  • FALL FOLIAGE REPORT October 1 – October 7, 2020
    Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources Bureau of Forestry PENNSYLVANIA WEEKLY FALL FOLIAGE REPORT October 1 – October 7, 2020 TIOGA CAMERON BRADFORD To predict peak season from the colors, use these guidelines: ➢ Dark Green/No Change= peak is three weeks to a month away ➢ Light Green/Starting to Change= peak is approximately two to three weeks away ➢ Yellow/Approaching Best Color= peak is approximately one week away ➢ Orange/Best Color= foliage is peaking this week ➢ Red/Starting to Fade= still some nice color but won’t last more than a few more days ➢ Brown/Past Peak= all or nearly all color is gone Statewide Fall Foliage Overview What a difference a week makes! Cold and frosty nights and very dry conditions have ushered in marked changes across the northern tier, where foliage is at its spectacular peak. Sugar and red maples are the stars of the show, contrasting beautifully with the still-green oak canopies. Another cold snap could jumpstart much of the Appalachian and Allegheny mountain regions, setting the table for back to back weeks of fantastic fall foliage viewing opportunities across wide swaths of the commonwealth. Northwestern Region The district manager in Cornplanter State Forest District (Warren, Erie counties) reports that cooler nights have spurred fall colors in northwest Pennsylvania. Many oaks are still quite green, but maples (sugar and red) are displaying brilliant colors. Aspen, hickory, and birch are continuing to color the landscape with warm yellow hues. Route 6 to Chapman State Park is a recommended fall foliage corridor in Warren County. Exciting fall color can be found at Chapman State Park.

  • CONNECTING to COLLECTIONS PENNSYLVANIA a Five-Year Preservation Plan for Pennsylvania PROJECT OVERVIEW
    CONNECTING TO COLLECTIONS PENNSYLVANIA a five-year preservation plan for Pennsylvania PROJECT OVERVIEW Imagining Our Future: Preserving Pennsylvania’s Collections, published in August 2009, includes an in-depth analysis of conditions and needs at Pennsylvania’s collecting institutions, a detailed preservation plan to improve collections care throughout the state, and a five-year implementation timetable (2010-2015). The analysis concludes that many of Pennsylvania’s most important historic holdings must be considered at risk. Millions of items comprise these collections, and the financial resources available to care for them are limited and shrinking. Pennsylvania is a state vibrant with world-class art museums, libraries, historic sites. Arts and culture play a substantial role in creating business, jobs, and bringing revenue into the state and stewardship of its artifacts is too important —to the state, to the people, to the history of country—to be ignored. This call to action is a rallying cry for all future generations of Pennsylvanians. With generous support from the Institute of Museum and Library Services, and in close partnership with three leading preservation organizations, the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission (PHMC), the Pennsylvania Federation of Museums and Historical Organizations (PFMHO), and LYRASIS, the Conservation Center for Arts & Historic Artifacts organized and led the assessment and planning process. The project was capably guided by a Task Force with representatives from the Office of (PA) Commonwealth Libraries, the Western Pennsylvania Museum Council, the Pennsylvania Caucus of the Mid- Atlantic Regional Archives Conference, Pennsylvania State University, the Philadelphia Area Consortium of Special Collections Libraries, the University of Pittsburgh, and Carnegie Mellon University.

  • AVP Brochure.Pdf
    THE AIRPORT The Wilkes-Barre/Scranton International Airport is owned and operated by the Counties of Lackawanna and Luzerne in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. The Airport is a jointly owned entity of Luzerne and Lackawanna counties controlled by six (6) Board Members: three from Lackawanna County and three from Luzerne County who preside as the Bi-County Airport Board. The airport is in Avoca, Pennsylvania, near the border of Luzerne County and Lackawanna County, midway between Wilkes-Barre and Scranton. It is the fifth largest airport in Pennsylvania measured by passenger boarding and is known as "your gateway to Northeastern Pennsylvania and the Pocono Mountains". AVP offers area travelers approximately 30 daily arrivals and departures to seven non-stop destinations, with one-stop service to hundreds of destinations worldwide. Air service is provided by the following airlines: Allegiant (Orlando-Sanford); Delta Connection (Atlanta and Detroit); United (Chicago-O'Hare and Newark); and US Airways Express (Charlotte and Philadelphia). Other significant operators include FBO Aviation Technologies, several car rental agencies, U.S. Customs and a life flight helicopter. New Terminal - The first passengers strolled into the Joseph M. McDade Terminal Building on May 25, 2006, and the Wilkes- Barre/Scranton International Airport stepped into a new era. The $41.5 million structure made of steel, stone and glass replaces the 47-year-old terminal next to it. At about 131,000 square feet, the Joseph M. McDade Terminal Building is about 70% larger than the old one, which opened in 1959, and was renovated in 1982 and 1991. The larger facility is designed to handle 360,000 or more departing passengers each year.
