Parents in the Hempfield School District in Lancaster, PA are battling an impending cell tower on the playground/fitness trail at Rohrerstown Elementary School. As the community becomes more informed, the concerns are growing....
They are also hoping to shut down a cell tower at Landisville Middle School (situated on the same campus as two elementary schools and the Hempfield High School), and prevent any future cell towers on other school grounds.
They have a petition created by a local grandmother. Please share it! The petition can be found here: http://chn.ge/2xgBgvo
The petition will be sent to Hempfield's Superintendent Dr. Christopher Adams, and Verizon's local Harrisburg, PA attorney, James Strong. Dr. Adams has stated in public meetings that he does not believe there are any potential health risks due to the cell towers. Help us enlighten him so that he understands the potential health risks!
