RANSOM TWP. - At the beginning of the Ransom Township Supervisors meeting May 6, under public comment, attendees discussed the recent decision of the supervisors to move the public comment section of the agenda from the end of each meeting to the beginning. Resident Bill Auriemma said he feels it should be at the end where it used to be, because it’s difficult to comment on something that has not yet been discussed. Supervisor Dennis Macheska said the intention is for attendees to read the items on the agenda before the meeting begins in order to find out what is planned for discussion. Then they will be able to ask questions and make comments when it’s time for public comment. Auriemma replied, “It’s a lot easier to talk about it than to read about it.” Macheska pointed out they had discussed this at the previous meeting and even asked for a show of hands among residents to see how many preferred public comment at the beginning as opposed to the end. More people preferred the beginning. Township Solicitor Edmund Scacchitti explained the idea was his, and the reasoning behind it was that people do not tend to show up to Wednesday work sessions, where issues are discussed the most. He said at the last work session the board drafted a peddling and soliciting ordinance, which was advertised, but no residents were in attendance. In order for the supervisors to listen to the opinions and answer the questions of residents regarding the ordinance before

Piggy banks and 529s Scranton family shares tips on saving for college BY ELIZABETH BAUMEISTER lbaumeister@theabingtonjournal.com
Jason and Melisa Berkowitz, of Scranton, understand the importance of saving money for college early. Although both attended college at The University of Scranton (with Melisa obtaining a bachelor’s degree from College Misericordia and a master’s degree from

the University), neither had the advantage of a college savings plan growing up. “At the time when I was going to school, it was mostly student loans, and I had a few small scholarships,” Melisa Berkowitz said, adding her parents paid some money out of pocket. “So that’s one of the reasons I’m starting to save now, because then it won’t be as much of a burden later when my kids are old enough.” Their sons, Jason, 7 and Jacob, 2, both have a “529,” a tax-advantaged account which remains tax free when the holder withdraws funds for qualifying college tuition and expenses. The family is also a five-plus-year member of Upromise, a free program offered by Sallie Mae (an organization that assists families in saving, planing and paying for college) which adds to college savings by earning cash back from purchases made from hundreds of participating companies. “I just think it’s a great program,” Berkowitz said of Upromise. “It’s free, and it’s extra money that’s there, and I don’t know why people wouldn’t just take advantage of it to get that for their kids.” She pointed out every little bit of extra savings helps bring her and her husband closer to their goal for their children to be able to attend college without having to worry as much about the money. Although most parents share this same goal or similar desires for their own children, a recent study by Sallie Mae, titled “How America Saves For College 2013,” reports that just half of families are saving for college, and only a third have a strategic plan to do so. The report states in its overview that the data collect-

SCRANTON - Former Ransom Township Secretary-Treasurer Kathleen Zielinski, 61, of South Abignton Township, was sentenced to 9 to 23 months in prison, with three-years of probation to follow, at a hearing May 13 at the Lackawanna County Courthouse in Scranton. Zielinski pleaded guilty Dec. 3 to a seconddegree felony count of theft by unlawful taking of township funds. The crime was uncovered during a yearly audit, which revealed 46 of Zielinski’s residential electric bills, in the amount of $8,909.58, had been paid with township funds. An investigative audit, conducted by Marx Accounting and Forensic Services for the period Jan. 1, 2007 through March 17, 2012, then discovered Zielinski spent $99,228.24 of Ransom Township funds for personal expenses. In addition to the 9 to 23 month sentence, Judge Michael Barrasse ordered Zielinski to make full financial restitution to the township in the amount requested by the commonwealth, $106,739. This amount includes the funds stolen according to the investigative audit, in addition to the expenses incurred by the investigation. Zielinski, however, is disputing the amount, claiming it should be $76,000. A restitution hearing will be scheduled for a later date. Prior to the ruling, Ransom Township Supervisor David Bird addressed the judge in regard to the impact of the theft on the township. He said the ordeal set back the road repairs for the year, as the board is not sure where it stands financially. It also broke the trust between the township officials and residents, leaving them with a lot of questions to answer. “It put a lot on us and on our residents,” Bird said. Zielinski’s attorney Frank Bolock spoke on her behalf, pointing out that at 61 years of age this is her first offense. He said she has a great record of community service, has volunteered with the Chinchilla Fire Department and has friends of many years who wrote positive statements about her in letters. He said these things “stand in contrast with the theft of the township money,” and Zielinski acknowledges and is “extremely remorseful, to say the least,” for her actions which broke the trust of

Relay builds community
Comm schedules annual meeting The Board of Trustees of the Waverly Community House invites the public to attend its Annual Meeting May 21, at 6 p.m. in the Comm Auditorium, followed at 6:30 p.m. by a lite Italian dinner buffet. The community is vital to the success and survival of this unique facility, according to Executive Director Maria Wilson, and the Annual Meeting is an opportunity for residents and supporters to learn more about Comm activities and services and to review the Comm finances. Attendees will also have the opportunity to meet the members of the Board of Trustees, including three who are new to the Board this year. Also on the agenda is the new slate of officers and announcement of this year’s Volunteer of the Year award which will be presented by last year’s recipient, Rachel Gilbert. The Volunteer of the Year award is given to an individual or group of individuals recognized for extraordinary service and commitment to the Comm. For more than 90 years, the Waverly Community House has served the Abington area through its mission to enhance the lives of individuals and families in the region by fostering educational, recreational and cultural opportunities. Each week hundreds attend the Comm for enrichment of their daily lives: From concerts to play activities, exercise to support groups, artisans to scouts. In addition to its historic significance as a regional landmark, the Comm is a place where people can spend quiet time in a peaceful setting or play a game of tennis or watch their children play on a state-of-the-art playground, or take out the latest bestseller in the memorial library- all at no cost, said Wilson. Preserving and maintaining this area treasure depends upon the support of individual and business donations to the Annual Sustaining Fund, she added. To make a gift to the 2013 Annual Sustaining Fund, visit www. waverlycomm.org or call the Comm office: 570-5868191, extension 3.

