When The Waters Rise, Will You Know What To Do? According to the American Red Cross, flash floods are the No. 1 weather-related killer in the U.S. Almost half of all flash flood fatalities are vehicle related, according to the National Weather Service. If you're driving and approach a water-covered road, turn around. Just 6 inches of water can stall a vehicle, and 2 feet can float most cars, trucks and SUVs. Here are some other tips to stay high and dry: Floods are one of the most common weather hazards in the United States. They can happen anywhere at any time of year.
What is a Flash Flood?
Densely populated areas have a higher risk for flash floods than rural areas. Flash floods can occur within minutes or hours of a heavy rainfall, and waters can rise as high as 30 feet or more. Even small streams and creeks can flood rapidly and cause damage. Flash floods are usually caused by slow-moving thunderstorms.
According to the National Weather Service, "Flash floods are short-term events occurring within six hours of the causative event (heavy rain, dam break, levee failure, rapid snowmelt and ice jams) and often within two hours of the start of high-intensity rainfall.” Flash floods can move homes and cars, uproot trees and destroy bridges. Because floods happen with little to no warning, residents in low-lying areas are particularly at risk.
!
Know your proximity to rivers, streams and dams During heavy rain, avoid underpasses, underground parking garages and basements Avoid hiking or camping if thunderstorms are predicted Develop an evacuation plan for your family Don't walk in water above your ankles; you can be swept off your feet in as little as 6 inches of rushing water Turn off the electricity and other utilities During heavy rain, Township storm sewers can become blocked with debris causing flooding in the street. In preparation of any rain event, Township crews do attempt to clean storm inlets to make sure they are able to collect water from the street. If you notice debris on top of a storm inlet before or after a storm, contact the Township immediately. If your roadway becomes flooded during a storm, call 911 immediately so emergency personnel can respond to close the road to traffic.
What is Impervious Surface? Impervious Surface- A surface that prevents the infiltration of water into the ground. Impervious surfaces include, but are not limited to, streets, sidewalks, pavements, driveway areas, or roofs. Any surface areas designed to be gravel or crushed stone shall be regarded as impervious surfaces. Impervious surfaces reduce the amount of rainwater that can be absorbed into the ground. When there is less ground for water to penetrate, it can quickly flow directly into stormsewers and creeks, increasing the likelihood of more frequent and more severe flooding. Additionally, pollutants are unable to penetrate an impervious surface. Rainfall may carry these pollutants directly into our waterways resulting in water that is unfit for wildlife or recreational activities. Water runoff from an acre of paved surface is approximately ten to twenty times greater than an acre of grass. Materials such as crushed stone, porous concrete, and pervious pavers can provide various amounts of infiltration but are not considered 100% pervious. To minimize the impact of water runoff, impervious surface coverage is limited to a maximum percentage per property, which varies by municipality. Any additional increase of concrete, brick, asphalt, etc. on a property may require a building permit prior to construction.
SEWER BACKUP AND FLOODING INSURANCE
!
Sewer backups and flooding can cause devastating property damage and are not covered by standard homeowners’ insurance policies. The majority of these claims are the responsibility of the property owner. Sewage from sanitary sewer lines occasionally back up into houses through drain pipes. These backups not only cause extensive water damage that is difficult and expensive to repair, but also create health hazards.
Radnor Township is not responsible for damages caused by sewers, drains and sump pumps except under limited/special circumstances provided by the PA Municipal Immunity laws. Township residents must be aware that they should review their homeowner’s, flood and sewer backup insurance coverage with their agent/insurance company in order to properly protect their personal residences—probably the most valuable tangible asset that we all have.
Please pay particular attention to the following coverages: Coverage for Sewers, Drains and Sump Pumps: This valuable coverage is not included under your standard homeowner's policy but can be purchased by endorsement for an additional premium. Flood Coverage: Flood coverage is not included under your homeowner’s policy. However, flood insurance is available under the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) and can be obtained through your insurance agent or broker.
The Township does not provide flood insurance. 6

