The township of Waverly has been operating two lagoons in series since 1986, but as a result of the Chesapeake Bay initiative to clean up the waters that flow to the Bay, the township is obligated to develop plans to meet the

Hearth Booth ready for shoppers
BY JOAN MEAD-MATSUI Abington Journal Correspondent
WAVERLY - In her workroom at home, Barbara Braatz has been immersed in a project that she recently wrapped up, figuratively speaking, in preparation for the upcoming 20th Annual House, Garden and Gift Show at the Waverly Community House. Ready to be displayed and sold in the “Spring Hearth Booth” are approximately 80 household decorated items created by Braatz, Hearth Booth chair. She was recruited to create the “tablescapes” by show chair, Maria Donahue. This year’s show dates and times are April 28, 10 a.m. - 5 p.m. and April 29, 11 a.m. - 4 p.m. “I actually started thinking about the Hearth Booth items last June and began the purchasing process for the materials in June 2011 as well. I started to sew the (table) runners in December and finished the last one in March. The glassware items were started in January and the last one was finished a week ago,” said Braatz, of Waverly Township, who is an accountant turned interior designer and owner of “Embellishment by Barbara Braatz.” Braatz’s interior design career evolved out of necessity “because we were having this home built… In the whole process of trying to design the home and then decorate it, that’s when my hobby and my passion came into play ,” said Braatz. She realized a need for people to have access to materials and design help, and started out designing custom window treatments for her home. Her husband, Timothy Braatz, M.D., bought a Singer sewing machine for her seven years ago to put the wheels in motion. Braatz received a certificate in interior design from the Institute of Interior Design, Manhattan. Her handcrafted tablescapes reflect Braatz’s love and passion for textiles and fabric. Decorated glassware, including apothecary jars, with coordinated table runners, are among the specialty items eventgoers will find. Glass is, according to Braatz, a medium that can be incorporated into any home and can be extremely contemporary or very traditional. She added, “I’m hoping to bring to the Hearth Booth some interior design ideas through the tablescapes and hope they become an inspiration to people who attend the show.” The glassware is filled with decorative items such as lemons, pears and apples, with textiles and other materials as embellishments. “I tried to make the items as varied as possible to appeal to different tastes.” Glassware is priced from $10 to $40 and runners are $30, with discounts given if items are purchased in pairs or in larger quantities.

If people only knew how many poisons and chemicals are normally used in growing food, it would shock them and scare them, and that was over 40 years ago. Now? It’s even more.

ing a bumblebee and a flower. There was no shortage of enthusiasm. “My favorite part is the inside because there are all different colors,” said nineyear -old Rachel Dempsey in regard to the turtle she helped craft. Preparation for the event has been ongoing for the past few weeks by means of an after school class for the Parent Teacher Association, where students planned construction. “The kids came up with the ideas on their own,” said Lombardi, who has been collecting caps for “months and months.” Lombardi described herself as an art teacher by trade. She is very interested in recycled art and has done projects like this before. “In the beginning of the school year I taught an after school recycled art class,” she said. Lombardi explained how her class utilized items like recycled newspapers, juice pouches and toilet paper rolls to create baskets and purses. “I’ve been growing more and more of a love for it. It’s something I’d like to pursue in my art school,”she said. Lombardi currently has her sights on instituting the “Abington School of Art,” which she intends to open in June. She invited those interested to reach her at 570.575.1039 for more information. “The kids will be happy when they step back and see what they’ve done,” said Lombardi. The work they invested in the bottle cap mosaic will be available for all to see at the annual art show to be held May 7 at the Waverly Elementary School. The students plan to finish the project Thursday afternoon, April 19. Advanced glimpses of the completed creation will be available April 21 when it will be on display at the Clarks Summit Earth Day Celebration from 9 a.m. 4 p.m. and in the April 25 edition of The Abington Journal.

