in step is harder than it looks. Lake-Lehman students learned that for themselves at a color guard camp presented by two seniors July 16-21. Color guard is flag spinning combined with dance movements, and performances during the outdoor season interpret music played by the marching band. During the indoor season, sometimes called winter guard, dances are choreographed to selected music and are performed in a gymnasium setting. Guard members spin and toss flags, rifles and sabers – whatever prop is deemed appropriate for the selected routine. Deanna Szabo, 17, of Pikes Creek, has been part of color guard since she was in sixth grade. She and friend Jessica Campbell, 17, of Lehman, orga-
nized the camp as part of their senior projects. “I was bored and it looked like fun,” said Campbell about joining color guard five years ago. “I liked all the bright colors and equipment.” Nearly 10 students attended the camp looking to learn more about the guard or to improve on the skills they’ve already learned. Twelve-year-old Lacey Carey, of Noxen, has been in color guard for a year and can already toss with the best of them. She and friend Mikayla Kidd, 12, of Harveys Lake, demonstrated their skills during the camp. “When I joined, I thought it See GUARD, Page 10

Pay increases approved for super and his assistant By SARAH HITE shite@mydallaspost.com
The Lake-Lehman School Board avoided a Sunshine Act violation and approved a raise for the superintendent and his assistant at a meeting Monday. The board voted 5-2 to ratify the Lake-Lehman Education Association and Lake-Lehman Educational Support Personnel Association agreements, extending contracts for another two years. The contracts were approved at a special meeting in June, but that meeting was not advertised 24 hours beforehand, so the board had to revote on the issue to avoid a Sunshine Law violation. Board President Mark Kornoski and board member Karen Masters voted against the measures while board members Andrew Salko, Walter Glogowski, James Welby, Richard Bombic
“I think it’s a terrible thing to do to the taxpayers.” Mark Kornoski Lake-Lehman School Board member on administrators’ raises
and Kevin Carey voted for the motions. Board members Bo Kreller and David Paulauskas were absent. Kornoski also said teachers will received a 2.6 percent raise and “free health care” with this agreement. “I think it’s a terrible thing to do to the taxpayers,” he said. Kornoski also asked Solicitor John Audi if members could vote for the contracts if they have family members employed by the district. Audi said the state ethics commission ruled that as long as board members were not voting on individual family members’ salaries, it was ethical. Kornoski said he believed Bombick and Welby have family members employed by the district. The board approved a 3.5 percent raise for Superintendent James McGovern, which will
change his annual salary to $116,763.53. A $0.60 per hour raise was approved for Assistant to the Superintendent Mary Jo Casaldi, increasing her salary to $40,081.60. A similar raise was approved for secretaries in the support staff contract, but Casaldi’s position is not included in that negotiating body. Kornoski said those positions are separate contracts from most other administrative positions covered by Act 93, a section of the state school code that pertains to administrative wages. He said the superintendent and his assistant participated in a pay freeze last year. The board also awarded a bid to Premium Builders of WilkesBarre for the alterations to Lehman-Jackson Elementary School for a childcare facility in the amount of $156,570. See PAY, Page 10

