Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated as I would rather support a local business than purchase straight from the company.

In light of the storms, I’m sure a lot of people are going to be needing company recommendations for tree/debris removal, fencing repair/replacement, or other home or structure repairs, so I figured maybe we can get a thread going to make it easy for people to find companies to do these things.

They don’t have to be licensed/authorized/certified/whatever to do work in the city (as the need will be beyond just the city), but might be good to clarify if you know if they can/can’t do work in the city so those of us in the city know where to focus our time/efforts on contacting people.

I drove around my neighborhood in Mt Joy, today,July 4, and about 10% of the houses had Old Glory on display.

If you did not have a flag out, why not?

My husband got a great job offer in the Mechanicsburg area, and it is a no brainer for us to move. We currently live in Lehigh Valley (Bethlehem-Nazareth Area) and like it a lot. I can easily transfer offices from my job. We have a little one on the way, and was wondering how is it the same/different is terms of traffic/diversity/warehouses/schools/things to do etc.

Someone created a change.org petition if anyone feels strongly about this and would like to sign.

One thing we all can agree on....hurting children should get you one thing. Lately my algorithm is inundated with these videos after following a local predator hunter. Anyone guilty deserves the maximum punishment but im just not understanding how some of these groups avoid charges for physically assaulting these alleged perps. Say what you will but in the USA we are innocent until proven guilty. The next observation is most of these again alleged pedos are as soggy as a wet paper bag...and others "the malls open but nobody's shopping." Wirh some of the vidoes I've seen its no wonder the DA wont get involved but at the same time its hurting the pedo hunters groups trying to do it right and work alongside local PD and DA.

Hear ye hear ye, ’tis one week ’til the Allegheny Independent Media 501(c)3 launch party at Studio 404 on July 8 at 7pm at 404 Messenger St in the Hornerstown section in Johnstown.

Hi all!

My husband and I are thinking about a potential move to the Mechanicsburg area. We would like to live within the Cumberland school district as we have an almost 4 year old and 1 year old.

We would be moving from Chester county in West Chester.

I’m looking for any and all advice! We’ve lived in West Chester for 5 years now and while there is a small sense of community, we feel like that’s really lacking. My husband grew up further up in Central PA and misses the green space. We want that for our kids.

The one thing I’m worried about is that my daughter loves her preschool here. We’d probably be moving mid school year (likely early spring I think?) and I’d love to get her into a preschool mid year or at least have some summer camps lined up for her. Is the entering a preschool mid year thing even possible?

The other big thing on my mind is just find babysitters in general. Right now we live near West Chester University and there’s a Facebook group for finding childcare/babysitters. Is this also a thing there? My husband and I both work from home but obviously need childcare throughout the day.

Sorry for the mashup of questions but really just trying to get a sense of things at this point! Thanks for any and all advice and insight!!

i am a coffee lover and love trying new local coffee places. always looking for new places in the central pa area/for places close by. also looking for places that have those rounded plastic cups!

Hi everyone! We just moved to the area and we also have a 9mo daughter so naturally we have been doing a lot of takeout. Where are your favorite places for takeout? We are open to all types of food!

Thanks in advance!

*not sure if this is allowed, sorry if not!*

hi! i’ve been wanting to start a pop girl group but i’ve always struggled because i can never find the girls lol. are there any women in here who are interested? i’m looking for 4 black women who live in central PA, from ages 22-27. my girl group inspo is like girlicious, blaque, blackpink, danity kane, pussycat dolls, etc.

For those of us who need a continued boost in these (insert adjective of your choice, here) times, here’s a catchy little tune from someone actually making even me give (some) country music a chance. Who knew?!?

Enjoy! ❤️‍🩹🤍💙
