A Ringing Remembrance of Dave’s Christmas Spirit
It is beginning to look a lot like Christmas everywhere you go across the West Branch Valley. This Christmas carol seems perfect as we head into December. The song has been recorded by many artists over the years with different musical styles. I’m still old school and like Bing Crosby’s version the best. The song was written by Meredith Wilson in 1951. Bing was the first to record it that same year. Another name that comes to mind is Perry Como, and his version is very popular. As well as Michael Bublé, I think a lot of younger people today think he wrote and recorded the song.
I’m sure as you’re reading this, you’re thinking about your favorite version. The one thing I can say is it definitely puts a little extra Christmas spirit in your step. It’s the perfect background music as the hustle and bustle of the holiday season kicks off.
Our Christmas traditions have begun at our Webb Weekly office. I always know our Blaise Alexander Christmas Fun Coloring Contest has begun when the elves show up on loan from the North Pole. Editor Steph has an update
on the contest and the elves when you flip the page. I just want to warn everybody: if you stop by our office, please look where you’re stepping; the last thing I need this time of year is a workman’s comp claim from one of Santa’s employees. Not to mention, the last thing you need is to make the naughty list because of a mishap. I have elf-crossing signs posted for their safety.
Parents, grandparents, and caregivers make sure the young folks work their Christmas artistic magic and help them get entered. A tip of my Santa hat to the Blaise Alexander Family Dealerships. They have been with us since the very beginning of the Christmas coloring contest.
It’s time for my annual ringing of the bell for the Salvation Army Williamsport. I’m sure many of you reading know the story, but in case you forget, or for new readers, I’ll give you a quick overview.
Dave Sechler was one of the most selfless individuals I have ever met. He would give The Salvation Army blazer off his back to anybody who asked. This held true in every aspect of his life, not
just his efforts for The Salvation Army.
Sech always had a smile on his face and was one of the kindest folks you would ever come across.
Like so many people whose life’s journey crossed mine, it was through sports that I first met Dave. For decades, he took care of basketball and most events held in the gymnasium at the Salvation Army. I was very fortunate Sech let me be involved in hoops at the Sal at a very young age. It was from that we built a friendship that lasted his lifetime.
Dave was always working for the good and loved Christmas time. I would always see him out, making sure the bell was ringing and giving special attention to the annual Red Kettle program. Again, you couldn’t miss him with that big smile and kind words that ended with a Merry Christmas to all. It was this memory that prompted the idea for our Annual Red Kettle Remembrance in Dave’s honor and his lifetime of effort in helping people.
If you would like to read more about Dave and how this began, my columns from 6/4/14 “So Long Sech” and from 12/10/14 “Red Kettle Remembrance” are posted at webbweekly.com.
I’m a big believer in the great work
The Salvation Army does locally. The donations made are used locally to help individuals in a multitude of ways. Some folks might just need a helping hand during the Christmas season. Some might need a helping hand all year long. They provide a wide variety of services to help adults and children from every walk of life.
Dave epitomized their mission to simply help anyone who needed a helping hand. So, it is in this spirit our Red Kettle is set up in the front of our office. We will again be doubling any donation you make either by stopping in or mailing it to Webb Weekly, 280 Kane Street, Suite 2, South Williamsport 17702. If you are mailing it in, please mark the envelope “Remembering Dave.” Webb Weekly matches the first $5,000 in donations. And after that, we see where our combined efforts take us.
For anyone who drops by in person, we will have a Webb Weekly mug full of candy for the extra effort. Please feel free to share any conversation about Dave, The Salvation Army, and Christmastime.
A heartfelt thank you to everyone who has contributed over the years. Please try to make a difference for the good in whatever way you choose. God Bless America.

From the Editor…
Another Year, Another Reminder, Another Year Behind!
At this point, y’all know the story. Yes, I am behind. But look at it this way — it’s only the rst week of December, and I’ve got plenty of time. Am I going to use that time wisely and e ciently? Probably not. But that’s ne. is is ne. Everything is ne.
I don’t know how many years I’ve been the prime handler for Christmas, but so far, I’m batting 1.000. It may be the last second, I may end up stressed, I may end up wrapping the last of the presents in the middle of the night, Christmas Eve, but one way or another, I’ll get it done.
Since we’ve started talking about me being behind in my holiday prep, that means it’s time for my yearly reminder. Are you ready? Let’s go…
“Just a reminder to all of you parents out there to be modest with your gi s from ‘Santa.’ Not all parents have a ton of cash to spend on making their kids’ Christmas specials, so it doesn’t make sense to give your kid a PlayStation 5, a bike, and a Steam Deck while his best friend at school gets a new hat and mittens from Santa. Give something small from Santa
and make the more expensive presents from you. You can explain the value of money to kids, but you can’t explain Santa’s discrimination to a heartbroken kid.”
As always, I’m not telling you how to spend your money. If you are fortunate enough to be able to give your kids an allinclusive vacation to a private island, and enough cash to pay for an Hermes bag for Christmas — you do you. But make that stu from you, not Santa. Remember, YOU did all the work for that stu ; take your credit! Personally, if I’ve done all the work and have the means to buy a kid a private jet, I’d be danged if I’m letting some guy and his little friends take the credit for it.
Let’s remember that the current state of the economy is challenging for many families. e rising prices of everything can make it di cult to give our kids the Christmas they deserve. So, let’s be mindful of this and show empathy towards those who may be less fortunate. A er all, Christmas is about spreading
love and joy, not about who can give the most expensive gi s.
Now that we have that out of the way, let’s talk about something fun! e Blaise Alexander Christmas Fun Coloring Contest! We are o cially in week two! Twinkle Sugarsocks, Merry Peppermintwhirl, and Sprinkle Icicletoes are patiently waiting for the entries to start rolling in. I know once they start, it will be full tilt until the deadline! ey are so excited to see what the kids are going to send! ey are super stoked to see how the kiddos decorate Santa and all his gi s!
e elves have been taking advantage of the not-so-winter weather and have been out and about exploring the area. I heard that they were spotted at the Festival of Lights in Brandon Park and have been waiting for the o cial lighting at Candy Cane Lane. I know they have Joy rough the Grove at Knoebel’s on the agenda, too. is year’s elves seem to be, let’s say — spicy. So if you see them somewhere, it seems like they shouldn’t be, please send them back my way. Jimmy is always around, so he’ll come scoop them up if need be!
All of the details and the coloring page are on pages 18 and 19. e coloring sheet will also be on our Facebook page, so you can print extra copies if you need them!
Now, if you’ll excuse me, I need to do some shopping!

