A small crowd gathered to witness the dedication ceremony held at the Hampton Township Police Building on October 10th to honor the efforts of
Hampton High School Senior and 10-year Boy
Scout, Daniel O’Connor for his Eagle Scout Award
Project. “Growing up in today’s society, I believe
the police don’t get the respect and thanks they
deserve. They risk their lives every day to keep us
safe, and I thought this would be a great way for
the community to give back and show our appreci(Continued on page 3)

ation to the police officers for all their
efforts and valor,” said an impassioned O’Connor. “And I want to
thank my Troop 138 from Glenshaw
Bethlehem Lutheran for all their help
and support in making this project a
reality.”
His efforts culminated in the installation of a large sandstone rock
placed outside of the Police Station.
The rock is mounted with a bronze
plaque inscribed with the poem
“Tribute to Police Sacrifice” by an
unknown author. The poem details
the unique selfless courage and acts
required by the police officers in the
line of duty such as: putting on their
ballistic vests and guns to face the day
when everyone else is at home, warm
and awaiting their Thanksgiving or
Christmas dinner; paroling the area no
matter what type of weather; not just
striving to succeed but to survive;
when you tell your family “see you
tonight” as you leave for work, we tell
our family that we pray we will; and
an error by you means a demotion
when an error by us means a funeral.
Chief Dan Connolly who is set to
retire next month said, “When O’Connor approached me, I thought wow-that is going to be something! I’m
tickled and really honored by it. In all
my 41 years of service, no one has
ever done anything like this. I think it
will get people’s attention. It’s so
public and so lasting. My officers and
I certainly appreciate it, and it makes
us feel good!” Captain Michael Pecora is slated to replace Chief Connolly
when he vacates the post.
“It’s not often young people outwardly express appreciation for the
police force. It was a very appropriate
enhancement to the property. I was
awestruck when I finally saw it and
the message. Thank you O’Connor
for a great job!” commended Hampton Township Council President Victor Son.
The project took three months to
complete, and O’Connor canvassed
approximately 100 local residents and
businesses for donations to cover the
cost of the sandstone and plaque. In
the future, O’Connor plans to attend
college to study music.

Hampton Resident wins
Prestigious servePGH Award
T
by Autumn Edmiston
he servePGH initiative was developed by Mayor
Luke Ravenstahl’s office to engage citizens to help
in addressing Pittsburgh’s greatest challenges and
recognize the impact of volunteers and community organizations. The Citizen Service Award honors community
leaders who have contributed exceptional levels of service
and inspiration.
Doreen Tumminello, a BNY Mellon employee and
Hampton Twp. resident, received the Citizen Service
Award for her leadership role in fundraising efforts to benefit the Alzheimer’s Association - Greater Pittsburgh area.
For the past five years, Doreen has been Captain of the
BNY Mellon Team for the Alzheimer’s Association Walk
and has led the team to be named “#1 Corporate Team” in
their fundraising efforts. Doreen explained, “Both of my
parents had Alzheimer's, so my three sisters and I know
how devastating this disease can be. I felt I wanted to
make a difference in the fight against Alzheimer’s.”
Tumminello doesn’t limit her volunteerism only to the
Alzheimer’s organization. She teaches at the Kid’s Club
for Allegheny Center Alliance Church, has worked with
Mother’s Voice - a program sponsored by Lydia’s Place, a
nonprofit agency that helps female offenders and their children, and has been a Foster Parent and Team Leader for the
Animal Rescue League.
As a community leader, Doreen offers this advice to
encourage others to become involved and give back. “Pray
and listen to God's voice and He will direct you to start
giving yourself to others in positive ways.”

There’s an APP for That!
by Autumn Edmiston
For Gene Cahill, Hampton High School alumni for the class
2007, that phrase has particular meaning. A research programmer by profession, Cahill now works at the Software Engineering
Institute at CMU in the field of advanced mobile systems.
While in college, Gene received a grant to research the Android Development Platform from a local bank. Gene enjoyed
that project so much that during his senior year at John Carroll
University, he developed "Assignment Planner" to help track
assignments, due dates, homework, projects, courses, classes and
grades. He found the app so helpful that he decided to share it
with others.
Gene Cahill
Cahill explained, “I uploaded it to the market never expecting
it to grow. But, the app became so popular it made it to #13 in
its category. I continue to receive feedback and make enhancements to Assignment Planner. Ideas for apps that I can
apply for personal use are of particular interest to me.”
Gene plans to start graduate school in January and expects additional ideas will present themselves to develop apps
in helping him with productivity, organization and other educational focused needs. Who knows what apps will come
from Cahill’s imagination during grad school?