place their leaves on their property and OFF the street (behind the curb). The township crews will remove the leaves from that location. All tree branches and tree
Please note: The leaf collection schedule is subject to change in cases of inclement weather. limbs must be removed
Each year during the months of November and December the Township's Public Works Department collects leaves from residential properties located on all Township, State, and Private roads. In an effort to get all of the leaves collected before winter weather, leaf collection will begin a week earlier this year. Leaves will be collected two times in
each district. The second collection will begin after the first collection has been complete in all three districts. Leaf Collection Guidelines: Residents who live on street names listed in CAPITALS on the Districts Streets List (see website mentioned above) MUST place their leaves in the gutter line of their street.
Leaves should be piled so they do not impede the cart way. If SOME leaves must remain behind the curb (so that the cart way is not impacted) township crews WILL remove leaves from that location. Residents who live on streets listed in regular type on the Districts Streets List (see website mentioned above) are required to
from leaf piles.
Because of State regulations, bagged leaves will not be collected by Radnor Township Solid Waste Collection Division during this collection. All leaves to be collected must be placed according to the guidelines described and will be picked up in bulk. There will be no exceptions! Special note: Please do not park any motor vehicle on top of leaf piles. A hot engine could cause the leaves to catch fire. Note to Landscapers: It is illegal to dump compacted loads of leaves on Township streets. Any contractor caught dumping compacted leaves will be subject to a fine for illegal dumping on Township right-a-way. Daily Leaf Collection Schedule: The projected list of streets that the leaf crews will be working on the next workday can be found on the Township website at www.radnor.com. The leaf schedule will be followed as possible, weather permitting. The Daily Leaf Collection Schedule can also be seen on RTV, Comcast cable channel 10 or Verizon FiOS channel 30. The cable service is subject to change due to unforeseen circumstances that may arise.

Making Conversations Easier SpeakUp! is an innovative solution to the age-old problem of how to get teenagers talking openly and honestly about stress, relationships, drugs and alcohol, academic pressure, sex, social media, parental expectations, depression, anxiety and other challenges. The good news is that SpeakUp! knows from 18 years of listening to thousands of teens and families, that when adults listen without judgment, young people will tell us how to best guide and support them. Some things we have learned from listening: 1. See teens as problem solvers, not problems to be solved. Teens tell us, “When our parents trust us, we trust ourselves.”
mistakes, emphasize their strengths and solutions. “I just want to be acknowledged for something I have done right, rather than just what I've done wrong or haven't done.” 8. Ask, “what would help?” “Sometimes what I really need at that moment is just someone to wash my uniform.” And, “Sometimes I could just use a cup of hot cocoa.” And, “Sometimes I just need a break to watch TV and then I can get back to my homework.” 9. Clarify what they want from the conversation. Ask, “Do you want advice, or do you just want to vent?” “We want to be heard, before we are helped.” And, “Sometimes I just want to complain and have my parents say, “that stinks.” 10. Share your experience rather than advice. They often want our advice, they just want to be in the best position to receive it. “I learn way more from what they did than what they tell me to do.” 11. Acknowledge and validate them. “Sometimes I just want to hear that it's natural to be upset or anyone in my situation would be disappointed.”
2. Let them know you love them no matter what. “I just want to know that they love me, even when I make mistakes especially when I make mistakes.” 3. Be equals in the conversation. You may not be equals in decision making, but everyone feels valued when they feel heard. Try to listen first and speak second. “It's easier to understand my parents when I feel like they really try to understand my point of view.” 4. Recognize how much they want to please you and hate to disappoint you. Teen's behavior is shaped, in part, by how much they want to please you and make you proud. “I hate to disappoint my parents. I lie about my grades because I know how much they want me to succeed.” And, “You know, when we mess up, we already feel bad.” 5. Think coping, not character. See their behavior as a coping strategy - an attempt to deal with the situation they were in at that time. When problems arise, brainstorm healthier coping strategies rather than focusing on their character. “I made a mistake and I cheated, but I don't want them to think I'm a cheater.”
12. Find out if you're inadvertently adding to their stress. Ask, “Are there things I do or say that create stress in your life?” “I get worried I'm going to flub my lines when my parents keep offering to practice them with me.” And, “You made it all look so easy, so I thought there must be something wrong with me that I was struggling.” 13. Stay calm. It is best to sit down and problem-solve together when you are both calm and not rushed. “I am not talking to my parents about my problems, because they are so stressed, and I don't want to burden them.” And, “I raise my voice when they do.” And, “Their intensity makes me shut down.”
14. Stay present in this day, with this teenager. “My parents focus too much on my future. It really stresses me out.” And, “I believe everyone deserves their own account in the trust bank. My older siblings made a lot of mistakes and now there is no trust left for me.” 15. Share your family background. “It helps me to know that my parents made mistakes, too.” And, “It helps to know that they are worried when I drink because there is alcoholism in my family.” 16. Have fun with them. Spend relaxing time without an agenda. “I love taking a break and watching TV with my parents.” And, “Family dinners are great, but only when they're short and we don't talk about school.” 17. Apologize when you're wrong. “I feel really respected when my parents say they're sorry for yelling.” 18. Let them have activities that aren't achievement-oriented. “We don't even like to tell our parents what we like to do, because then they want to make us do it better.” And, “When they ask me if I want lessons, I feel like I'm not good enough.” And, “I don't want to tell my parents I like to bake, because they'd want me to open a bakery.” 19. Focus on talking not “the talk.” When we were growing up we were given “the sex talk” or “the drugs talk.” It was more like an awkward lecture and we wanted it to end. Now, we know it's not one conversation, it's an ongoing conversation where we listen and share perspectives over time. “I told my mom I had a prom date, and she launched into a safe sex talk before she even asked her name.” Or “I wanted to tell my mom about my new friends at school and I got a lecture about peer pressure and drinking instead.”
6. Let them know their mistakes don't define them (and neither do their achievements). “It helps when you remind me that blowing the tryouts doesn't mean I'm not an athlete or getting a C in chem doesn't mean I can't be a doctor.”
20. Try to avoid making tech the bad guy. Teens often take criticism about tech personally. It may help to acknowledge the importance of tech in their lives so that you can help them make sense of it. “I find it so much easier to tell my dad how I feel in a text.” And, “My parents don't let me have a cell phone or social media and I understand why. But, I am so isolated. I sit at the lunch table and I have no idea what anyone is talking about.”
7. Focus on their strengths. Rather than focusing on our teens' problems and