HARVEYS LAKE BOROUGH
Public will decide location of police department By SARAH HITE shite@mydallaspost.com
After listening to residents’ comments about the proposed police station relocation, members of council took action in remedying community concerns Tuesday by choosing to let voters decide on the issue. Whether the police department, currently housed across from the general municipal authority building on State Route 415, should be relocated to 22 Little League Road will be a
referendum question on the general election ballot in November. Council members Michell’e Boice, Thomas Kehler, Ed Kelly and Amy Williams voted for the measure while Larry Radel, Fran Kopko and Boyd Barber voted against it. The motion, proposed by Boice, also asked council to “slow down” with the process of relocating the police station and finding estimates for renovating the existing building. The issue has been one of contention since the borough
The issue has been one of contention since the borough was awarded grant funds to relocate the police station in March. Many residents, former and current council members claim they never knew the police station was in poor condition or that the borough had applied for a grant.
was awarded grant funds to relocate the police station in March. Many residents, former and current council members claim they never knew the police station was in poor condition or that the borough had applied for a grant. Mayor Clarence Hogan has
said the existing building is not suitable for a police department due to its wooden frame, poor plumbing and other conditions that could cause security problems. The former recreation building is a concrete shell, and the renovations needed to convert it
to an up-to-code and handicap accessible police station are estimated to cost nearly $80,000. Council solicited bids for the project last month and Radel said bids are expected this week. Radel also said if the returning bids are higher than the grant money awarded, the project cannot be completed. Resident Rob Weaver asked why council did not get estimates to renovate the current police station to compare costs. Many residents have had concerns about the project since it
was revealed, from the safety of the proposed location to whether council had violated the Sunshine Law in applying for the grant. Former council member and resident Diane Dwyer was uncertain how the grant application could state that the borough intended to move the secretary and zoning officer to the current police building as part of the project but now “the (police) building is condemned.” Resident Ed Williams made a See PUBLIC, Page 10
DALLAS SCHOOL DISTRICT
Resolution may bring in big bucks from low bond rates By SUSAN DENNEY Dallas Post Correspondent
The Dallas School Board may gain $308,000 because of historically low bond rates. Dave Payne and Brian Koscelansky, representatives of PNC Bank, encouraged the board at Monday’s meeting to pass a parameters resolution next month. Payne said this kind of resolution will allow the board to specify a minimum level of savings on the district’s debt service and will allow PNC to move quickly and capture a low rate. Payne said that without a parameters resolution, the wait time for refinancing a bond issue was about two months. He said the market is unstable and bond interest rates are low and the process is similar to locking in a rate on a home mortgage. The board acted on PNC’s proposal and voted to advertise its intent to refinance the bond issue which generated funds for the new high school and other
projects. This does not commit the board to refinance and it will decide at the August meeting whether to pass a parameters resolution. A resolution to renew a contract with accounting firm Bonita and Rainey met opposition from board member Karen Kyle. “It is good practice to bring in fresh eyes,” she said. She recommended considering other agencies to audit the district’s finances. “There’s no question that a public body, like a corporation, should change auditors after a certain period of time,” Board Solicitor Ben Jones said. The resolution to renew the contract with Bonita and Rainey failed, with board member Bruce Goeringer voting yes and all other board members voting no. Member Richard Coslett was absent from the meeting. The board then passed a resolution to solicit quotes from auditing firms to consider at next month’s meeting. A resolution to adopt a 60-
month lease with De Lage Landen Public Finance LLC for two new Blue Bird school buses also met with resistance from the board. Several members questioned whether the old buses needed replacing so soon. Business manager Grant Palfey encouraged the board to enter the contract. “You can get into owning bad buses in a hurry,” he said. The motion passed with board members Charles Preece, Catherine Wega, Colleen Slocum, Larry Schuler and Goeringer voting yes and Maureen Matiska, Fred Parry and Kyle voting no. The board unanimously passed a resolution honoring Dallas High School graduate Paige Selenski, a member of the 2012 U.S. Olympic field hockey team. Her father, Brian Selenski, accepted the proclamation for his daughter, who was playing a game at the time of the meeting. Selenski received a standing ovation from the board, guests and residents at the meeting.
LEHMAN TOWNSHIP
Residents tired of dirt bike noise By CAMILLE FIOTI Dallas Post Correspondent
Bothered by the noise from ATVs and dirt bikes tearing through a vacant lot nearby, several Oak Hill residents asked supervisors for help at Monday’s meeting. The residents, who did not want to be named, complained that teenagers have been riding their quads and dirt bikes too close to residential properties. The residents added that the lot is most likely in a wetlands area, which drains into the Huntsville Reservoir. Township Supervisor Dave Sutton said the board is working on a solution to the problem, such as possibly restricting the
distance people can ride their vehicles from residential areas. He also advised the residents to contact the state Department of Environmental Protection if they are concerned that the lot is in a wetlands area. “We’re not totally against people using quads on their property,” Sutton said. “They just need a large property.” The board also announced the township will begin to accept recycling at the township building in the near future. Assistant Township Secretary Marian DeAngelis said Abe N. Solomon Inc., of Wilkes-Barre, will provide recycling service to the township free of charge. “This is not exclusive to township residents,” said Sutton.
“We’re hoping parents who are dropping their kids off at school will drop off their recycling on the way.” The board said Solomon was the only company that offered free recycling services. The board voted to authorize DeAngelis to negotiate a one-year contract with Solomon, rather than the two-year contract, which Solomon requested. The board added it hopes to offer recycling drop-off times during the week and every other Saturday. DeAngelis said the recycling will be “single stream,” meaning items don’t have to be separated. More information about the program will be provided in the near future.

