Like the countless trees that have reclaimed Pennsylvania’s once cleared forest land, an effort has taken root to help preserve the history of communities founded upon the heritage of the region’s lumber industry. A group of Penn State DuBois students are helping the Lumber Heritage Region (LHR) to grow the opportunities built upon this foundation. Juniors in Business Administration 321 at Penn State DuBois were assigned a project in which they broke up into teams to research ideas that could stimulate the growth of local communities. They recently presented their findings to LHR administrators through Zoom.
