Cavod Artists Perform for God
BY JEFF FALK
Athankful heart is a happy heart. Cavod Performing Arts and Theatre has a lot to be grateful for.
The upcoming Day of Thanksgiving is an opportunity to take stock, count blessings and celebrate all of the people and things
that make Cavod, Cavod.
“Cavod means ‘glory of God’ in Hebrew, His majesty, His greatness,” said Connie Dienner, Cavod Peforming Arts’ founder and executive director. “Our goal is to bring glory to God through the arts. When people say it, they’re speaking the glory of God without even knowing it. We’re
here to celebrate and change the culture of the arts. This facility is for anyone and everyone.”
Located at 665 W. Main St., New Holland, Cavod Performing Arts will host its 10th annual Day of Thanksgiving on Friday, Nov. 7. It’s a day of online giving that is topped off by a celebration of the arts from 6 to 10 p.m., an

Take a Trolley Ride to a Time Long Ago
BY JEFF FALK
An early form of public transportation, trolleys played an essential role in the development of Lancaster County socially, economically and culturally. The freedom of movement that trolleys provided laid the foundation for exchanges of ideas and the proliferation of creativity, as well as practical applications of resource management.
Stan Bowman fondly remembers his rides on trolley cars, and through those memories he has become
an unofficial expert on the 20thcentury mode of transportation.
“I grew up in Delaware County, and Philadelphia had more trolleys than any other city in the country,” said Bowman. “They were a lot of fun to ride. It was like riding a miniature railroad. It came close to where you lived, and a lot of them were high speed. A lot of people remember trolleys.”
Trolleys and, to a lesser degree, trains will be the topics of Bowman’s rail transportation seminar at 7 p.m. on Wednesday, Nov. 5,
College Night Can Be Portal to Brighter Futures
BY JEFF FALK
It seems a lot to ask 17- and 18-year-olds to make highereducation decisions that will affect the rest of their lives, that will shape the directions of their existences. But College Night can help by providing options, clearing up misconceptions and sparking new possibilities.
An informed decision is a smart decision.
“It helps kids from all over Lancaster County and beyond to be able to have direct interaction with colleges, trade schools and the military,” said Barbara McDaniel, a counseling office administrative assistant at Conestoga Valley High School (CVHS) who’s been coordinating College Night for 27 years. “It gives them a little bit of the atmosphere of what college is like. It helps students decide which path is best for them.”
Located at 2110 Horseshoe Road, Lancaster, CVHS will host this year’s edition of its annual College Night inside Rill Gymnasium from 6 to 8 p.m. on Monday, Nov. 3. The event is free to attend and open to all high school students across Lancaster County.
“It’s so awesome,” said McDaniel. “Tables are set up in alphabetical order, and there are a lot of people. When I talk to parents and students, I get compliments about the flow. Students can see what a college represents or if they have the major they are interested in. It’s a busy night, but when six o’clock hits and I open the doors and see the students come in, that’s my favorite part.”
Stan Bowman enjoys sharing what he knows about trolleys

