Honesdale football falls to Valley View in District 2 quarterfinals

HONESDALE — A season that began with so much promise has come to a heartbreaking end for the Honesdale football team. On Friday, Nov. 6, the Hornets hosted Valley View in their first-ever District 2 home playoff game. But sadly for an overflow crowd at the Daniel J. O’Neill Sports Complex, the visiting Cougars simply had too many offensive weapons. Despite big plays from Gabe Duda, Abe Bryant, Jacob Ramos and Dontae Joseph, Honesdale suffered a 42-21 loss in the District 2 quarterfinals. Valley View scored in every quarter en route to the upset, thanks in large part to stellar performances from quarterback Colin Dempsey, wideout Cash Roe and running back Ben Evans.

In Pennsylvania, they frequented stores in Lebanon, Dauphin, York, Allegheny, Berks, Blair, Bucks, Centre, Chester, Columbia, Cumberland, Delaware, Lancaster, Monroe, Montgomery and Northampton counties “This out-of-state band of thieves knowingly passed fake bills with a plan to return items for real cash — that is organized retail theft, pure and simple,” AG Dave Sunday said in a statement. “We collaborated with federal, state and local partners to track this criminal activity and filed charges that will end this conduct.” Officials said the men targeted stores that included Kohl’s, Target, Home Depot, Lowe’s and other retailers for the alleged thefts.

As other insurers pull back, Geisinger Health Plan isn’t exiting any Medicare Advantage plans for 2027 and expects to grow, President Jeremy Gaskill says.

Bloomsburg Theatre Ensemble to premiere new ‘It’s A Wonderful Life’ adaptation

Bloomsburg, Pa. — Bloomsburg Theatre Ensemble will present a new adaption of "It's a Wonderful Life" for the annual holiday show at the Alvina Krause Theatre. Performances will run Nov. 27 through Dec. 27 at the downtown theater, 226 Center St., Bloomsburg. BTE Resident Artist Kimie Muroya wrote the adaptation of “The Greatest Gift” by Philip Van Doren Stern, which Frank Capra also adapted into a film in 1946. BTE Resident Artist Amy Rene Byrne will direct. Both promise a visually stunning adaptation that emphasizes the importance of community. “When George Bailey (BTE Resident Artist Aaron White) fears he’s lost it all, his guardian angel helps him reflect on all the good he’s done for his community,” Muroya said. She loved writing the ending, “where George’s community rallies around him at the end. The kindness he gave out comes back to him in spades.” She is also excited for people to see the starry effect used to represent guardian Clarence, played by returning guest artist Ethan Jovanovic, and his angelic cohort. BTE founding members Elizabeth Dowd and Rand Whipple return to the BTE stage as Mr. Gower/Mother/Mrs. Hatch/Ensemble and Father/Uncle Billy/Ensemble, respectively.
