MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — The recent storms that took out power for nearly half of the Morgantown area have apparently led to representatives at Chestnut Ridge Park to cancel reservations scheduled for the upcoming weekend. “The two cabins that were damaged, we’re not going to be able to rent them out this weekend,” said Hoban. “We’re going to provide refunds to those who have booked them, and we do have a good bit of reservations this weekend, but we are hoping, as long as everything goes according to schedule, we won’t have to cancel any other reservations.” “The main thing is a lot of large trees are down and blocking roadways; they took down power lines; one of our cabins had a tree land directly on top of it, as I mentioned already; and another one had a tree land on the backside of it,” said Hoban. “With some damages that are yet to be fully assessed.” “They say it’s going to be a month or more before we can reopen Klaer, and we’ve got to see how much damage is done to the roof and get some windows replaced, and other things at least,” said Hoban. “For Pine Cabin, I’m not sure we’ll be able to reopen; it might be done for.” Chestnut Ridge Park intends to remain fully open despite the damage that took place during the strong Saturday storms. That includes continuing to operate the remaining five cabins and lodges that are regularly open during the spring and summer months. While refunds will be issued for both the Klaer Lodge and Pine Cabin for the duration of their closure, Hoban expects the rest of the park to recover and remain open for business. “We are waiting for some of the higher-ups in the facilities and maintenance department to get up here and help us assess the damage,” said Hoban. “They’ll probably bring an excavator up and some other big tools that can help us get some of this stuff out of the way.” Share on LinkedInShare on LinkedIn freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: "wajr_medrec_top" Pa (WJAC) — Two local high school sisters are taking the wrestling world by storm but on the national and international stage Undefeated and now headed overseas to represent Team USA In a sport traditionally dominated by boys Violette Lasure and Juliet Alt are proving that they are not just keeping up their bond is as strong as their takedowns is right behind her at Chestnut Ridge with an impressive 37-4 record Violette recently earned a spot on the U.S national team and will wrestle in the Pan-American championships with her eyes set on gold at the world championships in Greece this summer It means so much because I get to go out of the country and get to see other countries and it's just really awesome experience to wrestle other people,” Violette says Both girls found wrestling through their brother as her very first match was a national tournament where she placed second Juliet picked it up during the COVID shutdowns She says what began as boredom turned into a state title And Violette and Benton were always wrestling at home and practicing because there were no practices ‘well I got nothing better to do,’ so might as well try something new out,” Alt explained The sisters credit each other for pushing to be better saying the toughest part of competing at their level isn’t just the training it’s the mental preparation and the discipline to maintain weight and focus but eventually it got easier and the boys started to realize that we belonged in the room too and that we had a spot there,” Violette added While they’re fierce competitors on the mat Violette and Juliet are showing the world that girls not only belong in wrestling If you are the site owner (or you manage this site), please whitelist your IP or if you think this block is an error please open a support ticket and make sure to include the block details (displayed in the box below) so we can assist you in troubleshooting the issue The man whose body was found in the Chestnut Ridge Landfill in Heiskell on Dec 11 on the border of Anderson and Knox counties has been identified as Mark Denton The body was taken to the Knox County Forensic Center for identification and examination The forensic center found the death appeared accidental Denton was in a dumpster on the 3500 block of North Broadway for unknown reasons when a garbage truck picked up the dumpster and poured its contents into the truck Knoxville Police Department spokesman Scott Erland said Denton was crushed by the compactor on the garbage truck and taken to the Chestnut Ridge Landfill where his body was crushed again in a compactor Denton was listed as homeless, according to court documents The Anderson County Sheriff's Officer turned the investigation over to the Knoxville Police Department after discovering the man was from Knoxville The Erie County Parks System offers a variety of winter activities to enjoy!  This page is updated as conditions in our Parks change paths and other patron areas can be safely and consistently maintained some Winter Sports may remain "Closed" on this page temporarily until unsafe conditions pass For more detailed information on each Park's winter activities including hours of operation please select the individual park directly below.  Additionally, we are pleased to offer roped ice climbing at Eighteen Mile Creek Conservation Park BY PERMIT ONLY.  In addition to our traditional winter activities, the Erie County Federation of Snowmobile Clubs operates a network of snowmobile trails across Erie County. Some of those trails go through or near a number of our Parks and we specifically allow snowmobile trailer parking at Chestnut Ridge Park Snowmobiling is only permissible on the designated NYS trails after January 1st of each year Erie County Parks grooms cross-country ski trails in three parks: Elma Meadows Golf Course, Grover Cleveland Golf Course, and Sprague Brook Park.

unfortunately there were people waiting in line in front of us They say that pickleball is one of the fastest growing sports in the country and it's easy to see why.  It's easy to learn.  It's a good way to get a little exercise if you want to take it easy it can get your heart pumping.  It's started to get a reputation as an "old person" sport but that doesn't seem to be the case with just about everyone I've seen playing since I started.  Don't knock it until you've tried it I understand that you wouldn't want to line every court for pickleball because that could cause a problem for the people who come to play tennis.  But from what I saw last night pickleball seems to be your more popular sport right now.  You don't have to take the tennis courts away from them but by simply adding lines to a couple more of the courts you could make more choices available Gallery Credit: Brett Alan Chestnut Ridge Park is beautiful.

