M ost of the boys from the Hamp-
ton 10U boys’ baseball team
have been together since they
were 7 years old when they played and
won their first tournament in East Butler.
Despite having three years of amazing
success, the boys have finally experienced
some bumps in the road this season; simi-
lar to that usually experienced by the Pi-
rates. But that hasn’t stopped the boys
from spending their summer playing
America’s favorite pastime, nor has it dis-
suaded their Head Coach, Marty Dietz,

Boy Scout Soars to New Heights
Christian Harper, a member of
Boy Scout Troop 17, recently got the
chance of a lifetime - to fly an air-
plane.
Last June, Christian, fellow
scouts of Troop 17, and other area
scouts spent the day at Butler County
Airport to learn about flight, how
planes work, and other aspects of air
travel in order to earn the Aviation
Merit Badge. As part of the require-
ments, the participants made foam
plate airplanes and flew them inside a
hangar. Christian’s plane flew farther
than any others, winning him a certif-
icate for one hour of in-flight instruc-
tion.
In July, Christian, a seventh
grader at Hampton Middle School,
and his dad redeemed the prize at
Butler County Airport with Corey
Manton, a certified flight instruc-
tor at AirQuest Aviation. Manton
taught Christian about pre-flight
inspection, cockpit controls, and
post-flight inspection. Christian
got to sit in the pilot’s seat while
the instructor was the co-pilot.
After take-off, the instructor let
Christian fly for about 20
minutes. Because the dashboard
was so high, Christian couldn’t
see over it. He had to steer using
the instruments.
Christian was surprised when
Mr. Manton told him to fly the plane.
He thought the prize was just going to
be talking about flying, not actually
doing it. Once on solid ground again,
Christian remarked, “It really was the
chance of a lifetime - an amazing
experience!”

Warrior low-wing plane that he flew

cle. The car was parked in his driveway all night. The ve-
hicle would not start and was towed to a mechanic to be
looked at. The resident was told that something was placed
into the gas tank causing internal damage. No other infor-
mation is available at this time.
Fire
On Sunday, June 16th Hampton Police were dispatched
to a residence on Wildwood Road Extension for a report of
a gas grill on fire. Prior to arrival, County Dispatch advised
the fire had been extinguished, but the caller wanted the
units to continue in to verify. Upon arrival, officers were
met with the homeowner who stated her gas grill on the
back porch was fully engulfed prior to the police arriv-
ing. The resident stated her daughter was able to put out the
flames with a fire extinguisher. Hampton Fire units verified
the fire had been put out and moved the grill from the deck
onto the driveway for precautionary purposes.
Theft
On Sunday, June 16th a resident from Tall Timber
Drive reported that sometime that afternoon his two garbage
cans were stolen along with his recycling container. No
suspects at this time.
Property Damage
On Saturday, June 15th a resident from Hampton Oaks
Drive reported that someone damaged his front yard over-
night with a vehicle. It appeared as if someone drove up to
the house and then tried to back down the driveway. There
was a set of tire marks in the yard to the pole light, which
had been knocked down. The driver hit two bushes, then
crossed to the other side and hit another bush. Debris from a
car was next to the pole. There was also debris on Middle
Road at the entrance to the plan.
On Tuesday, June 18th a resident from Oakhurst Ave-
nue called the station to report that this morning around
1:00 a.m., someone turfed his lawn and left. No description
of the vehicle. He said someone also took his landscaping
rocks from the roadside and placed them at his front door.
He did look outside and saw one person walking down the
street. Residents are advised to call 9-1-1 immediately if
they see or hear anything suspicious.

University of Pennsylvania. The Class of 2014’s top three dozen male
and female students earned their invitation by overachieving in aca-
demics and athletics. They received an early education in leadership
training that will stay with them into their future.
The week involved leadership training and development program-
ming with instruction from Wharton professors and executives from
the NFL Sports Business Initiative. Guest speakers included James
Harris of the Philadelphia Eagles and Spencer Tillman of CBS Sports.
The students participated in coursework and breakout sessions involv-
ing motivation, career development, negotiations, and much more. To
close the program, the NFL and Wharton brought in Terrie Williams,
who has been overseeing PR for the some of the top entertainers in
NYC for over 2 decades who spoke with the students about the value
of networking.
Selection for the program
was based upon academic tran-
scripts, athletic experience, lead-
ership activities, recommenda-
tions, and personal essays. When
asked about his experience in the
program, Anthony said “I was
honored to have been chosen for
the program and feel that it al-
lowed me to learn more about
business and college athletics that
can be applied in my future be-
yond school.” Anthony is an hon-
or roll student who plays football
at Hampton High School. He will
graduate in the spring of 2014
and plans to study business in
college.

