The natural gas boom will be coming to Harford very soon. It’s already come to neighboring townships, with new drilling pads just to the north in New Milford Township, and others to the south in Lenox. The Harford Township Supervisors have been trying to prepare, with new noise and driveway ordinances, and the gas exploration companies are trying to comply.

At the Supervisors’ meeting on August 9, Garry Foltz reported that Southwestern Energy took barely half a day to complete the latest tests along Houlihan Road. They want to lay a fresh-water pipeline from Martin’s Creek up to a site at the top of the hill to the east of U.S. Route 11 in New Milford Township.

Planned August 8 during a Forest City Regional School Board meeting, a meet and greet session will be held to introduce John J. Kopicki, who replaces Dr. Robert Vadella as school superintendent. The event will be held at FCR on August 30, from 5 to 8 p.m. and will coincide with seventh grade orientation, which begins at 6 p.m.

On behalf of the Old Home Week Committee, John Kameen thanked the school board and school employees for a “wonderful job” during the festivities. He commented favorably on the alumni basketball game and the music recital and added, the “school looked beautiful.”
