The Borough of Myerstown extends a sincere thank you to The Fireplace Christian Fellowship for once again volunteering their time and effort at the Myerstown Recreation Area.

Recently, members of the church helped spread approximately 60 yards of mulch throughout the park and playground areas. Completing this work in one day is a major help to the Borough and saves our small Public Works Department a significant amount of time during a very busy season.

Their service helps keep the Recreation Area safe, clean, and welcoming for families and visitors, while allowing Borough staff to continue working on other important projects throughout the community.

Thank you to The Fireplace Christian Fellowship for your continued partnership and commitment to Myerstown!

April is National Safe Digging Month.

With springtime approaching, more residents may be inclined to tackle some outdoor projects. National Safe Digging Month is declared annually to remind homeowners and project coordinators to keep safety at the forefront when projects include excavating or digging. The PA 811 One-Call website says:

This initiative is an essential reminder for both excavators and homeowners to contact 811 at least three business days before starting any digging. By following this important step, individuals can ensure facility owners and operators accurately locate and mark underground lines, reducing the risk of accidental damage. By proactively contacting 811, an excavator not only prevent injuries but also reduce the risk of disruptive utility outages, underscoring the crucial role of safety and responsibility in excavation practices.

For more information, please see the PA 811 One-Call website at www.pa1call.org.
