Staffers Make

Aaron’s Acres Camp

BY JEFF FALK

It’s a great place for hands-on activities. It’s a great place to take a dip. It’s a great place to get outside and recreate.

New Holland Community Park is a great place to attend summer camp.

“New Holland is an amazing,

welcoming community,” said Risa Paskoff, who’s been the executive director of Aaron’s Acres for 28 years. “(Borough officials) allow us to use the pavilion, the pool, the park. It’s a wonderful partnership. We have community members coming up to us and saying, ‘It’s great to see you again.’ You’re

FamilyFriendly Fun in “Seussical”

BY CAT SHANNON

The colorful world of Dr. Seuss will leap from the page to the stage when Encore! Home School Productions presents “Seussical,” a musical adventure that weaves together some of the author’s most beloved stories and characters.

The show will be performed at The Junction Center, 1875 Junction Road, Manheim, at 7 p.m. on Friday and Saturday, March 27 and 28, and at 2 p.m. on Sunday, March 29.

Narrated by the Cat in the Hat, the musical follows Horton the Elephant, who discovers a tiny speck of dust that holds an entire world known as Whoville. Among the Whos is Jojo, a child sent to military school because of his overactive imagination. Horton soon finds himself facing two big responsibilities: protecting the Whos from those who refuse to believe they exist and caring for an egg that the carefree Mayzie La Bird leaves in his charge. Along the way, Horton endures ridicule, danger, kidnapping and even a trial, while the loyal Gertrude McFuzz continues to believe in him. In the end, the story celebrates the strength of friendship, loyalty, family and community.

“‘Seussical’ is a combination of about 40 different Dr. Seuss books,” explained Elijah Smith, who plays Horton in the show. “The main storyline follows Horton when he hears a Who and also the sequel to the book where he sits on the egg. It also follows the lives of the Whos down on the dust speck and their troubles and trials.”

“Seussical”

Describing the show as “fun and kooky,” Elijah noted that it’s also full of impactful characters.

“Horton is big-hearted, responsible and he tries to help everyone,” he said. “He does what he can for other people.”

Although he’s portraying an elephant and other students are playing animals, their costumes will reflect more humanistic qualities.

“We want the characters to be seen as actual people, rather than as animals,” he said, adding that the costumes will hint at the animal being portrayed.

rhyme,” he said. “It’s actually easier to memorize lines when they rhyme, so that’s been great.”

Noah Arnold, who plays the Cat in the Hat, said while it’s been easy to learn his role, the rhyming is also challenging at times.

“The show is all music, so you have to say your lines over music and with a certain rhythm,” he shared.

including the Hempfield, Elizabethtown and Donegal school districts.

Noah said that while Seussical may seem silly on the surface, with quirky characters such as Yertle the Turtle and the Grinch, it’s actually full of important messages and themes.

Youth Conservation School Scheduled

The Lancaster County Youth Conservation School will take place from Sunday, July 19, to Friday, July 24, celebrating 47 years of education. The program is open to students ages 14 to 16.

The Lancaster County Conservation District (LCCD) and local sportsmen’s clubs will offer the weeklong summer field school focusing on outdoor activities and the conservation of natural resources. Students will reside at the school with tents and cots to demonstrate low-impact camping at the Northern Lancaster County Fish and Game Protection Association, 180 Forest Road, Denver.

Preparing to present “Seussical” has been a lot of fun, Elijah said, especially learning to speak like Dr. Seuss.

“The entire show is in

“It’s been fun, but it’s also been a learning experience. Most of the show is sung, but there are spoken lines in between songs but they’re still spoken over music, so you have to say it to the rhythm of the music.”

He described his character as “fun and mischievous,” noting that as the narrator, his character pops in here and there throughout the musical.

“This character has been hard to portray, because he’s so well-known,” Noah said. “I’ve studied the character in books, movies and other productions. It’s been fun to play, but it’s also a challenge to live up to.”

Encore’s production of “Seussical” will feature homeschooled students from 16 school districts,

“One of the themes is, ‘A person’s a person, no matter how small,’” he said. “We all matter. The show is also about living your life and being yourself and having fun.”

Elijah emphasized that audiences will enjoy seeing actors who fully embrace their characters onstage, and he’s excited to present some really big musical numbers.

“It’s a hilarious show, very entertaining,” he said. “It’s also got very touching stories with great morals.”

Added Noah, “‘Seussical’ is very family-friendly. It’s big. It’s colorful. It’s bright. All of the songs are amazing, and the dancing is great. And there’s a lot of great messages behind the stories.”

To purchase tickets, visit www.itickets.com/ events/485358.

Students will gain knowledge about wildlife and conservation, leadership experience, and communication skills.

breaking down barriers and you’re connecting to make a stronger community.”

New Holland Community Park, 400 E. Jackson St., New Holland, will again provide the setting for Aaron’s Acres’ annual summer camp, the program that resulted in the founding of the organization dedicated to serving individuals with disabilities and their families.

This summer will mark the fourth year that the park has hosted Aaron’s Acres’ summer camp.

