WELCOME TO THE

ALL
SCOTTDALE FESTIVAL
Welcome to the 2013 Scottdale Fall Festival. This year the park, where the festival takes place has
been renovated with new sidewalks and vegetation. The park was redesigned with permeable concrete
to allow water to infiltrate into the ground. The upgrades to the park is one of many projects that the
community can be proud of. The Scottdale Fall Festival has dedicated this program to recognize all of the
community sponsored activities.
The Scottdale Fall Festival has been around for 39 years. Although the festival has had many names over
the last 39 years, the principles never changed. The festival has always been a festival for the community
of Scottdale. The idea started with the 100 year anniversary celebration of Scottdale. A group of Scottdale
citizens created a celebration for the 100 year anniversary of the town. This group of people then decided
to have an annual festival called the Scottdale Coke Heritage Festival. The year was 1974 when the first
festival started. The festival would change names several times over the years until its present day name,
The Scottdale Fall Festival. The present day name of the Scottdale Fall Festival has been around now for 16
years. This is one of many events that the citizens of Scottdale can be proud of. This festival was created by
the community of Scottdale; for the community of Scottdale.
Over the last 39 years the festival has attracted people of all ages and helps promote local businesses in
our community. This three day celebration has many events such as a dog show, live entertainment, a race,
ethnic foods, children’s area, a teen dance, and much more. A list of events, food, and entertainment can be
found on pages 4-9. The Scottdale Fall Festival committee thanks you for attending and making this festival
bigger and better each year!

METRO
Metro is a dynamic 4 piece band featuring 3 lead vocalist instrumentalist
backed by a driving rhythm section. The band was formed in 1989 out of a
shared love of music and a passion to entertain fans with dance music, while
having a great time doing it. With an eclectic mix of music encompassing

