As the Rotary Club of Mount Joy approaches its 100th anniversary in 2026, the organization is preparing to mark that milestone with a project rooted in remembrance. The club has a long history of enhancing the town, from installing the Main Street clock to helping build Rotary Park and contributing significantly to the rebuild of Kids Joyland. Now, Rotarians are turning their efforts toward a project that carries deep local meaning: the creation of a Malmedy Massacre Memorial at Veterans War Memorial Park.
The memorial will honor the
more than 80 American soldiers who were executed during the Malmedy Massacre on Dec. 17, 1944, during the Battle of the Bulge. It will also pay special tribute to the 10 Lancaster County soldiers from Battery B of the 285th Field Artillery Observation
Battalion, among them Mount Joy’s own Harold Billow, the lastknown survivor of the World War II massacre, who passed away in 2022 at age 99.
“The Rotary Club of Mount Joy has always been committed to enhancing their local Mount Joy
A Christmas Table Open to
BY CAT SHANNON
The members of Cross Roads Church have a message for the community. “You don’t have to be alone on Christmas,” said Clare Funck. “Come and fellowship with us.”
Funck is one of the many volunteers who invite people to a free Christmas meal on Thursday, Dec. 25, at the church, 800 Donegal Springs Road, Mount Joy. The meal is available for dine-in and will be served from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.
The menu will feature all of the traditional holiday fare - turkey, stuffing, gourmet potatoes, green beans and a variety of desserts. Everything is donated and prepared by volunteers.
“When you come in the door, you’ll be greeted by a church member who will welcome you in,” said Kendric Bert, who is
Roaring Into the New Year for Veterans
BY CAT SHANNON
Every New Year’s Day, the roar of engines becomes a rallying cry for local veterans as hundreds of motorcycle riders hit the road for a cause. The tradition will continue on Thursday, Jan. 1, 2026, with the 17th annual benefit ride, an energetic kickoff to the year that blends camaraderie, charity and a 25-mile scenic convoy along the Susquehanna River.
Registration will begin at 10 a.m. at the Walter S. Ebersole American Legion Post 185, 255 W. Main St., Mount Joy. Riders will depart at 1 p.m., traveling the river route before ending at the Elizabethtown American Legion Post 329, 240 N. Hanover St.
Before the engines rev, members of the auxiliary will serve breakfast at the Mount Joy Legion. After the ride, participants can enjoy a pork and sauerkraut dinner at the Elizabethtown post.
Years ago, a group of friends got together and decided the best way to ring in the new year was by doing something they love - riding their motorcycles. They put together the event to raise funds for veterans at the Lebanon VA Medical Center.
“All of the money we raise goes directly to the veterans,” shared Michael Hehnly, finance officer for the Mount Joy American Legion. “They can use that money to buy hygiene items or other things they may need.”
Last year’s ride raised $40,000, he said. Over the years, the event has garnered almost $350,000 for veterans.
Even with its serious mission, the day is full of fun and fellowship. Each year, one participant

Ring in 2026 at Christ Lutheran Church
BY CAT SHANNON
On New Year’s Eve, you don’t have to wait until midnight to ring in 2026. Just head to Christ Evangelical Lutheran Church’s festivities, and celebrate at 7 p.m.
Welcome 2026 will be held on Wednesday, Dec. 31, from 4 to 7 p.m. at the church, 75 E. High St., Elizabethtown. The celebration will kick off with a chicken barbecue, available for dine-in or to go. Meals will include a half chicken, a baked potato, applesauce, a roll with butter and water. There is a charge for the barbecue meal.
Susquehanna Service Dogs will be on-site from 4 to 6 p.m. in the church parlor.
The timing is also good for families with young children who don’t want a late night out.
This is the 12th year Christ Lutheran Church has hosted the New Year’s Eve event, and Clark noted it takes a village to pull off a successful celebration.
“We couldn’t do this without the police, EMS and the fire department helping, as well as our volunteers and sponsors,” he said.
Hosting the event is important to the church, Anderson noted.
“It’s a huge community outreach for us,” she said. “We want everyone to come and have fun together.”
Clark emphasized all are invited to attend Welcome 2026.
