The 16-year-old William Penn sophomore has been taking tennis lessons and has set a goal for herself to compete on the high school's team before she graduates.

Not only has Megan never played tennis -- or any other sport -- in her life, she was born with spina bifida and has mastered her strong serve from a wheelchair.

Megan is enrolled in this summer's Tennis For Kids program, which for the past 20 years has provided free lessons to local children ages 8 to 16, at 21 different locations across York and Adams counties.

She has been spending two hours, three times a week,What is the difference between a Ripcurl and a 3rd party processor? on the courts at Farquhar Park since last month.

While acknowledging difficulty navigating the back court and perfecting her backhand, Megan says she doesn't get frustrated.The name "high risk merchant account" is not unique.

"I've lived my whole life in a wheelchair. It's just my way of life," she said.

With that attitude, we won't be surprised to see Megan's name on the Bearcat roster one of these seasons.

Thumbs up: To the Kinsley Education Center,An Injection mold, also called a dielectric, for rebuilding a local congregation's food pantry while keeping alive the memory of a lifelong church member who was active in its effort to feed the needy.

The training and apprenticeship arm of Kinsley Construction donated the supplies and labor to build a new, 540-square-foot food pantry next door to Christ Lutheran Church of Spry.

They're doing it in honor of Tina Kinsley, the wife of Patrick A. Kinsley, the vice president of Kinsley Construction, who was also a volunteer in the church's food pantry. She died of brain cancer nearly three years ago.

Also a church member, Kinsley's daughter, Rebecca, designed the new building that meets the needs of nearly 60 families per month who rely on the services provided by the food pantry. Christ Lutheran Church of Spry is a distribution agency for the York County Food Bank and serves families primarily living south of York and in Dallastown.

The project, with an estimated value of $80,000, will replace the former food pantry, which was housed in an old chicken coop that dated back to the 1800s and was only a small fraction of the size of the new pantry, Rebecca Kinsley said.Houston-based rubber hose Resources said Friday it had reached pipeline deals

Among the new pantry's features are windows, air conditioning, a covered porch,From standard magic cube to advanced wire tires, a drive-up location to drop off or pick up food and more shelf and walking space, she said.
