The Mountville Lions Club will host a potpie supper on Saturday, Oct. 15, at St. Paul’s United Methodist Church, 100 W. Main St., Mountville.

In addition to chicken potpie and various desserts, the Lions Club will sell Lions Brooms. A tradition that began with blind members of the community making brooms as a fundraising project for the club, the brooms are now handcrafted by a local Amish craftsman.

Grace Church Posts Car Show,

BY ADRIAN ESCHENWALD

GraceChurch Lancaster will host a car show on Saturday, Oct. 29, at its location at 911 Rohrerstown Road. Those with entries for the show may arrive at 9:30 a.m., and the event will be held from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. The show will have food available for purchase and include a variety of games and activities for children. To register a car for the show, visit https://tinyurl.com /gracelanccarshow.

Grace Brethren Church will sell hot dogs and baked goods; all proceeds will benefit its youth assistance fund, which covers the cost of transportation for special events for those unable to afford it. The event will feature a bounce house, face painting

and a trunk or treat activity, as well as many carnival games with prizes for children who participate.

“It’s a safe place for both children and their parents to come enjoy themselves,” said pastor Scott Becker. “The kids always get dressed up for the trunk or treat and the parents enjoy the collection of classic cars.” People’s choice awards will be given to the owners of the three most popular cars, and Becker will provide music during the event as its DJ.

With the exception of 2020, Grace Church has hosted its car show each year since 2016. “I was a new pastor and came to the church in 2015. We were looking for ways to connect and provide something fun for the community,” said Becker.

“We want to let people know that we’re here and that we care.”

Prior to becoming the pastor of Grace Church Lancaster, Becker and his family were missionaries in Ireland for 13 years. Becker was a member of Grace Church in Lititz prior to moving to Ireland, and in 2015, he was contacted and informed that the Lancaster congregation required assistance. Despite being settled and comfortable in Ireland, Becker and his family relocated and he became the pastor of Grace Brethren Church.

“ We realized that was the direction God was calling us. It wasn’t what we were looking to do and moving wasn’t easy, but we had no doubt in our minds this is where we needed to be,” said Becker. Grace Brethren Church is involved with several missions both locally and globally, supporting communities in Japan, Germany, Ireland and beyond. A service at Grace Church Lancaster is held at 10 a.m. each Sunday, followed by a Bible study.

The church has several other events slated for the rest of the year, including a “casual conversation” program that will provide a space f or those who speak English as a second language to practice conversing with others. For more information, visit www.gracelanc.org.

In the early morning hours, you may see a group of men working out at Rapho Township Community Park or at Mountville Community Park. What you might not know is that they’re doing more than exercising. They’re practicing the “three Fs.” As members of F3, the guys are engaging in fitness, fellowship and faith.

To celebrate the fifth anniversary of F3 Lanco, the group will host a

F itness Group pg

Grace

Manniversary workout at Rapho Township Community Park, 960 Strickler Road, Mount Joy, on Saturday, Oct. 22. The workout will begin at 7 a.m. and will be followed by fellowship over coffee and breakfast sandwiches. Men of all ages and all fitness levels are invited to join the group.

Kevin Keel, who is in charge of recruitment for F3 Lanco, noted that the local group began when Gary Fyke relocated to the area from Chicago, where he had participated in an F3 group. F3 is a national network of free, peer-led workouts that began in 2006 with a mission “to plant, grow and serve small workout groups for men for the invigoration of male community leadership.” Each F3 meeting follows five core

principles: It is free of charge, it’s open to all men, it’s held outdoors rain or shine, it’s peer led and it ends in a Circle of Trust. As Keel explained, the Circle of Trust is a time of prayer and an opportunity to build camaraderie among the participants. Each workout concludes with coffee and time for fellowship.

Keel joined F3 Lanco three years ago after he was introduced to the group by a friend. “I immediately loved it, the encouragement of the guys,” he said. “One of the things that attracted me the most is that this is not a judgmental group. We’re encouraging.”

Keel noted that his teenage son often joins him for workouts and that the group has members of all ages, from boys younger than his son to men in their 60s and 70s. “This is open to anyone, even if you’ve never worked out before. There is something for everyone,” he stated. “You can modify the workout however you need to.”

Over the years, the group has experienced some memorable workouts due to the F3 policy of never canceling no matter the weather. A few years ago, when the guys arrived at the Rapho Park after a snowstorm, they realized the parking lot hadn’t been plowed, but they didn’t let that stop them. “We were running and doing all kinds of things, including bear crawls, out in the snow,” Keel said with a laugh.

