Get your game on!

I could not be happier that, today, I can finally tell you what I've been spending just about every waking moment on this summer at work!

We've just launched a new high school sports Web site that, honestly, I think is the best work our team has ever done. It looks nice, it's easy to navigate, and it has a LOT of stuff.

Check it out at GameTimePA.com. We'll be running a live scoreboard of tonight's first-of-the-season football games, so bookmark it and check back often!

I got an e-mail recently from John Stine, chairman of York's Police Heritage Museum, letting me know about their web site, policeheritagemuseum.com.

John writes:

The Police Heritage Museum in downtown York, showcases over 200 years of law enforcement history. Although we are a small non-profit organization, we have for 13 years collected and preserved artifacts that relate to law enforcement in York County as well as agencies outside of York and Pennsylvania. Presently we have approximately 3400 square feet of displays, with many more artifacts to be displayed. We feel it is as important to preserve law enforcement history as it is any other facet of our heritage.

Check out their site if you get a chance. Being a police officer at any time is not an easy job, but when you think about how much harder it was in the days before cars, radio, the Internet... wow, my respect for those old-time officers is immense.

(Make sure you check out the Lockups virtual exhibit on the site. It taught me a lot about the former jail buildings I've seen around the county, like the one by the Dover Park, pictured above!)