According to the American Cancer Society, an average of 1,409 people in Lackawanna County develop cancer every year. The volunteers at Relay for Life of Abington are working to change that number. Relay for Life of Abington began in 2000 when the American Cancer Society approached Our Lady of the Snows Parish to act as a headquarters for a community relay, Steve Wallo, the youth and young adult minister at Our Lady of the Snows, said. Relay For Life of Abington, a 16-hour event, is held from June 8 through 9. Wallo said the event helps bring the community together. “Cancer doesn’t discriminate,” Wallo, Lehman, said. He added, “The fight back brings everyone together.” “Cancer touches all of us,” Cindy Delaney, an income development representative at the American Cancer Society, said. The results of local volunteer efforts have a direct impact on the American Cancer Society’s work in Lackawanna County. According to the American Cancer Society, “Last year, 871 local patients and their families found help from the Society, including 84 underserved cancer patients.” The local office of the American Cancer Society helps patients in their fight against cancer through various programs, such as providing patients and their families with information about treatment or driving patients to appointments and treatment sessions. “Without events like Relay and Strides, we can’t have these programs accessible to people,” Delaney said. She added that without the help of the community and fundraising events, people might not receive needed assistance from the American Cancer Society. Besides helping area cancer patients, Delaney said events such as Relay for Life are effective community builders. “There’s a lot of outside camaraderie,” Delaney said. She said the community effort in the Abingtons is “amazing.” Delaney added that community members, students and local businesses “all come together to help win the fight.” This year, the volunteers for Relay for Life of Abington are hoping to exceed last year’s Relay total and raise $40,000, Wallo said. He added that if that goal is met, Relay for Life of Abington will have raised over one million dollars for the American Cancer Society. But volunteers have goals that extend beyond fundraising. Wallo said event volunteers have a goal of 45 teams signed up to participate. As of press time, there are 37 teams signed up, according to the Relay for Life website. Although many of the teams are composed of local students, Wallo

said the number of adult teams has been growing. He added that Relay is a “community-wide event.” Several of the volunteers for Relay for Life of Abington are involved because of a personal connection to cancer. T.J. Murray, a senior at Abington Heights High School, is the chair of the Activities Committee for Relay for Life, a position he also held last year. Murray’s grandfather died of cancer and he said he “wanted to do something to help.” One of Murray’s classmates was involved with Relay and encouraged Murray to sign up. During Relay weekend, Murray said he organizes everything from “set-up to cleanup.” Murray is also in charge of coordinating activities to keep participants engaged during the 16 hours of Relay weekend. The Clarks Summit resident said his favorite part is the luminaria ceremony. Luminarias are paper bags filled with sand and a candle. People have the opportunity to buy a luminaria with the name of someone who has fought cancer or died from cancer. Murray said it is “really moving” to see people come together on an “equal playing field” in remembrance of people who have lost their battle with cancer as well as those who have beaten the disease. At Relay for Life of the Abingtons, some of the luminarias are arranged to spell out the word “hope.” During the luminaria ceremony, a list of names of both survivors and those who have died from cancer is read aloud. Murray said the moment after the reading of the names when Relay participants see the word “hope” spelled out is “the most important part” of the weekend. Wallo has several reasons for his involvement in Relay for Life. He said his father had skin cancer, so Relay is “very personal to me.” But Wallo said he also stays involved because he likes to help the area youth with their involvement. Wallo said his work for Relay mostly happens behind the scenes. In the weeks leading up to Relay weekend, Wallo helps coordinate the student chairs and the 14 different committees. On Relay weekend, he spends his time “filling in” wherever another hand is needed. “Over the years, my job has gotten easier,” Wallo said. Like Murray, Wallo’s favorite part of the weekend is also the luminaria ceremony. He said the ceremony “really brings to light why we do what we do.”

Construction unites congregation By AliAh RosemAn Abington Journal Correspondent
CLARKS SUMMIT – Four small United Methodists churches merged into one large congregation. Countryside Community Church at 14011 Orchard Drive is comprised of the former Milkwaukee, Newtown, Ransom and Schultzille churches. The construction for the 10,000-square-foot building took about four years to complete. “When we were the four
separate churches we were really having a tough time. There were some congregations that only had 20 people on a regular Sunday. It was difficult because we didn’t have children’s programs, we had nothing to offer young families, we had nothing to offer teenagers,” said Karen D. Rickaby, executive assistant/treasurer. After a few issues finding a space large enough for merger, Keith Eckel donated almost 18 acres on which to build a church.
“We were able to merge finances and also people. We now have an active youth group, a Sunday school program. We couldn’t do it separately,” Rickaby said. In the 7,500 square foot main floor and 7,500 square foot basement, Countryside Community Church houses a cafe, two Sunday school rooms, a nursery, a quiet room provided with speakers, a meeting room, a chapel, a choir practice room, youth pastor office and a fellowship hall. The space is
completely handicapped accessible. Hearing devices are also available for the sanctuary. Currently there are 496 members and about 160 regularly arrive for services. The Rev. Jean-Pierre Duncan was welcomed by the merged churches July 1, 2008; previously he served as a Reverend in Wilkes-Barre. “The church is the people, not the building. Four churches had people that were strong hard workers,” Duncan said. A consecration service will

An autumn class with a fall theme using burlap, as well as other possibilities to create a wreath, is also planned. This program was sponsored by the library as part of the PA Forward initiative promoting the value of libraries in the 21st Century.