Keel encourages anyone with an interest in working out or making friends to come to the Manniversary event. “It’s really more than a workout,” he remarked. “It’s really a network of friends that I’ve built, and these guys are my best friends. I went from not having many guy friends to having a lot of them. I can honestly say it’s changed my life.”

F3 Lanco meets at Rapho Township Community Park at 4:30 a.m. on Tuesdays, at 5:30 a.m. on Thursdays and at 7 a.m. on Saturdays. The group meets at Mountville Community Park, 351 N. Lemon St., at 5:30 a.m. on Wednesdays and 7 a.m. on Saturdays. For more information on F3 Lanco, visit www.f3lanco.com or email f3lanco@f3lanco.com.

Since 1940, National Newspaper Week has been observed the first full week in October, so I thought it appropriate to share my thoughts on why supporting your local newspaper is more important than ever.

It’s a popular notion that the internet has marked the downfall of community newspapers. And, while many have stopped publishing due to tough economic times, the rising cost of newsprint, and other factors, your community newspapers can do something the internet can’t: We promote connections at a local level. Some say that because people can tweet, blog, surf, shop, and search online, no one reads newspapers anymore, but you just proved that to be a myth. Rather than being replaced by all the noise of “instant” media, your free local paper has become more important than ever. We are a part of your neighborhood. We shine a spotlight on people and organizations that make your town a better place to live, work, and play. No,

they probably won’t get a million views on TikTok, but they are heroes who live down the street and are making a positive difference in our community.

In the past year the publisher of this newspaper, Engle Printing & Publishing Co., Inc. (EPC) has featured more than 1,500 front-page articles benefiting more than 1,000 local nonprofit organizations in Lancaster, Chester, Berks, York, and Dauphin counties. Those numbers don’t take into account the thousands of press releases that make their way into our papers each year.

With all the talk about social media, why do we continue to publish free community newspapers? It’s who we are and who we’ve been for nearly 70 years. We live here, too, and we want to keep our communities thriving as much as you do.

If you know of an organization or individual making a positive impact on your community, contact us at news@engleonline.com or visit https://townlively.com/event -submission to submit an event.

Sharing With Those Who Understand

BY ANN MEAD ASH

Bill Terry, who founded the Lancaster County Veterans Breakfast Club, which meets on the third Saturday of each month, worked with Marc Spiridigliozzi and others to bring Todd DePastino, executive director of the Veterans Breakfast Club, from Pittsburgh to Woodcrest Villa for a special breakfast event on Sept. 17.

More than 70 area veterans gathered to hear from DePastino, see Blankets of Honor bestowed, and hear and tell their stories among others who understand. “We get Army, Navy, Air Force, Coast Guard, National Guard, Marines,” said DePastino, who briefly interviewed a Marine named Ed Moreau while waiting for breakfast to be served. Moreau relayed what it was like to be the lone Marine in a

family of Navy veterans. “My Dad said, ‘I can forgive you because the Marine Corps is a department of the Navy,’” Moreau recalled. “I said, ‘That’s right, Dad; it’s the men’s department.’”

DePastino also spoke to Sara Hodgkiss, who transformed her family’s farm into an official nonprofit equine-assisted therapy organization for veterans and people with disabilities called Woerth It Hollow. Hodgkiss told DePastino about her six years of service as a human resources information management specialist for 3,500 to 4,500 soldiers at a time.

Terry was interviewed about his unusual service as a Navy diving medical technician, who dove wearing suits of 180 to 300 pounds. Terry explained how he was trained to place IVs and perform minor surgery.

How To Maintain An Older Vehicle

New cars have been costly for quite some time, but those costs have spiked considerably since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. That unprecedented rise may lead many motorists to wonder how they can get more mileage out of their existing vehicles. According to data from Kelley Blue Book and Cox Automotive, the average cost of a new car in September 2021 was just over $45,000. That marked a $3,000 increase from June 2021 and a $5,000 increase from the end of 2020.

Drivers who may not be able to afford the cost of a new vehicle can take the following steps to keep their existing cars running smoothly for years to come.