stage and deliver high energy shows that make their faithful fans want to dance
all night. Metro’s fun-loving spirit and undeniable musical talent come together to give you a fantastic
experience that you won’t soon forget.
Abilene
Country music group Abilene debuted in the early 1980’s.
The band was composed of Herb Humphreys on lead guitar and
vocals, Keith Taylor on keyboards and vocals, Larry Miller on
bass and vocals, Jay McKnight on acoustic guitar, fiddle and
vocals, and Randy Rhodes on drums.
Abilene traveled the tri-state area, playing in Ohio, West
Virginia, and Maryland and recorded two local hits, (You Don’t
Need to Need Me Now and Louisiana Feeling). For several
years, the band was the opening act for national performers
and won a number of ‘Battle of the Bands’ and other contests.
One win landed them on the stage of “Jamboree in The Hills”
in 1984, which led to a performance on the popular Nashville “You Can Be A Star” television show on the
CMT network.
Over the past 30 years, and coming and going of band members, Abilene has shared the stage with
such greats as Alabama, Ronnie Milsap, The Statler Brothers, Pure Prairie League, Conway Twitty, Waylon
Jennings, Charlie Daniels, Dr. Hook, Eddie Rabbit, and the Judds.
In the past year, original members Herb, Keith and Larry reunited, and welcomed drummer and
vocalist Tim Burkhart into the group, combining a great mix of musical talents.
PGH Band
Meet Shari Richards, Sputzy Sparacino and Tony
Janflone Jr., blending their talents in PGH, the area’s
newest super group. PGH grew out of a benefit concert
Sparacino and Janflone played together in late 2012.
What could Janflone do, Sparacino wondered, with a
larger ensemble? A few weeks later, at another charity
show, Sparacino found himself onstage with Richards.
Sparacino says Richards and Janflone signed on almost instantly when the idea was brought to them, even
though such collaborations have inherent pitfalls. When three principals are used to being headliners, friction
is often an unfortunate and unavoidable byproduct. PGH also features keyboardist Jeremy Olson, bassist
George Elliott, drummer Joe Kluchar, percussionist Derrick Edwards and the horn section of Curtis Swift
(saxophone), Mark Custer (A) and Bob Matchett (trombone). The group will concentrate on cover songs
initially — notably selections by Sam Cooke, the Neville Brothers, Etta James and The Commodores — but
is open to writing new material.
Dave Iglar Band
Dave Iglar Band, “the most entertaining bar band in metropolitan Pittsburgh”
(Pgh. Post-Gazette), is an exciting rock and blues group. Ever popular with
audiences, Dave Iglar continues to live up to his long-standing reputation of
bringing thrilling shows and multi-talented musicians to stages across the region.
It’s The Rock-n-Roll Guitarnival!
The band, also featuring daughter Andrea on sax, is known for a huge, versatile
song list of original material and creative adaptations of blues and rock classics.
Dave is widely acclaimed as Western Pennsylvania’s guitar virtuoso and has
released many original recordings and performed 1,000s of shows.
Formerly of Force Field and Dave & Shari, he has appeared with celebrated
musicians such as Roy Buchanan, Susan Tedeschi, Taj Mahal, Dickey Betts, Steve
Morse, Robin Trower, Mick Taylor, Junior Wells and Buddy Guy. The Dave Iglar Band plays “Awesome
Rock & Blues”--night after night, fans come up to the band and exclaim: “Awesome!”
Platinum
Platinum is one of R&B music’s most beloved and consistently popular
vocal groups. Platinum was formed in 1999 by lead vocalist Darryl Askew, and his
friends Carlo Valotta, Mike O’Leary and John Radko from another local singing
group soon joined the group. Platinum performed in a lot of the local clubs in the
Pittsburgh and surrounding areas. Prior to joining with Platinum, Mike and john
had also played in the band called the New Memories along with Darryl. Platinum
has gone thru several female vocalists along the way to counterpart with Darryl,
but it wasn’t until 2002 when Kim joined the band. That’s when things really
started to click -- almost like magic. Kim was the former lead vocalist with another
well known local Band called the House of Soul. Kim had such a dynamic voice,
stage presence, charisma, and the sweetest personality you ever want to meet!
Darryl and Kim gelled instantly, the band now had a sound chemistry, their vocal
style harkens back to a more genteel era of crooning with their silky smooth voices
but yet they can groove and move an audience. As their popularity continues to grow, Platinum has a great appreciation
for their loyal fans, and of course they always welcome new ones. Audiences are hungry for great songs with timeless
melodies, and you can expect great songs and a stellar performance from this great band…PLATINUM.
Fonic
The band “FONIC” is comprised of former members of Switch
and Shakedown. They are a high energy group of musicians that
provide not only an incredible rock sound but are also a visually
entertaining performance as well. Between the high energy crowd
mingling’s of the lead vocalist, the constant action of the guitarists,
as well as the amazingly entertaining twirling and tossing of sticks
by the percussionist, the show has proven to be successful in pleasing
large crowds at all levels of the performance. While FONIC is a
defined Rock Cover Band covering the greatest music of the 80’s, 90’s
and today, through experience, they understand the demand of the
selection providing a dance atmosphere. The songs chosen are always
with the crowd’s participation in mind.
All of the members of FONIC have played numerous outdoor family
venues and understand the meaning of playing appropriately to the
crowds, using the best of judgment when making song selections and
editing for content.
Members
Shawn Kistler - Lead vocals (formally of Switch and 6ft. Symun), Bob Dugan - Lead/Rhythm guitar, vocals
(formally of Switch and 6ft. Symun), Joel Sanders - Lead/Rhythm guitar, vocals (formally of Shakedown), Keith
Urham - Bass Guitar (formally of Shakedown, Red Edna, and Whiskey High), and Jeff McNaney - Percussion
(formally of Shakedown, Dr. Feelgood, and 6ft. Symun)
Steve Hawk
“Steve Hawk is taking his experience as the front man, singer/song-writer of Pittsburgh’s band, Forgotten
Nobody (2005-2008), to his own level. With the success of Forgotten Nobody on local Pittsburgh Radio and
myspace.com, when FN went on hiatus after 2008, Hawk picked up the pieces of a life without singing and
playing original Rock & Roll. He’s now doing so in a solo Do or Die fashion!
Keeping personally sacred songs and experiences in his back pocket for many years, Hawk is now emptying
the lint, breaking out solo, acoustic, raw, and real.
Stricken with the blues, laced with punk, and feeling the hangover of old rock & roll, Steve has been out in
the Southwestern Pennsylvania and eastern Ohio music scenes for 3 years, enjoying the solo acoustic rock &
roll lifestyle.
Steve Hawk is now enjoying new fans, relishing old- icing the bruises of the past, dusting off his leather
jacket and getting ready to bring the swagger and energy of what one man with one guitar can bring.
Just like the old days.”
Household Stories
Household Stories is a three-piece indie rock band from Greensburg, PA. The band’s second EP titled
“Blueprints” made its way onto Hughshows and Drawuslines best of 2012 year-end lists. The band has been
performing since 2011, and recently released it’s newest EP called “Wild Hearts Can’t Be Broken,” which
was recored at J Bird Studios in Pittsburgh.
Breaker
The roots of Breaker Truly go back to 2004, when Dom and Joe began playing in bands together. Nothing
really stuck over the years, and the two continued their friendship while pursuing other musical and
educational interests. In the waning months of 2011 Dom and Joe found themselves in a position to start
anew, with a lot more experience under their belts. Knowing he was close at hand, they invited Nick to jam
on lead guitar with them. Quickly they saw what someone with a BA in Music and Guitar can do to kick it
up a notch. Nick’s Eric Johnson and J-rock influence meshed perfectly with Joe’s hard rock technicality and
Dom’s chaotic-yet melody-driven songs. Together, they generated a world that harkened back to a time when
the music scene included names like “Daltrey” and “Jagger.” In search for someone to hold down a bassline, Dom called upon his old co-worker, Chris, with whom he had played only a few open mics. Bringing
his progressive musical influences and Theatre/Music college education to the fold, Chris helped create
something unique. With the lineup completed, they started practicing. Each practice brought a new level of
innovation – it was like watching a lump of hot metal slowly forming it into a perfect weapon, filling their
arsenal with songs to unload on an unsuspecting audience. Their first show, in the South Side of Pittsburgh,
was a Battle of the Bands. Among the lineup of show-hardened metal core showmen and scream-wielding
punks, they clawed their way to second place on their first effort at a live show. Since then, they have been
grinding week in and week out to produce a list of songs worthy of first place. Now it’s time for them to
show their work– they’re ready to take those songs on the road.

