Sunday, July 29, 2012 THE DALLAS POST PAGE 11 i BILL TARUTIS/ FOR THE DALLAS POST People shop at one of the yard sales during Noxen Day. NOXEN Continued from Page 1 Church, of which she is a mem- ber. “I sell outside the church be- cause they usually have food and I can tell people so way more money goes to the church,” she said. Decluttering is one reason Lo- bacz keeps participating in the sale every year, but restocking her home is another. “I like to go to yard sales,” she said. “I like to change things in my home.” Seeing familiar faces puts the day in perspective. Lobacz said she sees the same customers year after year. “People always say, ‘There’s blondie,” she said, laughing. Pauley thinks the community could use a break from rebuild- ing after flooding devastated the township in 2011 and from ongo- ing work being done on the BP Wind Farm to be built in Mehoo- pany. State Route 29 in Noxen Township is being used as a stor- age site for the project’s materi- als. “It’s not just the flooding, but it’s the trucks that are on the road from 6 a.m. to 6 at night and the noise and the dust,” said down.” DAYCARE tinued from Page 3 McGovern. He said there’s a two-year wait- ing list for enrollment in Hilde- brandt’s programs, and McGov- ern feels this will allow the 70- student capacity facility to fill quickly. McGovern hopes the facility will not only create additional funds for the district - he’s hoping it will net between $70,000 and $100,000 annually — but will also save money in other ways. “If I could preserve one or two teaching positions based on the fact we have a daycare, I think it’s 11 worth it,” he said. “...Every ar, maybe there are people who stay out longer on FMLA (Family Medical Leave Act) that would come back sooner if they believe their children are here at work with them. Plus, the quality of education increases because you're going to preserve the con- tinuity of that same teacher in the classroom for greater periods of time.” He hopes the facility will also attract more students from other areas and indicated theres al- Comfort the Efficient Way Flalcyon b 2 Fujitsu ductless mini-split Air Conditioners and Heat Pumps offer year-round whole-home comfort in most climates.

PVR Partners responded to the organization’s requests by donat- ing the $25,000 vehicle, which will be used for more than just natural gas-related calls. “This will be used as an emer- gency vehicle to answer calls from the woods, and that can in- clude brush fires, injuries on the pipeline, snowmobile accidents, people getting stuck in snow and sleet,” said Van Etten. PVR Partners Vice President Mark Casaday, a Dallas High School graduate, said it is the company’s policy to aid the com- munities in which it does busi- ness. “We have a 30-mile asset run- ning from Susquehanna County through Wyoming County, and it’s a very important part of our business in Northeastern Penn- sylvania,” said Casaday. “It’s our policy to help out.” Vivian said the natural gas companies have been in close contact with emergency person- nel during the construction, and both parties keep a line of com- munication open to understand how to respond to natural gas emergencies. “We've had at least three meet- ings,” said Vivian. “We knew where the pipeline was going. If we had an emergency, we knew whose property it was and how to access it. We have to be progres- sive.” Dallas Township Supervisor Liz Martin, who has revamped the township’s emergency man- agement agency in response to the natural gas industry’s emer- gence in the area, believes the company’s investment in the township’s safety is important. “This is a tremendous benefit to our township EMA and fire de- partment because we have a whole new terrain and a whole new dynamic to deal with,” Mar- tin said. “It’s nice that one of the reasons we have this whole new dynamic is lending a hand.” PEOPLE BRIEF Ashley Lawrence arficipates in versity Camp Ashley Lawrence, of Har- veys Lake, a student at Lake- Lehman High School, recently participated in the annual Diversity Camp sponsored by the Diversity Institute at Mi- sericordia University.