Summit Christian breaks ground A groundbreaking ceremony was held April11at Summit Christian Academy, 660 Griffin Pond Road. Later this spring the school will be constructing a 9,000- square- foot elementary building to house the growing school. The elementary classes have been held in the auspices of Summit Baptist Church in Clark Summit. The new building will, for the first time, bring the entire school to their17 -acre campus on Griffin Pond Road. The building will be ready for occupancy for the new school year in August 2012. High school students joined their younger schoolmates for the ceremony and a welcome to the campus. Parents, friends, former students, supporters and present and past Board Members joined on a snowy April morning to witness the event. The elementary students and their teachers, waving out the windows of the school’s bus, arrived at the location of their new home to the cheers of those
in attendance. The outline of the new 9,000 -square -foot building was painted on the parking lot and the students gathered in what will be the location of their new classrooms . Rev. James Howell, former Pastor of Northmoreland Baptist Church, spoke to the group about the school’s early days and the impact the school has made on his family and church family. He has been a supporting pastor for nearly 30 years. Howell said that he was pleased with the progress that the school is making. The Board Members and Corporate Treasurer were presented with traditional gold shovels with which to break the ground. Joining the school officials was Mark Hannah, a six- year -old student who was given a mini-shovel as he represented his classmates in the ceremony. The Board Members include Chairman Todd Zimmerman, Vice Chairman Roger Hannah, Dr. Ritch Kelley, Faye Moore
and John Antolick. Diana Kelley is the school’s administrator and Tammy Scarfo is the corporate treasurer. Dr. David Crandall, Mountain Top, hosted the event and spoke about the coming transitional year as the school becomes a “One Campus School.”
The theme for the day was “Occupy Summit” as students were introduced to the plans for their new campus. Crandall noted that Summit Christian Academy was the only Christian school in the Abingtons that has a Kthrough12th grade program. Applications for enrollment are

What Dietrich Theater Film Festival movie stars Tilda Swinton?
We are in the midst of another amazing film festival! We appreciate all of our volunteers who made Opening Night such a success. Plus we would like to thank all who attended and celebrated the Dietrich’s 10th anniversary of the Spring Film Festival. What a great way to start 14 days of 14 foreign, independent and art films. If you haven’t been able to see all of the films that you would have liked to see during the festival yet, you still have another week to squeeze them in. During the second week of festival, I hope to catch “A Separation,” which was the winner of the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film; “The Iron Lady” because I adore Meryl Streep and “Jane’s Journey.” If you haven’t quite decided what films you want to catch during festival, the Dietrich will be hosting a Mid-Festival Movie Discussion that might help you determine your film choices. Some of my favorite films have been movies I have learned about by word of mouth. Facilitated by film buffs extraordinaire Hildy Morgan and Bill Chapla, all are invited to come out to this free event on Saturday, April 21 at 11 a.m. to share their views and insights on the festival films they have seen. Admission is free. For more details about this event, please call the Dietrich at 570.996.1500. Another event that is just upon us is Tom Knight’s Puppet Show. Join us tomorrow, Thursday, April 19 at 1:30 p.m. for an afternoon of songs, dancing and great fun. You and your little ones do not want to miss this free event. My favorite songs in his show include “The Elephants Lullaby” and “Library Boogie.” We would like to thank the Tunkhannock Junior Women’s Club for sponsoring the show. The Dietrich will also present a special show for young children and families at the end of the month with the Dietrich Children’s Theatre’s production of “The Mouse’s Marriage”. In this Japanese folk tale adapted for the stage by local playwright Rich Rychak, a sweet young mouse couple fall in love and want to marry. But the girl’s father wants her to be married to the strongest, smartest, best husband in the world. He thinks the best match must be the Sun. But perhaps the Cloud is stronger than the Sun? Or maybe the Wind is smarter than the Cloud? To find out See Movies, Page 8

variety of mediums were used by students, enrolled in kindergarten through fourth grade, to create art exhibited at the NewtonRansom Elementary School’s annual art show held April 12 in the school’s gymnasium. Mediums represented at this year’s show included colored pencil, markers, oil pastel and crayons, sculpture with clay, model magic, Paper Mache, tempera and watercolor paints. The art was created throughout the course of the year, “with students having art only once a week,” according to Amy Kishel, who coordinated the show with Dena Maciak. “Students select their favorite art pieces that are presented on the night of the show,” added Kishel. While at the show, eventgoers also had the opportunity to enjoy ice cream with a variety of toppings at the ice cream social.

