A new Cresson exhibition connects daily walks with the patient work of making textile art.

The college describes roughly 50 pieces presented in three consecutive installments, with Parts II and III to follow through spring. Talbot combined walking and journal writing with his studio practice.

The sports component requires 36 credits alongside the other major’s requirements.

Ask about the second-major requirement, costs, aid and supervised experience. This is a new pathway to explore thoughtfully, with career possibilities treated as directions rather than guaranteed outcomes. Check current details before making plans.

The Pennsylvania Highlands Community College Foundation announced October 21 that its annual Chef Auction raised $36,000 for the Supporting Scholars Fund and future culinary arts scholarships. Held at the Frank J. Pasquerilla Conference Center, it was the Foundation’s fourth year hosting the event; those auctions have raised more than $185,000 since 2023. College fundraiser report.

The 2026 Pennsylvania governor's race has come to Cambria County, with both candidates making targeted appeals to a region hungry for real change.

Republican Stacey Garrity, the state's current Treasurer, rallied supporters in State College, centering her campaign on a six-point affordability plan targeting property taxes, utility costs, and expanded natural gas production.

She also took a firm stance on data centers, insisting new facilities must supply their own energy and water without straining local infrastructure — a position that's landed well in smaller communities.

Governor Josh Shapiro brought his reelection tour to the historic Johnstown Train Station, touting concrete regional wins: a new advanced manufacturing facility, the end of Johnstown's long-running Act 47 distressed status, and a welding apprenticeship grant for Admiral Peary AVTS.

Shapiro leads in recent polling, but Garrity is banking on economic anxiety to close the gap before November 3rd.

For Cambria County drivers facing another Pennsylvania winter, year-end car discounts may be tempting, but the best deal is the one that fits both the road and the budget.

Shoppers in Johnstown, Ebensburg and Cresson may find room to negotiate on leftover 2025 models as dealers make space for newer vehicles, though selection and incentives vary.

Compare similar vehicles at several dealerships and request written, itemized out-the-door prices that include taxes, fees and optional products.

Check whether rebates require dealer financing or apply only to certain trims, and question charges for extras you did not request.

Bank or credit union preapproval can help you compare interest rates, loan terms and total repayment costs rather than focusing on monthly payments.

Consider used vehicles, too, but arrange an independent inspection; for an electric car, verify battery coverage and whether charging fits your routine.

Above all, choose a vehicle suited to local commutes and winter roads, and be ready to walk away if the numbers change.

For Cambria County farmers, rising agricultural diesel prices make essential fieldwork more expensive, even when planting and harvesting cannot wait.

Tractors, combines, loaders and trucks all need fuel, and their costs often come due before growers know what their crops will earn.

Good weather can create a narrow window for long days in the field, leaving little chance to wait for lower prices.

The squeeze extends beyond the pump: higher transportation costs can affect deliveries of seed, fertilizer and feed, as well as trips to market.

Farmers can maintain equipment and plan work carefully, but they cannot eliminate the diesel needed to finish the job.

As fuel bills compete with repairs, labor and insurance, some farms may delay equipment purchases or other investments.

That pressure reaches businesses and customers around Ebensburg, Johnstown and rural Cambria County, where farm costs can influence the availability and price of local food.

A comfortable Cambria Halloween begins with your municipality's own announcement. Do not assume a market event or neighboring town's schedule establishes the hours for your street.

Keep each outing separate on the calendar. Agree on the walking group, the supervising adult, a compact route and the finishing time before children head out. Save a recognizable meeting point and a pickup plan.

Try costumes with the shoes and outer layers children will actually wear.

Safe Kids Worldwide recommends reflective details, lights, properly fitting outfits and adult accompaniment for children younger than 12. Drivers should slow down and watch carefully for pedestrians, following National Highway Traffic Safety Administration guidance. Keep phones away during crossings and allow time for a calm trip home.

At home, give collected treats an adult review.

The Food and Drug Administration recommends a snack or meal before trick-or-treating, checking wrappers and allergy labels afterward, and removing items unsuitable for younger children. Our guide brings these steps into a practical family plan, along with suggestions for comfortable pickups and welcoming visitors at your door. Let tired children finish early and keep the focus on a pleasant evening together. Official safety resources and the local announcement are linked for easy reference.

For Cambria County households that heat with oil, a winter delivery can bring a substantial bill all at once.

Families in Johnstown, Ebensburg and nearby communities may feel the strain when a tank needs filling more than once.

A national projection suggests oil-heated households could spend nearly $900 more over a winter than they did the year before, though individual bills will vary.

Delivery prices, fuel use, cold weather and a home’s insulation all affect the final cost.

For families living paycheck to paycheck, the timing of a fill-up can be as difficult as the winter total.

Residents can compare local delivery quotes, check tank levels and ask suppliers about payment plans or smaller deliveries before ordering.

Sealing air leaks and adjusting thermostats may help reduce oil use.

Households struggling to pay should also check their eligibility for Pennsylvania’s home heating assistance program before the tank runs low.

Cambria County residents taking chlorthalidone should check their prescription bottles after a recall of a specific lot of the blood pressure medication.

Inventia Healthcare Limited recalled more than 13,000 bottles of 25-milligram tablets packaged in quantities of 100.

The affected lot is RISA24002, with an April 2027 expiration date and product code 64980-599-01.

The September recall followed a separate recall of certain lots in June; it does not affect every chlorthalidone prescription.

The tablets failed to meet dissolution specifications, raising concern that the body may absorb less medication and blood pressure control could weaken.

The FDA classified the recall as Class II, meaning serious harm is unlikely, though temporary or reversible health problems are possible.

Do not stop treatment or change your dose without speaking to your pharmacist or prescriber.

If your label lacks a lot number, ask your pharmacist to check the original packaging.

Children in Johnstown’s Old Conemaugh neighborhood have a more welcoming place to play after a long-neglected basketball court received new life.

Brent and Derek Labarko, whose family has lived in the area for four generations, helped clear overgrowth, replace rusty hoops and paint fresh court lines with support from a $10,000 grant from Johnstown’s Neighborhood Opportunity Fund.

The brothers remember having outdoor places to gather when they were young and want local children to have the same opportunity.

They have already seen more young people using the court, making the work feel worthwhile.

More could be on the way: the family hopes to add a nearby playground for children of different ages, though that project remains a goal rather than a completed improvement.

For now, the restored court gives neighbors a place to meet and children room to play close to home.

Federal Reserve policy is profoundly impacting life in Cambria County, Pennsylvania.

Persistent inflation concerns nationwide are becoming increasingly evident in the local economy.

Recent statements from central bank officials indicate that ongoing efforts to rein in inflation may pose significant challenges for working families and small businesses around Johnstown and throughout the county.

Soaring interest rates have already made buying homes and financing business growth more expensive.

With local business owners debating whether pricing pressures will harm spending or foster stability, Cambria County faces a future tied closely to Federal Reserve decisions.
