    CENTRE HALL RELAY FOR LIFE

    CENTRE HALL — For many at the Centre Hall Relay For Life, these 24 hours are full of emotional ups and downs.

    On Centre: Penns Valley

    Residents used to host Halloween parties in the back of Rebersburg National Bank, which opened in 1920. They changed the name of Jacobsburg to Madisonburg in 1830 to honor the fourth U.S. president. They never struck oil on the 1914 platform set up on Jacob Gephart’s farm, but they did have fun joking about it.