St. John’s School of the Arts To Present “Nutcracker” Ballet at CAC
By Lou Hunsinger Jr.
One of the enduring and classic cultural features of the holiday season will occur at the Journey Bank Community Arts Center, Lycoming College, Saint John’s School of the Arts, and the Williamsport Youth Choir, present the timeless classic –The Nutcracker Ballet on stage at the CAC on Saturday, December 6 at 7:30 p.m. and on Sunday, December 7 at 4 p.m.
Arts Center.” Todd Kendall, Director, St. John’s School of the Arts, told Webb Weekly.
“Like most people, I look forward to this time of year when traditions bring us closer together. When I think of the coming holidays, I immediately think of Victorian Christmas, Thanksgiving, and the Nutcracker Ballet as the three things that officially start this season of joy, celebration, giving, and faith. As the Director of Saint John’s School of the Arts, I invite you to come enjoy the magic of our local musicians and dancers in the glorious Journey Bank Community
The Nutcracker has been presented each holiday season at the Community Arts Center and, before that, at the Capital Theatre for more than 50 years. To continue the tradition, the Journey Bank Community Arts Center, Lycoming College, the Williamsport Youth Choir, and Saint John’s School of the Arts have come together again for the 8th year in a creative collaboration to bring the Ballet to the stage. They plan to WOW audiences with a lavish and imaginative performance of The Nutcracker Ballet.
With Musical Direction by Dr. William Ciabattari and Artistic Direction by Theresa Kendall, The Nutcracker is a classic Christmas ballet about a young girl named Clara (sometimes Marie) who receives a wooden nutcracker doll as a gift at a Christmas party. That night, she sneaks back to check on it and gets swept into a magical adventure.
After midnight, the Christmas tree grows, the Nutcracker comes to life, and Clara helps him battle the Mouse King and his army. Once they win, the Nutcracker transforms into a prince and takes Clara on a journey through a sparkling, enchanted world.
They travel to the Land of Sweets, where the Sugar Plum Fairy hosts a celebration in their honor with dances from around the world — all the iconic music you’re probably picturing. The ballet ends with Clara waking up at home, leaving the audience to wonder if it was all a dream or true magic.
Live music from our finest local musicians, with the talented dancers from Williamsport’s own Saint John’s School of the Arts, in the gorgeous Journey Bank Community Arts Center, will make for an unforgettable performance.
Musicians from Saint John’s School of the Arts will perform before the show in the Capitol Lounge and again during intermission. The Williamsport Youth Choir will perform holiday favorites in the inner lobby during intermission.
Saint John’s School of the Arts (SOTA) is celebrating 29 years of Fine
and Performing Arts instruction. Mission partners with First Church in Williamsport and is housed at their North Campus, 1157 Market Street. SOTA’s programs include: Ballet and Modern Dance (ages three and up), Adult Stretch/Strengthening, Lessons for Strings, Guitar, Wind Instruments, Voice, Piano, Ballroom Dance, Summer Camps, Art Pop-ups, and more! Enrollment opens for the Winter/Spring Semester in December, following the Nutcracker performance. SOTA is a 501(c) (3) nonprofit organization.

The Family Magic of Christmas
Thanksgiving is now in the rearview mirror, and as insane as that feels, somehow we’re already heading into December. I can’t believe how fast time flies and how quickly the months go by. December has always been one of my favorite months for obvious reasons: it’s Christmas! Insert Buddy the Elf yelling, “SANTA!” And that’s the reason I wanted to write this week’s article: Christmas traditions.
When you’re young and growing up, there’s something special about building those Christmas traditions with your family. Some of the best memories we carry into adulthood come from those simple moments, the little things you don’t even realize are becoming core memories until years later.
Some of my favorite traditions growing up were the ABC Family 25 Days of Christmas, going to the movies on Christmas Eve, and our family tree-trimming parties.
Christmas Eve always started with the incredible hors d’oeuvres my dad — Big Jim — made every year. My mom would lock herself away for hours to wrap all our presents, and Hunter and I would do everything we could to sneak in and get a peek at what we were getting. And of course, nothing ever topped the excitement of racing down the stairs on Christmas morning with Christmas music playing on the TV, a fire crackling in the fireplace, and a mountain of presents waiting for Hunter and me to tear into.
I really do miss those days.
But as you get older and find your partner, something interesting happens: the traditions you grew up with start to blend with someone else’s. You suddenly have the chance to remake traditions and grow two families into one. It can be tough at first, because it’s hard to let go of the things you’ve loved for so long. But

MAGIC
as you work through it, you realize you’re growing, and you’re creating new memories as a couple.
Now we get to blend two families. For example, my wife’s family always did the Feast of the Seven Fishes on Christmas Eve. So now we go there and celebrate with them, and afterward we head to my family’s house for our traditional movie night. Then on Christmas morning, Lauren and I open presents together just the two of us. That’s our moment.
Our tradition. Our memory. And each year, we add another tradition that’s just ours.
Yes, this has required some bending and some tough choices from both of us. A few of our old traditions just don’t fit anymore. It does sting that she isn’t for the tradition of opening one present on Christmas Eve — I really liked that one! But there are still great memories we carry with us, and at the same time, we’re building
new ones. Our hope is to honor both the Raemore and Webb traditions while also creating traditions that reflect who we are together.
And as time goes on, when we have children, they’ll grow up surrounded by two loving families and a lifetime of traditions, old ones, new ones, and the ones we’ll create just for them.
At the end of the day, that’s all we can really hope for… to be together, be present, and honor our families. If we can hold onto those three things, I believe we’ll build meaningful holiday traditions that last for generations.
This holiday season, my advice and challenge to you is to enjoy the little things. Don’t get wrapped up in the idea that everything has to be perfect. If you’re with your family, it is perfect. Enjoy the time, and love one another. Have a great holiday season and build your own traditions and memories.
“These commandments that I give you today are to be on your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road…” ~ Deuteronomy 6:6-7
NEW BUSINESS
Ironclad Vehicle Undercoating
Opens State-of-the-Art Facility on Lycoming Creek Road
WILLIAMSPORT, PA — A new specialized automotive service has arrived in Lycoming County as Ironclad Vehicle Undercoating o cially opened its doors this past October. Owned by Mort Neely and Yancy Cupp, and operated by Cupp’s son Connor Cupp, the business has already seen strong demand, undercoating vehicles seven days a week from its modern facility at 2575 Lycoming Creek Road.
Neely and Cupp launched Ironclad a er identifying a growing need for a dedicated, professional undercoating and rust-prevention center within the area.
eir new shop features top-of-the-line spray equipment, industrial-grade li s capable of handling larger vehicles, and a layout designed exclusively for corrosion-protection work. e goal, they say, is to o er a higher standard of preventative maintenance than general repair shops can typically provide.
Cupp, who also owns Yancy’s Auto Sales in partnership with McKinney Speed Shop, is no stranger to the issues caused by rust. His frequent visits to regional auto auctions have given him a rsthand look at the number of vehicles su ering from structural damage severe enough to fail Pennsylvania state safety inspections. “So many of these problems could have been prevented,” Cupp explained, “if the vehicles had been properly treated early on.”
Neely brings an equally strong background to the operation. Voted Williamsport’s Man of the Year in 2015, he and Cupp have been friends for several years, originally meeting through Cupp’s Vacuum Center. e pair spent the past year training hands-on with Troops Undercoating in Paxinos, PA, learning the specialized techniques and product knowledge required to deliver long-lasting, high-quality results.
While undercoating is traditionally associated with pickup trucks, the Ironclad team stresses that SUVs and passenger cars are just as vulnerable to corrosion— especially with the increasing use of new road-treatment chemicals. In addition to rock salt, PennDOT now regularly applies brine, a liquid mixture that studies have shown can be up to 100 times more corrosive to vehicle undercarriages.
Independent research shows that vehicles treated with lanolin-based products such as WoolWax or Fluid Film can last two to three decades longer before developing the structural failures commonly seen in untreated vehicles. ese coatings protect high-risk components including frames, brake lines, fuel lines, body mounts, rocker panels, and suspension components.
With trained technicians, modern equipment, and a focus on customer education, Ironclad Vehicle Undercoating aims to provide a reliable, long-term solution for drivers looking to protect their investment.
Ironclad Vehicle Undercoating is located at 2575 Lycoming Creek Road, Williamsport. ey can be contacted at 570-932-1245 or ironcladundercoating@gmail.com.
UPMC Expert: Finding Calm in the Chaos: Managing Holiday Stress for a Healthier Season
he holidays are often described as “the most wonderful time of the year,” but for many people, they can also be the most stressful. Between shopping, family gatherings, financial strain, travel, and end-of-year work deadlines, it’s no wonder so many of us feel overwhelmed.
phone call that brightens a loved one’s day, or the simple act of being present. Give yourself permission to do less. Prioritize the traditions and gatherings that truly matter to you and let go of the rest. When you lower the bar from “perfect” to “good enough,” you’ll often find the joy that was missing before.
Maintain Healthy Habits
The good news is that while we can’t always control what’s happening around us, we can learn to manage our responses and protect our well-being. Here are some practical strategies to help you navigate the holiday season with more peace and joy.
Set Realistic Expectations
The pressure to create a “perfect” holiday can leave us feeling exhausted and disappointed. Social media and advertising only add to the illusion that everyone else’s celebrations are flawless. In reality, the most meaningful moments often come from imperfection, the burnt cookies that still taste great, the quick
Routines tend to go out the window during the holidays, but maintaining some consistency helps your body and mind stay balanced.
• Stay active. Even short walks, stretching, or light exercise can reduce tension and boost your mood.
• Eat mindfully. Enjoy your favorite holiday foods, but try to balance heavier meals with lighter, nutritious options.
• Get enough sleep. Late nights, travel, and disrupted schedules can wear you down quickly. Make rest a priority so you can fully enjoy your time with others.
• Limit alcohol and caffeine. Both can

