A son of Les Garr and Lori Garr, Ike was a member of the Richmond Lions team and his family has a long history of playing ball games at the Richmond facility. Steve Hughes, a member of the Richmond Lions Club, recounted a short history of the ball field that was created some 60 years ago from land donated by residents of the Village of Richmond along SR 611. Originally the home of the mens fast pitch softball team from the Richmond Methodist Church, it wasnt long before a Little League team for area boys was founded, followed by a girls softball team that
included many of Ikes great aunts. The ball field soon came under the management of the Richmond Lions Club that included Ikes great grandfather Floyd Mensch as a member, and who was present for the dedication. Mr. Mensch, along with a great uncle Ron Sartini were coaches on many of the early teams and a Babe Ruth team has called Richmond their home field for
probably 50 years. Harry Dickey is the current head coach and also present for the occasion was John OBrien, who coached the team for 38 years. A number of former teammates who played with Ike as well as his brother Dalton were also present. Money for the new fence was raised by family and friends and included Debby Magda, owner of the Richmond Hotel.

Family and Friends of the late Dennis Strouse would like to thank everyone who participated in the Bake Sale held recently to benefit the 912 Scholarship Fund in Memory of Dennis. Thank you to the great bakers, the people who came out to buy, and the many monetary donations. A Special Thank You to Capitol Ace Hardware in Capitol Plaza and Main Street Market in Bangor for letting us use your premises for our Bake Sale, it was greatly appreciated. Sincerely, The Strouse Family Dear Contributor: Its that time of year again for St. Johns Cemetery in Bangor to ask for donations. Last year, we received $7,802.75 in contributions and all was used for grass cutting. It didnt take long to use it up. The cemetery pays $1,050 per cutting plus a fuel surcharge per cutting, because of the high cost of gasoline. The cemetery is mowed twice a month, with extra mowings if we have a lot of rain. The lawn maintenance contractor has only raised his fee once since we have contracted with him and that was over ten years ago. And he does a great job! In between, we have storms that require the tree service company to be called for tree cutting and clean-up. The cemetery has a great neighbor in Augustine Sebastionelli, whose property borders the cemetery on South 4th Street. He is a mason and general contractor and helps us whenever possible and rarely charges us for services. Recently he and his employee, Matt Travers, took it upon themselves to remove 3 obelisk monuments (which were ready to topple over) level them up and reset them. Since he has not charged for his services, the best thing I can do for him is recommend him to all of you and hire his company, if you desire. There are many more monuments that need straightening but with 25 acres, it is impossible for the cemetery to right them. Since last year, Carol Hontz was made a member of the Cemetery Board. She is the daughtr of Burdell S. Hontz, our Board President. Thank the Lord for some young blood. Since you have been so generous in the past, we are asking again for your support. All money received is used for the general upkeep and maintenance of the cemetery. No donation is too small. Donations can be forwarded to Carol Hummel, c/o St. Johns Cemetery, 136 Messinger St., Bangor, PA 18013. Thank you, Carol A. Hummel, Secretary

(NewsUSA) - No one wants to admit that aging affects their ability to drive safely. But experts agree that, although not all drivers are the same, driving ability generally begins to deteriorate around age 55. Kathleen Marvaso, AAA's vice president of Public Affairs, said that as the population ages, senior-driver safety is becoming an increasingly relevant and challenging issue for many families. "Many adult children of senior drivers are looking for help navigating this new and sometimes challenging road," she said. "Our research shows that one of the biggest questions is how to begin the conversation." AAASeniors.com, AAA's senior safety and mobility Web site, offers
the following advice: * Plan ahead. It's never too early to begin the conversation. Planning ahead means you can discuss gradual adjustments that may be needed over time as a
to transportation that you would with finances and other retirementrelated decisions. Future transportation needs may affect other retirement decisions, such as selecting a retirement home. For example, convenience to public transportation or the availability of onsite transportation become important criteria. "At AAA, we want to foster a society where older adults can remain confident and independent and live to their full potential," Marvaso said. "AAASeniors.com gives seniors and their families the tools necessary to create an action plan to help manage the inevitable consequences of aging, and to help seniors drive for as long as safely possible -- and remain mobile thereafter." In addition to information about how aging affects driving, and tips for talking to seniors about safe driving, AAASeniors.com also provides an expert advice section, driving skills assessment tools, tips for choosing a safer car, fact sheets, brochures, and referrals to driver-improvement courses and free community-based programs.

