With a new executive director, the months-old Back Mountain Chamber of Commerce is growing membership and gaining a strong foothold in the Back Mountain community and beyond. Clare Parkhurst was recently hired as the chambers part-time executive director, but she said its more of a full-time job.
sense of community amongst business owners and others in the region. Theres just a perception that a chamber is more of a legitimate (organization), she said. Parkhurst said the business
association began in 1992, and likened the start of the chamber to a 20th anniversary celebration for Back Mountain businesses involved. Chip Morgan, co-founder of the chamber and owner of Wilkes-Barre Bookkeeping in
Dallas Township, said the idea for the chamber came at a time when the Back Mountain Business Association was losing members. We had 110 (members), and they were loyal members, but at one time we had over 200 members, said Morgan. Morgan said the business association was made possible solely by volunteers, and many of the same people were doing the work, in addition to running their own businesses.
It was the same people over and over and over again, and like any organization, it gets tiring, said Morgan. Though the chamber aims to remain mostly volunteer-based, Parkhurst said the new organization can offer much more with an executive director and assigned committee members. Ive got a lot of support, said Parkhurst. (The committees) take a lot of responsibility

Scouts from Cub Scout Pack 232 dressed in full uniform spent hours at the annual Pinewood Derby on March 10 racing boats, frogs, cars and one race most other scout packs dont have - stick horses. The Lion Cubs, an experimental Scout group started within the pack about three years ago, galloped around the Gate of Heaven gym with their self-decorated horses at the event. However, that could have been the last time the horses make it out the gate. Trish Ash, a Cub Scout committee member, said the National Boy Scout Council is considering disbanding the Lion Cubs. The littlest Scouts dont earn any badges, but the program gives the youngsters a chance to learn what being a Scout is all about. They learn the Scout principles, like respect and faith, and they have fun getting a little piece of the Scouts, she said. The stick horse race is a rarity, said Ash, because the group itself is rare. She isnt aware of any other Lion Cubs locally, which makes the Scout pack even more special. Its a cool thing that helps the kids continue on in the Scouts, said Ash. The tykes only raced for a few minutes on their horses on the weaving obstacle course, and

they were trying to beat their own times, not each other. Its a unique race, and it keeps them active, said Lion Cub leader Elsie Ryan, of Dallas. She said she got her 5-yearold son Joey involved because children can learn so much at such a young age, and she felt the organization would teach him about important subjects like community service and citizenship. At this age, theyre like sponges, said Ryan. Heather Vieczorek, of Noxen, got her son Joshua involved in the Lion Cubs because she had other children in Scouts, but the group has given Joshua an outlet for helping others and learning camaraderie. His brother was a Lion Cub last year, she said. Its a good organization and it gives the kids something to do. It gives them a taste of Scouting. Vieczoreks other son moved up to the status of Tiger Cub, and he spent the afternoon racing frogs. The wooden frogs have a hole

Dallas High School students Chris LaFratte, left, and Amber Habib are given a protein model to replicate at the annual Science Olympiad held at Penn State Wilkes-Barre.
Collin MacMullen, 12, spent his first time at the Regional Science Olympiad competition enjoying not just the various science projects, but the sense of freedom that came along with it. I like being able to not be taken by the hand to every event, said the Lake-Lehman junior high school student from Shavertown. You get to do your
own thing. Students from 52 schools from throughout northeastern Pennsylvania got to experience that same sense of freedom at the 2012 Regional Science Olympiad competition at the Penn State Wilkes-Barre campus March 7. More than 750 students, including students from Lake-Lehman and Dallas middle and high schools, competed in contests such as Compute This, Microbe Mission, Keep the Heat and others.
MacMullen was most interested in the Keep the Heat competition because he and his teammates spent quite a bit of time preparing. The object of the experiment is to devise a way to keep a beaker of warm water insulated. Its tested by keeping track of the waters temperature over a period of time. The Lake-Lehman junior high team created a cube and stuffed it with wool. Team members also created a stand for the beaker
to keep it surrounded by the soft fibers. It kept the beaker snug and the wool was compacted around it, which kept the water heated, said 12-year-old Marina Malcolm, of Shavertown. Malcolm joined Science Olympiad because it enabled her to meet new people while exploring a subject she finds interesting. I like science because just the

