W
e plan well in advance for each issue, so it happened that I found myself introducing our fall issue on one of the hottest days of summer. I was thinking about all the celebrations and events that were winding down regarding the 150th anniversary of the Battle of Gettysburg. How was it, I thought, that we don’t know all there is to know about something that happened 150 years ago? Wasn’t that more than enough time to learn all there is to know? How could an event that happened this long ago still be so interesting and continue to provide new details and insights? And then I thought… if this 150-yearold event still moves us, just think how much more there is to discover right in our own backyards! Local and statewide events are continually reinventing themselves to stay exciting. New businesses are opening their doors to welcome our curiosity and adventuresome spirits. Existing businesses are continually evolving to meet demand. Martin Guitar, which set up shop in 1833, is a perfect example. Barely in existence when the Civil War began, they survived it and many other economic, political and social disruptions and continue to thrive today! And then, another thought…what drives these changes? That’s simple… the PEOPLE behind the events and businesses we visit and enjoy. Because of these people, every experience, whether we go to the same event year after year or try something new, will be different and exciting every time! Suddenly, the heat is the farthest thing from my mind. I’m already picturing myself in a sweater with itinerary in hand. The stories are ever changing, and I can’t wait to meet the people and experience the fun that’s out there waiting for me. I’ll see you there!

CENTENNIAL CELEBRATIONS for TWO of
PAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Outdoor Favorites Two very significant events are celebrating 100-year anniversaries this year. Though they individually have nothing to do with each other, they have a great deal in common. Both have contributed to the outdoors and wildlife enthusiasm for Pennsylvania.
Pine Grove Furnace State Park More than a century before the land designated as Pine Grove Furnace State Park was preserved as an outdoor recreation destination, the land had a much different purpose. In 1764, the Pine Grove Ironworks was built along Mountain Creek in Cumberland County. The iron furnace supplied cannon balls for the

Revolutionary War. For decades the furnace prospered under ironmaster Peter Ege, who inherited the iron plantation from his father. In 1829, Ege built an ironmasterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mansion on the property from bricks made on site. In addition to being the home of the ironmaster, in later years the mansion served as a stop along the Underground Railroad. In 1913, the 17,000acre property was sold to the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Today, Pine Grove Furnace State Park encompasses 696 acres at the northern tip of the Blue Ridge Mountains in an area known as South Mountain, while much of the acreage is Michaux State Forest. Throughout 2013, special centennial events have taken place to commemorate the 100th anniversary of

this land being turned over for public use. Two events will occur this fall. On Saturday, Sept. 14, the Pine Grove Furnace Super Hike will be held. The event challenges participants to hike all of the trails in the park in one day. For those who prefer a shorter distance, the super hike will be divided into two hikes. Those who want to cover all the trails should participate in both hikes. The Fall Furnace Fest will be held on Saturday and Sunday, Oct. 26 and 27. This family-friendly event will feature historic demonstrations, crafts, live entertainment, apple cider making, delicious food, pumpkin carving, hayrides and lots more.
Park Features: The recently renovated Ironmaster’s Mansion is now a popular venue for weddings, meetings and training events. The mansion also serves as a 28-bed hostel. Since the halfway point of the Appalachian Trail is located within Pine Grove Furnace State Park, the facility’s convenient location and modest rate is ideal for hikers. The Appalachian Trail Museum is located about 2 miles from the midpoint of the Appalachian Trail. The museum houses artifacts owned by hiking pioneers, photos and a children’s discovery area. Across from the museum is the
Pine Grove General Store. The store has become an Appalachian Trail thru-hiker tradition. Many stop to celebrate reaching the midway point by attempting to eat a half gallon of ice cream before continuing on their journey. The park’s two lakes, Laurel and Fuller, are open for fishing and swimming, while Laurel Lake also welcomes boating. Great trout fishing is also available in Mountain Creek. Of course, hiking and biking within the park are very popular with outdoor enthusiasts. Whether you are on a hike or atop the Pole Steeple Vista, Pine Grove Furnace State Park offers visitors picturesque views. The eastern part of the park and the surrounding Michaux State Forest can be viewed from the Pole Steeple Vista overlook. There are tent and trailer camp sites available from late March through mid-December. The furnace’s historic paymasters office has been converted into a modern cabin that sleeps six and is available for rent year-round. Free Kayaking for Beginners is one of the educational programs offered by the park.

