redistrict the dispatching territories due to a new computer-aided mapping system that would replace the old paper system. According to Andrew Zahorsky of Luzerne County 911, the county wanted boundary clarification on streets both fire companies served. He said there were a few disputed areas within the township, and though he had suggested ways to resolve those issues, two former supervisors, Phil Walter and Glenn Howell, did not approve them. The map was finalized in October, and Zahorsky said Luzerne County 911 started using the new technology last week. Zahorsky said Kunkle Fire Chief Jack Dodson, who did not attend the work session, was opposed to surrendering one of the intersections to Dallas Fire and Ambulance, and Karri Dodson, of Kunkle Fire Co., said there were benefactors who lived in that area. So the financial is more of an issue than public safety, said Christopher Good of Dallas Fire and Ambulance. Conrad Higgins of the Kunkle Fire Co. said the fire company is willing to work out the issues, though he felt Kunkles territory has been depleted over the last 50 years hes been a part of the company. Because of this type of attitude, thats why these fire companies are fighting all the time, said Higgins. One is no better than the other, so lets end it now. Zahorsky said the system cannot be changed for at least a year after the maps are live, and the county is willing to work with the current map if the supervisors deem no change is necessary. Supervisor Frank Wagner, who was on the board in August, said the fire companies work well together and should settle the matter on their own. Zahorsky said the supervisors have the final say in the matter. In other news, the board discussed changes that will need to be made to the townships zoning ordinance to comply with Act 13, the recently enacted state law governing the natural gas and oil

Fire companies debate territory boundaries

The board of supervisors new meeting format ended with the townships two fire companies exchanging heated words about disputed territories on Tuesday. Dallas Fire and Ambulance addressed the board about contested boundaries within the township after two former supervisors did not approve suggestions made by both the fire companies and Luzerne County 911. Last August, Luzerne County 911 approached the township to
industries. Jack Varaly, the townships planning consultant, said the new law supersedes local zoning laws. The township approved comprehensive regulations on natural gas activities in October as two companies pursued gas facilities within the township. Varaly said there are a few areas the law does not address, such as buffer zones and lot sizes, the township could use to strengthen its ordinance. He said the township does not need to be in

A fun family affair

cience projects and chapter books and summer fun vendors, oh my! The Second Annual Family Fun Expo at Dallas Elementary was held on March 1, and about 600 people gravitated to the event.
Dallas Elementary School second-grader Mia Linder, 8, right, and kindergartener Nina Angeli, 6, measure the voltage of a potato.
The three aspects of the expo the science fair, book fair and community vendors were once held separately throughout the year, but due to low attendance at a few of the events, the parentteacher organization decided to jam all the fun into one night. It keeps getting bigger and better every year, said Melissa Chrusch, Dallas Elementary librarian.
Students clamored for the latest titles at the annual Scholastic Book Fair, the proceeds of which help fund new book purchases for the library. I have a list of books the kids really want us to get, said Chrusch. Tina Tomkins, of Dallas, browsed the chapter books with her son, 6-year-old Logan, and 5month-old daughter, Gwendo-
lyn. We read every night, she said. This is a great way to encourage kids to get away from the computer. Logan Tomkins was looking for a book on kung-fu. I get excited when I think about reading, he said. I look forward to it.

Dallas community pays to keep D.A.R.E. in tact

Local governments and the Dallas School District are still footing the bill for the D.A.R.E. (Drug Abuse Resistance Education) program in the Dallas elementary and middle schools, though costs have increased in difficult economic times. This year, the cost of maintaining the D.A.R.E. program at Dallas increased by nearly 25 percent, a cost shared by the district and the municipalities located See D.A.R.E., Page 3
within the district, which include Dallas Borough and Dallas, Franklin and Kingston townships. Officer Frank Ziegler of the Kingston Township Police Department has instructed the program in fifth and eighth-grades at Dallas Elementary, Wycallis Elementary and Dallas Middle Schoolonavoluntarysince1995. He also taught the class at the former Gate of Heaven School. I believe you have to educate
Lehman-Jackson Elementary students and staff celebrated Dr. Seuss Day as part of Read Across America Week on March 2. Classes completed activities, watched a showing of Dr. Seusss The Lorax and sang silly songs to commemorate the day. Lake-Lehman Superintendent James McGovern read aloud the tongue-twisting Fox in Socks, by Dr. Seuss, sometimes stopping to take a breath or catch his bearings. Its not about how well or fast you read it, but having fun while youre reading, McGovern told the students. After the reading, students also enjoyed a Silly Seuss Sing Along led by music teacher Jenilee Kukuchka, who dressed as Fox in Socks. Kukuchka and art teacher Selena Mazzella, who dressed as the Lorax, prepared the Dr. Seuss celebration this year. Ever since I was little I loved to read, and I still read whenever I get a chance, said Mazzella. The key is to start when youre younger and to find something youre interested in. The students also completed several different Dr. Seuss activities within their classrooms. Students were asked to dress in red, white and black, and some classes even had a theme. One second grade class dressed as Things, and students were numbered according to how many students were in the class. Principal Marilyn Glogowski said the interactive day shows children that reading can be fun. Reading is important not only today, but every day, she said. Its very vital. Children remember programs like this more than the curriculum.

