Hello. Two “Pennsylvania Free Fishing Days” are held each year. The second is scheduled for Sunday July 4. All regulations and rules still apply, but you do not need to have a fishing license to enjoy fishing in Pennsylvania’s waterways on this day.

Hope everyone has a happy and safe celebration for the July 4th weekend vacation. Proudly fly your flags as we remember what our country went through to gain all the freedoms we enjoy on a daily basis. Our star flag represents the freedoms of our country and the sacrifices that have been made to guarantee those freedoms.

From the kitchen

This week’s recipe is diabetic-friendly and tasty for everyone.

“Raw Broccoli Salad” makes six servings of a refreshing salad to serve the family.

Start by cutting 4 cups of broccoli or broccolini into bite-sized florets, then set aside. Whisk together 1/4 cup minced red onion, 2 tbsp Splenda granulated sugar substitute, 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar, 2 tbsp low fat mayonnaise, 2 tbsp sunflower seeds (shelled, toasted and lightly salted) and 3 tablespoons seedless raisins in a medium bowl. Add the broccoli florets. Stir to coat well. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Each serving is 2/3 cup and has 60 calories per serving, which is equal to one vegetable and half a starch in the swap program.

Have a happy …
