Tours and tasting will be available at three area sugar shacks on 6 and 7 March 2021, from 10 AM until 5 PM. Visitors will be able to see how sap is collected from the trees and turned into maple syrup, as well as purchase various maple products directly from the producers.

This second annual maple weekend is hosted by the River Valleys Maple Syrup Producers Association (RVMSPA), an organization that falls under the umbrella of the Pennsylvania Maple Syrup Producers Council. Participating sugar shacks are:

Paddy Mountain Sugar Shack at 1385 Paddy Mountain Road, Millmont

Minehart Gap Maple at 30 Old Goss Lane, Lewistown

Shade Stone Farm at 282 Markley Lane, Beaver Springs

Visitors are encouraged to bring their children to this educational and tasty event. They are reminded to dress for the cold and possible snow or mud, as the activities are primarily outdoors. There are tours available inside each sugar shack to see the syrup being made, plus an optional trip into the sugar bush (or woods) to see the various sap collection methods. Each producer will have products for sale. There is no cost to attend the event.

Current CDC and state guidelines regarding COVID-19 will be in effect.

Susquehanna University has a slate of events planned to honor the life and legacy of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. during the week of Jan. 25.

Headlining the university’s annual Winter Convocation is LaTosha Brown, co-founder of the Black Voters Matter Fund, jazz singer, and fellow at Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government.

Brown will deliver her message, Who Will Save American Democracy? The Role of Women, Young Voters and People of Color in American Politics, at 7 p.m. Tuesday, Jan. 26. The event, which is free and open to the public, will be held virtually via Zoom: https://susqu.zoom.us/j/98577314960?pwd=cm1IMGtaNG5XcHFMTmZUbjRUL1J0Zz09.

Brown is an award-winning community organizer, philanthropic consultant, jazz singer and political strategist with over 20 years of experience working in the non-profit and philanthropy sectors on a wide variety of issues related to social justice, economic development, leadership development, wealth creation and civil rights.

As a native of Alabama, Brown has dedicated her life’s work to organizing resources and supporting the development of community-based institutions in the South, particularly in the Black Belt and Gulf Coast regions. She has also worked as a trainer, speaker and facilitator in the international arena. She is currently working with the Guyanese Black Women’s Roundtable to provide training and increase funding and investment opportunities for women-led institutions based in Guyana, South America.

Brown is the founder of Saving OurSelves Coalition, a community led disaster relief organization that helped hundreds of families in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina and the Southern Black Women Organizing Project that works to strengthen the network of Black women grassroots leaders in the South.

Additional activities during the week at Susquehanna include:

• An interfaith chapel service, Journeys to Justice, on Wednesday, Jan. 27, at 4:30 p.m., with the Rev. Scott Kershner, university chaplain, presiding. All are welcome.
• The Legacy of MLK – A Day of Teaching, on Thursday, Jan. 28. The daylong event features lectures and readings in topics across the humanities and sciences. Those interested in attending can register here.

For more information, contact Shamp at 570-473-1029 or Mostly Mutts at [email protected].

COVID-19 canceled many of Mostly Mutts’ major fundraisers in 2020, resulting in an estimated loss of $50,000, nearly a third of the shelter’s annual budget. The future of fundraising events in 2021 remains uncertain, but the cost of care continues for approximately 75 dogs and a dozen cats housed at the shelter.
