: : : : : : : : OK, who are the Snyders and why do some claim that they control what goes on in Kittanning/county???;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
: : : : : : So, it is true that the Snyders may be one of the richest families in the country. That's right, the country--not county. It's not surprising that most people wouldn't know of them, as they tend to keep a low profile and seem to be more into making money than showing it to everyone. However, I don't think they are sinister and keep businesses out of Armstrong County. Most of their businesses are focused on natural resources so I don't think they have much interest in keeping other businesses out of Armstrong County. Mark Snyder is a county commissioner, which is why I suspect someone was taking a shot at the Snyders.
: : : : : Mark Snyder is a County Commissioner? In what county? Not Armstrong!!
: : : : ~~SW Pa Commission...check it out for yourself~~ http://www.spcregion.org/about_comm_arm.shtml
: : : Well that not a county in Pennsylvania. That is an appointed position.
: : Thanks for the info. However Mr. Mark S. ( dont use last names here) in NOT a commissioner for Armstrong County he is on a COMMISSION for South Western PA. However I can see how you would think so by not reading the whole page. Which make me ( NOT speaking for anyone else...just my thoughts and no one elses opinion) thinks why peolpe post on here with half-truths!
: ~~What do "you" call a person on a commission?~~
the snyders also own farmers bank and from what i have heard they bought into merchants bank as well...they are a nice family and those that think otherwise are jealous of their money
