Gas co. donation ensures safety By SARAH HITE shite@mydallaspost.com
Thanks to one of the companies constructing a pipeline in Dallas Township, Back Mountain emergency personnel have a new tool at their disposal to help respond to calls related to the natural gas industry. PVR Partners, formerly Chief Gathering LLC, recently donated a Polaris Ranger 800EF all-terrain vehicle to Dallas Fire & Ambulance Inc. The vehicle will be fitted with equipment that will

Community’s the thing in Noxen Residents gather to buy stuff, visit with neighbors during township-wide sale. By SARAH HITE shite@mydallaspost.com
Those from Noxen and beyond perused the township streets for interesting buys and familiar faces during Noxen Day, a township-wide yard sale, on July 21. Cathie Pauley, longtime community advocate and first-term supervisor, manned the sale at the old Noxen School, which benefitted the “last big project” in restoring the century-old building. She believes Noxen Day has been part of the community tradition for just as long. “This has been going on for centuries, I swear,” said Pauley. “Everyone just puts their stuff out and they go and see each other. We’ve been doing this for 12 years and all the items are donated.” Funds raised from the sale will be used to complete the siding replacement project on the building on Schoolhouse Road, which Pauley said totaled about $50,000. “We have one side left, and that will cost $10,000,” she said. “It’s so expensive because they have to do the metal bending to make it exactly the same so it can remain a historical building.” But benefitting the school was the last thing on some patrons’ minds – they just wanted to find interesting goods for a bargain. Irene Campbell, of Olyphant, browsed the tables for anything that might catch her eye – after all, it’s part of her job. Campbell has a business called Fabulous Finds of All Kinds in Olyphant, where she sells items she finds from all over the area. “I’m looking for antiques, mostly,” she said. “I’m from more of a city area, but I always find

more interesting things in places like this, more rural areas.” Down the street, Robert Kehler, of Larksville, set up shop – literally – with his step-grandson, 14-year-old Michael Rasmovicz. Kehler is a toy train vendor who often sells at the Sixth Street Flea Market in Wyoming and the Edwardsville Flea Market. He also travels to festivals and fairs throughout the area to sell his goods, which range from toy trains to “everyday brick-abrack.” “It started when my father passed away, and he had a big train collection and I had a lot of trains, and I couldn’t keep all of them, so I started selling,” said Kehler. “Pretty soon people started coming to me to sell their stuff.” Kehler, who sells his wares in addition to maintaining his fulltime job as a custodian at Dallas High School, said “lack of money” is one reason he keeps pursuing his passion, but meeting new people is another perk of the job. “I enjoy trains and talking to people,” he said. “Work is work but this is a fun job for me.” Denyelle Lobacz, of Noxen, set up her sale table near the St. Luke’s Reformation Lutheran See NOXEN, Page 11

Collie Club of Northeast PA President Michael Free, left, and Pat Fedock, of Shavertown, fit ’Shooter’ with a pet oxygen mask, one of three donated by the club to Jackson Township Volunteer Fire & Ambulance.
Helping Rover to breathe easy By SARAH HITE shite@mydallaspost.com
Pat Fedock knows what can happen to pets during a fire. “Thankfully, it hasn’t happened to me,” said the Shavertown resident. “But my neighbors’ house burned down last year and their two dogs died due to smoke inhalation. It’s scary.” There are plenty of devices to save human lives, but the Collie Club of Northeastern Pennsylvania hopes to ensure furry family members make it safely out of a fire, too. The group, to which Fedock belongs, recently donated three pet oxygen masks to the Jackson Township Volunteer Fire Department. The masks are sized small, medium and large to fit most pets. A muzzle can be placed on the animal’s snout before using to ensure the safety of the firefighter or other personnel administering the oxygen. A hose attached to the mask is connected to an oxygen tank, allowing the pet to breathe a bit easier in a fire. Jackson Township Fire Chief Dan Manzoni was thankful for the masks – he said firefighters have been trained to hold a pet’s

