing facilities to keep them fully functional, at a fraction of the cost of building new, redraw existing elementary school boundaries to distribute students more equitably among existing facilities, and monitor enrollment trends for future needs, if any.

Stories From My Heart
by Cynthia DeLuca Meet the Author Thursday
I am in love with books! According to my husband, I am a hoarder of them too. My love of the written word began when I was a little girl living on a farm. While school was in session, I always brought home books from the library, but the reading material became somewhat scarce when summer rolled around. However, my dad, who loved to go to weekly auctions, started buying box lots filled with various treasures. Each box might cost one dollar or a little more, depending on the number of folks bidding on them. Dad often got lucky and paid the lower amount for a box filled with items hiding under a closed lid. Sometimes we could use the treasures, and sometimes we gave them away. However, one day Dad hit pay dirt, so to speak. Actually, I should say, I hit pay dirt since the box held several books nestled within used salt and pepper shakers, stained tea towels, dishcloths, and assorted mixed matched silverware. I will never forget hearing Dad's voice calling me down to the kitchen, where a few books were waiting for me. One of those books was a Nancy Drew book. The cherry on top was, it was one I had not read. The other two books were a new genre for me, but nonetheless, great books. As the summer wore on, Dad continued to bid on box lots, and on occasion, large boxes were filled with a variety of reading materials. I was in seventh heaven. Although I did not leave my yard much that summer, those books
Over 40 Yrs. Experience
allowed me to travel around the world, solve mysteries, and become part of the adventure. About ten years ago, I started reading books written by Richard Paul Evans. Richard beautifully writes inspirational stories, filled to the brim with ordinary characters searching for something missing from their lives. The lessons they learn along the way resonate with everyday life. His rainbow of words woven throughout his entire story keeps you wanting to read more. His faith, compassion, hope, and love shine through the often-complex issues his characters face. I have read every book that Richard has written. Another writer I particularly like is Mitch Albom. He, like Richard, writes books filled with inspiration. You might remember the movie, "The Five People You Meet in Heaven." Although it is a work of fiction, it cements my belief that those we meet on our path are there for a reason. I loved the book and the movie. Mitch also wrote "Have a Little Faith," a true story about a Rabbi and a black minister who lived a life of crime and drugs in his younger years, and how the Rabbi unknowingly made a profound difference in the life of Henry. It is a beautiful story filled with twists and turns, leading to lessons learned and a happy ending. Each book I've read by these two authors has changed me immensely. Their words continue to feed my soul. Each book has strengthened my faith and helped me realize the type of stories I wanted to write. Putting my love of Christ out there, living my faith, and my love of helping others throughout my stories was a little scary initially, but now it feels like second nature. I have to be what I believe, and I hope my stories show it. Most of all, I really hope my words, characters, and woven love throughout the story will change your heart and make a difference.

In other business, council approved a motion to allow the Nazareth Soccer Club to use Essroc Fields from July 1 to November 15 for games, clinics, and practices. They will be using the field from 4 p.m. until dusk on weekdays and 8 a.m. until dusk on weekends. The borough recently received $298,411.92 from the American Rescue Plan, and will receive another payment in the same amount before June 30, 2022, according to councilwoman Jessica Teel. Finally, the borough secretary will advertise an ordinance amendment to Chapter 15: Motor Vehicles, Section 408: Angled Parking Required on Certain Streets. The ordinance currently reads “on all streets where angle parking is required, every vehicle parked at the angle shall be parked with its front nearest the curb.” Angle parking is required in Center Square and on the north side of East Prospect Street between South Spruce and South Broad Streets; the latter is only required on Sundays from 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. The proposed change to the ordinance is that cars would be required to back into the angled parking spots, because pulling in has people driving against the grain of traffic. Two parking spaces in the southeast corner of Center Square will be exempt from the ordinance change. Nazareth Borough council will hold their next meeting on Monday, August 2 at 6 p.m. in the council chambers.

