With the arrival of Autumn, football has grabbed the attention of local sports fans, while baseball enthusiasts await the arrival of the October playoffs, culminating in the crowning of a World Series champion. Accompanying the chilly days, a warmth of excitement will emanate from Montoursville next Saturday as the Montoursville Little League will be hosting
This coming Sunday, September 22, is the official first day of fall. Before you know it, on Saturday, October 5, the opening day of the Pennsylvania archery deer season will be upon us. With just over two weeks until the opening day, there is still time for some important last-minute items you should consider. Inventory
I’m guessing that it’s a sign that I’m getting older, but I sometimes find myself thinking about some of the great experiences I’ve enjoyed over the years simply because of my interest in the outdoors. My friends and I will also sometimes talk about the enjoyment and great experiences we’ve had while being in the
That about sums it up! But if you’re not into equations, perhaps an explanation is due. Regardless of the back-to-school schedules of individual school districts and the curriculums involved, many students have begun the task of mastering mystifying mathematical tasks. However, for Wellsboro’s Craig West, solving the above-noted mystery has been top-of-mind since long before
My articles are submitted on Friday. My lovely editor has everything else finished, and she is patiently waiting. I do my best not to leave her hanging. I have been on a roll here lately. Perhaps I conquered my struggles with mobile freelance procrastination. Yes. There are so many great stories to tell. I lost
Now that September is here, turkey hunters are on the lookout for potential hunting locations. Each week, in my daily travels, I have spotted hens with their broods and, in some cases, three or four gobblers in a group. On the other hand, I’ve talked to some turkey hunters who say they haven’t been seeing
The statewide archery antlered and antlerless deer season opens in just over three weeks (Saturday, October 5, to be exact), and as the season progresses and nears that “magical” time of the rut, bowhunters will be spending an increasing amount of time in the woods. While hunting from the ground or in a ground blind
Thankfully, school has started. Jensen and Teach are off and running. We enjoyed another fantastic summer. It was capped off with another splendid Little League World Series. A walk-off bunt? You must be kidding. Our addition is mostly finished. But I still have a major punch list. I pulled the trigger on some new knee
Hall of Fame pitcher Satchel Paige once said, “You win a few, you lose a few. Some get rained out. But you get to dress for all of them.” Paige’s statement succinctly describes the Williamsport Crosscutters 2024 season. After outdistancing the MLB Draft League field and winning the league’s first-half championship, the Crosscutters fell in
Tragically, every year, as the hunting season gets underway and the “army” of Pennsylvania hunters hits the woods, unpleasant discoveries are made. As these hunters travel deeper into the woods than normal in pursuit of small or big game, the chances are all too real that they may come across a hiker or camper who
Needless to say, as we begin to move into fall months, Pennsylvania deer hunters are seriously starting to scrutinize the woods and fields around them in hopes of seeing some nice deer racks. I’ll confess that anytime I go anywhere, I’m on the lookout for deer, turkeys, and any other game I can see as
Much has changed since the very first Little League World Series. The national exposure these boys and girls receive nowadays is insane. ESPN and its affiliates not only cover the entire tournament but are now televising most, if not all, of the regional games. Don’t get me wrong, folks. I am loving every moment, and
