The Greater WilkesBarre area has a great story to tell. This book gives you a snapshot of our community and the growing businesses that call it home. The Wyoming Valley’s manufacturing, defense and healthcare sector coupled with a solid foundation of higher education institutions and a growing visitor base provide a great value proposition. With year-round recreation and entertainment, residents and visitors enjoy skiing, kayaking, hiking, mountain biking, golfing, casino gaming, arena sports and venues; complimented by parks, trails, forests, streams, and lakes. In addition, proximity to the interstates has also helped make Northeastern Pennsylvania a destination center for industry. Our region is located 120 miles from New York on the East and Philadelphia to our South and within a fourhour drive from Boston to the North and Washington to the South. The region is poised for business development, economic improvement to visitor access, and people and goods movement. While challenges remain, those challenges also offer opportunity and coupled with its existing assets, our business dynamic has the capacity to revitalize, grow and sustain. This NEPA Outlook is dedicated to the businesses large, medium and small - and to the diversity of our region’s industrial base and workforce. The Chamber member profiles provide insight into the types of businesses that make Luzerne County special. The Chamber serves as an advocate for all the businesses represented in these pages. I am so proud to be the steward and representative of the Chamber and the businesses and industry that service our Wyoming Valley community.

The F.M. Kirby Center for the Performing Arts Delivers Innovative Programming and Economic Impact

By Meghan Flanagan

“In the past year, the F.M. Kirby Center has played host to more than 125 events, including sold-out performances by ZZ Top, Jerry Seinfeld, Daniel Tosh, Loretta Lynn, and Ringo Starr - just to name a few. We love bringing big names to our intimate venue,” says Will Beekman, Executive Director of the F.M. Kirby Center for the Performing Arts. In addition to the national tours that have seen the F.M. Kirby Center stage, the “Live from the Chandelier Lobby” concert series brings artists to a smaller, more personal performance space in the main lobby. This series has been growing in popularity and diversity, and has included shows with Saint Motel, Cabinet, Josh Ritter, The Struts, and many more. “I really believe this area has something to offer for everyone, and I would like to think the F.M. Kirby Center is one of those options. Our mainstream programming has grown in recent years to the point where people no longer have to drive to New York or Philadelphia to see some of the big name acts, because the F.M. Kirby Center is now bringing those acts to Wilkes-Barre,” says Beekman. The F.M. Kirby Center’s shows draw huge crowds to the downtown, significantly contributing to the economic impact of the region. Beekman is excited about the activity that their shows are generating, commenting, “We love seeing a packed house for any of our F.M. Kirby Center events, but we are equally as excited to walk outside before and after the performance to see that the stores and restaurants are packed, as well. There’s an extra buzz on the streets, and a bustle on

the sidewalks. You don’t need to read the marquee to know that there’s something going on at the F.M. Kirby Center. You can just feel it. We’re proud of that.”

education into this community. This year, we are increasing that mission by adding a new series of programming in our lobby called “Lobby for the Arts!”

Located directly on Public Square in downtown Wilkes-Barre, the F. M. Kirby Center was originally known as the Comerford movie theatre - an ornate, grand, single-screen theatre. It has since evolved into a premier space for comedy, music, drama, political and religious gatherings, graduations, and youth events. Between its inception in 1938 and its current standing, the F. M. Kirby Center has preserved much of its original “art deco” design through detailed remodels.

The F.M. Kirby Center supports these programs, as well as its overall operation, by the aid of donors, the recruitment of members, grants, and by booking popular performance acts.

“We’re very lucky to come to work every day in this beautiful, historic, art-deco theater. It’s such a grand space that lends itself to many different events besides concerts, comedians and Broadway. We originally opened as a movie house back in 1938, and nearly 80 years later, we still pay tribute by screening classic and independent films. We also rent our space for weddings and corporate events. The theater’s size and beauty makes it accessible and desirable for a variety of events,” says Beekman. Additionally, the F.M. Kirby Center invests more than $300,000, annually, in events that support its mission. Will Beekman explains, “As we continue to increase the quality and quantity of our mainstream programming, we can now underwrite an increase in our mission programming. The big names are exciting, but we remain true to our mission to bring the arts and arts

“As a non-profit performing arts center, we are built on partnerships. We are not only here for the community, but we are also here because of the community. Our donors, corporate partners, local businesses and ticket buyers are the reason we’re still here today. That makes it a special place to work,” says Beekman. 

The Riverfront Parks Committee Wants YOU!

By Melissa Hughes

Through community engagement, scheduled events, educational seminars, and good old fashioned elbow grease, Executive Director John Maday and the Riverfront Parks Committee team have rolled up their sleeves to find fun and innovative ways to keep people of all age groups personally involved in the preservation of the natural beauty found along the riverfront and within our Wilkes-Barre parks. “The mission of the Riverfront Parks Committee is environmental education, awareness, stewardship, advocacy, and recreation. We are an educational organization and our classrooms are in the City of Wilkes-Barre, on the banks of the Susquehanna River in the Kirby Park Natural Area, Nesbitt Park, and River Common Park,” says Maday. “To teach, we have to encourage students to come to our classrooms by scheduling events such as Winter along the River, Earth Day

in the Park, River Fest , Dragon Boat Racing, Chalk Fest and other activities.” The Riverfront Parks Committee has developed 12 months of free educational programs. During the colder months of the year, the committee organizes Winter along the River. Made possible by a partnership with Nescopeck State Park, the event includes activities like dog sledding, snow shoeing, cross country skiing, maple syrup tapping, snow sculpting, children’s educational

activities, and even medical service education. Spring brings Earth Day and the United Way Day of Caring. The Riverfront Parks Committee’s Earth Day activities have become a staple field trip for most area elementary schools, providing educational seminars for a constantly growing number of students. Area sponsors set up an average of 30 educational and craft stations for over 1,500 children to visit,

