HARRISBURG – With the Oct. 21 voter registration deadline rapidly approaching, Pennsylvania Senate State Government Committee Chairman Sen. Cris Dush (R-25) is reminding eligible voters to contact their county elections office with any questions related to voter registration confirmation, election dates, polling place locations and other election-related information.
“Honest, transparent and secure elections remain the cornerstone of our constitutional republic,” said Dush. “Pennsylvania’s elections are run by the commonwealth’s 67 county boards of elections, as such they are the number one local resource to contact for direct voter registration assistance, including what to do if you receive ‘election documents’ in the mail that you did not request.”
Members of the Pennsylvania House Republican Caucus unveiled a set of bills aimed at protecting Pennsylvanians by bringing accountability to violent criminals in the Commonwealth.
The legislation is part of a four-pillared package unveiled by House Republicans aimed at combatting crimes in Pennsylvania. Wednesday’s press conference focused on the third and fourth pillars, which cover prosecution and punishment. Other measures in the package focused on prevention and policing.

This year’s Fall Antique Show & Sawmill Run will be held on Saturday October 12th and Sunday October 13th. Northern Pennsylvania typically reaches peak fall foliage conditions around this time so the forests surrounding the museum will (hopefully) be decked in rich and beautiful colors.
The Antique Show features multiple antique vendors that will be selling their wares in the museum program room. Our vendors have a little bit of everything, including antique tools, vintage clothing, collectible coins, glassware, books, and furniture. Vendors open 9am-5pm Saturday and 9am-3pm Sunday.
Food and beverages will be available for purchase. There is no ATM on site so plan your visit accordingly.
Outside, the museum grounds will come alive with historic trade demonstrations. Saturday 10/12 of our steam-powered circular sawmill will be running from 10 AM to 3 PM. Other demonstrations will be happening over both days of the event at the birch still, lumber camp kitchen, and the Eastern Loggers model railroad display.
Author Joyce Kieffer will give presentations during the weekend on her historic fiction trilogy “The Trees Remember.” Drawing on the author’s career in women’s health and inspired by the forests she calls home in Juniata County; the series follows a young woman as she trains to become a nurse set against the backdrop of Pennsylvania’s booming lumber industry in the late 1800s. Besides scheduled talks at 11 AM & 2 PM on Saturday and 10:30 AM Sunday, Joyce will be on hand to chat with visitors about her books and what motivated the 84-year-old to become a novelist.