The $70 kit, which is part of the O2 Fur Life program sponsored by Wag’N Enterprises Inc., includes three oxygen masks, three oxygen air tubes, a carry bag, instruction manuals with information about animal CPR, a kennel lead, two animal accident reports for first responders, a pet rescue notice form, a Powerpoint presentation about the equipment and a “Pet Oxygen Masks on Board” decal for emergency vehicles. Fedock said it makes her feel safer just knowing the pet masks are available to emergency personnel in her community. “I feel a little bit better - I only live just over the hill,” she said.
Collie Club of Northeast PA President Michael Free, of Springbrook Township, center, along with his parents Charlie and Lorraine Free, round up their collies at the Jackson Township Volunteer Fire & Ambulance station.
“(My husband and I) don’t have kids. We have three Collies, and they’re our kids.” Ron Gryzboski, of Hunlock Creek, the club’s treasurer, said the club does an annual fundraiser of providing coffee and donuts to travelers on Interstate 81 during Thanksgiving. The funds raised enable the group to give back to its community. “We usually give every year,” said Gryzboski. “Sometimes we’ll give to the SPCA. This year, we saw that many groups are getting the oxygen masks, and we tried to find a fire company that’s volunteer-based.” Gryzboski said the Collie Club of NEPA is a group dedi-
cated to preserving the notoriety the Collie breed once had in the mid-20th century with shows like “Lassie.” “My husband and I had Collies when we were growing up,” said Fedock, whose dog, Shooter, was able to demonstrate the use of the mask for the fire chief with no complaints. “They’re just a good, all-around dog.”

he Back Mountain Memorial Library Farmers’ Market opened on July 14 to patrons mingling while perusing the many vendors, including locals like Dymond’s Farm and Brace’s Orchard, to those who sell new products like organic honey and “fancy cupcakes.” Organizers say the first weekend was a great success, causing some vendors to completely sell out of goods within two hours. The farmers’ market is located in the Back Mountain Memorial Library parking lot at 96 Huntsville Road in Dallas and is open from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturdays through Oct. 6.

Daycare coming to Lake-Lehman By SARAH HITE shite@mydallaspost.com
Lake-Lehman schools offer kindergarten classes for children just beginning their educational careers, but soon the district will have a hand in caring for youngsters as small as infants. After taking a long look at the district’s financial future, Superintendent James McGovern and the school board decided alternative sources of funding – specifically operating a daycare facility at the Lehman-Jackson Elementary School – may be a worthwhile venture. “During the budgetary process, not only do we look for ways to do things more efficiently here, but I think the key to funding education in the future is going to be alternative funding, trying to find supplemental streams of money,” said McGovern. “We try to look at what we do well – we’re in the business of education.” The facility will be managed by Hildebrandt Learning Centers, LLC. The childcare company will provide a program manager and instructors for the infant through pre-kindergarten care. Everything else, from supplies to maintenance, will be covered by the district. McGovern said the initial intention was to operate the facility independently, but that idea was scrapped due to lack of experience in the early childcare field on the part of the school district. Another option was figuring the logistics of before and after school care, but before the details could be worked out, McGovern said personnel from Hildebrandt Learning Centers contacted the district about partnering in this venture. The facility will be located in the former district offices next to the Lehman-Jackson Elementary School. The district offices will be relocated in the junior/senior high school around the block. McGovern said there was talk of purchasing an off-campus building for the daycare or constructing a facility on campus, but construction estimates as high as $500,000 prevented administrators from moving for-
Corey was ‘the strongest person’ Recent Dallas graduate succumbs to three-year battle with cancer. By SARAH HITE shite@mydallaspost.com

ward with those proposals. “We just couldn’t do that, and we didn’t want to take out any new financing for this scenario,” he said. About $100,000 was budgeted for the renovation project, and though bids came back a bit higher than expected, the district had enough funds to move forward. Renovations to the district offices mostly entailed demolition of walls to create more open space for the facility. Two pre-kindergarten classrooms, equipped with separate bathrooms, already existed at the site and the facility even has access to its own playground. McGovern said more than enough parking spaces are available for the site, as well.

