You can “get what you want” at a decent price at “Sportsmen Outfitters” here in Knox Pa. BUSINESS HISTORY . . . In 1972 Bob Wynkoop opened on Main Street in a build- ing he purchased from former Knox Police Chief (and borough resident) Jim Brown. Bob tells me he shelled out a mighty $2000.00 for the building located at 516 Main Street. It was used as a Brach’s candy warehouse before Bob purchased it, and be- fore that it was a restaurant owned and operated by Ed Rhoades. I can remember that building was full of pin- ball machines when Ed had the restaurant there, we kids loved to play in there. After Bob did some reno- vation on the building, he opened and the business was officially named “Bob Wynkoop’s Sportsmans Outfitters”. There was an- other “Sportsman Outfit- ters” in Bradford Pa. at that time, and Bob was good friends with the owner Ferdinand Catellier. Bob did most of his buying (store stock) through Ferd up in Bradford and later went on to work as a partner with Ferd at the Bradford store. On March 1st in 1974, Sportsmans Out- fitters (Knox) was sold to Don & Randy Culberson. At that time the business be- came know as, “Sportsmen Outfitters”. Randy was working as a meat cutter at the - Mayor’s Spotlight - Sportsmen Outfitters local grocery store at that time and Don (his father) owned a building at 528 Main Street where the Culberson family was run- ning a “Dairy Bar” operation in there at that time. In 1976 they moved Sportsmen Outfitters from 516 Main to this 528 Main Street building. In 1977 Don & Randy purchased the old Knox Movie Theatre at 526 East State Street with the interest of moving the business into a more suitable location. They began a massive reno- vation on the building at that time, the old theatre was in bad shape, it was a complete top to bottom re- build. In August of 1978 they had it ready to go and Sportsmen Outfitters offi- cially moved down to the Continued on A-2 Service Installation Custom Duct Work Heating & Air Conditioning Travis Cratty Small Appliance Repair Parker, PA 724-679-0756 Glorious Music and Art in the Beautiful Allegheny River Valley Allegheny RiverStone Arts Reserve Tickets: 724-659-3153 Or buy online at: www.alleghenyriverstone.org Allegheny RiverStone Center for the Arts receives state arts funding through a grant from the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts, a state agency funded by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the National Endowment for the Arts, a federal agency.

If there are a group ofpeople in modern historywho are thought of as irre-deemable, it’s the Nazis. Truthbe told, the orchestrators ofthe genocide of the Jewishpeople and the murders ofmillions of others certainlydidn’t “deserve” any kind ofmercy. Yet at the end ofWorld War II, two AmericanArmy chaplains—Rev. HenryGerecke, a Lutheran minister,and Father Sixtus O’Connor,a Catholic priest—made anunprecedented attempt tosave the souls of the Nazi lead-ers held at Nurembergprison. Their little-knownstory has now been docu-mented by award-winningjournalist Tim Townsend inthe book “Mission atNuremberg: An AmericanArmy Chaplain and the Trialof the Nazis.”

During an interview on“Christopher Closeup,”Townsend admitted thatprior to writing this book, hesimply knew the “Hollywood”version of the trials andthought of the Nazis as a “ste-reotype of evil.” And whilethere were those like ErnstKaltenbrunner, who seemedto revel in cruelty as he over-saw the extermination of theJews, there were others, likeWilhelm Keitel, who didn’t fitso neatly into a preconceivedbox.

As a young man, Keitel livedan average, innocuous, non-threatening life. He wanted tobecome a farmer until his fa-ther “pushed him into thearmy.” Eventually, he becameHitler’s general field marshal,whom Townsend describesas “the Fuhrer’s closest mili-tary adviser and most de-pendable sycophant—an ob-sequious figure, the arche-typal Nazi bootlicker.”

As I was reading “Mission atNuremberg,” I couldn’t helpbut feel that during the war,Keitel forgot who he reallywas—that he suppressed thegoodness within him becausehe fell in love with adulationand power. But a sliver of hishumanity still remained whenhe met Pastor Gerecke withwhom he developed a bond.

Pastor Gerecke’s inherentChristian conviction andhumble charisma allowedhim to make inroads in some

of the Nazis’ consciences—though none of them tookfull public responsibility fortheir sins. Perhaps movingthem toward any sort of peni-tence at all in a short periodof time was a miracle in itself.How was Pastor Gerecke ableto accomplish even thatmuch? Almost 50 years old atthe time, he was formed byhis experiences during theGreat Depression. Thoughstationed at a comfortableLutheran church in St. Louiswith his wife and kids, he leftthat job and moved his familyinto a tiny apartment in orderto minister to the homeless,as well as prisoners in localjails.

