The 26th annual Bike & Hike, hosted by COBYS Family Services (COBYS), will take place on Sunday, Sept. 11, at the Lititz Church of the Brethren, 300 W. Orange St., Lititz. The signature components of the gathering will continue, with this year’s festivities featuring a bigger Incredible Ice Cream Celebration.

The Bike & Hike has raised more than $2 million in its history. These funds provide care for children and families receiving services through the COBYS foster care, adoption, counseling and family life education ministries. Participants can choose from three modes of transportation and four routes: a 3-mile walk through Lititz, a 10- or 25-mile bicycle ride through Lancaster County scenery or a 65-mile motorcycle ride circling the countryside around Lancaster. Individuals, families and groups are encouraged to attend, gather sponsors for their walk or ride or just hang out at the Incredible Ice Cream Celebration to learn more about the ministries of COBYS while enjoying ice cream from Fox Meadows Creamery. As part of Bike & Hike, COBYS has launched its Kickstart Fund again this year. The goal is to raise $25,000 before Sept. 11, helping to sustain the organization throughout the year. View COBYS’ Facebook and Instagram pages to follow along with preparations for the Bike & Hike and the Kickstart. A full schedule of events can be found at www.cobys.org/bike-and-hike. Preregistration for the Bike & Hike is encouraged but not required. Registration can be done at the aforementioned website, with a minimum donation before Monday, Sept. 5, or a larger donation after that date. Sponsors include Fillmore Container and The Hess Agency. Motivated by Christian faith, COBYS Family Services seeks to educate, support and empower children and adults to reach their full potential. Located in Lancaster County, COBYS Family Services provides a range of foster care, adoption, permanency, family life education and counseling services throughout the region.

“Topping-Out” Ceremony Held At Landis Place

A crowd of construction partners, Landis Quality Living board members, donors and newly signed tenants recently enjoyed a morning at Landis Place to participate in a topping-out gathering. Topping out is a builders’ tradition that celebrates a milestone during a construction project.

High Construction project superintendent Jim Kline noted the tradition goes back as far as the 700s, when builders in Scandinavian regions would place a sheath of grain on top of the building for good luck.

During the ceremony held on Aug. 2, all those in attendance signed a steel beam that was then lifted by a construction crane and set in place in the northwest corner of the building, becoming the first of the roof beams to be set. A prayer of thanks and gratitude was offered by the Rev. Elizabeth Soto.

The building will contain apartments aimed at the middle market as well as for those with less than the area median income. Landis Quality Living is in the process of raising at least $550,000 to bring down the amount needing to be financed, making it possible for at least eight of the apartments to be available at lower-cost rents. If more funds are raised, the number of low-cost apartments will increase.

When finished, Landis Place on King will bring 79 apartments and groundfloor retail space to 239 W. King St., Lancaser. The opening is set for March of 2023 and already has renters for about 30% of the apartments, even without having a model to show.

For more information on Landis Place on King, visit www.landisplace.org.

During the topping-out gathering, all those in attendance signed a steel beam, which was later set into place.
