Tool City Rumble
The Tool City Tournament has a long tradition of boosting wrestlers to the next level. ​Over the course of two days, several wrestlers got a chance to test their meddle against some top opponents.

New Ad Feature
In collaboration with the Franklin Retail Association, we will begin having a "Feature Business of the Week."

​This is a paid advertisement by the association for its members and we're pleased to be able to help spread the word about the many offerings from businesses in Franklin. 

​We hope many members take advantage of this new opportunity.

The first "Business of the Week"  is Amy's Closet & Sassy's Gifts, which is having at Fill the Bag Sale. 

​This ad will appear in stories throughout the week. Look for it in the Tool City Wrestling Tournament  that involves many communities and has already been shared many times over on social media.

Titusville council looks back and then forward

During the first council meeting of the year, Titusville's manager Neil Fratus gave members a round-up of the many accomplishments made in 2022. The councilors then spoke about some of the things they would like prioritized in 2023. Click here for full story.
​ICYMI: Eight & 322 also looked back on 2022 with pictures and stories that had an impact on us.

It was quite a busy week for local sports
We spent the week covering all the major varsity winter sports.  Titusville boys and girls swim teams competed against Mercyhurst. We hit the road to catch Rocky Grove. Though the result wasn't what they wanted, they played hard and we were glad we went. Titusville girls also played hard this week but ran into a Sharon buzzsaw.

​​Franklin and Cochranton grappled at The Castle for a midweek dual meet (pictured above). 

​And we helped a friend with a look back at the top sports story in Crawford County in 2022.​

Nature of Things strolls by the river and through the now
Picture
Nature of Things columnist Anna Applegate put together a look at ice and flooding in Oil City after noting (and photographing) all the ice on the rivers last week.

She also got outside with her favorite walking companions for a trek in the snow and lots of photographs, especially of Sherman, her elder statesman Saint Barnard.