increase anxiety and interfere with sleep quality.
Small choices, like drinking a glass of water between social events or carving out ten quiet minutes for deep breathing can make a big difference in how you feel.
Recognize and Manage Emotional Triggers
For some, the holidays bring feelings of sadness, loneliness, or grief. Maybe it’s the first season without a loved one, or perhaps family dynamics are complicated. These emotions are completely valid. If you find yourself struggling, try reaching out to a friend, a faith community, or a mental health professional. Sometimes just talking about what you’re feeling can lighten the load. Journaling, mindfulness, and gratitude exercises can also help shift perspective and remind you of what remains meaningful in your life.
Focus on Connection Over Perfection
What most people remember about the holidays isn’t how perfectly the gifts were wrapped or how well the meal turned out, it’s how they felt. Shared laughter, a handwritten card, or simply spending time together can mean more than anything bought in a store.
of kindness have been shown to lower stress, improve mood, and even benefit physical health.
Take Time to Reflect
As the year comes to a close, set aside quiet moments to reflect on what went well and what you’d like to change in the new year. Gratitude journaling, writing down even a few things you’re thankful for, can reframe your mindset and improve your overall outlook.
The holiday season doesn’t have to leave you feeling depleted. By setting boundaries, caring for your body, and focusing on what truly matters, you can find calm in the chaos and rediscover the joy this time of year is meant to bring.
And if you notice that stress, anxiety, or sadness are becoming overwhelming or persistent, don’t hesitate to reach out for support. Talking with your primary care provider or a behavioral health professional can help you find healthy ways to cope and feel more like yourself again.
This season, give yourself the gift of grace because your health and peace of mind are worth protecting all year long.
Consider giving experiences instead of things, volunteering as a family, or finding ways to help those in need. Acts

All through the year, we’ve waited, Waited through spring and fall, To hear silver bells ringing, See wintertime bringing the happiest season of all.
Karen Carpenter sang it best with the opening of her version of e Christmas Song. e season is nally here! Christmas season, and I couldn’t be more excited! My favorite time of year. e older I get, the more
it’s honestly still magical. I think it’s because it’s the one time of year I feel like a kid again, but also because no one ever tells us how fun it is once we have our own children. Watching my kids this time of year and seeing them look forward to our family traditions makes me all warm and fuzzy inside. is month brings so many fun things we have planned.
But you know what else this month brings? Joy. And you know who is creating some of that joy? Our son
Tyler. He turned sixteen this year and bought a Subaru Outback. He decided to go chop down a real Christmas tree, load it with lots of colored lights, and strap that puppy to the top of his car. Yes, it looks like the car from the movie, “Christmas Vacation.” We love that movie and always watch it as a family every Christmas, multiple times. You can’t miss his car, though. It’s so bright and beautiful, especially at night. He has had people beep, wave, give him a thumbs-up, ask to take pictures, and get video of him driving down the highway, and he has already brought so many smiles. I said, “Ty, do you know how much joy and smiles you are bringing to people this Christmas season?” It’s been so neat to see. People point and smile, and it makes me smile because I know the joy it brings me to see Christmas lights where you least expect them. I have fun driving it too, but I give Ty all the credit. When you see it, you’ll know it’s Tyler’s car. You can’t miss it! I hope you get to see it this season, and it brings a smile to your face.
We actually just got home from visiting Candy Cane Lane. Even though their opening night was tonight, I’ve already been over there ve times before it was even fully lit. I get excited just knowing they are getting things ready. Being over there tonight in Ty’s car, my hubby said the car was getting as much attention as the houses! People were just loving the tree, and by gosh by golly, it’s gonna be over there A LOT this year. Our cars are standard, so it’s not as enjoyable to go up Summer Street on busy nights. But Ty’s car? Oh, that’s gonna be my ride this year. Now they will know every time I am over there and how many times I go up and down, HA! So if you visit Candy Cane Lane and see a car with a Christmas tree on top, there is a very, very good chance it’s me. You know what else? I’d love for you to stop by and see me next week. I am planning to be at Rust and Shine in Williamsport for the premiere of my brand-new volume two, “ e Grateful Table,” cookbook! Ahhhh! I am so excited!! Now, I placed my order, and my cookbooks are supposed to be here by the second week of December. So I planned to be there in person with the wonderful owners of Rust and Shine to sell my cookbooks on Friday, December 12, from 3-7 p.m., and Sunday, December 14, from 1-5 p.m.
I had considered bringing some of my family with me so you could meet them.
I mean, they are practically Webb Weekly famous as much as I talk about them! I thought it would be fun to have one of them at the table with me during those times, but I haven’t gured out the details yet. All I know for sure is I will be there to greet you, meet you, and also sign your cookbook if you would like it signed. ese will be the only cookbooks available before Christmas, so don’t miss out! My rst ones are hot o the old press. It’s so exciting! I can’t wait for you to see it. I will give you more details next week, but for now, these are the ATTENTIVE dates and times, so save the date! *insert my super big, excited, cheesy smile here*
Let’s chat more next week!
Until then, enjoy the joys of the Christmas season!