The summer camp program consists of three two-week sessions, from Monday, June 15, through Friday, June 26; from Monday, July 6, through Friday, July 17; and from Monday, July 20, through Friday, July 31. The sessions offer full-day and half-day options.

Interested individuals can register at www.aarons acres.org by Tuesday, March 31.

Among the activities and opportunities that campers and staff members can enjoy are daily swimming, music therapy, arts and crafts, a petting zoo, a magician, a ventriloquist, nature activities and special theme days. The only activity not conducted at the park is the camp’s field trip to Greystone Manor Therapeutic Riding Center.

“I think the best part is seeing the staff and camper interactions,” said Paskoff.

“I love seeing the smiles and joy. So many parents say they don’t see those smiles all the time. The last day of camp, the counselors and campers are crying, and it’s so powerful.”

Aaron’s Acres summer camp is designed for individuals between ages 5 and 21 with cognitive, behavior and medical disabilities. The camp mostly serves individuals from across Lancaster County, but also from Dauphin, Berks, Lebanon, Perry and Cumberland counties.

“The atmosphere is so positive,” said Paskoff. “We celebrate everything kids do - the kid who goes into the water, the kid who goes on the horse, the kid who does something they never did before. There’s this positivity. It’s a magical place because the staff is engaged with the kids and the kids are engaged with us.”

Exhibit to Open at Mulberry Art Studios

Sandy Leonard, who was Mulberry Art Studios’ first assistant decades ago, is returning to the gallery with her own collection of artwork. The aptly named “Reflections on 60 Years of Creativity” will include originals and limited-edition giclee prints. Leonard works in oils using a palette knife, and in acrylic, pencil and pastels.

Leonard graduated from York Academy of Art. Continuing education includes studying at the Student Art League of New York and with Kent Carson of California and Barb Pappendick, a local pastel artist. An award-winning artist herself, Leonard has exhibited in solo, group and national traveling shows.

“They’re kids who are hoping to have fun and looking to do something over the summer,” said Paskoff. “Some may not have been accepted by other programs. You have kids who want to be like everybody else, and at Aaron’s Acres, they can be like everybody else.”

“They’re developing their communication and social skills,” Paskoff continued. “During the school year, they’re making strides in these areas, and we’re helping them to not regress. They’re learning transition, and they’re having new experiences. There are so many advantages to summer camp.”

About 120 individuals are expected to attend the summer camps. Because Aaron’s Acres maintains 1-to-1 or 1-to-2 staff member-to-camper ratios, the program is limited in the number of participants it can accept.

Last year, the waiting list for Aaron’s Acres summer camps was about 90 kids.

“We don’t accept kids until we have the staff,” said Paskoff. “There’s a tremendous need for this type of program over the

summer. The summer camp program has to happen for these families. We need the community to help us make it happen. Parents can breathe when they know their kids are going to Aaron’s Acres.”

That interaction between counselors and campers can produce experiences that are both more enjoyable and more impactful.

“Because there’s that low ratio, kids get personal attention, and the child feels really safe and secure,” Paskoff said. “They get individual attention, and the counselors aren’t overwhelmed. There’s a lot of help, support and guidance. The staff is what makes this program special. If we don’t have the staff, we’re not doing it the Aaron’s Acres way.”

Aaron’s Acres, which recently moved its headquarters to 121 Walnut Hill Road, Millersville, was formed from a summer camp conducted at the Lancaster Jewish Community Center in 1998. Today, the summer camp is one of nine programs Aaron’s Acres offers for individuals with disabilities between ages 5 and 40.

Church to Host Easter Celebration, Egg Hunt

As a student, Leonard had to create her color palette using only the primary colors, red, blue and yellow. She continues to use this practice today.

“Reflections on 60 Years of Creativity” will open with a First Friday reception on April 3 from 5 to 8 p.m. and will run throughout the month of April. Mulberry Art Studios is located at 21 N. Mulberry St., Lancaster. For more information, call the gallery at 717-295-1949.

Grace Baptist Church of Lancaster, 1899 Marietta Ave., Lancaster, will hold an Easter celebration and glow egg hunt on Saturday, March 28, at 6:30 p.m.

The Easter celebration will offer activities for children up to sixth grade, including games, prizes, face painting and snacks. New this year is

that the egg hunt will be after dark with glowing eggs.

Admission is free; no registration is required. Parents should stay with their children throughout the evening. For more information about the event and other Easter activities and services, visit www.gbclancaster.org.

EASTER

“People should come and help support Hempfield softball, because in the long run, it’s going to have a great deal of positive impact on the softball team, and it’s good for the community to have a team be successful,” junior captain Rose Wendel said. “It’s really fun to play bingo, so you can win some prizes, you can win a Yeti basket, a poppy basket, and so much more, and I think it would really bring families together, the community together, to help support one another.”

The get-together is

put on by the Hempfield Softball Booster Club, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit group of parent volunteers who support the team by fundraising, organizing events like team dinners and team bonding, and making sure the girls have what they need for a successful season, fundraising chair Mindy Reese said.

“The Hempfield softball program needs support from the community to help give our players the best opportunities,” Reese added. “Proceeds from the bingo will help with equipment, uniforms, travel costs, and team expenses that are not fully covered by the school.”

