0 Comments

For the first time since 2010, Pennsylvania College of Technology will have its men’s and women’s basketball teams in playoff action during the same season when they take to the court on Saturday as the United East Conference Volt Divisions playoffs begin.

Seeded fourth, coach Geoff Hensley’s men will host fifth-seed Penn State Berks at 1 p.m. at Bardo Gymnasium. Coach Britni Mahoney’s women are seeded sixth and will travel to No. 3 seeded Penn State Abington for a 2 p.m. game.

Saturday’s winners will advance to the division semifinals next Monday, and those winners will square off in the division final next Wednesday. Volt and Skye Division winners will clash on Saturday, Feb. 24, for the UE Championship, with that winner advancing to the NCAA Division III tournament.

Since a seven-game loss string ended on Jan. 16, the Wildcats go into the playoffs having won five of their last eight games, including Wednesday night’s regular-season finale 80-61 win at Gallaudet University that evened their UE record at 6-6 and pushed their overall mark to 9-15.

I’m writing this because this is something I care about deeply and it won’t happen without the support of people like you. Starting a petition isn’t something I would normally do, but I was moved to do so because regulators put the health and safety of the residents of Cyclone at risk . I know I’m not alone and together we can make this change happen. Please sign and share! https://chng.it/TybQykfJDB“

Hamilton-Gibson’s Winter Theatre Arts Camps

0 Comments

Hamilton-Gibson’s Winter Theatre Arts Camps are for third through ninth graders who reside in the Southern Tioga School District, Wellsboro School District, Troy and Galeton School Districts and attend public or private schools or who are home-schooled.

Offered free due to the sponsorship of UPMC, the camp will be held at the Deane Center for the Performing Arts at 104 Main Street, Wellsboro, PA beginning Wednesday, February 1417 and continuing on selected dates through Thursday, Feb. 29 with Pay-What-You-Can performances for the public at 7:00 p.m. Friday and Saturday, March 1 and 2.

Campers will present the musical “Junie B. Jones JR,” a delightful adaptation of four of Barbara Park’s best-selling books created specifically for Broadway Junior performers.“Junie B. Jones JR” features many lovable characters and fun-filled songs. This musical will capture the audience’s and performer’s hearts just as the books captivated an entire generation of students.

Join Junie B. on her first day of first grade, where many changes are in store. Junie’s best friend Lucille has found new best friends and Junie B. makes friends with Herb, the new kid at school. While in Mr. Scary’s class, Junie has trouble reading the blackboard and may need glasses. Add in a friendly cafeteria lady, an intense kickball tournament and a “Top-Secret Personal Beeswax Journal,” and first grade has never been more exciting. 

Each camper will receive a free tee shirt, script, rehearsal CD/thumb drive and instruction.

The campers will be taught choreography, how to project their voices when speaking and singing and how to create a character – all while having fun. Particular roles will be assigned at the first meeting on February 14.

Registration forms for the camp are available at online at the HG website, hamiltongibson.org or can be obtained by calling the HG office at 570-724-2079 or emailing hamgib@gmail.com.

Donation Event Scheduled in Coudersport March 23rd For Victims of Chili Wildfires

0 Comments

Chile is a long narrow country with approximately 4,000 miles from north to south and only 300 miles from east to west. It lies in the Southern Hemisphere bordering Peru in the north, the Andes Mountains Range in the east, Antarctica in the south, and the Pacific Ocean in the West.
The first weekend of February marked the deadliest days of its history. More than 3,000 acres of land burnt down to ashes with terrifying wildfires. The tragedy has taken 150 casualties so far and destroyed about 15,000 homes, and still, there is an unknown amount of missing people.
The Chilean government had no other choice, but to declare an emergency curfew to control chaos and ease the rescue efforts by the police, the military, and firefighters.
Several international governments offered immediate assistance, including President Biden, who sent his deepest condolences to Chile and its victims. The US embassy in Chile already created a call to action and made its first donation.
What Can We Do?
On March 23rd, just one day before Palm Sunday, we will be accepting donations at St.Eulalia Catholic Church in Coudersport, from 10 am to 5 pm. As usual in these tragic events, victims need everything, but due to the distance and shipping costs, we will accept monetary support and only the following items:
-Canned food
-Diapers for adults and children
-Toiletry products
-Toothpaste and toothbrushes
-Socks and underwear
To Think About
Let us remember that we live in northern Pennsylvania surrounded by national parks. This Winter has been very unusual with a shortage of rain and snow. Before we say, “I don’t like snow or rain,” let’s think before complaining about the weather.
It is not about us, it is about our nature. We need to fight against climate change and prevent wildfires in our areas.
When burning garbage, please, do it in an open location, far from flammables, and NOT on a windy day or when it is restricted. Check weather and drought conditions. If you go camping, hunting, or just on a day trip to the parks, take your garbage.
Douse your campfires until they turn totally cold. You may do so by just using a bucket or two of water.
Keep your vehicles off dry grass. Remember that your exhaust can reach temperatures of up to 1,000 degrees!
Keep sparks away from dry vegetation.
If you see any suspicious activity involving arson, call 911 immediately or report this to the park rangers.
We need to protect our nature and ourselves. Otherwise, we could be the next victims.
