COMPOST FACILITY IMPROVEMENTS

We are in the process of finalizing improvements to the Compost Facility located at 422 S. 24th Street. Facility upgrades will be completed prior to the facility opening on Wednesday, April 1.

These site improvements assure the facility continues to serve as an economically and environmentally beneficial alternative to landfill disposal. One important addition is an automated gate that opens using Access Cards that will be issued by the Borough.

The new access system ensures the Borough can monitor persons entering the facility and limit access to outside commercial contractors as necessary. All persons wishing to use the facility in the 2020 season must obtain an Access Card in order to drop-off yard waste or to pick up leaf compost or mulch. Compost Facility Registration begins Monday, February 24th.

ENVIRONMENTAL CLUB

The Club’s only goal is to try to preserve/improve Camp Hill’s water, air, land and flora We are always looking for members who share our interests in the environment and to energize our organization.

Membership dues are $10/students, $20/adults and a max of $50/family.

Applications are available in the Recreation Office, calling 737-4548, emailing alogar@camphillborough.com or at our meeting.

Our next meeting is Saturday, March 14th, 7:30 am at the West Shore Plaza Restaurant. Come join us!

In 2020, CHEC intends to continue our efforts to recycle at the Siebert Park athletic events and Little League Baseball games. We adopted Market Street and will clean it four times a year as well as other areas of the Borough throughout the warmer weather months. In addition, we help clean out sections of the Conodoguinet Creek five times during the summer months. The first cleanup date is Saturday, May 16th.

Please volunteer to help make these things happen.

Our new initiative for 2020 is to help build a Riparian Buffer along the Conodoguinet Creek section that lies along the northern edge of the borough. A Riparian Buffer consists of trees and other plants within 150 feet of the Creek. The purpose of the trees is to slow down rainwater as it rushes towards the Creek, carrying with it silt and all sorts of pollutants (litter, automotive leakage, lawn chemicals, road ice-treatment, etc) and allow the ground to absorb the rainwater, thus keeping many pollutants from entering the waterway. This protects the watershed and aquatic life as the water travels towards the Chesapeake Bay and the Atlantic Ocean.

Our project is to plant approximately 100 trees that have been donated by the Chesapeake Bay Foundation on Saturday, April 25, from 9 am to 12.

Volunteers are needed to help plant these trees. Tree planting volunteers must register by sending an email to Lisa Beatty, president of the Conodoguinet Creek Watershed Association at ccwadocs@gmail.com Volunteers should bring a shovel and a pair of gloves.

Pucker up…

Lemon-Ups™ join the Girl Scout Cookie™ Line-up!

Celebrity tasters taste newest Girl Scout Cookie and you can too

Girl Scouts across central and northeastern Pennsylvania launch the 2020 Girl Scout Cookie season as they become entrepreneurs to earn money, which powers their own leadership opportunities and adventures. This season, Girl Scouts of USA (GSUSA) announces two sweet new ways to celebrate young female leaders: refreshed packaging reflecting the amazing experiences cookie earnings make possible for girls, and the newest cookie, the Lemon-Ups™. Featuring eight Girl Scout phrases baked right into the cookie’s appearance, Lemon-Ups™ is a crispy lemon cookie dipped in a creamy citrus glaze.

Helping to serve samples to celebrity tasters in Harrisburg were two Camp Hill Girl Scouts: Jocelyn ‘Jocie’ Little and Josephine ‘Josie’ Wertz. Both are juniors at Camp Hill High School and have been involved in Girl Scouts since Daisies.

Jocie is a Gold Award recipient and says she “enjoys Girl Scouts because it has given me the chance to do many things I would not have had the opportunity to before and has given me lifelong friends from all over the world.” Josie “enjoys Girl Scouts because it has allowed me to create lasting friendships with so many people and it has allowed me to learn more about myself and the world around me.” Jocie and Josie, along with their Troop 11967, were able to direct profits from their cookie sales to their troop’s international travel to the Girl Guide’s International facility ‘Our Chalet’ in Adelboden, Switzerland during the summer of 2019. Cookie sales including cookie booths will begin at the end of January and will run thru the beginning of April. For more information, contact Dana Little at 717-805-8748 or Dana@DanaLittle.com.

Codes Enforcement • Minimize driving during and immediately following a snow event. The fewer the vehicles on the roadway allows the operator to clear the road more efficiently.

• Remove vehicles and trailers from the street prior to a winter event. This will allow the operator to clear the street from edge-to-edge.

• Remove basketball hoops from the borough right-of-way.