The exhibits this month at ArtWorks and the AFA Gallery represented a tremendous investment of time and talent into the fine arts for the student artists involved. “This is more important than graduation,” said 24-year-old Howie Baird, of Dallas, one of 24 senior visual arts majors from Keystone College involved in the single largest senior exhibition the college has ever conducted. Keystone’s senior exhibits are the culmination of four years of instruction in the form of, materials used, and history behind the visual arts. The college has previously hosted staggered openings in Tunkhannock and Scranton. The first single-evening opening held last year featured about18 artists, according to Division of Fine Arts Chairman Ward Roe. event April 6. “It’s the largest we’ve had at Some artists involved in the one particular time,” Roe said of senior exhibit - like photogthe First Friday exhibit opening rapher Alex Seeley, 23, of Lake

Ariel, and book artist Shane Schilling, 22, of Clarks Summit - have participated in First Friday before. For them, however, Friday’s show rises above the monthly openings involved in the art walk through downtown Scranton. “It’s a representation of the four years we spent there (at Keystone) and is supposed to represent the growth we’ve gone through,” Seeley said. Seniors must complete the cross-disciplinary “Professional Practices” course, which encourages a dialogue with fellow students, allows them to prepare resumes and artist statements, and aids in the transition from student to professional artist. The senior exhibition is one focus of the program that highlights the business behind the art world. “They are responsible for every facet of this exhibit,” Roe said. “They all rise to this occasion and pull off creating a body of work that is, indeed, professional and is something that

Baird has his sights on developing a studio, Schilling will attend Marywood University for a master’s degree in fine artsand Seeley hopes to open a portrait business and expand his photojournalism portfolio.

A clutter-free life with kids
It feels like I fight clutter at every turn. With an infant, a grade-schooler and a middle-schooler in the house, this is a battle I wage daily. Is this aversion to too much stuff normal, or am I on the high end of the spectrum? When the kids walk in with their loaded up backpacks, I nearly froth at the mouth to sift through their contents and do away with anything that does not have a predetermined filing place. Of course, most days I exert control over my impulses, first greeting them and inquiring about their day…but there is homework to be completed and returned to the folder, books to be read and reading logs to be logged. There are papers telling us about the latest PTA fundraiser, the Science Fair and the Scholastic Book Order. In my house there is a filing system for all of these papers, and any that don’t fit into one of them meets its end in the kitchen trash can. True, it can be embarrassing when I am overzealous in the filing of school papers. One evening, my third grader asked where her completed homework could possibly be. After looking in all the right places, I finally consulted the trash. My frantic need to declutter the tabletop had led to her homework having to be turned in stained and reeking of coffee grinds. As a minimalistic lover of clear countertops and dressers, nothing can be more unsettling than the return of my children from a birthday party, goody bag in hand. The paper bags full of candy and dollar store trinkets start out being dumped on the coffee table. Trying to stay calm, I leave it there for a few hours as the kids sift through their goodies joyfully. By the end of the day, I have repacked the bag and deposited it on their bedroom dresser, at least out of my most often-viewed sight path. By the end of the week, I covertly sweep through their rooms with a trash can when no one is around, clearing dressers with one fell swoop of my forearm. Why, in our culture, are parents pressured to give junk food and trinkets as parting gifts to the children who attend their birthday parties? Personally, I gave it up several years ago. I’d planned a lovely party for my child, including a kid-friendly meal and beautiful cake, and then my child inquires, “What are we putting in the goody bags?” I gave in time and time again before finally saying, “Enough.” I don’t want all of that junk coming home with my kid and I bet other parents agree. As my first two kids aged, I was elated to finally do away with the massive clutter that comes with raising babies and toddlers. First, we could donate the space-sucking, battery-operated infant swing, the vibrating bouncy seat and the infant tub. By this time, the basement playroom had become cluttered beyond recognition with sets of little toys. The Little People farm, Polly Pockets, Barbies and the Littlest Pet Shop were neatly tucked away on a good day, but more often spilled out on the floor in one big tangled mess. Why do they need EVERY toy set marketed to children their age, I wondered? But with birthdays and Christmases and a plethora of generous, eager grandparents, aunts and uncles who wish to fulfill their every desire; this is reality. During those toddler years, every fun-filled day of play ended with painstakingly picking up the playroom, girls in tow, trying to teach them the benefits of being organized. Finally they’ve reached an age where all they want to play with is the Wii, an IPod and their friends. Trip after trip to the Salvation Army Donation Center, and the basement began to look more like a kids’ family room than the Bermuda Triangle of misfit toys. Then came our little baby Sarah. Determined not to get cluttered once again, I asked friends and family not to overdo it in the baby gift department. Everything we need, we could take as handme-downs and pass on or donate as we go. But grandmothers, at least those in our family, can’t pass a baby boutique without going in. In addition, people seem compelled to bring gifts when they come see a new baby. The good news is that baby Sarah is dressed to the nines, as are any number of like-sized infant girls whose moms have been shopping at the Salvation Army Store lately.

