    I often write in my column about the generosity and caring of people in our Valley. It fills my heart every time it happens. On Sunday, April 6, I felt that beautiful spirit at Isabella in Selinsgrove as our community came together to honor the memory of Tabitha (Tabby) Welshans who died on March 17 of brain cancer at age 11. Tabby fought a valiant battle after her diagnosis and throughout her treatment. She believed that she was going to recover. Her optimism and love touched all who knew her.

    As I drove to the Rusty Rail in Mifflinburg, I thought about the marvelous evening ahead. The Camp Koala 14th Annual Fundraising Gala is a wonderful event that helps grieving children in our area. The event, held Saturday night, April 5, was filled with fun, food, music, and people who wanted to help this important organization. Grieving is difficult for all of us. Children have an even harder time trying to understand the loss and their feelings. This is where Camp Koala steps in to help.

    It’s always a joy to be On the Scene at Dirk Sojka’s Slam Dunk, with Bucknell Basketball; a milestone with Slam Dunk Number 20, held Sunday, Jan. 5. No matter how frosty and blustery it is outside Sojka Pavilion, the indoor atmosphere exudes warmth, fun, and friendship. This is especially true when Slam Dunk is part of the basketball game. The Bison played Colgate, and although we weren’t sure of the outcome, the Bison beat the Raiders 66-60.

    My mouth was watering as I anticipated all the “food, glorious food” at Rusty Rail in Mifflinburg for the 14th annual Cookin’ for a Cause, formerly known as Cookin’ Men. This enticing event was held on Thursday, Oct. 17. The event raised funds for the Humphreys WellSpan Center for Breast Health. I arrived early and checked in with volunteers Carol Waugher, Director of Compliance at WellSpan Evangelical and Linda Shaffer, a physical therapist. I looked around the room and saw a pink fantasyland.

    Our public libraries are treasures. They offer much more than books for all ages. I was in third grade the first time I went to our library branch in Philly. I was in awe. So many books! I got lost among the stacks and thought there was no better place than Bushrod Library. I was thinking about my experience as I headed to the Public Library for Union County’s 34th Evening Among the Stacks annual auction on Saturday evening, September 21.