endeavor, comprised of three card tables providing informational pamphlets and an acoustic guitar player. Over the last twenty years, it has grown into a 2-day festival filled with music, kayaking, canoeing, vendors, educational booths, and many local food trucks and stands. For the first time, the 2016 River Fest incorporated an extremely successful Food Truck Rally, as well as a food drive to benefit the local food bank. River Fest has something for people of all ages. The Suskie Bassmasters hold a fly casting contest for children. There is also a bounce house, tree climb, pony rides, and

face painting, as well as many other creative and educational children’s activities. Local artist Jan Lokuta invites all of the children present at the event to participate in coloring a giant community mural, which is then displayed on the event grounds. Since 2010, the Dragon Boat Races have been integral part of River Fest , but, in 2016, they have grown and become their own separate event, held just in time to conclude the summer. Brought in from Quebec, the colorful boats are used as a fun educational tool to promote river awareness. To ensure the safety of participants, mandatory training is held before the event. Teams must work together during the sprints to compete for first, second, and third place, as well as specialty awards for the best dressed

drummer and most spirited team. The final event held yearly is Chalk Fest and Hydromania. Averaging a total of 600 children each year, participants fill the River Commons, chalk in hand, to decorate the concrete and blacktop. Pennsylvania American Water is on hand to educate the community on water, watersheds, and the Susquehanna River through interactive water activities and demonstrations. 

Summer Learning Students Steal the Show By Melissa Hughes

2016 / 2017 NEPA Outlook

The talented young scholars in Wyoming Seminary’s Performing Arts Institute are spending their summer practicing and learning – expanding their skillset through this creative arts program. These incredible students from around the world have the unique opportunity to work extensively with professionals in their field who are committed to each individual student’s success. The summer program, which offers instruction in musical theatre, dance, voice, and a variety of musical instruments, is in its 16th year and continues to expand and progress. All performances are produced in The Alan P. and Marian Sutherland Kirby Center for Creative Arts, the school’s recently constructed, 34,652 square foot and 600 seat state-of-the-art theater. Located on the Upper School Campus, the two-story center also includes instructional and gallery space. Students ages 13–18 have the opportunity to learn from a daily

curriculum that includes theater workshops, private lessons, production rehearsals, and more. The students work directly with industry professionals, including directors, stage hands, and choreographers. Faculty members work side by side with the students, and even perform in the shows, creating a challenging, mentorship-based, skill building environment. This year, U.S. Army Blue Band member Steve Fidyk will be working alongside Jenn Rose, a Barrymore nominated choreographer, and Tim Early, Opus 1 Contemporary Dance director, to bring the showstopping favorite, Chicago, to The Alan P. and Marian Sutherland Kirby Center stage. In previous years, the Performing Arts Institute has produced popular modern plays such as Les Misérables, Kiss Me Kate, Fiddler on the Roof, and West Side Story. These student productions are free and open to the public. This summer program includes Wyoming Seminary students, as well

as international students from various locations. When speaking about the program, Todd Christopher, Director of The Performing Arts Institute of Wyoming Seminary, beamed with pride over his talented students, saying, “We travel all over the world to find the best of the best and bring them to our community so they can share their gifts with the world. I can’t say enough wonderful things about these kids.” Several of these students have gone on to tour nationally in Broadway shows, returning as seasoned alumnae to Wyoming Seminary to encourage the new generation of students to embrace the arts. The goal of the program is not only to provide the students with an indepth learning experience, but also to cultivate their passions into a fun, create outlet. Wyoming Seminary’s Performing Arts Institute programs educate these talented youths and give them the tools for a lifetime of success. 

McCarthy Tire

Celebrating 90 Years of Service By Meghan Flanagan

Throughout their 90 years of service success in the transportation industry, family has remained at the core of McCarthy Tire Service’s operation. “One thing about our family and about our business is that, as a family, we are hands on,” says Kathleen McCarthy Lambert, chief financial officer of McCarthy Tire, “Many of us work here. We have to be here. Our customers need to see us.”

2016 / 2017 NEPA Outlook

McCarthy Tire Service began in 1926 under the leadership of Joseph J. McCarthy in one small store on North Main Street in WilkesBarre, Pennsylvania. With only two employees, McCarthy started out primarily selling General Tires. Expanding to twenty employees, McCarthy moved the business to Scott Street. In 1962, he moved the company once again to the flagship store on Kidder Street – a location that has remained in the family for fifty-four years. McCarthy’s son, John D. McCarthy, Sr., took over as president in 1968,

and he expanded the business by building a retread plant on the back of the Kidder Street property. The third generation, John D. McCarthy, Jr., and Kathleen McCarthy Lambert, joined the company in the early 1980s. The company began enlarging its footprint by acquiring stores. It quickly grew to eight stores across Pennsylvania, with a total of 104 employees and 47 trucks. John D.

McCarthy, Jr., became president of McCarthy Tire in 1997. He identified many opportunities in the commercial tire market, and he began focusing on selling to large fleets and marketing off-the-road tires. Under his leadership, McCarthy Tire continued to acquire smaller commercial stores. It has steadily expanded to include more than fifty stores and retread plants across

Pennsylvania, Maryland, New York, New Jersey, Virginia, West Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia. The company now supports more than 1,000 employees.

“My father used to say, ‘I can’t tell anyone to respect you; you have to earn someone’s respect.’ and that’s what we did. It was hard work, but it was good work,” says Lambert.

McCarthy Tire Service has grown into the sixth largest commercial tire dealer in the country, with a 90 percent commercial focus and a 10

Lambert also cites her parents as the driving force behind the company’s dedication to the community. “They were involved in

spread to become a business model that stretches across their multi-state footprint - a model that is based in both community and philanthropy. To honor their employees’ service and dedication to the company, McCarthy Tire Service is hosting a celebration in each of their 47 stores to honor their 90th anniversary.