• Please keep a safe operating distance from winter maintenance vehicles.

• If you have a mailbox along the roadway, periodically check to ensure that the post and mailbox are in good condition. The post and mailbox must be sturdy enough to withstand snow coming off the plow blade.

• Never push, blow or shovel snow into a cleared roadway.

• Never attempt to stop or flag down a plow driver while salting or plowing.

• Clearing a space along the curb or edge of road before your driveway will reduce the amount of the snow placed in your driveway.

• Wait until the street is cleared before shoveling your driveway and sidewalks.

The plow operator will make multiple passes on the same street.

• Plow drivers cannot direct snow as it comes off the plow. Plow blades are fixed to dump snow to the right.

SANITARY SEWER

Do not flush swiffers, cloth or paper rags, baby wipes, baby cloths, dental floss or other similar materials into the sanitary sewer system. These items will cause clogs in both the public and private sewers, damage sewage pumps and increase maintenance costs.

Property owners (private) own and are

responsible for the lateral and the building sewer. The lateral extends from the sewer main in the street to the Right-of-Way (typically behind the curb or sidewalk).

The building sewer extends from the Right-of-Way to the home. The Borough (public) is responsible for the sewer main in the street. Sewer customers are reminded to keep traps in homes/businesses filled with water. This will reduce sewer odors from entering the living and working spaces of the property.

If you experience a sewer emergency during normal working hours (8 AM to 4:30 PM) please call 717-737-3456 and provide your name, address and telephone number. After hours, please call the police department at 717-737-1570 and they will reach out to On-Call personnel. The sewer main will be checked by Public Works Staff and flushed if necessary. If the sewer main is open and free flowing, staff will contact you and recommend you call a plumber.

HAVE YOU INSPECTED YOUR CURB AND SIDEWALK LATELY?

Curb and sidewalk are the responsibility of the property owner as outlined in “Chapter 176-13, Responsibility of the property owner”. Please inspect your curb and sidewalk and make any necessary repairs as outlined in Chapter 176, Streets and Sidewalks-Revised. The Chapter 176 ordinance can be viewed from the borough website…Borough homepage, click Government, click Borough Code under Codes and Zoning, click Chapter 176Streets and Sidewalks-Revised 2018. If you have questions and would like to talk with borough staff about your curb or sidewalk please call 717-737-3456, Ext. 6 and someone will return your call.

10

Within eight (8) hours after snow or ice has stopped falling, sidewalks must be cleared their entire length with a path no less than three feet wide. The hours between 9:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m. are not figured into this period of eight hours. Of equal importance: it is prohibited for

Police Department snow, ice and/or liquids to be shoveled, blown, plowed or discharged into the streets or alleys; this is a citable offense.

OUTDOOR BURNING § 66-7 EXCEPTION TO RESTRICTIONS ON BURNING

Patio and yard wood-burning units used as chimneas, patio warmers, and other portable wood-burning devices used for recreational purposes, provided the following shall apply: (1) only clean wood may be used and burned, (2) patio and yard woodburning units must be located at least 50 feet from the nearest structure which is not on the same property as the patio woodburning unit and (3) use of patio and yard wood-burning units shall not cause a nuisance to neighbors.

FIRE PREVENTION § 113-11 SMOKE DETECTORS AND MEANS OF EGRESS

Smoke detectors save lives. But did you know most homeowners and renters do not check their detectors or replace spent batteries? Smoke detectors must be kept in working order according to the Borough Code. To insure the safety of yourself, family, friends and pets, check smoke detectors in your home annually to make sure they are functioning properly and replace the batteries at the same time.

Also, do not paint over smoke detectors or obstruct them in any manner. Of equal importance is to maintain a clear path of escape (egress) from homes and buildings in the event of an emergency. This means keeping entrances/exits and fire escapes free of obstructions (furniture, plants, rubbish, garbage, etc.) that would impede occupants from evacuating quickly and delay emergency responders from entering the premises.

ANIMALS § 71-11 DISTURBANCE OF THE PEACE

Any animal or bird in the custody of a borough resident which makes any noise continuously and/or incessantly for a period of ten (10) minutes or makes such noise intermittently for ½ hour or more is considered a nuisance.

ANIMALS § 71-12 NUISANCES

When not confined to the owner’s premises, all animals must be under physical control of their owner or custodian

and constrained at all times.

Any animal waste deposited on the ground other than the animal owner’s own private property must be removed immediately and disposed of properly.

IPMC § 304.3 PROPERTY IDENTIFICATION

A number of homes and businesses throughout the Borough have unreadable or missing property numbers.