“We’re not venturing far out from what we normally do,” he said. McGovern said residents had expressed concerns about taking business away from other local daycare facilities, but he said Hildebrandt Learning Centers offers a unique service at a different
cost scale than other programs in the area. “We feel Hildebrandt is one of the most well known and prominent early learning centers in the area and to partner with them, we’re very fortunate,” said See DAYCARE, Page 11
The Back Mountain community is mourning the loss of a young man considered by many of his friends as “the strongest person” they know. Corey Ehret, 18, of Dallas died Sunday, July 22 after a three-year battle with embryonal rhabdomyo sarcoma. Friends remember the recent Dallas graduate as a person whose perseverance and positive outlook on life could rival that of any professional athlete. Ehret was first diagnosed with cancer in 2008, though he remained an active member of the varsity cross country team throughout his high school career. Dallas High School cross country coach Matt Samuel said Ehret sometimes seemed like a second coach – he was always present to offer support and advice to fellow teammates, which included his twin brother, Chris, and his younger brother, Brenden. “He was a source of support, and though he was going through his own personal struggles and for as tremendous as those things were, for him to take his focus away and concentrate and offer his counsel and advice to all other members of teams was just amazing,” said Samuel. “For him to be able to do that at such a young age, you really don’t see all that often.” When Corey’s cancer went into remission, the team celebrated the triumph with him, and he began to run with the team again. Samuel said Corey was a very active and important member of the team during that time. “It was amazing to see him come back and then step onto our team after going through that stuff, and cross country was very tough to deal with in first

place,” the coach said. “He was able to overcome his cancer treatment and contribute to the team in a meaningful way. He was a scoring member of team.” Corey’s efforts were so admired by his coach and teammates that the team started a Corey Ehret Award, which is given to runners who overcome great odds to be successful members of the team. Corey was awarded the honor in its inaugural year, and he helped choose the recipient of the next year’s award winner. “It speaks to the character of Corey and everything he stood for, not just during his battle with cancer, but in his regular life,” said Samuel. “It stands for our most courageous and persevering and diligent athlete.” Former teammate Jess Adams, 18, of Dallas, said the team participated in fundraisers to aid the Ehrets. “When we first heard about (Corey’s diagnosis), we were coming up with ways we could support him, and we helped with different fundraisers,” said Adams. “One thing I remember, a lot of teammates wrote on their shoes, ‘For Peach’ because we used to call him Peachy. Because of his cancer treatments, his hair was peach fuzz and the name stuck. That was a big show of See COREY, Page 10

MOMENTS IN TIME The History Channel • On Aug. 2, 1876, “Wild Bill” Hickok, one of the greatest gunfighters of the American West, is murdered in Deadwood, S.D. Hickok was playing cards with his back to the saloon door when a young gunslinger named Jack McCall walked into the saloon, approached Hickok from behind, and shot him in the back of the head. • On Aug. 4, 1944, Jewish German-born Anne Frank and her family, who had been hiding in German-occupied Holland, are found by the Gestapo and transported to various concentration camps. The young girl’s diary of her time in hiding was found after her death and published in 1947 as “The Diary of Anne Frank.” • On July 30, 1976, American Bruce Jenner wins gold in the decathlon at the Montreal Olympics and sets a world record in the event. After his win, Jenner was voted the 1976 AP Male Athlete of the Year. The 1976 Olympics was his last decathlon. • On Aug. 1, 1981, MTV, the Music Television network, makes its maiden broadcast with the words, "Ladies and gentlemen, rock and roll." The roughly 80 different videos that made up that first week’s rotation on MTV probably represented nearly every promotional music video then available.