Breathing to Survive Holiday Stress
* is article is intended for education and entertainment purposes only, so talk to your doctor before trying anything new.
The holiday season can bring on a full sensory experience of sights, sounds, and smells. We all have those neighbors who put the power grid in jeopardy by going all out with lights and decorations, Clark Griswold style. People are baking cookies and pies, and the air in every co ee shop is lled with the scent of pumpkin spice. No surprise, the radio stations are once again playing Christmas music way too early. For some people, however, the holiday season is not all sweet memories and Sugar Plum fairies.
I wrote an article around this time last year titled, “Just Breathe for Holiday Stress Management.” In the article, I explained that the holidays can be stressful, if not downright traumatic, for some people. For many people, this time of year can bring back memories of loved ones that are missed or have passed, the chaos of trying to nd the perfect gi , the stress of overspending, or simply loneliness. All of which can make this a time of crippling anxiety and depression.
My article also discussed some tips for dealing with milder cases of stress and
anxiety, such as talking with a friend, taking some quiet time to collect your thoughts, or maybe even a good workout to burn o some steam. I also mentioned the o en-overlooked method of performing breathing exercises for managing anxiety. Well, being the human guinea pig that I am, I have been consistently experimenting with several breathing techniques to manage a few stress-related issues that middle-aged men o en have to deal with. In truth, my blood pressure has been creeping up over the last several years, and, like most people my age, I usually feel that if I don’t take on the weight of the world, nothing will ever get done. All of this is coupled with the body of a longretired athlete that has seen more than a few injuries and whose joints sound like a bowl of Rice Krispies. I gured I couldn’t write an honest article if I didn’t at least try some of the techniques I wrote about. e crazy thing was, the more I practiced these techniques, the more bene t I got out of them. I’ve actually stuck with the practice quite well. Adding two twenty-minute sessions most days to my existing routine of exercise, mostly good nutrition, and other modalities.

remember my earlier article, let’s take a minute to review some basic physiology. When someone is under physical or emotional duress, they go into some degree of ght-or- ight mode. is is controlled by the sympathetic nervous system (SNS). Stress hormones are released; their chest may begin to heave, and breathing will increase in frequency and intensity. eir body is getting ready to face whatever threat is perceived. is is our natural response to extreme stress and a built-in survival mechanism. When faced with lifeor-death situations, our ability to perceive stress is a good thing and may even save our lives. We are not, however, built to be in this state of high alert for very long. It is meant for the rare occasion when we need it to get out of trouble, and there is abundant evidence that being too stressed for too long leads to all kinds of damage to our minds and bodies.
When I talk about talk to my clients or in public forums, I o en hear, “I’m always stressed,” and “ ere is no way to not be stressed.” e common theme seems to be that there will always be stress and that people lack control over their stress. ey are partially correct. True, there will always be some level of stress in a person’s life. at’s life! ere are ups and downs. However, we do have some control over how we perceive stress and how we respond to stress. All of us have friends for
whom everything is an emergency. eir week is just shot trying to pick out curtains, or Starbucks is out of their favorite latte avor, and their world is ending. en we have those friends who are never bothered by anything. eir house blew up, no problem, they always wanted a skylight, and who needs stu anyway? What I propose is nothing that extreme. I just want to help you nd middle ground without resorting to pharmaceutical intervention with a million side e ects, if possible.
When stressed, and not in immediate danger, the aim should be to activate the parasympathetic nervous system (PNS). e “rest and digest” system, if you will. Like the SNS, the PNS is part of the autonomic nervous system. While they are opposing systems, they are both largely automatic and help maintain homeostasis, or balance, within the body. Could you imagine if we had to think about our heart beating or breathing? Because these systems are part of a largely automatic network of neurons that control organ systems, it was thought there was little control over them. Au contraire! We absolutely, with practice, can a ect these systems. Just like we can activate our SNS by breathing heavier and psyching up for an event that requires power, we can activate our PNS by slowing down our

out. If this is the case, why then are we not doing this regularly to de-stress? As I mentioned in my earlier articles, I basically grew up in a powerli ing gym that was populated by correctional o cers and a goofy kid, me. ings like stress management were complete ction, and yoga was considered a swear word. Heaven forbid you ever got caught exing in a mirror. You’d never hear the end of it. So, learning breathing techniques to relieve stress was not a thing. Flash forward to middle age. Two health degrees and decades of experience, and I think something so simple as breath
control may be one of the greatest and overlooked discoveries in the last couple of millennia. In fact, I’ve found it so e ective for reducing stress and increasing mental focus that I would put it up there with exercise and nutrition as basic pillars for health.
I mentioned that I have experimented with several techniques. While I am not one to directly o er advice in my articles, I will tell you what I do, and you can decide for yourself if it would be bene cial to look into. e basic techniques are easy to learn. First, there is diaphragmatic (belly) breathing. Many people have a habit of
breathing from the chest by li ing their chest when they inhale. While this will keep you alive, it is somewhat ine cient. Conversely, diaphragmatic breathing calls for relaxation of the chest and an expansion of the belly to draw breath. ink of a sleeping infant. is technique allows for an increase in lung capacity and e ciency. Try lying at with one hand on your belly and the other on your chest. e goal is to only allow the hand on your belly to rise. Slowly inhale through your nose and exhale through your mouth. Allow your “abdomen” to ll with air, then slowly contract those muscles as you exhale. With a little practice, it will be easy to master.
Next, I slowed things down. I added long, slow breaths to my diaphragmatic
breathing practice, with a 6-second inhale and a 6-second exhale, in a very quiet spot. Slightly longer than I originally wrote. I began with 5 minutes, and with time, was able to quickly increase my time to 20-30 minutes. ough I thought I would get bored, and did a little in the beginning, I have learned that if I focus on my breathing, the time ies. When my mind keeps jumping from thought to thought as it does on some days, I simply let stray thoughts oat away. When I’m nished, I nd that my stress has melted away and my mental focus is much improved. No one should be intimidated by breathing exercises, and everyone can start with just a few minutes a day and work up from there. For me, it’s been life-changing.