NHS class trip to Washington, D.C.June 8, 1956
By KATHLEEN UNGER It was June 8, 1956. We were excited to be going on a bus trip to D.C. for our senior class trip. It was 3 a.m. and we were all standing in the parking lot of our high school waiting for the bus to take us to the big city. It was a 6-hour drive in a very hot bus. I wanted to sit with Roger but his girlfriend got there first and sat with him on both trips, so I ended up sitting with a girlfriend. It was a very, very hot and humid day and our bus had no air conditioning. The cafeteria ladies had packed us a simple lunch- a sandwich with a pickle on top which leaked juice into the bread for a soggy mess. There was a pint of milk but no refrigeration so the milk was warm and smelled bad. We also had a bag of chips and two cookies. Overall, not very appetizing! During the day we visited the Smithsonian, the Washington Monument and the art museum. We never got to see the Lincoln Memorial because we lingered too long at the Smithsonian. We were to be back at the bus by 5 p.m. for the ride home. While waiting for the bus, we sat on the grass under a few trees to try to cool off. Of course there were a few late comers so we had to wait for the last three students to return to the place of departure. We took off for the 6-hour ride back to Nazareth and arrived at 2 a.m. Our mothers and fathers were waiting to take us back home. Luckily we did not have school the next day so we could sleep in. I bought a pin with a picture of the Washington Monument on it, which I still have in my high school memorabilia collection.

History comes alive at the George Taylor House
By KERI LINDENMUTH The sounds of drums and fifes echoed across the lawn as the British flag flew above an armed Redcoat. Robert Levers of Easton reads the Declaration of Independence to a crowd surrounding him from all sides. A group of Loyalists, upset at the declaration’s fiery language, scream “Treason!” and “God save the King!” before hurling pieces of bread at the speaker. Patriots round them up and let Levers continue. The British flag comes down and is thrown to the ground, replaced, to cheers, by a flag for the 13 colonies. This scene played out before a crowd of onlookers in 2021, not 1776. But it was probably not far from the experience the very real Levers had as he read the Decla-
ration in Easton on July 8, 1776. This scene came alive at the George Taylor House in Catasauqua to a crowd of residents celebrating the Fourth of July. Taylor, an ironmaster at Durham Furnace, was one of 56 signers of the Declaration of Independence. Every year on July 4, a group of dedicated volunteers celebrates Taylor and the other colonial-era patriots who fought for independence from Great Britain. This year, the Bachmann Players, a group of historians and actors, recited several historical pieces, including an excerpt of Thomas Paine’s Common Sense, King George’s Proclamation Against Treason & Sedition, and, of course, the Declaration of Independence, recited by reenactor
Christopher Black. The detailed performance gave the crowd a very real look at all of the voices and opinions striving to be heard almost 250 years ago. Following the performance, visitors could take a tour of the elegant home. Built in the late 1600s, Taylor bought the home in 1768, expanding it to the mansion it is today. The house contains an outdoor summer kitchen, a winter kitchen (currently undergoing an archeological dig and renovation), a living room, dining room, office, ladies room, four bedrooms, and even an indoor bathroom...a rarity in the 18th century. Melissa Taylor, events coordinator for the George Taylor House Association, says that Taylor used many of these rooms to display his wealth and power for guests. The dining room and living room feature detailed crown moldings, tall ceilings, and large fireplaces. The guest bedroom on the home’s second floor is larger than even Taylor’s and includes ample closet space that a homeowner today would even be jealous of. Taking a tour of the home is like taking a step back in time. The volunteers painstakingly recreate what the home would have looked like during Taylor’s time. Every piece of furniture in the home is from the 18th and 19th centuries. Taylor says donations play a large role in helping the association acquire this furniture. The floors are the original hardwood floors that Taylor would have paced on 200 years ago, while the windows are the very same windows he would have looked out of to catch a glimpse of the Lehigh River across his lawn. Several renovations are underway, including a front porch and the hearth in the summer kitchen. The hearth is operational, so Melissa Taylor says she hopes the kitchen can one day open up for historical cooking demonstrations and perhaps even private dinners. It is events like the July 4 cel-
ebration that raise awareness of the house and the man who once called it home. Future events include goat yoga in August, Harvest and Haunts on October 30, and Colonial Christmas on January 8. Tours are also given from April through October on the
first Saturday of the month, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., and the third Sunday of the month from noon to 4 p.m.. The association is also looking for volunteers to help keep the home and its history alive. To learn more, visit georgetaylorhouseassociation. org.