School Buses & Traffic Safety 3 Be alert. Children walking to or from their bus are usually very comfortable with their surroundings. This makes them more likely to take risks, ignore hazards or fail to look both ways when crossing the street.
With a new school year underway, motorists are reminded to be vigilant of school children and school buses. Here are some important safety tips when sharing the road with school buses:
3 It is illegal to pass a school bus that is stopped to load or unload children.
3 School buses use yellow flashing lights to alert
motorists that they are preparing to stop to load or unload children. Red flashing lights and an extended stop sign arm signals to motorists that the bus is stopped and children are getting on or off the bus.
3Pennsylvania law requires that traffic in both
directions stop on undivided roadways when students are entering or exiting a school bus.
3Traffic behind the school bus (traveling in the same direction) must stop.
3The area 10 feet around a school bus is where children are in the most danger of being hit.
3Stop your car far enough from the bus to allow
children the necessary space to safely enter and exit the bus.

Radnor News
3 Never pass a school bus on the right. It is illegal and could have tragic consequences.
The Pennsylvania Vehicle Code provides strict penalties for drivers who fail to obey speed limits in school zones and stopped school buses. The Vehicle Code reads in part: 3345. Meeting or overtaking school bus. (a) DUTY OF APPROACHING DRIVER WHEN RED SIGNALS ARE FLASHING. Except as provided in subsection (g), the driver of a vehicle meeting or overtaking any school bus stopped on a highway or trafficway shall stop at least ten feet before reaching the school bus when the red signal lights on the school bus are flashing and the side stop signal arms are activated under section 4552(b.1) (relating to general requirements for school buses). The driver shall not proceed until the flashing red signal lights are no longer actuated. In no event shall a driver of a vehicle resume motion of the vehicle until the school children who may have alighted from the school bus have reached a place of safety. The driver of a vehicle approaching an intersection at which a school bus is stopped shall stop his vehicle
at that intersection until the flashing red signal lights are no longer actuated. (g) EXCEPTIONS FROM STOPPING REQUIREMENTS. The driver of a vehicle upon a highway or trafficway with separate roadways need not stop upon meeting or passing a school bus with actuated red signal lights which is on a different roadway. (j) PENALTY. A person who violates subsection (a) commits a summary offense and shall, upon conviction, be sentenced to pay a fine of $ 250 AND receive 5 points on their license. 3365. Special speed limitations. (b) SCHOOL ZONES. When passing through a school zone as defined and established under regulations of the department, no person shall drive a vehicle at a speed greater than 15 miles per hour. An official traffic-control device shall indicate the beginning and end of each school zone to traffic approaching in each direction. Establishment of a school zone, including its location and hours of operation, shall be approved by the department. (d) PENALTY. i) For a violation of subsection (b), a fine of not more than $ 500 if the person exceeds the maximum speed limit by more than 11 miles per hour AND receive 5 points on their license.