In addition, he practiced in-terfaith cooperation long be-fore it became popular.Townsend said, “[TheGereckes] lived in the middleof a Catholic parish, andLutheranism was the numbertwo denomination [in St.Louis]. Pastor Gereckeworked very closely with theCatholic priest of that parish.Interfaith partnership in thatneighborhood very muchhelped him later becausechaplains in the Army arechaplains to all, not just forthe men and women in theirp a r t i c u l a rdenomination...That was im-portant to him in an informa-tive way when he begancounseling and pastoring toNazis in the wake of the Holo-caust.”

Pastor Gerecke further de-veloped his human touchwhile serving as chaplain at aMASH-like unit in England.Wounded soldiers arrivedfrom the front lines only to bepatched up enough to sendto “proper hospitals.” Notonly did Pastor Gereckecounsel the wounded there,he also helped the doctors,nurses, and staff who neededspiritual sustenance of theirown.

I’ll conclude PastorGerecke’s and FatherO’Connor’s story in my nextcolumn.

Well, we have finally arrived. As this is being written, it is abeautiful day outside. The temperature is warm, and the snowis melting, and the weather forecast is for more of the same.It’s about time! It seems to me that we have paid our dues thiswinter. At the risk of jinxing things, I am going to say that Ithink that the worst of winter is over. Although I have yet tosee any, my buddy has seen lots of robins in his yard. While Iam well aware that some of these birds stay around all yearlong, I still cannot help but feel good when they start showingup in yards. The same buddy (old Bub) also saw a flock ofred-winged blackbirds at his feeder. We might still get somebad weather, but the appearance of these birds is an indicatorthat the worst is over. In other words, we have made it for yetanother year.

At this time of year, my mind naturally begins to turn totrout fishing. Of course, in our part of the state, we get onceagain the short end of the stick. We can’t fish until April 18th,although the rest of the state can start earlier. What else isnew? We already have worse antler restrictions than the restof the state. I guess they might as well sock it to us on thetrout fishing as well. Apparently, we are too few to count inthe overall scheme of things.

We also must look at the Mount Lebanon deer cullingproject. As this is begin written, the project is still going on.Now, get this. They think that there are too many deer inMount Lebanon. As a solution, they are going to round themup into pens and shoot them. I doubt that they will just let themeat go to waste, although I don’t know specifically whatthey are going to do with it. My question is very basic. Whynot transplant those deer to areas where the GameCommission’s policies have decimated the deer population?That way, those paying for a hunting license might have abetter chance of scoring on a deer. Also, if antler restrictionsare all that important, why shoot a bunch of deer that haveshed their antlers, not knowing how many points they hadbefore they shed them? It just goes to show what a genuinefarce the idea of antler restrictions is. Kids can shoot littlebucks. So can cullers. It’s time that this hypocrisy gets kickedto the curb where it belongs. It’s all based on a problem thatnever existed, but that Gary Alt could use to help his academicreputation. In academia, publishing is important, and hunt-ers are the victims of Alt’s need to do so.

This week, I would like to close with something that sort ofbugs me. That would be the emphasis on catch and releasefishing. Let me point out that I have no problem with theconcept. I just don’t think that it should be some sort ofrequirement. Personally, I love to eat fresh caught fish. If youcatch a fish, and it’s in season, and meets the size limit, it’syours. If you want to release it, that’s fine. If you want to eatit, that’s equally fine. I really don’t understand why people,who find nothing wrong with killing a deer, squirrel, pheas-ant or other critter while hunting, think it’s a crime to kill afish. It just makes no sense to me.

Dick’s Thoughts-Dick’s Thoughts-Dick’s Thoughts-Dick’s Thoughts-Dick’s Thoughts- The KSAC recently announced theall conference basketball teams. Named to the boys firstteam were Union’s Cole Morris and David Olszak of KarnsCity. The third team had James Bair of Moniteau and AlexGraf of Keystone. Named to the first team for the girlswere Madison Johnson of Keystone and LeeAnn Gibsonof Karns City. The second-- team had Shanel Preston ofKarns City, Kristina DeMatteis and Stephanie McCall ofMoniteau, and Lexey Shick of Union. The third teamfeatured Erin Logue and Morgan Cratty of AC Valley, Am-ber Hess of Keystone, and Annie Hegedus of Karns City.Congratulations to all!

