Before I get started, tip of my Little Mountaineer Little League cap to a wonderful lady, Dori Rankinen, chairperson of the South Williamsport Mummers’ Parade. Dory has done a fantastic job breathing life back into the event and keeping a great tradition marching down the streets of South Side. It’s great that the Mummers’ Committee
EXTRA! EXTRA! READ ALL ABOUT IT!! ATTENTION BOYS AND GIRLS! It is time once again for Webb Weekly’s annual Halloween contest! This is my FAVORITE contest of the year and I always look forward to picking out and choosing which little ghost, goblins or, in this case, mummies will be scattered through the paper. I’m
There is something for all of us to dislike in President Donald Trump. That’s just who he is, and he’s never going to change. It is probably his greatest strength as a leader but could be his kryptonite as far as winning a second term in the Oval Office. I have written on at least
I know, I know, another ‘National Month’. But listen, it’s not my fault October hosts so many and that they are all important. So I’m covering them all and you are just going to have to accept that. In addition to Adopt a Shelter Dog and Breast Cancer Awareness, October is also Nation Bullying Prevention
Before I get started on my main topics of discussion, just a reminder to all our hunters out there. If you’re lucky enough to tag that big buck you’ve been watching all summer, make sure you enter our Uncle Ron’s Monster Buck Contest. Webb Weekly’s very own Ron Mingle will be back to oversee the contest even
As the fall colors start to shine across the valley, another color will start making its yearly appearance as the calendar flips to October — Pink. Soon you will find pink everywhere. From athletes at every level, to the wait staff at your favorite restaurants, everyone will be sporting pink in honor, celebration, and to
What an amazing time of year to call our neck of Penns Woods home. As the calendar officially reads Autumn, it signifies the beginning of so many wonderful happenings and traditions. Soon, the fall foliage will illuminate both mountainsides that frame the Susquehanna River. Mother Nature’s perfect fall decorating of the West Branch Valley. The
I know that it’s not quite October, but anyone who knows me, knows that I am generally early for everything… October is Adopt-a-Dog month and I think that’s something worth celebrating early! Since 1981, the American Humane has celebrated Adopt-a-Dog Month each October in an effort to help the estimated 3-4 million animals waiting in
It’s hard to believe that when Montoursville and Loyalsock kick it off this Friday night, we’ll be five weeks into the high school football regular season. I don’t know which one of these two things seem more out of bounds. That we’re halfway thru the PIAA High School football season and the calendar still reads
I pretty much live and die by carbohydrates. Pasta, chips, potatoes, rice, you name it and I’m probably going to eat it. Mostly likely with cheese. But, I’m also an adult, and one that’s — unfortunately — not getting any younger. So every now and again I attempt to make some healthier choices as far
It was a beautiful, sun drenched, late-summer morning. It appeared all was right in the world. The early day’s sun still very warm, but the smell of fall was in the air. I dropped my sons off for school and daycare. Jimmy had just started kindergarten and Hunter was a very young preschooler. I was
It’s hard to believe that it’s been 18 years since our country was changed forever. Eighteen years since almost 3,000 people lost their lives to a terror attack that changed the landscape of the United States forever. One of the bright spots that emerged from that fateful day was the 9/11 Memorial Ride. It began
