Anti-Bullying Program At Mt. View & Blue Ridge Parents and community members are invited to attend a life-changing presentation addressing school violence and bullying. Rachel Scott was the first person killed in the Columbine High School Tragedy on April 20, 1999. Her family created “Rachel’s Challenge” to help prevent this tragedy in other schools. On December 15, Rachel’s Challenge Program will be presented at Mountain View High School during the day in three presentations and training. Parents and community leaders will be able to take part in the evening program being held at 7:00 p.m. On December 16, Rachel’s Challenge will be presented at Blue Ridge School District for grades 6 through 12. Parents and community members will be invited to the morning presentation at 8:00 a.m. Not only will this bring about change in our schools but also our community. For more information call (570) 278-5038. Please help start a chain reaction of kindness and compassion in our schools that will connect with every area of our community.
Christmas Festival At St. Matthew’s St. Matthew’s Episcopal Church in Stevensville has announced its annual Christmas Festival of Nine Lessons and Carols which will be held on Saturday, December 11 at 3:00 p.m. The church is located on Route 706 in Stevensville. The Rev’d Paul Walker, Rector of St. Paul’s, will officiate at the service. Refreshments will be served following the program. Everyone is invited to bring boughs of holly and evergreens to decorate the church prior to the service. Because of the soft ground around the building, St. Matthew’s invites those attending to park at Frank and Mary’s Restaurant, just west of the church, and ride the wagon up to the church. Due to changing demographics, St. Matthew's has become essentially inactive as a parish. Seasonal services and special events, such as weddings, are held in the building; and, it is the site of many pilgrimages. Since the early 1930's the care and oversight of the church was given to St. Paul's, Montrose, which is seventeen miles east of the parish on Route 706.
Susquehanna County Treasurer, Cathy Benedict, announces that 2011 dog licenses and tags are currently available in the Treasurer's office. Failure to license a dog is a summary offense, and a maximum fine of $300 for each unlicensed dog may be issued. Dog licenses must be purchased by January 1 of each year for all dogs over 3 months old. Licenses are only good for the county in which the dog resides. To purchase a license fill out an application and be sure to sign it. Mail the information with a check or money order made payable to "County Treasurer" PO Box 218, Montrose, PA 18801-0218. For a county other than Susquehanna you may use this application and mail it to the proper county treasurer. You must be 65 to qualify for the senior citizen discount. You must have proof of a disability to qualify for a disability discount - as an SSDI card. In a combined effort with the Department of Agriculture, the Treasurer’s office again this year is mailing applications for 2011 dog licenses to residents of the county. If you receive one and don't have a dog, please pass it on to someone else. If you don't receive one in the mail, applications are available at www.susqco.com on the Treasurer's page or at the county courthouse in the Treasurer's office. Any questions, please call 278-4600 x130, 131 or 132.
