Defending Our ForestDealing with the Emerald Ash Borer (EAB)

Ash Tree ThreatAn unprecedented threat to our community forest has arrived in Delaware County. Having already devastated forests in Michigan and throughout the mid-West, the Emerald Ash Borer (EAB) has been inexorably moving east for several years, leaving millions of destroyed ash trees in its wake.

This shiny deep green, half- inch long adult borer seeks out ash trees to lay its eggs. They develop into larvae which ravage the trees' tender tissue beneath their bark. The borer is a danger to our community forest because ash trees are common in home landscapes, parks, school and church campuses and commercial properties. Trees attacked by this borer have virtually a 100 percent mortality rate. Once a tree is infected, there is no way to save it.

A lot of Pennsylvania Townships are developing a strategy to confront this menace and limit its destruction of trees on Township property. It is critically important for homeowners to also have a plan to manage this serious assault on ash trees on their private property. It is important to be pro-active, there is no time to lose.

If you are not familiar with what ash trees look like, (see picture inset) check the Internet for photographs and descriptions of ash trees. Or, ask a knowledgeable neighbor, a Master Gardener,

Responding to the EAB threat 1. Determine whether you have any ash trees on your property.

a member of the township Tree Commission, or a professional arborist to help you identify your trees.

if you have one or more ash trees. Use a triage system: identify any healthy ashes on the property that are important to the landscape; note other uninfected ash trees; then note any ashes that show signs of infection.

Identify and cut down any infected trees as soon as possible. Do not wait for them to die, because ashes are brittle and rapidly disintegrate dangerously when they are dead.

Wonderful big ash trees on your property that are healthy and contribute beauty, shade, wildlife shelter, air quality, stormwater control and climate moderation to your landscape, are worth protecting. They must be treated with insecticide before the EAB infects them. (See below)

Since, over the next few years the borer will kill any ash tree not treated, you have really only two options for your other, less significant but healthy ash trees. Cut down your remaining healthy ashes now to avoid harboring the borer. They will eventually have to be taken down anyway. Or, wait for the borer to arrive and infect them, then have them removed.

each of your ash trees over the months ahead for symptoms of EAB. Look for dieback of branches high in the canopy and new branch sprouts at the base of its trunk. Check the bark for D-shaped exit

2. Develop a plan

3. Immediately cut down infected, dying ash trees.

4. Arrange for protection of your healthy ash trees worth saving.

5. Choose an option for handling small, uninfected trees.

6. Regularly monitor

holes or bare spots where the bark has fallen away showing channels in the tissue made by larvae. Check trees where woodpeckers seem to be focused. Keep your eyes out for the shiny green, adult borer.

You must protect your larger healthy ash trees immediately, or you will eventually lose them to this borer. Consult a certified arborist about pesticide treatments available to prevent Emerald Ash Borer infestation. Insecticides must be applied before the trees are infected and must be renewed either yearly or every other year, depending on the product and type of treatment used. Some treatments involve drenching the soil or injections into the soil beneath the tree, others involve injections into the base of the tree trunk.

Yes, having a large ash tree treated to prevent EAB will likely cost some serious money. However, not as much as having to have arborists come to take down a large tree that has died of EAB infection a few years from now. In that case further costs will involve losing the wonderful tree canopy that has protected your landscape, reduced your air conditioning bill and sheltered the wildlife that lives there. There will also be the cost of purchasing and replanting a young replacement tree. In some cases arborists will lower the price if several trees in small area are to be treated, so check with your neighbors to see if they are considering this option.

Protecting ash trees

CAUTION: Do not bring either harvested wood or tree debris from storm events elsewhereinto your yard. This wood may be infested with the Emerald ash Borer.

Carol H. Axelrod Memorial Blood Drive

The Carol H. Axelrod Memorial Blood Drive will hold its fifth annual blood drive in Radnor Township on Tuesday, May 10, from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., at the Radnor Township Municipal Building in Wayne.

Carol Axelrod was a Main Line resident who became dependent on regular transfusions of blood and platelets while receiving treatment for multiple myeloma, an incurable cancer of the blood and bone marrow. The transfusions she received allowed her to continue to live independently, with good quality of life, and enjoy more time with family and friends.

