THIS DAY IN HISTORY - December 31
Panama Canal turned over to Panama 1999
On this day in 1999, the United States, in accordance with the Torrijos-Carter Treaties, officially hands over control of the Panama Canal, putting the strategic waterway into Panamanian hands for the first time. Crowds of Panamanians celebrated the transfer of the 50-mile canal, which links the Atlantic and Pacific oceans and officially opened when the SS Arcon sailed through on August 15, 1914. Since then, over 922,000 ships have used the canal.
Interest in finding a shortcut from the Atlantic to the Pacific originated with explorers in Central America in the early 1500s. In 1523, Holy Roman Emperor Charles V commissioned a survey of the Isthmus of Panama and several plans for a canal were produced, but none ever implemented. U.S. interest in building a canal was sparked with the expansion of the American West and the California gold rush in 1848. (Today, a ship heading from New York to San Francisco can save about 7,800 miles by taking the Panama Canal rather than sailing around South America.)
In 1880 a French company run by the builder of the Suez Canal started digging a canal across the Isthmus of Panama (then a part of Colombia). More than 22,000 workers died from tropical diseases such as yellow fever during this early phase of construction and the company eventually went bankrupt, selling its project rights to the United States in 1902 for $40 million. President Theodore Roosevelt championed the canal, viewing it as important to America’s economic and military interests. In 1903, Panama declared its independence from Colombia in a U.S.-backed revolution and the U.S. and Panama signed the Hay-Bunau-Varilla Treaty, in which the U.S. agreed to pay Panama $10 million for a perpetual lease on land for the canal, plus $250,000 annually in rent.

Roseto Ice Rink Opening
They say that everything happens for a reason. But what good could come from the exceptionally cold weather we have been experiencing lately? All it does is produce snow, ice and more ice.
When you think ice, however, you may wonder when was the last time that you went ice skating outside? If you can't recall or would like to ice skate, the Borough of Roseto has purchased and set up an outdoor ice rink located at the Roseto Ball Park.
You can access the rink through the main gate only off of Denisco street. If gate is closed the ice rink is closed.
It will open to the general public starting January 5th, weather permitting. It will be open Fridays from 5:00 - 8:00pm,
Saturday it will open at 9:00am -12:00 noon for ice hockey and 12:00 noon - 5:00pm for general skating.
The rink will also open on Sundays from 1:00 - 5:00pm. Weather permitting, the borough plans to open every weekend. There is no cost to come skate, so sharpen your blades and join us for some old fashioned fun this winter.