Two municipalities in the Back Mountain were awarded grant money Tuesday from gaming fund revenues for projects that will benefit the entire community. One of the big-ticket items to receive funding is the Back Mountain Community Partnerships plans for a regional emergency management center $975,000 was allocated toward the project. Vice Chairman John Wilkes Jr. said the project wouldnt have been able to get off the ground without any financial support, though the group initially requested about $1,229,000.
Were absolutely tickled with the generosity we did get, he said. Without the amount of money we did receive, it wasnt going to go anywhere. The center is planned to be located at a former medical building off Route 118 in Lehman Township. Dallas Fire & Ambulance Inc. purchased the building in 2010 with the hopes of eventually building a similar center. The project also includes the construction of a pole building on the 9-acre property. The space will be used for equipment and medical supply storage, partnership and other civic organization meetings, emergency responder training, sleeping quarters for evacuees and a control center for the Back Mountain Regional Emer-

What: The Seventh Annual Harveys Lake Polar Bear Plunge Where: Garrity Realty, Pole 89, Lakeside Dr., Harveys Lake When: Noon on Saturday, March 24 Cost: Minimum donation is $10. Donors of $50 will get a t-shirt. All proceeds benefit the American Cancer Society.

Lake-Lehman High School juniors Bethany Williams, left, of Harveys Lake, Cassie Stevens, center, of Harveys Lake, and Sami Sabol, of Shavertown, are running the Polar Bear Plunge next weekend.
The seventh year for the Polar Bear Plunge at Harveys Lake might not be as chilly as one would expect. Three juniors from Lake-Lehman High School are hoping the warmer weather this month may increase participation in the annual event to be held on March 24, which raises money for the American Cancer Society as part of the girls senior project. In previous years, they had to chip out the ice before people could jump in, said 17-year-old Bethany Williams, of Harveys Lake. Were hoping turnout will
be better since it wont be that cold. The Polar Bear Plunge takes place every March at the Garrity Realty dock off Lakeside Drive. Groups of 10 to 12 people make a minimum donation of $10 each to take a dip in the icy lake. The event also features prizes for the kookiest plunging costume and
most donations as well as basket raffles. Williams, 16-year-old Cassie Stevens and 17-year-old Sami Sabol decided to take on the project after participating in the tradition when they were younger. Its all about the adrenaline,

The Dallas School Board tabled a motion to eliminate a maintenance staff position at a meeting Monday evening. Board member Maureen Matiska made the motion, stating she felt the maintenance department has suffered more cutbacks than other departments and the new high school building requires more staff members. Weve cut maintenance more than any other department in the years Ive been on the board, she said. We have more school to take care of, we have a lot of land to take care of, and I really have my doubts as to whether or not they can do an adequate job with less people. Superintendent Frank Galicki said a maintenance employee resigned in February and administrators wanted to see how the department could be restructured to avoid filling the open position. He said many positions have been expanded to include additional work without compensation. Everyone in the district is working additional jobs, especially with the economy and the way it is, he said. Supervisor of Buildings and Grounds Mark Kraynack said the department will have just three maintenance personnel left for the entire district if the position is eliminated. This does not include custodial staff maintenance personnel include mechanics, laborers and groundskeepers. Im going to have trouble theres no doubt, he said. As a

team effort, thats where Im following suit. Business Manager Grant Palfey said everyone has felt the effects of budgetary constraints. He has been involved in transportation and security, and Dallas Elementary School Principal Thomas Traver has coordinated bus routes and enrollment. Palfey said the most important part of dealing with financial woes is not letting them impact the students. Board Vice President Bruce Goeringer thinks the board should consider hiring more maintenance staff to complement the size and services needed in tending in the new building. Anybody whos built a big house knows building it is the easy part, he said. Kraynack said he would provide a presentation about his departments needs for the April board meeting. The board also approved 13 change orders totaling more than $242,000 for the high school construction project. Bob Nesbit of Crabtree, Rohrbaugh and Associates, the project architect, said the majority of the costs were attributed to an asphalt escalation clause.
The clause is an agreement the district has with Charles Corby & Sons Excavating to pay for the cost of asphalt and other materials during paving. Paving was completed last fall for the opening of the building. Nesbit said there are still a few pending issues at the school, including the quality of the logos on the gym floor, explaining that the company that installed the flooring did not prepare it for the application of the logos, leaving them to look four or five years old. He said the flooring will need to be completed during the summer when students arent on campus. Nesbit also said there are lingering issues with the auditorium dressing rooms, the stage curtains, the art classrooms and other areas.