After Carol died, our family started holding blood drives in her memory as a way of "giving back" to the blood-donor community that had made it possible for her to receive all of the transfusions she needed during her treatment. Today, our mission is to help other patients and their families spend more time together by doing our part to ensure that blood products are always available for those who need them. Our goal is to help the blood donors at our drives have an enjoyable and positive donation experience.

According to blood-collection agencies, approximately 38% of the U.S. population is eligible to give blood, but only about 10% of those who are eligible actually donate. To help illustrate this, think of Citizens Bank Park. If every seat in the Phillies' stadium were filled, there would be 43,651 fans watching the game. Approximately 16,587 members of that fan population may be eligible to donate blood, but only about 1,658 of them actually would donate.

Approximately every two seconds, someone in the U.S. needs blood. So if that Phillies game at Citizens Bank Park took three hours to play, during the game approximately 5,400 people would need a blood transfusion - and that is more than three times the number of eligible fans who would donate.

It is important to us to create a warm, welcoming, and even fun atmosphere at our blood drives, and we are proud when we hear from donors that they have enjoyed donating with us, or that they intend to donate again - whether at one of our drives or elsewhere - because they had a good experience at our blood drive. Our family saw first-hand what a difference blood donation makes to hospital patients and their families, and that is why it is so important to us that all of our donors leave our drives with the feeling that they want to continue to donate. As a special thank you, every presenting donor at the Carol H. Axelrod Memorial Blood Drive on May 10 will receive a gift bag, free entry into prize drawings, and special refreshments.

Our family has also created the Community CHAllenge program, through which we raise awareness and support for local nonprofit organizations, ensuring that our blood drives can have an immediate and direct impact in the communities where they take place. For every unit of blood collected at the blood drive on May 10, we will make donations to DMAX Foundation, which is based in Radnor and works to eliminate stigma and encourage safe, caring conversations with young people about mental health issues and emotional struggles, and to Delaware County Special Olympics, which provides year-round sports training and competition opportunities for children and adults with intellectual disabilities. If the blood drive collection surpasses last year's total of 131 units, we will double our donations to both groups.

To date, our blood drives in Radnor Township have collected enough blood products to help more than 1,300 transfusion recipients. We are grateful to the community in and around Radnor that has allowed us to honor Carol's memory by helping so many other patients and their families, and we look forward to seeing that number grow at our milestone fifth-anniversary drive at this location on May 10!

To schedule a donation appointment for the Carol H. Axelrod Memorial Blood Drive on May 10, visit www.chablooddrive.org or call 1-800-RED-CROSS (mention sponsor code "CHAMemorial"). For more information about supporting the drive by contributing refreshments or drawing prizes, email [email protected].

Smoke & Carbon Monoxide Detectors - Simple Steps Save LivesSmoke and carbon monoxide detectors save lives every day, but it's important to choose, install and maintain detectors properly. There are three major types of smoke detector systems. The safest system is an interconnected, hard wired, battery backed up system. If one detector activates, all detectors go into alarm. Interconnected wireless, battery operated detectors provide the same level of activation as hard wired detectors, but are dependent on batteries for primary operation. Many announce which detector is in alarm, which can help identify the problem area. Wireless detectors may provide additional functionality, based on connection to a home network and the internet. The most common system in older homes is stand alone, battery operated detectors. The downside to these detectors is related to battery problems, and the possibility that a distant detector (basement) might not awaken a sleeping family on the second floor, in the very early stage of a fire.

Install smoke detectors on every level in the home and in every room outfitted for sleeping. They should not be installed within 10 feet of cooking or heating appliances or close to a bathroom door to avoid being set off by steam. They should not be installed near air conditioning or heating duct outlets or returns. Detectors installed in bedrooms should be within a few feet of the bedroom door and basement detectors should be close to the stairs. Detectors on a ceiling should not be less than 12 inches from a wall and detectors on a wall should be no closer than 12 inches to the ceiling.

Test batteries every month using the test button and replace batteries at least once a year. Periodically clean detectors with compressed air or a vacuum and replace them when they are 10 years old. Read the manufacturer's instructions and the information on the back of your detector. Know the difference between a low battery beep, typically every 15 to 30 seconds, and an alarm beep, which is continuous.

A carbon monoxide detector is required in every home and should be installed outside the sleeping rooms. More than one detector can provide a valuable increase in protection. The detector may be hard wired, usually in a combination smoke and carbon monoxide detector. Many are plug-in detectors with battery backup and an LED readout. Others are simple battery operated units. All of the maintenance precautions of smoke detectors apply equally to carbon monoxide detectors.

