    Vlasic Pickleball Courts at Little Beaver Stadium0

    Before I get to my title story, congratulations to the Loyalsock Township Lady Lancers on their amazing season — we will have complete coverage in next week’s issue. We are operating a day ahead of our normal press schedule, so as their championship game is tipping off at the Giant Center, this has already been

  • New Name, Who Dis?0

    In case you haven’t noticed yet, look over there ⬅️ or over there ➡️, and you’ll notice that I have a shiny new name! That’s because as of you reading this (not as of me writing this), I have gotten married! Steve and I have been together for a while, but that doesn’t mean I’m

  • “A Night at the Opera”: Repasz Band’s Spring Concert0

    Folks of a certain age might recall “Night at the Opera” as the name of a best-selling Queen record — the one with “Bohemian Rhapsody” on it. For those a bit older, that title also invokes the Marx Brothers’ classic comedy from 1935. But for Lycoming County music fans this spring, it means another exciting

    Boys and girls, you’re about to behold a sight so fuzzy, so enchanting, so utterly charming, that I urge those of you who are easily tickled or prone to the giggles to look the other way — but if you are still here, step right up, everyone has a chance to win a prize! As

  • Finding a New Place to Hunt0

    Area hunters are truly blessed with State Game Lands encompassing thousands of acres nearby where they can hunt. That acreage has been paid for by money generated by hunting license sales and should remain for hunters’ use for generations to come. But what happens when the forests on that land undergo changes that negatively affect

  • After March Madness: Springing into Weird(er) Words0

    For the past couple of weeks, Webb’s Weird Words has been looking backward. To be specific: On March 19, we reviewed the Greek and Latin origins of medical terminology; and then on 3/26, we covered Medieval terms that are also health-related — like phlegmatic, bilious and lily-livered. Now that spring (and April!) have arrived, we’re

  • Turkey Calling0

    As March rolls around, it signals the beginning of the wild turkey breeding season when folks of hens and gobblers begin to mix. I’ve been seeing that mix over the past few weeks, and I’ve seen at least three large groups of turkeys, gobblers included, in several different locations. It’s that time of year when

  • County Hall Corner: Ronald Reagan: President of Humor0

    April 1st is April Fool’s Day and kicks off National Humor Month. It is tempting to write about how foolish our elected officials are, but it would be impossible to do that in a Webb Weekly article. It would likely result in a book the size of War and Peace. Therefore, I decided to highlight

    Trout season opens this first Saturday in April, and in case you didn’t know that, you certainly will when you drive by one of our nearby trout streams. I’m sure plenty of anglers will be crowded around those locations recently stocked with trout. Fortunately, at least as of this writing, the streams are in pretty

  • How Time Outdoors Can Benefit Mental Health0

    Nature beckons billions of people to get outside every day. Natural settings are not called “the great outdoors” for nothing, and nature enthusiasts may insist there’s nothing better than a day in the elements. Such a sentiment may be more accurate than the most ardent outdoorsman realizes. In fact, the American Psychological Association notes that

  • A Field & a Statue0

    It’s no April Fool — later this month (April 26, to be exact), thousands of loyal Penn State football fans will be jamming themselves into the parking lot of West Shore Home to catch a glimpse of the 2025 Nittany Lions. Those planning on making the trip need to make sure they have the right

  • Skirts & Sneakers0

    As we continue transitioning from winter into spring, I’ve been looking around for some outfit inspiration. Some wardrobe staples are simply meant to be worn together, such as the classic white t-shirt and jeans look or blazer and loafers. While others rarely meet in one outfit, like cutoffs and a trench coat. One new pairing

    Trout season is about to get underway real soon, and a lot of folks will be on streams and lakes with an assortment of equipment, lures, and baits.

    A reminder that these articles are submitted on Friday. So, I have no clue how the Lady Lancers faired in their PIAA AAA State Semifinal against IMHOTEP.

    Driving a car or truck is part of daily life for most people. Commutes to work or school, leisure trips or time spent behind the wheel as part of a profession compel people to drive each and every day. Although most trips to the office or the store are uneventful, the risk that something may