Representatives from more than 125 colleges, universities, technical schools, business schools and branches of the armed forces will be present on College Night. The event will also offer a pair of informative, educational seminars titled “How To Choose a College” and “Financial Aid.”
“I don’t think (higher education) is for everybody,” said McDaniel. “I think times are changing. If you’re not ready to do it now, we have kids who take gap years. I think it’s important to at least come to College Night. It’s important to determine what’s the best road for you. It’s not wrong not to go to a four-year college. It’s a lot of money these days.”
“There are students who know exactly what they want to do,” she added. “For those who don’t, that’s why there are counselors; that’s why there are parents. There are counselors who can guide them toward their futures.”
More than 2,000 individuals from Lancaster County public and private high schools - students, parents and family members - are expected to attend College Night at CVHS. The event is designed for seniors, juniors and 10th-graders.
“They’re college-bound students,” said McDaniel. “They’re trade schoolbound students. We don’t just get the four-year college students. It’s a lot of juniors and some seniors who are on the fence. A lot
“It’s the biggest (college fair) in the county,” added McDaniel. “Other schools participate, and they send their students to us. They love that we do it and everybody can come. We send (invitations) to all the schools in Lancaster County, public and private, indicating when it will be. We try to reach as far as we can go.”
Established in 1975, College Night at CVHS is celebrating 50 years of providing guide rails for the futures of thousands of Lancaster County high school students.
“It was probably on a lower scale when it first started and just got bigger and bigger,” said McDaniel. “I do think College Night sticks with what people know and with what people expect and with what works well. We keep it simple. We’ve seen different colleges come in, and some colleges come back every year. It’s a consistent fair, and I like it that way. I think we have a good reputation. When people walk in the door, things are easy to find.”
“College Night is a wonderful event,” McDaniel continued. “It’s not only for our community in Conestoga Valley; it’s for everyone in Lancaster County. It’s a way for students to interact with representatives from colleges and trade schools. It helps them get a feel for what colleges have to offer. It’s a quick interaction, but it’s a meaningful interaction.”
Interested individuals interact with representatives of higher-education institutions at a past College Night at Conestoga Valley High School.
Love of Film Will Unite Buffs at Red Rose Festival
BY JEFF FALK
Technically, films combine elements of images, motion, dialogue, ideas and music. It’s a combination of sensory stimuli that can evoke strong emotions and transport viewers to different places and times.
Ryan Shank, the founder of the Red Rose Film Festival, has been theatrically transported on many different occasions.
“(Films are) an escape,” said Shank. “I’ve always loved stories. I grew up on Ninja Turtles, and I also grew up on ‘Jaws.’ I love to laugh. It’s almost like therapy in a way. I’d rather listen to a story and relate to it than talk about myself.”
This year’s edition of Shank’s annual Red Rose
Viewers screen a presentation at last year’s Red Rose Film Festival.
Film Festival will be staged on four days, from Thursday, Nov. 6, to Sunday, Nov. 9. The festival will include screenings of 60 films - feature-length movies, documentaries and shorts - from 20 countries, as well as a pair of formal gatherings.
On Nov. 6, the event will kick off with a welcome party from 5 to 9 p.m. at
Zoetropolis Cinema Stillhouse, 112 N. Water St., Lancaster. Then, on Saturday, Nov. 8, the local film festival will present special awards at a gala from 6 to 10 p.m. at Penn Cinema IMAX, 541 Airport Road, Lititz.
“The welcome party is just that,” said Shank, a 2004 graduate of Lancaster

Trolleys
at the Terre Hill Community Center, 131 W. Main St., Terre Hill. Bowman’s program is sponsored by the Terre Hill Area Historical Society and is free to attend.
“From an historic standpoint, trolleys developed (the Lancaster County area) and the land outside the city,” said Bowman. “There were all these farms outside the city, and people moved to them. Special trolley lines were built so (individuals) could get back to Lancaster.”
Bowman’s talk on the impact of trolleys and trains on Lancaster County in the early 1900s will last about 40 minutes. The presentation will be heavily influenced by black-and-white and some color photographs, and the seminar will be interactive in nature.
“The main thing is going to be the photos,” said Bowman, a resident of Thorndale in Chester County. “What will happen is the pictures will be projected on a screen with a
digital slideshow, and I’ll be explaining them. They’re all old, excellent photos that have been scanned.”
“Anyone who wants to make a remark can make a remark at any time,” he continued. “I’m the communicator. I’m telling the people where the shot is located and with some of them, what is there now.”
More than 140 people are expected to attend Bowman’s presentation - local history buffs and local residents with a general curiosity in history.
“They’re local people who are interested in history,” said Bowman of those who typically attend his programs. “In the Terre Hill area, they really go after the trolleys. They especially like rail transportation.”
“I want to show people the trolleys that used to run in Lancaster County,” added Bowman. “The feature of it will be the Ephata to Lancaster line. But there was also a New Holland to Terre Hill line.”

in-person event that will feature free pizza, free drinks, periodic interpretative performances, a DJ-inspired dance party, a disco ball and an hour of worship. For more information or to donate, go to www .cavod.org.
“The whole goal is to raise funds for Cavod,” said Dienner. “We are so grateful. We wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for donations. It’s just really a community celebration where we come together and celebrate the arts. There’s so much to celebrate.”
“The atmosphere is electric; it’s fun,” Dienner added. “I just like seeing the kids, the teens and the youth have a lot of fun. I love seeing the way they come and worship the Lord together. It’s a place where kids can come that’s safe and fun.”
Organizers of the Day of Thanksgiving are hoping to raise $80,000 for Cavod’s creative and inspiring work. Cavod Academy of the Arts employs 24 staff members and relies heavily on the contributions of volunteers.
“We’re funded through the community, through sponsors and through
The popularity of trolleys in Lancaster County coincided with the Industrial Revolution in the late 1800s and early 1900s. By the end of World War II, that popularity began to wane.
“(Trolleys) went everywhere,” said Bowman. “There was a line to Lititz. There was a line to Manheim. There was a line to Quarryville. There was a line to Columbia. At one time back in the 1920s, the lines radiated from the city of Lancaster like spokes on a wheel. During the teens and ‘20s and up until the Great Depression was the heyday of trolleys.”
“Before that, stagecoaches were the first form of public transportation,” Bowman continued. “There was the railroad from Philadelphia to Lancaster before the trolleys, but it was very limited. Most of those county lines were abandoned in 1932. Before roads got paved and people got automobiles, trolleys helped people get to parks, they helped people

