STARTING A FAMILY TREE?

STARTING A FAMILY TREE?

Genealogy Documentary!  The movie entitled  "Family Tree" will be shown Saturday  November 1, 2014 from 1-3 PM at the Chamber of Commerce at 34 East 4th street, Emporium, PA, sponsored by the Cameron County Historical Society
If you have ever wondered about genealogy and your roots this is the movie you need to see.

Benjamin Bratt narrates a feature-length done by the History Channel that combines the history and mystery of names with a genealogical search. Traveling from ancient China to medieval Europe, from Africa to the Wild West, in which they search through slavery, the Indian Wars, and the great wave of U.S. immigration. As actor William Baldwin and "Braveheart" screenwriter Randall Wallace trace their family trees, we learn the genealogist's tools and look to the future.

Can we move beyond written records to prehistoric times?
From the dawn of time to the epic sweep of the twentieth century, from the conflicts to the inventions that changed the world.  "Family Trees" captures the glory, tragedy, and drama of the human experience. 

"Family Tree" guides you through steps taken to look at the family history of different individuals. It also gives you information on how to go about getting information about your own family history.

Local genealogists from the Historical Society will be on hand to take questions on family searches immediately following the movie.  


Grab a grandparent, another family member or a friend and learn how to start your tree at the Chamber of Commerce in Emporium we are looking forward to seeing you Saturday November 1, 2014 1-3 PM

Christmas Parking Meter Boxes Available

Christmas Parking Meter Boxes Available

The hand painted boxes which covered the parking meters in downtown Emporium will not be used this Christmas season according to Cameron County Chamber of Commerce Executive Director, Tina Johns Solak. “The boxes were painted by students, residents of Guy and Mary Felt Manor, and families,” explained Johns Solak, “Unfortunately after three years of use, they have fallen into disrepair and will not be used.”

The painting on the boxes remain untouched and the chamber is offering them to the artists. If parents would like the boxes, or those that painted them would like them for a memento stop in the chamber during business hours, where the boxes are on display and can easily be identified. The boxes not claimed by November 10 will be destroyed.

“The chamber wants to thank everyone who worked on that project! It was very successful in bringing generations together,” explained Johns Solak.

Celebrate West Creek Rails to Trails

Celebrate West Creek Rails to Trails

The first phase of the West Creek Rails to Trails is complete.  The nearly 6 mile section stretches from the caboose at the eastern end of Emporium to the intersection of Moore Hill Road 

In conjunction of the Sinnemahone Ultra Marathon a ribbon cutting will take place Saturday October 18 at 3pm.  “Everyone is welcome to participate, wear your walking/running shoes, hop on a bike or ride your wheelchair on the newly finished surface,” says Cameron County Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Tina Johns Solak.

The red ribbon will be cut at the intersection of the trail and South Broad Street.  This area is the hub for the Sinnemahone 50k.  Legacy and Down County Country Boys will perform 11am-6pm.  Food and fall flea market vendors will line the Broad and Fourth Street areas. 

The West Creek Rails to Trails project has been ongoing since the rails were taken out out by the Allegheny & Eastern Railroad, a division of the Buffalo & Pittsburgh Railroad Company. 

Johns Solak says the trail is receiving heavy use.  “The credit for this project belongs to those that had the vision, the West Creek Rails to Trails Association, the St Marys Snowmobile Association and the contractors including Jeff Ream and Solveson Contracting.”


 The chamber is working with downtown Emporium businesses on unique opportunities for expansion due to the expected year round use of the trail.  Many of the businesses have purchased directional signs so travelers can find their establishments.  Those signs will be installed in the next few weeks.
