This is not the time to deny your birthdays.  It’s a time for Renovo’s finest who were here in the best of times to come forward. Actually, the Renovo Borough Sesquicentennial Committee is looking for some of the oldest residents of the Renovo Borough.  The Committee would like to honor these residents at its Sesquicentennial Celebration.

If you or someone you know is 85 or older and lives  within the borough please submit their name and birth date to the Renovo Borough, 128 5th Street, Renovo by mail, in person or by email to RenovoBoro11@hotmail.com.

The Renovo Area Community Choir will hold its annual Spring concert on Sunday, May 1 at 3 p.m. at St. Joseph’s Catholic Church. This concert is for Renovo’s 150th Anniversary.

Mark your calendar …

Cruise for Cure registration …

Rich Wykoff tells us the web site is up for registration for the 6th Annual ATV Cruise for a Cure on June 11. The cruise starts at 9 a.m. at the Heritage Park in Renovo. The Bucktail Medical Center Relay For Life Team and the Central Mountains ATV Association team up to host the approximate 50-mile

ATV ride. The cruise benefits the American Cancer Society and increases in popularity each year so early registration is a good idea. For more information call 570-531-6127.

He’s still at it …

Rumor has it, Farwell resident Bud Hallberg,  is urging area residents to send emails to state legislators telling them to “come on guys, do your job,”  and forward state funding to Bucktail Medical Center.

The state is $400,000 behind in funding payments to the medical center according to Reeves, and the current budget tug-of-war between Democratic Governor Tom Wolfe and the Republican controlled state Legislature is uncalled for and unappreciated by the people who voted them into office.