“Creating a culture that respects people for the job they do, recognizing the importance of family values, and paying fair wages and benefits.”

“We’ve grown because we’ve been able to expand along the East Coast with the same business model that was so successful in this area. Our businesses model is customer service, a quality product, and our dedicated employees. That’s what has worked - that philosophy, and always being in contact with our employees,” says Lambert. President John D. McCarthy, Jr., believes that “creating a culture that respects people for the job they do, recognizing the importance of family values, and paying fair wages and benefits” enables McCarthy Tire to hire and retain quality workers. Both Lambert and McCarthy began their careers at an early age. “We were here all the time with my father to help out. I would be doing some filing in the office area. My brother would be sweeping the shop, emptying garbage cans, or hauling old tires from a junk area into a scrap tire trailer,” says Lambert. Lambert started in the office with her CPA license. She worked her way up to be the controller, and eventually to become the chief financial officer of the company. McCarthy worked in every aspect of the business - the retread shop, the warehouse, and both the retail and commercial ends of the business, before becoming president of the company.

The Game Chateau During the brief time period that The Game Chateau has been open, the business and its leaders have made significant strides toward connecting and growing the gaming and art communities of Northeastern Pennsylvania.

The Game Chateau was opened in March of 2016, primarily to fill a need in the local gaming community for a venue that allowed gamers to meet, relax, and play for an unlimited amount of time at a fixed rate. Chris Moore, CEO and co-founder of The Game Chateau partnered with co-

2016 / 2017 NEPA Outlook

founder Elle Hammond to develop a relaxed gaming atmosphere where customers can feel at home. “We want people to feel like they’re sitting around at their house. We don’t necessarily want it to feel like a business. We want people to be comfortable and to enjoy themselves,” says Moore. The store’s broad array of games came from a mixture of Moore’s personal collection, strategic buying, and Kickstarter investments. Moore also keeps an eye out for interesting games that customers bring into the shop from home. Some of their most popular games include Exploding Kittens, Rock ‘em Sock ‘em Robots, and Splendor. The Game Chateau has also formed various partnerships with local businesses and art leaders to diversify and broaden their client base and services. They feature an in-house café with Electric City Roasting coffee and Sanitary Bakery pastries, and have developed a partnership with

neighboring restaurant The Café: An American Bistro, where customers can order from a modified lunch menu and have their orders delivered right to the Game Chateau. Located on Highway 315, less than a mile from Interstate 81, the shop’s centralized location is convenient for their clientele. They have regular customers travelling from Scranton and Carbondale who utilize Interstate 81, which is only a mile away. In addition to engaging the gaming community, the Game Chateau is very involved in the local art scene. They have partnered with the Little Theatre of Wilkes-Barre on a local anti-bullying charity fundraiser, which featured the Breaking Ground Poets, and local comedians and musicians who donated their time to the cause. They are also building a curriculum of in-house art and culture workshops in poetry, screenwriting, fiction, creative non-fiction, short stories, and specialty one-day workshops that will run for a single session.

Highway 315 is home to a diverse stretch of businesses from a variety of sectors, all of which support the large amount of consumer traffic passing along the strip on a daily basis. Businesses like The Game Chateau, The Café: An American Bistro, Isabella Restaurant and Bar, A.C. Fitness, The Woodlands Inn, and BAYADA Home Health Care offer a broad range of entertainment, cuisine, and services to travelers new to Northeaster n

“Each full workshop is typically four weeks. We bring in accredited professionals, who have all either taught or worked in the field for years. We are lucky enough to get these professionals to come here and give their time,” says Hammond. “It is a resume builder. Participants are getting a great opportunity and it’s free. That was our main goal – to be able to bring it in for free.” “They are very well structured,

and that’s how we want to keep it. Essentially, we want these to be college-level workshops,” says Moore. Each workshop hosts about eleven people per the instructor’s request, as well as to maintain normal business routines. Moore and Hammond hope to grow the classes and have launched a GoFundMe Campaign to develop an arts fund for the workshops, which will remain separate from the business financials.

The Café: An American Bistro When entering the restaurant, customers of The Café: An American Bistro are greeted to an eclectic dining experience. A formal wine and cocktail bar gives way to a smaller coffee bar, which features a specialty drink menu and fresh, homemade pastries. Coolers with take-out beer line the back wall, positioned underneath the restaurant’s lunch menu board, which features a diverse menu of vegetarian, vegan, gluten

free, and Boar’s Head brand premium meat and cheese sandwiches, salads, subs, wraps, and paninis. Customers are not limited to what is listed on the menu. The Café is happy to take custom orders. “Whatever the customer wants, we will make it happen. We are very diverse in the type and style of food that we create,” says President and Founder Jeff Woytowich.

Hammond is excited to bring awareness to the local art community, commenting, “The local art scene was always something in which I was involved. With this shop, I was able to take what I was doing on the side and bring it into a physical space, which was big for me. It was also significant because of my background in art outside of the area, being able to realize that we also have that in NEPA, and showing that to some of the younger generations.”

A three-quarter wall acts as a transition point into formal dining seating. Commenting on the design, Woytowich says, “The setup that I wanted was to have two environments. I wanted it separated, but I didn’t want it separate.”

