Rep. Chris Sainato

On behalf of the Lawrence County Commissioners I was pleased to welcome Department of Aging Secretary Jason Kavulich and Drug and Alcohol Secretary Dr. Latika Davis-Jones to Lawrence County at Challenges in Neshannock Township! The Lawrence County Area Agency on Aging has been selected to pilot a new prevention program for seniors called WISE! The program is designed to empower older adults to make healthy lifestyle choices and manage medications safely!

It was an honor to help kick off the Renova Chamber Orchestra at the Magnificat Chapel at Villa Maria! The group performed local Composer Judy Bruce’s newest number “The Awakening Dawn”! Founded in 2012, under the leadership of renowned Music Director Joshua Zona, the festival brings together pre-professional musicians from around the country to perform in Lawrence County! There will be three more performances, June 11 at Northminster Presbyterian Church, June 12 at Stone Castle Abbey and June 13 back at Magnificat Chapel at Villa Maria!

I had an opportunity to attend the Barons game and opening ceremony tribute to Sammy “The Bull” Trivilino at Flaherty Field! Mayor Mark Elisco gave a passionate speech recognizing his contributions to baseball and the City of New Castle!
