SCCTC Building Blue Bird Houses For the past four years, the Susquehanna County Career & Technology Center’s Carpentry/Cabinetmaking Class has been constructing blue bird houses for distribution to worthy conservation localities which will enhance the blue bird population. According to the SCCTC’s Administrative Director, Dr. Alice M. Davis, “This is an important project - the students see how their work ties into not only the surrounding communities but also how it affects the environment.”
Pictured above: kneeling - George Zamorski, Devin Zona, Kyle Heller, Curtis Althouse, Daniel Osborn, Abigail Spears, and Dominique Horrocks; standing - David M. Rice, Bruce Castelli (SCCTC Carpentry/Cabinetmaking Instructor), Curtis Fassett, Jesus Avila, Billy Marcinkus, William Weida, Mike Sippel, Dillon Hitchcock, Jared Kirchner, and Gary Fenton(SCCTC Worksite Coordinator). This year the class chose the Cook’s Pond location in Potterville, Pennsylvania. The class was impressed with the story of how the Cook’s Pond Association saved the pond after the existing dam was condemned by the Department of Environmental Protection, who was afraid if it failed it would endanger the village of Potterville. “The students take great pride in the community projects that they have been involved in. From designing, to the hands-on aspect of the projects, I have found that the students are more enthusiastic about projects that involve helping others,” said Bruce Castelli, SCCTC’s Carpentry/Cabinetmaking Instructor. The story of how the public became involved and worked together to save the pond (it was dedicated on October 18, 1997) as a public place to fish and to enjoy the outdoors was intriguing to the class. The initial money was raised by selling raffle tickets for guns. This gave them the money to file for non-profit status so they could apply for grants. They were helped by Roger Madigan who was the Senator for the region at that time. The Manchester family deeded the pond and the land surrounding it to the Association for recreation purposes open to the public at no charge. The Department of Environmental Protection and Soil Conservation Departments were helpful with the planning. They devised a coffer dam to save the fish, a favorite spot for bass fishing for many years. A flag pole and plaque in memory of Jim Allen, who spent hours goose hunting, fishing and trapping was presented by Allen Farms. Some of the people who were instrumental in this total community event (but not all by any means) were Dick Rockefeller, John Karpautz, Gary Corbin, Christi Corbin, Keith Corbin, Todd Corbin, Dan Barrett, Morgan and Mary Edith Davis, the Kirk Manchester and the Manchester Family, Dave Simons, Jamie Cooper, Roger Cook and the Athens Bank.

E/L Forensics Team District Champions At the PA High School Speech League District 8 Championship at Bloomsburg University on February 20, the Elk Lake Forensics Team had a record breaking day. All three EL Forensics Team members qualified to the PHSSL State Championship Tournament on March 12-13 at Susquehanna University.
Pictured above, Elk Lake Forensics Team District Champions: Shea Skinner, 1st place in Lincoln-Douglas Debate; Austin Cohen, 3rd place in Lincoln-Douglas Debate; Richard Guiton, 2nd place in Extemporaneous Commentary; EL Forensics Director Keith Brosious. Junior Shea Skinner led the team by winning the District 8 Championship in Lincoln-Douglas Debate by compiling an undefeated 4 win and 0 loss record. On his way to that title he defeated debaters from Crestwood and Pocono Mountain West high schools along with 2 debaters from Wallenpaupack High School. EL freshman Austin Cohen also compiled an undefeated 4 win and 0 loss record by defeating debaters from Bangor, Note Dame, Wallenpaupack and Pocono Mountain West high schools. However, his speaker points total placed him 3rd overall in LD Debate. Normally, only the top two place-winners advance to the State Championship. However, because Cohen had an undefeated record, he received an automatic qualification to the PHSSL State Championship Tournament. Because the team was allotted only 2 slots in LD Debate, sophomore debater Richard Guiton had to enter a different event, Extemporaneous Commentary, for the first time in his career. After a lot of hard work learning the new event, Guiton advanced to Finals in the event by placing 1st, 2nd, and 2nd in his three preliminary rounds. In Finals, he placed 2nd and advanced to the PHSSL State Championship Tournament. Guiton becomes the first EL Forensics Team member to advance to the PHSSL State Championship Tournament in a non-debate event in the team’s 18 year history. This was also the first time in the team’s history that the entire team at Districts advanced to the State Championship Tournament. “Their success today is the result of months of hard work. I am extremely proud of all of them. Shea and Austin had tremendous tournaments in LD and Ricky really put in an incredible performance in his first tournament in Commentary,” commented EL Forensics Director Keith Brosious. The team will now travel to Abington Heights High School on March 6 to compete at the Scranton Catholic Forensics League National Qualifying Tournament. The top 4 place-winners in each event at this tournament will earn the right to compete against the top 200 competitors in their respective events at the National Catholic Forensics League Grand National Tournament in Omaha, Nebraska over Memorial Day Weekend.
