Shortly after Bryant Glick worked with Linda Dibartolo and Bill Heagy to organize the first Pickin’ in the Park event in Terre Hill in May, he began looking forward to the next one. “ With the success of (the) spring (event), a number of people encouraged us to try to do another one this fall,” said Glick, who connected with New Holland Ambulance Association’s EMS chief, Darrell Fisher, to make the organization the beneficiary of the event. The second Pickin’ in the Park, which will include steak and chili cook-offs, public safety vehicles and New Holland first responders, food vendors, and live music, will be held in the New Holland Memorial Community Park, in the 400 block of Jackson Street, New Holland, on Saturday, Nov. 6, from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Admission is free, and the event will be held rain or shine. In a change from spring, the fall event will be about first responders and public safety with a family friendly focus similar to a touch-atruck event. “All the (local) emergency services will be involved,” said Fisher, who noted that New Holland
The New Holland Area Historical Society will present “A Conversation With Benjamin Franklin - Patriot and Diplomat” on Thursday, Oct. 21. The program will be held in
the chapel at Garden Spot Village, 433 S. Kinzer Ave., New Holland, at 7 p.m. The program is open to the public. Masks must be worn for this indoor event.