- Take care of the timing belt. Engines may get all the glory, but they cannot run smoothly without a fully functional timing belt, which helps to synchronize movements of various components. Owner’s manu-

als may note when to replace the timing belt, but they generally must be replaced every 60,000 to 105,000 miles. Although replacement is required infrequently, drivers can ask their mechanics to keep an eye on their timing belts. During the early months of the pandemic, many people learned that infrequent driving can cause a timing belt to fail before it reaches the projected mile marker. Aging drivers should keep this fact in mind if they do not drive as much as they used to.

- Take care of the brakes and associated components. The experts at Popular Mechanics urge drivers of older vehicles to replace their brake fluid every two years. Popular Mechanics also advises drivers whose cars are more than seven years old to replace the rubber brake lines when major brake work is required.

- Pay attention to oil levels. The

older engines get, the more oil they burn. For this reason, owners of older vehicles should check their oil levels more often than they would if their vehicles were brand new. These checks also provide a way to discover leaks before they lead to potentially significant issues.

- Don’t skip maintenance appointments. Even if you’re still driving less due to the pandemic, it’s best to keep up with maintenance on any car, especially if the car is older. Routine tune-ups and oil changes, which may need to become more frequent the older the vehicle gets, can keep cars running smoothly and protect the engine over the long haul.

The rising cost of new cars may compel people to keep their cars longer than they might have anticipated. A few simple maintenance measures may help to prolong the life of a vehicle.

Veterans Breakfast

The first Blanket of Honor recipient at the breakfast was Spiridigliozzi. DePastino asked Spiridigliozzi about his time in the Army in Vietnam. “I was a light weapons infantry man,” said Spiridigliozzi, who took part in about 26 combat assaults with a Huey helicopter, which he called the “Calvary’s horse in Vietnam.”

Manny Acuna with Blankets of Honor presented Spiridigliozzi with a blanket, wrapping it around the veteran’s shoulders and saying, “We are here for you.” Joined by Terry and DePastino, the group offered prayer, with Acuna noting, “For your service, you shall not be forgotten. We thank you for your sacrifices.”

Blankets of Honor are given to Gold Star family members and other supporters of veterans. Acuna brought a supporter blanket to present to DePastino. “It represents the people who guard the freedom

Lions Club

The chicken potpie supper is the primary fundraiser for the Mountville Lions Club. The club also participates in the yearly Washington Boro Tomato Festival and a game stand during the Mountville Fire Company Carnival. The money raised from each event directly benefits the Lions Club and its many endeavors that focus on providing aid to the community. Among its projects, the club provides scholarships for seniors at Hempfield High School, supports Beacon Lodge in Union County, maintains the pavilion at Mountville Park and assists with specific requests from members of the community in need.

Beacon Lodge is a camp for children and adults with special needs and is sponsored by the Pennsylvania Lions. During its camping season, it provides programs designed to help individuals with hearing and visual impairment, people with intellectual disabilities and those who require assisted living care. During its offseason, Beacon Lodge opens its grounds to be rented by the public and serves as a

while we are away,” he explained. “We thank you for being here, Todd,” he added.

DePastino, who is not a veteran, explained his calling to be a supporter, saying, “I love being a part of the veteran community. This community is special. The camaraderie is intense, and I am an honorary part of the group.”

In addition to live Veterans Breakfast Club meetings, DePastino holds weekly virtual meetings at www.veteransbreakfastclub.org, and he produces a free quarterly magazine for veterans called “VBC Magazine.”

The Veterans Breakfast Club generally meets at the Bird-in-Hand Family Restaurant and Smorgasbord, 2760 Old Philadelphia Pike, Bird-in-Hand, beginning at 7 a.m. Breakfasts are free for veterans and spouses. To reserve a space, call 717-929-0310.

Service To Bless Animals

conference center, educational facility and camp for other special needs organizations.

“We’re always looking for volunteers. Anyone that wants to help their community can reach out to us,” said Eric Weaver, a member of the Mountville Lions Club for over 20 years. “We love doing good work and having good fellowship while we do it.”

The Lions Club has a legacy of providing assistance to those with visual impairments that began decades ago, when Helen Keller spoke at a Lions Clubs International convention asking for assistance. To this day, the club strives to support several organizations that support the visually impaired, including VisionCorps in Lancaster city.

The Lions Club has several projects in the work that the funds from the pot pie supper will support, including a blood drive in November and an initiative to replace benches around the community.

Tennis Team Holds Off Penn Manor 4-3

BY ARA GRIGORIAN

In a Section One tennis match at Penn Manor on Friday, September 23, Hempfield came away with a close 4-3 victory, improving to 5-1 in the L-L League.

