Hundreds of people will be spending this Saturday ringside! The WPAL Fitness Center once again is holding the Golden Gloves Championships boxing tournament at the DuBois Country Club.

All of the seated tickets, for both general admission and VIP, have sold out at this point, making it their most successful year yet!

However, they’ll still be offering $30 standing-room-only tickets at the door, starting at 6:30 this Saturday.

This is part of the nationwide Golden Gloves competition, but it’s also a way of raising money for the local WPAL gym.

It gives kids a free place to work out, stay out of trouble, and get connected with the good influence of local police officers, who can also work out for free there.

Listen to the full interview with Aaron Beatty from the WPAL Boxing and Fitness Center in DuBois.

DuBois, PA – If you’re known for your famous chili recipe, there’s still time to enter into the Chili Cook-Off at the DuBois Nursing Home!

It’ll be held this Wednesday from 10:30 until 1.

Since it’s in the middle of the workday, you don’t even have to be there for the event itself… just drop off your chili to the nursing home tomorrow morning.

Each contestant will need to bring six quarts of chili and a list of ingredients, plus the $5 entry fee.

The winner of the cook-off will receive a $50 gift card and “Right to Brag” Best Chili Trophy.

If you’re a better eater than you are a cook, you still have an important role in this competition… a judge.

For just a $5 donation, you can sample and vote for the winner. You’ll receive a taste of each chili, a hot dog, a drink and the chance to vote for “Best Chili”. You can also buy a full cup of your favorite chili.

All the proceeds benefit the local Alzheimer’s Walk.

Tax season means scam season for IRS impersonators.

It could be an email. It could be a phone call.

Tax accountant Janice Hayman says, "It's really scary. You have those who are pretending to be IRS agents or marshalls saying that you owe money and they're about to come and take your first born."

Maybe that's an overstatement, but they'll at least demand immediate payment, maybe with a credit card.

The real IRS would never contact you by phone or demand that you pay immediately or threaten to put you in jail.

Hayman says, if it happens to you - hang up. If the real IRS wants to get in touch with you to discuss something for real, its first step is sending you an old fashioned letter.

"The only time they could call you is if you have this ongoing exchange with them. And then of course, you'd have a number to call back and verify that it's them."

What if you do actually owe the IRS money? When it comes time to pay, do not give information over the phone. The real IRS is happy to take a check. If you prefer to use a credit card, look at the IRS website for a list of approved tax payment processors.