‘Snowbeard’ has something to say BY JOAN MEAD-MATSUI Abington Journal Correspondent
E
d Cole is not opinionated. Or so he said. “Oh, not me,” Certainly not; I have no opinions,” he said with a chuckle. The Clarks Summit resident is a blogger who took to writing “Snowbeard Speaks,” because, according to Cole, “I enjoy forwarding ‘Letters to the Editor,’ but no paper will print a letter every day from me and they (the letters) are often edited. While they have every right to do that, I didn’t like it.” He has also been in a 12-year ongoing political debate with a cousin. “He’s taken the conservative stance and I the progressive,” said Cole. Some of the subject matter includes “budgets and lack thereof, the presidential campaign, untrue statements made and or attributed to the various campaigns and the importance of the debt and deficit compared to joblessness.” He explained, “Those are some of the areas we tend to hit each other over the head with.” So he sought advice on how to set up a blog from a cousin who owns a computer company in New Orleans. “He directed me to Google. Gmail has a very simple arrangement for doing that,” said Cole, who has been retired for more than a decade.
To date, the number of entries he has written is approaching the 550 mark. Cole began writing on a regular basis, practically every day for two years. Some weeks he writes every day. “I never had any idea that I had so much to say,” said Cole, who said he likes to poke fun at politicians and some of the things they say and do. If a particular topic warrants a serious blog, he said, “I try to inject humor in it…” He combs newspapers including the “The New York Times” and “The Washington Post,” along with several other publications, and watches the evening news and “Hardball with Chris Matthews,” as part of his daily ritual in search of subject matter. “There’s always something tucked in one of the newspapers that strikes a chord and I just sit down and write. Once I find that subject, I can usually write something within a half an hour.” One topic readers will find in his blog is education, his top subject. Also, he mentioned a few other favorites “ what makes a corporation a person, the Supreme Court, etiquette of party discourse -a little joke about what you do when you have to go to a party you don’t want to go to and about my running for office,” said Cole. “Other than that it covers all of the bases.” “I love to tease and I guess that’s part of what I’m doing in this – is

