Today's riddle: What do you call a belt that is made of watches? 🤔 (Answer below!)
1. Roseville celebrates 150 years, plans for future (tiogapublishing.com) — Roseville neighbors just packed a rainy-day chicken barbecue to kickstart major upgrades to the borough Green and historic bandstand, plus a new veterans memorial. Organizers are now seeking grants with help from Develop Tioga and the Mansfield Foundation, and they'll be selling memorial pavers so local families can honor those who served while supporting the project's next phase.
2. Affordable pet vaccine and microchip clinic coming to Tioga County PA this weekend (weny.com) — Pet owners in Tioga County can get low-cost rabies and distemper vaccines plus microchips for their dogs and cats this Saturday at the county fairgrounds near Whitneyville. Hosted by Second Chance Animal Sanctuaries, the walk-in clinic accepts cash or checks, requires leashes or carriers, and uses proceeds to help abandoned and at-risk local animals.
3. Pine Creek Rail Trail named Pennsylvania's 2026 Trail of the Year (lockhaven.com) — Tioga County's Pine Creek Rail Trail has been named Pennsylvania's 2026 Trail of the Year, spotlighting a 65‑mile route that now links directly into downtown Wellsboro. State and local partners recently finished the Marsh Creek Greenway extension, adding a new trailhead, visitor amenities, and a safer connector that's expected to boost outdoor recreation and tourism across the county.
4. Boom counsel waives preliminary hearing, case proceeds to Court of Common Pleas (tiogapublishing.com) — A Tioga County homicide case involving Wellsboro resident Kenneth Jerome Boom is moving directly to the Court of Common Pleas after his attorneys waived a preliminary hearing in a packed courthouse.
