Happy 75th Anniversary To Mid-Way Drive-In Theatre

 Today, if you would like to go out and enjoy some movies, then come on down to Mifflintown, Pa and celebrate the 75th anniversary to the Midway Drive-in.

The event will begin at 3:30 p.m. and will go on till 2:30 a.m. Adults will have to pay 15 dollars while ages three to eleven will have tickets for 10 dollars and ages two and under get in for free.

There will be several different activities including pony rides from 4 to 6 p.m., face painting, 1950 costume contest, a hula competition, there will be a DYI photo booth, a vintage car parade and live music starting from 4 to 7 by Jake & Friendz Trio.

To finish off the evening, three movies will be showcased. One of those movies will be Dog Man. The next movie is the classic Grease and then finally, Invasion of the Body Snatchers.

I think that this is really cool idea. It is not too often it seems that many of us go out and enjoy watching movies like we have in years past, especially when we would go out with friends and family which is sad to me.

Which is rich coming from a guy like me lol.

But in all seriousness, I really think it is important for us all to be able to come out and enjoy life together, now more than ever. Mainly because of how chaotic everything in the world right now, I mean with social media or just media in general, people have this warped idea of how things are and because of that people don't seem to want to go out and be around people anymore.

Plus it doesn't help that people can just simply watch movies through DVDs or get on these streaming services and watch things from the comforts of their home.

So I really hope and pray that Mid-Way has a successful night today and that I pray that all of you that decide to go out have a safe and wonderful evening.

Remember it all begins at 3:30 p.m.

Until Next Time!

God Bless and Be Safe Everybody! 🙏🙏🙏

2009 Lewistown Panthers Baseball

Image
 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...
