What a month of March it has been. From the well above average temperatures to the full moon, red moon, and lunar eclipse to the great accomplishments by local area athletes. March came in like a lion and went out like a lion for some very talented teenagers. When you reach the last column of
I know I’m a little early, but since our next issue won’t come out until after, I figure I’m giving you ample opportunity to plan ahead! April Fool’s Day is the perfect opportunity for kids to giggle, be a little sneaky, and surprise their friends and family with lighthearted tricks. The key is keeping the
In 1736, Founding Father, Benjamin Franklin helped found the first volunteer fire department in the world, the Union Fire Company of Philadelphia. The fine and dedicated men and women of the Loyalsock Township Volunteer Department help continue this fire safety service and protection to your neighbors. They recently celebrated 100 years of existence. The year
Growing up, my momma always packed my lunch for school. I didn’t buy much, especially in middle school and high school. In elementary school, I bought on pizza day and special days like Thanksgiving dinners. Plus, I loved some of the lunch ladies and always enjoyed going through the lunch line to say hello to
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
The Vietnam War was unlike any other war in our country’s history. Look at the films from Hollywood that came out of this war: Apocalypse Now, Platoon, Full Metal Jacket, The Deer Hunter, Coming Home, Tigerland, Born on the Fourth of July, the list goes on and on, but they all have the same theme
At Compu-Gen Technologies, we care about our community and want to help you stay safe from the growing threat of cyber theft. More and more people — especially seniors — are being targeted by tech support scams designed to steal money, personal information, and peace of mind. The good news is that with a little
When it comes to hunting, there is probably no segment of hunters more eager to have the “latest gadgets and gear” than turkey hunters. As we ready our vest for spring gobbler hunting, let’s look at some of the basic tools you should be carrying. The more time you spend in the turkey woods, and
“Our kids are in absolute mental health crisis, and it’s getting worse,” says clinical psychologist Jeffrey Hansen. With decades of experience in trauma, addiction and adolescent health, Hansen is one of two speakers for the second annual Shed Some Light medical conference in Williamsport. Retired palliative care and hospice specialist Dr. Alexander Nesbitt will also
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 light, open-faced spinning outfit with some type of live bait or artificial lure will probably be one of the most popular presentations. In my early years
It seems like every year around this time, I start considering a hair rethink. I look at trending cuts, review the products I’ve been using, how I’m styling my hair, etc. Kind of a like a state-of-hair address. Both Fall and Spring are natural seasons for a hair refresh. With the former, you want a
Cancer treatment has advanced significantly, helping more people live longer, healthier lives. However, some of these lifesaving therapies — such as chemotherapy, immunotherapy, targeted treatments, and radiation — an have unintended effects on the heart. This is known as cardiotoxicity, and it can lead to serious heart conditions both during and years after treatment. To
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. My fingers are crossed, and I am hoping they find a way to advance to Hershey. That would be fantastic. But regardless of what happens — I am
It was years after I left my duties as the Central Region Director for Little League Baseball Headquarters when a co-worker came to my office to tell me a visitor was at the front desk. Inquiring about the identity of the visitor, I was told “he’ll know who I am.” Sure enough, that statement rang
Congratulations to Brandt Harer and Austin Johnson on bringing home state gold earned through their efforts on the wrestling mat. For my money, wrestling is the most demanding sport on the athletes participating. Almost all who finish their high school careers at Hershey have put in more blood, sweat, and tears since they were knee-high
Cue the birds chirping, the sun shining, and the flowers showing off — spring has officially arrived! After what felt like an endless winter (seriously, did January have 74 days?), we can finally ditch the heavy coats and say hello to warmer, brighter days. I heard the first mourning dove while walking my dog the
As the weather gradually starts to get warmer, your thoughts may turn to those home fix-up projects that you have been putting off. Well, this weekend, March 21, 22, and 23, you might find the perfect way to get some ideas about your projects when the West Branch Susquehanna Builders Home Show takes place at
ARIES – Mar 21–Apr 20 Aries, forcing an agenda right now might backfire. It is best to be patient and let things unfold organically. A few new people may come to your aid this week and support you. TAURUS – Apr 21–May 21 You might need to reconsider what you have been fighting for, Taurus.
United States presidents come in all shapes and sizes. It is ironic that our two greatest presidents, George Washington and Abraham Lincoln, could not be more different from one another. Washington was one of the richest men in the American colonies; Lincoln was born and raised in a log cabin in the wilderness. Washington was
I’m sure there are a lot of folks who are rejoicing that the warmer weather is starting to move back into Pennsylvania. Albeit there is still a chance that we could still get some cold temperatures and maybe even some more snow flurries, it won’t be long before the little green buds will start to
Well finally! This Thursday, March 20, 2025, marks the first day of spring, and after a colder-than-usual winter, it couldn’t arrive soon enough! With the warmer temperatures and intermittent rains, we should turn our attention to habitat work that will benefit all forms of wildlife. First things first. Probably the most important key to creating
Now that the fashion weeks from New York, London, Milan, and Paris have wrapped up for those of us who follow along, it’s time to look at some of the trend predictions as we head into spring. The following trends range from real-life wearability to outright ridiculous. But that’s part of the fun and fantasy.
Decades ago, the City of Williamsport conducted a public contest inviting entries seeking to identify a new promotional slogan. Based upon its uniqueness as the Birthplace of Little League and the importance baseball has played in its history, I decided to enter the contest, submitting my suggestion, “The Little League City with a Big League
My full-time gig is with Susquehanna Marble and Granite. Yes. There is never a dull moment. I have been with the company for eight great seasons. And I have been involved with every facet of the countertop business. I am not the strongest, and these beautiful rocks are super heavy. My fellow work chums say
‘Been there, done that’ is a common expression most often uttered by individuals who have accomplished a task and, sometimes out of boredom or disinterest, choose not to continue down the same path. Muncy’s Austin Johnson and Montgomery’s Brandt Harer have certainly mastered the four-word phrase, but it has only been the opponents they have
In celebration of Women’s History Month, the Williamsport Music Club will present a program entitled “Beautiful Music Composed by Women” on Tuesday, March 25th at 7:00 p.m., at Pine St. United Methodist Church. Serving as program chairs are Kay Huffman and Laurel Wolgemuth. Performing Rebecca Clarke’s “sonata for Viola and Piano, second movement,” will be
In an era of “real-life” movies that exaggerate the facts beyond recognition, it’s bracing to see a straightforward, unembellished tale that genuinely merits its opening statement: “This is a true story.” Yet despite a low-key approach to the undersea rescue of one single stranded diver — or perhaps because of that — Last Breath is
I want to begin this week with a happy Saint Patrick’s Day; whether you’re Irish for the day or Irish for a lifetime, please get out and about and enjoy all our area has to offer. I must also add that if you’re partaking in adult beverages, please do so responsibly. Don’t allow a little
I got a phone call this week from a woman named Jenny Golden. And Jenny was asking for help. She needed a voice and a platform, so I offered to help. Jenny’s Facebook profile was hacked, and unfortunately, that resulted in friends and strangers alike getting scammed out of money and leaving Jenny on the
Through the years, Lycoming County’s high schools have produced some high-flying and high-scoring girls’ basketballers, but perhaps none has been as distinguished as the Jersey Shore Bulldogs’ Peyton Dincher. In her recently completed high school career, she scored more than 2,000 points, a total that is to be celebrated for sure. She will take her
