Blue Streaks Harness Power of Success BY JEFF FALK
A
thletic success comes in all shapes, forms and sizes. Every team, student-athlete and coach defines success differently. The Manheim Township girls’ soccer team measures success in effort, accountability, relationships and championships. The Blue Streaks also assess success in historical terms. “Obviously, we had a talented group of players who put in a lot of hard work,” said Clayton Suydam, who recently completed his first season as Manheim Township’s head coach after serving the program for a number of years as an assistant. “This team was really selfless. They thoroughly enjoyed celebrating each other. I think we tried to strike the right balance between working really hard and having fun. (The players) were way better when they were a little goofy and comfortable. Almost all

Everybody deserves a place to call their own. Everybody needs a home. Servant Stage’s new home is also the nonprofit’s first. Not only are Servant Stage’s new digs a product of growth, the location is also a space where it can continue to grow. “It’s almost hard to put into words,” said Johnathan Bauer, the founder and executive director of Servant Stage. “It hits every once in a while. This is a home. Like, ‘Wow, this is for real.’ It hasn’t fully sunk in yet. There are a lot of firsts in this place that are really special.” Following 12 years of serving the Lancaster County

Representing the People BY JEFF FALK
Steve Mentzer is a 69-year-old resident of Manheim Township who attends Lives Changed by Christ Church in Lancaster. Steve and his wife, Sally, are the parents of two grown children and the grandparents of four, and when son Mike and daughter Lynn were growing up, pets were part of their household. A man of the people, Steve has been a Pennsylvania state representative for 13 years, and he’s been elected and re-elected a total of seven times. “The general philosophy of a Pennsylvania state representative is that you represent your constituents in matters of laws and budgets,” said Steve. “We try to get a feel for our constituents when we vote on issues. We’ve got to weigh each issue. You want to consider your constituents the best you can. You want to be available to your constituents if they ask questions. We attend a lot of community events because those are the things you want to make a priority because you want to be with your constituents.” Steve is one of 203 representatives in Pennsylvania’s state house. He represents more than 65,000 residents who live in parts or all of Manheim Township, Conestoga Township, East Lampeter Township, West Lampeter Township, Manor Township and Pequea Township. “My district has some rural areas, farming areas, a little bit of suburban areas and some commercial areas,” said Steve. “I would say my district is very diverse. The district I represent isn’t considered a needy district. My people come to the office when they have an issue with the state. The most important thing to my people is that they

Servant Stage from pg 1 community through theater and the performing arts, Servant Stage moved into its new headquarters at 1842 William Penn Way, Lancaster, in East Lampeter Township in October. Up until that point, Servant Stage had been doing the best it could with what it had, while the mission around it was flourishing. “It’s so nice to have our own space,” said Bauer. “It’s fun every day. It’s nice to be able to have a conversation and not have to reply to an email. Having no space for so many years, you get used to it. A lot of it was working from home. We were storing sets and props in basements, garages and barns. Efficiency is a huge part of what we do. We were doing so many shows that it wasn’t sustainable.” Ser vant Stage’s new home base is eight rooms and 8,500 square feet in size, 5,000 of which is dedicated to a workshop, warehouse and storage space and 3,500 of which is being used as offices and for conferences and meetings. The space can also accommodate smaller auditions and rehearsals for the more than 15 productions and 190 performances that the organization has been staging each year. “We have been looking and actively exploring spaces for a workshop and theater for like six or seven years now,” said Bauer. “Back in May, we came across this place in Greenfield, and our Realtor connected us with the landlord. We knew from the very first visit that it checked all of the boxes. The lease was signed in a month or so. This kind of fell into our lap.” Prior to its recent move, Servant Stage was practicing and rehearsing for performances at Lancaster Alliance Church, at 210 Pitney Road, Lancaster, not far from its new home. Depending upon the demands of each production, some of those rehearsals will continue to be conducted at the church. “ The focus of the mission is on ser vice,” said Bauer, a resident of Strasburg. “The idea of
using the performing arts and theater to serve the community, that’s been the mission from the very beginning and that’s why we chose that name. We love theater and the community, and there’s both a why and a how behind it.” “With our mission of bringing shows into the community, we’ve been n o m a d i c ,” c o n t i n u e d Bauer. “Everyone on the team is very flexible and good at problem-solving. We’ve been able to make it grow so much, but we’ve grown so much. The amount of programming we’re doing is growing, and our staff is growing. You need a space for it. It’s definitely long overdue.” Servant Stage is projecting to present 20 productions for both adults and youths with more than 220 total performances in 2026. The traveling troupe’s performances will be staged at high schools, churches and retirement communities across Lancaster County. “When you factor in all the rehearsals, it’s a lot,” said Bauer. “It’s people wanting to be a part of it. We’ve seen 300 people at auditions for performances that have had 150 spots. That’s why we keep adding productions. We keep getting requests for performances. There are certainly plenty of challenges, but we haven’t gotten to a place where we’ve had to cut back on shows because we don’t have performing places.” “(Operating our own theater) is definitely a dream as well,” added Bauer. “We would love to have a theater to do these shows. It’s still a dream down the road that would make more performances possible, but it’s one step at a time.” Servant Stage, which is funded through freewill offerings received at performances, business partnerships, sponsorships, individual donations and grant funding, is operated by seven full-time employees, six part-timers and a host of volunteers.