SCOTTDALE SOCCER CLUB
The Scottdale Soccer Club strives to provide a safe and fun environment where
children not only learn about the game of soccer, but also about teamwork, respect,
and dedication. While offering youth soccer for the ages of 4 – 13 in the in-house
divisions, and 9 – 19 for the traveling divisions, this organization has the privilege
of helping to mold the youth of the community into fine young adults, and this is not
something that is taken lightly. Whether a player goes on from the club to play at
the collegiate level, or never plays soccer again after graduating from the in-house divisions, we hope that
each player leaves with the sense of pride and accomplishment, and a heightened self-esteem as a result of
playing soccer in our club. We are quite proud of the club’s heritage, and we are looking forward to serving
the community for years to come.
The club would like to take the opportunity to say thank you to the people and businesses within the
Scottdale community who have supported us through the years. It is only through the hard work and
dedication of volunteers, as well as the financial support of sponsors, that the club has been able to achieve
the success it has through the years. Our Kendi Field facility is known for its great fields, and the club is

Coal & Coke Trail
It was over 20 years ago, when several local biking enthusiasts, who were
Board members of the Laurel Highlands Chamber of Commerce hatched the
idea of connecting the towns of Scottdale and Mt. Pleasant to the existing Yough
River Trail at Connellsville by means of a bike trail. Out of this brainstorming,
came the formation of the Coal & Coke Trail Chapter consisting of community
leaders and elected officials from Scottdale and Mt. Pleasant boroughs and the
Townships of East Huntingdon, Mt. Pleasant, and Upper Tyrone. Exploratory
research resulted in a route developed from the abandoned Pennsylvania Railroad
line that would establish a trail from Kendi Park in Scottdale to Willows Park in
Mt. Pleasant of approximately 5.5 miles. Key grants obtained from the McKenna
Foundation and the Commonwealth of PA enabled the Chapter to identify and
purchase the needed property from local landowners and then the the work
began! Many challenges were overcome as the route was littered with thousands
of tires, junked vehicles, and garbage. Thanks to the hundreds of volunteers,
scout groups, and school students the cleaning of the site was accomplished.
Bridges were constructed across both Sherrick and Shupe Runs along with
numerous drainage pipes to insure the stability of the trail and safety crossings
with signage placed where the trail bisected busy roads. The assistance from
Borough, Township, and County workers was invaluable! Finally after a decade
of planning, work days, and construction the Coal & Coke Trail became a reality.
This recreational resource is used and enjoyed daily and has become a destination
for those Heritage Travelers seeking exercise and the solitude the trail provides.
Recently the Chapter has created access to Route 31 on the Mt. Pleasant end,
developed various trailhead parking areas, and rerouted the trail to take in more
of the scenic views of our beautiful resource, Jacobs Creek. Future plans are still
in place to extend the trail to downtown Scottdale and West Overton, create a
spur to Owensdale, and eventually the ultimate goal, a connection to the Yough River Trail, part of the Great
Allegheny Passage!