Tis the Season…
Or Always the Season for Cranberries
CELEBRATING
20 YEARS OF SERVICE
by John Rizzo
N
ow that November is here and it’s beginning to feel like
Autumn; cranberry season is in full bloom. Cranberries
are synonymous with the holiday season, but thanks to
frozen and dried cranberries, this has become a multi-billion dollar
year round industry.
Cranberries grow on vines in what they call bogs -marshy beds
that are generally found near wetlands.

The harvest is all but complete in the New England states;
beginning in mid September and running through mid November. There are two methods of harvest –wet and dry. Walk
behind machines remove the berries from the vines and fill
burlap bags in a dry harvest. These are often removed from the
bogs in helicopters. From there they are graded based upon
color and their ability to bounce. The firm berries will bounce
and the soft will not. These are packaged and sold fresh.
During a wet harvest, the bogs are literally flooded which
cause the cranberries to float. “Egg-beaters”, as they are referred to in the industry, stir up the water in the bogs and cranberries drop from the vines. Booms are used to pull the berries
to one area in which they are lifted by a conveyor or pumped
into trucks for delivery. These cranberries are primarily used
for sauce, juice, and dried.
I find the dried cranberries can add a burst of flavor to a lot
of dishes. They especially compliment salads with color and
flavor.

School. He decided to retire as the soccer
coach, because he is nearing retirement in
his teaching career and is interested in
pursuing coaching at a different level;
namely college.
In 28 years of coaching girls’ varsity
soccer, Mr. Christy boasts 434 wins, 120
losses, and 38 ties. In 2009, he recorded
his 400th win, a Pennsylvania state record.
Other notable memories include WPIAL
championships at Fox Chapel in 1985 and
at Hampton in 1994 and 1995.
This year’s girls’ team had a regular
season record of 11-7-1. They advanced
to the playoffs, beating Fox Chapel in the
first round 2-0 and losing to Peters Twp.1-
0 in the second round. The team gave Mr.
Christy a season to remember.
The players show their respect and
admiration for Mr. Christy. Sophomore
goalie, Alyssa Hunkele admires his cool,
“Mr. Christy always knows what to do
and he never seems angry or upset. He
always seems calm."
Sophomore sweeper, Lexi Meglio
expressed her appreciation, “Mr. Christy
has changed and shaped the HGS program
to where it is today. I have grown up
hearing his name, and I have been truly
honored to have gotten the chance to be
coached by someone with his knowledge
of the game of soccer. He has touched
many people's lives throughout the years,
including myself, to make us all smarter
and better players. He will truly be
missed, but never forgotten.”
Mr. Christy reflects on his youth
coaching experience – “the tremendous
rapport and admiration I have for all the
women and men I’ve had the pleasure of
coaching during that time period. It’s
incredible to see what they have all been
up to since their playing days!” Mr.
Christy is appreciative of his assistant
coaches, especially Bill Paholich who has
been there since Mr. Christy became a
head coach.
Senior captain and midfielder,
Vanessa Ceravolo summed up her experience, “It has been a great pleasure being
coached by Mr. Christy, one of the best,
most dedicated, and well-respected coach-

of experience and knowledge of the game is what
have made us better soccer players. Mr.
Christy not only taught us the game, he
also instilled the virtues of teamwork,

offense and defense have scored a combined 273 points this season, while only
allowing 38 points! For the Senior
Dawgs, this will be a bittersweet game as
the culmination of all of their hard work
and preparation will come to an end this
Saturday when they take on Mars Blue in
the UYFL Super Bowl. The boys are
gearing up and looking forward to a great
rematch against Mars Blue.
The HJFA offers an instructional football program for boys, ages 6 to 12. The
organization provides the boys with an

Hampton Township resident James Mall was selected by
his peers for inclusion in the Best Lawyers in America 2013

Because Best Lawyers is
based on an exhaustive peerreview survey in which more
than 36,000 leading attorneys
cast almost 4.4 million votes
on the legal abilities of other
lawyers in their practice areas, and because lawyers are
not required or allowed to pay
a fee to be listed, inclusion in Best Lawyers is considered a
singular honor. Congratulations to James Mall!