“It was a tough match, but our girls stepped up. We had crucial victories at number 2, 3 and 4 singles along with number two doubles.

“Our girls fought hard until the entire match,” Bell added. “It was evident they wanted this win.”

Alex Gregory and Megan Wendel claimed that number two doubles, 8-3.

In singles, Gregory topped Haley Hutchinson 6-1, 6-0. Sullivan won 6-1, 6-1 while Wendel won in straight sets at number four singles.

Lindsay Over and Selena Felices lost a close third doubles match as did Sullivan and Sophie Carson at number one.

Hempfield came up short at Conestoga Valley in a 4-3 match on Monday.

Gregory and Wendell collected all of the team points for Hempfield, including an 83 doubles win followed by Gregory winning number two singles 7-5, 6-2 and Wendell the fourth singles (7-6, 6-0).

Carson played a tough match

at first singles, winning 6-3, then losing the next set before undertaking a marathon tiebreaker. She lost 16-14.

“That loss ended our chances of getting into the league playoffs,” Bell noted. “There is an outside chance we get into districts.”

GIRLS’ SOCCER

Hempfield played host to Northern in a non-league girls’ soccer match Friday, September 23. The Polar Bears’ frigid defense denied the Black Knights as the visitors posted a 2-0 victory.

“We had a couple of opportunities to get on the board but were unsuccessful,” head coach Jason Mackey said. “Offensively, we have been able to create more chances as a team this season.”

The Bears scored twice in the first half, making their 20 lead last the final 50 minutes of the match. Anna Lehman’s goal in the 30th minute gave the Bears their eventual winning margin.

Emileigh Antesberger made six saves for Hempfield. The Knights directed three shots on goal but were denied.

“We have been able to keep many of our games close in both our wins and losses,” Mackey said. “We are anchored by Emileigh Antesberger defensively.”

Antesberger made three saves in Tuesday’s 3-0 shutout of Conestoga Valley in Landisville. The Knights improved to 24-0 in the Lancaster-Lebanon League.

Gabbie Moore assisted on all three goals, dishing out scoring chances to Sam Earhart,

Tessa Groff, and Faith Siegrist.

FOOTBALL

The Knights strengthened their postseason hopes by beating Manheim Township 17-14 on the road Friday, September 23, in a clash between Section One rivals. With the win, the Knights improved to 4-1 and 20 in Section One.

“No question this was a big win for our players,” head coach George Eager said. “We know Manheim Township is a playoff team and this gives our players confidence moving forward.”

Hempfield scored first with a 25-yard Cannon Biscoe field goal.

“We were able to score on the opening drive,” Eager pointed out. “Having a reliable kicker can win you games. At the end it was a three-point win.”

The 36-yard pass from Stephen Katch to Gabe Benjamin in the final seconds of the half made it 10-0 Knights.

Another special teams’ score helped Hempfield go up by 17 points when Grant Hoover returned the second half opening kickoff 93 yards.

“To start the second half like that provided so much energy as well as a solid lead,” Eager said. “It was a game changer.

“Also, for special teams, our punting team did a good job of putting Township in long field positions,” Eager said. Jackson

Landis averaged 38.1 yards per punt on seven punts.

MT’s Hayden Johnson completed 32-of-44 attempts for 234 yards. He scored on a quarterback keeper in the third quarter and hit Landon Kennel on a nine-yard scoring pass in the fourth to make it 17-14.

Landis completed 12-of-24 passes for 115 yards to also lead Hempfield.

Nick Beck had a team-high 10 tackles while Benjamin recorded seven. Brian Williams and Deyvid Palepale each had six tackles.

“Defense and special teams were mainly why we won this game,” said Eager. “We were able to hang on because of our defense.”

Hanging on they did as Township’s late drive resulted in a missed field goal that would have tied the score.

“Township’s kicker is very good,” Eager said. “He has hit some long ones. We were fortunate his last attempt didn’t go through.”

CROSS COUNTRY

Hempfield topped Manheim Township 24-31 and Conestoga Valley 15-50 in Section One cross country on Tuesday, September 27.

Aidan Hodge and Joe Fahrney grabbed the top two spots in the race with respective times of 15:55.5 and 15:59.

Also leading the Knights (6-

0) to victory were Sam Meyer (6th) Isaiah Hollinger (7th) Sam Freedman (12th) Chris Titter (13th) and Frank Christoffel (15th).