If your smoke detector or carbon monoxide detector goes into alarm, you, your family and pets should leave the building and call 911. Do not re-enter the building or reset the alarm until the fire department has identified the problem. Remember that carbon

monoxide is not visible and is odorless.

Avoid Electrical Hazards

Avoid Fire Hazards

Keep the generator and your hands dry. Operate on a dry surface under an open, canopy- like structure.

Plug appliances directly into the generator or use a heavy-duty outdoor-rated extension cord. Make sure the extension cord is free of cuts or tears and the plug has all 3 prongs, especially a grounding pin.

plug the generator into a wall outlet. This practice, known as backfeeding, can cause a fatal electrocution risk to utility workers and others served by the same utility transformer.

If necessary, to connect a generator from house wiring to power appliances, have a qualified electrician install appropriate equipment. Or, your utility company may be able to install an appropriate transfer switch.

Before refueling the generator, turn it off and let it cool. Fuel spilled on hot engine parts could ignite.

Always store fuel outside of living areas in properly labeled, non-glass containers.

Store fuel away from any fuel-burning appliance.

NEVER

Generator SafetyAbout 3,500 Americans die each year and around 18,300 are injured in fires that could have been prevented. Many of these fires occur during the colder weather, when people are indoors more and power outages are more frequent. Portable generators are useful when temporary or remote electric power is needed, but they can be hazardous. The primary hazards to avoid when using them are carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning, electric shock or electrocution, and fire. Here are some simple steps to prevent loss of life and property resulting from improper use of portable generators.

Always use generators outdoors, away from doors, windows, and vents.

use generators in homes, garages, basements, crawl spaces, or other enclosed or partially enclosed areas, even with ventilation.

Follow manufacturer's instructions for the use of a generator.

Install and maintain battery-operated or plug-in (with battery backup) carbon monoxide a l a r m s i n y o u r h o m e , f o l l o w i n g manufacturer's instructions.

Avoid Carbon Monoxide Hazards

NEVER

If you must connect a generator to house wiring, have an electrician add the appropriate equipment. Your utility company may be able to put in an appropriate transfer switch as well.

One of the best ways to protect yourself and your family is to have working smoke alarms. Smoke alarms should be located on each level of your home.

Prepare an escape plan and practice it often. Make sure everyone in your family knows at least two (2) escape routes from each room.

Air QualityKNOW

FACTSTHE Ozone, also known as “smog,” is a harmful pollutant that forms on the hot days of summer when there is bright sunshine and little breeze. Ozone pollution is particularly harmful to children because it damages lungs while they are still growing.

Exercise is important to a healthy lifestyle and especially important for growing children, but on days when the AQI reaches Code Orange or Code Red levels, parents should limit their children’s strenuous activities. The key to managing the negative effects of air pollution is to limit exposure to environmental pollutants.

By knowing the AQI, parents can be prepared for days when air pollution might aggravate breathing conditions or damage developing lungs. If a child has asthma or other breathing disorder, knowing the AQI may even prevent hospital visits or missed school days.

Encourage your school’s nurse or administrators to monitor the AQI and manage students’ activities accordingly.

Fine Particle Pollution (PM 2.5), or soot, is made up of tiny particles of liquids, dust, and metals that can be breathed deep into the lungs. Particle pollution is especially dangerous for children because it can cause long-term damage to the lungs, increase hospital visits, and aggravate existing breathing conditions such as asthma.

PROTECT HEALTHYOUR

Ozone is a particularly difficult problem for the estimated 140,000 children in the region suffering from pediatric asthma because ozone irritates lung tissue and constricts breathing passages, making breathing difficult and sometimes painful. Ozone exposure diminishes lung capacity and increases the likelihood of lung infections.

PREVENT POLLUTIONAIR Preventing air pollution in the first place is the best way to protect the health of the entire community and the environment. Everyone can take a few simple steps to prevent air pollution, especially on days when air quality is poor.

Things we can all do!1. Take public transportation2. Save energy in our homes3. Recycle

On poor air quality days, these actions are especially effective:1. Carpool with your friends2. Don’t use gas-powered lawn

equipment3. Avoid the drive-thru

puree.6. Add the rest of the ingredients and process. 7. Line a 9" cake pan with parchment paper. Butter and flour the paper (for gluten

free - replace the flour with ground almonds).8. Pour the cake batter in the pan and bake for 45 minutes, or longer until a knife

inserted in the center of the cake comes out dry.9. Cool the cake to room temperature. Remove from the pan.10. Garnish with sugar powder and orange slices or berries.

