Hi everybody, welcome to my #CamCoProud blog post! My name is Allyson Narby and I am a senior at Cameron County High School. I love to play softball and to cheer during football season. All my love belongs to my cat, Penelope! I also work at Fox’s Pizza Den, which I love.  I have lived in Cameron County my whole life and I am very lucky to live in this beautiful town where most of my family lives. My family is extremely close, we love to be together. Since my communications class is going to be interviewing our peers about how they feel about Cameron County, we decided we should also give you our input! So here it goes! ​

What do you love about Cameron County?

I love so many things about Cameron County. One of my favorite things is the view. I love driving around South Mountain with my friends, especially during the fall to look at the trees. The mountains always look so pretty and they really make the town feel like home.
 I also really like that no matter where you go, there will always be someone around to help you with anything you may need. I remember one time I was working and when I was leaving there was a note on my window to let me know I had a flat tire. I was so thankful someone left it for me because I had no idea. I went to Sheetz to fill up my tire and as soon as I pulled in a man came right up to me and asked me if I needed help. I was so thankful for him and he immediately starting filling up my tire. That’s the kind of thing that wouldn’t happen in bigger cities and that’s what makes Cameron County such an amazing place.

Where are you going after you graduate?

After I graduate, I am going to move to West Virginia and to attend college at West Virginia University at Morgantown. I plan to major in biology and I cannot wait! I am so excited to begin my journey in becoming a Physicians Assistant. The campus is beautiful and I cannot wait to finally be a Mountaineer!!

What do you like to do in Cameron County?

During my free time, I really like to hangout with my friends. While a lot of the time, we go out of town when we’re bored, we still do a lot of fun things in town. During the summer, we always go tubing, it’s one of our favorite things to do. We also like to find rocks and rope swings to jump off of into the Crick! Sometimes, we will go swimming at a friends house and have a fire too. We always listen to music and just have a good time together. When we were younger, we used to walk around town all night long and we thought it was so fun. There isn’t a lot to do here but we always do our best to find fun things to do!

What would you miss in Cameron County if it wasn't here?

If it was gone, I would really miss Sheetz. I go to Sheetz all the time and for everything! If I’m hungry, I’ll go to Sheetz and get an app platter, or if my friends are upset, or even if I’m upset, we just go to Sheetz and get a milkshake. I LOVE to go to Sheetz in the morning and get my favorite drink, a cold brew!

What about Cameron County Do you hope never changes?

​Something about Cameron County that I hope never changes is the closeness of the community. Whenever anyone is in need, the community never hesitates to come together and help. Our community is like a family. Everyone will always be ready to lend a helping hand to anyone in need.

What would you change about Cameron County to make it better?

I would want to work towards having less drugs problems. Our town is known to others for the drug problem we have. I think if we fixed up the drug problem a little bit, more families would want to come raise their children here. No one wants to raise their child in a drug-filled town!
