Pennsylvania’s Mysterious Creatures

Darnell discussing the Kecksburg, Pa incident with author and investigator Stan Gordon




Stan Gordon was the fourth speaker at the Eerie UFO Conference in Erie, Pa. on May 4, 2013. His illustrated program covered many types of strange creatures reported in Pennsylvania. The subjects range from Black Panthers, Thunderbirds, and aquatic creatures to Bigfoot and UFOs seen together, as well as a variety of other mysterious creature encounters.

I discussed the Kecksburg, Pa incident with him. We do not agree on what it was. I say it is the NAZI Bell. He says that it is not. 

Who is Stan Gordon?

“Stan Gordon was trained as an electronics technician, specializing in radio communications. He worked in the advanced consumer electronics sales field for over forty years. Gordon began his interest in the UFO subject and other strange incidents at the age of 10 in 1959. In the late 1960s, he acted as the telephone UFO sighting report investigations coordinator for the UFO Research Institute of Pittsburgh.” 

“Stan began in the field investigations of UFOs and other mysterious events in 1965, and is the primary investigator of the December 9, 1965, UFO crash recovery incident that occurred near Kechsburg, Pa. In 1969, Gordon established a UFO hot-line for the public to report UFO sightings to him to investigate.”
“In 1970, he founded the Westmorland County UFO Study Group (WCUFOSG), the first of three volunteer research groups which he would establish to investigate UFO sightings and other strange occurrences reported in Pennsylvania. Since November 1993, he continues to investigate and document strange incidents from across the Keystone State as an independent researcher.”

 This meet went from bad to worst for all of us at the 10th Annual Age Group T&F Invitational meet hosted by the Team Maryland Track Club, taking place in Baltimore Maryland on Saturday May 25, 2013. The purpose of joining a track club is to be part of a team competing against other teams. Each place a member recieves for example first to eighth place gives your team points against other track clubs. The team with the highest points wins the meet.

On May 18, 2013, Daniel scored 5 points for his team.

someone to practice with.

 Here is Daniel preparing to run down and pass two of his older competitors in the 1500 Meters. 

What is wrong with Daniel in this picture? He is way out in front of the rest of his competitors in the 400 Meter run.

 

Stephanie and David is looking on

The answer, he started in lane 7. He ended in lane 1. He was automatically "DQed" for running out of his lane. Daniel forgot the rules when it comes to running the 400 Meter Run. In this race, you stay in your lane that is assign to you. In the 800 Meter and 1500 Meter Runs, you move over into the first lane. The official went over the rules with all the "8 and under" participants before the race. Daniel was not listening. As a result, he won the race and was disqualified.

The good thing about this is that it happened in an invitational meet meaning it was a meet to try out new things before it counts toward moving up to nationals. Coach Andrew Lofton wanted to compare his time in the 400 Meter Run to his times in the 800 Meter, 1500 Meter, and the 3200 Meter runs. The 400 Meter did not go well Saturday. Since it was not a qualifying meet, he can come back from this disaster.









We decided to pull Daniel out of the Long Jump competition until further notice.
We do not have the time to train him in this event this year. We have less than a
month before USATF qualifying competition starts for this summer. We will
concentrate on his running events to prepare him to make it to nationals. 

We will regroup and try for better results on  June 2 at Gwynedd Mercy College. 
We will compete on June 8th @ Caravel Academy in Wilmington, DE at the Art 
Madric Track Classic. Then it will be time to compete in the USATF qualifying 
meets ending in Nationals at the end of July. At the beginning of July, it will be time
to compete in the international meets starting in Canada.