The Hempfield girls (2-4) beat CV 19-44 but lost to Township.

Molly Siebert was third (20:23.7) while Norah Rynier (11th) Ashley Page (12th) and Roz Scott (15th) also finished strong.

BOYS’ SOCCER

Coming off a 3-0 loss to Chambersburg in a non-league Saturday match, the boys’ soccer team bounced back with a 1-0 defeat of Section One foe Conestoga Valley on Tuesday. Jacob Carr made six saves for Hempfield (6-3-2, 5-0-1 league) to help Jase Colino’s early second-half goal stand up for the victory.

FIELD HOCKEY

With 28 shots on goal, Penn Manor defeated Hempfield 10-0 on Thursday, September 22 in an L-L League match. The Knights fell to 1-8-0 overall.

“We have a very young team this year,” said head coach Sara Brooks. “We have seen sparks of the team giving all-out efforts and playing as a team the entire game. We continue to learn and grow from each game as we strive to better ourselves.”

In a close non-league match against Central Dauphin on Monday, the Knights fell 3-0.

Paige Brosig exemplified her coach’s words of “all-out effort” by making 18 saves.

GIRLS’ VOLLEYBALL

In Section One girls’ volleyball action, Hempfield topped Cedar Crest 25-13, 25-9 and 25-22 in a 3-0 victory on Thursday, September 22. The Knights raised their record to 6-0 on the year.

Addie Leber poured in 14 kills, registered three blocks, and tied Sarah Hess in aces with two.

Melody Butzer gave out 27 assists while Kate Howard added 12 digs.

GOLF

Ethan Green shot an 8over-par 79 at Fairview Golf Course on Monday, September 26, in the L-L League Championships. In the ClassAAA competition, Green finished tied for 11th with Warwick’s Joey McGinty and Penn Manor’s Seb Elias.

Hempfield teammates Jadon Lee and Drew Bennett shot 86 and 88, respectively.

Crest and Township finished 1-2 in the team standings with respective scores of 300 and 306.

Hempfield (344) finished seventh in the team standings.

Hands-On-History Days Are Back!

BY ANN MEAD ASH

“(Hands-On-History Days) are very popular,” said Sheri Brown, workshop coordinator with Landis Valley Village and Farm Museum, 2451 Kissel Hill Road, Lancaster. Brown noted that Hands-On-History Days began as a day for homeschoolers to visit the museum. “(The event) has changed over the past 19 years to three days that we celebrate in October,” she added.

Hands-On-History Days, which were not held or were modified during the past two years due to COVID-19 restrictions, will return on Thursdays, Oct. 13, 20, and 27, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. each day. A per-person admission fee will be charged, but Landis Valley Associates

members may attend for free, as can children age 5 and under. Groups of 10 or more are required to make reservations prior to attending.

“The whole purpose is to have (the activities) be hands on,” said Brown, who noted that the events will be fall themed. One of the most popular places to visit is an authentic schoolhouse, where a lesson based on a fall poem will be taught. “We use McGuffey Readers and historic books for our lesson plan,” said Brown, who noted that the schoolhouse was donated and moved to the site from Snake Hill Road in Leola. “(Students) work with a slate and chalk, and they learn elocution, (through what) we call tongue twisters today,” she said.

Students will also have opportunities to take part in farm chores from the 1700s and 1800s. “They will stuff a mattress with straw, so they get a true feel for a lumpy mattress,” said Brown, who added that bedding was generally changed a couple times a year. “They will learn how laundry was done with a scrubbing board and the old-fashioneddryer called a clothesline,” she added. Students will also learn to build a snake fence, so named because of its zig-zag shape. “The bonus is those fences can be moved quickly,” explained Brown.

Local Artists Plan Exhibition

Mulberry Art Studios, 19-21 N. Mulberry St., Lancaster, will host a collaborative exhibition titled “Extreme Portraits” in October. Members of the public may meet the artists at a First Friday opening reception on Friday, Oct. 7, from 5 to 9 p.m.

The exhibition features portraits in various unusual and unique artistic styles from local artists Ryan Phillips, Douglas Anderson, Dustin Strickler, and Frederick D. Swarr.

Phillips, of Ephrata, draws inspiration from books, music, and films, as well as photographs from vacations. Portraits

of family and friends have become a favorite of his in the past few years. Acrylic, gouache, pencil, and oil paint, accompanied by a mixing of finishes and varnishes, are his preferred mediums.