2016 / 2017 NEPA Outlook

The Café serves a broad array of dishes and food types, the most popular of which are their gorgonzola filet, their sea bass dish, and their chicken boursin. They also cater events on and off site, including corporate events, weddings, showers, parties, and special events, including semi-annual NASCAR events. “It is unique. It switches gears. Come in at lunchtime, and it is a big corporate place. You order at the counter, and everyone is in a bit of a hurry. They want to get in and get out. It is very fast paced,” says Woytowich.” At five o’clock, it

switches over to formal dining, where the menu goes more into seafood, veal, steaks, etc.” “We are constantly rotating food. Every day we have food orders and food deliveries coming in, because it’s diverse between lunch, dinner, and catering,” says Woytowich. “We do things that other places don’t do – it’s what keeps us a little bit different than the rest of the industry.” Jeff Woytowich grew up in the food business. His mother had a catering company, which he helped with throughout high school and college, and both sides of his family owned grocery stores. Twenty-four years ago, he took this experience in the food industry and invested it in a small 15,000 square foot restaurant on Route 315. Focusing on lunch and catering services, the business quickly expanded, and soon relocated

to a larger location on Highway 315, where they are currently housed. At their new location, they moved into formal dining services and added a larger banquet space, the Nouveau Room, which seats up to 85 and complements their existing Board Room, which seats up to 18. Woytowich calls the addition of the banquet room one of his best strategic choices, saying “You’re able to get consistent restaurant food in a restaurant environment, rather than going out to a different type of venue.” To further accommodate their customers, The Café will even close the whole restaurant for multiple or single events, opening up the space to allow for food stations, or adjusting the layout to build upon the formal dining experience.

315 has allowed The Café to reach a diverse client base and develop partnerships with local businesses, particularly area hotels.

One of these local vendors is Robert Tambur’s daughter, Liza, the founding manager of Isabella Restaurant and Bar, and the creator of its name and design. Always an animal lover, Liza named the restaurant after her beloved dog. Isabella Restaurant and Bar was opened to provide a place for Liza to explore her passion for food. She has since expanded that love outside of the establishment to pursue organic farming. By supplying organic products, she remains a vital contributor to the menu. Isabella Restaurant and Bar makes everything from scratch, including their signature desserts, and all of their pasta. “The high food quality has been there since day one,” says Steever. “Over the years, they’ve learned what products provide the best quality, and how and where to obtain it.”They have recently expanded their services, adding a

new Sunday brunch every week from 10 a.m. – 2 p.m. General Manager Fran Dolan and her team have also started to identify and plan special events, including an Italian Night, a Mediterranean Night, and a Cinco de Mayo celebration. Their menu is also undergoing some changes, including

evening specials that feature creative new flavor options. “It’s a great time to try us again if you haven’t been here recently, as well as for those coming in for the first time. You can see how the menu has recently expanded,” says Dolan.

Whether guests come in for lunch, dinner, or a special event, they are likely to see owner Robert Tambur greeting guests or eating dinner with his family. “He will stop in at lunch or dinner and walk around the tables,

thanking each guest. If he doesn’t know someone, he will make sure that he has a conversation with them,” says Dolan. Tambur’s personalized attention extends out in the community as well. He makes sure that Isabella Restaurant and Bar gives back by donating gift certificates, and hosting non-profit events.

The restaurant also features an expansive bar space and a stateof-the-art private event room, the Solano Room. Named after a close family friend of the Tambur’s, the Solano Room is used for business, corporate, and special occasion functions. The room seats up to 45 guests, and includes an 80-inch flat screen TV with laptop connections, audio visual portals, and WIFI. The entire restaurant will close for larger private events, combining the seating for 45 in the Solano Room with the seating for 70 in the main restaurant space. Isabella Restaurant and Bar offers group dining menus for these occasions – hosts can even design their own.

A.C. Fitness

After completing a total facility remodel in 2015, the newly named A.C. Fitness exercise facility aims to focus on rounded, complete, and personalized fitness training.

2016 / 2017 NEPA Outlook

“We try to preach the message of one pound at a time, nothing extreme. When we coach and work with people, we also educate them. We want to emphasize the holistic approach, which includes nutrition, exercise, trying to manage stress, getting better sleep, and staying hydrated,” says Jeff Jones, General Manager of A.C. Fitness. “Fitness is a constantly evolving industry, and there’s a lot of focus now on functional training, on getting results quickly. Instead of just circuit based or machine based exercise, we’re looking at the individual, and basing fitness on that individual need.” Owner Robert Tambur bought the facility twenty-five years ago, when

it was primarily a racquetball club known as Royal Courts. Renaming the facility the Athletic Club, he converted the upper floor into office space and rebuilt the bottom portion into a gym, slowly decreasing the number of racquetball courts down to the two that they currently operate. Their location on Highway 315 brings in high traffic levels and seasonal sport trainees. “This is an ideal location. Route 315 has only grown over the years. When we say that we’re in-between The Woodlands Inn and Mohegan Sun Pocono, people know exactly where to find us,” says Jones. The 2015 remodel updated this foundational model by upgrading all of the equipment and adding new machines. The facility now houses an aerobics area for cardiovascular fitness, two separate steam rooms, a sauna, facilities for massage therapy,

facilities for strength training, indoor golf simulators equipped with Trackman and loaded with 95 difference courses, two racquetball courts, and more functional fitness options like kettlebells, stability balls, and foam rollers. “Our membership has been growing since the grand re-opening, and we’re pleased. We have a high percentage of local racquetball players in the gym, with about 50 that play regularly. I’ve had some of the same people here for twenty-five years

playing racquetball,” says Tambur. They currently offer a strength training class specifically for women, a circuit class for body toning, and a spinning class. They are also developing additional programs targeting weight management, nutrition, and stress management, as well as a possible executive wellness program.

“We are not looking for the quantity of just bringing people in and not meeting their needs. What we strive for here is excellence in service and providing results. When people get results, they keep coming back. We have a very loyal customer base now, and we hope to expand that,” says Jones. “By having knowledgeable, compassionate, and educated trainers, we can help you reach your goals. That’s really why people come here. You are coming because you want to see certain results, whether it is for weight loss, cosmetic reasons, to build strength, or for post-rehab exercise, and we can certainly help with all of that.”