Scottdale Picnic In The Park
Prior to Scottdale’s 125th Birthday Celebration, Don
Graft and Sue Killinger gathered together a group
of people to brain storm an idea - the Creation of an
Anniversary Booklet as a tribute to our hometown,
honoring our heritage. Many hours of work and
preparation followed; however the Committee
considered it an honor to serve the community in
this manner for the present and also for the future
generations. The original Book Committee was Sue
Killinger, Karen Nicholson, Kathy Zaffina, Don Graft, Bob Miller and Tinky Nist. This group soon included
Allan Nicholson, Pete Zaffina, Tim Carson, Tom Killinger and Bud Santimyer who joined as Sue Killinger
proposed sponsoring an old-fashioned Community Picnic at Loucks Park. Picnic In The Park became a
reality.
This year marks our 15th anniversary with some changes in the Committee, but the concept has remained
the same. From 2:00 pm and continuing until evening, we offer homemade food, plenty of activities for all
ages, music and above all, spectacular fireworks, courtesy of The Scottdale Bank & Trust Co. and Brilhart
Ace Hardware. The current active Committee Members; The Nicholson’s, The Zaffina’s, Bud Santimyer,
Tinky Nist, Barbara Stern, and Leslie Street, are grateful for all the volunteers and supporting sponsors who
make the Picnic In The Park a success. We hope those who follow in the future will continue to keep this
tradition on the 3rd Sunday in August for many years to come.

SCOTTDALE PUBLIC LIBRARY
2013 has been a very busy year for the Scottdale Public Library!
Children and parents have enjoyed the activities throughout the summer
months. With three different programs running at the library, attendance
has reached a new high! We expanded to the parks with readers
available to read stories or to listen to children read to them keeping
the learning process going through the summer months. Karen Stefl,
retired Southmoreland Librarian joined our team and lead a fantastic
teen program. Area high school students volunteered and helped with the
younger children’s programs. A true community effort was evident all
summer especially at the 2nd Annul Bookworm Triathlon!
Looking forward to fall and winter, Library Director Patricia Miller is excited to announce a new program
for adults and teens called Pushing the Limits. Miller received
a grant from the National Science Foundation that will facilitate
a program for teens and adults focusing on book talks and
discussions that will focus on the basic STEM concepts. Staff is
also looking forward to Fall Computer Classes, Fall Book Sale
and a second Bookworm Craft Boutique Sale on November 23!
As the library celebrates 103 years of service to the community,
it is committed to continue to change with the times and meet the
growing needs of our community.

The Scottdale Parks and Recreation Commission
The Scottdale Parks and Recreation Commission is responsible to
recommend to the Borough Council how the Parks should be used and
maintained. Scottdale is a very fortunate town to have seven parks
within the community. The seven parks are; Loucks, Garfield, Kendi,
Barclay, Pittsburgh St, Chestnut St, and Gazebo Park. Some of the park
features are; ball fields, soccer fields, basketball courts, tennis courts,
play equipment, picnic areas, a water sprinkler, and pavilions. Loucks
Park in particular, features lights for night time competition at the ball
diamond and tennis courts. The Scottdale parks hold many events such
as the Scottdale Fall Festival, Picnic in the Park, Olympics in the Park, lunch in the park, and Light up night.
Furthermore, a recreation program is offered for area children during the summer months at Loucks Park.
Children are given the opportunity daily to participate in making a craft and to take part in a fitness program.
Play equipment is also available for use during this time. In conjunction with the Southmoreland School
District, a free lunch is also offered as part of the Summer Food Program. Using funds from various grants
in 2007 Garfield, Kendi, and Barclay parks were redesigned and new play equipment was installed. The
play equipment at Loucks Park was also updated that year. This year the Parks Commission has organized
Park Community Project days. The first project was cleaning up Pittsburgh Street Park which was held on
May 18th, 2013. The Scottdale Parks and Recreation Commission is looking for Volunteers and Donations
from community residents, scout groups, church groups, business organizations and anyone else who would
like to provide a helping hand in our 7 parks. This year in June a resolution was passed to protect its youth
and citizens from the effects of exposure to tobacco smoke pollution. The use of tobacco products will be
strictly prohibited at all borough owned facilities, including all parks and recreation facilities. The Park
Commission refers to the Parks as “The pride of our community”. If you are interested in lending a helping
hand check the Park Commission Facebook page for specific dates and times. Scottdale is a very fortunate
small community in which citizens can be proud to call HOME!