Anderson is a multimedia artist who focuses on painting and printmaking using nature and people as his primary subjects. He uses various styles and often uses humor and social criticism as themes in his work. His work is in various public and private collections. He recently retired from

All About The Albatwitch

BY CATHY MOLITORIS

He looks sort of like a baby Bigfoot, and he’s rumored to live somewhere in the Columbia area. He also loves apples. He’s the Albatwitch, and he’ll be celebrated at the ninth annual Albatwitch Day, to be held on Saturday, Oct. 8. The festival will run from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. at Columbia River Park, 41 Walnut St.

“This is a multifaceted event,” said Rick Fisher, who is organizing the festival with Chris Vera. “There is so much happening.”

Although the official festival does not begin until 11 a.m., Vera noted that Ryan Sexton will be giving tours of the dungeon below the Columbia Market House, 15 S. Third St., from 9 a.m. to noon. “It’s a nice way to give people a taste of the Market House before they head to the river,” he stated.

The festival will feature speakers, authors, live music, vendors and more.

The Susquehanna National Heritage Area will offer free Wilderness Inquiry Canoemobile tours on the Susquehanna River from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., featuring a fleet of 24-foot, 10-passenger canoes.

Trolley tours will run throughout the day, giving participants a chance to hear some of the history of the area.

From 7 to 9 p.m., haunted trolley tours will be featured. “We’ll also have ‘Alba’ at the festival,” Vera said. “She’ll be dressed up like the Albatwitch, and she’ll carry a basket of apples. People can take selfies with her.”

Vera estimated there will be more than 50 vendors on-site for the festival,

featuring everything from handmade jewelry to food. “We’ll have a variety of nonprofits and organizations represented, including Raven Ridge Wildlife Center, which is always very popular,” said Fisher. “They’ll be bringing some of their animals.” The Indian Steps Museum will have a table, and the Lancaster PA Ghostbusters will be onsite. Local churches, including Holy Trinity Catholic Church and St. Paul’s Episcopal Church, will operate food stands. Live music will be performed by Dillweed, Stone Soup, Sound Method and Tang Moon.

Inside Columbia Crossing River Trails Center, a variety of speakers will present programs. Speakers will include Mary Fabian, founder of the Pennsylvania Bigfoot Project; Eric Altman, executive director of the PA Bigfoot Society; and Tim Renner, creator of the “Strange Familiars” podcast.

Vera noted that Albatwitch Day draws visitors from all over the East Coast, as far away as Virginia, New York and New Jersey. Proceeds from the event will benefit the Columbia Historic Preservation Society, located at 21 N. Second St.

“You’ll have a good time at this event,” Fisher said. “If you don’t want to learn more about the Albatwitch, you can listen to music or eat or shop or take a canoe ride or a trolley tour. There’s really something for everybody.”

Etiquette Workshop Slated

Lancaster Modern Etiquette will present Poised and Pretty, an etiquette series for girls in grades two through six. The workshop will be held on three consecutive Saturdays, Oct. 15, 22 and 29, from 2 to 4 p.m. at the INSPIRE Business Center, 228 N. Arch St., Lancaster.

In this series, young ladies will see the reasoning behind the training, they will see the benefits and have them explained in a way which they can understand.

The girls will have fun as they learn conversation skills, social skills, dining etiquette, first impressions and personal care information such as taking care of themselves.

Founded in 2020, Lancaster Modern Etiquette is dedicated to teaching the principles of proper etiquette, good manners and kindness. It aims to provide adults and children with polished social graces and the confidence to succeed in social and professional arenas.

The workshop will run for an hour and a half, and it will include a refreshment and a dining etiquette manual. Tickets are currently on sale. For more information or to enroll in the program, contact Annie Ahm Hartley, etiquette consultant at Lancaster Modern Etiquette, at 717-283-4596 or visit www.lancasteretiquette.com.

The inspiration for Strickler’s artwork comes from his interest in human behavior, observing and blending the worlds of music, movies, sports, and notable Lititz personalities. His work includes pen and ink, markers, colored pencil, and acrylic paint. Within each piece of artwork, there are underlying meanings that tell a story.

Swarr has exhibited his art in diverse venues since 1969 and has paintings in numerous permanent collections. Swarr also donates his artwork to nonprofit organizations for fundraising. His style of painting has evolved into a combination of impressionism and expressionism. Acrylic has always been the prevalent paint on his pallet.
