Meet Remote Workers
Wilds are Working project bringing six families to Cameron County during the month of July. Kathleen McGuire works with 2-3 clients at a time as a geologist focusing on subsurface oil and gas development. Her passion is cycling. From mountain biking to gravel and road cycling Kathleen enjoys the view from the bike seat.
She has called home cities across the United States including Los Angeles, Houston, and Oklahoma City. Now she wants to reconnect with her roots and enjoy the abundance of state forest and parks. Working remotely allows her to get to know Cameron County and see if living in a small town is the right fit for her.
A committee operating under the direction of the Cameron County Chamber of Commerce had the task of sifting through 41 applications for the PA Wilds Remote Working project. “The committee focused on those ready to relocate and seeking the opportunity to leave big box stores and strip malls behind,” says chamber director Tina Solak.
Vincent C. Horth memorial softball tournament raises funds for C-LV scholarship
OLEAN, N.Y., June 2, 2023 — The second annual Vincent C. Horth Memorial Softball Tournament, held May 28, raised $1,621 for the Vincent C. Horth Memorial Scholarship fund at the Cattaraugus Region Community Foundation.
This year’s tournament brought together 72 players at the Cattaraugus Fireman’s Club for a draft-style tournament that celebrated the life of Vincent C. Horth, a Cattaraugus native who passed away in 2022.
Horth, a skilled mechanic and electrician, loved sports and the outdoors, and particularly enjoyed playing softball. The first Horth Memorial tournament was organized in 2022 as a tribute and a way to raise money for a scholarship in Horth’s name that supports students planning to follow in his footsteps in the mechanical/electrical field.
Horth’s family established the Vincent C. Horth Memorial scholarship at CRCF in early 2023. The fund is making its first scholarship award this year.
Donations can be made to the Vincent C. Horth Memorial Scholarship fund at CRCF, 301 North Union St., Suite 203, Olean, NY 14760 or online at cattfoundation.org.
Important update on Pennsylvania’s fire reporting system:
McKean County Dept of Emergency Services
As we get closer to the deadline for the U.S. Fire Administration to transition to the new national fire reporting system, we are actively exploring alternative platforms that meet a variety of expectations — including affordability, ease of use, quality of data capture, and compatibility with current and future federal requirements.
At this time, we have not executed any agreements with vendors providing service related to the new statewide fire reporting system.
Until a final procurement decision is made (and we have no timeline to share at this point), ESO Solutions Inc. has agreed to suspend the end-of-life decision and keep Pennsylvania on the Emergency Reporting Software Platform.
When negotiations have concluded, our office will provide additional direction to our partners in the fire service through our normal channels.
Bill to Boost Mileage Reimbursement for EMS Passes House, Causer Says
HARRISBURG – With many emergency medical services (EMS) agencies struggling to make ends meet, the General Assembly has approved a bill to boost mileage reimbursements for patient transport, said Rep. Martin Causer (R-Cameron/McKean/Potter).
House Bill 479 would ensure EMS agencies are reimbursed by Medicaid for 100% of the miles they travel with a patient on board receiving care or transport by removing the current exemption for the first 20 miles traveled.
“It really makes no sense to require an ambulance to drive 20 miles before seeing a dime of reimbursement for mileage,” Causer said. “The cost of fuel and the cost of care start as soon as that ambulance pulls away and heads to the hospital. We have a responsibility to properly pay for the services provided.”
Under the bill, EMS agencies would continue to be paid $4 per mile. Causer led the effort last year to increase the mileage reimbursement rate from $2 to $4.
“My proposal also sought to remove the exemption for the first 20 miles, so I’m pleased to see that effort advancing in the House this week,” he said.
A former EMT himself, Causer has long been a leader on EMS issues in the Commonwealth. As part of last year’s budget negotiations, he secured an increase in reimbursement rates for both Advanced Life Support (ALS) and Basic Life Support (BLS) services to $400 and $325 per trip, respectively. The change would represent a reimbursement of approximately 80% of the current base Medicare rate in Pennsylvania, plus a reflection of the change in the Consumer Price Index (CPI) since 2018.
It was only the second increase in the last two decades, with the last increase taking place in 2018, again based on legislation Causer introduced.
He has also supported laws to reimburse for treatment, even when transport does not take place, and for direct payment by insurance companies to ambulance service providers.
“If we expect our emergency medical services providers to respond when we call 9-1-1, we need to do our part to support them,” Causer said. “This is another small step forward, but there is more work to do to keep our EMS agencies solvent.”
The bill now goes to the Senate for consideration.