CLARKS SUMMIT- The need for a united project was discussed at the Abington Council of Governments (ACOG) monthly meeting May 2 at the Clarks Green Borough Building. Herman Johnson of Clarks Summit said, “ACOG doesn’t take up a project and follow through. If we did, other municipalities would join in and support us more.” Johnson mentioned that they hear presentations at the meetings that could lead to possible projects, but lack follow up and financial support from the participating municipalities’ councils. Len Gorney of the South Abington Planning Commission suggested they investigate the policies of Council of Governments use to get ideas and information about projects. “You need to pick something that can be done easily and cheaply… that way you can go back to your communities and the ones that don’t show up and say “look what we did,”he said. Clarks Green Council President Keith Williams suggested they look into alternative energy providers jointly, as was presented at the last meeting by C Group Energy Services, LLC. A few other ideas were discussed for future projects. During the municipal reports Bill Montgomery said Dalton Borough has hired two part -time police officers.
My name is ... Sammy If the ball is hit anywhere near centerfield, there is a very good chance Abington Heights’ senior Josh Slocum will track it down. “He can really go get the ball and covers the gaps very well,” Abington Heights head coach Bill Zalewski said. “We always thought his defense was very good, but now we know when the ball is hit in his direction, he’s gonna get it. He’s really the anchor of our outfield. He helps the corner outfielders out a lot with his range, that’s why we put him in centerfield.” According to Zalewski, the Clarks Summit resident can also always be counted on when the team needs a spark. “He’s a real clutch hitter in key situations,” he said. “ He’s a good, solid baseball player.” Zalewski added that Slocum has taken on an added leadership role as a senior. “He’s one of our team captains this year,” he said. “I noticed him take a lot of the young players, especially the outfielders, under his wing and really push them through the drills and keep them focused. He’s an outstanding leader and a great teammate.” Zalewski’s believes the secret to Slocum’s success is simple: hard work and repetition.

A whole lot happening at Borough Hall BY BEN FREDA Abington Journal Correspondent
FACTORYVILLE - The Factoryville Borough Hall Building used to house meetings for the Factoryville and Clinton Township Joint Municipal Sewer Authority. But nowadays, the building at 161 College Avenue and its surroundings are lively with dance, pumpkin-growing, even archery.
Zumba classes with instructor Jill Wetzel have been running since Jan. 2. People in her classes mix dance with fitness moves, such as squats, lunges, knee-lifts and punches. Using her I-Pad, she plays dance tunes, which consists of 70 percent world music and 30 percent pop. Her music includes many Latin styles such as Salsa, Cha Cha, Merengue and Cumbia.
“I love teaching Zumba,” said Wetzel. “It doesn’t feel like exercising. It feels like dancing. Everyone is so happy because the music makes them happy.” Wetzel earned her Zumba license in May 2012. She teaches ballroom dancing and has for 15 years. She will lead ballroom dancing at the Abington Area Community Classroom and Clarks Green
Girl Scouts who meet at the Factoryville Borough Building, include Daisy Troop 50650, Brownie Troop 50047 and Junior Troop 50072.
United Methodist Church in the spring and fall and teaches at the Clarks Summit Borough Building. “Jill is a great teacher,” said Cathy Rist Strauch, a student of Wetzel’s Zumba classes in Factoryville. “She caters to everyone and whatever level of exercise they’re able to do. It’s fun and you can come anytime. Everyone’s welcome. Wetzel, who is a breast cancer survivor, said cancer never stopped her from dancing or teaching. She aims to live up to the Zumba motto: ‘Ditch the workout. Join the dance party.’ She teaches Zumba classes Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays from 9 to 10 a.m. “Zumba is good from teen to senior,” said Wetzel. “Anyone can do it.” Another happening at Borough Hall: Girl Scout meetings. Daisy Troop 50650, Brownie Troop 50047 and the Junior Troop 50072 meet every other week in the building. They recently finished this

Daisies, led by Mary Wilson, create daisies for their vests that represent the girl scout law and promise. Brownies are led by Kelly Rejrat. The troops, as part of the Abington Service Unit, meet with others at Borough Hall to plans activities, such as swimming, bowling, roller skating and a movie night at the Dietrich Theater. “My scouts are excellent scouts, “said Rejrat. “They listen and learn very well. Their behavior is excellent. If
anyone is interested in learning, this is a great opportunity.” They will plant flowers around Factoryville and its cemetery. They also donated 44 boxes of cookies to the Ronald McDonald House. Soon inside Borough Hall, another group will gather: the 4-H Club, led by Daisy scout leader Wilson. There, members, including the Cloverbuds (5-7), will learn cooking, archery, photography and pumpkin growing. Members ages 8 and up will attend Camp Brule in Sullivan County.
Factoryville, ‘Playful City USA,’ eligible for grants BY KEviN KEARNEY Abington Journal Correspondent
FACTORYVILLE- Factoryville has been recognized as a “Playful City USA” community, by a national program that celebrates and promotes local policies that increase play opportunities for children. As part of the recognition, the borough is eligible for grants ranging from $15,000 to $30,000 in its initiative to keep children active. “It’s very exciting,” Factoryville grant writer Sadie Rozenburg told borough council May 8. She noted the borough was one of only 217 communities to be recognized throughout the country and among eight in Pennsylvania. In celebration of the honor, Factoryville will hold its first “Day of Play” June 8 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Christy Mathewson Park. All are welcome. The borough also is selling “Factoryville Playground Task Force” T-shirts. The cost is $10, with 40 percent of the proceeds going to the playground initiatives. “We’re getting a lot of
orders for them already,” said borough manager Mary Ellen Buckbee. The goal of the task force, whose motto is “Strengthening our community through play,” is to improve the recreational facilities for people of all ages in Factoryville and Clinton Township. “Playful City USA” is run by Washington, D.C.-based KaBOOM!

nonprofit organization. It included Factoryville on its 2013 list due to the efforts the borough is making in improving its recreational facilities. “Communities like Factoryville are creating innovative programs and initiatives and deserve recognition because of their efforts to give kids the childhood they deserve and best prepare them for their future,” KaBOOM! founder and CEO Darell Hammond said in a news release. The borough created the playground task force, whose aim is to install equipment in every park. The ultimate goal is to connect the two main parks, Christy Mathewson Park, behind Lackawanna Trail Elementary Center and the Factoryville/Clinton Township Joint Municipal Park on Creek Road across from the township building. Right now there is no easy way to get from one park to the other, Buckbee said. But the task force is looking into ways in which people could easily navigate between the two parks.

