Twin Valley FFAecs Attend Camp
EL VERSON—Three members
of the Twin Valley FFA chapter
attended the recent Berks County
Conservation Camp held at Camp
Joy. Representing Twin Valley
were Amy Yuninger, daughter of
Mr. Robert Yuninger of Honey
Brook; Eric Wisniewski, son of
Mrs. Eileen Smutek of Mohnton
RD; and Thomas Morgan, son of
Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Morgan, Sr.
of Birdsboro, RD.
The conservation camp pro
vides students with a first-hand
experience to investigate environ
mental problems in such areas as
water quality, wildlife manage
ment and land use. With its own
director, the camp utilizes special
ists in many different areas. For
example, Duane Pysher, Berks
County Soil Conservations, spoke
to the group on how soil erosion
can influence water quality and
what can be done to reduce pollu
tion problems through soil conser
vation. A representative of the
Pennsylvania Game Commission
spoke on the types of waterfowl
found on the bay and in southeast
ern Pennsylvania as well as how to
identify them.
The theme for this year’s prog
ram was Chesapeake Bay and how

involved spent two days on the bay
studying its problems. As Eric
stated, “at first I thought it would
be boring, but I really enjoyed it.
We spent every day from 9 to 4 in
class just like in school, but they
made it fun to learn.” Students
learned first-hand about the pollu
tion problems of the Bay and how
they can be detected and
measured.
Basic scientific principles were
taught to students and tests were
run. Students measured the quality
of water both above and below a
local sewage treatment plant. They
found over four times as many dif
ferent types of aquatic organisms
above the plant than below. This is
a sure indication that some form of
pollution is occurring.

The work of the committee is
stretching longer than ever. “It
used to be that we worked on it
from January to June. Last year we
started in October and hoped to
finish in April,” Ruth states.
Her mother was an avid quiltcr
and Ruth learned the skill at home;
however, it has only been recently
that she feels she can take the time
to put the skill to use. She does,
however, continue to enjoy sewing
for herself.
She said the final price of the
quilts in the auction depends upon
the workmanship, the color
schemes and the patterns. “We try
to get color schemes that are in,
and we try to have one of a kind.”
It gives her satisfaction to see

that younger people are quilting
now. “When we look for quilters it
is often younger ladies who are
willing. The idea of crafts has
grown in recent years, and quilting
falls into that category.”
In addition to her church work,
Ruth is active in the Gideon Mini

Leukemia fund drive in her neigh
borhood. She also enjoys preserv
ing food, much of it fresh from her
own garden.
Quilting is very much in the pic
ture for Ruth over the next few
years, but she has also had requests
for Kubota pillows, which she has
done in liquid embroidery. For
now, the quilt is simply a “keep
sake,” a lovely reminder of the
tractor which means a lot to the
Keller family.
