Donation at the door is either a non-perishable food item or a $5 cash donation. Started in 2016, Trick or FEED has raised more than $2,000 in food and donations to date.
The State College area music scene has mourned the loss of another musician in recent days...One of the founding members of State College's Triple A Blues Band, Pete Sheridan, passed away in mid-September. Nicknamed “The Jukester,” Pete co-founded the Triple A Blues Band in 1991 with Dr. Dave Mudgett, and was the group's original harmonica player. Pete recorded two albums with the group, including their first album, Highwater, which won first prize in Billboard/Musician Magazines' “Best Unsigned Band Competition” for best song writing and musicianship.
