In that article, the association's president warned the park might not stay a public place much longer without help, and borough officials discussed an agreement with the association.

The borough's pages for the park list no hours and no fee. No 2026 page confirms that the park is open.

Flagpole Hill is a borough park on the high ground above Huntingdon. The borough's page says its trails run up to 1 mile each and have been mapped and improved for walkers, joggers and cyclists. The 2026 trail map lists 16 named trails, and its mileage column gives 1.4279 for the Juniata College Loop Trail. The column is headed Mileage, but the map's scale bar reads feet, so the unit is unclear.

Two lots serve the trails: the Fifth Street lot and the Peace Chapel lot. The borough's rules allow parking there from dawn to dusk and bar overnight parking. The same rules ban motorized vehicles, alcoholic beverages, camping, open fires and littering, and they ask that pets stay under control.

The map's legend marks Juniata College property beside the trail system, and four numbered gates sit along the routes. The borough page prints no trail hours and no fee.

Huntingdon Cinemas Clifton 5 is a movie theater at 717 Washington Street in Huntingdon. The Clifton Theatre was rebuilt after a fire and reopened in 1931 with 1,000 seats. The owner, Dave Peoples, said he acquired the building 42 years ago, and about 18 years ago the cinema grew to five auditoriums.

An overnight storm in August 2026 damaged the roof and let an estimated 80 gallons of water into the theater, damaging Auditorium 2. The Daily News put the damage at $10,000 or more and reported a planned Wednesday reopening with three auditoriums. The owner hoped Auditorium 2 would run again within two to three weeks, pending an insurance adjuster. The site asks visitors to use its GoFundMe page for repairs.

The site lists films for Oct 31 through Nov 5, 2026. Adult admission is $10, children 12 and under pay $7, seniors 65 and over pay $6, and the Wednesday senior matinee is $4.

The Huntingdon Community Center, known as HCC, is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit at 310 5th Street in Huntingdon. Its website says it runs recreational, educational and social programs for people of all ages, and that it offers programs at low or no cost, with scholarships available.

The site traces its roots to 1924, when the local American Legion chapter began a campaign to build a community home. In June 1949 the Elks, Moose, American Legion and VFW bought the building and leased it to the community for $1 per year. The center opened as the Huntingdon Community Center on November 30, 1949.

The main building at 310 5th Street has a gymnasium, an education center, a game room, a skate room and a gathering space with a kitchen. Gymnastics and cheer meet at the William Smith Building on Moore Street. Detwiler Memorial Field, on Standing Stone Avenue, is home to soccer, T-ball and Camp HCC. The open gym is open to the public and free to attend, according to the center's open gym page.

The Huntingdon County Arts Center is at 313 12th Street, on the corner of 12th and Mifflin Streets in the uptown section of Huntingdon. The Huntingdon County Arts Council, which its history page says was founded in 1972, runs the center. A Daily News story places the center in the former 12th Street Methodist Church.

The gallery hosts free monthly exhibits from local and regional artists. Recent exhibits include paintings by Darryl Audia Jr., scheduled for August 6 to August 29, 2026, and 20 bronze sculptures by Michiel VanderSommen, shown in September and on display through October 3.

The Huntingdon County Courthouse stands at 223 Penn Street in Huntingdon, on the plot where the county's second courthouse stood from 1842 to 1883. The court's own history says the present building was designed by M.E. Beebe of Buffalo, New York, in a French Renaissance style, and completed in 1883.

Later work included major renovations in the 1930s, a new clock tower, and a 1972 addition of office space on the west side. The Huntingdon County Court of Common Pleas uses the building, and its contact page lists the courthouse as open Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

A fragment of the second Standing Stone, the stone scratched with the names of early surveyors and the date 1768, is on display inside. An Altoona Mirror story from April 2026 places it in the lobby, while the borough's undated history page says the main corridor. The borough says the names and date can still be seen on its surface.

The Juniata College Museum of Art occupies Carnegie Hall at Moore and 17th Streets in Huntingdon. The Beaux-Arts building was built in 1907 with funds from Andrew Carnegie and the citizens of Huntingdon, and it served as the college library until 1963. The museum formed in 1998 after the Worth B. Stottlemyer Collection was acquired.

The museum shows its collection, loaned and traveling exhibitions, and an annual presentation of student work. The about page says the building keeps the original elegance of its rotunda and Tiffany-styled dome. A fall show, 20 Years of Empty Bowls, opened September 24 and features handmade bowls created by Juniata students.

The museum's own page lists hours of Monday through Thursday, 2pm to 7pm, and Saturday, 12pm to 4pm, and says it is closed Fridays, Sundays and campus holidays.

The Peace Chapel is an environmental landscape site designed by Maya Lin. It sits on a hilltop in Juniata College's Baker-Henry Nature Preserve, a former chicken farm in Huntingdon. Juniata's own page says it was designed and built in 1988 and 1989, with support from Elizabeth Evans Baker and John Calhoun Baker.

The site has two parts. A ring of rough granite stones, about 40 feet across, sits on one hilltop. A flat granite disk sits among the trees on a neighboring hill, reached by a narrow path. Twenty-four flat stones mark the path up to the ring, which is open to the sky.

The chapel is on Peace Chapel Road, off Warm Springs Road, with parking about 200 yards up the gravel road. Lawrence Biemiller, writing in the Huntingdon Daily News, names it his favorite place for a hike. He reports that Lin was invited back to advise on care, and that plans call for raising some sunken path stones and trimming trees.