Course changes approved at schools

DALLAS SCHOOL BOARD
JACKSON TOWNSHIP
The Dallas School Board on Monday approved changes to course offerings at the high school and middle school for the 2012-13 school year. At the high school, major changes include the addition of several classes to accommodate the opportunities made available since the completion of the new high school building last September. Board President Catherine
Wega said the school was designed to include facilities for more elective courses, such as electronics, prototyping, food preparation and others. Wega also said the high school has fostered a relationship with the West Side Career and Technology Center in Pringle enabling Dallas students to take elective classes part-time at the institution. Traditionally if students wanted to take classes at the technology center, they would have to remove themselves
from Dallas and enroll there, Wega said. Now, if a student wants to take one or two technology courses at the technology center that we dont offer, they can do that and still remain Dallas students. Wega said transportation arrangements already have been made. There will be discussion as to whether the relationship will be reciprocal for Dallas students attending the West Side Career and Technical Center. At the middle school, two
foreign language courses offered in eighth grade conversational French and introductory French will be eliminated, said Principal Thomas Duffy. He said this is part of aligning the curriculum with the high school foreign language department, which is in the midst of restructuring. The following four courses in the foreign language department will be offered to seventh grade: exploration of word origins, introduction to Spanish,
cultural geography and exploration of critical and contemporary world languages. Duffy said these courses would not require a change in staffing at the middle school. In other news, the board also hired Paul Dumond as assistant high school football coach with a stipend of $3,976, and Rich Dumond as middle school assistant football coach with a stipend of $2,725. The next meeting will be held at 7 p.m. in the administration building.

ROSS TOWNSHIP
Weight restriction approved on road

By EILEEN GODIN Dallas Post Correspondent
Special Spaces NEPA holds fundraiser
A new weight limit on a township road and a new pension plan were approved during Tuesday meeting of the Ross Township supervisors. Supervisors approved a 20-ton weight limit on Niemchick Road. Previously, Niemchick Road did not have a weight limit, said Chairman Stan Davis. Fines will be based on the amount a vehicle exceeds the weight limit, he said. The ordinance is in response to several reports of increased truck traffic going into and leaving Hunlock Sand and Gravel in Sweet Valley. In other news, supervisors approved an ordinance to switch the townships pension plan from the Pennsylvania Municipal Retirement System to the Pennsylvania State Association of Township Supervisors, known as PSATS. Davis the two plans are similar with the exception of the administration fees. The fees are significantly less with the PSATS plan, he said. The new plan will affect four township employees who did have a prior opportunity to review the offer. Supervisors also discussed how much road salt will be needed for the next winter season. Davis said they purchase the road salt through the COSTARS program. The COSTARS program is a joint effort by the state Department of Transportation and the Department of General Services to give municipalities the ability to find competitive prices on necessary items. Davis said it is a normal procedure to get bids in now for salt for next year. Supervisor David Williams said the mild winter has left them with excess supply for next winter, but suggested purchasing at least one load. One load of salt is equal to 25 tons. He estimated they have about two and a half loads of salt in the salt shed. It would not hurt to cut back a little, Williams said. The next board of supervisors meeting will be held at 7 p.m. April 3 in the municipal building.

