My wife and I are small farmers. Farming is hard: when everything goes well, prices are low; when it doesn’t, there’s nothing to sell. Like many small farmers, we pay to grow food for people, but the satisfaction having people eat the food we grow is more than ample reward. Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) helps farmers by letting people buy the food farmers grows. The SNAP program benefits me indirectly by supporting the rural economy generally. I accept Farmer’s Market Nutrition Program (FMNP) coupons, which benefits me directly.

(MCKEAN COUNTY, Pennsylvania; November 9, 2025): District Attorney Stephanie Vettenburg-Shaffer reports that the woman who was convicted at a June jury trial of shooting in the direction of Troopers at a camp in Marshburg, resulting in a 9-hour stand-off in 2024, has been apprehended and extradited back to Pennsylvania. Sharon VANDRISH failed to appear at her scheduled sentencing hearing on August 14th.
A bench warrant was issued for her. She was captured in New York and held in custody until she was extradited back to Pennsylvania through a Governor’s warrant obtained by the District Attorney’s Office. A bench warrant hearing was held on November 6th as required following the apprehension of an offender on a bench warrant. At the hearing, the District Attorney argued that VANDRISH’s bail should be revoked given her failure to appear and flight and announced that there is a warrant for VANDRISH from a Federal agency seeking to remove her from the United States as she is a Canadian citizen. VANDRISH remains incarcerated, and her sentencing has been rescheduled for January. A motion to forfeit the monetary bail previously posted has been filed by the District Attorney’s Office and is pending.

Last week in review: Seasons came to a close for the soccer and women’s volleyball teams, but first, the men’s soccer team made modern history by reaching the United East Conference Championship match for its first time ever.
Also, the basketball seasons got underway, with the women’s team off to its best start in 17 seasons, and the wrestling team had two individual champions at an invitational.
On the horizon: Penn College’s cross-country runners close out their season on Saturday in the NCAA Division III Mid-Atlantic Regional Championship at Big Spring High School in Newville. A year ago at regionals, the men finished 22nd of 29, and the women were 29th of 30. In the team’s last outing a week ago at the United East Championships, the top five Penn College men were Mitchell Campbell, of Riegelsville, Chase Ebeling, of Bellefonte, Ben Causak, of Lebanon, Holden Furey, of Williamsport, and Aaron Guerrisky, of South Williamsport. The top five women were Alexis Durn, of Spring Mills, Elaina Brady, of McConnellsburg, Ellie Miller, of Hughesville, Natalie Greiner, of Mount Joy, and Gwynn Johnson, of Staunton, Virginia.

Sally A. Kasper, artist, collector, and curator of beauty, passed away peacefully of natural causes on November 8, 2025, at the John & Orpha Blair Hospice House, surrounded by her family and the original artwork of her lifelong best friend, Anne (Finley) Fallin. The scene was so very Sally: love, laughter, art and color everywhere you looked.
Sally grew up in North Warren and spent nearly her entire life in Warren, PA, filling every inch of it with art, energy, and enthusiasm. After graduating from The Ray Vogue School in Chicago (later the Illinois Institute of Art), she enjoyed all forms of visual expression — paint, clay, pottery, and anything else she could get her hands on. Her small unfired clay sculptures earned critical acclaim, her bold gestural paintings pulsed with vitality, and her “chard-work” pottery was, in true Sally fashion, both colorful and delightfully offbeat.
