Mahoning Valley Ulster Project connects American and Irish students

By JESSICA HARKER jharker@vindy.com

The Mahoning Valley Ulster Project connects local teenagers with students from Northern Ireland.

Greg Hartz, who helps organize the project, said that the goal of the group is to break down stereotypes about religion.

“We want to show everyone that we are all more alike than we are different,” Hartz said.

Students from Ireland come to the United States for a month, staying with American families.

This year, 10 students visited from Ireland, five boys and five girls.

Hartz said that the groups tries to select half Catholic and half Protestant students to help break the religious barriers.

“It’s not as bad as it once was,” said Irish student Dan Gilmore who participated in the program this year. “But there is definitely an undercurrent of tension.”

During the month, Ulster Project students spend their days participating in a number of service projects.

Students visited the Inn and

Poland Way, volunteered at soup kitchens, spent time at the Purple Cat along with a number of other projects.

“They develop leadership skills,” Hartz said. “I think it helps everyone to be able to go forward and continue to do the right thing.”

Along with service work students spend time together going camping and making day trips with their host families.

“For a lot of these students it is the first time they are away from home,” Hartz said. “We See ULSTER, Page 5

Canfield library hosts silly science show

By JESSICA HARKER jharker@vindy.com

The Canfield library hosted the Hillbilly Silly Science show on July 12.

Performer Dr. Cletus Beaker MD and his assistant Junior put on a show demonstrating a number of the science projects for the upcoming science fair.

“Now a-days, kids tend to zone into their video games and electronics,” Beaker said. “This is a way to get them interested in science.”

During the show, Bea ker brought up a number of volunteers from the audience to assist in the show.

He performed a number of experiments, including using a home made wind vortex cannon, and a spinning disc to create an optical illusion.

After each experiment Beaker would explain the science behind the project.

He taught children about tunnel vision, chemical combination and other scientific con-

cepts.

“It’s all hands on science, it’s a way to get children involved and get their hands dirty,” Beaker said.

The show is based out of Wisconsin and travels across the United States.

Beaker said the group is available for birthday parties, library events and many more.

For more information on the show, you can find the group on Facebook at Hillbilly Silly Science Show.

Mill Creek Park hosts dragonfly hunt

By JESSICA HARKER jharker@vindy.com

The Mill Creek Metro Park hosted a Dragonfly Hunt event out of the Ford Nature Center the first week of July.

Children were able to walk through the center, locating the 20 photos of the insect hidden within the complex.

Along with the photos were facts about them, with the goal of being both fun and educational.

If children were able to locate all 20 pictures they were able to get a small prize, including pencils or pieces of candy.

After the hunt, the park encouraged families to take a hike outside, searching for real dragonflies.

The Ford Nature Center will host the next scavenger hunt starting on Aug. 6, posting photos of butNeighbors | Jessica Harker terflies throughout the complex.

Ursuline Education and Wellness Center announces guided labyrinth walks The Ursuline Education and Wellness Center, located at 4280 Shields Road, recently began its 2019 Guided Labyrinth Walk season. This year’s themes celebrate aspects of compassion, a virtue central to the ministry of St. Angela Merici, who founded the Ursuline order in 1535.

All persons of faith are invited to participate in these free, weather-permitting events. Walks generally take 20-30 minutes. The themes by date are Aug. 15 at 6:30 p.m. - “How should we speak to one another;” Sept. 12 at 6:30 p.m. - “Knowledge, recognition and action” and Oct. 13 at 2 p.m. - “Love your enemies.” A presentation on the history of labyrinths precedes this walk. The labyrinth is open year-round from dawn to dusk for all persons of faith. There is no cost to use the labyrinth, which is accessible for different physical abilities and offers ample parking. Printed guides are provided at the labyrinth’s entrance giving suggestions for following the path, but there is no right or wrong way to experience the sacred walk. For more information, call the Ursuline Education and Wellness Center at 330799-4941 or visit theursulinecenter. org.

Canfield library hosts craft night

By ABBY SLANKER aslanker@neighbors.com

The Canfield library invited adults and teens to create their own rainbow wall hanging on June 24. With the help of Adult Librarian Assistant Taylor Swan, participants created a stylish art piece for their home.

Swan precut several red, blue, green, yellow and orange pieces of yarn for the wall hangings, but said participants were free to create their wall hanging any way they liked.

“I did precut pieces of yarn in the usual rainbow colors, but participants are welcome to cut any color and any amount of pieces they would like to create their wall hanging. The can put their own spin and own touch on it and do whatever they like.

We have a lot of creative people here,” Swan said.

Swan said she tries to mix up the craft programs each month.

“I t r y to m i x it up each month. This month I wanted to do something colorful that said spring into summer. Last month, we did tassel bookmarks and in July, we are going to hand embroider electronic pouches for phones or tablets.

Neighbors | Abby Slanker It’s a fun time and I am excited for the rest of the programs this Adult Librarian Assistant Taylor Swan helped adults and teens create rainbow wall hangings for their homes on June 24. summer,” Swan said.