Sports & Health Keep injuries off the court
Whether you're a weekend warrior or a proud parent on the sidelines, here's what you need to know about preventing basketball injuries. Get the right gear Personal protective equipment might feel excessive on the court, especially if you're just playing a game of pickup. But there's a good reason for this equipment: it's your best defense against a sports injury. While basketball requires minimal equipment compared with other sports like hockey or soccer, there are a few things you can pick up to keep yourself or your athlete safe on the court: A mouth guard Basketball sneakers with ankle support Athletic goggles, in lieu of glasses Compression socks to aid in recovery, if you play regularly
David Vegari, MD Orthopedic surgeon at Lankenau Medical Center Main Line Health
As the weather cools down, basketball season is picking up. And, while basketball season can be fun for players and fans alike, it's also plagued by the potential for injuries. “Basketball relies on being able to make quick, short movements, and your knees and ankles are doing the majority of the work. That's what makes injuries like jumper's knee, torn ligaments and ankle sprains and strains so common among basketball players at any level,” explains David Vegari, MD, orthopedic surgeon at Lankenau Medical Center, part of Main Line Health.
Hydrate early and often A bottle of water (or several!) is a must when you're doing any kind of physical activity, whether it's a basketball game or just a workout at the gym. Stopping for water breaks helps prevent dehydration and replenishes the water that your body loses through sweat, but the benefits don't stop there.
you are injured, your body can recover more quickly,” explains Dr. Vegari. Play by the rules Just like it's important to take a coach or trainer's advice regarding personal protective equipment, it's also important to make sure you're playing by the rules. Playing too aggressively can result in injury yourself or others. No matter how competitive it gets, remember: It's just a game. Get back in the game If you've had a sports-related injury or have a condition that's keeping you out of the game, our sports medicine physicians and specialists are here to help you get back to doing the things you love. Our goal is to help you get back on the court, the field, the track - whatever activity you're missing out on and to live an active life again, free of pain and limitation. At Main Line Health locations throughout the Philadelphia region we offer evaluation, diagnosis, and non-operative as well as surgical treatment and rehabilitation for active adults and adolescents with acute injuries or chronic conditions related to sports or other activities. To schedule an appointment with a specialist at Main Line Health, call 1.866.CALL.MLH or visit mainlinehealth.org.
“Water is the best choice for athletes or because it can help prevent muscle fatigue or cramping, which is important if you're working out for a longer period of time or playing a game that can go for several hours,” says Dr. Vegari. While sports drinks, like Gatorade or Powerade, might be the preferred choice for some athletes, it's always best to reach for water to keep you hydrated before and during a game. Recognize pain and address it early Basketball injuries are common and, if they're severe enough, can sideline your season. For this reason, it's better to take a break from the game than to play through any pain or discomfort. Before you get back on the court, try the RICE (rest, ice, compression, elevation) method to see if it helps heal the pain. If not, make an appointment with your primary care doctor to determine whether it's an injury that just needs more time to heal or requires special treatment. Whatever the case, remember: don't play with pain. Fit in additional workouts One way to protect yourself against injury is to make sure you're supplementing your basketball games with other workouts, too. “Staying in shape can help you prevent injuries. It helps to build muscle and prime your body to respond better to the physical demands of a sport like basketball. And, if

