IMProvIng SAFETY AnD QUALITY oF LIFE In oUr SMALL ToWn The Cumberland Boulevard Improvement Task Force was recently formed by a group of Camp Hill citizens who are committed to working together to identify and implement traffic calming devices in an effort to increase pedestrian and bicycle safety specifically with respect to the Cumberland Boulevard (a.k.a. Route 15 Camp Hill Bypass). The task force is made up of parents, pet walkers, bicyclists, exercise enthusiasts and concerned residents who are committed to preserving safe pedestrian mobility throughout the borough. There is a common concern shared about the increasing congestion and speeds at which motorists are commuting through Camp Hill. One resident said that she got involved because her schoolaged children use the paths and sidewalks daily to get to and from school and to connect with their friends in other neighborhoods. Sherry Bowman, one of the group coordinators, said, “Until we started meeting, I never realized how much of a negative impact the Cumberland Blvd has on my daily life–it is a major safety hazard navigat-
ing that roadway on a daily basis. This task force is a way for our community to raise concerns and recommendations for improving the roadway.” The first mission of the group was to identify and list concerns. The list of concerns and ideas quickly became very long and needed to be prioritized based on importance and feasibility. Changes to the Cumberland Blvd. impacts local and state agencies as well as commuters and businesses to the north and south. After evaluating the large list and creating a community survey (to be available soon), the group chose three initial projects that seemed manageable in scope and also had immediate buy-in from the Borough Police Department. #1 – Increase enforcement of the 35 mph speed limit #2 – Improve the sidewalk running from Siebert Park tunnel to Eisenhower school #3 – Implement “traffic calming” elements to reduce commuter speeds on the roadway Thank you to the Borough Police Department who have already begun to address #1 with an increased presence of enforcing the 35mph speed limit. We will be presenting #2 to Borough officials for review. Item 3#, Traffic Calming elements such as increased signage, planters, lighting, etc. will be discussed at our next meeting.

MAYOR/ FIRE CHIEF
Camp Hill Borough is very fortunate to have many terrific high school students that contribute to making the Borough a better place for all of us. One such student is Camp Hill High School senior Patrick Dorsey. Patrick is a Boy Scout with Troop 196 and he is in pursuit of his Eagle Scout rank. In order to obtain this rank Patrick must complete an Eagle Scout project. He came up with the idea to construct an outdoor seating area along the sidewalk in front of the firehouse. Patrick had to go before Borough Council to present his idea and to obtain approval. His presentation was great and approval was granted. The project was completed in April for all to enjoy! Thank you Patrick for your contribution to

EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT TASK FORCE
SEVERE WEATHER SAFETY TIPS
Helping to save lives one tip at a time Fact: Hundreds of people die each year in the United States due to heat waves, hurricanes, lightning, flash floods, powerful thunderstorm winds, and winter storms or winter cold. Additionally, thousands of people are injured by these weather events each year. Fact: If you are aware of what weather event is about to impact your area, you are more likely to survive such an event. To stay on top of the weather, utilize NOAA Weather Radio All Hazards receiver units that can be purchased at most electronic stores. Make sure the model you purchase has a batterybackup. The programmable types allow you to selectively screen out those county warnings you are not interested in. Most homes have a smoke detector; shouldn’t your home also have a weather radio? You should also obtain the latest weather information from commercial TV/radio, cable TV, the internet/web and newspapers.

LION’S CLUB UPDATE
Once again the annual pancake breakfast was a success. Even though it is a lot of hard work for a few people, it is our pleasure to do the projects of the pancakes and Christmas trees. And it results in money to be spent in and about the community and for persons in need. There are many distributions throughout the community that you can always read on the back of your pancake tickets. Unfortunately this winter our trailer was destroyed. We will try hard to get another trailer so that we can once again have our Christmas tree sales. The motto of the Lions Club is "We serve" and we will continue to serve as best we can. Anyone interested in joining the Camp Hill Lions Club please reach out to Jo Bailey 761-8129 or stop by their booth at the Memorial Day Festivities.
will now provide green space for use by the general public. There are a few more actions steps before the demolition contract is complete. This includes planting grass seed and remove some of the old broken asphalt and concrete that is in the facility. The area fencing will stay up into the summer, so the grass has time to mature. During the Spring of 2017, the Borough Parks and Recreation Committee held a Town Hall meeting hoping to gather information from the public on the best way the Borough of Camp Hill can utilize this now vacant space. Many residents attended and provided insightful feedback that will be used to develop a plan to construct a new park at the facility. The ideas ranged from the creation of a recreation building to doing nothing with current site. While there are many steps ahead, the Borough is taking an active approach to this site development and wants to provide new passive and active recreational amenities to Borough tax payers. Stay tuned for further development as Borough Council and staff work to develop this site into something the whole community can enjoy.