Portstown Park is a Huntingdon Borough park on Penn Street, just over the Smithfield bridge and across from Laney's Feed Mill. The borough's park page prints hours of 6AM to 10PM and lists a paved walking loop, a skatepark and a fishing pier.

A pavilion can be rented for picnics, birthdays, anniversary parties and other special events for a $50.00 fee. To reserve it, stop by the Borough Office at 530 Washington Street and complete the paperwork. The borough's rental terms, dated 2010, require a signed Release & Indemnification Agreement.

A Daily News photo caption from September 2026 places a trail along the Juniata River at the park. An October 2026 caption shows the Huntingdon Farmers Market under the pavilion.

Riverview Recollections is a self-guided walking tour through Riverview Cemetery on Standing Stone Avenue in Huntingdon Borough. The borough's Tour Our Town page says local people compiled and narrated it for the 250th anniversary of Huntingdon Borough, and that it is free. The map numbers 20 stops, starting with an introduction, and says they can be taken in any order.

Later stops name local figures buried in the cemetery, such as Susanna Eisenberg, David McMurtrie, Anne Dorris Chisolm and Frederick Schneider, and each has its own audio.

Sixth Street Park is a small green space behind the Huntingdon Borough Office building, on the corner of 6th and Penn Streets. The borough's parks page says the park is also known locally as Merchant's Park. The borough lists it with Flagpole Hill, Weaver Park, Blair Park and Portstown Park.

The park's own page prints one rule of use: leashed dog rules. The page does not describe the grounds, benches or equipment.

Neither borough page prints opening hours, a season or an admission charge for the park. The borough code (Chapter 16, section 16-101, Ord. 873 of 17 August 2010) says all borough parks, Sixth Street Park among them, close from 10:00 p.m. until 6:00 a.m.

The Standing Stone Monument is a stone shaft in Huntingdon. The Historical Marker Database places it in the median of William Smith Street, where it meets Penn Street (Pennsylvania Route 26). The Altoona Mirror reported in April 2026 that the replica sits between Penn and Third Streets, and the sources differ. It recalls a stone that Native Americans erected near the junction of Standing Stone Creek and the Juniata River. The place was called Standing Stone before it became Huntingdon.

The original stone was removed at an early date, and its replacement bore the names of early surveyors and the date 1768. That replacement was also broken into several pieces, according to a contemporary report, and a fragment is kept in the Huntingdon County Courthouse. In 1896, local industrialist J.C. Blair suggested a stone shaft to recall the original name, and it was dedicated that September.

The marker inscription gives September 8, 1896, as the erection date, with a rededication on March 29, 1996. The Altoona Mirror also reported that schools, organizations and businesses are named after the replica.

The Suzanne von Liebig Black Box Theatre is a performance room in the Halbritter Center for the Performing Arts on the Juniata College campus in Huntingdon. The Juniata Presents site lists the room as a venue for Student Theatre, which presents new work by Juniata students and guest artists, and it notes that the room has limited seating. Juniata dedicated the Halbritter Center in the fall of 2005, and that project also included renovations to Rosenberger Auditorium, which seats 900.

The Huntingdon Daily News reported a student-directed Julius Caesar in the Suzanne von Liebig Theatre, Halbritter Center, in October 2019. On March 29, 2025, the paper announced a Selected Shorts evening of story time for adults there on Saturday, April 5.

The Juniata Presents student theatre page lists A Christmas Carol at 7:30 p.m. on December 9 in the black box and says admission to Student Theatre is free to all, first come-first served. The page prints no year for that performance and no hours for the room.

Weaver Park sits behind the Weis Markets store at 611 15th Street in Huntingdon, between 15th and 16th streets. The Borough of Huntingdon lists park hours from 6AM to 10PM. Its park page, which is undated, says the swings suit toddlers and adults, and that two play sets were added recently.

The park is being rebuilt in phases. On October 24, 2026 the Daily News reported that old playground equipment had been removed and the ground dug out for new swings, slides and climbers. Mayor Thomas A. Yoder wrote that the all-abilities equipment would be installed by the end of December.

A new pavilion held a ribbon-cutting on October 21. The borough's park page lists a $50.00 rental fee for the Weaver Park Pavilion, reserved by stopping by the Borough Office at 530 Washington Street to complete the paperwork. Juniata College is replacing the pedestrian bridge over Muddy Run at the end of 16th Street. The borough is also using $200,000 from the sale of an adjacent softball field to Juniata College for the project.

The Borough of Huntingdon lists a holiday tree lighting at Bryan Park for Friday, November 27, 2026, from 6:00 to 8:00 PM. The borough's events page describes it as Santa, reindeer, entertainment and vendors. In 2025 borough crews set the town Christmas tree in front of the park, on the 500 block of Washington Street.

The Daily News covered the 2025 edition, which it called Holiday Light the Night and held on Black Friday, November 28. Food and 21 craft vendors were set to open from 5 to 9 p.m. The tree lighting was set for 7 p.m., with carriage rides, a petting zoo, reindeer and a live Nativity running alongside it that evening.

The Daily News ran stories on the 2025 event on November 13 and November 26, 2025, both before the lighting. The 2026 borough listing names the same park, and the page does not say whether the event repeats each year.
