SHC Military Banner Program

On this Memorial day weekend, the Sylvan Heritage Council invites you to take a walk or a drive around Emporium and view our military banners. This is just one of the many that memorializes a veteran who paid the ultimate price for his country. Take a look for the others and, when you find them, say a humble thank you. The banners stretch from the west to east end bridges and from Second to Sixth Streets. 
On this day and every day, Cameron County is military proud and strong!

In 2014 The Sylvan Heritage Council embarked upon a Military Banner Program, to honor men and women with ties to Cameron County, Pennsylvania who went on to serve their country in a branch of the armed forces. Four years later and 188 strong, these striking banners are a highly visible tribute to these dedicated individuals who bravely served (or continue to serve) our nation. 

 Emporium native Kent Riegel created the attached video to beautifully showcase Emporium's military banner program. A total of 188 banners grace the streets of Emporium with pride. We are so thankful for the huge amount of time and effort that went into making this for everyone to enjoy and share. 
Thank you Kent, truly. 
We are grateful.

CC Farmers Market Welcomes Josh & Lindsey Zucal

 

Cameron County Farmers Market

Today, we’re excited to shine the spotlight on another wonderful returning vendor couple at the Cameron County Farmers Market — Josh & Lindsey Zucal! 
Together, Josh and Lindsey bring a delicious combination of locally roasted coffee, homemade breakfast favorites, and warm community vibes to the market each week. 
With Bearded Brewing, Josh has been carefully roasting internationally sourced coffee beans since 2017, working with small-scale farmers from Colombia, Peru, Brazil, Mexico, Ethiopia, and Indonesia. 
Every small batch is freshly roasted by hand to highlight the unique flavors and character of each region. Stop by their booth to enjoy a freshly brewed cup of coffee while you shop, or pick up a bag of beans to enjoy at home.

Meanwhile, Lindsey is bringing back many of the favorites market-goers have come to know and love. While we certainly miss Natalie’s smiling face at the market, Lindsey has stepped in beautifully to keep the delicious homemade offerings coming with more exciting additions in the works as the market season progresses.

Her breakfast treats include: �• Nutritious homemade granola� • Deliciously creamy homemade yogurt� • Super addictive peanut butter balls • Farm fresh eggs ready for your morning omelette

Whether you’re looking for the perfect morning coffee, a healthy snack, or something delicious to brighten your weekend, Josh and Lindsey have you covered!

Be sure to stop by and say hello at our next market on Saturday. 30 May from 9am to 12pm at the Emporium Town Square for fresh local products, amazing vendors, live entertainment, great food, and wonderful community vibes!

James M. “Jim” Martin

James M. “Jim” Martin, 85, of Emporium, PA passed away unexpectedly at Penn Highlands DuBois on Thursday afternoon (May 21, 2026) following a medical procedure.

He was born August 28, 1940 in Nanty-Glo, PA, a son of the late James W. and Sylvia Grazier Martin. On November 23, 1963 in Erie, PA, he married the late Judith C. (Wood) Martin.

Jim was born again in July of 1954 and remained steadfast in his faith throughout his life.

Following graduation, Jim entered the United States Marine Corps where he proudly served his country for four years. He worked for many years as a machinist throughout western Pennsylvania and later retired from the Pennsylvania State Parks, where he enjoyed his last several working years.

Jim enjoyed spending time with his family and friends and especially cherished the time he spent with his children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren..

Jim is survived by seven children (two foster): son, James (Suzzanne) Martin and their children Katherine and Sarah Martin; son, Jody (Jennifer) Martin and their children Jeanette (Joshua) Rowley, Julia (Lucas) Morian, and Jaclyn Martin; son, Jeffrey Martin and his children Sean O'Donnell, Noah Martin, Isaac Martin, and Grace (Brent) Ewell; son, Jack (Lisa) Martin and their children Kayla (Kyle) Nielsen and Anna (Iolaus) Trowbridge; and son, Jay (Tara) Martin and their children Joseph Martin and Laurel (David) Rogers, son Leroy Sheetz (Shelly) and their children Kaitlyn Sheetz and Shyann Sheetz, daughter Bernice Baker and her children Jonathan Baker, Jordan (Megan) Baker and daughter Jessica (Jason) Venable as well as 24 great-grandchildren.

In addition to his parents and wife, he was preceded in death by two brothers, Walter and Jerry Martin, and two sisters, Eleanor Rose and Judy Long.

The family will receive friends at the Emporium Christian & Missionary Alliance church on Wednesday, May 27, 2026, from 11:00 AM to 11:50 AM, followed by a funeral service at 12:00 PM with Rev. Erik Ferguson, Pastor of the Christian and Missionary Alliance Church, officiating.