For the first time since the mid 70’s no District 9 girlsteams advanced passed the first round of the PIAA play-offs.

Robert Morris Men’s and Women’s basketball teamsmake the NCAA tournaments while Pitt and Penn Stateteams can watch on tv. As I said a few months ago Pittdoes not have the talent to compete in the ACC. Dixonand his assistant coaches have to be held accountable forflat out horrible recruiting.

Brett Kiesel was recently cut by the Steelers. Kieselseems to be a great guy and a credit to the city. But inreading what a lot of fans have posted about The Beardyou would think as a player he was a cross between LCGreenwood, Joe Green, and Deacon Jones. Kiesel did hisjob and did it well but in 13 seasons with the black andgold he had 30 sacks and was credited with 409 tackles.Father time is still undefeated.

In 1926 the Pirates Paul Waner got 6 hits in a gameusing 6 different bats. I am not sure why anyone wouldremember this one.

85-year-old Arnold Palmer had his biggest endorsementyear ever in 2014, old Arn raked in $42 million.

Thought of the week: You’ll never find the RIGHTperson if you never let go of the WRONG one.

During a hunting trip in1980 (up in Canada) DonCulberson suffered a heartattack and shortly thereaf-ter he made a decision toretire. Randy Culbersonpurchased the remaininginterest in the business atthat time and remains thepresent day owner.

In 1993 Randy purchasedthe lot beside SportsmenOutfitters (where theFriendly Tavern once was)and expanded again, build-ing a new building on thislot. Both buildings arejoined together today pro-viding the massive “on dis-play” area that SportsmenOutfitters is well known for.

The main entrance is onthe “new” building sidethese days, and most of theother theatre side featuresan Archery Pro Shop man-

aged by bow tech-nician expert SteveMcCaslin.

They have a greatstock at SportsmenOutfitters includinghunting clothing,footwear, and dur-ing my interviewvisit there they evenpointed out theyare stocking cam-ouflaged lingerieand swimsuits for

the ladies. Sportsmen Outfitters is a

major supporter of the“Clarion County Sportsmenfor Youth” organizationhelping them do the fantas-tic things they do every yearin our community. Randy isa board member of this or-ganization.

Sportsmen Outfitters isanother one of the greatKnox businesses we arelucky to have here in townand we say THANKS toRandy Culberson and every-one at Sportsmen Outfitters,you make Knox a betterplace!

Leap Into Action!Leap Into Action!Leap Into Action!Leap Into Action!Leap Into Action! is exactly what the audience will experiencewhen the nationally acclaimed dance company, Attack Theatre,performs at the AC Valley High School Auditorium on ThursdayMarch 26 at 7 PM. They have been making personal, accessibleand collaborative dance-based performances with “ninja-like in-tensity” (Pittsburgh Tribune Review) for 20 years. AlleghenyRiverStone Center for the Arts scores another ‘first’ in the regionwith this public presentation, educational workshops and an ex-hibit featuring works of art by ACV students at Foxburg’s Red BrickGallery.

ARCA is utilizing the universality of dance, so popular in themedia with “Dancing with the Stars”, to attract a new and largeraudience for the arts in the community and the region. Leap IntoAction is part of ”Dancing Off the Canvas”, ARCA’s Communityand Educational ArtReach Program presented in partnership withthe A-C Valley Schools.

Attack Theatre has a long history of blurring the lines betweenvisual art, performance art, and traditional dance. Nationally ac-claimed for their innovative arts education residencies in danceand the visual arts, Attack Theatre is THE quintessentially idealpartner in presenting ARCA’s “Dancing Off the Canvas” arts edu-cation residency program at AC Valley Schools – and they arebased right here in western Pennsylvania.

On March 24, 2015, Pittsburgh’s celebrated and seasoned artseducation teaching artists from Attack Theatre, will presentmorning workshops for A-C Valley students and a group of Giftedand Talented Students from 12 area schools. An afternoon assem-bly performance of Leap Into Action for A-C Valley 7-12 studentsfollows.

ARCA’s Educational ArtReach workshops at A-C Valley in“Dancing Off the Canvas” will explore the relationship and com-mon elements of dance and visual art. Both students and artistswill respond to works of visual art - reacting to form, color, andcomposition. A movement dialogue with dancers ultimately willresult in a finished choreographed piece based on their reactionsand responses.