Teach Your Children Well
A
Gail Scott
Gail & Cody
by Jan McCune,
Owner of Doggone Happy Pet Service
s the lyrics say, “teach your children well”, that applies
to teaching them about dogs too, even if you don’t own
a dog. Recently I was walking two dogs when a school
bus stopped and dropped off young children, probably between
the ages of six and eight. As often happens, the kids were all
over the street and most unfortunately unsupervised. The kids
ran past us and were just being kids. I kept the dogs on a short
leash and they were managing the chaos well. Then all of a sudden, one of the kids
turned around, bent down
Ivy smiling towards the dogs’ faces
and screamed at the dogs.
Fortunately, these two
dogs’ reaction was to turn
and look towards me for
instruction on what to do
and how to handle this.
Thank goodness they did.
In another situation, a
fearful dog could have
snapped at the little boy
and possibly made contact. And, I’m sure the parent of the little boy would have
blamed the dog had he made contact. My reason for using this
as a subject is to try and remind parents to teach their children
that dogs have teeth and they will use them to protect themselves
at any time. Even when an adult is walking them on leash outdoors. Please instruct your children that if someone is walking a
dog, to leave room around the dog in case the dog doesn’t like
children or is nervous. Remind them as I said, dogs have teeth
and will use them if your child frightens them.

Hampton Junior Selected as One
Young World Reporter
by Autumn Edmiston
Hampton Junior, Madeline (Maddie) Adamczyk, was selected as one of 36 reporters in the region, for One Young World, a
global youth leadership summit held in Pittsburgh in October.
“Our goal is to provide an intensive youth journalism project
that engages high school students in globally focused, fact-based
reporting and well-reasoned opinion pieces,” said Jennifer
Snyder-Duch, associate professor of communication at Carlow
University and co-founder of the YMAP coalition. “The One
Young World summit presents a unique opportunity to immerse
local students in global issues and help them hone their journalism skills.”
One Young World, which
has the largest representation of
countries other than the Olympics
and United Nations, attracted
1,500 delegates from 186 countries
to discuss the most pressing global
issues, tackled daily by our
world’s leaders. One Young
World was launched in London in
2010.
YMAP partnered with the
World Affairs Council and One
Young World to offer a “Media
Boot Camp” that equipped high
school students from 26 school
Reserved Seating: adults $7 & students $5
districts in Southwestern PennsylGeneral Admission: adults $6 & students $4
vania to cover the summit as youth
reporters. During the two-day boot
camp in October, supported by
The Heinz Endowments and a
Spark Award from The Sprout Fund, students learned skills relatto storytelling and story development, use of various media –
Classifieds are free in the Hampton News ed
including video, audio, photography, blogs, writing and infographics – and publishing.
“The Media Boot Camp taught me how to write a story with
a deadline. During camp we worked independently and in
groups. I chose education and health as my topics. Attending
the breakout sessions and
home dinner, enabled me to
interact with future leaders
who addressed these topics,”
stated Adamczyk.

David Tusick is 30th District Endorsed Candidate
by the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
T
oo many of us feel the time of admirable
and respectable politics has passed. We can
remember when the gloves were removed
after a campaign and our elected officials would
work for the betterment of their respective communities for the common good. You could have a conversation with a friend of different ideology and agree to
find common ground.
David Tusick is a candidate that believes in that
ideal and is fighting to bring it back to our commonwealth. His roots run deep as a 3rd generation member
of the 30th district and a graduate of Fox Chapel Area
High School. He is honored to have the opportunity
to be elected to represent the 30th District in Harrisburg.
In David's professional career, he has founded
and managed several businesses while earning his
degrees in Economics and Marketing from Robert
Morris University. Currently, he is co-founder and a
partner of Optimal, an advertising agency. Additionally, he sits on the board of a non-profit focused on
education.
Endorsed by the PITTSBURGH POST-GAZETTE
as the 30th District’s Candidate of Choice, it states
David T. Tusick has the potential to go onto great
things.” David Tusick is asking for your vote this
November. Tusick's campaign platform consists of 5
main points:
 A Voice for Small Businesses
 Fighting for People with Disabilities
 Restoring Funds to Public Education
 Supporting our Aging Population
 Reforming Property Tax
It's time we put some new faces in office. Tusick knows
the issues affecting our community and will focus on
what's right for us, not a specific party. This year, at the
bottom of the ticket, you will have your easiest choice.
Vote Tusick.
