KIDS SAFETY EVENT

I will be hosting a Kids Safety Event on August 16 from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Citizens Hose Fire/Rescue/EMS on 965 Burtner Rd., Natrona Heights. There will be fun activities for children, safety tips for parents, and resources for families. Kids’ boxed lunches will be provided.

PA VETERANS IN NEED CAN APPLY FOR FINANCIAL HELP

Eligible Pennsylvania veterans and their families can take advantage of the Veterans Temporary Assistance (VTA) Program, which provides up to $1,600 per year for essential needs like rent, groceries, utility bills, and clothing during times of financial hardship.

Since its launch, the program—run by the PA Department of Military and Veterans Affairs (DMVA)—has awarded more than $7.4 million to more than 6,800 veterans and families across the state.

Eligible applicants include veterans with honorable or general discharges, those with service-connected disabilities, and surviving dependents of eligible veterans or service members who died in the line of duty.

To apply or learn more, visit www.dmva.pa.org or contact your local County Veterans Affairs office.

SECOND ROUND OF ANTERLESS LICENSE SALES OPENS MONDAY

Next Monday, July 28 marks the second round of antlerless license sales for both resident and nonresident hunters. Remaining antlerless licenses will be available on a first-come, first-served basis. One antlerless license can be purchased per round in the first three rounds.