I guess if I had a hope it would be that my teasing in these blogs, would cause some folks to maybe change the way they do things a little bit…,” said Cole. In addition to blogging, shortly after he retired, he began playing the Mountain dulcimer, which tied in with his volunteer work with Hospice patients. He also co-chaired the Abington Area Bi-Centennial committee in 1975-76 and was a member of the Rotary Club of the Abingtons at the time. “I was also a member of Clarks Summit Fire Company,” said Cole. “I’ve always felt that everyone has a duty to serve the community in which they live in any way they can. At the risk of editorializing, if we did, there would be fewer problems and maybe even fewer politicians. That would be a good thing, wouldn’t it?” To read Cole’s blog, visit snowbeardspeaks.blogspot.com.
CLARKS GREENClarks Green Borough Council met for their monthly meeting April 11 at the borough building. Discussed issues included a proposed walking trail through the community, a grant for work at the Abington Area Community Park and a new method of sewer billing. The walking trail topic had been discussed at the March council meeting and at work sessions for Clarks Green. Mary Ann Pieski of Clarks Street brought to the meeting a map of the proposed walking trail and pointed out that several portions of the trail would run through private property. “Whoever did this map didn’t do their homework,” she said. James Sweeney of Green Street commented on the potential safety issues of a walking trail at night attracting loiterers. He said, “The residents in my neighborhood are totally against it.” Diane Vietz, who has come to council with the walking trail and has promoted it in the community, however, asked council to consider the possibility of a walking trail in Clarks Green as she believes it will bring the community together. “The actual outcome is not going to be determined by me. I ask that a committee be formed,” said Vietz. Mayor William Thorburn said, “We’re not a broke community by any means, but there’s no money for any project.” He said the budget for the year has already been made and that in his opinion grants could be hard to come by. The Abington Area Joint Recreation Board addressed council concerning a grant the borough is handling for them to finance work on the soccer field at the Abington Area Community Park. Council requested additional information from the board before voting on handling the grant money, such as the written loan agreement from the bank detailing the line of credit and a letter from the company working on the field, Field and Turf. The reason for delay will be to clarify the concerns Councilman Alan Hughes and others mentioned about the possibility of the project cost exceeding the line of credit from the bank. The board agreed to present the requested information April 25 at 7 p.m. when council will reconvene to vote on the issue. Council voted on the new method of sewer billing to replace Pennsylvania Water Company. Council voted to purchase billing software from Diversified Technology to enable them to handle the billing. The software will allow them to e-mail the bills to another company called Smart Bill that will print, package and mail bills to Clarks Green residents. After some debate, council voted to bill residents on a quarterly basis, but will give them the option of paying directly to the office monthly. Pennsylvania Water Company will continue billing until July.

STUDY
WAVERLY - Former Township Supervisor Jeff Thurston attended the April 9 Waverly Township Board of Supervisors meeting in hopes of raising awareness about Lyme disease. Thurston said he is interested in encouraging testing because there of thesignificant number of people who are undiagnosed. Lyme disease is a bacterial infection spread through the bite of the blacklegged tick. Ticks carry a host of other diseases, said Thurston, and when people are tested for Lyme disease they might not be tested for other diseases the tick may be harboring. Thurston believes if the township were to approach government personnel, there would be a way to fund further testing. Thurston was able to educate people a few years ago by showing a documentary “Under Your Skin” at the Dietrich Theater in Tunkhannock. He hopes to host a similar event at the Waverly Community House. While there is no vaccine for Lyme disease, said Thurston, there are ways to prevent ticks from attaching themselves to skin. Spraying clothes with a repellant and wearing high socks and sneakers are a few options. Also at the meeting, a resolution was passed approving the action to issue a bond in favor of Lackawanna College in the amount of $5 million. According to the supervisors, there is no liability or concern from the public in the matter. There is no set closing date for the bond.
new discharge requirements as well as address current discharge parameters by the end of 2013. According to township manager Bill White, lagoon systems are typically inexpensive to operate and do not involve a lot of problems associated with activated sludge systems. Waverly’s system involves two lagoons that have tubes running through them constantly blowing oxygen to digest the waste. “It creates the development of aerobic bacteria that will digest the wastes,” White said. “It does a very efficient job during warm weather, but one of the problems that exist with aerobic systems is that they don’t do a good job getting rid of the ammonia/nitrogen if the water gets cold. The water temperature has to be above 45 to 50 degrees for the bacteria to work effectively. Therefore, we end up with higher amounts of nitrogen and ammonia in the effluent, or what we’re discharging into the stream, during the winter months.” The township has been cited by DEP for not meeting discharge requirements, particularly in the winter. The township has limits on levels of ammonia/nitrogen discharges. In the warm weather, the cap is four parts per liter. In the winter, because lagoon systems are not as effective, the caps are raised to 12 parts per liter. When it warms up again, the limit is back to

