The Wacky Adventures Of Josh And Chad: Interview With Matt Silks

 For the first time in a while, I got to go hangout with a long time friend Matt Silks, better known as TRK. It has been quite a while since we have seen each other. To be fair, we are both pretty busy trying to get ourselves with him trying to get the HWF going and me building up my writing and stuff. But when we do get to hangout it is always fun.

Especially considering what we did today. Me and Chad got to meet with Matt over at the Heritage Volunteer Fire Company in Lewistown to do a special interview for the upcoming HWF show among many things.

To be honest I really enjoy doing those interviews with him, mainly because I really like trying to help promote things for the local community.

The HWF will be using the Heritage Fire Co building Saturday May 24th for their pro wrestling show where I will also be there to cover the event for Hometown Sports Magazine.

The big discussion that we had was making a difference in the community and help bring hope to people in our hometown of Lewistown. It is a reason why I wanted to write this blog, of course I am going to take about some of my personal issues and share it with all of you. But I also would love to help promote special events around the area as well. You know, to help bring us all closer together.

Knowing Matt for as long as I have, seeing what he has been through to where he is now, really does put a smile on my face. He along with the rest of the gang of the HWF have been really trying their best to help out in the community as well as our friends at Seven Mountains Wrestling.

Which brings me to this coming Saturday May 10th, the HWF along with many others will be appearing at Kid Connection over at REC Park where many of the wrestlers will be appearing along with several other vendors.

I would also like to thank the Heritage Volunteer Fire Company for letting us come into their building to do the interview and if you would like to become a Fire Fighter with them, you can visit them at their building on 218 South Main St, in Lewistown, PA or you can check them out on their Facebook page.

Take Care Matt! Thank you again for the interview. 

Until Next Time!

God Bless and Be Safe Everybody! 🙏🙏🙏

2009 Lewistown Panthers Baseball

 Well, with me trying to become more positive about myself, I have been looking back into the past and find ways to let go of some of the negative emotions attached to it. One such issue was going back to my time at Lewistown Area High School which as mentioned before was a huge struggle for me.  But again, trying to be more positive, I wanted to look back at that time and remember some of the good moments during that period. One of which was playing for the Lewistown Panthers baseball team. Heading into my senior year of high school, I wasn't in the best state of mind. Honestly, I really did not want to be there anymore, I was just so sick of life, never thought I was going to be anything. All I ever was going to be was a huge disappointment. I can only give credit to God for being able to get through that year. But then baseball tryouts came along and I decided to go for it again. The previous years I've tried only to fail, which in fairness, wasn't much of a surprise bec...

The Wacky Adventures Of Joshua and Chad: McVeytown Eagles Championship Parade!

Image
Well tonight was a pretty special night down here in McVeytown as Chad and I along with many other people who live here in McVeytown all came together to celebrate a special accomplishment. And that was how all three of the McVeytown Eagles teams made it to the CKYFL championship games. Winning in both the Peewee and Midget divisions and placing second in the Mighty Mights. Stuff like this doesn't happen often in such a small town where I live so to see these kids have the time of their lives during the parade was certainly a sight to see. One of the things I love about covering sports is when I see kids learn, work hard and turn it into success. And these kids were learning a lot throughout the season and watching them grow and not only become better football players, but better people as well.  Which is why I have really enjoyed covering the CKYFL these last few years for Hometown Sports. People like Travis McCullough who is the President of the league along with Adam Weaver, Rob...

The 2005 Lewistown Panthers Football Team!

Image
 I recently completed reading my story for Hometown Sports Magazine about the 2005 Lewistown Panthers football team who finally ended a thirty years of losing seasons. In this blog, I wanted to talk about why I wanted to write about this team and how I feel the lessons that were learned about them throughout the year can still be used today.  One of the biggest reasons as to why I wanted to write about this team was because of how much of team these guys were both on and off the field. These guys have played the game of football together for a number of years and it clearly showed. Plus being a youngster, I really didn't know the history of Lewistown Panthers football. I only remember going to games because I remember my cousins playing on the team. But talking about the football team in general, to put it nicely, there wasn't a lot of success. In fact when I started this journey of writing this story, I discovered that Lewistown didn't have a winning season for thirty year...
