Senator Judy Ward, a member of the Pennsylvania State Senate, shared updates on her participation in recent community events through her social media posts.
On July 22, 2025, Senator Ward posted about recognizing a local organization: “I was pleased to present a citation to the Altoona Chapter of AMBUCS to celebrate their 100th year anniversary! Accepting the citation is chapter president, Rick Centar. This is a truly great group of folks in our community.”
The following day, July 23, 2025, she highlighted her involvement in Fulton County’s milestone celebration: “As part of Fulton Co. 175th Anniversary Celebration, I attended the Muzzleloader Shoot at the Fulton Co. Pistol & Rifle Club. I had a blast lighting the fuse of a Civil War cannon for a direct hit on a 200-yard target! Opening ceremony for the day was led by Boy Scout Troop 43.” In another post from that day, she added: “I am also pictured with Buck Hesler and Jan Fraker. Jan organizes this wonderful event.”
AMBUCS is a national charitable service organization focused on creating mobility and independence for people with disabilities. The Altoona Chapter’s centennial marks its long-standing presence and impact within Blair County. Additionally, Fulton County’s anniversary commemorates its founding in south-central Pennsylvania in 1850; such events often feature historical reenactments and community gatherings.
Senator Ward has represented Pennsylvania’s 30th District since her election to the State Senate in 2018.