Representing from pg 1 don’t want government intrusion.” As part of his duties as a state representative, Steve works about 45 hours a week, sometimes more and sometimes less depending upon the times of the year and the issues facing his constituents. He spends about 40% of that time in Harrisburg, where he maintains an office and chairs the House Aging and Older Adult Services Committee and is a member of the House Intergovernmental Affairs and Operations Committee. In addition, Steve attends business openings and community meetings, and he conducts about three interactive town halls each year. “It’s extremely rewarding when you can help a constituent navigate the Pennsylvania bureaucracy or just help your constituents,” said Steve, a 1969 graduate of Manheim Township High School. “But you need to be thick-skinned. Any
public official is going to have to learn to take criticism. When you’re voting the way you think your constituents want you to, there are people who aren’t going to agree, and they will let you know about it.” Steve maintains a District 97 office inside the West Lampeter Township municipal building, 852 Village Road, Lancaster. The office is staffed by two full-time employees and a part-timer, and he also receives assistance from an executive director with his work on the House Aging and Older Adult Services Committee in Harrisburg. “Two hundred and fifty years ago, our founding fathers came up with a system that allowed for self-rule, which is very, very difficult and very messy,” said Steve. “I think most people would agree that it’s the best form of government we have. Politics are part of the government that allows self-rule. If I don’t like that term, I can

find another job.” After graduating from Manheim Township High School, Steve attended Elizabethtown College for two years. Prior to being elected as a state representative in 2012, Steve spent part of his professional life as an entrepreneur and in the investment industry for 23 years, before becoming involved in local politics. “I decided I wanted to spend time giving back to the community,” said Steve. “When I was in that transition period, I got involved in local politics. It kind of morphed into (public
ser vice), and someone asked me to run for Manheim Township treasurer. Basically, (public service) happened because I was involved in trying to make the community better. It’s a job now; I’m compensated for it. But if someone asked me in my 30s if I’d be an elected official, I’d have said no.” “I’m 69, and everybody gets a little wiser as they get older,” continued Steve. “I’ve become better at dealing with criticism, without doing it in a negative way. You just can’t make everyone happy.”

MT Girls’ Soccer from pg 1 successful teams like playing together.” T hat chemistr y, culture and leadership that Suydam was referring to resulted in a District Three Class AAAA championship for the Blue Streaks earlier this fall. During the afternoon hours of Nov. 1 at Central Dauphin Middle School’s Landis Field in Harrisburg, Manheim Township shut out Mechanicsburg 2-0 in the Class AAAA title tilt. Following a scoreless first half, Elaine Warfel scored the championship-winning goal for Township in the match’s 66th minute, before teammate Hannah Kavanaugh notched an insurance
tally a minute later. Three days later, Manheim Township’s campaign came to a 21-3 conclusion with a 3-0 home loss to Central Bucks East in the opening round of the PIAA Class AAAA tournament. “We knew (Mechanicsburg) was a really good team because a lot of their girls play club (soccer) together,” said Suydam. “What we did so well in that game was manage their pressure. We kept the ball a lot. We stayed really patient. I felt like we controlled the game. By that point of the season, the girls were so mature in sticking with it.” Manheim Township’s

