Throwback Thursday – The Narrows Road & Fishing Creek Gorge
Location: Narrows Road, southwest of Loganton
Distance: ~3 miles from the Borough

This week we’re traveling down one of Sugar Valley’s oldest and most dramatic historic routes — The Narrows Road, a winding passage carved between steep rock walls and the rushing waters of Fishing Creek. Long before modern highways, this narrow corridor served as a lifeline connecting Sugar Valley to the outside world.

The Narrows has been used since the mid‑1800s, when wagons, horseback riders, and early freight haulers navigated its tight bends to reach mills, markets, and neighboring towns. The road hugged Fishing Creek so closely that travelers often recalled hearing the water roaring beside them as they passed through the gorge.

The area wasn’t just a travel route — it was an early industrial zone. Along this stretch of Fishing Creek once stood:

Water‑powered sawmills

Grist mills

Blacksmith shops

C***r presses

Small homesteads tucked into the hillside

The Narrows was also a favorite spot for early families who fished, picnicked, and explored the dramatic rock formations that still tower over the road today. Landmarks like Humphreys Hole, a deep natural crevice in the cliffside, became local legends passed down through generations.

Even today, the Narrows remains one of the most scenic drives in the region — a place where you can still see the stone foundations of old mills, remnants of early industry, and the same rugged landscape that shaped Sugar Valley’s earliest settlers.

If your family has photos or memories of the Narrows — fishing trips, Sunday drives, or stories from the old mill days — we’d love to help preserve them.

🌿 Wellness Wednesday: A Midweek Mind Reset in the Valley

Midweek can feel heavy — the to dos pile up, the pace quickens, and the weekend still feels far away. Today’s reminder is simple: pause for a moment and reset.

Step outside and feel the crisp October air. Notice the color of the mountains. Take five slow breaths. Stretch your shoulders. Sip water. Let your mind settle for just a moment.

Wellness doesn’t require perfection or big changes. It grows from small choices made consistently — and today, that choice can be as simple as giving yourself one quiet minute.

Your wellbeing matters. And we’re cheering you on.

Tonight, Loganton Borough had the pleasure of hosting the Clinton County Boroughs Association Dinner — and what a night it was.
Our hall was filled with friends from municipalities across the county, all gathered for an evening of good food, good company, and a touch of October magic.

The Lock Haven Paranormal Seekers joined us as guest speakers, and they did not disappoint. Their stories from investigations throughout Clinton County brought chills, gasps, and plenty of wide‑eyed looks around the room. Perfect timing for spooky season.

From the warm camaraderie to the eerie tales to the incredible dinner cooked and served by our very own council, it was a night that captured everything we love about fall in Loganton — community, laughter, and just a little bit of goosebumps.

Thank you to everyone who attended and helped make the evening unforgettable.

Happy October, Loganton — stay spooky.

🎃👻 Introducing… Loganton’s First Ever BOO BASKET Challenge! 👻🎃

October is here, and we thought it would be fun to start a new Loganton tradition — something cozy, something kind, something that makes our little town feel even more magical.

It’s called a Boo Basket.

Here’s how it works:

🎃 Put together a small basket, bag, or box with fall goodies
🍬 Candy, cocoa mix, socks, candles, stickers — anything fun or cozy
👻 Add a note that says:
“You’ve been BOO’d! Now it’s your turn to BOO someone else!”
🏡 Leave it secretly on a neighbor’s porch
🎃 Watch the kindness spread through Loganton all month long

It’s simple.
It’s sweet.
It’s spooky‑cute.
And it’s the kind of small‑town magic we love.

Here is a video to give you some inspiration: https://youtube.com/shorts/zPfszwqhQmk?si=O2e1XqEkoNW9WPVb

If you get BOO’d, post a photo and tag us — we’d love to see the baskets making their way around town.

Let’s make October fun, festive, and full of neighborly love.
Ready… set… BOO! 👻🎃

Boo my neighbors & make boo baskets with me! ~ $20/bag👻 all under “...

📜 Town Tidbit Tuesday: What Lunchtime Looked Like in Early Loganton

Long before cafeterias and hot lunch programs, students in early Loganton packed their midday meals from home. Lunches were simple but meaningful — slices of bread wrapped in cloth, apples picked from backyard trees, a wedge of cheese, or leftover potatoes tucked into a tin pail.

During colder months, some families warmed food on the stove before sending children off to school, hoping it would stay warm until noon. Others packed small treats — a cookie, a piece of dried fruit, or a bit of homemade jam — tiny comforts in a long school day.

It’s a small detail from everyday life, but it paints a vivid picture of what childhood looked like in our valley generations ago. Simple. Practical. And full of care.

🇺🇸 COLUMBUS DAY / INDIGENOUS PEOPLES’ DAY — REFLECTION & RECOGNITION

Today, Loganton Borough pauses in reflection and appreciation.

On this day, we recognize the history that shaped our nation — both the journeys that led explorers to new shores and the enduring strength, culture, and contributions of Indigenous peoples who have called this land home for generations.

Columbus Day and Indigenous Peoples’ Day offer us an opportunity to learn, reflect, and honor the diverse stories woven into America’s past. As a community, we acknowledge the importance of understanding our shared history and respecting the voices that continue to enrich it.

We encourage residents to take a moment today to explore our nation’s heritage, appreciate the resilience of Indigenous communities, and reflect on the values that guide us forward — unity, respect, and a commitment to learning.

From all of us at Loganton Borough — We reflect. We recognize. We honor.

Municipal Monday: Fall Prep: Stormwater & Drainage

As leaves begin to fall, our Public Works team focuses on clearing drains, culverts, and ditches to prevent blockages and reduce the risk of flooding. Residents can help by keeping leaves and debris away from roadside drains near their homes. Small efforts like this make a big difference during heavy rain. Together, we can keep our stormwater system flowing smoothly.
