Campers at a culinary camp at LCCC learned to slice, dice, sauté, and more.

NANTICOKE, Pa. — “Sprinkles by the handful” was part of the instructions in the cake decorating process as students learned how to bake and decorate cakes during the Luzerne County Community College Kids Culinary Boot Camp in Nanticoke.

For some students, this was the first opportunity to engage in the kitchen and with new friends.

“They are just fantastic,” said chef Instructor Kim McLendon. “They are very attentive, they listen, but they’re eager to just get back out there and just start cooking and just being amongst their friends.”

But many of these chefs say they’re here to learn.

“I’m learning a new skill, and it’s quite fun to do that because I just like to have like a general knowledge of things,” said 14-year-old Luke Colleran of Mountain Top.

“So, I can learn more, and my sister said, ‘Yay, maybe you can make eggs then,'” said 10-year-old Cecelia Cain of Mountain Top.

This boot camp is an opportunity for students to learn about cooking and an outlet for creative expression.

“I’m putting on the sprinkles on the peanut butter, add, like, a little pop to it,” said Cecelia.

“I’m going to make a giant Oreo by putting the vanilla in the middle and then the chocolate on the outside,” explained Luke.

“We allow them to say this is our taste test kitchen. I feel like it gives them that vast knowledge to be able to expand throughout the box and really learn to develop their culinary intuition, which is great,” said McLendon.

Earlier this week, the students learned to make salads and pasta. Next up is pizza, followed by a “Chopped”-style competition in Nanticoke.

The camp at LCCC wraps up at the end of the…

Edward S. “Baran” Baranowski, 72, of Lake Silkworth and formerly of Nanticoke, passed into eternal life Saturday morning, July 17, 2021, in Residential Hospice, Inpatient Unit, Geisinger South Wilkes-Barre, following a courageous battle with cancer.

Born on Sept. 5, 1948, in Lehman, Edward was the son of the late Edward C. and Adeline Frankowski Baranowski.

Edward was a graduate of Nanticoke High School, Class of 1966.

A United States Army veteran, Edward honorably served his country for nearly three years during the Vietnam War, attaining the rank of specialist 4th class.

Prior to his retirement, Edward was employed as a driver for C.H. Briggs Hardware Company.

Edward was a member of the Nanticoke Fire Department’s Mowery Hose Company No. 3 and the Nanticoke Ambulance Association, running with Medic 301. Additionally, he was a member of the Lucky 14 Sportsman Club.

An avid outdoorsman, Edward enjoyed fishing, hunting and golfing. His granddaughter, Kaitlyn, was the light of his life, and he was proud of all her accomplishments. He was a great fan of Kaitlyn’s traveling softball team, The Rivercats, attending all her games to cheer her and her teammates on.

Edward is survived by his loving wife, Barbara Katra Baranowski, with whom he celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary on July 10. Also surviving are his beloved daughter, Cheryl Brudnicki and her fiancé, Richard Bohan; his adoring granddaughter, Kaitlyn Brudnicki; his brothers, Richard Baranowski and his wife, Elaine, Nanticoke; and Anthony Baranowski and his wife, Michelle, Nanticoke; his sister, Debra Keener and her husband, Byron, Pittston; his faithful companion, Bella; as well as his nieces, nephews, extended family and friends.

The Baranowski family wishes to extend their sincerest thanks to the PCU and ICU doctors and nurses from Geisinger Wyoming Valley Medical Center for their compassionate care of Edward during his final days. They wish to also thank his oncologist…

Jul. 17—NANTICOKE — State Rep. Gerald Mullery, D-Newport Township, this week welcomed House Minority Leader Joanna McClinton to Northeastern Pennsylvania as part of her fact-finding tour of communities throughout the state.

“I’m very grateful to spend time in the 119th District today and seeing firsthand how the Commonwealth’s investments are helping meet local needs and how additional support will bring about development to this important region,” said McClinton, D-Philadelphia.

McClinton visited the L.S. Bowl-A-Rama site in Nanticoke. The 122,000 square-foot structure running the entire length of East Washington Street between South Prospect and South Walnut streets has been vacant since 2007. Mullery said the former silk mill has been a longstanding eyesore in the community and, despite changing ownership on multiple occasions, has yet to be razed.