Cindy, who started her college coursework 37 years ago in Grand Rapids, Mich., put her education on hold to focus on raising her children. “When we had our last one six years ago, I decided to take courses and get back in the swing of things,” she said. At the suggestion of her son, she later enrolled in BBC’s Degree Completion program. She took seven courses online over the course of the 2012-13 academic year to finish her bachelor’s degree. Now in her mid-50s, Cindy would like to use her degree to teach or work in a full-time ministry setting. Sharing the stage with her son, she said, is icing on the cake. “It is an awesome moment for me as a mom,” said Cindy, who is the first of her siblings to earn a college degree. The event was the 81st commencement ceremony in Baptist Bible College and Seminary history. Founded in 1932 in Johnson City, N.Y., the current campus in Clarks Summit was obtained in 1968.

Abington Heights football players, from left, Jerry Langan, Zack Sutter, Simon Williams, Ryan Judge, and Michael Fitzpatrick attended the prom May 11 at Fiorelli’s in Peckville.
More than 230 graduates were recognized during morning Commencement exercises at Baptist Bible College and Seminary with President Jim Jeffery urging those earning diplomas to “climb higher in following and serving Jesus Christ.” Diplomas presented May 11 at a filled Phelps Student Center on campus ranged from one-year Bible Certificates to five doctorallevel degrees. Graduates included residents of 27 states and eight other nations — Bermuda, Canada, Ecuador, India, Indonesia, Jamaica, Myanmar and Peru. Commencement also for the first time included Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Science degrees in a range of existing academic programs. Previous state guidelines limited the name of degrees conferred. Among those taking the stage was graduate Jaycee Shirk. The Business Administration major from Batavia, N.Y., said her college education prepared her well for the future. “BBC taught me how to better relate to people, to think biblically, and to carry a business mindset,” said Shirk, who is considering different post-graduation employment offers. See a complete list of graduates and the commencement program at http://www.bbc. edu/commencement/2013-BBCS-commencement-program.pdf. President Jim Jeffery, the featured speaker, encouraged graduates, families and friends in attendance. His address, “Reach the summit,” described the school’s passion for its graduates. The message wrapped together Jeffery’s series on Second Timothy preached in weekly chapels over the course of the academic year. “Like mountain climbers, keeping a grip is essential to ascending the mountain,” he said. “Likewise, we learn from the example of Paul in his final letter written to his student Timothy that we need to keep our spiritual grip on four essentials.” He described the four essentials as keeping a grip on confidence in Christ (2 Tim. 1:12), faithfulness to Christ (2 Tim. 2:2,15), truth from Christ (2 Tim. 3:14-17), and endurance for Christ (2 Tim. 4:7-8). “You are charting the course ahead to the next summits that God has called you to climb,” he said. Among the graduates Saturday were Cindy Lutz, a mother of 12 and grandmother of seven from Flushing, Mich., who was joined on stage by one of her sons, Brett. Her daughter-in-law, Kathryn (Winkler) Lutz, also earned a degree but could not attend the exercises.

Study Commission sets Revenue is focus of C.S. Council race out change government By eLiZaBeTH BaUMeiSTer
lbaumeister@theabingtonjournal.com
By Kevin Kearney Abington Journal Correspondent
Clarks Green Council member Marnie O’Dea Palmer said she is running for a seat on the Lackawanna County Government Study Commission because she is tired of the “corruption that has marred county government.” The Dalton native is “appalled” by the way county government has operated. “They can talk about transparency all they want, O’Dea Palmer but the fact is that there’s no transparency,” she said. In the May 21 primary election voters will have a chance to answer if they want a commission to study the form of government and, in separate questions, whether to eliminate election of four row offices - sheriff, recorder of deeds, register of wills and clerk of judicial records. Palmer said the current system of three county commissioners is not an effective form of government. “I don’t think what we have now works,” she said. The candidate added, “We believe a seven-member council with an elected administrator is the way to go for Lackawanna County.” She noted that Allegheny County in western Pennsylvania operates by that system and has been “very successful.” Palmer became interested in government after her experience as the executive director of the Downtown Scranton Business Association (DSBA) in the early 1990s. She said that as the DSBA director, and later as the executive director of Habitat of Humanity of Lackawanna County, she learned to use innovative methods, in-kind donations, volunteer labor and creative financing to achieve goals. Palmer is in her 15th year with Clarks Green Borough Council. She is involved with the Abington Area Joint Recreation Board, the Abington Council of Governments, and is slated to become president of the Pennsylvania Association of Councils of Governments in 2015. She also has worked as a manager in the Lackawanna County Office of Environmental Sustainability. Waverly resident Frank J. Bolock Jr. and study commission candidate, said he is committed to considering all potential forms of government in Lackawanna County and then participating in developing a recommendation that would best suit taxpayers. The lifelong Lackawanna County resident said his main goal in running for the county study commission is to determine what the best and most efficient way the government can be run. Bolock has a degree in political science from The University of Scranton and has been an attorney in Lackawanna County for 34 years, concentrating in municipal and governmental law. Bolock said that while some candidates have already made up their minds, he’s determined to wait until the study is completed before making a decision. “I will work objectively and independently to come to a decision for a recommendation. The final decision will be made by the electorate,” he said. Charlie Spano was elected to the Scranton Study Commission in 2001. He was vice-chair of the Scranton Planning Commission and is an Alternate Zoning Board Member. “I’m a candidate with elected government study comSpano mission experience and the
lessons learned there will be valuable on the county study commission,” he said. “There is a great need for reform that must be carefully thought out and explained thoroughly to the voters.” Spano graduated from West Scranton High School, received a degree in Elementary Education from Wilkes University and a Master’s in Administration from The University of Scranton. His parents were Charlie and Olga Sabbatini Spano. A retired elementary teacher, Spano has been active in many community organizations. He was president of the Scranton Chapter of UNICO, South Scranton Lions Club, Phi Delta Kappa, Columbus Day Association and the Board of the Anthracite Heritage Museum and Iron Furnaces Association. He was a Director of the Lackawanna River Corridor Association for a decade. He formed the 911 Memorial Committee of Lackawanna County that annually remembers the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. He was the Assistant Manager for Recruiting in NEPA for the U.S. Census from 2008 to 2010 and was Deputy Director of Voter Education for Lackawanna County from 2006-2008. He is married to Mary Rose McAndrew Spano and together they have four adult children and twin granddaughters. Mary Rose McAndrew Spano grew up in Throop. She was the Valedictorian of her class at the former Throop High School, now consolidated into the Mid Valley School District. Her parents are the late Gerald and Rose Nealon McAndrew, both teachers. McAndrew Mcandrew Spano gradu- Spano ated from Marywood with a degree in elementary education and pursued some post graduate credits. As her children grew, she worked as a substitute elementary teacher in the Scranton School District. Joining the staff of SLHDA, McAndrew Spano was eventually a case worker for a program that assisted low income people with their heating bill payments. “I am running for the Study commission with an open mind,” she said. “I agree changes must be made, but my experience with the intricacies of governmental programs means we should think deeply, act thoroughly and decide carefully.” From 1999 to 2001, she attended every meeting of the Scranton Home Rule Commission which performed the same functions envisioned for the Lackawanna County Government Study Commission. Candidates running include: Joseph Albert, Scranton Frank J. Bolock Jr., Waverly Joseph J. Brazil, Scranton Robert Calpin, Moosic Gerrie Carey, Clarks Summit Paul J. Catalano, Scranton Michael A. Catanzaro, Childs J. Gaynor Cawley, Scranton Alexander J. Chelik, Mayfield Laureen A. Cummings, Old Forge Michael A. Dempsey, Dunmore Gary T. Duncan, Dunmore Sharon L. Gebert, Carbondale Michael A.