Police chief to serve on state board By GERI GIBBONS Dallas Post Correspondent
Supervisor Liz Martin commended Dallas Township Police Chief Robert Jolley on being invited to serve as a member of the Joint State Government Advisory Committee on Capital Punishment. “It is quite on an honor to be asked to serve with such an impressive group of people,” Martin said about the invitation. In another matter, Solicitor Bill McCall addressed Turkey Hill’s application for a permit for reconstruction of the store at the intersection of Routes 415 and 118. McCall said the request was
premature and would be evaluated after plans for the project have been submitted. Also, the board announced its intent to advertise for the appointment of a resident to the Dallas Area Municipal Authority to fulfill the term of Tom Doughton, who recently resigned. The board will discuss the matter at its next special meeting. In another matter, resident Morrell Devlin, of Elmcrest Drive, addressed the board about a swale in front of his property that makes it difficult for him to get his vehicle safely into his driveway. Roadmaster Martin Barry said safety was the township’s first priority and the swale was neces-
sary, especially during the winter when water on the roadway could lead to dangerous, icy conditions. Supervisor Frank Wagner also emphasized safety. Board members said they would visit Devlin’s property, assess the situation and report back at the next meeting. The supervisors tabled an ordinance relating to reverse subdivision and will address it again at their next meeting, allowing McCall to do more research on the matter. There will be a public meeting at 7 p.m. on Aug. 7 about the new flood plain ordinance, prior to the board work session, which is open to the public.

DALLAS BOROUGH
Yard sale permits required By GERI GIBBONS Dallas Post Correspondent
Borough Council on Wednesday night passed an ordinance requiring yard sale permits, limiting the number of such sales and providing penalties for violations of the new rules. The ordinance limits yard/ garage sales to two a year. There is no cost to apply for a permit. Last month, Borough Manager Tracey Carr said the thenproposed ordinance was necessary to alleviate traffic congestion and tensions between neighbors. Council also approved an ordinance regulating “BYOB” clubs, requiring permits and establishing penalties for violations. In other business, council acknowledged receipt of requests for proposals from several area firms to provide engineering services to the borough in association with a $75,000 block grant to be used for street and infrastructure improvements. The requests will be reviewed and the most qualified bidder will be determined. A contract proposal will then be forwarded to the Luzerne County Office of
Community Development. In another matter, Dave Broadhead, representing Dallas Family Practice, of Church Street, expressed concern about a Pennsylvania Department of Transportation proposed roundabout to improve traffic flow in the area of that business. The project will eliminate 15 to 17 parking spots in the lot shared by Dallas Family Practice, Orchman’s Coins and
Jewelry and a pizza business. Broadhead is concerned the elimination of the spaces will hurt those businesses. Carr has called PennDOT and requested a meeting be set up to address these concerns in the near future. She said she will contact interested parties to give them an opportunity to attend that meeting. The project is scheduled to begin in 2014.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Reader says voter ID idea is not fair to all Dear Editor: Investigations into voter fraud in the past 10 years turned up only some 86 fraudulent votes out of 300 million votes cast. So to use voter fraud as the rationale for the voter ID law passed in Pennsylvania last spring is itself fraudulent. Almost 800,000 Pennsylvania voters will be stripped of their right to vote by this new law. These are primarily elderly, poor and college students. They represent many Democratic voters. One of our Republican leaders, Mr. Kurzai, has said that this is just what they want so that Mr. Romney can carry Pennsylvania. They cover their tracks toward that end by saying that any of these voters can go to the Motor Vehicle Bureau to get a nondriver license photo ID, the photo ID that they need. First – can people get to those
DMV centers by bus? In our area, probably not. Are the centers prepared to handle crowds of voters who need these IDs? Licensed drivers have all seen the lines created by normal license renewals. Has anyone figured out how to verify absentee ballots? Or will they decide that those who request them will also be disenfranchised? Or can those who don’t have the photo IDs just use absentee ballots? This is an ethical and constitutional failure on the part of our Republican leaders who want to take away our right to vote. It is a back door version of a poll tax. Over the 237 years of our country, we have worked to give everyone that right. We must all exercise our right to vote. Don’t let anyone take away your right! Eleanor K. Rodda Shavertown
Library displays teddy bears During the month of August, the Back Mountain Memorial Library will be a little warmer with a display of a teddy bear collection owned by Todd Eugene Price. A fifth-grade student who attends Cyber School, Todd has been collecting teddy bears for nine years, receiving most of them as gifts. His favorite is “Sparkley Teddy” which was given to him when he had his tonsils out at 1 ½ years old. There are 54 bears in Todd’s collection but he only takes two with him when he goes away to camp. When asked if he shares them with his brothers and sister, he answered with a smile, that he allows his sister, Juliet, to play with them. Todd lives in Sweet Valley with

