At 26, Greg Schneider is not yet a recognized community leader. But he plans to be. He has--as many of his high school classmates have not--returned to his hometown of St. Marys, Pennsylvania, to make his living and to raise his family. He knows that leadership will be an important factor in the stability and prosperity of his community; he pitches in. There is his job as executive secretary of the Chamber of Commerce and the Economic Development Corporation, volunteer participation in a local planning group and a local collegiate center, and an active role in attempts to continue local airline service into his isolated rural community. Not all are successful; business development and community planning are often low-return endeavors. But the experiences are invaluable for a young man seeking a role in shaping the future of his hometown. Produced by P J O’Connell for Penn State Public Broadcasting.
