The Little League World Series is winding down and we are closing in on the end of summer. Kids will be heading back to school and this Friday will bring us the first Friday night football games. Speaking of, Webb Weekly Live and Cable Sports Live are back this year to bring you two great
Williamsport welcomes the World! What a wonderful time of year to be a baseball fan, and live right here in the West Branch Valley. If you are in town for the 72nd playing of the Little League World Series, it’s great to have you. Welcome to the home of Little League Baseball. I hope you
The Little League World Series is getting ready for the first pitch. Our area high school football fields have come back to life with teams getting ready for an early kickoff to the PIAA pigskin season. Before you know it, August will be the new September for high school football players. This, however, is a
Sometimes, I go through old issues, and I find subjects that I feel need revisiting. This was one of those weeks. A couple of years ago I talked about the need to be NICE.

The middle of July can mean one thing in our area, the Lycoming County Fair. The event began in 1870 as a way for farmers to show and compare their produce and livestock. The salt of the earth event is still going strong. There’s something to be found there for everyone from the demolition derby,
I can’t believe that it is mid-July! Where has the summer gone? Before you know it, it will be time for back to school sales and the Little League World Series. This is actually one of my favorite times of year. There is something about the long nights and hot days that makes me happy.
