I immediately thought of the Cadets. There is a taxing conflict between the City of Allentown and the home of the Parkettes National Gymastics Team, an organization somewhat similar to the Cadets. Seems to me, a new issue for the Cadets to deal with COULD present itself. Not good in a year like this! Perhaps not, if the Cadets have already been paying a Business Privilege Tax to Allentown, or it’s already clear they have no obligation to do so. I’d like to think non-profits do not pay this tax. I have no insight if other corps already deal with this, but know I wouldn’t want such a surprise thrown at the Cadets right now. www.morningcall.com What is this, a fishing expedition?

If anything like the ones in my area of PA there is no walk up checking in or emergency admissions. All patients are referred by doctors or hospitals (and insurance companies) as patients come in with specific needs. Just trying to clear this up as the legalities get murkier. And interesting they used the word hospital in the write up. And oh man have I had experience dealing with rehab facilities the last few years.... Click on the link. Look at the bold line under locations: they make the claim that they are: Good Shepherd Rehabilitation (Hospital). https://www.goodshepherdrehab.org/locations/find-location/inpatient-rehabilitation-locations/good-shepherd-rehabilitation-hospital Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must be a legal thing to be designated a hospital if you have patients staying over. Local rehab center that does not have beds does not mention hospital. What I learned today.... edit: checked places that have both nursing home environment and rehab for long term care and/or people too weak for usual rehab places. Interestingly it’s rehab and “health center” or “health services” On topic: A-town needs money and gonna try to get it somehow..... and if parsing words out of a license wil do it then....

Just classic internet trolling, drop something here alleging a problem with zero proof of an actual problem. No drum corps, probably especially the Cadets, deserves this sort of trolling 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is a responsible and serious poster and there is nothing to suggest his motivation was anything other than legitimate concern. As for it being about the Cadets, it is about something happening in Allentown. If it was happening in Fort Mill, we would talking about whether it affects Crown. if you have reason to understand this is not a legitimate concern, please enlighten us so we won't worry and won't have a reason to discuss it anymore.