Under Section 304.3 of the International Property Maintenance Code (IPMC), building numbers must be a minimum of four (4) inches in height and readable from the street by emergency responders. Following the Code and keeping your home or business properly marked, assists Police, Fire and EMS to respond rapidly and effectively. Also, help us to help you by keeping building numbers free of obstructions. In an emergency situation, seconds count.

VEHICLES AND TRAFFIC § 190-21

The parking of boats, trailers, motor homes, travel trailers and commercial motor vehicles, except those of the light delivery type, not exceeding ¾ ton's capacity shall be prohibited on all streets in the Borough of Camp Hill in any residential district according to the zoning classifications and regulations set forth in Chapter 200, Zoning, of this Code.

If you observe violations of these or any Borough code, please call the Code Enforcement Department at (717) 7373456 extension 14 or email at cmiller@camphillborough.com

POLICE DEPARTMENT In 2019, the Camp Hill Police department critically evaluated its’ operations, staffing and organization. As a result of that evaluation, and with the endorsement of Mayor Mark Simpson, the department proposed a re-structuring within the existing staffing complement the department had been operating under. The result was the promotion of Sergeant John Kidman to the rank of Lieutenant, and Patrol

11

Officers Scott Cornelious and Todd Harrer to the rank of Sergeant. These promotions were approved by Borough Council and were effective January 1, 2020.

Lieutenant Kidman joined the Camp Hill Police Department in 1995. He served as a Patrol Officer until 2011, when he was promoted to Sergeant. For much of 2018, he served as Interim Chief of the Camp Hill Police Department. Prior to joining the Camp Hill PD he served with the Upper Mooreland Twp. Police Department from 1994-1995, and the US Navy from 1986-1993. Lieutenant Kidman has attended the Penn State University Police Executive Development (POLEX) program as well as numerous Supervisory, Tactical and Risk Management law enforcement courses.

Sergeant Scott Cornelious joined the Camp Hill Police Department in 1995.

He has served as a Patrol Officer during his tenure with the department. Prior to joining the Camp Hill PD, Sgt. Cornelious served in the US Army from 1987-1990. He continues to serve in the Army National Guard. He obtained an Associates Degree in Police Science from HACC, and a Bachelors Degree from the University of Phoenix in Administration of Justice.

Sergeant Todd Harrer joined the Camp Hill Police Department in 2010. He previously served as a part-time police officer with the Annville Twp. Police Department and the Paxtang Borough Police Department. He also served as a Community Service Officer with the Derry Twp. Police Department. Sgt. Harrer obtained an Associates Degree in

VOLUNTEER OF THE YEAR AWARD Since 2012 Camp Hill Borough has recognized a resident in the borough for their contributions.

The 2019 Volunteer of the Year winner is Lynette Pertschi. She has a long, generous history of volunteering her time and talents in a variety of capacities to make life better in Camp Hill. Over the decades, she has volunteered countless hours with the Camp Hill Soccer Club, the MSHSA (including 7 years as president), Teacher Appreciation Week coordinator, Spiral Path Farm/ North Mountain Pastures Site Host – community members pick up their “farm shares” at her home, the K-12 CHSD Art Show, and many other “behind the scenes” jobs with the borough and the school district.

Most recently, she teamed together with Dana Little to form the Earl Besch Project, an outgrowth of the Lion Foundation’s Earl Besch Fund, as a vibrant community outreach supporting Camp Hill families in need.

Her dedication and energy continue to positively impact our community on a daily basis. She is one of those individuals who, when asked, is always willing to help. For all these reasons and so many more, Lynette Pertschi was the recipient of the Camp Hill Borough’s Volunteerism Award.

CRIME PREVENTION REMINDER

Although we’re still in the midst of winter at the writing of this reminder, it won’t be long before spring and warmer weather are upon us. With the warmer weather often comes an increase in thefts from vehicles. It seems more daylight and warming temperatures also bring out more individuals looking for easy targets of theft from vehicles. Too many people leave valuables in their unlocked, parked cars!

Please don’t become a crime victim!

Remove valuables from your parked vehicles and remember to lock the car anytime you leave it unattended. All too often, residents make it too easy for someone who is looking for an opportunity to steal property. Help yourself not to be a crime victim!

Remove valuables and lock your car!

LIONS CLUB

The Camp Hill Lions Club ended the year with a successful Christmas tree sale.

