Looking for Groups to Utilize Stage in Emporium

A portable stage located this summer in downtown Emporium continues to sit empty. The owner of the vacant lot, Karl Gecci has allowed the stage to remain in its present location since Weekend in the Wilds. Cameron County Chamber of Commerce officials had hoped church groups, musicians, performers would take advantage and offer free events this summer.

The stage donated by the borough of Emporium can be pulled to different locations in the county. “It is hoped that organizers in Driftwood or Sinnemahoning will utilize the stage and host an event or two,” says Tina Solak, executive director of the chamber. The stage will remain available through the end of September when it will host entertainment for the All Fired Up Kickin Ash BBQ Contest.

Anyone wishing to utilize the stage for free is asked to contact the chamber office.