“We are on the verge of securing significant state funding to assist the city of Nanticoke in demolishing this eyesore,” Mullery said. “I wanted Leader McClinton to see the hurdles cities like Nanticoke face in acquiring and eliminating blighted properties so they could rehabilitate these sites and attract new developers who will contribute to the tax base.”

Nanticoke Mayor Kevin Coughlin said he was honored to host McClinton.

“This property has become the city’s responsibility at a cost of nearly $1.4 million to destroy,” Coughlin said. “We have worked with our state partners to acquire much needed grants. This particular property has become a public safety concern as debris has begun to fall onto the streets and sidewalks. We need the state’s assistance to help protect our citizens.”

Mullery and McClinton also visited Main Street in Glen Lyon. In 2016, the Economic Innovation Group reported Glen Lyon was the most distressed community in Pennsylvania. One key factor in their determination was that nearly one-third of Glen Lyon’s properties remained vacant. A significant portion of those properties are blighted, Mullery…

Jul. 16—NANTICOKE — At a brief meeting Thursday the Greater Nanticoke Area School Board passed a school safety plan that — for now — would still require elementary students to wear masks, approved a one-year Act 93 agreement that gives 14 employees a 2% raise, and for the second consecutive month officially asked long-absent board Member Matthew Landmesser to resign.

Noting the safety plan is “ever changing” but also necessary to qualify for a $7.3 million federal COVID-19 grant, Superintendent Ron Grevera said the plan is to start school Sept. 7 “as close to normal as possible. Nobody is more excited about that than this guy.”

Grevera said most staff and many of the students 12 and over have been vaccinated, with another student vaccination clinic being set up for August. Which means the Education Center and High School are expected to open with no mask requirements, and lunches returning to the cafeteria for all students — elementary students had been eating in their rooms at their desks during the peak of the pandemic. The district still intends to try to maintain three feet of social distance, the current recommendation of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

But students in the elementary school will still be wearing masks under current guidance, he said, though that could change either with new guidance from the CDC or state, or with approval of a vaccine for younger children.

The Act 93 agreement covers non-union employees, primarily administrators and staff other than the superintendent. The board unanimously approved the agreement, a sharp contrast to the June meeting where the eight members present split evenly on the motion to approve,

Landmesser was the lone missing member at that meeting, making the tie possible with eight members instead of nine. At that meeting, the board also voted to ask Landmesser…

Headlines July 13, 2021

Here are some of the top stories we’re following for Tuesday, July 13, 2021.

Damian Giletto, Wochit

He helped bring hope to those in Delaware in need of medical care. 

Dr. Jose Castro Pamintuan, who died last month, leaves a legacy in which he provided new health care opportunities to the people of Kent and Sussex counties, including co-founding Dover’s Hope Medical Clinic. 

“Dr. Pamintuan was one of the primary care volunteer physicians at the Hope Clinic for over 10 years,” said Dr. Vicenta P. G. Marquez, a co-founder of the Hope Medical Clinic. “He was very kind, compassionate and an excellent clinician.”

Though Pamintuan was a cardiologist by training, Marquez said he was a general practitioner at Hope because of their clientele.

“He treated all patients the same way as if they were his private patients,” she said. “Also, he genuinely catered to each patient trying to understand the whole patient – soul, mind and body.”

Born in the Philippines to a school teacher and homemaker, both of whom were also farmers, Pamintuan excelled at San Fernando High School where his obituary said he earned a seat at the University of the Philippines College of Medicine. 

After receiving his medical degree in 1961, he traveled to the United States to further his education, completing a postdoctoral fellowship in…

A spider hung on the ceiling above my kitchen sink. It was probably there for days, but I only noticed it last Thursday. A similar spider used to hang in the upper corner of my bathroom. It might’ve been the same spider. They certainly look alike: long, thin legs protruding out of a tiny brown body that’s a little bit longer than most daddy long-legs I’ve seen. I took a picture and sent it to my friend, a biologist who specializes in spiders. He said it was a Pholcus phalangioides, better known as a long-bodied cellar spider.

