As warmer weather approaches, the Tuckerton Seaport and Baymen’s Museum in Tuckerton is offering a plethora of enriching and educational activities for the whole family. May is filled with a variety of workshops for every kind of crafter and even those simply interested in learning something new about age-old traditions.

For the Birds! Weaving Workshop

Master basket maker Mary May will kick off the month on Saturday, May 6 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. with a woven birdhouse workshop. Participants will craft their very own, one of a kind birdhouse based on traditional South Jersey berry baskets. Adorning the birdhouse is a unique glass oval, repurposed from wine bottles. Each glass piece has its own shape, so every birdhouse will be distinct from the rest. The “roof” of the birdhouse is crafted from recycled cedar wood. Registration is $42 for members and $46 for nonmembers.

The Art Is in the Bones

Ty “Dancing Wolf” Ellis, from the Nanticoke Lenni-Lenape Tribal Nation, will lead an imitation-bone jewelry workshop on May 6 from 12:30 to 2:30 p.m., complete with a Q&A portion on modern indigenous communities in Lenapehoking.

Participants will learn methods of crafting jewelry that has been used traditionally for a number of purposes – as chokers, for aesthetics or finding one’s voice, or even as breastplates for battle protection. Participants will use imitation bone to craft a choker, and Ellis will elaborate on its many different uses throughout history.

Some time will be dedicated to learning about the struggles and triumphs of tribes within the Lenapehoking. Participant questions are welcome.

Registration is $48 for members…

H.S. Baseball/Softball: Holy Redeemer baseball increases first-place lead

No Comments on H.S. Baseball/Softball: Holy Redeemer baseball increases first-place lead

WILKES-BARRE — Holy Redeemer pitcher Dino DiMauro accomplished two things Tuesday afternoon.

First, he helped the Royals tighten their grip on first place in Division 2 of Wyoming Valley Conference baseball. Secondly, he got the fans out of the frigid weather rather quickly.

DiMauro threw a two-hitter as Redeemer shut out Nanticoke Area 3-0 on a 51-degree cloudy day at Gibby Field.

Before a crowd with many in heavy coats and some with blankets, Redeemer improved to 8-1 in the division and 11-3 overall with a victory that took only 95 minutes. Nanticoke Area (5-3, 8-7) dropped from second place to third, switching spots with idle Lake-Lehman (6-3, 7-6). The teams play 12 divisional games.

“From last year going like 5-14 to starting with a nine-game win streak, it feels really good,” DiMauro said. “Everyone’s hopes are high.”

Redeemer last won a divisional title in 2016.

DiMauro gave up a one-out single to right to Derek Shemanski in the third inning, but came back with two of his five strikeouts. Lucas Stachowiak opened the Nanticoke Area fifth with an infield single. The Trojans eventually ended up with a first-and-third situation with two outs, but Redeemer catcher Kayden Stevenson threw out a runner trying to steal to end the threat.

Nanticoke had one base runner the final two innings who was erased in a rundown.

“(DiMauro) mixes it up really well,” Redeemer coach Ryan Knowles said. “He’s our veteran, our leader, our captain. He is very confident out there. He threw a great game today.”

Redeemer took a 2-0 lead in the fourth. Luke Kopec opened the inning by bouncing a double down the left-field line. He moved to third on a flyout to right. KJ Gryboski then walked and took second on…

Chief public defender replaced in defending Nanticoke man on fatal drug driving charges

No Comments on Chief public defender replaced in defending Nanticoke man on fatal drug driving charges

WILKES-BARRE — A Nanticoke man charged in the drug driving death of James Mahon in Plymouth last year was appointed a new defense attorney Tuesday due to a breakdown in the attorney-client relationship with his previous lawyer, Luzerne County Chief Public Defender Steven M. Greenwald.

Jose Calo, 58, of Pine Street, was under the influence of fentanyl when he crashed his Ford Explorer that killed Mahon, 86, in the area of 10 E. Main St. on June 25, according to court records.

Greenwald graduated in 1977 from Wyoming Valley West High School when Mahon was an assistant principal.

Calo when presented with a plea agreement offered by the District Attorney’s Office in March began to express his disappointment that Greenwald had a prior “relationship” with Mahon, according to court records.

Greenwald said he had no relationship with Mahon other than the fact Mahon was an assistant principal at the high school he attended. Greenwald said he had not spoken with Mahon in nearly 45 years.

Despite the near half century of not seeing or speaking with Mahon, Calo felt there was a conflict with Greenwald defending him on charges of homicide by vehicle, homicide by vehicle while driving under a controlled substance, accidents involving death, driving under a controlled substance, driving with a suspended license and several traffic violations.

Since March, Calo refused to meet with Greenwald and members of the public defender’s office at the county correctional facility.

Greenwald filed a motion for a conflict attorney to be appointed to represent Calo.

In court Tuesday, President Judge Michael T. Vough said defendants have a right to be represented by an attorney but don’t have the right to chose an attorney if they are unable to afford one themselves.

Greenwald said the…