Tambur cites his employees as a driving force in the success of A.C. Fitness, saying, “I think it is the fact that we have two outstanding trainers with a lot of experience. Their approach to fitness is better than our competitors, because of their experience and knowledge. They are here to show you how to become stronger and to improve your balance and strength.”

They focus on single person or small group trainings in order to give each client an educational foundation in technique and safety, and to emphasize a one-on-one studentteacher relationship.

The Woodlands Inn For Michele Valenti, General Manager at The Woodlands Inn, The Woodlands Experience is “customer service that sets us above the norm. When you walk into The Woodlands Inn, you are greeted with a smile, the door is opened for you, the staff says good morning, and every employee engages the customer.”

2016 / 2017 NEPA Outlook

“We provide a friends and family reception where the hotel guests are invited to meet the managers on duty. They can have a complimentary beverage and mingle. It is just our way of welcoming them to the hotel and letting them know that we’re there to speak with them, get to know them, and thank them for their business,” says Valenti. Guests staying at The Woodlands Inn are welcomed into the family-

friendly environment with an exclusive complimentary breakfast, which features made-to-order omelets and coffee. In addition to complimentary WIFI and free parking, The Woodlands Inn offers a courtesy Mercedes shuttle service to and from Mohegan Sun Pocono. The pet-friendly property also features walking paths for both their animal and human guests, as well as a variety of guest amenities, including an indoor pool, a heated outdoor pool, and their 17,000 gallon Jacuzzi - the largest on the east coast! Guests have the option of staying in several streamside rooms with balconies, as well as a variety of suites. The Presidential Suite was so named after George W. Bush, who stayed there when he came to visit

Northeastern Pennsylvania in 2004. The room was originally two separate spaces, but was combined and remodeled to meet his specifications. Seven years ago, The Woodlands Inn became part of the Choice Hotel Group, who allowed them to retain their individuality and continue crafting a unique and personal guest experience. “Typically when you’re part of a chain, you have to conform,” says Valenti. “We could never possibly turn into anything else, because it’s a very sprawling property, and it would never fit into that mold. We became part of the Choice Hotels Ascend collection, which is a group of unique boutique type hotels, and they let those hotels keep their individuality, while providing access to their central reservation system, their advertising, and their Choice

In addition to being a 150-room getaway hotel, The Woodlands Inn also provides on and off-site catering services, and is home to Shogun Japanese Steakhouse Hibachi and Sushi Bar, Crescenzo’s Brick Oven Eatery and Espresso Bar, Evolution Nightclub, the Streamside Bandstand and Executive Lounge, The SKYY Vu Deck Bar, Alexander’s in the Woods full service day spa, The Grove outdoor wedding and special event venue, and 1200 square feet of banquet space for on-site events - all packed into one premiere location. For on-property weddings, “The wedding party takes over the entire hotel and become the priority. When they have their cocktail hour on the deck, the deck is closed to our regular customers. It’s been like that for years. It’s all about the happy couplewhatever they need.” Corporate meetings are also a highlight of what The Woodlands offers the area, providing state of the art audio visual equipment, comfortable meeting

space, and beautifullyappointed guest rooms for out of town visitors. The Woodlands Inn also holds charity events on the SKYY Vu Deck Bar. “Monday through Thursday you can have a 2-3 hour event on the deck. 50% of the profit for the first two hours and 25% of the profit for any addition time is donated back to the charitable organization hosting the event. We provide entertainment and light snacks. The charity can actually come and invite all their friends and family to this event.

It’s a wonderful way to raise money and awareness,” says Valenti. In addition to their charity

events, The Woodlands Inn remains connected to the local community through its partnerships. They work with local businesses like Montage Mountain, Mohegan Sun Pocono, The Crossings Premium Outlets, Blue Ridge Trail Golf Club, and many more to create specialty outdoor, event, shopping, and golf packages, with many innovative ideas in the works. These partnerships are made possible due to their ideal location on

Highway 315. “I think the location is great because it keeps improving and building. Over the years, there are more and more businesses, and so many great reasons for people to come here,” says Valenti. “I think our proximity to Mohegan Sun Pocono is really important. We are the closest full-service hotel to the Casino, and even though they have their own hotel, our partnership with them is beneficial because we provide a getaway destination.”

BAYADA Home Health Care

2016 / 2017 NEPA Outlook

Providing nursing, rehabilitative, therapeutic, hospice, and assistive care services to their Northeastern Pennsylvania patients and beyond, BAYADA Home Health Care has been taking care of our community since 1990, when they opened their first local office in Kingston. “BAYADA Home Health Care moved to Wilkes-Barre in December of 2015. We are one location on Highway 315 but we have two offices - one office that serves patients 18 and under and another that serves those 18 and over,” says Ellen Siracuse, BAYADA Pediatrics Recruiting Manager. “BAYADA’s central location lets people easily find our office. With recognizable landmarks like Mohegan Sun Pocono and The Woodlands Inn, this location is very accessible. Our sign is right on Highway 315, which allows for people to see it on a daily basis. People are always encouraged to walk in and apply, as well. Our plaza allows for people to apply for a job and get a bite to eat afterwards!” During their time in Northeastern Pennsylvania, BAYADA has expanded considerably. “BAYADA has experienced significant growth since beginning in this area. So much so, that we now have multiple offices

in multiple counties specializing in various aspects of care. BAYADA believes in having specialization, in order to remain focused and to provide the best quality care possible,” says Siracuse. BAYADA offices, both local and worldwide, provide high quality home health care assistance to children, adults, and seniors. They rely on a team of professional nurses, therapists, home health aides, and social workers to assist individuals and their families in coping with a broad range of illnesses and disabilities. Grounded in the core values of compassion, excellence, and reliability, BAYADA’s diverse team

and services allow for continuous, consistent care that can meet any new or existing patient needs. Patient care is supervised by a registered nurse clinical manager, and each team is visited periodically by expert clinical specialists who educate and provide care assessments. The broad range of services that BAYADA offers, and the diversity of their team and their specialties allows the company to adapt to the needs and healthcare demands of each client over time. The treatment process begins with the formulation of a care plan, which relies on input from the patient, their family, their primary care physician,

and a team of company professionals. The patient is matched with the team members and services that best fit their needs. The resulting team is then oriented by the client manager, who remains present in the case through monthly visits, when the needs of the client are reevaluated, and new needs are identified. This process is made possible by the invested, educated, and caring employees that BAYADA recruits and retains. They care deeply about their patients and the community in which they serve. “Our office enjoys supporting our community in many benefits and fundraising events such as walks, open houses and job fairs.

