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
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
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
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
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
Hello, West Branch Valley; I’m in agreement with the meteorological community; spring begins on March 1st. And that is worth celebrating with the winter we’ve had. I wish it were possible to have all the cheerleaders across our area doing the old-school “let’s get fired up” cheer for you as you begin reading my words.
Alright, y’all — March is officially here! We’ve (hopefully) made it through the cold, dreary winter, and now we’re stepping into longer days, warmer weather (hopefully), and plenty of reasons to celebrate. Whether you’ve been counting down to spring or just need a fresh vibe shift, March is the month for it. Spring is Spriiiinging!
Yeah, yeah…not Jimmy. Listen. Jimmy is over winter and over February, so he’s decided to hibernate until March officially arrives. So, he’ll be back next week. In the meantime, you are stuck with me. When we talked about me taking his space for the week he asked if I had anything near and dear to
Spring training has begun, and the month of March is in sight. This can mean only one thing: it’s time for that column that so many of our hunters and outdoorsmen have been waiting to see. We have the results for our 17th Annual Webb Weekly Uncle Ron’s Monster Buck Contest. Before I get to
