71-year-old woman charged with threatening neighbor at knifepoint
Susquehanna's smallmouth bass numbers rise, but agency still pushes for 'sick river' status
“The positive vibe on the river is that it’s better than it’s ever been,” says Mike Acord, co-owner of Susquehanna Fishing Tackle in Columbia.
“The fishermen were on board with the process. They’re worked hard to get the river back. We’ve got it back with the fishermen’s help and now we should be able to enjoy it.
“We’ll support what’s right and right now it deserves to be open. We all worked for it.”

Leaves leave the park - with a little help
Many, many leaves left Locust Street Park this morning, thanks to the efforts of the Columbia Park Rangers, the National Honor Society, the Lions Club, The Sunsnappers, the Boy Scouts, and Columbia Borough workers. Loads of leaves were raked into piles and then hauled on tarps to curbside, where they were picked up by a borough leaf collection vehicle.
Thanks to everyone for their hard work.
Santa rides in style, draws a crowd at the library
The elusive Mr. Claus made a pre-Christmas stop in Columbia on his way back to the North Pole this morning. Eschewing his trademark reindeer in favor of an entourage of fire trucks, Santa rode down Manor Street, across Fourth, up Locust, and over Sixth to the library. Lisa Greybill directed a crowd of faithful followers into the building, where the Claus listened to children's Christmas wishes. A splendid time was had by all!
The event was sponsored by Columbia QRS. Santa was portrayed by Bob Mimnall.