District

Progress in expanding emerging industries, driving technology, retaining local talent, and increasing residential living options is enabling downtown Wilkes-Barre to grow into the area’s innovation district. Innovation districts are becoming a fixture across the U.S. by leveraging local colleges and universities, start-up companies, established businesses, office spaces, retailers, and residential opportunities to support and increase their downtown walkabilty, as well as to foster innovative and entrepreneurial ecosystems. Locally headquartered industry leaders in performance marketing, digital advertising, technology, retail, and architecture have provided the backbone and innovative energy needed to create this type of progressive environment right in downtown Wilkes-Barre. These highly successful assets include Pepperjam, The Allan P. Kirby Center for Free Enterprise and Entrepreneurship at Wilkes University, the Wilkes-Barre City Market and Café, DxDempsey Architecture, ReferLocal, and KBJ Capital investments.

Pepperjam

2016 / 2017 NEPA Outlook

Throughout their progression from a local start-up to a world leader in performance marketing technology, Pepperjam has remained in Wilkes-Barre for seventeen successful years. With nine offices located in the U.S., Australia, Canada, and the U.K., Pepperjam has chosen to move their headquarters to the heart of Wilkes-Barre, where the company made its start. Pepperjam began as an offshoot of a gourmet food company in the 1990’s. Through the process of selling homemade jam, founders Kristopher Jones and Michael Jones identified new, early stage internet

marketing channels like search marketing and affiliate marketing. They explored and developed those channels, first building a strategy, and then growing a business. Pepperjam has since become one of the nation’s premier leaders in these channels. Pepperjam moved into the Innovation Center in downtown Wilkes-Barre in 2004, and became one of the incubator’s first tenants. It has since expanded from its original small, shared office space to take over the entire third floor of the building, with plans for continued expansion as they add 10-20 jobs yearly.

“We are in a place where we need innovative, young talent, and the universities provide that. It is the right recipe. I see Wilkes-Barre very much as an undiscovered gem. I think we have proven that

which increased their client-base to include the NFL, Major League Baseball, Dick’s Sporting Goods, Calvin Klein, and Toys “R” Us. In 2011, GSI was acquired by eBay, Inc. during a $2.4 billion transaction, and Pepperjam became eBay Enterprise. eBay Enterprise then became eBay Marketing Solutions in November of 2015, when the company was purchased by private equity firms. According to Jones, who has remained a senior leader in WilkesBarre since the organization’s inception, what has remained constant throughout the process are the people. They have allowed the company to maintain its identity.

you can not only build out a nice small company, but also grow a large enterprise level technology company in one of the most hyperevolving spaces in the world, which is digital commerce,” says Michael C.Jones, Founder and CEO, “Working with people that embody things like drive, intelligence, and integrity – those are really the three things we look for in all of our employees and interns.” According to Michael Jones, 45% of their staff is comprised of former interns, hired from local colleges and universities. “From 2004-2007, we focused on services and quickly became one of the best-known leading digital marketing service companies in the United States,” said Jones of Pepperjam’s early days. Pepperjam built its own proprietary technology, an affiliate marketing network, in-house with its own programmers. With a new focus on technology, Pepperjam gained the attention of major buyers, and went through an intense period of acquisitions. In 2009, they were acquired by GSI Commerce, an ecommerce service and technology provider,

During the 2015 purchase, Jones moved the company headquarters from King of Prussia to WilkesBarre, and purchased several additional businesses, including local company Digital Net Agency and two west coast additions, AffiliateTraction and AdAssured. Jones also chose to rebrand eBay Marketing Solutions by bringing back the original Pepperjam name, of which they still owned the rights. Jones comments, “Many of our clients and our partners across the U.S. still refer to us as Pepperjam. That’s the name that they never forgot. I think it’s a very memorable name and a very memorable brand, and it carries quite a bit of brand significance in the market already.” Jones identifies an essential component of Pepperjam’s identity as community involvement. Their employees are constantly trying to find new ways to improve the area by participating in volunteer events, investing in sponsorships, hosting benefits, and donating to local charities. “We have an ongoing culture of giving back. It’s very important to us as an organization, and it’s really in our DNA,” says Jones.

The Allan P. K irby Center for Free Enterprise and Entrepreneurship The Allan P. Kirby Center for Free Enterprise and Entrepreneurship’s current model was brought to life by the visionary Dr. Rodney S. Ridley, Sr., Executive Director of the Allan P. Kirby Center. His goal is to bring Allan P. Kirby’s dream of enriching the community to life by incorporating real-world business practices into the classroom. The facility’s namesake, Allan P. Kirby, aimed to change the economic future of the community and expand industrial outreach through education, business development, and community resources. Dr. Ridley is a pioneer for change in the areas of industrial growth, entrepreneurial development, and business education. He has earned