STRANGE BUT TRUE By Samantha Weaver • It was German-American painter and lithographer Herm Albright who made the following sage observation: “A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort.” • It’s well-known that there were shortages of many items during World War II -- and caffeine was one. It was such a problem, in fact, that the chemists at Coca-Cola tried to find a substitute, even experimenting with a derivative of bat guano. The idea was nixed by an executive who was afraid of the public backlash if the truth ever came out. • Ever wonder why a barber pole has red and white stripes? It’s a rather grisly tale. At one time barbers did more than cut hair; they sometimes performed marriages and baptisms, served as dentists and even performed surgery. When engaged in the medical work, any excess blood was soaked up by white towels, which were often hung up on a pole outside to dry. As the wind wrapped the towel around the pole, it created a design of red and white stripes.

Scheherazade, the “greatest storyteller of all time” used her talent of magic and spinning tales to save her people from certain revengeful harm. Magic, mystery and comedy were spun together as the “Take the Stage Players” presented “Scheherazade,” a lighthearted tale of an Arabian night storyteller and her efforts to teach their king to turn away from the use of revenge in ruling his kingdom. The play was performed during “Theater on the Auction Block” children’s summer theater series at the Back Mountain Memorial Library grounds on Huntsville Road in Dallas. Plays are selected to give children a broad range of styles, such as comedy, musicals and

what Corey meant to us.” Adams said it was always motivating to see Corey in the stands cheering on his family and his teammates. “He was like our team mascot. He would always be there cheering us on, supporting us all the way,” he said. “It was really cool to see him out there because we knew what he was suffering, but he was always there when he could be.” Marjorie Adams, Jess’s mother and Corey’s former cross country coach, said she saw Corey transform from a middle school runner into a remarkable young man. “He was a great competitor and teammate. I admired him so much and it was very hard to watch him go through (cancer), but he carried himself through it so well,” she said. “It was amazing the example he has set for our teams, and for everyone in our community.” Samuel said he has learned more from Corey through his experiences with the Ehret family

than most coaches learn from their players. “That young man and his family have exhibited remarkable strength and perseverance … It’s unbelievable that these people were able to rise up and meet the extreme heavy burden he was meeting on daily basis, and yet attain the success that they all have,” said Samuel. “I’m amazed at how strong an individual he was. I don’t know if I could do it myself.” Corey was also an active outdoorsman, and even taught close friend Chelsea Martin, 18, of Dallas, how to fish. “I’ve known Corey and his family since we were in first grade,” she said. “He, Chris and Brenden are like brothers to my sister, Amanda, and me. We’ll cherish all the memories we have of Corey.” Martin said Corey’s outgoing personality and ability to over-
come whatever life threw his way made him a great friend and an inspiration. “Corey was a great guy. He loved to talk - sometimes we couldn’t get him to stop talking,” she said. “He loved to share any information he had about fishing or hunting. He had a great spirit, and I’m really going to miss him.” Dallas High School Principal Jeffrey Shaffer said Corey was “one of those kids it was easy to take an instant liking to,” and said his family set “remarkable examples” for the school and community. “I think Corey represents a new definition of what strength is,” said Shaffer. “By watching Corey and watching his family and their situation and in 22 years in education, this is one of the most difficult situations I’ve seen. I’ve also seen a community show love and support.”

McGovern. He said there’s a two-year waiting list for enrollment in Hildebrandt’s programs, and McGovern feels this will allow the 70student capacity facility to fill quickly. McGovern hopes the facility will not only create additional funds for the district - he’s hoping it will net between $70,000 and $100,000 annually – but will also save money in other ways. “If I could preserve one or two teaching positions based on the fact we have a daycare, I think it’s well worth it,” he said. “…Every year, maybe there are people who stay out longer on FMLA (Family Medical Leave Act) that would come back sooner if they believe their children are here at work with them. Plus, the quality of education increases because you’re going to preserve the continuity of that same teacher in the classroom for greater periods of time.” He hopes the facility will also attract more students from other areas and indicated there’s al-