BG senior star Hamilton Gates scored five touchdowns — two rushing, two receiving and one on a fumble recovery and 55-yard return — and Chestnut Ridge turned the ball over five times, four on interceptions. Two of the turnovers directly produced BG touchdowns, while three others paved the way for three more scores in the game for the Marauders, who scored 27 points in the second quarter to build a 34-0 halftime lead. “I thought that we played a pretty complete game,” said BG coach Justin Wheeler, whose Marauders improved to 8-0. “Our offense moved the ball, our defense created turnovers, and our special teams units played well, except for a couple unsuccessful point-after-touchdown plays.” After Braden Reilly’s interception set up a 2-yard Gates touchdown run with 2:36 left in the first quarter, the Marauders blew the game open in the second quarter. Defensive end Jake Kissell read a pass by Chestnut Ridge starting quarterback Cale Harrison perfectly, picked it off at the Ridge 40 and ran untouched to the end zone 9 seconds into the second period to give BG a 14-0 advantage. “I thought that Jake’s pick-6 gave us a lot of energy and really kind of got us rolling,” Wheeler said. Kissell, a junior, was in the right place at the right time, and made a big play. “I was playing defensive end, I read their screen pass, the ball was thrown my way, and I took it to the house,” Jake Kissell said. “I’m glad that I could do it for my team.” Following that play, BG immediately executed an onside kick and senior Nick McCloskey recovered it at the Ridge 45, setting up a six-play Marauders’ scoring drive that was capped off by senior quarterback Chase Kissell’s perfect 20-yard scoring pass to Gates in the left corner of the end zone. On Ridge’s ensuing possession, Gates, playing defensive back, stripped a Ridge back of the football at the BG 45, and took the fumble recovery down the left side of the field for a touchdown with 7:28 left in the first half, giving the Marauders a 28-0 lead. “Their running back was running the ball, our whole team had him held up, and I stripped the ball loose,” Gates said. “Although we definitely have room for improvement, we’re clicking on all cylinders as a team right now, with the postseason approaching.” Ridge senior quarterback Cale Harrison left the game with an ankle injury while being tackled on the Lions’ next possession, and BG got the ball back and covered 51 yards, with Chase Kissell’s 25-yard pass to Gates setting up Gates’ 1-yard TD burst with 2:43 left in the first half. The Marauders kicked the mercy rule into play on Chase Kissell’s 11-yard touchdown pass to Gates in the third quarter, following an interception by Tyson Lestochi. Plays of the game: Two stood out, both on defense, and both in the second quarter, for BG. They were Jake Kissell’s interception return for a touchdown and Gates’ fumble recovery and touchdown run. Unsung heroes: BG’s first-team defense kept Ridge off the scoreboard and came up with five turnovers, all of which factored in touchdowns. Most vital statistics: Ridge turned the ball over five times while BG did not commit a single turnover. BG racked up 303 yards in total offense — 156 through the air and 147 on the ground — while limiting Ridge to a total of just 111 yards. Wheeler on Gates’ performance: “He gets (touchdowns) offensively and defensively. He’s a pretty special player.” Chestnut Ridge coach Max Shoemaker: “It’s kind of obvious what the storyline was tonight — with four picks and a fumble, and a minus-five turnover ratio, you’re not going to win any games. Hats off to BG. They’re an outstanding team with athletes that we couldn’t match up with — athletes that a lot of teams cannot match up with — and those athletes accounted for several big plays tonight.” Notable: Carolyn Maguda was crowned BG’s homecoming queen, while football player Isaac Yeskey was named BG’s homecoming king … Jake Kissell, backing up his brother Chase at quarterback in the fourth quarter, ran 8 yards for the Marauders’ final touchdown following a McCloskey interception … Ridge averted a shutout on Owen Claycomb’s 6-yard touchdown run with 6:31 left in the game against BG’s defensive reserves.

(WKBW) — After being lost for four hours in Orchard Park, the Erie County Sheriff's Office says deputies were able to rescue three hikers early Saturday morning. They first became aware that the hikers were lost at around 3:30 a.m. One hiker called and told dispatchers he only had 2% battery on his phone and the other two hikers did not have their phones. “The teamwork demonstrated by our dispatch and patrol units this morning was exemplary,” said Sheriff John Garcia. “With time a factor, they worked quickly, efficiently and diligently to assist these three individuals.” Deputies used RapidSOS to pinpoint the hikers' location based on cell towers. A crew was able to find them and escort them out of the area. We want to hear what’s going on in your community. Share your voice and hear from your neighbors.

After the Whistle’s Jennae Overton has more information about this growing sport. A Spring Valley man was convicted in the armed home invasion robbery of a marijuana dealer in Chestnut Ridge, during which a young man visiting the house was beaten, the U.S. Attorney's Office announced. A federal jury in U.S. District Court in White Plains on Wednesday found 34-year-old Thierry "Gutta" Antoine guilty of robbery, conspiracy and the use of a firearm in a violent crime following a five-day trial. According to a news release from the U.S. Attorney's Office, Antoine and five others went to the home of the marijuana dealer on Dec. 16, 2019, with a gun, a small bat and a knife. When they encountered a young man there who was visiting a friend, they beat, him, put a gun in his mouth so hard that it broke one of his teeth, and tied him up, before breaking in and stealing cash, marijuana, clothes and shoes. Antoine and Carlens Paul were indicted in the case last year. Paul pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit robbery in March and is awaiting sentencing, according to court records. Antoine faces a minimum of five years and a maximum of life in prison on the firearm charge.