Thanks to our community support, we were able to earn money to be used for philanthropic projects. But that is not the only accomplishment of this small but active group. During our sale, we were also busy packing 35 cases of "goodies" for the Pennsylvania reservists who were in overseas areas during the holidays. It was an honor and privilege to accomplish this in order to thank our men in uniform.

The Pennsylvania Lions Clubs were acknowledged by Members First Credit Union as volunteers of the week. We are an integral part of the Lions Club International serving those in need. We do our best to live up to our motto "we serve". It is our honor to help those who may not able to help themselves, whether it be new glasses, a holiday dinner, toys for ill children or where help is needed. Our capabilities are diminishing as our club members age or fall ill. We hope the community will step up and help us with new

members. You are always welcome to attend a meeting and share a free meal and friendship. Please feel free to contact me at 717-761-8129. We meet first and third Mondays of the month at Perkins restaurant in Camp Hill. We look forward to meeting new friends and welcoming new members.

AMERICAN LEGION POST 43 American Legion Post 43 in Camp Hill, PA is always searching for new members to join the Post.

The recent passage of the LEGION Act – Let Everyone Get Involved in Opportunities for National Service Act – redefines The American Legion’s membership eligibility dates.

Previous applicants had to have served during very specific wartime periods.

The eligibility to join The American Legion is now open to military veterans who have served on active duty and honorably discharged during a period from December 7, 1941 to the present and until a time when the United States is no longer at war, as determined by Congress.

Most importantly, veterans who were honorably discharged but whose service did not fall into the previous defined war eras may now join The American Legion immediately.

The American Legion has always believed a “veteran is a veteran”, an axiom that has held true throughout the organization’s more than a century of service.

Some veterans were ineligible because of

75 Years Ago… brought to you by the Historical Society of Camp Hill

In 1881, four years prior to Camp Hill separating from East Pennsboro and becoming an independent incorporated Borough, the Township built Pennsylvania’s longest covered bridge. It stretched over the Conodoguinet Creek connecting the farmlands of Enola and Camp Hill.

Although it was just adjacent to our Borough limits, we thought of it as being a part of our town, easily accessed through our Municipal Park, to the lane paralleling the Creek.

During the 1950’s, school sports rivalry between Enola and Camp Hill escalated. It is generally believed that this small town competition led to the destruction by arson of this wonderful bridge. Shame on the perpetrators!

During the late-‘50’s, the bridge was deemed unsafe for school bus use, so the children had to disembark and walk across the bridge, then re-board their bus. The sides and roofs of covered bridges kept the wooden road surface dry and safe for horse drawn traffic – and school bound children!

Before Memorial Day 2020, the Borough will rehang the sixty High School Class sponsored, historical sites banners along Market Street, The Great Road westward from Lancaster.

During these winter months, the banners are housed, through That’s why it makess the generosity of sense to make yourr Spike Hensel, with Coldwell Banker Realty own pre-arrangemeents. in Camp Hill.

TOYS FOR TOTS PARADE AND HOLIDAY TREE LIGHTING THANK YOU’S

In December, Camp Hill Borough and Centric Bank joined forces to host the Toys for Tots Parade and Holiday Tree Lighting. This was the ninth year that we combined the Toys for Tots Parade and The Annual Tree Lighting. We had a wonderful turn out for the parade and festivities. The weather was perfect! We had a full house and everyone seemed to have a great time. We were able to have the Quaker City String Band back again, which the community enjoyed. We had support from many businesses, clubs and students in the community. Children enjoyed visiting with Santa and parents enjoyed taking photos at our photo booth in the community room following the tree lighting. This program could not have been a success without the continued support of donations from various businesses and organizations especially Centric Bank. We would like to thank US Marine Corps, Petty Officer Anthony Rivera and his fellow Marines, ABF UPack Moving for their contributions. We would also like to thank Country Acres Cider & Tiogo Farms, Karns, BJ’s, L.B.Smith, Camp Hill Woman’s, Camp Hill Lion’s Club and the Junior Civic Clubs for their contributions towards the refreshments in Prosser Hall following the Tree

Lighting. A special thanks to Camp Hill Cheer Ensemble, Blooms by Vickrey, Classic Drycleaners, Camp Hill Fire Company, Camp Hill Fire Police and Police Dept., Camp Hill Key Club, Borough Council and Recreation Commission for their continued support towards community events. We had an awesome turnout and collected a lot of toys.

Thanks to all your help there were many children in Central PA that received toys.

HOLIDAY HOME DECORATING CONTEST

A few of us drove around the whole borough, over a period of nights and picked the top three homes on December 12th.