Elk Herd Restoration in PA The Pennsylvania Wilds are known for beautiful vistas, charming towns, endless outdoor recreation and – in pockets of the region – the distinct bugle of elk. Centuries ago, Eastern elk roamed throughout Pennsylvania, but the colonization of European settlers led to the demise of the majestic creature. By the mid-1800s, the herd had been isolated to an area in Elk and Cameron Counties, and by the 1870s, the native elk had been completely wiped out. The formation of the State Game Commission in 1895 led to efforts to protect the Photo courtesy of PA Great Outdoors Visitors Bureau
remaining wildlife population in Pennsylvania. And, in 1912, talks began about reintroducing elk back into PA. While Pennsylvania officials were deciding how to bring back the elk, the federal government was dealing with a burgeoning elk population in Yellowstone National Park and the Jackson Hole Wildlife Refuge Area. Rather than sanctioning a hunt, officials decided to relocate some of the animals to other regions of the country. In 1913, Pennsylvania’s first 50 Yellowstone elk arrived by train. Clinton and Clearfield counties divided the first herd, but later shipments were given to six other counties. Still, the new elk seemed to migrate to Elk and Cameron counties, where the native elk herd made its last stand a century earlier. In the last 100 years the herd has had its ups and downs, not because of its ability to thrive but due to man’s ability to coexist with the elk. In the past two decades, the Commonwealth has made great strides in managing the herd and its habitat.
10 - Where and When Fall 2013
Today, the Yellowstone elk can be found in Elk, Cameron, McKean, Potter, Clinton, Clearfield and Centre counties. Benezette, Elk County, seems to be the herd’s core location and offers the best viewing opportunities. In September 2010, the Elk Country Visitor Center opened in an effort to preserve Pennsylvania’s elk herd through education and an enhanced viewing experience. The center sits on 245 acres on Winslow Hill in Benezette, home of the largest elk herd in the northeastern U.S. The 8,400-square-foot eco-friendly building offers panoramic views of the elk. The interior of the lodge features a stone fireplace and 4-D theater as well as hands-on exhibits. Outside, visitors stroll along three observation trails with interpretive displays. The wheelchair-accessible trails lead guests to viewing areas where they can see the elk without the elk realizing they are being watched. The Elk Country Visitor Center also offers horse-drawn wagon and sleigh (when snow is on the ground) rides. For more information on the Elk Country Visitor Center, log on to whereandwhen.com and click on the article link. According to the PA Great Outdoors Visitors Bureau, which represents Elk, Cameron, Jefferson, Clarion and Forest counties, there are approximately 800 free-roaming elk in Pennsylvania today. On the bureau’s website,
According to the PA Great Outdoors Visitors Bureau, which represents Elk, Cameron, Jefferson, Clarion and Forest counties, there are approximately 800 free-roaming elk in Pennsylvania today. www.visitpago.com, visitors will find resources that will increase their chances of seeing elk, including the Elk Scenic Drive map and an elk viewing guide. When is the best time to view the Pennsylvania elk herd? According to the Keystone Elk Country Alliance, most visitors come to see the elk in September and October, but during the late fall and winter months is when you will see larger herds. Upwards of 150 elk can be seen at one time from November through February. If you want to see a newborn elk calf or a bull elk in velvet, visit elk country during May, June and July. What better way to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the repopulation of Elk in PA than by making a trip to elk country? No matter when you go, the trip will surely be worth your while. A colorful palette awaits visitors this fall, but no matter when you go, you will not be disappointed. For lodging information, log on to visitpago.com.

