Financial advisors often review with clients the value of adding gold to their portfolio. Montgomery’s Zoe Furman and Montoursville’s Gage Wentzel have already acted upon that advice, returning home from Hershey with state championship gold medals around their necks. The latest in a long line of area grapplers to reach the state wrestling summit, Furman
There may be no known connection between fictional farmer Ray Kinsella in the 1989 movie Field of Dreams. What is soon to be unveiled in Williamsport, but that baseball field in an Iowa cornfield, and the one constructed atop an old city dump have one thing in common: they were both built hoping people would
Our simulator is up and running. The putting green is set. It looks incredible. The Warrior Golf team room is almost finished. Much love to the Plankenhorns for their generous gift. We are so spoiled, and now the guys get to work on their games on campus. 24-7. Beautiful. Thanks to Lycoming College and our
On February 28th, the Lycoming County Beagle Club held its annual Rabbit Hunt. The weather finally broke, giving us a reprieve from bone-chilling cold and snow. With warm weather and a bit of a breeze, my dad and I were able to get the two beagles, Trigger and Radar, out for a run. It didn’t

With warmer temperatures and intermittent rains, we should turn our attention to planning habitat work that will benefit all forms of wildlife. Probably the most important key
The warm weather and the excitement of the World Baseball Classic have me in a baseball mood. I figured this week would be a good time to tip my Oilers hat to the Olean Oilers. They are gearing up for their first season in the Perfect Game Collegiate Baseball League. I was lucky enough to
In a well-known metaphor dating back to 1879, the phrase ‘there’s light at the end of the tunnel’ is often used to describe the end of disappointing times. Unashamedly, repeating its usage today, the same can be said as March’s arrival has brought with it increasing daylight, signs of approaching spring, the beginning of the
At the end of next week, spring will finally usher in warmer temperatures, and as the last of the remaining snow melts away (hopefully!), it’s the perfect time to get out and try your hand at hunting for shed antlers. If you have never looked for them before, you may well be in for a
“The End Marks the Beginning,” and the title of this piece pretty well sums up what happens in March when it comes to our fishing seasons. Our ice fishing is coming to a close, and our trout fishing season is soon to get underway. Yes, some fishermen are still getting out on the ice as
Special thanks to those who gave me some love. I received several notes and thank-yous from readers about some recent columns. Most were nice. A few were not. No worries. Your feedback is amazing. Appreciate the support. You make this worthwhile. Fishing has always been my passion; my lovely bride would say I am somewhat
The Montoursville Hoops team is rolling. The Warriors have punched their ticket to the PIAA State playoffs. Coach Mike Mussina and his guys will face Lewisburg in the District 4 AAA Finals. I plan to go to shake some hands and kiss some babies. They are playing extremely well. Making the extra pass, hitting shots,