County Hall Corner: The Heart of Democracy
By Blair Steward
ometimes, the most unexpected beauty emerges from the routine. Who would have thought that a simple government meeting about job vacancies could reveal such profound insights into grace, cooperation, and the art of working together? It’s in these everyday moments that we find the most inspiring lessons about humanity.
The November 20th Lycoming County Commissioners meeting showcased fiscal responsibility that revealed something beautiful about human nature and collaboration. The commissioners methodically reviewed empty job listings throughout county government, eliminating countless vacant positions that had accumulated over the year. This careful process saves taxpayers significant money by ending health insurance costs for nonexistent employees, demonstrating the kind of attention to detail that good stewardship requires.
Amidst the administrative tasks, a spark of humanity ignited when the commissioners identified a position that represented a genuine need. Their immediate action to ensure someone was waiting to be hired for it transformed routine administrative work into a powerful demonstration of genuine care for both fiscal responsibility and community service. This moment was a testament to the transformative power of empathy in our
daily tasks.
This interaction serves as a potent reminder: the past matters less than present action. The commissioners’ ability to work together and find solutions, without dwelling on past oversights, is a model we can all follow. Instead of assigning blame, they focused on moving forward constructively. This approach, if applied to our personal relationships and community engagement, can lead to a more positive and forward-thinking future.
Family members often hold different political opinions, leading us to waste energy debating how they arrived at those perspectives rather than finding common ground. Their experiences shaped their viewpoints just as ours shaped our own beliefs. God doesn’t care about the specific path we take to reach Him, only that we make the journey.
Our relatives and friends developed different opinions through different lives and different experiences. Recognizing this reality helps us approach disagreements with curiosity rather than judgment. Each person’s journey contains valid elements worth understanding, and this understanding is the key to maintaining healthy and harmonious relationships.
Picture Republicans and Democrats gathering socially without anyone knowing party affiliations. Friendships would form between people who supposedly should
hate each other according to political rhetoric. Shared interests in family, community, hobbies, and faith would create bonds that transcend artificial partisan divisions. These natural human connections demonstrate how much we actually have in common despite political differences.
The beauty of our local government lies partly in this principle. Many residents, myself included, have no idea which political party our commissioners represent, and frankly, don’t care. We see the work they accomplish and appreciate the fruits of labor from all citizens of Lycoming County. Their collaborative approach to governance shows what becomes possible when people prioritize results over partisan positioning.
This focus on outcomes rather than ideology creates the foundation for effective problem-solving. When the commissioners caught that position during their review, they didn’t debate political implications or assign responsibility for previous oversights. They recognized a community need and took action to address it. This pragmatic approach serves taxpayers far better than ideological grandstanding.
We can apply this lesson to our own re-
lationships during this Thanksgiving season. Instead of rehashing old arguments or analyzing how family members developed their perspectives, we can focus on appreciating their presence in our lives. Rather than trying to change minds, we can work on changing hearts through genuine care and understanding.
The careful work of eliminating vacant positions became meaningful when human needs entered the equation. Routine family interactions become special when we inject genuine interest in each other’s well-being. Asking about someone’s life shows more love than debating their political views.
Children watching these dynamics absorb powerful lessons about handling differences constructively. When adults demonstrate that relationships matter more than being right, young people learn to value connection over conflict. These skills prepare them for citizenship in a democracy that requires collaboration across different perspectives. Our county benefits when residents follow the commissioners’ example of practical cooperation. Projects advance more efficiently when stakeholders focus on shared objectives rather than partisan differences. Economic development thrives when businesses observe stable, collaborative leadership rather than constant political drama.
As we approach a season of gratitude, let us choose understanding over judgment, cooperation over conflict, and gratitude over grievance. Let us remember that focusing on shared objectives, whether in governance or personal relationships, is the key to achieving meaningful results and fostering a sense of unity and harmony.

Achoo.
You’ll have plenty of those in the next few months –and sni es, body aches, and chills. So what can you do to take care of the only body you’ll ever have? Get some ideas from these great new books… First, if you’ve been in a long relationship with pain, isn’t it time to break up? Grab “It Doesn’t Have to Hurt” by Sanjay Gupta, MD (Simon & Schuster, $30.00) and nd out how pain works, why it happens, and what you can do about it. is is an easy-to-understand book –Gupta uses real medical terms – but he doesn’t confuse readers. Instead, what you’ll read here may help you to help your doctor, and get well. What better way to feel better than to look back at history, but not yours. Go farther with “Convent Wisdom: How Sixteenth Century Nuns Could Save Your Twenty-First Century Life” by Ana Garriga and Carmen Urbita (Avid Reader Press, $28), where the past has a lot to teach. See how long-ago nuns ate (or didn’t), how they worked, how they
dealt with others and friends, and how their lives and deaths might help you live a happy, healthy, blessed and longer life.
Here’s something provocative, something you’ll want to know about, especially if you’re a fan of true crime or medical mysteries: microchimerism, and with “Hidden Guests: Migrating Cells and How the New Science of Microchimerism is Redi ning Human Identity” by Lise Barneoud (Greystone Books, $27.95), following this medical rarity is easy. Brie y, the cells in our bodies can migrate in ways that we’re just now understanding, and this book helps untangle microchimerism with tales and examples, hypotheses, and science. It’ll also make you wonder about the cells in your own body, and about the very nature of identity.
If childbirth or pregnancy is on your health-radar in the near future, “Unbearable: Five Women and the Perils of Pregnancy in America” by Irin Carmon (Atria, $30) might be a book you want. It’s about having a baby in America, the changes made politically and medically, and what other women have to say about their experiences. Be aware that this is a very balanced book, and it calls for unity.
And nally, if you have eyeglasses, a
knee replacement, or false teeth, you’ll want to read “ e Body Digital: A Brief History of Humans and Machines
from Cuckoo Clocks to ChatGPT” by Vanessa Chang (Melville House, $19.99). It’s about technology, and how even the most simple devices, implants, and tools have changed the way we act, work, and live. So you might wonder what the future could look like, which is why you’ll want to read this book. Six Million Dollar Man, indeed.
If these health-related books don’t exactly hit the right tone for you, then head to your local library or bookstore. ere, you’ll nd lots of books for what ails you, books to make you feel better and ideas for your well-being. You can even get help getting those books o the shelf, if you need it. And gesundheit.