On Thursday, March 26, at 7:00 PM Attack Theatre returns toA-C Valley for a performance of “Leap Into Action: A Look Behindthe Curtain”. In this “Informance” Attack Theatre dancers will givethe audience an inside look into the creative process of choreog-raphy and use movement gestures developed with A-C Valley stu-dents in the workshops to improvise a new dance for the public.

ACV art students, under the beautifully creative guidance ofinstructor Anita Allen, have created dance-themed works of art,which will be shown at Foxburg’s Red Brick Gallery from April 11 –19. This first-ever student exhibition is another milestone inARCA’s evolving partnership with the ACV schools.

ARCA’s in-school arts education program seeks to support theimportant and inspiring work A-C Valley arts teachers do withtheir students in general music, band, chorus, visual art classesand the school musical. The he Attack Theatre Residency andpublic performance are designed to provide students and adultsin the greater Allegheny-Clarion Valley Region an opportunity toexperience the awe and wonder of a superlative live dance perfor-mance by an internationally acclaimed dance company, AttackTheatre, not normally possible outside of larger city settings.

The innovative “Dancing Off the Canvas” program demon-strates ARCA’s commitment and mission to contribute to the fu-ture of the community through the education of its young people.As standardized testing has become paramount, research hasshown that arts education has numerous benefits: From makingyou smarter and engaging “whole brain” thinking to solving prob-lems and finding more creative and innovative solutions… all ofwhich help students perform better academically.

ARCA’s larger goal isn’t to get a bunch of kids to dance or paintpictures or even to turn them into professional artists. Its goal isfor students to take this enriching experience into their lives, asnurses, teachers, business people and leaders in their community- each pursuing their own dream. Visit www.alleghenyriverstone.org/educational-outreach/ to read more about ARCA’s educa-tional outreach.

Attack Theatre is “the best of the best” and they require a feethat matches their 20 years of innovation. ARCA is going aboveand beyond its normal arts education budget to invest in the fu-ture of A-C Valley students with the artistic quality of Attack The-atre. The Pennsylvania Council on the Arts has seen the value andsupported the project in part. The school residency has no admis-sion charge and tickets prices for the public concert are extremelyaffordable to encourage family attendance.

To cover the cost of the residency, ARCA is launching aninternet crowd fund raising site through FundRazr on Monday,March 16 where the public can donate to support the project.https://fundrazr.com/campaigns/eweqb/ab/24Utt1

The site will feature a short movie including A-C Valley art stu-dents. The funds raised will cover the cost of the residency andestablish an ongoing A-C Valley Art Education Fund to supportthe work of A-C Valley arts, teachers and students.

Online contributors will receive wonderful gifts and benefits -from posters and prints of students’ work to complimentary pack-ages at the Foxburg Inn and Foxburg restaurant and membershipin Allegheny RiverStone Center for the Arts with its benefits andopportunities. ARCA invites you to go online and partner withthem in empowering arts education in the A-C Valley Schools.

Attack Theatre combines modern dance, original live music,multimedia and interdisciplinary art forms to present works in tra-ditional and nontraditional spaces both nationally and interna-tionally. They have collaborated with major regional theaters(Quantum Theatre), NYC Broadway productions (Squonk), mu-seums (Carnegie Museum of Art, Andy Warhol Museum, FrickArt Museum, Mattress Factory), symphonies (Pittsburgh Sym-phony Orchestra), operas (Pittsburgh Opera, Opera Theatre ofPittsburgh, Spoleto USA) and international dance companies(Japan’s Nibroll Collective, Belgium’s Compagnie Matteo Moles),thereby presenting nearly 100 original works in theatrical and sitespecific settings. While maintaining a loyal audience in Pitts-burgh, they have toured nationally in Ohio, Pennsylvania, Mary-land, South Carolina, D.C., Texas, Washington, New York andMassachusetts; and internationally, throughout France, Monaco,Germany, Switzerland, Indonesia, Turkey and Japan.

On Thursday, March 26 at 7 PM you will not want to miss hav-ing an inside view of the artistic creative process as Co-founderand Artistic Director Peter Kope and company dancers extendtheir camaraderie on stage to the audience and give you A LookBehind the Curtain.

You’ll be inspired and amazed as the athletic dancers createexciting lifts and leaps using weight, balance, momentum, andeven ladders and tables!