Participants prepare for last year’s benefit ride.
is named Baby New Year and arrives in a baby costume and sash. This year’s honoree is Mike Kaylor.
Although motorcycles make up the majority of the convoy, the event is open to all types of vehicles, and no Legion affiliation is required for participants.
More than 450 people joined the ride last year, Michael said, noting that one of his favorite aspects of the event is experiencing the waves and shouts of encouragement from people who watch the convoy as it travels past their house along the route.
Local businesses also contribute to the event. Hummer’s Meats donates the post-ride meal, and Hummelstown Print House makes the event T-shirts.
said. “We’ll be collecting donations up until the day of the ride.”
For Michael and his wife, Lori, the ride is personal. Both are veterans, and both understand the importance of giving back. While Michael will ride in the convoy, Lori, who also rides, will not join the group that day but will instead help to prepare the post-meal activities at the Elizabethtown Legion.
“We do this ride in any kind of weather,” Michael said. “It’s a really fun tradition, but more importantly, it’s a way to support our veterans. They’ve given so much to us, and we just want to give back to them.”

“People can meet them and learn about what they do,” said pastor A.J. Domines. “They’ll have some ambassador animals here.”
From 4 to 6:30 p.m., a variety of activities for people of all ages will take place. Free hot dogs, soup and water will be served in the church social room. Bingo will be held in the Lutheran Lodge on-site. Free popcorn and hot chocolate will be available in a trailer outside the church, along with free s’mores in the church parking lot.
Just down the street, Winters Heritage House Museum will host children’s crafts and balloon twisting at 47 E. High St. from 4 to 6:30 p.m.
Local musician Corty Byron will perform from 4:30 to 5:15 p.m. in the newly renovated church sanctuary. A freewill offering will be received during his performance.
The festivities will conclude with a star raising and fireworks at 7 p.m. on the church lawn.
“It’s a really great fireworks show,” said Cammy Anderson, who is on the event committee. “It’s spectacular.”
The timing of the event is intentional, shared volunteer Phil Clark. “That’s when it’s midnight in Letterkenny, Ireland - 7 p.m.,” Clark said, noting that Letterkenny had been the sister city of Elizabethtown for many years before the partnership lapsed. Work is in progress to restore the relationship and rekindle the connection between the two towns.
“We also have a lot of Masonic Village residents and other older folks who come out, and they can have an early dinner and enjoy the evening and not be out until midnight,” Domines shared.
“Even though the church hosts it, it’s really a community event,” he said. “This is for everyone.”
Tickets for the chicken barbecue are on sale now at the church office, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Mondays through Thursdays and 9 a.m. to noon Fridays. Tickets will also be sold after Saturday and Sunday services, as well as at the door. Preorders are encouraged but not required.

community in the Rotary spirit of Service Above Self,” said Rotarian Dave Christian. “The club’s primary focus for the memorial is to tell the story of that horrific day, so it is never forgotten.”
The massacre unfolded on a bitterly cold morning near Malmedy, Belgium. An American convoy of about 30 vehicles unknowingly approached a crossroads from the east at the same moment a heavily armed German SS unit advanced from the west. Outgunned and forced to surrender, the Americans were gathered into a field, where, moments later, the German soldiers opened fire. Unarmed POWs were gunned down where they stood; some were shot at close range as they lay wounded. Only those who managed to feign death, including Cpl. Billow, survived long enough for the Germans to leave the area.
Five of the 10 Lancaster County soldiers present were killed that day. Sylvester Herchelroth of Marietta, Charles Haines of Columbia, George Steffy of Stevens, Luke Swartz of Stevens and Carl Frey of Hopeland all lost their lives. The
others - Billow, Bill Ream of Elizabethtown, Robert “Sketch” Mearig of Lititz, James Mattera of Marietta and Ernest Bechtel of Reinholdsreturned home after the war.
For decades, Billow honored his fallen comrades by displaying 87 American flags in his yard every Memorial Day, Veterans Day and Dec. 17. Those flags became a poignant personal ritual and now serve as the inspiration for the new community memorial.
“The inspiration for the memorial was heavily influenced by Eagle Scout Todjr Dohl of Mount Joy, who was designing a Malmedy memorial project several years back for his Eagle Scout project,” Christian said. “The Rotary Club of Mount Joy chose to give new life to Todjr’s vision, carrying forward most of his proposed design elements.”