ard to categorize and elusive in nature, the “going out” top can range from a sparkly camisole to a festive knit. It can be a blouse, a T-shirt with a twist, a tank top, or even a turtleneck. With the holiday season upon us, you’ll want to be ready with a few going-out tops for go-to party looks. I tend to pair my party tops with jeans this time of year. No matter your age, shape, or personal style, a version of this outfit formula always works, unless the dress code is more formal. But for family gatherings, house parties, and even a New Year’s Eve night out, this good old combo of jeans and a cute top will see you stylishly through your holiday social calendar. Here’s a rundown of some top options. Before we talk tops, let’s talk jeans. For parties, dinners, cocktails, etc., dark denim is best. It’s dressier than lighter washes, but not as stiff as suit pants. I like the idea of a trouser-style jean for a night out, like NYDJ’s Mona Wide Leg Trouser Jeans. Or you can even go with a black pair, such as Quince’s Bella Stretch Wide Leg Jeans, especially if your top is black for a monochromatic look. You can go with a novelty jean like Loft’s Velvet Bow High Rise Straight Jeans that feature little velvet bows, or an embellished jean, but they tend
Bernadette Ulsamer
not to be as versatile as plain dark wash denim. You’ll also want to consider hem length and shoe choice. Heels are festive and look great with wider leg jeans, but for wintery nights a boot may better serve you, so consider if you want to tuck jeans into boots or have them fit over.
Now for top talk. No matter the style, silhouette, or cut of a top, what sets apart the goingouts from the everyday is fabric, embellishment, trimming, and notions. Material-wise, satin is a safe choice for wearing out and about during the holiday season. You can go with a simple classic like Vince Camuto’s Shirred Satin Top available at Nordstrom’s with its gathered neckline and loose fit. Or try a standard shirt like Mango’s Flowy Satin Shirt and wear it like you would any other button-down. The satin fabrication elevates a basic silhouette even when paired with jeans.
The same can be said for velvet, another classic holiday choice. You can go with a standard black option, like Lands’ End Long Sleeve Velvet Blouse tucked into black jeans, for a simple yet celebratory outfit. Or go bold with Boden’s Flora V-Neck Velvet top in “cherry jam,” aka a rich pink shade. The lace trim on the v-neckline and slightly puffed sleeves add to the festive feel of
what would otherwise be a plain cotton long-sleeve shirt you might typically wear with jeans—style it with velvet tops, gold jewelry, and a heeled shoe, whether a boot or a pump.
For those of you looking to make a statement at your holiday functions, consider sequins for your go-to wow moment. Even when worn with jeans, a sequined going-out shirt amplifies your look. Zara’s Semi-Sheer Sequin Blouse features a high collar and elasticized trim at the waist and wrists for a softer, romantic take on a going-out top. The sequins detail reads as sprouts of holly rendered in black and silver, right on theme for the season. For a bolder take, check out Chico’s Art Deco Dolman Sequins Tee, all in gold. This has the ease of a T-shirt but the impact of a cocktail dress. And with sequins, there’s less need for jewelry, streamlining your getting-ready routine.
I would be remiss if I didn’t mention sheer shirts when talking about going-out tops. Sheer, whether rendered in mesh or lace, can be very tricky. You can go with a blouse that has sheer elements, like just the sleeves, or with a completely see-through garment that requires layers. A sheer top can be great at overpacked parties, giving you some built-in ventilation, or it could be a tacky disaster that exposes your bra. I think White House Black Market’s Sheer Metallic Clip Ruffle Blouse nicely walks the line. With cascading ruffles down the neckline, flounced cuffs, a floral pattern, and a metallic sheen, this romantic blouse makes for a memorable (in a good way) going-out
top. Definitely layer with a camisole and dark jeans for a ladylike approach to sheer. Speaking of sheen, metallic is another option for going-out tops. Macy’s Vince Camuto Metallic V-Neck Sheer-Sleeve Top also includes that sheer element with enough coverage for holiday gatherings. In ultra red, rich purple, or bronze, this top will pop with any denim-and-shoe pairing. For a cutesy take, check out J.Crew Factory’s Metallic-Dot Puff-Sleeve top in gold and black lurex. The pattern and shorter sleeves will stand out at any party with wide-leg, high-rise jeans and cherryred shoes.
Of course, what’s the point of the holidays if you can’t wear sweaters? Not all knitwear meets the level of going-out status, but if you find a particularly festive option, wear it with jeans for a no-fuss, snuggly party look. Lands’ End’s Lace Pointelle Puff Sleeve Cardigan in coral red will fit in at any holiday gathering. The subtle pointelle knit and short puff sleeves will make this the cutest cardigan in your closet. For something with a bit more edge, look to Vince Camuto’s Cozy Crewneck Sequined Raglan-Sleeve Sweater in rich black or medium heather gray. This combines coziness with sparkle.
Whether satin or velvet, sequins or metallic, the point of a going-out shirt is that it’s meant to stand out or at least apart from your typical tees, blouses, and cardigans. You can have several for this season that you can easily rotate with the same pair of jeans and shoes to stylishly meet all of your party and going-out needs.

here are many ways to gauge a lm’s legacy: critical tributes, bestof lists, online ratings — not to mention Oscars and a host of other honors.
the prestigious American Film Institute had given IAWL top spot on their list of 100 most inspirational lms. And the movie has been praised by such masters as Kurosawa, Lynch, del Toro and Spielberg — with the latter placing it rst among his own faves.
(A recent USA Today article puts Mr. Spielberg in good company; apparently the lm is Pope Leo’s favorite, too.)
As a lifelong reader, I like to ask how many books have been written about (or inspired by) the movie. Until this year, I thought the record-holder was Psycho — which has generated no less than 10 di erent volumes. But a quick online search reveals that It’s a Wonderful Life has produced at least 14 — including two cookbooks!
In light of my December 11 talk on this beloved classic (Brown Library, 5:30 p.m. — free!), I’m working on a few of those tomes right now. So here’s some cool trivia regarding one of America’s greatest lms:
In its time, IAWL was tapped for ve Oscars, winning only one — for “technical achievement,” related to its ground-breaking creation of “chemical snow.”
“Before then,” says Wikipedia, “movie snow was usually made from untoasted corn akes, which were so loud when stepped on that dialogue had to be redubbed a erwards.”
Released in Manhattan in December 1946, Wonderful Life (IAWL) was initially a box-o ce op; ranking 26th the following year (a er it had gone wide), it was eventually tagged as a nancial loss for RKO Pictures.
But then, over the ensuing decades, the movie’s copyright lapsed, enabling widespread holiday showings that swi ly revived its reputation. By 2006,
And before you get uppity about those Oscar snubs: Remember this was 1946; no lm on earth could’ve defeated the post-war juggernaut Best Years of Our Lives.
As for actual development and production: IAWL was based on an unpublished story that had been sent to its author’s
Winter Consignment Auction
friends as a Christmas gi ; initial scripters included Cli ord Odets, Dalton Trumbo and Dorothy Parker (though none of these were credited).
While James Stewart and Donna Reed landed the lead roles, others in the running included Cary Grant, Henry Fonda, Olivia de Havilland, Jean Arthur and Ginger Rogers.
Lionel Barrymore was a natural choice for Potter, as he had famously played Scrooge in various radio renderings of Christmas Carol.
(Ever notice how three Xmas standards all have a scowling misanthrope driving the plot? I refer of course to the Grinch, Mr. Scrooge and Potter. And note as well that both Mr. Potter and Ebenezer are in the business of lending money at exorbitant rate. Plus, both Carol and IAWL feature supernatural visitors playing with the past and future. Hmmm…)
Frank Albertson — here playing George Bailey’s romantic rival, Sam Wainwright — went on to later fame as another rich man: In Hitchcock’s Psycho, he’s the Texas tycoon who tempts Marion Crane with $40,000.
en there’s the familiar face of the young man who, during the high-school dance, suggests that the gym oor be opened so the pool underneath can gobble up the hoofers; that’s Alfalfa from the Young Rascals.
And near the end, Nick the bartender — who harasses Mr. Gower and disses Clarence about bells and angels — well,
that’s Sheldon Leonard; boomers know him from the credits of various hit TV shows he produced: Andy Gri th, Gomer Pyle, Dick Van Dyke and I Spy.
Speaking of Gower: the actor playing the town druggist — owner of the store where young George works — is H. B. Warner, whose career spanned more than 130 titles; at the time he was best known for playing Jesus in Cecil B. DeMille’s original King of Kings (silent, 1927).
One nal cast note: ere’s a second “Jimmy” in this lm — namely, the raven who apparently serves as mascot at the Bailey Building and Loan. According to Michael Willian’s book on IAWL, Jimmy — who was found and trained by legendary Hollywood animal wrangler Curley Twiford — could deal cards, undo zippers and comb hair, among other skills. Stewart claimed the bird was so smart it required fewer re-takes than the human performers. Jimmy the raven has his own Wikipedia page, where we learn that he appeared in perhaps 1,000 lms — including e Wizard of Oz, in which he lands on Scarecrow during one early scene.
As you can see, a er nearly 80 years, IAWL has accumulated lots of trivia — some of which appears to be legendary (like the names Bert and Ernie). But we’re out of space and will save that for next week.
In the meantime, put December 11 on your calendar — and join us for a wonderful night!