The board of supervisors addressed issues regarding the municipal sewage system at a meeting Monday. The board heard from Paul Pasonick, an engineer from Larksville Borough, about the possibility of tying five homes in the Valley View Estates development into the townships sewer system. He said engineers have devised several ways to correct sewage problems in the development, and one includes connecting a low-pressure system into the townships sewer map. The board told Pasonick he can work on the plan with the townships engineer. The plan would need to be approved by Jackson Township, the Dallas Area Municipal Authority and the state Department of Environmental Protection before it could proceed. The board also passed a motion to move forward with the Bulford Road sewer project. Supervisor Al Fox said the project, which has been in the planning stages for about three years, is almost ready to begin construction. The project includes installing a municipal sewer system for 19 residences because the current system had failed. The projects costs will be split among the 19 residences and the township. Fox said at previous meetings that no grants were available for the project at the time, and the state Department of Environmental Protection had suggested the plan as the only viable way to complete the project. One Bulford Road resident, Mary Doceray, questioned why the township could not find alternate sources of funding for the sewer project. Fox said after holding several meetings, most of the residents involved understand and have been compliant with the process. Supervisor John Wilkes Jr. said at a previous meeting that the project benefits just those Bulford Road citizens, and the costsplitting plan alleviates what residents would have to pay by themselves. Solicitor Jeff Malak said the township is working with Larksville Borough to amicably resolve issues regarding the outstanding payments for services rendered to Steele Road in the borough. The municipalities formally ended their 39-year agreement for the upkeep of a portion of the road. Larksville Borough would pay $400 yearly in liquid fuels funds to Jackson Township for maintenance of the road. Larksville Borough has not made a payment since 2005. Reading a letter from Larksville Boroughs solicitor, Malak said the borough would like to pay its outstanding balance in installments and request that the borough be billed from now on to ensure payment. The next meeting will be held at 6 p.m. April 2 in the municipal building.
EYE CARE SPECIALISTS HAS NEW LOCATION
D.A.R.E.

as much as possible because just arresting people doesnt work anymore, said Ziegler. The D.A.R.E. program is a 10week course in which students learn about the effects of tobacco, alcohol and other drugs and how they can make better decisions in life. D.A.RE., said Ziegler, also stands for Define, Assess, Respond and Evaluate a decision-making model. I think thats what the meat and potatoes of the program is how to make good decisions, he said. They can use this for anything, and when they get used to using it for the small things, when it comes to the big things, theyll be well-experienced. At a recent D.A.R.E. class at Dallas Elementary, Ziegler spoke
to fifth graders-about alcohol advertising and how its targeted at young people. He also touched on the use of inhalants as a drug. Do people really spray paint in a bag and smell it? asked one student. No, I made it all up, Ziegler joked. Yes, people do some crazy things thats why Im here. Angela Lizonitz, Dallas Elementary health teacher, thinks early intervention is the key to preventing drug and alcohol abuse. I think this is the best age to reach them because if you get to them when theyre older, theyve already been exposed to it, she said. Ziegler, who holds a degree in elementary education, cant remember ever having a class like D.A.R.E. when he was younger. He said awareness of drugs and alcohol has increased in younger
children through the years. This is the time when theyre on the border of being a kid and a teenager, he said. When I come into a class, some kids are already aware, and some kids have no clue. Kingston Township Supervisor James Reino Jr. said his two daughters went through the D.A.R.E. program at Dallas, so he knows firsthand how it affects young children. They enjoyed it very much, and it taught them respect for law enforcement and gave them basic knowledge about how to stay away from situations with drugs and pressure from peers, he said. Reino said despite the increased costs during a recession, the supervisors feel any program dedicated to aiding youth in the township is a justified expense. We feel that anything we can do to support the children of our
area, to educate them on the dos and donts of society, is a good, worthwhile project, he said. Ziegler said its important that the program is taught at schools to every child in a certain grade. Its not taught at a Cub Scout meeting where kids can decide not to go, he said. Members of the Back Mountain Community Partnership have even discussed starting the program in the Lake-Lehman School District because of its benefits. Ziegler believes drug resistance education is more important now than ever, and he will continue to teach the class as long as the police department and district allow him. We have to do something more than just ride around in our cars and arrest people, he said. As long as its still relevant, and its still supported, I will continue to do it.

One hundred years ago, in 1912, Juliette Gordon Low founded the Girl Scouts in the United States in order to involve girls in community service and to experience the outdoors. Since then, Girl Scouts has evolved into one of the nations premier leadership development organization for girls.

The display will showcase how things have changed over the years. Above are pictured two Brownies, Breanna Wesley and Madison Lasinski and two Juniors, Mackenzie Lasinski and Tiffany Lasinski. The girls all enjoy being Girl Scouts and said their favorite activities are spending time with friends and camping. They are also involved with service projects, field trips, outdoor training, crafts, singing, selling cookies and earning patches. Breanna is the daughter of Mindy and Brian Wesley of Dallas, Mackenzie is the daughter of Cherie and Dan Lasinski of Jackson Twp. and Madison and Tiffany are the daughters of Jason Lasinski of Dallas.