Jacobs Creek Watershed Association
Jacobs Creek Watershed Association (JCWA) loves to complete important
environmental projects, educate our young people and participate in
community events, and we’ve found a great partner for our mission, the
Scottdale Borough! From the flood control projects in the early 1970’s
that eased severe flooding in Scottdale to the recently completed Gazebo
Park improvement project, JCWA and Scottdale Borough have worked
together over the years to improve our environment as well as our
community.
Most of JCWA’s projects in Scottdale Borough create storm water
control measures that help prevent heavy rains from rushing into
Jacobs Creek and scouring the stream banks, causing erosion and
destroying aquatic habitat. The Gazebo Parklet project, which JCWA
manages for the Borough, created beautiful and functional storm
water improvements including flowering rain gardens and porous
concrete areas that absorb rain water. The attractive Gazebo Parklet
improvements complement our nearby Scottdale Library Reading
Garden project, completed a few years ago. If you’ve seen the new
trees thriving in the parking lot behind the Southwest Regional Tax Bureau, they are
also part of another JCWA-Scottdale Borough storm water project to control storm water and prevent
flooding of the Tax Bureau offices during heavy rains.
But we’re not stopping there. Future partnerships with Scottdale Borough include the Green Streets Project
that will bring esthetic storm water measures along Pittsburgh Street; green measures at the Scottdale
Firemen’s Club; a wetland/outdoor education area at the Southmoreland Middle School and storm water
control measures at the Southmoreland High School parking lots.
In addition to environmental projects, JCWA enjoys educating Southmoreland students on the importance
of clean water. Our annual events include the 9th grade stream evaluation days, where we help the students
compare a high quality stream to a poor quality stream that has been degraded by mine drainage and urban
pollution. We also help out at the annual 6th grade campout at Laurelville. This year, we helped the kids
wade into Jacobs Creek to search for the cool creatures that live on the bottom of the stream. It
was an interesting and wet day that everyone enjoyed!
JCWA also participates in Scottdale’s annual fun events. Our
members volunteer for the Bookworm Triathlon, participate in
the Fall Festival and pop all that tasty popcorn for the Picnic
in the Park. Stop by our Fall Festival booth at the corner of
Pittsburgh and Spring Streets to view some great photos of
our projects in Scottdale Borough. JCWA hopes our thriving
partnership with Scottdale continues to grow for a better
environment and a better community!

Scottdale is Going “Green”
The Borough of Scottdale is looking at a new way to
manage storm water in the down town area. What was once
considered a problem has become a green initiative. Before the
green initiative the only answer was to pipe the water away. With
help from the Jacobs Creek Watershed Association, DEP and the
EPA, the Borough of Scottdale is developing innovative ways to
minimize the storm water runoff from Borough parking lots and
streets.
The Partnership started in 2009 with the construction of the
Reading Garden. This garden is located between the Gazebo and
the Scottdale Public Library. The design and construction of this
garden use stormwater best management practices (BMPs) to
mitigate for the runoff. The Reading Garden used porous concrete
and a rain garden to help minimize the stormwater runoff from the former street. Another project designed
to minimize stormwater was constructed in the public and the private lots adjacent to Mulberry Street. This
project was designed to minimize the runoff from the parking lots by collecting and diverting water to the
newly planted trees.
Recently the Scottdale Gazebo Parklet has had a facelift. Rain gardens, an infiltration swale, and porous
concrete are new features constructed in the spring of 2013. The landscaping and stormwater features
have reduced the runoff from the parklet to the city stormwater system. Today a minimal amount of water
flows from the park to the city’s stormwater system. These stormwater features will store and delay the
stormwater runoff from the parklet. In addition, the public can enjoy a newly renovated park.
The reason these projects are being built is to reduce the storm surge and improve water quality to Jacobs
Creek. The best management practices designed and implemented at these sites collect the stormwater and
provide for alternate ways for the water to be recycled into the water cycle. The stormwater controls mitigate
for the water by infiltration and evapotranspiration. Evapotranspiration is the sum of evaporation and plant
transpiration from the Earth’s land surface to atmosphere.
Some changes will affect the downtown Scottdale area
in the coming years. A Green Streets project will be
constructed on Pittsburgh Street and adjacent streets.
The construction will utilize Stormwater BMP’s to help
reduce the stormwater runoff. In addition, the controls
will minimize the pollutants from water running off
streets and parking lots.
If you have any questions or interests in these projects
please contact the Jacobs Creek Watershed Association
at the Borough office at 724-887-8220 , ext. 3 or at
[email protected].

