PUNXSUTAWNEY — As written on the family chalk board in the den, “Dream Big” has always been the motto for Kerri Presloid.
After winning Penn State-DuBois’ B.I.G. (Business Ideas Gone Wild) competition in 2009, Presloid has been able to begin her dream of becoming an entrepreneur. The idea she submitted to the competition was a children’s game entitled “Treasure!” which is intended to help each player learn letter recognition while collecting the treasure of gold coins.
The game “Treasure!” has several ways to play for different age levels, from advanced toddler to kindergarten.
PUNXSUTAWNEY — Because National Hospital Week is a celebration of people, Punxsutawney Area Hospital is honoring its employees by recognizing the role each of them plays in extending a sense of trust to their patients and members of their community.
“A hospital is more than a place where people go to heal, it is a part of the community that fosters health and represents hope,” hospital CEO Dan Blough said. “From providing treatment and comfort to the sick, to welcoming new life into the world, hospitals are central to a healthy and vibrant community.”