Grapes for Snacks? by John Rizzo
I t’s not easy to find fault in eating fruit, but to a diabetic not
all fruits are created equal. The glycemic index is one way
to determine what fruits are better tolerated for a diabetic
diet. It signifies how quickly blood sugar may rise after eating
specific carbohydrates. And the glycemic load correlates the
amount of carbs in a particular food and its glycemic index. For
example, watermelon has a high glycemic index and can ad-
versely affect a person who has difficulty with blood sugar bal-
ance. But grapes are considered to have a medium glycemic
index and a low glycemic load. Grapes contain a lot of water
and fiber which release the sugars into the blood stream at a
slower pace.
Resveratrol, a polyphenol found in grapes, has long been
suggested to have antioxidant properties which protect the body
against heart disease. Red wine comes to mind when discussing
the heart healthy properties of resveratrol which is found in the
skin of red grapes. There is now focus on its benefit in prevent-
ing insulin resistance which can be a precursor to diabetes. Stud-
ies have shown that mice that have consumed large quantities of
resveratrol have been able to live on high-calorie diets without
obesity-related health problems. These same studies also corre-
late grape intake to better blood sugar balance, better insulin reg-
ulation, and increased insulin sensitivity.
Watermelon Waldorf Salad Yield: 6 Cups
Combine the watermelon, celery and grapes and mix well.
Gently fold in the vanilla yogurt and mix until the fruit is coated
evenly.
Place in a serving bowl and chill thoroughly. Just before
serving, sprinkle the top with toasted almonds.

struggle, overcome defeat and continue to work together
as a team. The team is made up of Ethan Apaliski, Shane
Bischke, Justin Bigatel, Logan Breitenbach, Reece Carter,
Dawson Dietz, Brock Mattiuz, Colin Murray, Johnny Riz-
zo, Max Smith, and Ethan Varley. Coach Dietz is joined
once again by assistant coaches, Blaise Smith, Jeff
Mattiuz and Scott Bischke.
The boys started off their season with a hard fought
battle at North Shaler right after the 4th of July, followed
by a tournament hosted by our neighbors to the north,
Pine-Richland. The boys then excitedly hosted their own
“Wood Bat” tournament the weekend of July 18th, which
included a Home Run Derby and Speed Pitching contest.
Although they didn’t make it to the finals, the boys cer-
tainly enjoyed tooling around and watching the playing
field leveled off by a simple change in bats. Max Smith
“brought the heat” and won the Speed Pitching contest
with an impressive 61 mph pitch! The boys went on to
finish the season with a look to the future by trying out
their skills at the Bronco level by participating in the
HAA 11U tournament.
For some though, the highlight of the season might
have been their trip to PNC Park. The entire team had an
opportunity to watch batting practice from inside the Pi-
rate dugout. If that wasn’t cool enough, they also got to
meet Pirates’ center fielder Andrew McCutchen, catcher
Michael McKenry and pitcher Mark Melancon. The boys
and their families then stayed to watch the Pirates vs. the
Oakland Athletics.

New Playgrounds at Park by Gail Scott
T he Hampton Community Association held their first golf
outing in June to raise money for the new playground
planned for the Hampton Community Park. The Inaugural
Golf Outing took place on June 21st at the Pittsburgh North Golf
Club. The weather was beautiful and the golfers had a wonderful
time participating in the event. Sixty-four golfers played in the 18-
hole scramble and enjoyed the food and prizes. The event raised
approximately $5,000 toward the playground. The HCA’s goal is
$100,000. We have currently raised $15,000.
The HCA is currently in the process of raising funds to help
redesign and replace the current playground equipment in the com-
munity park. It has been many years since the project has been done
and we are in a great need of new playground equipment. The HCA
is hoping that the playground theme will be an all-inclusive multi-
generational area. Without our community supporting this project it
cannot be done.
Clear plastic “Playground” banks are being passed out for free
to the community. The idea is that you take home a “Playground”
bank and fill it up with change. When your jar is full, you can take
it to the Hampton Community Center and pour your money in a
large bank that marks how much money we have currently raised.
You can take your jar home and start filling it again. Plastic jars are
available for free at the Community Center and at the Hampton
Pool. Please stop in today to one of these locations and pick up a
bank. Help raise money for the new playground equipment project.
We will be looking for members of the community who are able to
help in the construction of these playground areas when the time
comes to have the playground assembled. A small playground addi-
tion will be made next to Drake Pavilion this September. Be sure to
stop by this fall and see it!
Hampton 9U Tournament Team
by Gail Scott
The Hampton Bomb Squad traveled to Aberdeen, Maryland in July to play in the Cal Ripken Jr. Tournament. The Bomb Squad is a
tournament baseball team made up of 9 year old boys from Hampton. The team played 2 games on Saturday July 27th and won both
games with a score of 16 to 2 over the Lake Shore Gray Sox and 6 to 2 over the Bethpage Eagles. They played in the quarter-finals on
Sunday July 28th and beat the Marlboro Mustangs by a score of 10 to 9 with a walk-off win in extra innings. The Bomb Squad lost a
hard fought battle on Sunday afternoon in the semi-finals by a score of 6 to 2 against the Spookynook baseball team. The Bomb Squad
finished 3rd overall out of 16 teams ending a successful tournament season.