The booster club is seeking local businesses or

individuals to sponsor the event. Anyone who has questions or is interested in sponsorships can email Reese at mindy.hempfield mom@gmail.com.

In addition to the bingo, the Hempfield Softball Booster Club holds a series of small fundraisers and dine-outs throughout the year. There will be a Black Knight Bash Senior Scholarship 14U Rec softball tournament on Saturday and Sunday, May 2 and 3, which will provide a scholarship for all graduating seniors.

The money generated is put to good use. Senior captain Lily Ashton stated that the booster club assists with getting lunches and snacks for people for bus rides,

supports team dinners, and helps with making sure there is enough money so that the program can buy equipment if the school can’t provide it. “They play a very big role in the Hempfield softball program,” Lily added. “We all appreciate them so much, because without them, it definitely would be hard to run a softball team and the fun things outside of that.”

Senior captain Kiara Rodriguez said the Black Knights players look forward to the bingo event. “We help out throughout the entire event, but we also participate in the event, too, because it’s really fun,” she said. “It’s bonding, too.”

Sierra Club Seeking Grant Proposals

The Sierra Club - Lancaster Group will accept proposals for the next round of its Green Project grants through Tuesday, March 31. Lancaster County organizations with projects that promote sustainability, expand environmental awareness, and improve green infrastructure are encouraged to apply.

The program annually awards grants of up to $500 to charitable,

educational, or business entities that demonstrate a commitment to the Sierra Club’s mission of “exploring, enjoying, and protecting the planet” in Lancaster County. Over the past decade, 110 organizations have received these grants, supporting a wide range of environmental conservation projects.

Before applying for a grant, organizations should consider how their projects relate to ecological preservation or education. Projects may focus on topics such as storm water management, rain gardens and rain barrels, native plantings, pollinator plants, organic gardens, composting programs, and hands-on learning. The Lancaster Group will offer its expertise and labor to support the projects that are awarded grants.

Proposals should be emailed to jimsmeenan@ gmail.com and include the organization’s name, mailing address, and phone number; highlights of the project; and a 501(c)(3) status letter if the submission is from a 501(c)(3) group.

Winners will be announced on Earth Day, Wednesday, April 22, and soon after, a list of the awardees will be posted at www.lancastersierra club.org.

The grant program has been supported by funds raised primarily through the Lancaster Group’s annual Polar Bear 5K Trail Run/Hike and from funds received through its participation in Lancaster’s annual ExtraGive. For more details, contact Jim Meenan at 717-475-0586 or jimsmeenan@gmail .com.

CBF Posts Photography Contest

Photographers of all skill levels are invited to submit their images from throughout Pennsylvania’s portion of the Chesapeake Bay Watershed for the annual Save the Bay Photo Contest sponsored by the Chesapeake Bay Foundation (CBF).

Photo submissions should illustrate the beauty of the Chesapeake Bay and its tributaries, as well as the plants, animals, and people relying on it. Images depicting water, wildlife, recreation, farms, and flora will be considered.

In last year’s Save the Bay Photo Contest, the photograph “River’s Bend” by George Kurzik of Hellam won the top prize from judges. His entry captured the view from Chiques Rock in Lancaster County overlooking the bend in the Susquehanna River toward Accomac in York County in 2023.

The deadline for submis -

sions is Friday, March 27. Photos will be narrowed down by a CBF panel based on subject matter, composition, focus, lighting, uniqueness, and impact. Members of the public will then be able to vote for

their favorite image in the Viewer’s Choice Gallery from Monday, April 6, to Friday, April 24.

Winners will receive a one-year CBF membership and a cash prize. Winning photographs will also be

featured on CBF’s website, social media, 2027 calendar, and award-winning Save the Bay magazine. More information and submission instructions can be found at www.cbf .org/photocontest.

Millersville University to Host Science Olympiad

Millersville University will host the Pennsylvania Central Region Science Olympiad on Saturday, March 28. Fourteen middle school teams and 25 high school teams from Adams, Cumberland, Dauphin, Franklin, Huntingdon, Juniata, Lancaster, Lebanon, Mifflin, Perry, Snyder, Union and York counties will compete.

The public is welcome to watch the events that will take place in Pucillo

Gymnasium, 105 Pucillo Drive, Millersville, from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. These events will include Boomilever, Bungee Drop, Electric Vehicle, Helicopter, Hovercraft, Mission Possible, Robot Tour, and Scrambler. Spectators will see devices - built and tested by students - accomplishing a range of tasks.

Science Olympiad features elementary, middle school, and high school

students competing as teams of 15. They are challenged by 23 STEM-related events that span biology, earth science, chemistry, physics, engineering, and inquiry. Students usually work in pairs building devices for testing at tournaments, studying for core knowledge challenges, and preparing for rigorous hands-on lab experiments. This work is designed to prepare them for contributing to

a team in a future STEM career.

The top seven highest-scoring teams in both Division B (grades six to nine) and Division C (grades nine to 12) from the tournament at Millersville will be invited to compete in the state tournament on Saturday, April 25, at Penn State Altoona. For more information on the tournament, visit https://blogs.millersville .edu/musciolym.
