Family Life’s “Staycation Destinations”
A western Pennsylvania golf course has been open for 110 years, but in all that time, it hasn’t brought in a dime in green fees. The founder of Buhl Park in the Sharon/Hermitage area thought that the sport of golf taught so many life lessons, he wanted a place where the entire community could learn, play, and become better citizens. This is the only free nine-hole golf course in the nation.
The park’s executive director Tom Roskos gives us a tour through the genesis of Frank Buhl’s dream, how many golfers arrive to shoot a round, and the other recreational and nature opportunities at Buhl Park.

“Staycation Destinations” is our weekly summer series, broadcast each Friday at noon on the radio and online, then posted to our News Podcasts page. Each offers a radio tour of a unique site in Pennsylvania or New York, close to home, relatively inexpensive, and good for a potential day trip or longer visit.
Each weekend, we also give you a “Sidetrip Suggestion” another place in our two states which stands out in a unique, quirky, or enlivening way.
“The largest living sign” in the world is in New York State’s Southern Tier. That is what Robert Ripley (of “Believe It or Not!” fame) called the arrangement of 260 Scotch Pine trees on a hillside behind the Canisteo-Greenwood School at Canisteo, NY. The name of the community first was spelled out in this way by students and their teachers as a school project in 1933.

Often, our “Faith Under Fire” features delve into cultural issues, government policies and Federal court rulings. Today though, our conversation looks at another frequent matter which puts our faith under fire: sorrow.
A Christian author whose son died years ago, before the baby had turned one year old, says wherever our griefs start, there is always a path forward, sometimes reliant on a new focus and new perspective. When people focus only on the past – or only on themselves – sorrow can be hard to shake. Grief is not erased, but has less power whenever a hurting person is able to help another hurting person. He says that we can move forward with reliance on the promises of the Bible, that God abides with the broken-hearted, and gives them a future and a hope (Jeremiah 29:11).
Richard Battle faces his own battles as a grieving father. His journey led him to be an author, motivational speaker and advisor. In this interview with Greg Gillispie, he speaking about the significance of the title and theme of the latest of his books: The Unopened Present.

In the following five years, she went through numerous surgeries to become male, but would regret her transition, and became one of many thousands who “de-transitioned” back toward her original body. But, there are permanent scars — physical and emotional. Here is her compelling, cautionary tale.
