n September 11, 2001, four commercial airliners were hijacked in a planned attack against the United States. Two airliners were flown into the World Trade Center Twin Towers and a third aircraft into the Pentagon. A fourth aircraft, United Airlines Flight 93, crashed into an open field in the Laurel Highlands near the small town of Shanksville, after the passengers and crew stormed the cockpit to derail the plane from its intended target, Washington, D.C. Established by President George W. Bush in September 2002, the Flight 93 National Memorial is a serene place of remembrance and honor. Visitors can take a self-guided tour of the Visitor Center, which houses a chronological display of the day’s events with artifacts from the crash, flight paths and information about the flight and its passengers. Near the

Memorial Plaza stands The Wall of Names, a white marble wall positioned on the flight path and engraved with each hero’s name. But the memorial isn’t complete yet.

The final phase of the memorial, the Tower of Voices, will be unveiled in September 2018. At 93 feet tall, the tower will act as a living memorial, representing the eternal voices of the 40 passengers and crew members, containing 40 uniquely pitched wind chimes that will vary in sizes of 10, 8 and 6 feet.

Visitors to the memorial will be able to see the Tower of Voices from Route 30 upon arrival.

Whether your visit serves as a pilgrimage, a patriotic rite of passage or a historical and educational experience, one thing is for certain, the Flight 93 National Memorial is incredibly thought-provoking and emotionally powerful. The memorial is open from sunrise to sunset year-round, including all holidays.

SPEND THE DAY Visit Pennsylvania’s largest state park, Ohiopyle, which features 80 miles of hiking and biking trails, a 30-foot waterfall and some of the best whitewater rafting in the eastern United States.

T

he Palace Theatre, located in downtown Greensburg, opened in 1926 during the peak of vaudeville as the Manos Theatre. Fast forward 92 years, and there are still many remnants of the original theatre’s French renaissance-style structure in place. The goldfish pond of mosaic tile and murals are still present, but the most remarkable feature is the golden marble ticket booth.

SummerSounds is a series of free outdoor concerts in downtown Greensburg’s beautiful St. Clair Park. The music varies from rock to R&B to country.

SAINT VINCENT SUMMER THEATRE will be celebrating its 50th season in 2018! Not only has Summer Theatre put on a wide range of popular productions, but the program also gives college students the opportunity to work with theatre professionals.

he Great Allegheny Passage is celebrating 40 years in 2018! What started as just a small bike trail between two charming Laurel Highlands towns has grown into a phenomenon that has beckoned bikers and hikers from all over the world.

Along the way, explore charming trail towns with rich histories, friendly residents and helpful visitor centers.

Put your kick stand down, eat a great meal, shop, enjoy community events and attractions or call it a day at a nearby quaint bed and breakfast or hostel.

The fourth longest rail-trail in the U.S., which once felt the heavy rumble of freight trains, the Great Allegheny Passage (GAP) stretches 150 miles from Pittsburgh, through the Laurel Highlands and finally to Cumberland, Md. There, the GAP connects with the C&O Canal Towpath, extending all the way to the Georgetown district of Washington, D.C., for a total length of 334.5 miles.

A trip on the GAP doesn’t come without a view. You will see beautiful waterfalls, stunning gorges, windmills dotting the hillside and native wildlife. Keep your eye out for bald eagles, osprey and red-tailed hawks, they have been spotted from the trail!

The GAP offers easy rides and walks for hikers, bikers, birdwatchers, couples and families with baby strollers. Gear up for a long-haul adventure or pick a section and bike from town to town for shorter family-friendly trips.

Don’t forget your camera; there are plenty of photo ops along the trail. Take a selfie at the Eastern Continental Divide, the Pinkerton High Bridge and Low Bridge or the 101-foot-high Salisbury Viaduct.

7 TIPS WHEN HIKING & BIKING IN THE LAUREL HIGHLANDS, DON’T FORGET

CELL PHONE coverage is often limited in parks, so always bring a paper map WEAR comfortable, sturdy shoes PACK plenty of water and snacks Hiking and biking is more fun with A FRIEND STAY ON THE TRAIL TAKE ONLY PHOTOS, leave only footprints.

Keep the Laurel Highlands beautiful!

Speaking of photos, use #LAURELHIGHLANDS when posting to social media. We love seeing your adventures!

The Laurel Highlands Hiking Trail is a 70-mile backpacking and hiking trail, stretching from Ohiopyle State Park to the Conemaugh Gorge near Johnstown. On your journey, you will see beautiful wildflowers, large rock formations and maybe even a white-tailed deer. You can start from anywhere, and regardless of where you start, you will find an overnight area every 8 to 10 miles, where you can rest and recharge among the towering trees with fresh water and shelter. Where there is a shelter, there is a connector trail, marked with blue blazes, that leads to and from a parking area. Pick a weekend and try to tackle as many miles as you can.

I

f you’re looking to solve a brain game or relieve some stress, the Laurel Highlands has a few unique places for you to do so.

Life can be stressful, but Valhalla Indoor Axe Throwing is the perfect place to blow off some steam. Yes, you read that correctly, axe throwing! You can rent a lane for up to six throwers for an hourly rate and the Viking “axeperts” will be there to teach you the art of axe throwing. You can even host an axe throwing party where you can practice and then compete with your group!

Have a smashing good time at Break Room Therapeutic Demolition.

Here, you will have the option to enter the break room alone or with up to 29 friends.

Pick the tools you want to use and the items that you want to break. Or you can bring your own stuff to break!

HUSTON’S HAUNTED HOLLOW

is an attraction only for the brave. Visit the traveling circus that resides in the barn, take a haunted hayride, walk through the swamp full of monsters, then finally make your way through the Dead End Cornfield.

OUTDOOR ADVENTURE

By now, you’ve probably heard of escape rooms. Have you tried one yet? Our region has a ton of them! Escape rooms are great for team building and date night fun. Each has its own theme and storyline. For instance, 60 Minute Missions has a room for sports fans called Penalty Box. If you like Disney, you have to try Diversion Escape Room’s Alice in Wonderland themed room! Escape Reality features a room about a college professor’s life-changing discovery.

If you like unexplainable, weird attractions, the Laurel Highlands will not disappoint.

The Kecksburg UFO incident is probably the most popular of the region.

88

On Dec. 9, 1965, Kecksburg residents reported that a fireball streaked through the sky and then an object showed up in the nearby woods. Conspiracy theories are still being thrown around today as to what really happened. The local newspapers reported on it, a documentary called “Invasion on Chestnut Ridge� was recently released and eyewitnesses still swear by what they saw that night.

Today, the Laurel Highlands celebrates its paranormal past with events like an annual UFO Festival, obviously held in Kecksburg, with guest speakers and plenty of costumes. Was it aliens, a meteor or something else entirely? We may never know.
