The Zimmerman Committee is hosting a dress down on Friday, February 23rd. It’s $2 for students and $5 for staff members. Since green is the color of kidney disease awareness, the dress down on Friday will be to raise awareness about the condition.

The Zimmerman Committee was named after Mr. Zimmerman and it was formed to show our support for him on his long and hard journey.

The Future Medical Professionals of Stroudsburg (FMPS) was formed to inspire students to enter the medical field when they start to look for possible careers. All the money raised on Friday will be used as scholarship money for the class of 2024.

Recently a witness came forward with a detailed account and description that verified Madeleine Leonard was told what happened to her husband, John Leonard, Sr. and why he was murdered. Madeleine said she was going to the Police after finding out what happened to John Leonard. Because of this, she was lured out and killed in Mt. Pocono.

The witness also said, "everyone in the Barrett Township Community knew the facts behind both murders but no one ever came forward to talk about it because they feared for their lives from these people involved".

A township ordinance that limits firing guns to indoor and outdoor shooting ranges and zoning that significantly restricts where the ranges can be located do not violate the Second Amendment, Pennsylvania’s Supreme Court ruled Wednesday.

The man who challenged Stroud Township’s gun laws, Jonathan Barris, began to draw complaints about a year after he moved to the home in the Poconos in 2009 and installed a shooting range on his 5-acre (2.02-hectare) property. An officer responding to a complaint said the range had a safe backstop but the targets were in line with a large box store in a nearby shopping center.