Preparing Your Vehicle For Winter Now is the time to stay ahead of the weather and be prepared for winter and winter driving. CJ's Tire & Automotive wants to help you take a few precautions and be ready for the changing weather and driving conditions. 1- Make sure your windshield wipers are in good shape and all your lights are working. Winter wipers, with the rubber coverings that keep ice from collecting on the blade, have become very popular. They're great in the winter, but make sure you take them off in the spring. Winter wipers are heavy, and if you use them all summer, you'll wear out the wiper motor prematurely. And when using your wipers in the winter, remember to turn them off BEFORE shutting off the engine. Why? Water frequently freezes overnight during the winter. And if your blades freeze to the windshield, when you go to start your car, the wiper motor may burn out trying to get them back to the "rest position," while you're sitting there wondering, "What's that burning smell?” Don't forget about your lights. Headlights, Tail Lights, Brake Lights, Back-Up Lights, and Turn Signals. You want to see where you're going and so do all the other drivers on the road! 2- Make sure your battery and charging system are up to snuff. Your mechanic should check the battery, charging system, and belts. Your battery can leave you stranded simply because it's old and lousy. Or it could leave you stranded because your charging system isn't working well, and the battery isn't getting charged properly. So have your mechanic check the battery and charging system. Two things to remember about batteries: First, the battery that started your car easily in the summer may not have enough oomph to do it in winter. In winter, the engine is harder to start, because the oil isn't as "fluid" as it was last July. And secondly, batteries lose power as the temperature drops (you remember your high school chemistry, right?). So not only do you need MORE power to start the engine in winter, you also get LESS power from the same battery.
winter months. Why…because tire pressure drops by about one pound per ten degrees of temperature. So when its 10 degrees in December or January, and the last time you checked your tire pressure was back in July when it was in the ninties, your tires will be dangerously low and will jeopardize your car's handling. Many newer vehicles have tire pressure monitors, which alert you to dangerous changes in tire pressure but they aren't as dependable as doing it yourself with a good air pressure gauge. At the same time, check the depth in the grooves on your tires' tread. New tires generally start with 1012/32's of an inch. If you tires are below 4/32 of an inch, they may not be able to give you safe traction in snow and slush. Best recommendation…see a tire professional at CJ's for a free safety inspection of your tires! 4- When driving in the snow, do everything slowly. Keep in mind that driving in snow, sleet, and ice is very treacherous. And even if you maintain control of your car, not everyone else will. So don't ever get lulled into a false sense of security. Do everything slowly and gently. Remember, in the snow, the tires are always just barely grabbing the road. Accelerate slowly and gently, turn slowly and gently, and brake slowly and gently. 5- Make sure you have some basic supplies in your car in case you do get stuck.
5. Use low gears to keep traction, especially on hills. 6. Don't use cruise control or overdrive on icy roads. 7. Be especially careful on bridges, overpasses and infrequently traveled roads, which will freeze first. Even at temperatures above freezing, if the conditions are wet, you might encounter ice in shady areas or on exposed roadways like bridges. 8. Don't pass snow plows and sanding trucks. The drivers have limited visibility, and you're likely to find the road in front of them worse than the road behind. 9. Don't assume your vehicle can handle all conditions. Even four-wheel and front-wheel drive vehicles can encounter trouble on winter roads. If your rear wheels skid... 1. Take your foot off the accelerator. 2. Steer in the direction you want the front wheels to go. If your rear wheels are sliding left, steer left. If they're sliding right, steer right. 3. If your rear wheels start sliding the other way as you recover, ease the steering wheel toward that side. You might have to steer left and right a few times to get your vehicle completely under control. 4. If you have standard brakes, pump them gently. 5. If you have anti-lock brakes (ABS), do not pump the brakes. Apply steady pressure to the brakes. You will feel the brakes pulse - this is normal.
Invest in a substantial snowbrush and an ice scraper. It's not a bad idea to have an extra set of gloves in the trunk, as well as a shovel, ice melt and jumper cables. A blanket is a good idea - just in case. If you have any winter clothes you don't wear anymore, especially an old pair of boots, throw them in the trunk, too. Hopefully, you'll never need them, but better to be safe than sorry! Also, keep the phone number of your local CJ's Tire & Automotive store handy.
Driving safely on icy roads 1. Decrease your speed and leave yourself plenty of room to stop. You should allow at least three times more space than usual between you and the car in front of you. 2. Brake gently to avoid skidding. If your wheels start to lock up, ease off the brake. 3- Check the tire pressure and 3. Turn on your lights to increase tread depth of all four tires. your visibility to other motorists. You should check your tire pressure 4.

If your front wheels skid... 1. Take your foot off the gas and shift to neutral, but don't try to steer immediately. 2. As the wheels skid sideways, they will slow the vehicle and traction will return. As it does, steer in the direction you want to go. Then put the transmission in "drive" or release the clutch, and accelerate gently. If you get stuck... 1. Do not spin your wheels. This will only dig you in deeper. 2. Turn your wheels from side to side a few times to push snow out of the way. 3. Use a light touch on the gas, to ease your car out. 4. Use a shovel to clear snow away from the wheels and the underside of the car. 5. Pour sand, kitty litter, gravel or salt in the path of the wheels, to help get traction. 6. Try rocking the vehicle. (Check your owner's manual first it can damage the transmission on some vehicles.) Shift from forward to reverse, and back again. Each time you're in gear, give a light touch on the gas until the vehicle gets going.
If you'd like to have your car checked for its “winter readiness” by a professional, CJ's offers free multi-point inspections. With a little preparation and free services from CJ's Tire & Automotive, you won't get caught out in the cold this winter.

