No Comments on Baseball Recap: Northwest Area falls despite strong effort from Trevor Dietz

If Northwest Area was riding high off their 11-5 takedown of Columbia Montour Vo-Tech last Thursday, their most recent game may have dampened their spirits a bit. The Northwest Area Rangers fell just short of the Hanover Area Hawkeyes by a score of 6-5 on Saturday. The result was an unpleasant reminder to Northwest Area of the 20-3 loss they experienced in the pair’s previous head-to-head fixture back in May of 2023.

Trevor Dietz made the most of his time at bat despite the final result and scored a run while going 3-for-4.

On Hanover Area’s side, Nick Schiel spent all seven innings on the mound, and it’s clear why: he surrendered three earned (and two unearned) runs on 13 hits and racked up eight Ks.

On the hitting side, Cam Kratz was excellent, going 2-for-3 with two RBI and a double.

Northwest Area’s defeat dropped their record down to 11-6. As for Hanover Area, their win ended a seven-game drought at home dating back to last season and bumped them up to 3-12.

Both squads are looking forward to the support of their home crowds in their upcoming games. Northwest Area will take on Millville at 4:30 p.m. on Wednesday. As for Hanover Area, their homestand will continue as they prepare to take on Greater Nanticoke Area at 4:15 p.m. on Wednesday.

The Board of Public Works approved Maryland Department of Natural Resources items including more than $12.9 million in grants to local governments and land trusts to preserve and protect land, and provide recreational opportunities for Marylanders.

Program Open Space – Local provides funding for county and municipal governments for the planning, purchase and development of recreational land or facilities.

A total of $11.98 million in Program Open Space – Local was approved for 8 projects, including a $5.4 million grant for the acquisition of 5.4 acres for a future indoor and outdoor recreation complex.

The facility, located in Anne Arundel County, will be named the Edgewater Community Park – Lee Family Community Center.

“Program Open Space continues to leverage state money with local support for recreation facilities in our communities,” said Hilary Bell, director of land acquisition and planning for the Maryland Department of Natural Resources. “These projects in turn provide Marylanders with proven health benefits for citizens, protection of open space from development, and investment in our local economies.”

Additional approvals include:

$800,000 from the Local Parks and Playgrounds Infrastructure Program for renovations to Rosemary Hills – Lyttonsville Local Park in Montgomery County. The Local Parks and Playgrounds Infrastructure Program was funded in FY 2022 and FY 2023 to provide grant funds primarily to local governments for park and recreation projects.
More than $140,000 in Rural Legacy funding was granted to The Conservation Fund for a conservation easement on 47 acres in the Nanticoke Rural Legacy Area in Dorchester County, thereby permanently protecting prime agricultural land which is part of a large block of working lands in the Nanticoke River watershed. The Rural Legacy Program, created in 1997, conserves large working landscapes across 35 locally designated areas…

Let’s talk about tacos: 8 Taco Tuesday deals in NEPA

No Comments on Let’s talk about tacos: 8 Taco Tuesday deals in NEPA

No one will confuse Pennsylvania with states like California and Texas when it comes to renowned Mexican food. But thanks to a growing Latino population, the northeastern part of the commonwealth boasts a vibrant mix of locally-owned Mexican restaurants, Tex-Mex joints, and taquerias.

As the Latino community grows in Northeastern Pennsylvania, Hispanic entrepreneurs are helping to revive a culture of small business. And many of these businesses are culinary gems.

We’ve put together a list of some of the best Taco Tuesday deals at restaurants in NEPA. Many of these restaurants are Latino-owned and serve cuisine the chefs grew up eating, while others proudly serve Americanized fusion food. And some restaurants may go all out for Taco Tuesday while others simply offer affordable tacos!

Check out these NEPA businesses the next time you want to treat yourself on a Tuesday.

Picosita Tacos – Nanticoke

Picosita Tacos is a genuine, family-owned taqueria that got its start as a food truck in Mountain Top. On Tuesdays in its brick-and-mortar location in Nanticoke, the restaurant celebrates Taco Tuesday at lunchtime (between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m.) with a special offering of four tacos for $10. What excellent motivation to take a lunch break!

La Cantina Amigon – Wilkes-Barre

The Wilkes-Barre Mexican restaurant that’s now located in the former Hottle’s Restaurant space is intent on sharing authentic Mexican culture with the Wilkes-Barre community. But La Cantina Amigon is also not opposed to merging cultures for the benefit of all, in this case meaning more tasty food options, as the restaurant’s menu also features hamburgers and wings. Each Tuesday, you can take advantage of La Cantina Amigon’s Taco Tuesday special — three tacos for $10.

Tiny coyote pup on the mend after rescue in Hamilton community

No Comments on Tiny coyote pup on the mend after rescue in Hamilton community

FLAMBOROUGH, Ont. – A coyote pup is safe and sound after a quick response by two Hamilton Animal Services employees.

Animal Services received reports from several residents that there was a sickly looking coyote carrying a little pup through their Carlisle neighbourhood.

When Officer Joseph LaMantia and licensing student Katie McLean arrived, they found the pup in a driveway, as temperatures were beginning to fall.

Animal Services manager Kate Beaton said the pup was alert and breathing, but needed medical attention when it was rescued.

“The health and safety of the city’s wildlife is a top priority,” Beaton told FlamboroughToday.

The pup was taken to Hobbitstee Wildlife Refuge in Nanticoke, where it is being rehabilitated. Animal Services says anyone who would like to donate money for its care should consider donating to the refuge itself.

Beaton said the experience has made McLean, who has been a student with the service for five months, consider working there full time.

Coyote mom still in wild

Animal Services says it is balancing concerns for the pup’s mother, which was described as “thin and sickly,” with the risk of taking her away from the rest of her pups.

Beaton said it isn’t common for a coyote to drop its pups when moving them, and said the coyote may have been startled by “an unanticipated interaction with a human, dog or vehicle.”

Animal Services is on the lookout for the mom, but said she is likely nearby in the woods, where there is a ravine, creeks and hiding spots. The service is warning residents not to startle or disturb the coyote, but to report sightings to Animal Services. They can be reached at 905-574-3433.

Beaton reminds residents to leash their dogs, not feed coyotes and keep your compost bins raised.

“Within the month of June, coyote pups reach growth milestones….
