Any vehicle remaining in a lot means it takes more time to remove snow and that the snow cannot be removed properly. Once again the Agricultural Arena on the University Park campus will be the site of a holiday tree display that, this year, will include 100 decorated trees. From Dec. 11-15, visitors can view the trees decorated by local businesses, families, groups and schools from within the community. Open from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. daily, the five-day event will also feature entertainment at various times of the day, a craft sale and show, and a holiday tree sale. There is no admission charge, but donations are welcome.
Visitors also can vote on their favorite tree.
Proceeds from this event, sponsored by the Centre County Convention and Visitors Bureau and the Penn State Forestry Society, go to Centre County United Way. It airs on Thursday, Dec. 18, at 7 p.m. Joining Spanier in a discussion of such topics as academic standards for athletes, gender equity and the commercialization of college sports will be Jim Delany , commissioner of athletics for the Big Ten Conference, and Tim Curley , director of athletics at Penn State. A study designed to help people with this problem currently is being conducted. Subjects also will be asked to compete various questionnaires during and after treatment. A brief telephone interview will help with a preliminary determination of the suitability of this treatment for you.