MOMENTS IN TIME
The History Channel On March 23, 1836, in hopes of keeping pace with the furious march of technology, the U.S. Mint unveils its first steam-powered press. The new-fangled contraption helped crank out coins more efficiently. On March 25, 1911, at the Triangle Shirtwaist Company in New Yorks Lower East Side, a fire quickly engulfs the factory and claims 146 lives, mostly young women. Because management had locked the exit doors, many of the garment workers either expired from asphyxiation or leapt from windows -- a fatal, 10-story fall. The factorys owners were eventually found guilty on charges of manslaughter. On March 21, 1971, "The Andromeda Strain," the first movie to use computer animation, opens. The sci-fi thriller, featuring scientists racing against time and an alien virus, was the first of many films to be made from a Michael Crichton book. On March 24, 1989, the worst oil spill in U.S. territory begins when the supertanker Exxon Valdez runs aground on a reef in Prince William Sound in Alaska. An estimated 11 million gallons of oil eventually spilled into the water, polluting more than 700 miles of coastline.
STRANGE BUT TRUE

By Samantha Weaver Its still not known who made this sage observation: Wisdom is divided into two parts: a) having a great deal to say, and b) not saying it. In 1931, the Newspaper Enterprise Association predicted that crime would be nearly gone in 20 years. Do you subscribe to the adage A rose by any other name would smell as sweet? Consider this: Would that teen heartthrob of an earlier day, Bobby Darin, have become so popular if he had been known by his given name, Walden Cassotto? At one time, Canadas CBC network banned the childrens cartoon "Rocky and Bullwinkle" because of its sometimes unflattering portrayal of the Mounties. The Goodrich company, known primarily for its tires, also invented the first modern golf ball. Sometimes scientists get to express their creativity when they have the opportunity to name things. Take deep-sea sites, for example: in the North Atlantic is the Porcupine Abysmal Plain, Clam Acres is off the west coast of Mexico, and theres a site near the Galapagos Islands called Hole-to-Hell. Those who study such things have found that a sneeze leaves your mouth at more than 100 m.p.h. A Rochester, Mich., law states that anyone who is bathing in public must be wearing a bathing suit that has been inspected by a police officer. Thought for the day: You may do foolish things, but do them with enthusiasm. - Colette

of English at Kings College, where he served two terms as chair of the department and taught until his retirement in 1999. He founded the Writing Center at Kings, and was a founding member of the Northeastern Pennsylvania Writing Council. He and his wife of 39 years, Joanne, raised two sons, Eoin and Connor, in Dallas, where they were respected members of the community. Johns kind nature, quiet intelligence and wry sense of humor were enjoyed by friends from the Back Mountain to Ireland. He first visited Ireland as a college student, a copy of James Joyces Ulysses in his hand, and he returned to the country again and again, making new friends and introducing his wife and sons to the place he loved so much. Upon retirement, he and Joanne moved to Philadelphia, where John taught English as a Second Language on a volunteer basis. He is survived by wife; his sons; his daughter-in-law, Lauren; and his grandson, Sam; along with numerous extended family members. Donations can also be made to the Friends of Saint Malachy or the Kings College Faculty Scholarship program. A teacher to the end, John donated his body to medical research.

The deadline to submit sponsorship forms for the 2012 Dallas Lions Hometown Hero Project is Saturday, March 31. The project was designed to be a one-year event, but there have been numerous requests for participation in the project for one more year. The project will once again be a tribute to those men and women from the Back Mountain that have or are presently serving our country in any branch of the military. The banner would include a picture of the service man or woman in uniform, branch of service and era of service. Because the photo will be enlarged to 27 inches x 20 inches, the quality of the picture on the banner may be affected. The banners will be placed in Dallas Borough and will be done at random and will hang from MemorialDaythroughVeteransDay. At the conclusion of the program the banners will be given to their family members. The sponsorship for each banner is $200. Family members and loved ones of service men and
Heroes deadline March 31

women may purchase a banner themselves or obtain sponsorship by a local business. Should a family wish to purchase a banner, the family name will appear on the bottom of the banner. Businesses who wish to sponsor a banner could have their name at the bottom of the banner. Any and all proceeds realized from this project will be donated to the 1st Lieutenant Michael J. Cleary Foundation which helps returning veterans in a variety of ways, including rehabilitation, working with handicapped veterans and helping with families of fallen veterans. Sponsorship forms are available at the following Back Mountain locations: Dallas Borough Office, Frontier Communications Office, Dallas American Legion Post #672, Back Mountain Memorial Library and NAPA Auto Parts, Dallas.

