Mitch Dissinger, co-founder and vice president of the New Holland Area Historical Society, says, “My love for local history started when I was a teenager. My first job was at Stauffer’s Drug Store. On Saturday afternoons, when it was slow, Mr. Stauffer would ask me to go up into the attic to get a box of old photos. He would start going through them and I would sit and ask questions. As it turns out, Mr. Stauffer was the first person in New Holland to have a camera. He took pictures of everything. Today those photos are a gold mine of local history.”
This early inspiration, plus his dad’s collection of historic New Holland memorabilia, inspired Mitch to start his own collection. He attended public auctions and garage sales. When he got word that someone was throwing out old items, he would go dumpster diving.
In 2003, Mitch and Steve Loewen, another New Holland businessman, started a committee to celebrate New Holland’s 275th birthday. When the celebration was over, they began to talk about how they could establish a historical society. They pulled together like-minded members of the community and started meeting. In 2007, an anonymous donation allowed the organization to acquire a 501(c)3. Today, the New Holland Area Historical Society works to collect, organize and preserve information and historical materials that provide insight into understanding the life and times of the New Holland area, and to share these finds with others through museum exhibits, lectures and educational outreach programs.
The Historical Society operates a museum located on the second floor of the historic Kauffman’s Hardware building located at 207 East Main Street in New Holland. Mitch coordinates educational programs, which are open to the public and hosted at Garden Spot Village on the third Thursday evening, February through May, September and October.
“I am always on the lookout for programs that I think are interesting or appealing. I try to get programs about local history—either Lancaster County or New Holland—if I can,” Mitch says. As the owner of Lickity Split, he visits with his customers and often connects with program ideas that way.
• Thursday, March 16, 7pm, Chapel: Brett Snyder, a local historian, will share the life story of H. Clifton Thorbahn. Brett says, “I’m working to revive interest in H. Clifton Thorbahn’s importance to Lancaster County, based on his own scrapbook - as a Jazz music pioneer, writer, historian, teacher, editor, publisher and tourism promoter.”
• Thursday, April 20, 7pm, Chapel: Matthew Christopher, creator of the Abandoned America website, podcast and book series, will take us on a journey through some of America’s most haunting ruins.

When dealing with something as hard and unpredictable as grief, having access to information, facts and theories can be useful. While no “model” will ever make grieving easier, learning about grief engages your mind and your heart in a different way.
During these three sessions we will loosely look at Worden’s Task Model for Grief, tackling a new topic each week: considering the reality of your loss, processing your pain, and finding hope as you adjust to your world.

National Nutrition Month is a nutrition education and information campaign celebrated throughout the month of March by the American Dietetic Association. The campaign focuses on the importance of making informed choices and developing sound eating and physical activity habits. You’re never too busy to enjoy nutritious meals built around whole grains, fruits, vegetables and low-fat dairy. For protein, focus on beans, fish, lean meat and poultry. When eating out, practice portion control by ordering the smallest size, splitting an entrée with a friend, or taking a portion of it home with you. Avoid eating food directly from its packaging; you’ll eat more without even realizing it. Don’t multitask while eating, sit down at the table and focus on what you are eating, making sure to savor every bite.
