Take part in a monarch butterfly catch and release Take part in a monarch butterfly catch and release event at PPL’s Brunner Island Wetlands from 10 a.m. to noon. Saturday, Sept. 18. Join us as we catch, tag and release monarch butterflies to help the University of Kansas track migration patterns. The Brunner Island Environmental Preserve is a certified Monarch Butterfly Waystation, a “rest stop” for butterflies to eat on their journey between the northern locations where they reproduce and Mexico, where they spend the winter months. Bring a net if you have one. The program, which is free and great for all ages, will take place at the Wood Duck Pavilion at PPL’s Brunner Island wetlands, off Wago Road, across from Gate A. For directions, visit www.pplweb.com/brunner+island. For more information, contact Karen Ament at (717) 284-6274 or kament@pplweb.com.   The rain date for this event is Sunday, Sept. 19.

Rent-A-Kid in need of kids The Rent-A-Kid program sponsored by the York County Area Agency on Aging is in need of kids in middle and senior high school. Rent-A-Kid is an intergenerational program which offers students an opportunity to earn money doing routine household chores, yard work, mowing lawns, and shoveling snow for York County senior citizens.  The program also provides an opportunity for senior citizens and teenagers to interact and help each other. Teenagers who wish to become registered must be in grades 7 through 12.  Applications are available at all school Guidance Offices or can be downloaded from the ‘Forms & Documents’ page of www.ycaaa.org.   The recommended payment by the senior citizen is $5 per hour.  However, depending on the type of work and ability of the senior citizen to pay, the teenager may negotiate a more satisfactory rate of pay. For more information, call (717) 771-9103 or (800) 632-9073.   (comments? | Score: 0)