four. During the pilot study, the township levels have been running less than one part per liter year round. According to Steve Bray, the water temperature has been kept low to make it more difficult for the plant to work effectively. As of January 3, 2012 the influent from the lagoon, before it entered the secondary treatment facility, was approximately 37 degrees.According to White, the township has been searching three years for a solution. “We needed to address it in a manner that is affordable,” he said. “We came up with a secondary treatment, a treatment after the initial lagoon treatment. It is particularly good for addressing the nitrogen/ ammonia problem that exists with lagoon systems in cold weather. The reason for doing the pilot was a test of the system to determine if it would be effective even in the winter.” The pilot is testing 1,000-

Although it’s a short sample, the pilot is virtually eliminating the ammonia year round. “Based upon this size, we know how big the unit we will have to put in for the whole plant to achieve the same results,” White said. “We’re confident, based on the test results that this treatment is going to eliminate our ammonia/nitrogen problem all together. There were two main reasons for choosing this pilot, according to White. The full system will be below grade, which means the portion of the reactors below the frost line will be surrounded by earth and/or ground water, which will not go much below 50 degrees in the winter. Also, since the reactions are exothermic and quantity is high, the internal reactor temperature is higher than the influent temperature and the ambient temperature. The larger system will be 30 feet under the ground. There is approximately $1 million in grant money through the Pennsylvania Department of Economic and Community Development (DCED) available for the project. The grant money could cover up to 66 percent of the total cost of the project. Therefore, if the new system cost $1.5 million, the township would use the $1 million. If it were to cost $1.2 million, they would use $800,000 of grant money and $400,000 of the township’s money.

volunteer at the pantry when he lived in the area. Thompson has always believed that there is always something people can do to help. “You don’t have to be a lifelong volunteer,” said Thompson. “You can be just doing it once in a while, once a year, just helping somebody occasionally on a one-on-one basis.” She believes that volunteering can be as simple as carrying a neighbor’s trash to the curb. Thompson feels that people should volunteer by doing what they enjoy. “I think everybody should find something they enjoy doing, as opposed to doing something because it’s a volunteer job,” said Thompson. “You get something out of it as well as the organization or the person you are helping. If you find something you have passion about, you’ll do it more often.” She encouraged anyone interested in volunteering at the Dalton Food Pantry, whether once time or more frequently, to visit the pantry, which is located downstairs at the Dalton United Methodist Church,125 S.

Lions rout Foresters BY JOE BARESS Abington Journal Correspondent
FACTORYVILLE- The Lackawanna Trail High School baseball team continues to roll early in the season after a shutout victory over Forest City April 12. Sophomore Matt Flynn pitched five shutout innings en route to a 10-0 victory over the Foresters. The win helped the Lions remain undefeated on the season at 4-0. “Matt Flynn pitched a really good game,” Lions coach Todd Peters said. “He threw strikes and didn’t get behind. He did basically what we’ve been preaching all year, which is to get
ahead, throw strikes and let your team make the plays.” In the top of the first inning, Logan Fitzsimmons, the Foresters’ first batter of the game, reached first base on a fielding error and stole second to move into scoring position. Fitzsimmons advanced to third on a sacrifice fly, but Flynn worked his way out of the jam, striking out Jake Fedak looking to end the top half inning. The Lions capitalized on Forest City’s missed opportunity and piled on five runs in the bottom of the first. “On our home field especially, we talk about getting a quick

