Pennsylvania’s Neighborhood: Somerset County

In September, PCN celebrates all that Somerset County has to offer. Highlights include tours of regional wineries and breweries. Viewers will hear from local native, John Moeller, who served as a White House Chef under three First Families. Former Gov. Mark Schweiker will discuss his role during the Quecreek Mine rescue of 2002. Somerset County will take center stage in special episodes of Historic PA Courthouses, Exploring Pennsylvania Boroughs, Journalists Roundtable, and On the Issues.

On September 11^th, we’ll wrap up the week in remembrance of the 20^th anniversary of the crash of American Airlines Flight 93 in Shanksville, PA. We’ll hear from the first responders, elected officials, and community members who were thrust into the spotlight as a result of terrorist acts. We’ll also look at how the region has memorialized that fateful day, through tours of the Flight 93 National Memorial site, and live coverage of commemorative events.