The Roving Sportsman… Christmas Gift Ideas for 2025 TrueGrade Excavating
By Jon Pries
attached to other consumer products given as gi s.
With the Pennsylvania black bear season in the books and our antlered and antlerless deer season now underway, it’s hard to believe it, but in just three weeks, Christmas Day will be upon us! If you are in a quandary about what to get your signi cant other or a sportsman on your gi list, here are a few suggestions:
Firearms: Yep, nothing quite says “I love you, dearest!” like a package unwrapped on Christmas morning that yields to the unsuspecting recipient a longed-for rearm that they have daydreamed about for months and months!
But there are a few things you need to keep in mind before you head out to shop for a rearm of any kind for your signi cant other, son, daughter, or your best hunting buddy. ere are some legal and ethical obligations applicable to rearms that are not
First and foremost, you need to make sure whether or not the intended recipient can legally own a rearm where they live. Are they old enough? In some states, there is a minimum age for owning a handgun. Might there be any type of criminal background that you are not aware of? During the actual purchase and registration process, a background check will be accomplished that will (should) uncover any such history that would prevent legal ownership of a rearm. Be careful — it is a federal felony to knowingly transfer ownership of a rearm to someone whom you know cannot legally own one. ere is no federal law that prohibits a gi of a rearm to a relative or friend who lives in your home state. Pennsylvania does require a background check for private party transfer of a handgun. It might be best to check with a local rearms dealer to verify that all requirements are
properly met.
Consider giving a gift certificate from a local retailer rather than purchasing a gun and then transferring ownership. That way, the receiver of your gift can pick out exactly what they want regarding maker, model, stock style, caliber, and overall features. When they select what they want and complete Federal Form 4473 to initiate the background check, they can properly identify themselves as “the actual buyer of the firearm.”
In the case of gifting a firearm, such as an old family heirloom or a favorite deer rifle, to a family member, there may be laws requiring even intrafamily transfers to be completed through a licensed retailer so a background check can be conducted. Antique firearms — those made before 1898 — are generally exempt from any such requirements, but be sure to check with a local firearms retailer as to the proper procedure to follow.
Want a recommendation? Henry rifles are made right here in the USA. They have a nostalgic appearance, are highly prized by owners, are fun to shoot, and are readily available in
various models and calibers. Henry makes a high-quality product, and the company is very supportive of shooting sports. Everyone I have ever spoken with who owns one of the Henry rifles is very happy with the workmanship, accuracy, and the joy of shooting it. Here again, perhaps a gift certificate specifying a Henry rifle might be the wisest way to present the gift, allowing the recipient the final say on the exact specifications.
Looking for a “stocking-stuffer” to go along with that new firearm? A scope is usually a very welcome gift for the owner of a new rifle or even a handgun, and Leupold boasts a lifetime guarantee for its made-inthe-USA scopes. I have owned quite a few of their optics for many years and continue to be very satisfied with their clarity and rugged construction. Finally, ammunition for the weapon you might be gifting can always be placed under the Christmas tree
operation for windrowing snow.
I’m sure most hunters would agree that when it comes to deer hunting, the most exciting thing to see would be a giant trophy buck standing broadside forty yards away, and that’s especially exciting if that view is through your rifle scope.
Well, as we all know, that scenario doesn’t always happen; however, I have to say that if I’m not seeing the deer I’m after, it’s also very rewarding to be perched in my deer hunting stand and see other wildlife while waiting for that buck to come by.
It’s especially rewarding to catch a glimpse of something we don’t often see, like a bobcat sneaking cautiously through the woods or a fisher heading up a nearby tree.
I once had a bear walk up to the bottom of the tree that I was perched in; fortunately, it decided to head off in another direction.
It’s always very satisfying to see rare wildlife, even when we are not hunting. I remember a time when spotting a
Ken Hunter
bald eagle was pretty exciting and something you were quick to tell everybody about. Today, spotting a bald eagle is pretty common, at least if you are on the lookout and know what to look for. There is hardly a week that goes by that I don’t see a bald eagle somewhere in my daily travels. A couple of weeks ago, my wife and I were pulling out of the Sheetz parking lot in Muncy when we spotted two mature bald eagles perched in a sycamore tree right along Muncy Creek.
When it comes to spotting rarely seen wildlife, I’m pretty confident I can identify the furry critters, but I’m not nearly as confident about the feathered critters. There are a number of birds out there that I am not all that familiar with, and I have difficulty identifying them. Fortunately, I’ve got woodpeckers pretty well under control, and I recently spotted one that I seldom ever see — a Pileated Woodpecker.
The Pileated Woodpecker is our
largest woodpecker, at about the size of a crow. Pileated Woodpeckers are less o en seen than many of our other woodpeckers, but much of that is because they tend to live and hunt in the deep woods and are o en silent.
e Pileated Woodpecker is a yearround resident of Pennsylvania.
While primarily a forest bird, they appear to be adapting somewhat more to civilization, and they are showing up now even in the outskirts of some towns and large cities.
e Pileated Woodpecker is black with white neck stripes and a prominent red cap. Both the male and the female have a bright red crest, but the female’s forehead is black. Another interesting characteristic that may indicate its presence is that when digging in trees, it leaves large oval or oblong holes.
Since I’m a wildlife artist, when I recently saw that Pileated Woodpecker, I decided to do a small painting of it, and that’s what accompanies this article.
Well, here’s hoping you get to see that big buck come deer season, but keep your eye out for some of those other interesting and less obvious critters as well.