Mets, Miners merge March 1 Two well known, successful travel/elite baseball organizations, the Moosic Mets and Scranton Miners, have announced their merger effective March 1. As part of Moosic Baseball the newly named, Moosic Miners, will be comprised of teams that compete in the 9U through 17U age bracket. The Moosic Mets will continue to be a showcase 18U travel team. This event brings together two Northeast Pa.’s programs, blending talents and resources in the competitive sport. With players representing more than 20 schools, Moosic Baseball will serve Northeast Pa.’s baseball players with coaches and training. The union of these two programs brings together nearly 40 years of baseball experience. Harry Nelson, founder and manager of the Moosic Mets said, “The merging of our two longestablished programs is truly exciting. We look forward to building on each
teams unique heritage, while focusing on common goals; developing our players to be the best they can be, both on and off the field. Our combined strengths make us better together than we were individually, and that creates a great opportunity for our players and it’s something I’m really excited about.” Rob Judge, founder of the Scranton Miners also believes combining the teams will be mutually beneficial. “Harry and the Moosic Mets have been such a huge part of local baseball,” said Judge. “We’ve had great success over the last 7 years on the younger age level, and we’ve made great strides with our older kids the past couple of years. But we felt that in order to create the best opportunity for our players to play competitive baseball beyond high school, a merger with a team as respected as the Mets was a no brainer.”

t’s more than just cars and sneakers on the Baptist Bible College and Seminary campus in Clarks Summit. While most students fall into the category of pedestrians, a few have hopped onto longboards. A cousin to the more widely -known skateboard, the longboard has a longer, wider board, thicker wheels and wider trucks, providing a smooth, fast ride, and ease in carving (or turning). With an experience similar to
snow boarding, wakeboarding, or surfing, students like Nathanial Armstrong, a junior Sports and Recreational Ministries major from Jonestown, have a smoother way to get to class, the Phelps Student Center, or anywhere else. “Longboarding gives a similar feel to those two board sports,” Armstrong said. “The carving feel is almost identical...and overall balance training is similar.

Abington Heights also advanced to the state team. Steinbach, who has been skiing since he was about 15 months old, enjoys the freedom on the slopes. “My parents got me started in the sport pretty much as soon as I could walk,” he said. “I like being able to go as fast as I want and being able to control what I
can do on my skis.” Steinbach also won the Gold Cup as a 14-year old. “I was really awesome to win again,” he said. His favorite event is the giant slalom because of the speed of the race. Steinbach is strongly considering attending the University of Colorado at Boulder next fall.

It is laid back and offers more of an experience." Bobby Newman, a sophomore Specialized Ministries major from Newport News, Va., was first introduced to the sport on another college campus. “It looked like fun,” Newman said. “I got a board for Christmas, just before I came to BBC. I heard a lot of people here were into boarding, so I figured that I would get into it sooner or later.” Longboarders on campus feel a sense of community with their fellow riders. When given the chance, and the infrequent lull in homework, Baptist Bible College boarders like to take their equipment off campus together. “The main reason we ride is simply because we love the

sport and it’s a great way to make new friends and fellowship with current ones,” said Newman, who has been riding for over a year. “Whenever I feel stressed with homework, or it’s a beautiful day out, I love to longboard off campus. And the plus side of having a longboard is getting to class faster,” Newman added. While many simply enjoy the relaxing ride and convenience of getting to their destination faster, different styles of longboarding offer different levels of participation. Different methods include cruising, free-style, free-riding, downhill, racing, and long distance pushing. “Longboarders can do tricks that cannot be done on skateboards,” Armstrong said. “They are better for downhill and high speeds. Longboarding in general is still being invented and is evolving.”
