Accident LawyersLycoming
County, Pennsylvania, known
as the birthplace of the All-American tradition of Little
League, is an area of unique natural beauty and classic national
charm. The meandering Susquehanna
River bisects the County, while the haunting Appalachian
Mountains surround it. Much of the region is fertile
farmland scattered through vibrant green forests. Quaint small
towns rich in local history stand next to a progressive modern city of
top-notch technology and culture.
The 2000 Census counted Lycoming County's
population at just over 120,000, spread through an area covering over 1200
square miles. Eleven towns and boroughs are incorporated into the County,
as well as the lively city of Williamsport,
the county seat and commercial hub of the region. Residents enjoy
mild summer temperatures ranging in the mid 70's to mid 80's and 40 inches
of average annual rainfall, keeping the County lush and green.
Winter temperatures average low to mid 30's with
average snowfall of 51 inches, a skiers delight.
The charming small towns of Lycoming
County offer many unexpected delights. The borough of Hughesville
is the scene of the annual Billtown
Blues Festival as well as the Lycoming
County Fair. Benjamin Franklin charted the town of Muncy.
It once served as a stop on the Underground
Railroad, and today antique shows and exhibits are held here, as well
as the Muncy Strawberry Festival. The king of all festivals though,
must be proclaimed the Williamsport Mardi
Gras. Emulating the traditions held in New Orleans and other
southern cities since 1699, this spectacular Pennsylvania
party will be in its 9th year in 2005.
Williamsport comes alive with arts and
entertainment in this mostly rural County. Boasting their own Symphony
Orchestra as well as a Civic Ballet, Williamsport also offers Broadway
musicals and such fine performers as Bill Cosby, Barry Manilow and David
Copperfield, appearing at the exquisite Community
Arts Center. Lovingly restored, this 1928 building is today
considered the 'Jewel of Downtown Williamsport' and seats 2,000 patrons.
The Little
League Museum is found here and the World Series of Little League is
played in the Lamade
Stadium in South Williamsport.
Dining choices come in many flavors
throughout Lycoming County. From the award-winning Bullfrog
Brewery and historic taverns and pubs, to the finest gourmet cuisine
available, Lycoming County is noted for excellent dining.
Perhaps the greatest treasure of Lycoming
County remains its natural heritage. The Tiadaghton State Forest covers 215,000 acres of the northern portion
of the region. Birdwatchers flock to this pristine wilderness, as do
hikers and cyclists using the many miles of trails. The Ravensburg
State Park climbs through a steeply walled gorge full of phenomenal
rock formations. Five tributaries of the Susquehanna River cut
through Lycoming County, offering excellent fly-fishing. Over two
million acres of land in north central Pennsylvania are set aside for game
land, providing hunting for bear, deer, small game and foul. The
entire County is a haven for cross-country skiers and snowmobiling, while
downhill ski resorts lie 45 minutes away.
Lycoming County, Pennsylvania holds the
best of the American dream. From Little League and community values,
prosperity as well as fun, to the deep hush of our precious forests,
Lycoming County preserves it all for us.