The three republican candidates running for one two-year unexpired term on Clarks Summit Council agree on at least one point: The borough needs to generate additional income. Dominic Scott, who was unanimously appointed June 26, 2012 to fill the seat after the resignation of former councilman Donald Moyer, is up against previous council member Robert Bennett, who resigned in 2009 to accept a job with the U.S. Census Bureau and M. Vincent Cruciani, a land representative at Williams and owner of Washington Healthcare Billing, LLC. Scott, a Clarks Summit resident since age 8, graduated from Clarks Summit High School. He’s a Korean War veteran and a member of several community organizations, such as the VFW Post 7069, Our Lady of the Snows Church, Knights of Columbus, Catholic Social Services, Friends of the Abington Community Library, Rotary Club of the Abingtons. He serves as Council Chairman of the Civil Service, Finance and a member of the Personnel and Union Negotiation Committee, and believes the most important issue facing the borough is its limited finances. “The Finance Committee builds a budget and all items are discussed,” he said. “Each expenditure is reviewed. We are constantly looking for additional sources of revenue.” Scott, a University of Scranton graduate, added he donates his council pay back to the community. Bennett is a Vietnam War veteran and a member of community organizations including Odyssey of the Mind, Knights of Columbus and VFW Post
Bennett
Carey
7069. He agreed on the importance of taking care of borough finances, and said the way to do so is not by cutting items out of the budget, but looking for ways to better stretch the funds that are available and bring in additional revenue. “There is a way in which you can better spend your money,” he explained.”It’s not that anything is being done wrong; the question is, can we do the same with less expenses?” While previously on Council, he said he helped save money by negotiating a better deal on an insurance contract. He was also able to persuade a company to place bars around exposed gas lines for safety at no expense to the borough. Cruciani, the youngest of the candidates at 30, said he represents “a new generation of leadership that will bring fresh ideas and a new perspective to the borough.” “I plan to use my education and experience in negotiations, business and law,” he said, “to diligently review all issues that come before the council in an effort to avoid short-sighted decisions and create a lasting prosperity for the borough. I will always favor the interests of the borough taxpayer over the special interests of a few.” He echoed Scott’s and Bennett’s concerns for the borough finances, stating, “the most important issue facing our borough is remaining financially solvent.” “This is especially difficult,” he said, “because of the debt
Cruciani
Klein
we incurred through poor decision making over the last decade. We need to rigorously pursue paying off this debt without creating a further burden on law-abiding taxpayers.” One way he plans to accomplish this, he said, is by making the effort to collect revenue from delinquent taxpayers. Running for three four-year council terms are democrat Gerrie Fitzgerald Carey, current council president; democrat Jim Klein; democrat Patrick Williams, current council member; Bennett and Cruciani. Carey, 70, was born and raised in Clarks Summit, living the past 47 years on Gladiola Drive, where she and her husband raised four children, Hutch, Mary Ellen Berry, Rick and Colleen. They have five grandchildren. She has served on Council for four terms from Vice President to President. She said she enjoys “working with our devoted council members on numerous projects and issues, seeing them to completion.” Carey discussed the current state of the borough, “Our borough is made up of a large percentage senior citizens and we respect their fixed income. Our Earned Income Tax, due to the economy, has been decreasing, thus leaving us with the only option to brainstorm and find new sources of revenue, while keeping our services in place. Raising taxes is never an option. We have been very successful with J.P. Mascaro,
in securing our garbage contract with no increases and our new single stream recycling, which has alScott most doubled for recyclable revenue. That is due to all our conscientious residents’ good efforts in getting our tonnage up, bringing in more revenue..” Current council member Patrick Williams, 71, is seeking another term. The 42-year resident of Clarks Summit said an issue of great concern to him is keeping the Borough safe and finances in good order. “I want to continue working on the many existing issues in our borough and am always looking for new revenue streams to keep our taxes low,” said Williams. He and wife Carol raised four children and their family includes seven grandchildren. Klein, 72, resides in Clarks Summit, where he has lived for almost 40 years with his wife, Elizabeth. They are members of the Our Lady of the Snows parish and raised their children, Kathleen and Christopher, in the Borough. After teaching at Manhattan College, Iona College and Fordham University, he accepted a position at the Penn State Worthington Scranton Campus. He retired from Penn State after 36 years of service and currently holds professor emeritus status. He and his wife serve on the board of the Friends of the Abington Community Library and various Friends committees. “I would be proud to serve our community as a member of the borough council,” he said.
The Right Person at the Right Time for the Right Reason “What sets me apart from every other judicial candidate is the simple fact that for 5 ½ years I served as a Special Hearing Master. In this capacity, I presided over thousands of cases in the Lackawanna County Court of Common Pleas where I protected the elderly from fraud, and our children from abuse and neglect. As the ONLY CANDIDATE with this unique hands-on perspective, I have the ability to perform my judicial duties on day one. I PROMISE to use my knowledge and 23 years of legal experience to protect the rights of our citizens, make our communities safer, and ensure that Lackawanna County remains a wonderful place to live. I would be honored to have your vote on election day.”

