🚨 Stop the RWE Stargazer Solar Project in McKean County, PA 🚨

The RWE Stargazer Solar Project is a proposed 480 MW utility-scale solar development in McKean County, Pennsylvania, affecting land in:
• Keating Township
• Hamlin Township
• Norwich Township
• Sergeant Township

This is not a rumor.
This is not early discussion.

Public land records show that RWE Solar Development LLC has recorded exclusive purchase options and transmission line easements tied to the Stargazer Solar Project in McKean County.

This is how large-scale industrial energy projects move forward — quietly, piece by piece — until it’s too late.

McKean County is part of the The PA Wilds.
Mt. Jewett.
Smethport.
Port Allegany.
Crosby.
Hazel Hurst.
Bradford.

These communities are known for forests, trout streams, hunting traditions, dark skies, and rural character — not industrial-scale solar facilities with transmission corridors and decades-long infrastructure.

A 480 MW solar complex is not “a few panels.”
It is large-scale land conversion and permanent infrastructure.
We are not asking for mitigation.
We are not asking for negotiations.
We are demanding this project be stopped.

DID YOU KNOW?
R. R. Rifle Club Ladies Auxiliary of Chester County

The Auxiliary Club was formed in a meeting on June 14, 1958. Guy Johnson, Sr. met with the wives of the R. R. Rifle Club members for the purpose of forming the Ladies Auxiliary. President - Helen Watson (wife of Edward Watson), Vice President - Catherine Johnson (wife of Luther Johnson), Recording Secretary - Marian Lewis (wife of Ervin Lewis), Financial Secretary - Alberta Miller (wife of William Miller), Treasurer - Lydia Jones (wife of Brinton Jones) and Chaplains - Sara Jones (mother of Brinton Jones) and Martha Johnson (mother of the Johnson brothers). The above facts are documented in a handwritten Minutes Book.

In addition to the officers listed above, the Members were: Elizabeth Johnson, Erma Bond, Anna Mae White, Alfreda Johnson, Ethel Johnson and Doris Bond.

At this meeting Guy Johnson (Founding member of the R. R. Rifle Club) advised the ladies they would need a meaning and a purpose. The Ladies brought up they would be happy to be a part of the same club as their husbands.

Regular meetings were to be held on the second Saturday of each month. They planned the July meeting to have a covered dish supper, inviting the men and have them pay $.75 each as a start for their treasury. The monthly dues were set at $.25 per member. They started their treasury with $3.25 collected from members dues.
