East Stroudsburg University’s College of Education was recognized by Colonial Intermediate Unit 20 (CIU20) with an Excellence in Education Award. The College of Education was honored for the Aspiring Educator Pathway Project (AEPP).

The vision of ESU’s AEPP is to proactively combat the education workforce shortage, by working collaboratively with local school entities and community partners in the development of future teacher clubs and developing cohorts of students to learn more about the profession of education.

We found out that the lady that works at the alcohol section in 300 Lincoln Ave. Giant is missing. She was last seen leaving work 10pm yesterday in an her old Jeep Liberty (olive green color) and has been missing since then. She did not report to work this morning. The workers there already called the hospitals with no luck. Unfortunately, that's all the information I have. I will update this post if I get more info. If anyone notices anything, please call the police. She is 55, short hair, white.

Confirmed with Paradise Twp municipal secretary, DCNR, and the person in charge of gypsy moth spraying...the helicopter activity in our area is due to DCNR spraying for gypsy moths. They use Bacillus Thuringiensis Kurstaki (BTK), a biological pesticide that targets caterpillars in a very particular stage of development. They're spraying trees, not meadows. That was just an FYI.

BUSHKILL, PA- Looking for a fun day paddling on the river but don’t have a second car to leave downstream? Want to do a long one-way bike trip on the McDade Trail? Well, at Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area, there’s a shuttle for that, and it’s free.  

The National Park Service, in partnership with Monroe County Transit Authority (MCTA), offers a free shuttle service to help reduce congestion in busy areas and help visitors and their gear get around. The shuttle operates within the park on Saturdays between Memorial Day weekend and Labor Day weekend. (NOTE: The shuttle will not be operating on Sundays this year.)