MOMENTS IN TIME The History Channel • On July 29, 1967, a fire on the USS Forrestal stationed off the coast of Vietnam kills 134 service members, injures hundreds and destroys 20 planes. The deadly fire on the U.S. Navy carrier began with the accidental launch of a F-4 Phantom jet rocket, which hit a parked A-4 Skyhawk jet. • On July 23, 1976, members of the American Legion arrive in Philadelphia to celebrate the bicentennial of U.S. independence. Soon after returning home, many began suffering from a mysterious form of pneumonia, which would become known as Legionnaires’ disease. The final tally was 221 cases, including 34 deaths. • On July 25, 1985, Rock Hudson announces through a press release that he is suffering from acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS). Hudson was the first major celebrity to go public with such a diagnosis.

Back Mountain’s Chris Hadsall, right, steps in to make a catch in front of teammate Carl Markowski in the first inning of the Section 5 Little League game against Green Ridge on Wednesday.
Locals defeat Green Ridge, 10-9, to capture Section 5 Little League championship. Back Mountain American held off an improbable rally by Green Ridge to hang on for a 10-9 victory to win the Section 5 Little League major baseball tournament and a spot in the state playoffs. American’s J.D. Barrett had a two-run homer in the top of the first and then added a three-run shot in the third for a 9-0 lead. A three-run homer by Matt Gilmartin gave Green Ridge some life in the third but the District 32 champ remained resilient when American bumped the lead to 10-4 in the fifth on a solo homer by Matt Mathers. Green Ridge scored four more times in the bottom of the fifth, cutting the deficit to 10-8. But an attempt to get a fifth run was costly as American center fielder Christian Roberts gunned down a runner at home for the third out. American’s chances appeared on fragile ground in the bottom of the sixth when Gilmartin doubled in a run to make it 10-9. An intentional walk loaded the bases with one out, but reliever Chris J.D. Barrett of Back Mountain circles the bases after smacking Hadsall got the final two batters his second home run in the third inning in Wednesday’s Section 5 to preserve the win. Little League baseball game against Green Ridge.

Ethan Zawatski and Michael Anderson combined to strike out seven while holding a very good Kingston/Forty Fort offense to six hits to lead BMT American’s effort. BMT American took a 4-1lead after the first inning on a two-
run single by Zawatski followed by a two-run home run by Dalton Simpson. That score held until the end of the fourth inning when Kingston closed the gap to 4-3 on a two-run double by Jake Malia. BMT broke the game open in the fifth. After an out, Zawatski singled and Simpson walked. Derek Answini brought both home with a triple and Michael Doggett brought home Answini with a two-run home run to ex-
tend the lead to 8-3. BMT closed out the scoring in the sixth on an RBI double from Anderson and an RBI single by Simpson. Darren Kerdesky contributed to the 11-hit BMT attack, going 2-3 while John Betzko and Zane Nardone added hits as well. The team is comprised of 11year-old players from the Dallas School District as well as Wyoming Seminary and Good Shepherd Academy.