Robotics Team Places Fourth, But Wins in Sportsmanship
T he Hampton High School Ro-
botics Team displayed the true
meaning of sportsmanship dur-
ing a recent Botball Competition, held
April 8-12 in Norman, Oklahoma.
During an elimination round with
a competitor from the Greater D.C.
Region, the team donated their only
time out to their competitors, who
were struggling with a technical issue
with their robot. The competing team
already had used their time out and
was unable to fix the issue, so Hamp-
ton’s Robotics Team voluntarily
agreed to let the competitors use their
time out as well. With the additional
time, the other team was able to fix the
issue and the competi-
tion resumed. Howev-
er, Hampton’s team
later experienced a
minor issue with its
own robot, but was
unable to take time out
to fix it because they
had forfeited their
allotted time out to the
other team. The issue
with their robot caused
the team to lose in that
round.
According to the
team’s faculty advisor,
Mr. Vincent Kuzniew-
ski, their generosity
may have cost them a
higher ranking in the overall tournament.
“The kids don’t regret it, because if they
wouldn’t have done it, it wouldn’t have been
From Left to Right: Brandon Duderstadt, Ian Waldschmidt,
and Charlie Bares
a fair competition with the other team’s
robot not working properly. The kids said
they wanted it to be a more fair game.
We went down, but we went
down with glory.”
Their generosity did not go
unnoticed. The team won the
Spirit of Botball award, which is
given to the team that displays
the best sportsmanship during the
competition.
In addition to the Spirit of
Botball award, the team also
placed third in the Double Elimi-
nation Round, fourth in the Seed-
ing Round and fourth overall.

The Importance of Oral Health in Pets
by Dr. David Sherer
The condition of the mouth is
very important to overall health and can
provide clues about other diseases in the
body. An unhealthy mouth can seriously
affect overall wellbeing. Without proper
hygiene, bacteria can cause severe oral
infections, bad breath, lead to tooth loss,
and affect the liver, kidneys and heart
(among other things). Maintaining your
pet’s oral health care is an important part
of keeping them healthy.
The most effective thing that you
can do to prevent dental problems is to
brush your pet’s teeth. Brushing teeth
daily to every other day is the most effec-
tive way to prevent buildup of bacteria as
well as lessen the need for dental clean-
ings. Here are a few tips to help with
brushing your pet’s teeth at home:
-When brushing teeth go slow in the
beginning to let your pet get accustomed
to the process. Let them lick the tooth
paste off the brush (offer as a treat) then
slowly build up with short increases in
the amount of brushing. Do only as much

as your pet will tolerate and slowly build that up.
-You only need to brush the outside of your pet’s teeth
(surfaces facing the cheeks).
-Brush gently in a circular pattern around the teeth and base of
the gums- about a minute of brushing total should be good.
-Brushing should be done with a toddler soft bristled tooth
brush, a finger brush, a wash cloth or gauze square.
-Veterinary toothpaste should be used (we recommend CET
enzymatic toothpaste). Never use human toothpaste because the
fluoride is toxic to pets.

A Heartfelt Thank You
Hi Hampton community, I am Connor Michalek’s mom, Brittany.
First I just want to start by saying a huge thank you for everything, be-
tween all of the prayers, positive thoughts, donations, coming together for
support and showing your love for Connor.
So as a lot of you know Connor’s cancer showed through his MRI in
April that it had grown again. It started slowly, he started an experimental
chemo and then he had another MRI 6 weeks after the start of that chemo.
Last week after the MRI and meeting with his oncologist we learned that
the new chemo had not worked at all...his cancer has grown, and spread
through new spots (including his brain again, as it has just been in his
spine since 2011). Obviously the news is devastating and extremely shock-
ing....Connor seems so well lately, better then ever actually, I (we) as-
sumed the new chemo had to be working really well. There was a lot of
upsetting talk at the appointment, things we haven't been told before...no
good news... by any means.
Connor will be starting a different chemo within the next week or two.
At best we are hoping that it will give us some more time and provide
good quality of life for as long as possible. We are just continuing to pray,
keep faith and hold out for the miracle that he so very much deserves.
We have so many wonderful things planned for Connor. Great dis-
tractions and such enjoyment for him! Between camping (glamping real-
ly), Myrtle Beach (his favorite beach) and Disney. We really have all of
you to thank for it. We would never be able to do (afford to do and pro-
vide) all of these things with him. It brings tears to my eyes thinking
about it and we’ll forever be grateful and hold you all so close in our
hearts!
Connor has touched more lives and been more of an inspiration in his
short 7 years than I could've thought humanly possible. He's my rock, my
superhero, my charming, tan handsome little boy...my everything. He
gives me all the strength, hope and faith possible and I will never stop be-
lieving in him, and thank you all for never stopping either!
Brittany Caligiuri, Connor’s mom

feeling you are carrying, toss it out, and keep only love,
joy and serenity, you are in the right place. I want you to
wake up every day deeply fulfilled, in love with your life
and equipped with the tools to keep it that way. Let’s do
this!