KINGSTON TOWNSHIP
The board of supervisors voted to join the Back Mountain Regional Emergency Management Agency on Wednesday. The agency, which also includes Dallas Borough and Dallas, Jackson and Lehman townships, was created in late 2010 as a formal agreement between emergency responders to work together in the event of emergencies. Chairman James Reino Jr. said the board wanted to ensure emergency responders in Kingston Township had input about the venture before signing any documents. Joining will only improve nec- See EMA, Page 13
essary communication and improve cooperation between the towns to ensure better service to citizens during emergency situations, he said. Reino said there was always intent to join, but the meeting between all appropriate emergency officials within the township happened just recently. The board also voted on several motions related to upcoming spring and summer events in the township, including the yard waste pick up, summer recreation program and spring road inspection. The spring yard waste pick up will be held April 16-20. The township manager was au-

The sinking of the Titanic happened 100 years ago in April 1912 and is an event in history that continues to fascinate us even today. This month at the Back Mountain Memorial Library, in commemoration of this event, 10-year old Ian Atkinson will display his Titanic collection. Ian has been collecting for three years and has put together models of the ship with help from his dad. He said his Nana bought one of the model kits while traveling in Germany and carried it gently across the Alps and then held it on the plane ride home. Ians interest in the story of the Titanic began when a friend in first grade talked to him about it. His favorite item in the collection is the Titanic book by Robert Ballard. Ian likes it best because it has a lot of information, nice artwork and some photographs. Ian is a fourth-grade student at Dallas Elementary School and lives in Wyoming with his parents, Duane and Karen Atkinson, his younger sister, Jessica, and their cat, Henry.

MOMENTS IN TIME
The History Channel On March 31, 1889, the Eiffel Tower is dedicated in Paris. Gustave Eiffels tower was greeted with skepticism from critics, who argued that it would be structurally unsound. Within a few decades the tower came to be regarded as an architectural masterpiece. On March 26, 1937, Americas first monument to a comic strip hero is unveiled in Crystal City, Texas. The 6-foot-tall, brightly colored concrete statue of Popeye was unveiled in Popeye Park during the citys second annual Spinach Festival. On March 27, 1964, the strongest earthquake in American history, measuring 8.4 on the Richter scale, slams southern Alaska, creating a deadly tsunami. Some 125 people were killed and thousands injured. The tidal wave devastated towns along the Gulf of Alaska and caused carnage in British Columbia, Canada; Hawaii and the West Coast of the United States. On March 28, 1979, the worst accident in the history of the U.S. nuclear power industry begins when a pressure valve in the Unit-2 reactor at Three Mile Island in Pennsylvania fails to close. As engineers struggled to understand what had happened, the reactor came within less than an hour of a complete meltdown.

said Williams. Sabol plunged in the past just to be able to say she did. Its just a crazy thing to do, she said. The founder of the event, Allison Boris, was a member of the Lake-Lehman swim team and started the tradition in memory of her father, Buddy, of Harveys

off my plate. Morgan said the chamber initially did a vast search for an executive director, but found qualified candidates from out of the area that might not be able to meet the needs of the community. They didnt have the context and didnt have the love for the Back Mountain, said Morgan. That was huge. Parkhurst applied for the position because of her own ties to the community she was born and raised in the area, met her husband in the Back Mountain and set up her home and business in the community. It was kind of a natural fit, said Morgan.
Parkhursts main focus is membership and members are pouring in from all over the area. Morgan said the organization has members from outside the Back Mountain for the first time ever. Weve got new members from Swoyersville, Bear Creek, Wilkes-Barre, Pittston its not just Back Mountain business members, he said. We have to be a community, even though theyre outside of our geographic jurisdiction. The chamber is also working to improve relations with the community. Morgan said the Back Mountain Chamber of Commerce is the first in the country to include governments, schools, cultural venues, churches and civic organizations. Its not just commerce to commerce, said Morgan. People are spending money elsewhere when they should be
spending it right here in the Back Mountain. Morgan said the chamber plans to offer community surveys to understand why families are doing their grocery and other shopping outside the area. The feedback will help improve business in the area, he said. Now the organization is busy planning its first business expo as a chamber at Misericordia University on April 18. The group partnered with the Back Mountain Historical Associations bi-annual program, which will be about the former Hansons Amusement Park that was located in Harveys Lake. Morgan said the idea was to draw more people to both events. He said there are plans to offer food throughout the expo that would have been offered at Hansons, like French fries, pizza and cotton candy.