Viral Video Trends Gone Wrong by Tatyana Warrick How social media challenges are driving dangerous behavior, and what parents can do about it. An 8-year-old girl died after drinking boiling water through a straw on a dare from her cousin. A 22-year-old man died after convincing his girlfriend to shoot him for a failed YouTube stunt. An 18-year-old landed in the ICU with a fractured skull after jumping out of a moving car to perform the “In My Feelings” or Kiki Challenge. Kids and young adults are harming themselves or others at an alarming rate in order to gain attention or boost their followers on social media. Throughout history teens have been trying to pull off dangerous stunts as a rite of passage. Engaging in dangerous behavior and ignoring potential consequences is in some ways part of growing up. It is also what makes teens such risky drivers. However, social media platforms like YouTube and Snapchat have turned what might have been just an isolated incident into a viral trend copied by thousands. “Destructive and harmful effects” of social media have been bemoaned by news anchors and the First Lady's “Be Best” campaign to address cyberbullying. One would think the Darwin Awards would

provide a loud and clear warning to wouldbe stunt performers, but as 95% of teens now have access to a smartphone, every day more are inspired to participate in the latest prank.
to do the same. At a time when preventable injuries and deaths are on the rise, impressing your friends, whether online or in real life, shouldn't require putting yourself at risk.
According to Injury Facts, 29% of all hospital emergency department visits are injury related. As if everyday preventable injuries aren't reason enough to end up in the emergency room, now we're seeing dozens of these dangerous challenges. Teens are ingesting laundry detergent packets for the Tide Pod Challenge, pouring boiling water on unsuspecting friends for the Hot Water Challenge, or willingly dousing themselves with rubbing alcohol and lighting it on fire for the extremely dangerous Fire Challenge.
Surveys of teen behaviors show that high school teens whose parents miss significant transition periods such as birthdays and other important changes are more likely to engage in high-risk behaviors, which include things like drinking and driving, unprotected sex and perhaps even engaging in dangerous social media stunts. Please remind your child that no viral challenge is worth a trip to the hospital, and real friends keep each other safe.
Perhaps none has gone as viral as the Kiki Challenge, which has crossed international borders and landed several people in the hospital. Police and government agencies around the globe, including the National Transportation Safety Board, have warned against jumping out of moving vehicles to participate in this trend, and some jurisdictions even threatened criminal charges.
As with all risks that teens face, parents are key to opening lines of communication and making sure that young people know they are valued. No social media following can compete with that. Tatyana Warrick is a public relations manager with the National Safety Council.
Young people will undoubtedly continue to come up with new and ever more inventive ways of getting hurt, but that doesn't mean we should glorify this and encourage others

Wharton Esherick Museum Accessibility Efforts Reach New Heights Thanks to support from the National Endowment for the Arts and other generous funders, the Wharton Esherick Museum is now able to share the joy of Esherick's Studio with blind and visually impaired individuals through Touch Tours. Countless guests to the museum have cherished the unique connection made to Esherick's brilliance through touch - the feel of his carved Drop-Leaf Desk or the flow of the Music Stand as it curves to the floor. Recognizing our unique position as a site that loves to offer a hands-on approach, we partnered with the Philadelphia-based Philly Touch Tours to do just that! Philly Touch Tours LLC, founded in 2015, works to provide equal opportunities in cultural settings for people with vision loss and were able to help us craft a tour that shares Esherick's legacy in a rich, meaningful way. After work. Docents can volunteer to do as few as two or three tours a year, or give one every week if they like! Our team of volunteer docents are essential to our daily operation and our spirit. We routinely gather together to share ideas and feedback, enjoy each other's company and even take field trips. Being a docent here is a lot of fun, but don't take our word for it! Give us a call at 610-644-5822 or email Laura@whartonesherickmuseum.org
research and development last fall, a group of staff and volunteers from WEM participated in an initial training with Philly Touch Tours held at the Penn Museum. Led by the refreshingly good-humored and authentic Philly Touch Tours staff (Trish Maunder, Austin Seraphin and Katherine Allen) and their wonderful volunteers, the training included a discussion on sensitivity (everything from verbal, body language and other etiquette, to misconceptions and stereotypes), as well as Sighted Guide and description techniques. We launched our pilot tours here at WEM in the spring, planning routes and developing interpretive materials, including Braille and large print resources. A 3D printed tactile model is also in the works, which will be generously donated by HGA Architects and Engineers. Hosting Touch Tours at the Wharton Esherick Museum has been a delight and an inspiration. We've all been grateful here at the Museum for the chance to change the pace of our tour experience, to let touch lead rather than follow the interpretation of Esherick's work, and we're excited to bring the intimate, tactile experience of Touch Tours to sighted visitors as well. Greater accessibility truly enriches all our experiences and we are so very excited to open our doors wider! 22