Company’s snacks and candies, the Good Hive honey products, and Sandy’s Table baked goods. Cawley has a diverse background in public accounting, economic development, government financing, and real estate finance. Originally from Lackawanna County, Cawley began spending more time in Luzerne County because of client demand and his appreciation for the aesthetic setup of downtown Wilkes-Barre. The idea for this combination market was based on smaller grocery stores in New York City, Cleveland, and Orlando that became successfully involved with simple food service. Additionally, the craft beer movement, both locally and nationally, was a component that Cawley wanted to introduce to the downtown. After significant market research, Cawley identified a demand in the area for

this type of grocery store, which became the City Market and Café. The City Market and Café opens in two phases. The first phase opened at the end of June, with the second planned to roll out in September of 2016. The market is a Boar’s Head distributor, and currently features diverse sandwiches with 10-20 specials. They also offer specialty pizzas, calzones, deli salads, candy and baked goods, produce, bottled beverages, specialty coffee, boxed and canned grocery items, household goods, fruit cups, yogurt, dairy items, cheeses, newspapers, and lottery tickets. The second phase will feature made-to-order meals and breakfast sandwiches. The market is divided into two sections, one of which holds all the food and household items, and features an entire wall dedicated

The Allan P. Kirby Center, established in 1993, helps to educate and encourage students to develop their ideas into a sustainable business model with the support of active mentors in the business community. A key component of this mission involves mentorship – aligning students with active business and community leaders that can assist them in their growth and progression. The programs offered through Wilkes University support students by providing business, product, and marketing development, as well as financial

to igourmet products, which will be selected specifically for our area’s needs and demands. The second section is reserved for craft beer coolers. Cawley has hired a manager who is dedicated solely to the craft beer section of the market, and who can educate the consumer on specific brews. Cawley hopes this will significantly contribute to the development of an Innovation District in Wilkes-Barre, commenting “From an economic development perspective, you take

the spoke and the wheel – you start developing from the center, and then everything starts to expand.” To contribute to this innovative model, Cawley identifies that you need “a residence component, a retail component, and a commercial component, but at the same time, you have to try to stimulate business, whether it be young, medium or old, to get to that next level.” Another key component is the community, which Cawley intends to involve in everything from

the building design to consumer focused events. He intends to utilize his expansive wall space to feature a community wall, where visitors can post a bumper sticker of their hometown. The walls also feature historic and comparison photographs of past and present Wilkes-Barre, from as far back as the 1900’s. The craft beer section of the market will also be open for cheese and beer pairing events, which will be catered to the interests of the surrounding community.

DxDempsey Architecture

2016 / 2017 NEPA Outlook

During the construction of her parent’s historic, coal breaker inspired home on Lake Ariel, Michele Dempsey remembers unexpectedly falling in love with NEPA. “There was so much happening here--I felt a good energy and I love being on the cusp of change. It became apparent that if you had good ideas and were willing to act on them, there was no shortage of 32

people who would support you. So I started DxDempsey Architecture in our local business incubator and it has developed into a firm that is committed to compelling, brand-focused, and result-oriented design solutions. We are passionate about helping our clients and communities thrive,” says Michele Dempsey, AIA, LEED AP, Founder and President of DxDempsey Architecture.

“NEPA is the perfect place for entrepreneurs with big ideas and little capital. The cost of starting a business is less than in major metropolitan areas, yet with incubators like the Innovation Center, the support is there. Also, we have amazing local clients, but one of our biggest clients is based in Las Vegas. Technology allows us to work with them seamlessly while being based in an area with a manageable cost of living that allows me to be able to reinvest more into the company.” Founded in 2003, DxDempsey has since worked on various residential, retail, commercial, planning, and conceptual projects throughout Pennsylvania, as well as in New Jersey, New York, Texas, Connecticut, and Nevada. “Our retail and corporate projects also have a history of producing results that have a net positive impact on the bottom line. We also enjoy getting involved in

planning and having an effect on the bigger picture,” says Dempsey. DxDempsey has also worked on an extremely successful residential development project in downtown Wilkes-Barre. The firm converted the 8th floor of the historic former Citizens Bank Building into 12 luxury apartments in 2015. “We wanted to create open, modern

living spaces that rivaled the big cities, respected the historic building, and took advantage of the fabulous views,” Dempsey explains. They preserved the history of the former Citizens Bank, built in 1911, throughout the corridors by using the original marble wainscoting and paying homage to the original wood trim and inlaid panel doors and hardware. The apartments themselves have a modern feel, featuring high ceilings, expansive kitchen space, and hardwood floors. The apartments are currently leased and, according to Dempsey, “the developer will be looking to add some more in the near future.”

When asked about the project’s impact on the downtown, Dempsey comments, “A healthy downtown is key to a strong community and people living downtown is an integral piece of that puzzle. People who live downtown also shop and eat downtown. They start neighborhood watches and help enforce safety. With a new trend towards urbanization, many young professionals and “empty nesters” want the density, walkability and access to amenities that downtown living affords them. The success of The Bank and similar projects is a strong indicator of revitalization in Wilkes-Barre.”

KBJ Capital

stage technology investment fund, KBJ Capital, Jones has become the founder, CEO, and principal investor of ReferLocal, ReferLocal VIP, APPEK Mobile Apps, and LSEO.com. In 2010, Jones started KBJ Capital to provide funding to “young entrepreneurs and to do

whatever I could as a business coach, as an investor, or as a mentor, to see them succeed. “ “In some instances with KBJ Capital, I am investing in companies that I have founded. ReferLocal is one of those examples where I just envisioned building a piece of technology that helped traditional media companies, like newspaper, radio, and T.V., better compete for advertising dollars and for the money that was moving from the traditional means to an online space,” explains Jones. In 2011, Jones became the lead investor in ReferLocal, a digital advertising platform for businesses of all sizes that boasts a database

of over 200,000 customers just in Northeastern Pennsylvania. Jones says the key to ReferLocal’s success has been partnerships. He cites Times-Shamrock Communications, Bold Gold Media, and their combined radio and print media outlets, as well as Mohegan Sun Pocono, as essential strategic partners. In the first year of operation, ReferLocal made $2.5 million in revenue. Jones hopes to deepen these partnerships, and eventually take the program national. ReferLocal has since expanded to include the ReferLocal VIP Program, a subscription program that features benefits like free slot play at Mohegan Sun Pocono, discounts on the ReferLocal deal site and at dozens of participating local businesses, and a 24/7 concierge line. Members receive an exclusive black, metallic membership card that gives them access to these benefits, including presale tickets at the Mohegan Sun Arena at Casey Plaza, the F.M. Kirby Center for the Performing Arts, and Mohegan Sun Pocono. The program’s core benefit is an elevated experience at Mohegan Sun Pocono, which