This is the end of the season for oranges, and it is a good idea to enjoy them before they are replaced by spring fruits on the shelves. This recipe is easy to prepare. It does not contain flour (gluten free), butter or oil. The sugar may be replaced by a substitute sweetener.

The Radnor Historical Society's Historic Building Marker Program was formed to make the public more aware of Radnor's magnificent historic buildings, a unique treasure on the Main Line. Radnor possesses a multitude of historical building types, including large estates, suburban properties, modest homes, and historic commercial buildings in various downtown business districts. It is the hope of the society that these markers will serve not only to identify buildings of historical and architectural significance, but that they will, through heightened community awareness, encourage the continuing care and preservation of individual buildings.

Before a marker application can be accepted, RHS must determine if enough information is known about the resource to warrant a marker, and if it meets our general guidelines including a construction date of 1945 or before. Although many buildings in Radnor are well-documented, unfortunately we do not have historical data on every township property. Generally, RHS has the most information about the North Wayne, South Wayne and Downtown Wayne areas, though we do have information on many other structures (as found in our inventory). At this time we can only award markers to buildings which have a sufficient amount of data collected in our inventory; however, if the property owner has additional information that RHS does not, they are welcome to submit their own research (with citations). Marker eligibility will be based solely on the building's exterior, will not restrict any physical attributes (including paint color), and will not require any additional township historical review. This is strictly a voluntary program administered by the Radnor Historical Society and is not related to

Radnor Historic Building Marker Programtownship ordinances or the Historic and Architectural Review Board (HARB).

Applications will be initiated by the property owner who will bear the cost and maintenance of the marker. The marker will be cast bronze and will include the building's date and when known, historical information such as, but not limited to, its name, original owner, builder and architect. A typical marker's dimensions will be 11"x7", though the dimensions may vary if required by the building's architecture.

We are currently accepting applications for markers. Applications for markers will be reviewed by a committee established by the RHS and decisions to award markers will be made based on specific guidelines and criteria. Custom fabricated markers with the RHS logo will be distributed to the property owner upon the successful completion of the application, research and paid fee of $200.00 per plaque. Production time for the markers may vary. Forms and further information are available below, or from the Society at 113 West Beechtree Lane, Wayne, PA 19087. For further information, please write to [email protected].

The information displayed on the marker will be at the discretion of the RHS based on research indicating what is most relevant to the historic significance of the property. Information on the marker will be limited to four lines, which may include:

If a property was given a name at any time in its history, that name might be shown.

What information can be included on the marker?

Building Name:

Former Owner Name:

Date:

Architect and/or Builder:

Radnor Historical Society Logo:

Approval of Owner

Based on historical research, the name of a prominent past owner may be included. The current owner's name will not be placed on the marker.

Based on historical research, the date displayed on the marker will be the year in which the building was built. If there are significant historical architectural additions and their dates are known, they may be displayed as well. If the RHS is unable to determine an exact date for the property, a "c." meaning "circa" will be placed before the date (which may be a range, i.e. "c. 1884-1887"), indicating that the date is approximate.

If the original architect and/or builder of the building is known, those names could be included.

All markers will include the Radnor Historical Society name at the bottom of the marker.

Before the marker is to be manufactured, the information to be included on the plaque will be sent to the applicant for approval.

Dog Training - How can I get my dog to walk into doggy daycare calmly?

- Marissa, BerwynHi Marissa!An eager and excited dog is something we sometimes see here at Perfect Pooch! While we love that your dog can’t wait to play, we understand that it can be frustrating for you to be dragged in by your dog. Your dog’s excitement to be at daycare begins way before you pull into the parking lot. In fact, it probably begins before you leave the house, even at the mere sight of your dog’s leash. The beginning of the excited behavior chain is where you need to start breaking down the series of behaviors. Here are some helpful tips to keep your dog calm while entering daycare:

Work on your dog calmly sitting for the leash, calmly getting in and out of the car, and calmly walking beside you all individually. Don’t link these tasks together, or your dog will associate seeing the leash with going to daycare.