Cellar spiders like to dwell in spaces where there’s not a lot of light and the temperature is around 50 degrees, like basements, caves, and under stones. When one gets inside a house, it makes webs in the corners of ceilings. They don’t bother anyone; they’re good for pest control since they eat small insects and other spiders. I decided this new spider settler can stay for a while.

The spider was gone the next morning. In its place were a tiny spider—leftovers from last night’s dinner, no doubt—and fragments of its web. I started missing the spider until I saw it in the opposite corner of my studio apartment ceiling, minding its own business. Normally I don’t care about insects until they get into my apartment, and then they must die. It’s my small part in contributing to the proud American tradition of protecting one’s God-given private property from outsiders, even if the outsiders were here first.

White people in particular love to dominate other people’s land. The Nanticoke were one of the many tribes that originally inhabited the Delmarva Peninsula, where I live, living peacefully off the land and Chesapeake Bay until Captain John Smith arrived in 1608. At first, the…

We’re just a few days removed now from the fantastic July 4th holiday weekend. We certainly hope everyone had a great time celebrating Independence Day here in the coastal region.

But the Summer of 2021 rolls on this week with several more fantastic mid-year events planned at and near the Delaware and Maryland beaches.

This week’s featured event actually requires a short drive to the west of the beaches, but is one of the summer’s most highly anticipated annual festivals.

Read more about the 2021 Nanticoke Riverfest festivities below, as well as events in Lewes, Rehoboth Beach, Ocean City, Wilmington and more.

And whatever you happen to have planned for this second weekend of July, make it a memorable one while the weather is still warm and the beaches are alive with excitement.

Have a great few days everyone!

NOTE: We also wanted to mention that the popular Funland Amusement Park on the Rehoboth Beach Boardwalk will no longer be requiring advance reservations effective Thursday, July 8, and will be reverting back to its long-time practice of selling individual tickets for all rides. Great news!

Nanticoke Riverfest (July 10)

One of the summer’s most popular festivals returns this weekend after a one-year hiatus, when the Nanticoke Riverfest again takes center stage in nearby Seaford.

The highlight of this annual event is the popular float-in, which begins at 8:30 a.m., on Saturday, July 10. So grab an intertube or anything else that floats on the water and join hundreds of other festival goers on a long and relaxing float down the Nanticoke River.

In addition to the wildly popular float-in, other entertainment and activities planned throughout the day include a performance by the Nanticoke Indian Dance Troupe, several musical performances, a large car show, a children’s area, a “hidden idol” activity,…

Oyster House Park, at the site of the old J.B. Robinson Oyster House in Seaford, is now open on the Nanticoke River.

The first of four construction phases was recently completed, allowing the public to access an extended riverwalk, fishing nooks, entertainment deck, short-term boat docking facilities and a kayak launch.

“This investment will not only draw people to the waterfront to enjoy the natural beauty of the river but also to Seaford’s downtown businesses,” said Seaford Mayor David Genshaw. “We believe this park will have a significant economic boost to not only our downtown but will also impact future investments along the waterfront.”

DOWNSTREAM: New park coming to Seaford is one-of-a-kind on the Nanticoke River

Future construction phases, to be completed over the next five years, include:

• Phase Two: Construction of 75-seat amphitheater and overflow lawn with room for 200, which will tie into the entertainment deck. Landscaping and water quality enhancement projects.
• Phase Three: Construction of visitors center, a scaled-down replica of the J.B. Robinson Oyster House. Building will include restrooms, information and historic exhibits and space for meetings, classes and similar events.
• Phase Four: Construction of a pavilion and a “tribal council ring” for Nanticoke Indian ceremonies, as well as path and walkway improvements. 

RELATED: Work begins on Seaford’s eco- and family-friendly Oyster House Park

The $1.2 million project will focus on enhancing access to both the Nanticoke River and the city of Seaford along the Captain John Smith Chesapeake National Historic Trail (also known as the Chesapeake Trail).

It’s funded by a mix of government and nonprofit money, with the Chesapeake Conservancy playing a pivotal role.
