    That’s Amore!0

    Steph Nordstrom

    Happy Valentine’s Day! Whether it’s platonic, familial or romantic, I hope your day is full of love! Since Valentine’s Day is all about the love, I think we should all celebrate by sharing love and kindness with those around us. There are ton of simple gestures (both romantic and not) that you can do to

  • Breaking the Barrier0

    Gerry Ayers

    Running an errand from Loyalsock into Montoursville on a cold, snow-covered afternoon, a moving, jumping object caught the corner of my eye. It was a stray deer trying (in vain) to jump a roadway fence and get onto the bike path. Try as she might, she couldn’t scale it by trying to leap it. So

  • Prejudice Always Hurts0

    Tim Hartzell

    The word prejudice simply means to pre-judge. When we pass judgment on someone before we know anything about him or her, we are guilty of prejudice. I grew up in a very prejudiced environment — and then I became a victim of my own prejudice. Let me tell you about it. When I was about

  • Midwinter Wardrobe Remix0

    Bernadette Ulsamer

    Technically, we have not yet reached the midwinter season, but I’m sure all of us are pretty much done with the cold, ice, and snow at this point. However, no matter how “over it” we feel, we still must endure another 2-3 months of winter weather. So, now is a good time to take inventory

  • Staying Focused0

    Webb Weekly

    Guy Rancourt and his Lycoming College Hoopsters are currently 10th in the nation. They are really playing well and have an impressive 16-1 record. The two-time defending MAC Champs are still the top dog in the Commonwealth. The highflying Warriors are so much fun to watch. You absolutely need to swing by Lamade Gymnasium to

  • Tracking the Trade-Offs0

    Gerry Ayers

    They say life is a matter of compromise. Or, as you’ll see, trade-offs. Read this and decide which ones to keep and which ones to go without. Have your cake and eat it too? Only if you reside in Dubai, have ice for blood, or were born in a crib full of four-leaf clovers. Our

  • Bluegills in the Winter?0

    Ken Hunter

    As a hard water angler, one of the questions I am most often asked is, “Do you ever actually catch any fish?” The answer is a resounding, “Yes! Lots of fish.” The second question is usually, “What kind of fish do you catch?” My answer is, “All kinds of fish, but I most often target

  • Kudos to the Sock0

    Jamie Spencer

    Well, it’s official. The results are finally in. Our beloved Loyalsock Creek was recently named the 2018 Pennsylvania River of the Year. Hooray! The general public voted online. They chose from five other nominated waterways from across the state. The Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (DCNR) and the Pennsylvania Organization for Waterways and Rivers

  • Time Saving Strategies0

    Bernadette Ulsamer

    It can be difficult to get motivated after the rush of the holidays, especially when the weather reminds us that bears have the right idea with the whole hibernation thing. Alas, very few of us have the luxury of “switching off” in the winter. And, even though dreary days seem to drag on, we can

  • It’s 2018 – New Ventures, No Dentures…0

    Gerry Ayers

    The New Year has begun in fine fashion. Got some much-needed rest and relaxation, as in getting two days off in a row for me is as rare as a total eclipse of the sun. As our eyes know, that was already last year! As mentioned in an earlier piece, trying to “give back” with

  • County Hall Corner – Facing the Future0

    Larry Stout

    Yes, it is a new year, and we are all thinking about the future, but for the moment, take a trip back in time with me. Imagine that I am meeting myself twenty years ago. 20th Century Larry (20C Larry) meets me (21C Larry), and we start talking about communications. “Oh, look at this,” 20C

  • Sauerkraut – a ‘Tradition?’0

    Scott Lowery

    Like so many other things in our daily lives, time seems to be racing by. For me, it doesn’t seem possible that this is the 52nd Webb Weekly column penned in the last year. Often at this time of the year, many publications and television shows are filled with those ‘look back’ features that reflect

    This Week’s LION: Heather Wood – Family Healer0

    Larry Stout

    Social work is a profession that concerns itself with individuals, families, groups, and communities in an effort to enhance social functioning and overall well-being. That is a noble-sounding ideal, and it attracts idealistic young people with a strong moral purpose. Some years ago, a South Williamsport native by the name of Heather Wood was an

    Happy Holidays sports fans. Cheers to your joyous celebrations and extra stuffed stockings. It’s the most excellent time of the year. Okay I admit, I am one of the worst shoppers of all time.

  • Family Game Night0

    Erik Nordstrom

    A classic gaming tradition has been making a comeback in recent years with a slew of new card games, board games and tabletop games geared towards folks who grew up playing Monopoly and Yahtzee with Mom and Dad on Friday night. I’m talking, of course, about family game night, and while the classics are all

    • December 20, 2017

    For years on end, I played delivery boy during the Christmas holiday and enjoyed every minute of it. My mother took pride in making cookie trays for all our friends and some neighbors. It was my mission to load them into the car and get them to intended destinations. The variety was outstanding. And the

  • Outfits, Not Just Clothes… After Christmas Shopping0

    Bernadette Ulsamer

    Last year, my Mom and I tried out a new holiday tradition — shopping on December 26th — where I discovered an unexpected blessing of the season, the After Christmas Discount! I scored some major deals and had fun to boot. Not everyone enjoys shopping or shopping with their mother. Truth be told, by the

  • Sporting Matters with Spence… Just Get the Ball to Dom0

    Jamie Spencer

    Dominick Bragalone has always been a special player. I can vividly remember calling a few of his scholastic games. After each broadcast, I became more and more impressed with his blazing speed and effortless power. Dom was outstanding, and the opposition could only hope to contain him. It didn’t matter if they stuffed the box.

    I don’t know about you, but I’m not ready for the Arctic air or the holiday shopping season. We enjoyed some beautiful Autumn weather; hopefully, Mother Nature is not giving us a preview of the winter ahead. Yes, I know I should be better prepared for the official kick-off to the holiday hustle and bustle

    My recent “Movember” awareness effort was an epic failure. An absolute disaster, like my unsuccessful write-in campaign. I am sorry folks, but I was forced to throw in the towel after a few days of growth. My lovely bride wasn’t impressed with the shaggy scruff above my lip. She gave me an ultimatum — shave

    If you have decided to host a holiday event in your home this season, whether it be for friends or family, for Christmas Eve or New Year’s Day, chances are you may be feeling a little overwhelmed, stressed, and exhausted. Or, if you are anything like me, you may be asking yourself “what did I

    I’ve poked fun at the masses for acting like mad men and women as they bust down doorways on Black Friday. However, I scour and scout on “Sensational Saturday” as I make the trek to York, Pennsylvania to a place where it not only offers cool stuff but can also take you back in time.

    Seriously y’all, I think I need an intervention. Maybe it’s the weather? Or it could be pure procrastination in its purest form, but I have accomplished next to nothing as far as the holidays are concerned. But, whether or not I am aboard the Polar Express the train to Christmastown keeps moving! I’ll get on

    In recent weeks there has been much reported regarding the collegiate recruitment process. A lot of it has been negative — usually centering on ‘under the table’ payments or other questionable ‘perks’ to lure talented individuals to specific schools. Throughout all of these proceedings, I don’t ever recall a recruit being swayed by the presence
