"Katie" Wylezik invited their fellow Penn College students for a Trolley Tour of downtown Williamsport on Saturday afternoon. Stops included Ozzie and Mae’s Hacienda, The Brickyard and Swirly, with students sampling free treats from each establishment.

Four lucky students won gift cards to Swirly, a new frozen yogurt and soft-serve ice cream shop on Pine Street, encouraging them to head back downtown on their own time.

"It was nice to see students taking advantage of our downtown area, making connections with local business owners and meeting some new friends on a sunny Saturday!" said Katie L. Mackey, coordinator of off-campus living and commuter services at the college.
