Thunder on the River
BY CATHY MOLITORIS
OnSaturday, June 17, be prepared for the sound of thunder in Columbia. This isn’t ordinary thunder from a storm, however. Instead, it will be sound of hundreds of engines revving at noon as part of the Thunder on the River event. Hosted by the Columbia Lions Club, Thunder on the River will take place from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. along and around Locust Street and in Locust Street Park.
“It’s going to be a really nice event,” said Grant Shultz, who is organizing the event with Paul Resch. “We have 475 vehicles registered.”
Trophies will be awarded in a variety of categories, including Best of Show and the Barry Doutrich Memorial, named for the local auto service center owner who originated the car show in 2005. “We have
about 85 trophies we’ll be giving out,” Shultz stated.
A variety of food options will be available during the event, including several food trucks and local vendors on Locust Street. “We have a lot of Columbia organizations setting up stands, and we encourage people to eat at restaurants in Columbia,” Shultz remarked, adding that a list of restaurants may be found at https://columbiamerchants.com.
Activities for children will be held at CHI St. Joseph Children’s Health, 401 Locust St. “The Columbia Borough Police will be handing out Hot Wheels cars to all the kids, and there will be a Hot Wheels racetrack set up,” Shultz commented.
Proceeds from Thunder on the River will benefit three local charities - 96.1 SOX Toy Challenge on the Bridge, Janson Park playground
and the 11-11-11 Club. Since 2014, the Lions Club has donated more than $43,000 to local nonprofits. Additionally, car show participants are required to donate canned goods for the Columbia Food Bank as part of the registration process for Thunder on the River, Shultz said.
He noted that the day offers fun for the whole family, from adult car enthusiasts to children. “We’ll have music playing all day, including the Kracker Beez band, who will be performing around noon,” he stated. “It’s a great time to come to Columbia, hang out, walk up and down Locust Street, check out the cars, enjoy some food and have fun with your family.”

The Columbia Historic Preservation Society works to protect and promote the rich history of Columbia, and you can help support the organization’s mission by attending events happening this month. Columbia Railroad Day will be held on Saturday, June 10, and a Juneteenth Dinner will be held on Saturday, June 17, followed by a presentation at Zion Hill Cemetery on Sunday, June 18.
“We are going to have events at three different locations during Railroad Day,” said Chris Vera, president of the Historic Preservation
Society. “You’ll be able to hop on the trolley and go to each place.” Events will run from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. At Columbia Crossing River Trails Center, 41 Walnut St., two Civil War re-enactment units will be demonstrating, along with a World War II transportation group. Lectures on the railroad’s importance in Columbia will also be offered. People can ride the trolley to Columbia Historic Preservation Society, 21 N. Second St., where visitors can take in a 2,500-squarefoot model railroad display upstairs and check out a smaller display on the ground floor. Next, people can travel by trolley to the Columbia

Market House, 15 S. Third St., where a variety of nonprofits and railroad organizations will have displays. “You’ll also be able to get something to eat at the Market House,” Vera said, noting that a variety of food vendors offer international cuisine.
The Juneteenth Dinner will begin at 6 p.m. on June 17 at the Columbia Market House and will feature a speaker talking about the Zion Hill Cemetery in town, where African American veterans and other residents of the Tow Hill neighborhood are buried. “We are also going to have Nelson Polite Jr. as our special speaker, and he’ll be giving a talk about African American history,” Vera said, adding that Polite is the president of the African American Historical Society of South Central Pennsylvania. A meal will be served by South Lime restaurant, located in the market house. “They’re going to be preparing food from West Africa,” Vera noted.
Proceeds from the Railroad Day and the dinner will bene-
fit ongoing restoration work at Zion Hill Cemetery. “I have just had eight interpretative panels made, and they are going to tell people about the Tow Hill people who are buried at the cemetery,” Vera shared. The ceremony will take place at 1 p.m. on Sunday at the cemetery, 553 N.
Fifth St. “We’ll be talking about what our future plans are as well as unveiling the panels and a memorial wall,” he remarked. “The wall is going to be made using floor bricks from the Market House.”
Vera encourages everyone to come to the events and help support the Columbia Historic Preservation Society. “You can learn all about the
history of Columbia and get out and enjoy a relaxing day in town,” he stated. “It’s a great opportunity to learn about African-American history and railroad history in Columbia.”

A model train display is one highlight of Columbia Railroad Day.
From 9:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., live music will be featured in Locust Street Park, coordinated by Chris Prestia of Columbia School of Music. Plantings from various Columbia gardens will be available for purchase in the park as well, along with garden accessories for purchase from a limited number of vendors. The photography of John Reitzel will also be available for sale.
Each of the residential stops on the tour will feature at least one artist. Seven gardens will be spotlighted, showcasing different styles
and gardening features. Highlights will include container gardens, ponds, butterfly gardens and vegetable gardens.
One of the homes features Victorian-style gardens that have been certified by the National Wildlife Federation as a natural habitat. Wright’s Ferry Mansion’s gardens will showcase pawpaw trees, and a tour guide will share the story of the home and its gardens.
As Hohenadel explained, the tour was formerly coordinated by the local Chamber of Commerce. When that group decided to discontinue the event,

members of the board of Create Columbia suggested picking it up as a fundraiser. “It takes a certain amount of creativity to tend to a garden, and Create Columbia felt that it was a natural fit to adopt this event and expand it by showcasing local artists in action at each of the venues,” she shared.

available for purchase on the tour date in Locust Street Park. Cash or checks will be accepted, with an additional service charge for purchase by credit card. The tour will be held rain or shine. For more information, including a sneak preview of each garden, visit Create Columbia’s Facebook page.