comment about Hogan’s letter from November 2011 sent to the state Department of Community and Economic Development, which stated the project had community support. “What is your idea of community support?” he asked Hogan. Hogan said he received positive comments from the public through “word of mouth.” When the motion to put the issue to referendum was approved, Radel told Boice he would have to check with the solicitor about the legality of her motion. Solicitor Charles McCormick had left the meeting prior to the vote. Boice said the grant application could be reworked to conduct renovations on the existing police building, but that will not

looked fun but I was nervous,” said Carey before tossing a metal flag pole and spinning it with ease. “Now I like throwing (the flag) up in the air and catching it.” Kidd hopes to improve on her horizontals – throwing and spinning the flag horizontally – during the week-long camp. “I like everything about color guard, especially throwing and catching the flag,” she said. Carey’s worries about dropping the flag have floated away from her mindset since she started working with the guard. “I’ve been hit with the flag many times and it hurts,” said Kidd. “But you forget about it after a while,” added Carey. Campbell said the activity is more athletically intense than one might think.

In other business, council… • Approved the purchase of “panic buttons” for the borough secretary and zoning officer. Kehler said an incident involving two local men that resulted in one man attempting to choke the zoning officer brought attention to the need for the buttons in the borough offices. • Approved the allocation of unused funds from a grant awarded to the borough in 2008 towards another storm water control-related project. • Voted 4-3 to appoint Rick Hoss as a member of the General Municipal Authority. Williams, Barber, Kopko and Radel voted for the measure and Boice, Kelly and Kehler voted against it. The next Harveys Lake Borough Council meeting will be at 7:30 p.m. Aug. 21 in the municipal building.
Kornoski also asked Solicitor John Audi if members could vote for the contracts if they have family members employed by the district. Audi said the state ethics commission ruled that as long as board members were not voting on individual family members’ salaries, it was ethical.

The girls hoped to teach the younger students the basics of color guard and encourage them to join the guard, too. Szabo said some years the guard has nearly 20 members, while other years the guard could have as few as two or three members. Despite the range of participation, the group is good – it placed second out of 52 schools at the Atlantic Coast Championships last year. Szabo makes it look so fun that her whole family jumped on the bandwagon. Mother Gayle assisted with the camp and three of her children also attended. Fifteen-year-old Lila is nearly a veteran like her big sister, while 9year-old Alaina is just starting. Twelve-year-old brother Josh plays the mellophone in the marching band but came to the camp to support his sister. “I told them, if you want me to go to all your activities, you can’t be going in all different directions,” said Gayle Szabo. “I think their performances are wonderful.”

cord-setting track built by the North East Illinois Council of Boy Scouts of America in Trevor, Wis., which was just over 263 feet. The second annual event, sponsored by Edwards Business Systems of Scranton, was a community service event to benefit the Boy Scouts of America. Last year, the company held its event at PNC Field in Moosic but due to the demolition of the stadium, organizers had to think outside the box to keep the benefit going. “We usually have a home run derby on PNC Field but we couldn’t this year due to the construction,” said Dexter Loeble, regional sales manager at Edwards Business Systems. “Last year, we raised $5,000 for summer camping and other programs for Scouts and this year we’re set to exceed that amount.” Scouts registered their cars for a chance to break records and have fun. Each Scout earned a badge that featured the name of the event embroidered on a tireshaped patch. Jacob Banta, 9, and his father Russ were the first to test out the longest derby track in the world – it stretched from McHale Hall to the Mary Kintz Bevevino Library. Jacob Banta, who hails from Cub Scout Pack 155 out of Trucksville United Methodist Church, “drove” a police car that had most of its weight in the back. Russ Banta manned a red, sparkly car that also had weight distributed more to the back of the vehicle. “Once it hits that hill, then it picks up,” Russ said about why the weight in the cars was distributed in the rear end. It wasn’t the first time he had chosen an interesting design for his car – last year the pack papa

fashioned his car into a chocolate treat. “I took a Hershey bar wrapper and glued it to the car,” he said. “It didn’t run well, but it was neat.” Not long after the release of their cars, Jacob ran beside his police car as his father’s red sparkler jumped lanes and bumped sides along the way. “I blame the driver,” laughed Russ. Jacob beat the record by a mile – well, a mile in pinewood derby talk. His car traveled 406 feet. Several track experts were on hand to measure the distances of cars in comparison with the record as well as to determine what might have caused any bumps in the road. The track was built by Boy Scouts with the help of North American Warhorse in Dunmore and 84 Lumber in Pittston.
