David Schaef update: (12/05/23)

I spoke with David yesterday. He had just arrived at the Encompass Health Rehabilitation Hospital in Erie.

There are still a couple of issues to resolve, and David is optimistic that Encompass has the skills. We didn't speak much of medicine and health, most of the conversation was about our subscribers and the Community News newspaper.

I was much encouraged by the tone of his voice and the idea he was interested in talking about Community News. So, he’s at that, “I want to get back to work” stage of healing.

He talked about his subscribers and a letter he is composing for them. He talked about how to proceed with the newspaper when he gets home.

He said he hopes to be home in 2 weeks.


Thank You all for your Love and Prayers and Well Wishes.

Vo-tech closing student cafeteria

Come next school year, the cafeteria at the Crawford County Career & Technical Center [former Vo-tech] will no longer be in operation to serve student lunches.

Members of the CCCTC board of directors, which include Don Ellis, Jr., Dr. Walter Thomas and David Schaef of the Conneaut School District, along with 3 members each from the Crawford Central School District and PennCREST School District, were so informed when the CCCTC board met last week in regular meeting session.

Primary reason for the change is a change in times that students, primarily PennCREST - Cambridge Springs, Maplewood and Saegertown - students arrive and depart at mid day at the school, leaving the morning session and arriving for the afternoon session.