NEIGHBORLY ADVICE
When disagreements arise between neighbors, it is preferable to try to work things out by talking directly and amiably to those responsible for disturbing activities. Of course, this approach does not always work, in which case, those offended by a neighbor’s action should familiarize themselves with local ordinances that provide protection under the law. It may also help to know if other neighbors are similarly affected by the actions of the neighbor in question. If so, enlisting their help may help to convince the offending neighbor that the problem is not an isolated one. Even in cases where there is not a relevant law, neighbors who unreasonably interfere with the use and enjoyment of another’s property can be sued.

WHO DIRECTED THE nEW MOvIE “THE GREAT GATSBy”?
have you ever wondered what kind of music a duck would make? Or could your grandfather sound like a bassoon? Russian composer Sergei Prokofiev pondered these questions during his 1936 symphony for children – “Peter and the Wolf.” And the Dietrich Children’s Theatre will be bringing this beloved children’s tale to life May 18 at 11 a.m. Join us on this adventure as we see Peter and his friends imagine catching a wolf with the help of the orchestra. Gather up your kids and family for this must-see show. Admission is free thanks to funding from the Pennsylvania humanities Council. Tickets can be reserved by calling 570.996.1500 or they will be available at the door while they last. we will also be bringing the Gamut Theatre Group’s production of Romeo and Juliet to the Dietrich this weekend. All are welcome to attend this free performance Sunday, May 19 at 3 p.m. This show is the perfect opportunity to introduce preteens and teens to Shakespeare. The performance is 80-minutes in length and is an original text adaptation of this classic love story. when I was growing up, my mother and her friends took me to a few of the Great Bard’s plays when Misericordia university hosted Theatre-on-the-Green. My appreciation for theatre really developed then. I may not have understood all of the elements of each play, but each show gave my mother and me plenty to discuss during the weeks following each performance. This will be the sixth year we will be bringing in the Gamut Theatre Group of Harrisburg to perform Shakespeare. After all of their shows, the actors stay for a talk back session with the audience. It’s a wonderful opportunity for audience members to ask questions about the play, find out what it is like to be a professional actor and more! I enjoy the talk back sessions just as much as their performances. This free show has been sponsored by the Overlook Estate Foundation. Tickets are available by calling 570.996.1500 or at the Dietrich’s ticket booth while they last.

LaPlume native’s novel ‘spans generations’ BY JoAN MeAd-MATsui Abington Journal Correspondent
In its truest form, “The Geneva Project: Truth� is a story of adventure, friendship and self-discovery, written by author Christina (Jones) Benjamin, formerly of La Plume. While her target audience is young adults 10 to 18-yearsold, Benjamin has heard from fans age 10 to 60 who read “The Geneva Project� and love it, she said. This is why Benjamin loves to write for the young adults’ genre. “It can bring generations together,� she said. “Parents and grandparents who read it can enjoy discussing it with their kids and grandkids. The theme of adventure, friendship and self-discovery that span The Geneva Project are really timeless, so I think anyone can enjoy it.� The two central characters in her book are Geneva and Nova, and according to Benjamin, Geneva, a young girl, becomes trapped on a floodravaged island full of orphans, natives and wealthy citizens of a prosperous city called Lux. She finds herself enslaved at an orphanage with a bleak future and a past she knows nothing about. That all changes when she meets someone who promises that there is more in store for her than she ever could imagine. Her once dull life quickly spirals out of control as she realizes she has magical powers and may be a key part of unlocking an ancient legend and finding out her true identity, said Benjamin. The author described Geneva as being “short and slight in frame and always feels she needs to overcompensate for that.� “She has shockingly bright blonde hair and clear blue eyes. She feels her appearance makes her stand out and she

She just wants to be accepted by her classmates, but she doesn’t really know how to fit in. She struggles a bit with self-doubt and confidence initially.â€? Geneva’s courage and loyalty to her friends are themes that Benjamin believes are important in life and can set good examples for young adult readers. Nova is the boy everyone wants to be or be with, she said. “He’s tall, cool, handsome, strong and does it all without trying. He knows he can get his way when he wants it and he uses this to his advantage when it’s in his best interest. But I also wanted him to be vulnerable and genuine. He fights for what he believes in and I admire that part of his character. He also has a great sense of humor which is what makes writing for him so fun for me‌â€?

