Wanted Jr. Board Member

Barbara Moscato Brown Memorial Library 

 The Barbara Moscato Brown Memorial Library Board of Trustees is looking to add a Junior Board Member to the team. 
 This opportunity is open to area youth between the ages of 13 and 15 with an interest in reading/supporting their local library. 

Those interested should submit a short (no more than 1 page) essay describing what the library has meant to you and how you think we could make it better, be sure to include your name and age. 

This is a great opportunity to advise the board on ideas and suggestions for programs, contests, and more. If selected, you will be invited to attend the board meetings (held every other month on Mondays). This is a great way to get involved with the library, earn some volunteer hours, and start to build experience for a resume or school applications.

Applicants must be in good standing with the library.

 This is a non-voting position. 
 If interested, please email librarian@barbaramoscatobrownlibrary.org or drop off your letter of interest at 27 W. 4th St. Emporium.

The interested individual must have an understanding of our community and its needs and be willing to commit their time and effort to a public cause by attending regularly scheduled board meetings, committee meetings, and planning sessions. Public participation benefits all of Cameron County.

If you are a Cameron County resident and able and willing to serve your community, please give your serious consideration to this request by emailing a letter of interest to the Barbara Moscato Brown Memorial Library Board of Trustees, Attention of Ms. Yelena Kisler, to librarian@barbaramoscatobrownlibrary.org by no later than Saturday, December 2, 2023. Letters of interest can also be dropped off in person at the library building at 27 West 4 th Street, Emporium. 

The Barbara Moscato Brown Memorial Library is a vital part of the educational and cultural structure of Cameron County and depends on public support for its continuing progress.

First Fork Festival at Sinnemahoning State Park is next Saturday October 14!

First Fork Festival at Sinnemahoning State Park is next Saturday October 14! 

Austin –Next weekend marks the return of the annual First Fork Festival at Sinnemahoning State Park! First Fork Festival celebrates the history and culture of the First Fork Sinnemahoning Valley, highlighting local authors, artists, craft makers and artisans.  Surrounded by glorious fall color at Sinnemahoning State Park, this event draws over 1000 visitors each year and it all goes down on Saturday October 14 th from 11:00 am-3:00 pm at the Wildlife Center grounds on Park Road.

Cash Only Shopping

Due to the parks lack of cellphone service and wireless internet First Fork Festival is a cash only event. The park does not have an ATM on site, so make sure you bring cash to support all of our local food and artisan vendors.

Shop Local Food and Artisan Vendors

First Fork Festival will feature food from Red Horse Grill, Phatt Grady’s Mobile Food Trailer, and Out of the Box Stellar Food. Additionally, the Sinnemahoning Ladies Auxiliary will be serving up soups and our local scouts from Troop 524G will have funnel cakes for sale. Finally, no fall festival is complete without God’s Country Kettle Corn & Son’s of Dunn Family Maple serving up snacks. We have almost 20 artisan venders offering variety of goods including but not limited to farm products, jewelry, pottery and even plants. This is great opportunity to get some of your holiday shopping done early while supporting our local artisans!

Live Entertainment and Exhibitors

Come celebrate Central Pennsylvania folk musician Jim Colbert as he highlights the stage with his Pennsylvania themed songs. Additionally local authors, historians, and exhibitors will be on site to educate festival goers.

Educational Activities for the Whole Family

Children, adults, and families can participate in several interactive educational activities staffed by local historians, conservation districts, and PA DCNR Educators. Learn about archeology, blacksmithing, watersheds, and even play historic games such as horseshoes.

We hope to see you & your family at Sinnemahoning State Park on Saturday October 14 th for this year’s First Fork Festival. If you have any questions about the festival, please call the park office at 814-647-8401 or email SinnemahoningSP@pa.gov
