The David Victor building at Second and Chestnut streets, which earlier housed an art studio and school and decades ago a cigar manufacturing factory, is now home to a guitar and bass lesson facility.

Speaking of music, Butch’s Log Cabin, 31 N. Second St., has karaoke Friday nights; Coplay Saengerbund has polkas on Sundays; and soon, rock and roll bands will begin playing Friday evenings at Saengerbund’s outside pavilion.

Youngsters won’t be left out. Several poolside deejay events are slated at Parkway Pool in the summer.

The heavy presence of law enforcement personnel at the borough hall, which catches some people by surprise, is not to be alarming. Police training is taking place on a regional basis.

All of the building’s nooks and crannies and the outdoors make the facility an ideal location for such training.
