Yvonne

Weaver

LHHS Class of 1966

For Yvonne Weaver, a 1966 graduate of Lock Haven High School, her life has been dedicated to making an impact in her community of Loganton. Yvonne has a passion for preserving and sharing the rich traditions of the Sugar Valley and the surrounding areas.

In 1995, Yvonne was a part of a group of local citizens who worked to create the Sugar Valley Historical Society. Soon after, with a cancer diagnosis and treatments in progress, Yvonne worked with others to create the Bull Run One Room Schoolhouse Museum. Her work at this time included cataloging items, writing grants and helping with the many administrative functions required to create a new non-profit organization.

Prior to her work with the historical society, Yvonne served as an officer for the Sugar Valley Sports Boosters that created the Haunted Hayride for Sugar Valley in the 1980’s, when it was at its peak and one of the largest in the state of Pennsylvania.

Yvonne is a current member of the Clinton County Community Foundation and the United Methodist Church in Loganton. She was a founding member and current trustee for the Sugar Valley Concerned Citizens and served on the committee for the 175th Sugar Valley Anniversary Celebration. Yvonne was also instrumental in rebooting the Sugar Valley Good Ole’ days after a two-year hiatus and organizing the presentation of quilts for the Veterans of Sugar Valley.

Yvonne dedicated her professional life to working as a para-professional at the Sugar Valley Elementary School for over 25 years and then transitioned to the Sugar Valley Rural Charter School for almost another decade before her retirement in September 2009. In the early 1980’s, Yvonne took free business classes and started her own business with Weaver Awards and Trophies until she sold the business in the early 1990’s and became the Loganton Tax Collector. She has been proud to serve as a Senior Project Mentor for at least five students over the years.

Others honored in the Class of 2022 include: Harris and John Lipez, Stephen “Turbo” Toboz, Howard Peters, Malcolm Heimer and Rich Wykoff.
