A lot has happened since their graduation in 1999, and it's now time for the first East Great Falls High School Class of '99 reunion. Rumors have been spreading about the production of "American Reunion" for years, and now it's finally here. The movie is set to make a full release on April 6th, but if you can't wait that long, the State Theatre will be hosting an advance screening of the film this Tuesday, March 20th, at 8:00 p.m.

Just two weeks ago, Ron Musselman was named the new editor-in-chief of LazerPro Digital Media Group, our parent company, which also controls StateCollege.com, Altoona.com, and Williamsport.com.

We are excited to have Ron on the team and look forward to working with him more in the future.
The anticipation is eating away at State College more and more each and every day. Can Levels Nightclub possibly live up to the standard set by the Mezzanine, the building's previous occupant? We've been patiently awaiting an answer to that question, and it looks like that just might finally be coming. Levels posted on their Facebook on Wednesday evening, announcing a four-day opening extravaganza from Thursday, March 15th to Sunday, March 18th.
