Williamsport: Home of the Little League World Series
Williamsport sits along the West Branch of the Susquehanna River in Lycoming County. Carl Stotz founded Little League Baseball here in 1939, organizing the first games in a field at the corner of West Fourth Street and Demorest Street. The Little League World Series has been played in South Williamsport every August since 1947, drawing teams from around the world to Howard J. Lamade Stadium and Volunteer Stadium.
In the late 19th century Williamsport was the lumber capital of the world. The Susquehanna Boom, a series of piers and chains in the river, held logs floated downstream from the forests of the West Branch watershed to be sorted and milled. By the 1890s Williamsport reportedly had more millionaires per capita than any other city in the United States. The lumber barons built mansions along West Fourth Street, now the Millionaires' Row Historic District.
Lycoming College, a liberal arts institution affiliated with the United Methodist Church, enrolls about 1,200 students on a campus just north of downtown. Pennsylvania College of Technology, a specialized associate campus of Penn State, offers applied programs in areas such as aviation and culinary arts. The Susquehanna River Walk and Timbers Landing parks line the water edge on the south side of downtown.
