Fatal motor vehicle incident on Christmas Day subject of multi-jurisdictional investigation

On Friday, December 25, 2020, at approximately 1:30 AM, members of the Pocono Township Police Department responded to the scene of a single motor vehicle accident with entrapment on Lower Swiftwater Road. Officers discovered a blue Ford Explorer off the roadway, lying on its roof. 

One of the passengers of that vehicle, Jobanni Peralta, age 49, a resident of New York, had managed to extricate himself and advised the officers that three other persons remained inside the vehicle.

A Quiet Time to Reflect on the Year’s Accomplishments

The Preservation & Dissemination of Knowledge

Hello Folks, Aunt Eunice here. Now that our final fundraiser of the year Old Time Christmas is over, we enter Quiet Valley’s only truly quiet phase. The end of December and the month of January are the staff’s time to reflect, to evaluate the past year and to look ahead. This is when assessment on the programming and events of 2020 will take place. What worked, what didn’t? Are there programs that just don’t serve a purpose anymore, can they be tweaked or is it best to set them aside. Are there holes in the programs and activities we offer? This kind of review is what brought about offerings such as our Preschool program which takes place each spring and fall. It brought about the Farm to Table Experience which eventually morphed into the Farm to Table Dinner. Small summer events came about more than a decade ago due to this process.

November Observances: Thanksgiving & Veterans Day

November is About Transitions

Hello Folks, Aunt Eunice here. November has not only arrived, but is half over already. This month, more than all the rest of them makes me feel like I am running to catch up! Helping to get Quiet Valley ready for our Old Time Christmas while simultaneously planning multiple family events at home can be tad overwhelming. My family has quite a few birthdays this month including mine. Throw Thanksgiving into the mix with six birthday parties and you have a very full month. I feel like this is a month of transition as we move from fall into winter, as the leaves finish falling off the trees, the last of the lawn mowing takes place. Daylight Savings time is over so of course it gets dark earlier. The colder temperatures at night might have us inching up the thermostat. By the time I get home at night it is quite dark and instead of going for a walk I now curl up with a book. It won’t be long until the seed catalogs start arriving!
