For those not making all the connections here, the PEC was the initial driving force behind the birth of the annual paddling trip known as RiverFest in the Wyoming Valley.

On a personal note, my son just received the last of his grades from his spring semester, and the Williams kids have now extended their combined streak to 20 for 20 semesters on the dean's list.

Hoo-rah!