Plan a Visit The Wharton Esherick Museum is experienced through guided tours which must be reserved in advance. About one hour long, the guided tour is an immersive experience which takes guests through the home/studio of Wharton Esherick, preserved much as it was when the artist lived and worked there. Additional programs and events can be found on our website. For reservations or more information visit www.whartonesherickmuseum.org.
Help us Preserve Esherick's Legacy Join us this year to have a big impact! The Windgate Charitable Foundation has generously awarded the Wharton Esherick Museum a $50,000 challenge grant, committing to match donations or memberships we receive this year to help us ensure funding for this special place. This means your gift in 2018 (including membership renewals) will have double or even triple the impact! Visit the Support page at whartonesherickmuseum.org to learn more.

New Museum Taking Shape at John James Audubon Center Construction is progressing on the new museum located at the John James Audubon Center at Mill Grove, 1201 Pawlings Road, with a projected opening in Summer 2019. The new building celebrates the amazing world of birds, providing hands-on learning opportunities for visitors of all ages. The John James Audubon Art Gallery will contain original Audubon prints as well as a life-size digital version of the Birds of America that will allow for hands-on learning about each species featured. A short movie depicting the life and journey of John James Audubon will be played throughout the day. Other short conservation films will be shown at various intervals.
Outdoor attractions will include the Pawlings Porch, where visitors can bird watch over a wildflower meadow, and the Fledgling Trail, which will engage children of all ages in mimicking the life stages of a young bird from egg to first flight. There will be a sensory garden, water features, accessible play apparatus, and benches to relax and enjoy nature.
Partner organization Valley Forge Audubon Society is at work organizing new programs and birdwalks for next spring and summer to align with the opening of the new center. Their current event calendar can be found at www.meetup.com or on their calendar of events page at www.valleyforgeaudubon.org.
Additional exhibits will focus bird banding, feathers, eggs, nests, and flight. In a sound forest exhibit, visitors will be able to experience bird songs in different habitats including forests, coastal areas, wetlands, grasslands, and cities. Computer renderings show the new museum's exterior and a sample exhibit.

Senior Lifestyles Depression Is
NOT
a Normal Part of Aging Feeling sad, blue or lonely happens to everyone periodically. However, when these feelings persist or when they cause an individual to stop eating, sleeping or feeling in control of life, that may be a sign of chronic depression. Depression in older adults often goes untreated for a variety of reasons; some think that depression is a normal part of aging, some view it as a character flaw and others are concerned about the cost of treatment. Whatever the reason, untreated depression increases the risk of medical illness and cognitive decline.
“Surrey Home Care has helped clients who were active and then over time became more and more withdrawn, until they couldn't do any of the things they had formerly loved.” says Mary Ellen Herbert, RN, one of Surrey's nurse case managers. “They didn't realize they were suffering from depression. Surrey works closely with patients' physicians and families to help these folks get back to health.” The Mental Health Resource Program at Surrey Services offers low or no cost community based resources and referrals for older adults. Call Nicole at 610-6479172 for personalized referral information. All inquiries are confidential. This is NOT a crisis or emergency hotline. If someone needs immediate help, please call the Friendship line at
800-971-0016 or the Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 800-273-8255. Additionally, Surrey offers a variety of programs that can support positive aging and mental health. Yoga, Mindfulness, Tai Chi or art and music classes can help an individual who is feeling isolated become more engaged and active.
Depression is a disease like diabetes or arthritis. Accepting that depression is not a normal part of aging and seeking treatment is a huge step toward wellness.