Scottdale Historical Society
The Scottdale Historical Society, Inc., incorporated in July 1987 and was re-organized in 2005. Its mission
is to collect, preserve and archive the Scottdale area’s rich cultural, industrial and architectural history for
the enjoyment and education of present and future generations. The society owns and works to maintain and
restore the Loucks Homestead at 527 North Chestnut Street, one of the original homes in the borough. It is
available for overnight stays and small gatherings. Our most recent work focuses on the homestead, with a
kitchen renovation project and work on the roof and gables recently completed.
Scottdale is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. This listing is the first step in preserving
our town, once one of the richest towns in America. The founding board initiated the Coal and Coke
Heritage Festival and purchased the Peter Loucks Homestead with the proceeds of that festival. It also
bought the ground and built the gazebo in downtown Scottdale.We will work with the local government
and will help formulate preservation
ordinances and raise awareness of the many
historically significant properties. We
will pursue the preservation of as many of
the community’s historic artifacts, stories
and properties as possible. We will work
with area organizations to promote our
beautiful town, with its tree-lined streets and
walkable neighborhoods. Our annual events
traditionally include a summer porch tour as

to raze the structures on the northeast side of Pittsburgh Street and North
Broadway; including Grant, Everson, and east side of Spring street. The
renewal project was to construct a mall onto the cleared sight. This 1970

Chamber
of
Commerce
Beginning as the Scottdale Merchant Association, a group of
local businesses met together to share ideas and plan community
events. In order to better reach its goals and to serve the town,
the Merchant Association decided that becoming an official
Chamber of Commerce was the next route to take. Upon doing
so, the Chamber was able to raise funds; coupled with grants,
to do projects such as purchase new, decorative light poles and
Christmas decorations for downtown. They also were able to
donate the Tottie Kiefer walkway and archway.
Some of the events they host throughout the year include
the Winter Light Celebration, the Easter Egg Hunt, and Lunch
In the Park. Once a month, from September to May, a student from Southmoreland High School is chosen
to receive the Scottie Scholar award. With this honor, the student is taken to lunch by a member of the
Chamber and awarded a gift card for their success, hard work, and achievements. The Chamber also does
ribbon cutting for new businesses, sponsors sidewalk sales, and a community yard sale.
The Chamber is always open to new ideas and suggestions. They would love to see the organization
grow and have more involvement from the community as a whole. There is no need to own a business to
volunteer or take part. Individuals are more than welcome to come aboard and join the fun! Please consider
joining our efforts to help keep Scottdale a place people love and to make it better.
Geyer Performing Arts Center
Presents Shakespeare Abridged
In Loucks Park
Director Biography:
Katy Pretz has been performing and volunteering at the Geyer
Performing Arts Center since 2011. Teacher, librarian, and aficionado
of the Bard, she has read the complete works of Shakespeare, taken on
roles such as Hamlet’s mother Gertrude and Lady Macbeth, and enjoys
attending Renaissance Festivals across the country. She even once
re-enacted King Lear with toy raptors!
Show Description:
A handful of actors, one dead playwright, and 37 plays, all in under
one hour. In this fun for all outdoor theatrical experience, we manage
to compress the complete works of Shakespeare into sixty minutes
of high-speed over-the-top hilarity. Knowledge about Shakespeare’s
works is helpful, but not at all necessary. All that is needed is time
enough to watch and someone to dial 911 in case you pass out from
laughing so much.
Show Times:

2:30 p.m. - Main show at ballfield
5:00 p.m. - Preview at gazebo

been involved with school activities such as Southmoreland Senior Video, Reading
Team, SEAS club, Spanish Club, Mock Trial, SLC (President 12th grade), Journalism
Club, Science Club, and a Co- Editor while working on publishing a Literary
Magazine for Southmoreland High School. She was involved with the community by

in Biology at Seton Hill University and then join their Physicians Assistant program. Zoe’s grandmother
being diagnosed with Dementia has influenced her life by giving her the determination to live her life to
the fullest. Zoe went on to say “her disease has impacted my life in every aspect, making me realize what
truly is important in family, friends, and life.” The other influences in Zoe’s life have been her mother,
Melissa Farrell, and her two sisters, Quinn and Rory. Zoe said “Both of my sisters have impacted my life
by giving me a sense of companionship and friendship. Those two girls will always have my back, and I
theirs.” Zoe’s mom has taught her morals and the life lessons most people learn when they start living on
their own. Zoe learned to be independent, strong willed, and self-reliant under her guidance.