tuition,” said Dienner. “Twenty-five percent of our budget is funded through donations and the community. That’s why we can offer such great classes, awesome teachers and a beautiful facility.”
Cavod Performing Arts operates facilities at two locations - in New Holland and at 1223 Lancaster Road in Suite 115 in the Penn Towne Center shopping center in Manheim.
Cavod’s immaculate New Holland headquarters features offices, four performing arts studios, a costume shop, music rooms, a playroom and a café. The organization also operates the 200-seat Cavod Theatre two doors down from its offices.
“Art teaches our students to discipline,” said Dienner, a resident of Leola. “It brings out creativity and an understanding of who they are. If they never pick up the arts again, I think they’ll be better citizens and people because of (having been involved). It’s hard work. You don’t learn to perform overnight.”
Cavod offers classes and instruction for students and adults in the arts of dance, music and theater. Cavod
to get to recreation. What killed the trolleys in later years was the automobile.”
Before retiring, Bowman taught mathematics for 34 years at Conestoga High School in Berwyn. In college, he majored in math and minored in history.
“Generally speaking, the audience really enjoys (the seminar),” said Bowman. “Some of the members tell stories about when they were young. I want people to come and see it. I hope people will be interested and want to come. When they enjoy it, I enjoy it.”
Performing Arts stages seven public shows annually, including its upcoming holiday production of “White Christmas” on Fridays, Dec. 5 and 12; Saturdays, Dec. 6 and 13; and Sundays, Dec. 7 and 14.
Cavod embodies its motto, “Create With Purpose.”
“Hopefully, people are inspired, encouraged and they’ll see the value of the arts,” said Dienner.
“We have people coming from all over, from as far as Reading, York, Oxford, Chester County and Willow Street,” Dienner continued. “We have families who will drive over an hour just because they want an atmosphere like this.”
Cavod Performing Arts was founded in 2004.
“My daughter (Tahnya) and I felt like we wanted to create a space where we could teach classes with excellence and with wonderful costumes,” said Dienner. “We thought, ‘What if we could create a space where we could merge the glory of God and excellence together?’ We really wanted to tie Christianity into the arts. We are creating with purpose, and we’ve grown in community and support.”

“The highlight of the festival should be the works,” continued Shank.

The 60 films that the Red Rose Film Festival will feature were selected from a group of 200 submissions. Each film was viewed by five judges from a panel of 50 and then was assigned a rating from 1 to 10 based on 10 criteria.
The majority of the films that will be screened at the festival received ratings of 8 or higher.
Among the movies that will be presented are a film called “Adamstown,” which was produced by Lancaster-based Rwandan filmmaker Andrew Bilindabagabo, and “Keep Quiet and Forgive,” which was produced and directed by Lancaster cinematographer Sarah McClure.
In 2023, it was estimated that 9,500 films were produced around the world.
“They’re thoughts and ideas that people have the courage to put on the screen,” said Shank. “How many ideas are there? How many thoughts do you have in a day?”
“Lancaster and central Pennsylvania are underrepresented in the film community,” he added. “Our goal is to advocate for the filmmakers. But we’re more an extension of tour-
“Our biggest audiences are the filmmakers and their families,” said Shank, a resident of Marietta. “People who support the arts are typically 55 and older who want to send the elevator back down. They want to have conversations with these filmmakers, and those conversations matter. That’s what this platform provides. This is why we’re here.”
Through his creative passion for films, Shank established the Red Rose Film Festival in 2019.
“We technically copied an idea for a film festival from Dubuque, Iowa,” said Shank. “The Julien Dubuque International Film Festival is one of the top-rated film festivals in the country. They focus more on tourism than filmmaking. I was like, ‘Why don’t we have this in Lancaster? Let’s take Lancaster’s love of Lancaster and create a film festival.’ Lancaster loves Lancaster.”
“It keeps me in proximity of an industry for which I chose Lancaster over Los Angeles,” Shank continued. “I didn’t want that life, and now I’m very fulfilled. I didn’t need fame to fulfill my dream. The Red Rose Film Festival has become my platform. This is my way to be connected to artists and filmmakers.”
