- Sahli Nature Park: Beaver County’s Secret Garden Nestled behind Chippewa’s bustling shopping centers lies a Beaver County treasure: a 90-acre plot of land generously donated in 2010 to the community to be preserved as pristine forest. If you’re looking for a place to spend the day outdoors, this gem is worth the visit! It’s by far my favorite place to get in […]
- Best French Fries: #8 – Z-Pub & Diner This is one where I have to be honest. For some reason, Z-Pub has just never been on my regular list of places to grab a bite to eat. I’m not sure I had ever been there before Corey started talking about the best burgers in Beaver County and it came up. On my first trip […]
- The Angled Kitchen House: 104 Watson Trail, Chippewa When I first received the request to profile this house at 104 Watson Trail Road in Chippewa, I had to pull up a Google map to figure out exactly where it was located.

- Madam Mozzell: Opening a Beauty Salon in Beaver County I’ve always been fascinated with the stories of people who leave the safety and security of their corporate jobs in order to pursue the dream of owning their own business.

- The Second Annual MAC Safety Bowl About a month ago I received a message from a guy named Kevin Miranda saying that he would like to promote an event that would help to shed a positive light on the gas and oil industry. Because I feel like the gas and oil industry is one of the common Beaver County topics that […]

- Access the Airwaves at the Beaver County Airport I’m not sure how common this is nationwide, but in Beaver County we are fortunate to have our very own airport located right in Chippewa Township. While anyone taking a commercial flight generally makes the 20-minute drive up to the Pittsburgh International Airport, private pilots are able to make regular use out of the more […]

My grandmother lived at the corner of Buffalo and Second Street in Beaver, so the library was just a few blocks away and my mother would take me there and usually follow story hour with pizza at Grandma’s. I […]

If you didn’t know better, you might think that the Air Heritage hangar was simply a part of the airport and drive right by it. The Air Heritage […]
