Artist Classes Return to Chamber of Commerce
Since Covid-19 classes at the Cameron County Chamber of Commerce and Artisan Center have been kept to a minimum, but that is changing according to executive director Tina Solak. “2022 was kicked off by Alcohol Drug Abuse Services hosting a blanket making class for children and Meera Smoker hosting a senior project paint class.”
On February 12 ADAS will again welcome a photographer to take pictures of children who will then make a frame. March 26 Bonnie Troemel from Mountain View Sheep Farm will teach needle felting.
“The chamber is excited to provide a space for artists to teach and share their unique talents,” Solak continued. The needle felting class is limited to 15 students. Participants are to bring a four-inch egg shaped cookie cutter. A felting needle and all other supplies will be provided.
The cost is $20 and the class is open to all ages. Students will learn basic felting and adding stripes, zig zags and polka dots. Registration is available online on Facebook and Eventbrite or by calling or stopping at the chamber office.
Artists wishing to teach classes are encouraged to contact the chamber to secure a date.

Cameron County’s Brown May Have Set D9 Boys Record in Win at Galeton, Pa.
Cameron County’s Brown Explodes for 60; May Have Set D9 Boys Record in Win at Galeton, Pa.
Cameron County’s Hayden Brown scored what could very well be a District 9 record 60 points in the Red Raiders 85-41 win at Galeton in NTL play.
“I was honestly shocked,” Brown said. “A good friend of mine came over and told our coach as we were shooting free throws that I was at 56, and I had the potential to get the (school record). I thought to myself, that is honestly crazy.”
Brown got off to a great start scoring 16 first-quarter points to help the Red Raiders to a 22-7 lead at the end of eight minutes.
“I was told I started the game with the first 14 or 16 points,” Brown said. “At that point, I thought ‘good start’. But, I have had games like that before and it kind of fizzled out.”
He then added seven more points in the second half o give him 23 at halftime.
That was just a prelude to a massive second half that saw Brown double his point total by scoring 23 third-quarter to give him 46 on the night. He then added 14 more in the fourth quarter while going 8 of 8 from the free-throw line in the frame.
“Coming into the third quarter, about halfway through, I realized I was really starting to score,” Brown said. “I thought for sure I would just start missing shots.”
The 60 points topped the previous Cameron County record of 56 scored in 1999 by Shane Goss.
