I have been clear over the years how blessed we are to live in our little corner of Penn’s Woods. This time of year, I would like to be talking about this in reference to everything that is going on around us. Veterans Day and all that we do to honor these special Americans has
By the time you’re reading this — God willing and the creeks don’t rise — the government shutdown will be over. But while it’s been dragging on, it’s caused a lot of stress for families across the country. Military personnel aren’t getting paid. SNAP recipients don’t know if their benefits are coming. Federal employees are

As we honor veterans this week, it is perhaps fitting and proper to highlight one of these veterans who has cared deeply for veterans and their problems for many years, having been a veteran himself, Mike McMunn recently retired as head of Lycoming County’s Department of Veterans Affairs.

The empty chairs at community programs across Lycoming County tell a story that goes far beyond budget spreadsheets and political maneuvering.

This ongoing crisis has become a recurring theme in these pages
The six-month marathon, which this year extended to the first day of November, of the Major League Baseball season is now officially history. Regardless of personal rooting interests, the record-setting seven-game thriller between the Los Angeles Dodgers and the Toronto Blue Jays will go down as one of the best World Series ever played.

Running has been a successful lifelong companion for Griffin Molino. As a high schooler from South Williamsport, he won two cross-country state titles.

As temperatures drop and sniffles rise, many wonder: does cold weather make you sick?

While at coffee the other morning with the gang, the subject of coyotes came up. One of the guys showed us a photograph of a coyote that was recently trapped near his home in the Lairdsville area. It was a pretty good-sized coyote weighing in at around 50 pounds. During the conversation somebody else mentioned
Leopard print is a timeless trend that has been worn by a multitude of women in various ways over the decades. It’s the rare print that can act as a neutral while also signaling a sort of femme fatale figure. It’s widely available across all price points, from bags and shoes to dresses and suits.
As we honor our veterans in the upcoming week, I would like to share with you a quote from General Colin Powell. General Powell passed away in 2021 and is now honored at the very place he spoke these words. “The Nation owes a great debt to its veterans, whose sacrifice to the Nation spans
It’s one of my favorite times of year—the in-between time. Halloween is behind us, and we have a couple of weeks until Thanksgiving. There is a chill in the air, and it’s starting to feel like it’s time to stay inside. My husband calls it “Steph makes everyone fat season” because this is also when
If you love good music and want to support a worthy cause, then Journey Bank Community Arts Center in downtown Williamsport is undoubtedly the place for you this Saturday, November 8, beginning at 7:30 p.m., when “Live United in Music, Vinyl to Viral Concert” is presented to help raise funds for the United Way of
Many of you have ‘taken a chance’ this week by going to your nearest polling place and expressing your preference as to who elected leaders will be. Some of you recently may have taken another kind of chance by plunking your money down on a sporting event, hoping that your expressed preference will increase your
When the most fundamental needs of our community intersect with the complexities of government operations, transparency becomes the bridge that connects solutions to problems. The voices of early childhood educators filled the Lycoming County Commissioners meeting on October 23, 2025, as representatives from STEP highlighted a crisis that threatens the very foundation of our community’s
UConn’s quarterback Joe Fagnano is trending. The Williamsport Area High School grad is having an unbelievable season. He is leading the NCAA in several offensive categories. Fagnano was recently added to the “Manning Award” watchlist. Joe is also gaining momentum with the voters for this year’s Heisman. Unheard of. Sports Illustrated ran a story last
Each November, we “fall back” by setting our clocks one hour earlier as Daylight Saving Time ends. While gaining an extra hour of sleep may sound like a bonus, the shift can still disrupt your body’s internal clock, especially if you’re already sleep-deprived. Our circadian rhythm, which regulates sleep and wake cycles, is influenced by
Whether you are an old hat at deer hunting or are headed into the woods in hopes of getting your first deer, there are a few things to keep in mind to ensure a favorable outcome. The best way to ensure that the venison you serve your family and friends for supper is as flavorful
Well, first off, I obviously don’t have the answer to the title for this week’s story. If I had that answer, I would nail my buck right away every season, and I can assure you that has not been the case. Like most other hunters, I try my best to figure out where to hunt
If there’s one garment that a majority of people consistently rely on to get dressed almost every day, it’s denim. Just about everyone wears jeans, whether they’re a piece of your workwear, what you grab to throw on with a T-shirt and sneakers, or part of a tailored blazer, blouse, and chic pair of boots
As we close out October, there are so many issues that seem to bring negativity to our American Spirit. I believe in the two-party system, and Republicans and Democrats work for the American people. Lost in the world of today is the having of a beer and a sandwich together after Congress breaks. This so
Wow, can you believe it? Halloween is already here! Are you ready to dive into the festivities? Make sure you’re all set with comfy shoes and your favorite hoodie. Don’t forget those extra candy bags, flashlights, and batteries! And maybe grab some Tums for when you inevitably overindulge in those delicious Reese’s! Everything looks like
Halloween is almost here — costumes are being finalized, pumpkins are being carved, and candy is being stockpiled like it’s the apocalypse.

In 2018, an unheralded little documentary came out with this oddball title: 78/52. Dedicated solely to the shower scene in Hitchcock’s Psycho, that film took its title from the number of camera set-ups and shots contained in that now-legendary sequence. It’s safe to say that no one else ever has made — or ever will
Although it is not a word most folks use in everyday conversation, conundrum was a word often used by a colleague during my pre-retirement working days. Meaning “puzzle, mystery, challenge,” it sounded a bit like a sophisticated way to express ‘there’s trouble ahead.’ Somewhere along life’s path of journalistic learning, I was told the number
By Edgar Allan Poe Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary, Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore— While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping, As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door. “’Tis some visitor,” I muttered, “tapping at my chamber
The Fall is my favorite time of year to play, and I successfully teed it up a few times in September. I’m also off to a great start here in October. This is the most I’ve golfed in many years. The Lycoming College Warriors and I are currently en route to Shawnee on the Delaware.
The sound of genuine need echoed through the Lycoming County Commissioners meeting on October 16, 2025, as Holly Beaver stepped forward to represent an organization whose mission touches hundreds of lives every month.

In today’s world, we have more access to information and technology than ever before. When used correctly, these tools can be incredible — helping us learn, connect, and share knowledge across generations.
