Local standout Ed Gargula drained a double-breaking 40‑foot putt on hole 14 for the shot of the day, while several other teams split their weekly records.
   

• Shapiro Order Sets 60-Day Disaster Staffing Deadline (lowerbuckstimes.com) — Huntingdon County residents hit by July 5–6 flooding still have until Oct. 21 to apply for state disaster recovery grants, tied to their municipality’s disaster declaration. A new Shapiro order also creates a statewide “surge workforce” so Pennsylvania agencies can quickly shift staff, equipment, and contracts when disasters overwhelm local resources, potentially shaping future aid in our area.