Public Concerns
PUC Urges Consumers to #CheckForID When Dealing with Door-to-Door or In-Person Energy Sales Agents
Offers Key Tips to Help Identify Legitimate Sales Agents and Avoid Deceptive, Misleading or High-Pressure Marketing Pitches
HARRISBURG – As in-person sales and marketing activities increase across Pennsylvania – driven by warmer weather and continuing fluctuations in energy prices – the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission (PUC) today is offering consumers key tips to help identify legitimate door-to-door energy sales agents and avoid potential scams.
“Pennsylvania has clear rules regarding energy sales practices, and the PUC encourages consumers to understand these important protections,” said Gladys Brown Dutrieuille, PUC Chairman. “PUC regulations provide consumers with essential tools to help recognize deceptive sales practices and avoid falling victim to unscrupulous sales agents.”
Tip #1: Always #CheckForID
Pennsylvania’s regulations for energy sales and marketing require agents who conduct door-to-door activities, or appear at public events, to wear badges that clearly identify themselves and the supplier they are working for.
Identification badges for energy sales agents must include the following:
- Accurate identification of the supplier, including its trade name and …
Motorcycle Ride to Benefit Wellsboro Shared Home
Wellsboro Shared Home, 27 Bacon Street, Wellsboro, announces a motorcycle benefit ride on June 25, 2023. The starting point will be Eisenhauer’s Tioga County-Harley Davidson, 2911 S. Main St. Mansfield, PA, with registration beginning at 9am at their pavilion. Kickstands up by 11:00am. Drivers’ donation is $20; passengers’ $10. All proceeds will benefit Wellsboro Shared Home and her residents.
Participating and co-hosting the event are members of First Baptist Church of Wellsboro. Mr. Eduardo Macias, Vice President of the Williamsport chapter of Christian Motorcyclists Association (CMA) has invited his and other chapters to raise money for the residents at Wellsboro Shared Home. Macias states, “I joined about 6 years ago. I used to travel all over the country because of my job, and I couldn’t join CMA because I wasn’t staying at the same place for a long period of time. Once I found a good place to stay like Wellsboro, I was surprised that there was a chapter in Williamsport, so I joined.
I love to be part of CMA, the fellowship, the things discussed in our meetings, the enthusiasm of our leaders, meeting other CMA-ers, the mission…and of course, the rides. I always did enjoy riding for the ability to see more and breathe the different country smells, etc.
The mission attracted me the most, reaching out to the unsaved, bikers in particular.”
CMA’s vision is changing the world, one heart at a time. We will accomplish our vision through:
- Evangelistic outreach primarily, but not exclusively, to the motorcycling community
- Run for the Son, where we will partner with ministries with world-reaching potential
- Equipping our members in ministry training that aligns itself with Biblical truths
- A servant’s attitude to the world and our members (i.e. Here if you need us)
- Quality products that aid in evangelistic outreach
- An efficient Support Center team
CMA’s mission is to inspire our leaders and members to be the most organized, advanced, equipped, financially stable organization, full of integrity in the motorcycling industry and the Kingdom of God.
“We hope that all riders from all walks join us Sunday, June 25th because our elders deserve the best care as they take the step of moving from their own home into a loving, safe, personal care home” says Wendy Reber, Asst. Administrator. Please call 570-724-2300 or email sharedhm@ptd.net for further information. ####
After-School Programs at Port Allegany Elementary School
Students at Port Allegany Elementary School have enjoyed several after school programs thanks to local professional photographer and paraprofessional at PAES Elizabeth Valentine. Mrs. Valentine wanted to start some creative driven based afterschool programs for elementary students at PAES. She has a passion for the performing and visual arts and wanted to share her knowledge and show students how to look outside the box and get creative with the world around them. She also wanted to encourage them to explore creativity through photography. Her lessons included hands-on experience with lighting, perspective and color, posing, camera angles, set design and commercial and product photography. Students in 4th, 5th and 6th grades learned their lesson for the week and then went out into the school building and outdoors to experiment with photography. The classes included themes and scavenger hunts as well as photo challenges to make the lessons fun.
Each grade had 12-week sessions with Mrs. Valentine for photography. When the photography sessions ended, the after-school sessions focused on the performing arts(acting). Mrs. Valentine introduced her students to comedy improv, how to explore and channel emotions, to think about life experiences and how to get into a character. Mrs Valentine believes these skills greatly help students gather courage to be in front of people, respect their peers as they perform, think about different life experiences and how to channel them into a positive, healthy outlet on the spot. Also, the acting lessons build self-confidence and emotional awareness and reduce stress as well as giving the students a creative outlet to express themselves, The classes help students to understand how different emotions affect their body language and social and emotional well being through performances. Students were also taught how to apply special effects makeup and as importantly, how to properly remove makeup.
Mrs. Valentine hopes to expand her afterschool programs possibly starting school neswspapers at PAES and PAHS. The current programs have been well received by students, staff and parents who appreciate Mrs. Vaentine’s time and talents. The students had some of their photography featured in the 2023 Elementary Art Show.