The winners were surprised when we knocked on their door that night. Prizes were donated by Blooms by Vickrey.

Congratulations Winners!

POOL PASS 2020 TO PURCHASE A POOL MEMBERSHIP Camp Hill Borough offers pool memberships through the Active Network program.

There is no longer a paper application.

To purchase a pool membership, visit camphillborough.com. There are two options to proceed. Under the “I Want To” section (at the bottom of the screen), click “Purchase a pool membership”. Or, select the Recreation Department and click the large green button in the right-hand corner labeled “Register for Activities”. Both steps will bring you to the same screen. If you have an Active Network account established, click the blue “Sign In” button.

Otherwise, click “Create an Account” under the blue button. Do not create a new account if you have registered for other Borough-sponsored recreational activities in the past; in that case, you already have an established Active Network account.

Simply access your existing account and purchase your membership.

When creating an account, please completely spell out your address. Add all household members five years of age and older to the account. If you have a nanny, this person must be added to the account using the following guidelines. Use the word “Nanny” for the first name and your last name for the last name. For example, the nanny for the Smith family would be Nanny Smith. For the nanny’s address, use your address. For the nanny’s date of birth, choose a date that keeps the age under twenty-three years (23) old, for example 1/1/2000. These guidelines are necessary so you are not overcharged for your membership. If you need clarification, please call the Borough Office.

Once your account is established, you may proceed and purchase the pool membership that best suits your household.

Active Network only accepts credit or debit card payments. For those who wish to pay by cash or check, you must still visit the Borough Office; Borough staff will assist you in completing your transaction. For those interested in purchasing the grandparent membership (5-visit swipe card), make sure your Active Network account is established before visiting the Borough Office to complete your transaction. Borough Staff will not do this for you.

Once your membership is purchased, you may go to the pool. When your pool mem-

bership cards are created (usually within 1 or 2 days), ask for them at the pool front desk.

Each person, with the exception of a nanny, will have their photograph taken at the pool front desk. Returning members will use their cards issued from previous years.

Our Children, Our Community, Our Future

News to Roar About!

Camp Hill is such a special place. While we may not be the wealthiest community, I think we are definitely one of the most generous. In 2019, our donors made it possible to give out more than $231,700 in grants, supporting our students and funding items not funded by taxpayer dollars.

Our students are very appreciative and thankful for your generosity and I see this every time I go in the classrooms or on the playing fields. Whatever amount you have given, it has an impact!

If you want to see more, like us on Facebook or follow us on twitter.

Pennian Bank Donates $15,000

CAMP HILL SCHOOL DISTRICT Educational Excellence

Student Success

A MESSAGE FROM SUPERINTENDENT PATRICIA S. CRAIG

Dear Community Members,

The Pennsylvania Department of Education (PDE) requires all PA Districts to submit a Comprehensive Plan ever y 3 years. The Comprehensive Planning process is designed to help schools develop shared goals and a shared vision through communication and collaboration. It is grounded in the theor y of continuous improvement to ensure that all students are achieving at high levels. Innovative, exemplar y, and research-based programs, coupled with staff development, focused and aligned resources, and public participation in planning, are critical factors in districts that demonstrate continuous growth. The implementation cycle for our current plan is July 1, 2018 to June 30, 2021. If you are interested in reviewing the current plan, it can be accessed by following the Our District tab located on the home page of our District website.

The Camp Hill School District will embark on the next 3-year cycle of the Comprehensive Planning process in Februar y of 2020, for submission to PDE in November 2020. Input from our stakeholders is always ver y important to us and is essential in the Comprehensive Planning process. To that end, we have formed a Comprehensive Planning Steering Committee comprised of 28 members including teachers, building and central office administrators, support staff, parents, community members, School Board Directors and students.

To inform the Comprehensive Planning process, we are partnering with BrightBytes, an educational research organization, to collect data regarding our District’s climate and culture. We have asked parents, students and staff to take part in the Whole Child sur vey, which is aligned to the ED School Climate Sur veys developed by the U.S. Department of Education National Center for Education Statistics. Participation in the sur vey is essential to help us form a more complete picture of the safety, discipline, physical and learning environments in our buildings. The data from the sur vey will be analyzed for strengths and concerns by the Steering Committee. The draft plan will be shared with all stakeholders via the District website during the 28-day public review period in the fall, prior to Board approval. The final plan will be posted once it has been approved by PDE. On behalf of the entire District, we thank you for your continued support, for partnering with us to empower our students to achieve their full potential, and for helping us to make ever y day a great day to have Lion PRIDE!
