Perry Extension
Holds Meeting
NEW BLOOMFIELD (Perry
Co.) —“Don’t wait until the Dau
phin Narrows are no longer nar
row!”
With that statement. Dr. Herb
Cole, professor in the College of
Agricultural Sciences, challenged
those attending the Perry County
Extension annual Meeting to plan
for the future and manage the de
velopment that will be coming to
the county.
Cole used examples end slides
from other Pennsylvania locations
where agricultural and rural inter
ests are currently in conflict with
rapidly suburfoanizing areas.
Cole stressed the importance of
the agricultural land preservation
program and agricultural security
areas to avoid nuisance ordinances
hindering agricultural work in a
community.
“A township in southeastern
Pennsylvania currently has pro
posed an ordinance to keep farm
equipment off of all roads before 9
in the morning and after 4 p.m. in
the evening. Additionally, this
township wants to ban all farm
equipment from working in the
field after 8 in the evening.” said
Cole. He asked the fanners in the
audience a rhetorical question,
“Could you operate within these
restrictions?”
More than 100 county residents
were in attendance to hear Cole
speak, and he challenged each of
them. “Whether you are a farmer,
resident, county commissioner,
legislator, township official, or
just plain citizen, it is up to you to
determine where and how growth
will occur in this county. Plan for
growth. Plan also to keep your
valuable agricultural economy.”

tension Board President Brenda
Benner, Millerstown, the follow
ing new board members were
elected: Michael Brennan, New
port; Peggy Raub, Duncannon;
Oscar Campbell, New Port; Kel
ley Griswald, Millers town; and
Walter Martz, Duncannon.
Judi Mains, a 4-H member from
the Duncannon area, presented her
experience at the National 4-H
Congress in Chicago last Decem
ber. Mains not only mentioned the
fun and excitement of the experi
ence of meeting other 4-H mem
bers from around the nation, but
stressed the role the 4-H program
has had in her development and
preparation for life.
Dave Swartz, county extension
director, presented certificates to
those individuals completing
training in the Penn State Master
Gardener Program. Receiving cer
tificates were Kay Cramer, New
Buffalo; Jolene Hoffman, Sher
mansdale; Joyce Boyer, Newport;
