Deerfield Township
During the month of November ditches on Youngsville Road and McCauley Hill Road were cleaned and pot holes were filled with cold patch.
Althom Road had ditches and pipes cleaned along with the filling of pot holes.
Gravel was laid as part of the Hilltop Drive project and regular equipment maintenance was preformed on the equipment as well as winter maintenance.
The Fern Hollow Project, per the township project engineer, had been approved but the permit was in the mail. A promised e-mail confirmation from the engineer prompted the go ahead to start the project. Signs would go up on indicating the road would be closed. Due to the weather the contractor, Turner Enterprises, was given the approval to obtain an additional pump if necessary to pump excess water. In addition, a motion was made to extend the completion date for the Fern Hollow Project to June 20, 2012 due to the delay in receiving the permit and the weather.
A new sign to indicate McCauley Hill Road where it meets Youngsville Road as well as another sign for Althom Road where it meets the Brokenstraw Township line will be forthcoming.
The backhoe is now paid in full and the township has received the title.
The 2012 budget was approved and adopted. The township continues to need two auditors to complete the 2011 Annual Report. Any resident of Deerfield Township that would be interested in working on the audit is asked to contact the township secretary/treasurer, Sharon Flasher at 563-4047.

Members of the Watson Grange would like to thank the Downtown Nail Salon, Kim's Cafe, Jock Shop of Warren, Crone's Drugstore, Bella Capelli, Thorne's BiLo of Warren, and Watts Office Supply as well as all the individuals that contributed to the Breast Cancer Awareness Basket.
Deanna Hollabaugh, Chairperson of the Deaf and Community Service, presented a check in the amount of $208 to Lois, a volunteer who represented the American Cancer Society.
At the recent open meeting presided over by Master Bob Hollabaugh, several bags of non perishable food items were collected for the Salvation Army Food Bank. Members of Watson Grange do this instead of having a gift exchange.
Other business of the evening included the installation of Rob Burris to the Executive Committee and Matthew Irons to the Finance Committee, both will serve a three year term.