He grew to become a masterful songwriter for himself and other artists in the 60s and hbecame a full-fledged star in the 1970s. He has remained a constant musical force in writing
and performing during his more than 50year career, thanks to the countless hit songs he has written, perSedaka formed and produced that continue to inspire other artists and audiences around the world. The Midiri Brothers Septet is composed of brothers Joe (on clarinet and saxophone) and Paul (on the vibraphone and trombone), as well as Dan Tobias (trumpet), Jim Lawlor (drums), Dean Schneider (piano), Ed Wise (bass) and Pat Mercuri (guitar). The orchestra has been hailed by L.A. Jazz

FAMILY
The vendor portion of the expo includes community organizations from around the region, including dance studios, kidfriendly camps and other events parents can learn more about for summer planning. We have 25 vendors this year, said Kristen Angelicola, PTO chairperson of the expo. Its simple for parents to come out its one-stop shopping ahead of time. Bonny Laneski from the Kids at Kings program at Kings College in Wilkes-Barre said the organization has been participating at the Dallas Elementary event for six years. We do educational but fun camps for kids in first through eighth grade, she said. Laneski said the program at Kings has existed for 11 years, but there are still plenty of people who dont know about it. Events like the Family Fun Expo help get the word out about the programs offerings. Parents who work need to find something for kids to do in the summer, she said. We start getting calls in February for when the kids get out of school. Four fifth-grade girls set up shop at the expo to sell their handmade jewelry for a good cause. Gianna Musto, of Dallas, Alicia Vinceloi, of Dallas, Alyssa Angelicola, of Shavertown, and Bailey Tregan, of Dallas worked over three months to create bracelets to raise money for the local SPCA and St. Judes Childrens Hospital. One of our teachers nieces has cancer so we wanted to help, said Musto. More than 230 students par-

ticipated in more than 160 projects at this years science fair, said Deanna Habib, PTO chairperson. Habib said its a fun, voluntary event for the kids who want to learn more on their own, and parents end up learning just as much. One student who was able to measure the iron in cereal his mom just watched and was really interested in how he did it, she said. Habibs daughter, Olivia, made glow-in-the-dark Jell-o for her project. We looked in some science books from home and she decided to do that because its fun and you can eat it, said Habib. One could eat Johanna Kiskas project, too, but theres a little bit more work involved.
The 10-year-old from Shavertown brought in a cage with two of her chickens to the 18th annual fair. She wondered why and how eggs got their shape and color. The size of the chicken determines the size of the egg, and the color of the earlobe determines the chickens egg color, she said. Though her scientific subjects sometimes bite, she enjoys tending to her chickens and has had them all her life. I show some of them and you can win prizes, said Kiska. If you have a hen house, you can
sell the eggs. Cades Linder, 8, of Dallas, made music as her science project she filled jars will varying amounts of water to create music notes. Its a water bottle xylophone, she said. I thought it would be fun for people to play songs. The smaller the amount of water, the higher the sound and the lower the amount of water, the lower the sound. Linder is a lover of all things scientific, mostly because she enjoys taking measurements and figuring things out.
It has been 50 years since Ken Keseys debut novel One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest was first published in 1962. At that time it was received with both criticism and acclaim. Since its publication, there have been popular movie and stage adaptations of the novel. Most movie buffs are familiar with its 1975 film version with Jack Nicholson in the role of R.P. MacMurphy, however Dale Wassermans stage adaptation of Keseys novel received much praise as well. It made its Broadway premiere on November 13, 1964, and has been produced several times since. Most recently, the Steppenwolf Theatre produced a Broadway revival of Wassermans stage adaptation of One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest in 2001. That year it received a Tony Award for Best Play Revival. In March, the Dietrich Theater will be bringing the acclaimed play One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest by Dale Wasserman to Tunkhannock as the culmination of this years Wyoming County Reads project. During its five-day run from March 21 through March 25, all are invited to experience this story of a rowdy misfit who lands in a mental hospital to avoid the work farm. At the hospital he doesnt count on the complex psychological society hes about to upend, the desperate need of the other downtrodden patients for a leader, or the sadistic control of the calm, smiling head nurse. Mischievous Randle P. MacMurphy struggles to discover who really belongs in a mental ward, and realizes that he alone can liberate the patients from the merciless Nurse Ratched. But it may be the ultimate sacrifice. For this production, director,
Cuckoos Nest to be performed by locals
Jennifer Jenkins, the Dietrichs Director of Theatre Arts and Executive Director, leads a cast of16 community-based actors who hail from all over the region including Dalton, Nanticoke, Dallas, Springville, Tunkhannock and Scranton. Many in the cast were excited for an opportunity to be a part of a community-based production. When I received the call that Id gotten the part as Nurse Ratched I felt as I would burst. Now, three weeks in, I am over the moon. Im so lucky to be working with such a talented-fun spirited cast. Many thanks to the Dietrich Theater, said cast member Brenda Wenner said. I really enjoy playing R.P. MacMurphy. He is a very interesting character to play, and with the support of the awesome cast, it should be a fantastic show, said Duryea local, Derek Heppding, who plays the lead. Available show dates and times for the Dietrichs production of One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest include 7 p.m. on Wednesday, March 21, Friday, March 23 and Saturday, March 24 and at 3 p.m. Sunday, March 25. Tickets are $10 each and can be purchased at the Dietrich Theater ticket booth or by calling 570996-1500. According to director Jennifer Jenkins, From government funded drug experiments of the 1960s to the attainment of freedom from an oppressive political machine, Ken Kesey perfectly captured the essence of a changing world, and Dale Wassermans script is atrip of heightened dramatic realism. This production has one of the finest casts to everbeg the question -who is insane and what exactly does that mean?

