Snow Day for CC School District


 Cameron County School District 

The beautiful winter wonderland we are experiencing necessitates the closure of the Cameron County School District for Thursday, December 17th. As a result, there will be no in-person or remote instruction. I encourage everyone to take the day to relax, wrap presents, build a snowman, watch a movie, or catch up on some much needed sleep. 2020 has been a year of stress like no other. To that end, I hope you can use this time to enjoy your family and focus on the upcoming holiday season. 
 Dr. Wolfe

Library Switching to Curbside Service

 

Given the recent spike in local COVID cases and the directives set forth by Governor Wolf, the Barbara Moscato Brown Memorial Library has decided to switch to pickup service with limited computer access by appointment beginning Wednesday, December 16, and ending on Friday, January 8. 
At that time, the Board and staff will reassess the situation to determine if curbside service needs to continue longer. All materials recently checked out will be automatically extended until after January 8, but patrons can still drop off books and DVDs in the outside dropbox at any time, or in the foyer during the library’s regular hours.

 Patrons will be able to continue to check out books through the library’s pick-up service either in the library foyer or they can bring the books out to your vehicles upon request. They will also offer Children’s Holiday Book Bundles for parents to check out. Just call or message the library, let staff know your children’s ages and request a holiday book bundle for them.

 Patrons needing to use the computer for job searches, legal or tax business, or the like will be able to access the computers by appointment only. Call the library to schedule an appointment with staff. Computer access will be limited to one hour at a time per patron.

 Patrons will also have access to ongoing fundraisers through the library foyer. 
There will be donation boxes labeled for the Friends of the Library Gift Basket Raffle and Holiday Book Gifting Program, along with instructions for both, accessible to patrons during the library’s regular hours.

 “The library board and staff appreciate your patience and cooperation during this time, and we hope to reopen our doors to our patrons as soon as possible.” Said Librarian Yelena Kisler. “We wish everyone a happy and safe holiday season.”

Support for Cameron County Businesses

 

Support for Cameron County Businesses 

Governor Tom Wolf and PA Department of Health latest mitigation efforts for Covid-19 has impacted restaurants, bars, organizational clubs, gyms and retail businesses. “These are the same businesses that have been struggling since March and usually rely on the next few weeks to put money in the cash register to get through the slow winter months of January-March,” says Cameron County Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Tina Solak. A visitor to the chamber Facebook page shared a bingo game created for Bradford restaurants and Solak took off creating a Cameron County version. 

The Bingo card not only includes restaurants, delis, and organizations, but retail businesses also that must limit their occupancy to 50%. The game runs over three weeks December 13 through January 4 which mimics the latest restrictions from Harrisburg. Each of those 3 weeks Bingo winners will be entered in a drawing to receive prizes donated by other businesses, organizations not effected by the latest Covid-19 measures. 

Each week the top prize is $100 in chamber bucks donated by The Cameron County Project. A second prize donated by C&N Bank is $50 in chamber bucks will be given each week. Rhonda Ramsey Hair Salon will give gift certificates to the winners week one and three, while a free state inspection from Reids Auto Sales and Service will be given to the top winner in week 2. 

Bingo cards will be posted each week on a special Facebook page created for the project. It is called Cameron County Business Bingo. Paper copies are also available at the chamber office.
