2025 is the 106th anniversary of the Franchise that is now the Railriders. Originally founded in 1919 as the Reading Coal Barons, the team has played in Reading PA, Jersey City NJ, Ottawa ON, Albany NY, Columbus OH, and Orchard Beach ME, before moving to Scranton in 1989. After a 17-year affiliation agreement with the Philadelphia Phillies, the team has been the Triple-A affiliate of the New York Yankees since 2007.

Founded in 1858, the Luzerne County Historical Society is Pennsylvania’s oldest county historical society. LCHS preserves and promotes the collective history and heritage of Luzerne County, Pennsylvania, at the Bishop Library and the Museum in Wilkes-Barre, the Denison House in Forty Fort and the Swetland Homestead in Wyoming.