2016 / 2017 NEPA Outlook

includes priority seating at Timber’s Buffet and the Rustic Kitchen. Two more of Jones’ endeavors, APPEK Mobile Apps and LSEO.com, have achieved success in NEPA and beyond. APPEK Mobile Apps began as an investment in the capabilities of two local entrepreneurs, Andrew Herman and Adam Ceresko. APPEK was born with intention of developing boutique mobile applications for funded startups, and later reinvesting in the founder’s own ideas when the company had raised enough capital. APPEK quickly became a million dollar company and produced The French Girls App, a platform where commissioned artists turn uploaded selfies into artwork. The company raised over $6 million in fundraising efforts, with investments led by Tier A Silicon Valley startup funds, and are now located in San Francisco. Their staff has a combined 50+ years of experience in mobile app design and development. “APPEK partnered with UM Technologies and the two companies are positioning to be a leading mobile

app development company in the U.S. We have built apps for celebrities, professional athletes, and for large companies. It is a company that continues to be successful,” Jones says. Jones also built and funded LSEO. com, which has a growing staff of thirteen of the top digital marketing professionals in the business. LSEO. com is a high-end SEO and digital marketing agency for all types of businesses, and was named one of the top fifteen SEO consultants in the U.S. by Clutch. Jones chose to grow these companies in Wilkes-Barre because, “There is a ton of opportunity to leverage through the resources here, and a lot of opportunity to get involved and make a difference in the community,” Jones says. “If you want to build a significant business within any industry, it probably is going to be easier to do it here in NEPA, because there are so many resources available. You are not going to get lost.” 

“What started 33 years ago as a small town festival has since become a spectacular event for all of Northeastern Pennsylvania. We have a great deal of pride in our city, and it’s wonderful to see so many people from and outside of Pittston visit,” says Lori Nocito, Chair of the Pittston Tomato Festival. Known as one of the best festivals in Northeastern Pennsylvanian, The Pittston Tomato Festival is a four day event that features delicious food, a variety of live entertainment, a parade, 5K run, games, rides, arts and crafts, bingo, the Queen Scholarship Pageant, the Mr. and Miss Tomato Contest, and home-grown Pittston tomatoes – the focal point of the entire event. The event brings in crowds of over fifty thousand people annually. The Greater Pittston Chamber of Commerce is proud to support the event. “The energies and efforts from all the volunteers of the Pittston Tomato Festival are inspiring. We are so lucky to have one of the best festivals in our backyard. Summer doesn’t end in Pittston until you crown the Tomato Queen, vote on an ugly tomato, or throw tomatoes at other people for a great cause!” says Brandi Bartush, Executive Assistant at the Greater Pittston Chamber of Commerce. The Annual Pittston Tomato Fights are one of the central traditions of the festival. Based on tomato fights held since 1944 in Bunol, Spain on their town square, the Pittston Tomato Fight participants throw rotten tomatoes in friendly competition to benefit Greater Pittston charities. “The Pittston Tomato Festival is a fun community event with something for everyone. It is so much more than just a festival, and there are wonderful things happening in the city all year, with more to come,” says Nocito. “There is so much community and economic development taking place all year round in downtown Pittston. Many new businesses are located in downtown Pittston, as well as brand new residential apartments and older homes. People and business move here because they want to be a part of such a hip and up and coming place.”

Created in 1981, Leadership Wilkes-Barre is a community leadership development organization that seeks out future leaders and provides them with the information, skills and training needed to become leaders and active participants in the community. Programs are aimed at a spectrum of participants ranging from adolescents and seniors to mid-career professionals and newcomers to Northeastern Pennsylvania. Leadership WilkesBarre’s six programs include: Core, Executive, Junior, Intercollegiate, and our newest program, Impact, for regional primary and secondary teachers. Over 2,000 alumni have graduated from these programs. “We empower people to become engaged in the community through our six core programs and the skills that they foster, including leadership skills, community awareness, and networking. It’s very rewarding to see our alumni become involved in the community and make new friends,” says Lori Nocito, Executive Director. Since 2003, Lori Nocito has been the executive director of Leadership Wilkes-Barre. Lori’s volunteer activities include: Chairperson of the Pittston Tomato Festival, and the Greater Pittston Chamber of Commerce Women’s Network. Member of the Wyoming Valley Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors, member of the Luzerne County Bar Association Lay Advisory Board, Luzerne County Head Start Board of Directors, PNC Bank Community Advisory Board,

Geisinger Northeast Advisory Board, The Broadway Theatre League of Northeastern PA Board, Circle 200 Executive Women’s Network, Association of Leadership Programs, member of the International Leadership Association, member of the United States Military Academy Selection Board and is co-chair of The Commonwealth Medical College Gala committee.

She was named one of the “Top 25 Women in Business” by the Northeast Pennsylvania Business Journal. In addition to various community leadership awards, is the 2015 recipient of the Athena Award presented by the Greater Wilkes-Barre Chamber of Commerce. “It was such a humble honor to be the 30th recipient of such a prestigious ward, and to be given the opportunity to be included in the inspiring group of past recipients, who I look up to and respect,” says Nocito.