the event of an emergency, not just the six member municipalities. There are no borders in an emergency, he said. The partnership consists of Dallas Borough and Dallas, Franklin, Jackson, Kingston and Lehman townships. The project was developed after the series of natural disasters throughout the northeast, including tropical storms Irene and Lee. After the events of last year, we saw a huge potential for the Back Mountain to be severed off from the rest of the county during emergencies, said Partnership Chairman James Reino Jr. This will make disasterhandling a much easier func-
tion and well have a much more rapid deployment of resources. Harveys Lake Borough received $78,220 to renovate an unused recreation center for police department use. Council President Larry Radel said no solid plans have been put into place for the project, and there were no plans to pursue it if the grant money wasnt awarded. Radel said the plan is to renovate the building and move the police headquarters to the site, located near Lake-Noxen Elementary School, a Little League field and the municipal garage. It kind of makes sense to relocate the police department to an area that requires surveillance and makes it a safer environment for children, said Radel. Mayor Clarence Hogan said the building itself is made of
cinder blocks and concrete, which will also provide a safer environment for officers. The building theyre in now, its served us very well, but its just not safe enough to have the office in there, in a wooden structure, he said. It is more ideal to move them into the (recreation) building. He said much of the work needed to complete the project will be on the interior, noting the building recently had a roof replacement. Hogan said the building was constructed in the late 1970s and has been vacant for about a year. Hogan and Radel said the building will offer a better work environment for officers, including interrogation rooms, upgraded facilities and other perks. Radel said the borough is on a tight budget already, but he hopes the project will get off the ground before summer.
ven right, you might be able to prove it wrong, she said. Jean Lipki, Lake-Lehman gifted education teacher and Science Olympiad advisor, said the program allows young students to learn certain life skills while learning about scientific principles. I think its great it teaches them creativity, time management, teamwork, stress management, competition, she said. Lipski said the aspect she looks most forward to is not any particular event, like Bottle Rockets or Thermodynamics its listening to the younger kids reactions to the day. Its fun for them because its so exuberant and they get to interact with other kids on a college campus, she said. Lipski said the two Lake-Lehman teams had prepped for the Olympiad since December with the help of science and shop teachers at the school. Dustin Zeiler, 17, of Dallas, was a newcomer to the event a friend on the Lake-Lehman team needed his help because Zeiler knew how to play an instrument. For the Sounds of Music event, participants had to create musical instruments and play them at the competition. Zeiler plays the trumpet, but he ended up making a clay oboe. We tried to make an ocarina, but it didnt work out, he said. Zeiler was more laid back during the day and said the event was a nice break from school. Dallas High School team member Amber Habib, 15, of Dallas, was a bit more on edge during the competition while watching her teammates perform and getting ready for her own events Forensics, Gravity Vehicle, and Protein Model. Im equally nervous for all of them, said Habib. Some of

them are harder than others. But my team is doing well. Habib has been been involved in Science Olympiad for the last three years, and she enjoys the
challenge of the various events that her team prepares for all year. We work hard but it pays off in the end, she said.

The sailboats are placed into aisles filled with water and Scouts blow on the sails to make them move. The race cars are for the Webelos Scouts. The cars are placed on a steep wooden racetrack and released, allowing racers to sit back and watch their cars fly. The horses might be the most active part of the derby.

In other news, the board Approved a request made by Pennsylvania American Water Co. to waive fees for the pavement cuts needed for its project on South Pioneer Warden avenues. Reino said this is because the company has agreed to completely repave the road from curb to curb at no cost to the township. Approved Back Mountain Harvest Assemblys application to hold a fireworks display and God and Country Tribute from 5 to 10 p.m. on July 1. Board member Gary Mathers said the $150 application fee and $1,500 deposit for public safety should be waived because the organizationprovides this service free to the township. Reino said when the organization files an application, the board can choose to donate to the church to help cover its costs. Mathers said future boards may not be as willing to do so.

Township Manager Kathleen Sebastian said the board isnt always able to donate the funds back to the church to help defray those costs its dependent upon the townships financial situation. Opened the bids for spring cleanup containers, which will be awarded at the April 11 meeting. The following companies made bids: Waste Management of Dunmore, CCI Waste and Recycling of Dunmore, Stell Enterprises of Plains Township, UnitedSanitationNetworkofDuryea and JP Mascaros of Audubon.

The board will hold a public hearing at 7:30 p.m. April 11 to discuss proposed changes to the alarm ordinance.
