Camp Trexler, the 755-acre Boy Scout camp with a history stretching 90 years, sold for $7.8 million.

Camp Trexler, which is being sold by the Minsi Trail Council, has drawn about 10 bidders, including the Pocono Heritage Land Trust and the company formerly known as Waste Management.

The Pocono Township Board of Commissioners implemented a one mill tax increase for 2023 to address continued stagnant revenues, an ongoing budget deficit and significant personnel-driven cost increases. In addition, the Township has been taking definitive steps to plan for the renovation and/or relocation of the Township municipal facilities.

In real numbers, one mill is equivalent to $100 for every $100,000 in assessed value. Therefore, if Monroe County assigns a property an assessed value of $200,000, a one mill tax increase is $200.

Art Teacher
J.T. Lambert Intermediate School

This year, we will be exploring concepts of art and design in so many different ways!  We will have days where we draw, days where we sculpt, and days where we paint.  Some days are set aside for sketchbook prompts- and you can draw almost anything on those days! Other days are set aside to learn about new and exciting artists that are shaping the landscape of art in today's world. We always do a totally unique project on those days, too! This is not your typical art class!  We even face off against each other in special art challenges!  I am a teacher who loves playing games, and so whenever possible, I turn learning into game play!

 Sketchbooks are a fundamental part of the artist's toolkit, where an artist can record ideas, work creatively, and can be free to make mistakes without any pressure to be 'perfect'.  Many artists use sketchbooks on a daily basis.  In fact, if you draw every day you will almost certainly improve.  We would like to see our students using sketchbooks in class every day to plan their projects, develop ideas, and respond to creative prompts- just to get them thinking 'outside the box' with more confidence!

As if all the fun stuff we have planned in our regular curriculum isn’t enough, from time to time a special event pops up, and we jump at the chance to try something new or participate in something being celebrated in our school community, or around the world!  Here are a few special events we’re already planning on joining:

Dot Day on Thursday, September 15- live streaming with Lehman Intermediate , teaming up with #PoconoKindnessRocks. Students will be creating 'Kindness Rocks' and will be able to add their rock to our rock garden, right outside of JTL Administrative offices (visible as you walk to the front doors).