District Three Class AAAA final appearance was its fourth straight, and its victory over Mechanicsburg produced the Blue Streaks’ third district title in four seasons. Earlier in the year, Manheim Township had earned another Lancaster-Lebanon League championship with a triumph over Penn Manor and had extended its win streak against L-L League competition to 52 straight. “Winning is never easy,” said Suydam. “I think one of the things I’ve seen with this program is that when you can s u stain success, your new players experience success with players who have already experienced success. Over the last 10 years, I know there were elementar y and middle school players watching, and they grew up to be super successful. It just builds on itself. We have this thing that just keeps being built into our players. We have kids who just want to keep passing it on to the next generation.” “The chemistry is a big part of it,” Suydam continued. “You’re bringing together kids with different styles of life. It’s a complicated puzzle to put together. The leadership

of the senior class kind of makes or breaks these things. (T he players) weren’t all super close, but they all had their place and there was somebody for ever ybody. They all felt like they fit in.” “For me, the highlight of my season was winning leagues for the four th straight year in the (Stormers’) stadium,” said senior Regan Taylor. “This year, I believe the key to our success was c o n f i d e n c e . We k n e w going into the year that we were losing many starters and that this would be the first time seeing the field for many new players. We tried to stress from the beginning that making mistakes was fine. By the end of the season, you could see younger players becoming more confident on the ball going into league and districts and contributing greatly to team success.” With 15 goals and 12 assists, Taylor led the Blue Streaks in scoring this fall. She received offensive support from Liv Parmer, who registered nine goals and seven assists, and Kate Palumbo, who compiled eight goals and three assists. Goalkeeper Reagan Wa g n e r a n c h o r e d t h e M a n h e i m To w n s h i p defense. In its 24 contests this s eas on, Manheim Township outscored its opponents by a combined margin of 68-16. “I knew we graduated a really good class (from 2 0 2 4 ) ,” s a i d S u y d a m . “ We were bringing back a group of very talented players, but we weren’t as deep as we had been the last few years. Coming into it, I was excited with the talent. But our schedule was very difficult, and I didn’t think we’d do as well as we did.” “ I t ’s a re a l l y s p e c i al group of young women,” added Suydam. “ They have natural talent, but I’m a big proponent of hard work and effort. The difference between good players and great players is simply effor t. Great players don’t stop. If I had a hand in any of that, it was special for me.”

Roaring Into the New Year for Veterans Every New Year’s Day, the roar of engines becomes a rallying cry for local veterans as hundreds of motorcycle riders hit the road for a cause. The tradition will continue on Thursday, Jan. 1, 2026, with the 17th annual benefit ride, an energetic kickoff to the year that blends camaraderie, charity and a 25-mile scenic convoy along the Susquehanna River. Registration will begin at 10 a.m. at the Walter S. Ebersole American Legion Post 185, 255 W. Main St., Mount Joy. Riders will depart at 1 p.m., traveling the river route before ending at the Elizabethtown American Legion Post 329, 240 N. Hanover St. Before the engines rev, members of the auxiliary will serve breakfast at the Mount Joy Legion. After the ride, participants can enjoy a pork and sauerkraut dinner at the Elizabethtown post. Years ago, a group of friends got together and decided the best way to ring in the new year was by doing something they love - riding their motorcycles. They put together the event to raise funds for veterans at the Lebanon VA Medical Center. “All of the money we raise goes directly to the veterans,” shared Michael Hehnly, finance officer for the Mount Joy American Legion. “They can use that money to buy hyg iene items or other things they may need.” Last year’s ride raised
$40,000, he said. Over the years, the event has garnered almost $350,000 for veterans. Even with its serious mission, the day is full of fun and fellowship. Each year, one participant is named Baby New Year and arrives in a baby costume and sash. This year’s honoree is Mike Kaylor. Although motorcycles make up the majority of the convoy, the event is open to all types of vehicles, and no Legion affiliation is required for participants. More than 450 people joined the ride last year, Michael said, noting that one of his favorite aspects of the event is experiencing the waves and shouts of encouragement from people who watch the convoy as it travels past their house along the route. Local businesses also contribute to the event. Hummer’s Meats donates the post-ride meal, and Hummelstown Print House makes the event T-shirts. “Any business that would like to donate is invited to,” Michael said. “We’ll be collecting donations up until the day of the ride.” For Michael and his wife, Lori, the ride is personal. Both are veterans, and both understand the importance of giving back. While Michael will ride in the convoy, Lori, who also rides, will not join the group that day but will instead help to prepare the post-meal activities at the Elizabethtown Legion. “We do this ride in any kind of weather,” Michael said. “It’s a really fun tradi-
