Safe Drinking Water Clinic
Sinnemahoning Watershed Association
Protecting groundwater within the Sinnemahoning Watershed is as important to the watershed's health as protecting its surface water, and Penn State Extension will be hosting a safe drinking water clinic in Cameron County on October 14th at the CCOYA Environmental Education Center, Cameron County Fairgrounds.
This event is FREE, covers groundwater basics, ways to protect your water source, and even testing of your water!
Make sure you register at the link so they can bring enough supplies and follow the instructions for what you will need to do before the event, including getting an unused 12 or 16 oz bottle for sample collection. This event is being offered at no charge thanks to the Master Well Owner Network grant from the PA Department of Environmental Protection.

Russell H. Kantner
Russell H. Kantner, 63, of Emporium, PA, passed away at his residence on Friday morning, August 21, 2026, following a lengthy illness with a glioblastoma.
He was born June 17, 1963, in St. Marys, PA, a son of the late Donald and Marie Bellis Kantner.
Russ graduated from Cameron County High School with the Class of 1981. He continued his education at Penn State University, where he wrote for the student newspaper, The Daily Collegian, and earned a bachelor's degree in English, with focus on Creative Writing.
Russ had a special passion for rescuing cats and was a skilled and avid disc golfer who enjoyed playing competitively. He also had a love of travel and extensively explored the Southwest and Northwest United States, as well as Canada and Alaska. Russ appreciated the beauty and adventure he found in the places he visited and created many lasting memories along the way. He lived in Philadelphia for several years, and was an avid football fan of the Philadelphia Eagles, but even more so of the Nittany Lions and Buffalo Bills. He also had an amazing memory for dialogue in movies and TV shows, able to recite precise lines just before the character on screen was about to say them.
He is survived by his brother, Robert Kantner, Emporium; and two nieces, Heather and Rebecca.
In addition to his parents, Donald and Marie Bellis Kantner, he was preceded in death by a brother, James Kantner.
There will be no visitation. A private service will be held at the convenience of the family.
Memorial contributions may be made to the Cameron County SPCA, 678 South Mountain Rd., Emporium, PA 15834.
Online Condolences may be placed at www.BarnettFuneralHome.net

PennDOT Cameron County Maintenance Work Schedule for the Week of August 24
PennDOT Cameron County Maintenance Work Schedule for the Week of August 24
Clearfield, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced the following schedule of maintenance activities in Cameron County the week of August 24. PennDOT performs year-round maintenance in its mission to provide a safe, efficient transportation system, and the scope of work in Cameron County for the coming week is as follows:
Patching
All of Route 2001 (Wykoff Run Road). Monday, August 24, through Friday, August 28. Flaggers in the roadway will provide traffic control during daylight hours. Flaggers in the roadway will provide traffic control during daylight hours and may deploy a pilot vehicle. When encountering a pilot vehicle with a “Pilot Car Follow Me” sign mounted on the rear and a revolving yellow light, drivers must remain behind it until it has left the roadway. Do not pass.
Most permanent pothole patching is completed in spring or summer when temperatures stay consistently above freezing. Manual patching consists of filling potholes with warm mix asphalt using a shovel. It is then leveled and compacted. Mechanized patching consists of milling paving notches, cleaning the surface, applying tack to all edges to act as a glue. A paver then places warm mix into the milled paving notches, and a roller compacts the material. If patching was not performed, the damaged road surface would deteriorate further, and PennDOT would need to completely rebuild the road or perform more costly corrective measures.
This schedule is subject to change due to weather conditions, emergencies, or other unforeseen interruptions.