(NewsUSA) - The days are longer, the sun is stronger and beach season is almost here, but getting in shape for summer means more than hitting the gym. It is also important to keep your car in tip-top shape before you get on the highway for an early summer getaway. Firestone Complete Auto Care has the following tips to get your vehicle road-trip ready: * Before the summer
heat hits, be sure to have a full vehicle inspection -- including the air conditioner -- to be sure it is cooling correctly. Taking this step may help avoid costly repairs. * Check all four tires, as well as the spare, at least once a month and before every long trip. Use an accurate tire gauge to make certain your tire pressure is at the recommended level. Also, check the treads using a tread depth indicator. * When you are packing up vacation necessities, take care not to overload your vehicle. This could create excessive heat inside your tires and even cause tire failure. * Take a few moments to prepare and pack an emergency kit, including jumper cables, a
flashlight and batteries, gloves, simple tools, flares, nonperishable food and water, and, if you have one, your auto club membership card. Getting on the Highway * Use good driving habits. Accelerating quickly and stopping abruptly can prematurely wear out your vehicle's engine, transmission, tires and brakes. * To improve your fuel economy, try to maintain a constant speed in order to reduce strain on your vehicle. Use the cruise control setting when it is safe. * Caught in traffic with a rising temperature gauge? To eliminate some engine heat and help prevent your vehicle from overheating, put the vehicle in neutral and give it a little gas. Just like you invest the time to stay in shape, in your haste to get on the road, don't forget to take the time to make certain your vehicle is up to the task of safely hauling your family to your vacation destination.
(NewsUSA) - You drive safely and follow your vehicle's maintenance schedule, but that doesn't mean you'll never find trouble on the road. But with a little preparation, you can handle almost any roadside breakdown. Here are some tips to help you prepare for the most common types of roadside breakdowns: - Dead battery. Your kid left a light on in the
backseat or a door slightly ajar, and now the engine won't start. Jump-starting your car is the best way to get back on the road. Always keep a pair of jumper cables on hand. In case your battery dies at night, you might want to consider purchasing a hands-free light, such as the Might-D-Light Rechargeable LED Worklight (might-dlight.com). Flashlights
can prove unreliable, not to mention unwieldy while making repairs, but the MightD-Light's two rare earth magnets can attach to the underside of the hood or hang from a hook, illuminating the area you need to work. - Fuel. You were counting on finding another gas station, but one never materialized, and now you're stuck. Put on your hazard lights and, if possible, push your car to the side of the road. If you have a cell phone, stay in your car and call an emergency or roadsideassistance number. If not, you will have to start walking. If you're in a remote area, flag down someone who can help. If you're in a city or town, walk to the nearest gas station by heading towards lights or the nearest exit. - Flat tire. Always make sure that your spare tire's inflated before heading out. If you do need to change a flat, make sure that there's a safe distance between your body and the edge of the road before removing your spare tire and jack. A hands-free light will prove useful for nighttime repairs. The Might-D-Light can stand on its own, so you can set it up and then get to work. For added safety, the worklight includes two reflective strips which improve roadside visibility. For more information go to: www.might-dlight.com.
(NAPSI)Investing a little time and effort when preparing for your next trip can pay big dividends when it comes to safety and convenience. To help, here are some tips: Avoid exchange lines, and unfavorable exchange rates typically offered in airports, hotels and foreign banks, by purchasing foreign currency before leaving the United States. Always have local denominations to pay for taxi fares, tips and meals. When using ATMs, use the same caution you would when youre at home. Dont flash your cash after leaving the machine. Use only ATMs in safe locations and from reputable financial institutionssuch as large, wellknown foreign banks. Carry only the funds you need for each days outing. Keep photocopies of your key documents separately. Photocopies might not always be accepted but they can speed the process of
getting replacements and/or be better than nothing. To get extra financial protection when traveling, carry and use a credit card. To minimize risk of theft or loss, take only the cards you will need, not every card you have. Consider using a card that offers travel-related consumer rewards. For example, if you use the AAA Member Rewards Visa Signature credit card* to book your vacation, you can earn three times the dollars spent on travel purchases in benefit points, plus double points on gasoline purchases and one point on purchases everywhere else.

The campaign, which is also available in Spanish, directs individuals to a toll-free number (877-38YOURGED) and the campaign website, w w w. y o u r g e d . o r g , where they can find referrals to free GED programs and information on the GED diploma process. Tips on Finding Help Additionally, the site offers a zip-code search for local literacy centers, the hotline number, a simple sixstep process towards earning your GED, and inspirational stories from adults who have earned their GED. To learn more, call (877) 38-YOURGED or visit the website at www.yourged.org. (NAPSI)Getting a high school degree can be a sound investment. Students who drop out of high school tend to earn less and to have a lower quality of life. Many work multiple jobs just to support their family. Also, those without a GED diploma tend to get the lowest paid and the least stable jobs. As of 2009, nearly 30 percent of adults living in households at or below the federal poverty line did not have a high school credential. While people may know they need a GED diploma, they often lack the resources to get started. The Road to a Better Life To help, the Ad Council and the Dollar General Literacy Foundation have launched a series of public service advertisements (PSAs) promoting their national GED Achievement campaign. The campaign is designed to provide high school dropouts with the encouragement and information needed to begin the road to a GED diploma. Through this campaign, we hope adult learners are inspired to complete their high school education by pursuing a GED, said Susan Lanigan, member of the Dollar General Literacy Foundation board of directors. Stars Give Pep Talks A number of celebrities including Jamie Lynn Sigler (The Sopranos), Jerry Stiller (Seinfeld) and Christopher Lloyd (Back to the Future) are participating by giving a series of pep talks in the ads. The PSAs show that getting a GED diploma gives you access to more possibilities in
(NAPSI)Sharing traditions can help families stay strong. Whether its meeting for a weekly dinner, celebrating birthdays or taking vacations together, sharing enjoyable experiences is a
great way to strengthen bonds. For many families, vacationing together generates many lasting memories. For example, the Sayers family has enjoyed 15 years of ownership at Disneys
Old Key West Resort in Orlando, Florida. From celebrating Dads 74th birthday, to watching the kids eyes light up at Disneys Animal Kingdom, to holding hands in anticipation of their vacation, this family has never looked back. We started a family tradition thats encompassed four generations by becoming Disney Vacation Club Members, said Donald Sayers of Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio, whose family was named May Timeshare of the Month winners. With a satisfaction rate of 85 percent and an occupancy rate that outpaces hotels by more than 20 percent, timeshares are a popular way for families to vacation together.

(NAPSI)This year, on October 10th, 4-H National Youth Science Day (NYSD) will offer students across the country a chance to take on the Annual 4-H EcoBot Challenge. The 2012 National Science Experiment, developed by Ohio State University and Ohio State Cooperative Extension, will test and
enhance engineering skills as youth assemble their own Eco-Bots and surface controls designed to manage an environmental cleanup. According to The 4-H Study of Positive Youth Development conducted by Tufts University, by participating in highquality positive youth development programs like 4-H, youth are more