Local curling enthusiast officiates at nationals

Alison Piatt is an avid curler. Not the hair-twirling kind. Shes more interested in the Olympic sport of curling a game where players hurl stones across sheets of ice towards a targeted area. Its like a slippery version of shuffleboard. Piatt, of Pikes Creek, is so dedicated to the sport, she even volunteered (I had to pay to volunteer, she said) to officiate at the 2012 USA Curling National Championships at the IceWorks Skating Complex in Aston, Pa. It was the first time the sport had been held on the east coast in recent years. Previous events
The timer Alison Piatt, of Pikes Creek, had to man during the 2012 USA National Curling Championships in Aston, Pa. in February. Each draw, or game, lasts 73 minutes, and Piatt had to keep a watchful eye on the clock.
have been held in Fargo, N.D.; Kalamazoo, Mich.; Broomfield, Colo.; and Hibbing, Minn. Because of the closeness of the event, Piatt had planned to volunteer in any capacity she
could until she learned of the officiating courses in January. It was a great opportunity for me to learn the rules and learn more about the sport, said Piatt, who runs the Anthracite Curling Club in Wilkes-Barre and the Misericordia Curling Club. She completed two classes in one day in Philadelphia and had to record hours of service on the ice before she could be certified as an officiator. Little did she know her practical experience would come from the event in which curlers from across the country face off to qualify for the world competition, to be held in Switzerland in March, and the 2014 Olympics. Piatt manned a clock during each 73-minute draw, or game. The clock acts as a record for of-
ficials in the event players commit an error and a draw needs to be repeated. Though I was intensely focused on the clock because you dont want to mess it up, it was great to watch this really high level of excellent curling, she said. Piatt travels often to play her favorite sport most recently she traveled to Rhode Island to visit a fellow curler and participate in a tournament. For nationals, it was a no-brainer for her to get involved. I enjoy officiating, she said. Its another way to be involved in the sport Im so passionate about. She said it was also great to see regional curlers do well at the event players on the mens team from Ardsley, Pa. and
Plainfield, N.J. had qualified for the world championships. Its exciting to see that from a person whos from a small area and has a small curling club that locals will compete at the world competition, she said. Piatt said it was a different kind of experience - shes usually comfortable in an ice rink, but this time she had the chills. I live in northeastern Pa. and I like to curl, so Im use to the cold, she said. But it was so cold like two pairs of socks and two jackets cold. Piatt plans to continue officiating when she can because it will help her learn more about the game she loves. Its both helpful to me and to my club here and it will only make me a better curler, she said.
The Dallas Mountaineer Aquatic Club had a strong showing at the Northeast PA Age Group Swim League District Championships, earning 69 medals (first eighth place) and 48 ribbons (ninth - 16th place). The event was held at the Wilkes-Barre CYC on Feb. 26 (boys) and March 4 (girls).