I’ve heard all sorts of stories as to why our corner of Cumberland County, which spun off from East Pennsboro Township, is called Camp Hill. There had been a private boarding school called the White Hall Academy on Market Street, east of North 22nd Street. This school closed during the Civil War, and the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania reopened it as one of the state’s 37 Soldiers’ Orphans’ Schools in 1864. So, some folks called the area White Hall. And some, White Hill, after Robert Whitehill, one of the five people who purchased 200 acre plots from the Penn family c. 1770. (Read his historical marker in front of 1903 Market Street – Myers-Harner Funeral Home.) The United States Post Office chose “Camp Hill” when we were given our own postal delivery area. Yes, there was a “camp” area just north of today’s Church of God on North 21st Street – a wooded place where religious camps with itinerant and local preachers met. The Camp on the Hill. C.H. for short. Now, do you see that fine print? “Founded 1756”. Once Upon a Time (in the 1950’s) I first noticed that fine print as I rode past on my bicycle, and was quite excited, because I would be graduating from CHHS in 1956. I figured it would be a

Bicentennial Year and there would be much excitement. 1956 came and went. No excitement. Then, after I’d married and moved away (and was in Italy) Robert Crist’s History of Camp Hill was printed in 1885 – the real Bicentennial Year! And I missed all the excitement. But I’ve been reading the Crist book, among others, ever since. In 1733, this area, Louther Manor, was set aside by the Penn Family, for the Indians (who had moved away years earlier). Tobias Hendricks, Sr. established a home along Cedar Run, in the area that is now a park at the foot of Lower Allen’s Borough Offices. Hendricks’ job was to keep European settlers moving through the area. Four years later, more people and stock were moving along The Great Road (Market Street) than on Simpson Ferry Road, so his adult son established a Tavern along the stream in what we call Willow Park. Tobias, Jr. ran the first Tavern in what became Cumberland County. About 1769, the Penns bought Louther Manor back from the absent Indians, then sold twenty-some lots to settlers – five of the lots are within Camp Hill’s borders. In 1799, after Tobias Hendricks, Jr.’s death, the property was sold to John Bowman, who replaced the log structure with the handsome limestone structure we know as 2324 Market Street. Bowman operated his Tavern until 1837.

Our Children, Our Community, Our Future
News to Roar About!
“It takes a village to raise a child.” That phrase couldn’t ring more true in our small town of Camp Hill, Pennsylvania. In that spirit, our community is very fortunate to have 25 committed volunteer Lion Foundation Board members who put in hundreds of hours to support our schools and fund programs that are no longer covered by tax payer dollars. Specifically, I would like to thank outgoing board members Bob Little, Alison Godwin, Jeff Hass, Barb Sexton and Sarah Battisti for the time they have dedicated to supporting “our children, our community and our future.” It has been a privilege to work with all of them. I also want to welcome the following new members: Jen Chaplin, Jennifer Hoover, Jaime Novinger, Lisa Reeves and Senator Mike Regan. Like the rest of The Lion Foundation’s board, each brings unique experiences and talents that are sure to make our village stronger, safer and as special as ever! Thanks to each of them and to YOU, for your continued support. See you around town.
Robin Robin Jones, Executive Director Jeff Haas, Alison Goodwin, Barb Sexton and Bob Little

AROUND TOWN FINE ARTS FLOURISH IN CAMP HILL Each year, The Lion Foundation dedicates more than $250,000 to running day-to-day activities for the Pollock Performing Arts Center (PAC) thanks to an endowment established by Mrs. Grace Pollock. Make sure to take time to check out the current art exhibit featuring masterpieces created by students spanning from kindergarten to high school seniors, the upcoming middle school production of Spamalot, and the many classes and other programs offered each day after school hours. Learn more at www.gmppac.org.
FIFTH GRADE GOES TO BIZTOWN For the past ten years, your donations to The Lion Foundation have made it possible to fund the Junior Achievement Biztown program for Eisenhower Elementary’s 5th grade students. This hands-on learning experience provides students with a taste of the “real world” as they assume roles like company executive, newspaper reporter, elected official, bank teller, scientist and builder to run an 8,000-squuare foot simulated town for a day. Join us on our Cat Chat at www.thelion foundation.org with one of our 5th grade teachers, Tammy DeSanto, to learn more about this very popular and memorable school event. Congratulations to this year’s Biztown Mayor, Danny Pinzon, and District Attorney Jimmy Quinlan!
STUDENTS WHO ARE INVOLVED DO BETTER IN SCHOOL Studies show that students that are involved in extra-curricular activities do better in school and are less likely to engage in drug and alcohol related activities. Thanks to generous donations from our Camp Hill community, The Lion Foundation can support clubs that provide students with many opportunities to pursue special interests, learn new things and be part of something bigger than themselves.

Plan Ahead With The Lion Foundation Many people choose to include a charity like The Lion Foundation in their will, trust or another gift plan both for tax benefits and also to support a cause that is close to the heart. Different gifts may benefit you in different ways: • Naming The Lion Foundation in your Will can help reduce estate taxes and ensure the lifesaving work you care about will continue. • Naming The Lion Foundation as beneficiary on appreciated securities, retirement plans, insurance policies or real estate can advance the charity’s mission sooner as part of a gift that avoids probate. • Making a gift to The Lion Foundation that provides generates dividends during your lifetime can help reduce current income taxes and possibly reduce or eliminate estate tax and probate expenses. Contact an attorney or tax professional, along with The Lion Foundation, to determine the perfect plan that meets your financial needs and fulfills your charitable interests.

NEWS AROUND THE DISTRICT • STEM Summit held for all 9th and 10th graders – Junior Achievement of South Central Pennsylvania hosted a STEM Summit at Camp Hill High School in February. STEM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math. The goal of the STEM Summit is to inspire students to pursue an academic STEM focus in the remainder of their high school courses and to help prepare them for a possible STEM job in the future. According to the U.S. Bureau of Statistics, in the next five years, STEM jobs are projected to grow twice as quickly as jobs in other fields. • “Cool Schools” Highlights Hoover Elementary School on the News! Steve Knight, a meteorologist from CBS 21 News, visited Hoover Elementary School to interview some students on why our school is cool! Check out the segment on the District's website. • Kindergarten Registration for 20172018 was on April 26th!