The club’s proposed memorial incorporates symbolism in its central feature: a field of 87 miniature American flags, arranged exactly as Billow placed them each year. Set in river gravel and illuminated at night, the field will serve as a quiet but powerful reminder of the
soldiers lost at Malmedy. The flags will remain in place year-round, except during times of heavy snow.
A granite monument with a bronze plaque will stand beside the flag field, offering visitors a brief account of the Malmedy Massacre. A stone bench will provide a reflective space for those who wish to pause, remember or pray. The memorial area will be accessible by an ADA-compliant walkway and surrounded by plantings of red, white and blue flowers and several small flowering trees.
Community involvement is central to the project’s design. The walkway surrounding the memorial will be lined with donor-sponsored, laser-etched brick pavers. Individuals, families, organizations and businesses are invited to purchase a paver in honor of one of the Malmedy soldiers.
Ten larger brick pavers - each bearing the name of one of the Lancaster County soldiers present at Malmedy - are available for sponsorship. Sixteen additional pavers will display World War II service branch insignias, mottos
and Gold Star symbols honoring families who lost loved ones in the conflict.
The Rotary Club estimates the total cost of the memorial at $35,000 to $40,000. If fundraising progresses quickly, the goal is to complete and dedicate the site on Memorial Day 2026.
“If contributions exceed expectations, we hope to add a historical storyboard to the memorial space that would pictorially and descriptively convey the story of the Malmedy Massacre and the 10 Lancaster soldiers who were there,” Christian said.
Community support will be essential in bringing the project to life. Donations of any amount will help ensure that the memorial stands as a lasting tribute to the men who never returned home and as an educational reminder for future generations.

chairing the event. “You’ll go into the gym, and we’ll seat you for the meal.”
As Funck explained, people will be seated with others to encourage camaraderie.
“We try to fill the tables up,” she said. “That way, everyone has some fellowship. That’s really the goal of this meal, to encourage fellowship.”
Church member Joe McFarland originated the meal almost 30 years ago.
“There were a lot of places that did Thanksgiving meals, but at the time, there was nobody that had Christmas meals,” he recalled. “It’s such a special day, and there should be something for people who might be alone.”
He took the idea to the church members, who worried he’d have trouble finding volunteers on Christmas Day and instead encouraged him to hold the meal on Christmas Eve. The first meal was held on Dec. 24, with about 50 people attending.
The next year, Joe pushed for a Christmas Day meal, noting that it was important to him to have the
meal on the holiday.
“It’s been that way ever since,” he said. “We’ve never had an issue with volunteers. In fact, we’ve even had to turn some volunteers away, because we had enough.”
Although volunteers start as early as 6 a.m. and the day does not conclude until late afternoon, it’s become a tradition at the church, Joe said.
“The original purpose of this meal was for our community to enjoy fellowship on Christmas,” he said, noting that his family, including his wife, Ruth, have also helped with the event since the start. “It’s about sharing Christ’s love on such a special day.”
He’s also noticed that the meal has connected people far beyond a one-time experience.
“It’s about building relationships,” he said. “We have people that come back year after year after year. We look forward to seeing each other every year. That’s the neat part.”
For Bert, the meal provides an opportunity to bless others while counting his own blessings.
“It makes me thankful for what I
do have,” he said. “I do have family that’s close and can have a meal, but there are people that can’t do that, so this is a way to give back.”
Funck has participated as a volunteer for more than 20 years.
“I moved from New York, and my family was not in PA,” she said. “Joe approached me and asked if I’d like to help on Christmas Day, and with no family in the area, I felt like it was serving me as much as I was serving them. And that’s what Christmas is all about - helping others.”
While there is no charge for the meal, people may bring an item to donate to the Mount Joy Food Bank if they would like to, Joe said.
“There is no obligation to do that. This meal is our gift to the community,” he said. “We want to tell people, ‘Come join us on Christmas. Don’t stay home.’”
Reservations are requested but not required for the meal. To make a reservation, visit https:// crossroadsbic.com/christmas. Takeout meals may be available under special circumstances. To arrange for takeout, call the church at 717-653-1616.