Howard’s Williamsport Roots
With the college and professional football seasons building to a championship crescendo and Christmas just around the corner, baseball has entered its ‘hot stove season.’ While the sport has taken a back seat for many, November was a busy time for Penn College baseball coach Chris Howard, who was inducted into the West Branch Valley Chapter of the Pennsylvania Sports Hall of Fame and was the featured speaker at the local SABR (Society for American Baseball Research) gathering.
Scott Lowery
the West Branch Valley Sports Hall of Fame was a thrill for me, and I was excited, happy, and proud I was able to get in.”
The Midwest native has been an adopted Williamsporter ever since.
“It is a huge honor, and I was really surprised when I was told about it,” Howard told Webb Weekly. Williamsport and this area mean so much to me. Williamsport has always been a part of my life. My Dad played here for the Williamsport Mets back in 1967. I was one year old, and the family had a film of me running around the outfield chasing baseballs. Then, twenty years later, I came back here to play for the Williamsport Bills.
“Eventually, I came back here and raised our family, and then became head baseball coach at Penn College. My entire life has revolved around Williamsport, so the recognition and honor to be selected to
“I grew up in Kansas, just outside of Kansas City, went to school in Oklahoma for three years, and then on to the University of Louisiana for a year. I played football and baseball, had the opportunity to play in the Major Leagues for a few years, then ended up marrying a local girl before laying down roots here. I’ve often said if there was anyone more destined to be in Williamsport, I think it probably is me. It seems like everything that has happened to me has had Williamsport in the background.
“I’m a baseball guy. There was nothing that interested me more than playing ball. When the Penn College job came open in 2007, it was really an opportunity I couldn’t pass up. As much as I enjoyed playing baseball, the most rewarding thing professionally that ever happened to me is becoming a coach. The chance to mentor young men has made more of an impact than anything I ever did on the baseball field as a player.
“The Penn College baseball program
has evolved so much since I got here. Back then, we weren’t an NCAA school and played in an organization called the USCAA, made up of colleges that, for one reason or another, chose not to belong to the NCAA. Not only for baseball, but it has been great to see how the entire Penn College athletic program has morphed into what it is now. To be a part of the athletic growth Penn College has achieved in the past 20 years is something I take great pride in being a part of.
“I hate to say it, but I think we are one of the best kept secrets in town in what we have here athletically. It has been good to have been on the ground level. Our programs are getting better and winning championships, and it is a testament to how hard everybody has worked here to achieve the results we are experiencing.
Howard expressed excitement on the eve of this spring’s opening of the Lumber Yards.
“The fact that we will have a turf facility next to us, a place we can call our own where we can actually practice, is very much appreciated. Bowman Field was fantastic for us, and, like I said before, it seems like half of my life has been spent there. But once MLB took it over, we were limited in its availability. It was a wonderful facility, beautiful, and a great experience for our players, but we were never really able to conduct business as we needed to as an NCAA program.
“The fact that the Lumber Yard is finally built, we have a place to call our own, a place to practice, a place to conduct our
business like a real baseball program, I think it is only going to help us. There is no way possible that we are not going to be a better baseball program thanks to this facility.
“I used to talk with other coaches explaining our situation, how we would practice on the soccer field, and conduct most of our batting practice inside in the cages. They would look at me like I had a tin head, asking how in the world we did that. We’ve been pretty successful over the years, but this is opening an exciting new chapter for Penn College baseball.”
Asked why high school baseball players should come to Penn College, Howard was quick to respond.
“Well, first and foremost, they are going to get a great education. The degrees students get here are going to enable them to walk out of here and have the ability to get a great job. That’s #1, but #2, they will have the opportunity to continue their baseball career at a school that really cares about their athletics and athletes. I tell people all the time, I promise you, when they look back at their time here, they are going to say they had a fantastic time.
“I want guys to come here, enjoy the time they have, love, playing the game; but I always tell our recruits if all you learn from me is how to be a better baseball player, then I failed you. I want them to learn so many things other than how they can become a better baseball player.”
Chris Howard, Penn College, and Williamsport have forged an impressive team.

Happy late Thanksgiving to the fine readers of the Webb Weekly. And special thanks to those who are fans of this page. I am truly humbled by your feedback and praise. I often receive several shouts in public. Strangers also recognize me from these columns. I gratuitously thank them with a fist bump. Cool.
Jamie Spencer
Before I begin this week’s recollection, I want to give some love to my friends. Props to the boss man, Jim, and my lovely editor, Steph, for allowing me to scribe. I am simply a part-time writer for the Webb Weekly, and these two folks allow me to improvise. Jim is the big brother I never had. I only hear from him when I do something great or something terribly bad. He has been a great mentor over the years, and I appreciate his friendship, encouragement, and trust. Although I only see Steph a few times a year, we correspond often. She is the brains. Steph routinely keeps me up to par and helps me with my speling. I did it on purpose!

copy and designed our weekly advertisements. I would update the folks on some of our tournaments and throw in a few stories about our charismatic members. I did this every week over ten great seasons. My pages were called “Notes from the Greenside Bunker” and “Coaches Corner.” My proud mother made a scrapbook of these early entries. I frequently look back and smile. Those were the days. This was the start of our relationship.
I have been with the Webb since its beginning. Jim pitched an idea while I was working at WDGC. I provided the
Jim and Steph will occasionally ask me to do a cover story. These are very special assignments on local sporting celebrities. Sometimes it’s a feature on a team or a youngster who claimed PIAA State gold. There’s a lot more pressure associated with these projects. I always do the best I can. One of my favorite pieces was on the legendary Coach Frank Girardi’s enshrinement to the College Football Hall of Fame. That little write-up won me an award. I’m not kidding. My friends give me the freedom to write on whatever. My weekly assignments vary, and sometimes I turn a few heads. I have covered just about everything with sports. Professional to amateur.

I have penciled many articles on local football and basketball. I also chimed in on high school wrestling and baseball. I even told a few tales on some throwers and pickleball, too. I thoroughly enjoy getting to know many of the young athletes and coaches in the area. It keeps me in the loop.
I do get to scribe about fishing and my love for the great outdoors. Spending time with my son Jensen has been a very popular topic. We are so blessed to live in the 570. Canoe trips with the Amish. Overnight backpacking trips. Backyard hikes. My chums sometimes take me on great adventures after I promise to give them a shout. There is never a dull moment. No fish species is safe. How many others watched the very first MLB Little League Classic from a kayak?
My three-week rant called “Setting the Record Str8” got me in trouble. I no longer push the envelope. Several folks applauded my perspective on the County’s decision to take over the golf course, but two guys got mad. My boy Alize Johnson has the most tallies. I believe there are nine articles on this extraordinary lad. I wrote about him while he was in high school and when he was with the Missouri State Bears. Alize became the first from the area to be drafted by the NBA. Headlines. He routinely gives back to the community, and his new basketball courts earned a full-page
spread. Alize continues to amaze. He is currently with the Minnesota Timberwolves.
My favorite subject is my family. Jensen is now 16. He continues to look like Mom, but he is starting to act more like his dad. Poor kid. Many articles I submit are about his sports. Basketball. Baseball. Soccer and XBOX. He just scored his license. Teach doesn’t like the spotlight, so I refrain from using her name. I love sharing our stories. Our trips to California or Yellowstone. The Badlands to the beach. They make some interesting tales. Especially when we get stranded in the airports.
My bearded friends are the best. They love seeing their names. I enjoy our interactions, and I will write a few Amish tales. You can’t make it up. Building a two-car garage and addition with my pops got the most cheers. Dead serious. The articles on our mishaps and lack of progress immediately went viral. Several still comment and ask questions. My brief encounter with a Musky under the Market Street Bridge has the most views. My articles are archived. “An Unbelievable Fishing Story” has 18,774 clicks.
Thanks again, folks. This guy is blessed. Appreciate the love and support. I enjoy my part-time gig with the Webb Weekly. Off to Lewistown this morning for a hoops scrimmage. Hope you had a Happy Thanksgiving. Cheers.