Benjamin found inspiration for the storyline and characters in some of her favorite places: La Plume while growing up; on vacations, locales she wishes she could vacation and her own imagination. “That’s what I love about writing; it gives you the freedom to imagine a world without rules or restraints,� she said. The author, who said she has always wanted to write a book, but never could seem to find the time for it until recently, began “The Geneva Project� while pregnant with her son. “I was pregnant with him when I started writing and felt, what a cool thing it would be to write this fun story of childhood adventure that I could read to him and tell him that he was therewith me every step of the way while I was writing it.� Her book was approximately one year in the making and was self-published December 2012, by a publishing company, Crown-Atlantic Publishing, that her husband Philip created. “He really got involved in finding out how to get the book published. If it wasn’t for him it would probably just be on my laptop still. He’s a graphic designer, so he did all the art for the book, the press kit and the website. My sister-in-law is an editor so she did the editing for me, so it really was a family project.� Currently, Benjamin is working on book two, a sequel to “The Geneva Project – Secrets� and has plans to make it at least a three- book series. Paperback copies are available on Amazon.com, Ebooks on Amazon.com and through Barnes & Noble and iTunes.

RANSOM Continued from Page 1A voting, public comment would have to be made at the beginning, not the end, when it would be too late. “It makes no sense to hear comments after voting,” he said. Auriemma suggested allowing for public comment scattered throughout the middle of the meeting on the question before votes are made. Scacchitti said that is reserved for the board members and to open it to the public would prolong meetings. The supervisors said they will take Auriemma’s concerns under advisement Auriemma also inquired about land on Main Street in Ransom, formerly a quarry, that was purchased several years ago by the township. He asked if the supervisors had thought about selling it for a profit, adding he was not sure why the property was purchased in the first place. Supervisor David Bird said they are not necessarily considering selling the property, but are looking into ways to make money, such as using it to generate solar energy. Resident Bud Stann said he feels the land was a good investment and will be worth even more 30 years down the road. “No one will ever persuade me that that’s a bad investment,” he said. Stann also commented in regard to a longstanding issue with an exposed gas line running across a creek on his property. He said the company, UGI, visited him two days prior with the final plans to fix the problem, and the work should be started soon during this low-water season. Resident Hank Rowinski asked for update on the proposed land development plan for a shooting range by Ransom Recreational Shooting Sports. Macheska read a letter dated April 25 from the company to the township Planning Commission in regard to a fencing ordinance. The letter stated the current plans meet all the requirements. It was noted, however, this is Planning commission business, not supervisors. Macheska also outlined another letter received by the supervisors from the same company requesting a formal ruling on several issues Scacchitti said he feels a formal ruling from supervisors at this point would be premature, because no recommendation has been given yet from the Planning Commission. Other items discussed at the meeting included the Peddling and Soliciting ordinance and resolution, in which the board voted in favor; a misunderstanding which was worked out between a resident and the township zoning officer; the staff reports and minutes from the previous meeting. It was noted the next regular meeting will be held June 3 at the Mount Dewey Community Hall.

the township. “She feels that betrayal to her core,” Bolock said. “It’s contrary to her makeup.” He added that she began working at the Gourmet Restaurant last August, earning money to repay the township and has so far paid back $2,800 of the amount stolen. He said she is undergoing counseling to try and “come to grips with how this happened, and the remorse.” Barrasse addressed Zielinski saying arguments were made on her behalf, however, the problem he sees is that it is not a one-time offense. He clarified it is a first offense, but occurred multiple times and was pre-meditated. He also cited the breaking of public trust as an issue. After a period of silence, Zielinski responded, saying she could not answer to those statements, but would like to
say a few words. “Since I started working for Ransom Township, I always prided myself in doing the best of my ability for the township,” she said, adding she is sorry for her wrongdoing and intends to make restitution. “I sincerely regret the embarrassment, the shame, the humiliation I caused the supervisors and the residents of Ransom Township,” she concluded. At the ruling was made, Zielisnki was handcuffed and led from the room. Supervisors Bird and William “Bud” Brown expressed relief from the conclusion of the proceedings, yet disappointment in the sentencing ruling. “I think she should have got more time,” Brown said, “But that’s not up to me. At least she’s making partial restitution.” Bird agreed, adding, “We’re hoping to put this behind us now and continue doing our jobs as supervisors.”

WAVERLY TWP. - Plans are moving forward to transfer the deed of the historic Waverly schoolhouse to the Neighborhood Preservation Alliance, according to Waverly Township Supervisors at their recent meeting. The township will allow the transfer of ownership as long as the schoolhouse is used for recreation and cultural purposes only. If there is failure to maintain the agreement, the township can regain ownership of the schoolhouse. Transferring the deed will allow the Alliance to gain grants more easily. Before this, they had to apply through the township. The language for the agreement has been revised by Solicitor Atty. Andrew Hailstone who said, “With what they’ve done so far they seem to be

pretty well dedicated.” A motion for Hailstone to present the proposal to the Alliance has been approved. A mock drill was held last week at Abington Heights High School and Middle School. Police Chief Kenneth James spoke about the upcoming tour being held in the elementary schools in the Abington Heights district. The purpose: Emergency personnel will familiarize themselves with the layout of the buildings in the event of an emergency. The Confined Space Entry policy sample, given by PennPRIME, will mean more work for the Public Works department, according to supervisors. In compliance with the policy, two people are needed for the job, which had normally required one person, according to supervisors. The “confined space” in question
is an area used to check the gauges for the water treatment facility which must be checked daily. The Supervisors are beginning to look into ways to move the gauge system outside to eliminate their need for the policy.

