Awards Presented To Montrose Kiwanians On Thursday, September 30, the Montrose Area Kiwanis Club was pleased to recognized Dennis Carey and Bruce Legg for their contributions to the club. At the Kiwanis induction meeting held at the Montrose House, Mr. Carey and Mr. Legg were presented with the George F. Hixson Fellowship Award. This is the highest award in Kiwanis a member can receive for the service he has given to the Kiwanis family. One thousand dollars was donated in Mr. Careys and Mr. Leggs name to Kiwanis International Fund which touches over twenty thousand children each year.
Dennis and Bruce are charter members of the Montrose Area Kiwanis, joining thirty years ago. During the presentation, memories from fellow charter members were relayed to the audience.

The Montrose Area Kiwanis Club is proud to have Bruce and Dennis as members.

The plaque was presented in appreciation for the commitment and dedication within the community that the library has shown over many years. The plaque will be displayed in the childrens book section; over, quite appropriately, the Disney books. Stop by the library and reacquaint yourself with the joy of reading.
Hello, its the Susquehanna County Dairy Princess once again. Recently I visited Joe Snedeker at the television news station WNEP. My Dairy Ambassador Karin Morey and I promoted the "Day on Dairy Farm" event on the evening news. We presented Joe with a tray of cheese and he showed us around the station.
While we were there President Bush was flying in and most of the news crew was taping him in Wilkes-Barre. Joe is a very funny guy and was very easy to get along with. Joe has asked us to come back sometime in November to do another promotion with him on the 6:00 p.m. news. Thank you, Joe for letting Susquehanna County Dairy Promotion come to the news station to promote the "Day on a Dairy Farm Event."

Susky Fire Dept. EMT's Certified Epinephrine Auto Injector The EMTs from the Susquehanna Fire Dept. Ambulance recently completed training in the use of the EPI-PEN, an Epinephrine Auto Injector. The EPI-PEN injects Epinephrine into the patient to combat the effects of an allergic reaction to bee stings, bug bites, food, and medicine allegories. A reaction as a result of bites, stings, food and medicine allegories is a true emergency. A person who is allegoric to these stings, bites, foods and medicine can die in a matter of minutes if left untreated. By the use of the EPI-PEN the Fire Dept. EMTs now have the capability of treating these emergencies under medical command, immediately. This is a true life saving advance in Basic Life Support Ambulance care. The EMTs had to complete the Dept. of Health training course and had to demonstrate their skills in order to be certified. The Ambulance Service also had to comply with the Dept. of Health regulations for storage and monthly inspection of the Auto Injectors in order to be certified. This is another attempt by the members of the Susquehanna Fire Dept. Ambulance to bring the very best care to the residents and visitors of the area.