Though legendary artists Johnny Cash, Elvis Presley and Bob Dylan have owned Martin guitars, this 180-year-old iconic brand is more than a
blast from the past. Musicians like Feist, Hunter Hayes and members of Mumford & Sons, We Are Augustines and the Lumineers aren’t just Martin owners, they are current Martin Guitar Ambassadors. And the list goes on. The artists included on the brand’s Signature Model Series guitars read like a “Who’s Who” of celebrated musicians, from Eric Clapton and Beck to John Mayer and Tom Petty. That’s a lot of name-dropping! So how does a company stay at the top of its game for so long? It’s pretty straightforward - C.F.

Martin set up his guitar shop in New York City. Not satisfied with life in the city, he moved on to Nazareth, Pa., in 1835. Since then, the Lehigh Valley has been home for six generations of Martins who have dedicated their lives to perfecting the craftsmanship of their products. Continuous operation under family management is a feat rarely seen today. Current president and CEO Chris Martin IV explains his recipe for success, saying, “We have an obligation to build every guitar as if it was the best one we were ever going to make.” Not only does Martin Guitar take its commitment to quality seriously, but also its commitment to the environment. Martin maintains the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) Chain of Custody Certification. Being FSC® certified means the guitar maker with one of the highest environmental standards on the market.

It’s the guitar of choice for bluegrass and folk music. Perfect for the intermediate and advanced player. Perhaps Johnny Cash’s favorite guitar was a specially made D-35 with a polished black finish. Cash played this guitar on stage for nearly 20 years.

N If you’d like to experience C.F. Martin craftsmanship firsthand, a visit to the Northampton County manufacturer is a must. Visitors are invited to take a guided tour of the factory floor Monday through Friday from 11 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Guests will follow the craftsmanship of a C.F. Martin Guitar Company guitar from a rough piece of lumber to the finished product. The tours are offered free of charge and are held on a first-come, first-served basis. Reservations are required for groups of 10 or more, and group tours are conducted between 8 and 10:30
a.m. for a small fee. Your guided tour will begin at the Visitors Center, where you will have an opportunity to take a walk through history in the Martin Guitar Museum.

hat is it about Pennsylvania and festivals? It seems like every time you turn around there’s another festival. Here in PA we’ll basically use any excuse to celebrate, from Phoenixville’s quirky Blobfest to the Rain Day Festival in Waynesburg. That’s right, we have an outdoor festival celebrating the one thing you don’t want the day of a festival – rain. There is a community history to both of these festivals. In fact, history is the reason for most of the festivals in Pennsylvania. One particularly popular type of event in PA is the folk festival, which literally means the celebration of a group of people. The Springs Historical Society has been celebrating the contributions made by the community’s forefathers for 56 years. Springs is a small town in Somerset Coun-

ty, located between Meyersdale, Pa., and Grantsville, Md., along the Mason Dixon Highway (Route 219). The earliest European settlers who came to the area were the Swedes, but by far the largest groups of immigrants to the area were German and Scottish. The 2013 Springs Folk Festival will be held on Friday and Saturday, Oct. 4 and 5. As in years past, the history, traditions, food and music of these early settlers will take center stage. Everyday life of years past will be depicted through grain threshing, log hewing, bread baking and weaving demonstrations. Bluegrass, gospel and a

with e the Folks cappella music will fill the air as children experience the simple pleasure of an old-fashioned hayride. A huge draw to the Springs Folk Festival is the authentic Pennsylvania Dutch (German) food. Favorites such as PA Dutch sausage, bean soup, homemade bread, freshly made doughnuts, kettle corn and homemade ice cream are back again this fall to the delight of attendees who make this festival an annual family tradition. Each year the festival welcomes juried artisans who showcase their talents ranging from basketry and furniture making to quilting and painting. This year
the festival will feature more than 140 skilled artisans demonstrating their trades. Since the festival is located at the historical society grounds, visitors should take the opportunity to visit the Springs Museum, where a bounty of the regionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s history can also be experienced.