Coach: A.H. senior ‘anchor of our outfield’ By RoBeRt toMKaVaGe
rtomkavage@theabingtonjournal.com
ABINGTON JOURNAL / JASON RIEDMILLER
Abington Heights senior centerfielder Josh Slocum has been described as the “anchor” of the Comets’ outfield by head coach Bill Zalewski.
If the ball is hit anywhere near centerfield, there is a good chance Abington Heights senior Josh Slocum will track it down. “He can really go get the ball and covers the gaps very well,” Abington Heights head coach Bill Zalewski said. “We always thought his defense was very good, but now we know when the ball is hit in his direction, he’s gonna get it. He’s really the anchor of our outfield. He helps the corner outfielders out a lot with his range, that’s why
we put him in centerfield.” According to Zalewski, the Clarks Summit resident can also be counted on when the team needs a spark. “He’s a real clutch hitter in key situations,” he said. “ He’s a good, solid baseball player.” Zalewski added that Slocum has taken on an added leadership role as a senior. “He’s one of our team captains this year,” he said. “I noticed him take a lot of the young players, especially the outfielders, under his wing and really push them through the drills and keep them focused. He’s an outstanding leader and
a great teammate.” Zalewski believes the secret to Slocum’s success is simple: hard work and repetition. “He’s a very dedicated baseball player,” he said. “At practice, when we’re done taking fly balls and reps in the cages, he always wants to take extra. He works hard to improve every skill that he has.” Slocum, 18, kept busy as a youth, playing multiple sports, including baseball. “I was five years old when I started T-ball,” he said. “I was an athletic kid when I was little. I wrestled and played football and I wanted to play
three sports.” Slocum credited his vision, both in the field and at the plate, for his success during his high school career. “One of my best skills is picking up the ball in the outfield,” he said. “I see the ball well off the bat. I also see the ball well off the pitcher’s hand when it’s coming in.” The future Colonel thinks the experiences from playing travel baseball have been the

Lakeland sweeps Class AA track events Staff RepoRtS
The Abington Heights girls took advantage of their distance running strength while the Lakeland teams got a boost from their hurdling dominance on the way to high school team championships May 7 in the Robert Spagna Lackawanna Track Conference Championships at Scranton Memorial Stadium. The Lady Comets produced 95.5 points, the highest total by any team at the event, while taking the Class AAA title. Both Lakeland teams finished third overall and won Class AA championships with the highest point totals by a small school. Lakeland had 76 points in
the girls meet to easily defeat Montrose with 49. The Lakeland boys had 83 points, way in front of Holy Cross with 34.

United Sports Academy gymnasts win at states Abington gymnasts continued to excel in the 2013 season for the United Sports Academy team of Dunmore. Competitive gymnasts compete in Levels 1-10, with 10 being the highest pre-collegiate level. Level 5 gymnasts generally practice nine hours per week, all the way up to the Level 10 teens who are in the gym an average of 20 hours a week. Tayler Osterhout, 11, took third place on vault at the Pennsylvania Level 8 State Championship in Bernville. Tayler’s all-around score qualified her to move on from States to the multi-state Regional Championship, held in Landover, Md. April 27-28. Regional competition is the highest for Level 8 gymnasts. Six different states each send their top eight gymnasts to compete head to head. Athletes from Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, New Jer-
sey, Virginia and West Virginia competed. Tayler placed fourth in vault at Regionals, an impressive accomplishment considering she started the season as a Level 7 gymnast. She and her coaches made the decision to skip ahead to Level 8 in December 2012. Jane Mecca and Calista Marzolino qualified for Level 8 States but encountered injuries that prevented them from competing. In Level 7, Liz Hobbie won first place in all-around and on bars and placed second on floor, vault and beam. The Level 7 State Championship was held in Chambersburg April 20-21. In Level 6, Anna Clifton won first place on the beam and Elizabeth Franchetti placed fourth on vault and all-around at States in Wexford April 13-14.

Area players win district titles, advance to states By Jay Monahan
Abington Journal Correspondent
SOUTH ABINGTON TWP. — For a short time in the first set, Jai Redkar forgot about the moment. The Abington Heights High School junior coasted through the District 2 Class 3A championship like he had all season when he put his game on cruise control, allowing Delaware Valley’s Andrew Neidig a brief window of opportunity. Redkar composed himself and posted a 6-3, 6-2 win over Neidig for his first district crown May 13 at the Birchwood Tennis & Fitness Club. “I think I just lost focus for a few minutes,” Redkar said. “Up 4-1, in the district final, it’s normal to be like that. I focused, and it worked out.” Redkar remained collected throughout the semifinal and final rounds, rarely losing his composure. He takes his undefeated record to PIAAs on May 24-25 in Hershey. “To be in this position, you have to be playing some great tennis,”
he said. “But I was pretty critical of myself out there. There’s always room for improvement.” Scranton Prep’s Will Cognetti outlasted an evenly matched Henry Cornell, of Wyoming Seminary, in a match where 20-volley serves became the norm to win the Class 2A Boys Tennis Singles championship by a 7-6 (3), 6-3 score. Cognetti overcame cramping late in the second set. With a 4015 match point on the line, he and the top-seeded Cornell dueled to a 40-volley point, won by a misdirection by Cornell. Cognetti notched the championship on the next point, in what he said was his last opportunity to withstand the pain. “If he won that game, he probably would have won (the match),” said Cognetti, who won his first district title. “I was cramping up pretty badly at the end. I could barely hold the racket.” Cornell defeated Cognetti a week earlier in the district team final.

biggest reason for his improvement as a player. “I have been playing baseball all summer since I was 10 years old,” Slocum said. According to Slocum, Zalewski’s tutelage has also played a role in his progress on the diamond. “We’ve worked a lot in the outfield,” he said. “He’s also helped with my hitting. When I’m doing something wrong, he let’s me know so that I can work on it.” As a senior, Slocum has worked to set a positive path for the underclassman to follow. “I like to set a good example for the younger kids,” he said. “Hopefully, they will take the tradition that has been established at Abington Heights and carry it on.” The Comets are off to a 8-5 start and handed Valley View their only loss of the season. “We’re playing very well as a team and our pitching is doing very well for us,” Slocum said. The son of Mark and Barb Slocum is also a member of the wrestling team at Abington Heights. Slocum plans to attend Wilkes University next fall to study mechanical engineering and play baseball.