If you take your dog to daycare regularly, he/she has learned that the sooner you get inside, the sooner playtime starts. The practice of pulling you in has been repeated and reinforced with the reward of playing. Give yourself enough time to get into the daycare doors slowly and assertively.

Using the lure of meat or cheese treats will help your dog focus on you more than getting inside. Ask your dog for any calm behavior that you are reasonably sure will be completed, such as “sit.” Take a few steps toward the doors, repeat the request and then reward with the treat. Take another few steps and keep repeating and rewarding.

Once you are inside the daycare and your dog is accepting your treats, you can ask for one final sit as a staff member takes your dog by the leash. Release the sit with a happy “OK” and let your dog be led away to fun. Over time, you can add more duration between treats. Thank you for your excellent question! For more help with leash walking or other behavioral issues, we have various training options that are sure to fit both you and your dog’s needs!

Start at the beginning.

Don’t allow the behavior to keep happening.

Bring a tasty treat with you.

Continue rewarding even when you’re through the doors.

Forever Jenkins Endowment Campaign

Preserving a Garden Sanctuaryand Living Museum

Jenkins Arboretum & Gardens of Devon is one of eastern Pennsylvania's major horticultural and environmental assets. It preserves and nurtures 48 acres of Chester County's rapidly disappearing natural terrain, sited on a ridge above the historic and once agriculturally rich "great valley" with Valley Forge National Historic Park to the northern horizon.

With a tall tree layer and multi-layered shrub understory, the Arboretum provides the community with a tranquil oasis for the enjoyment of all. Further, the Arboretum ensures the integrity and conservation of over 10,000 plants in our living collections with rigorous museum and scientific standards in labeling, mapping, and database record-keeping.

Fulfilling a VisionSince opening in 1976, the Arboretum has been built on Mr. Jenkins' intention to honor his wife, Elisabeth and celebrate her life.

ENDOW AN ACRE TAKE A STAKEENDOW AN ACRE

What part of Jenkins' mission is most important to you?

Our Goal

is the theme of our Forever Jenkins Campaign for Endowment. Endowing an acre will allow each donor to secure the future of this remarkable botanical garden.

The goal of the Jenkins Arboretum & Gardens Forever Jenkins Campaign for Endowment is to build the endowment so that it can serve as the Arboretum's major source of financial security in perpetuity. Your gift will help Jenkins achieve that goal.

Preserving a Garden Sanctuary and Living MuseumShowcasing Unique Botanical CollectionsPromoting Environmental Stewardship

No matter your choice, this is your opportunity to participate in protecting this treasured community resource for generations to come.

Our Goal is to grow our endowment to $20,000,000 by 2020. We have designed a funding concept for ENDOW AN ACRE that will allow everyone to participate in this endowment campaign in a way that is meaningful to that person. The progress of the Forever Jenkins Endowment Campaign will be charted by a map in the lobby that will become greener and greener as acres are endowed and by moveable signage in the gardens measuring the endowment growth with tangible visual markers.

Are you a senior that lives alone? Are you concerned about a spouse? What would happen if you had an emergency or had to go to the hospital?

As much as no one wants to think about situations like this, it is important to plan ahead. Surrey offers a critical service that can help you Surrey on Call.

Here is how the service works:

First there will be a "Getting to Know You" meeting. One of Surrey's highly experienced Care Managers will meet with you and any other family or friends you would like included to get to know you and understand your medical situation. This includes pertinent medical, living and other information.

After the meeting, Surrey will touch base with you periodically via telephone or email to see how everything is and to see if anything has changed. There is no fee for the initial meeting or for these regular check-ins.

Surrey on Call Help When You Need It:

Coordinate the Important Communication:

After the initial meeting, Surrey can act as an advocate for you whenever needed. If you have an emergency or have to be hospitalized, you or the designated family or friend can simply call us, any time day or night. We will ensure that you are receiving appropriate care. If you have a spouse at home that needs assistance, we can also arrange that care.

Surrey Care Managers will coordinate communication between you and health professionals (and any designated family or friend) and ensure that you are fully informed and understand your care.

Arranging Follow Up Care:

Personal Attention to Your Needs:

If you need any additional care after discharge we will arrange it--whether it is help at home or in a rehabilitation facility.

Having your own personal wellness team will give you and your family a sense of well-being and assurance that you will always receive the appropriate care.

The initial meeting and follow up calls are free. All other services are provided on a sliding fee scale.
