Ephrata-Reading Elks to Host Annual Flag Day Event

BY LOGAN MOYER

F l a g Day i s a n i m p o r t a n t moment of remembrance in the United States, especially for those who fought for it.

T h e E p h rat a - R e ad i n g E l k s Lodge No. 115 and Lancaster Elks No. 134 will host its annual Flag Day ceremony on Sunday, June 14, at 1 p.m. The event will

be held at Faithful Living Home, 2015 N. Reading Road, Denver.

This year’s event holds extra value for a multitude of reasons.

Along with it being America’s 250th anniversary this summer, Faithful Living has nearly two dozen veterans living at the facility, including 101-year-old World War II veteran John Fry, originally from Brecknock John Fry, a 101-year-old World War II Township and Reamstown. veteran, is pictured with his two

They call themselves “Misfits.”

But that is not a complete representation of who they are and what they are all about.

They could also call themselves “Supporters,” “Heroes” or “Sympathizers.”

“We are a group of people who have been impacted by cancer in some way, either as caregivers, survivors, or we have friends who have gone through the fight,” said Sharon Groff, the Misfits on a Mission team captain. “When we started, most teams were affiliated with a school group, church group, a business or family members. We were a group of people who wanted to do something to give back in honor or in memory of loved ones. Thus, we were a bunch of misfits who had no affiliation, but were on a mission in the fight against cancer.”

Misfits on a Mission is an independent, six-member Relay for Life team that will be out in full force at Conestoga Valley High School (CVHS), 2110 Horseshoe Road, Lancaster, on Friday, June 12, from 3 to 11 p.m., when the American Cancer Society stages its popular local fight against cancer. The volunteer-led, fundraising and awareness-raising Relay for Life brings people together from all over Lancaster County who have been directly or indirectly affected by cancer.

Lancaster County’s annual Relay for Life will feature local teams and individuals running or walking around CVHS’s track in support of loved ones who have battled cancer and will include music, kids’ activities, food trucks, baked goods, crafters and auctions.

The ceremony will detail the history of American flags.

“I really wanted this to be something special,” said Pat Conner, exalted ruler of Lodge No. 115.

“The importance of this ceremony to our organization is one thing … (the veterans) will get the most out of the service. They understand what the flag means to be an American.”

The ceremony will detail the history of the American flag, all the way from the “Don’t Tread on Me” flag used during the American Revolution to today’s 50-star star-spangled banner.

Local Elks lodges throughout the country and in U.S. territories will celebrate Flag Day on June 14. The Elks are the only fraternal organization to require observance of Flag Day. The Elks began requiring this in 1911, five years before President Woodrow Wilson established the day by proclamation in 1916, and nearly four decades before President Harry Truman (an Elks member) signed a bill that made the day a national observance.

According to their website, the Elks “invest in their communities through programs that

help children grow up healthy and drug-free, meet the needs of today’s veterans, and improve the quality of life.”

The Elks have made more than $12 billion in donations since the organization formed in 1868 out of New York City.

There are almost 2,000 Elks lodges in the nation, with a total membership of about 750,000.

Lodge No. 115 is heavily involved in the community, making large contributions to Penn State Health St. Joseph Medical Center and to a program that provides nurses to those with special needs.

For more information about the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, visit www.elks.org.

To learn about L odge No. 115 and 134, search for “Ephrata-Reading Elks Lodge #115” and “Lancaster Elks Lodge #134” on Facebook.

“I really just want them to w a l k away fe e l i n g proud of their country,” Conner said. “It’s about understanding what the flag really represents; it’s the sacrifices made for our freedom.”

Motorsports from pg 1 This is the 25th annivers ar y o f the mo torsports show, which began through the men’s ministry at LCBC. “Our first show was just a couple of grills set up and probably 10 to 20 vehicles,” Hershey recalled. “It was just a fun idea we had, and it’s grown from that.”

He noted that people come from as far away as Florida to participate in the show, adding, “We’ve had people come from 10 different states.”

The show is about more than vehicles, he said.

It’s about creating a place where people can come together, enjoy the day with family and friends and experience community in a real and welcoming way.

Food vendors will be

on- site, including Do g H o u s e G r i l l , S t a c e y ’s Orangeade, Sittin’ Pickin’ Chickin’, Bricker’s French Fries, Scoops Ice Cream & Grille, Noel’s Café, Funcky Candy X-Press, Kreider Farms and the LCBC café.

Families can also enjoy free activities throughout the day, such as face painting, inf latables, mobile mini golf and RC Monster Trucks.

One of the day’s highlights will be a special appearance by the Life L i o n h e l i c o p te r te a m , Hershey said, noting that people will have the opportunity to watch the helicopter land on-site, meet the crew and experience a live takeoff later in the event.

Trophies will be awarded in a variety of categories

for motorcycles, model cars and other vehicles.

“Our trophies are completely unique to all car s h o w s ,” He rs h e y s a i d .

“They are created by one of the guys on our show team in the design of an old gas pump with the s h o w ’s s p e c i f i c t h e m e vehicle on it. People that are into car shows, they love our trophies.”

All entrants will also be eligible to win a grand p r i z e N A PA o n e - o f- a kind toolbox, which will be awarded by random drawing.

The general public will h av e t h e o p p o r t u n i t y to win grand prizes of a Hershe y Antique Auto Museum package and a t ra i l e r f ro m K e y s to n e Trailers. People can scan a QR code on- site and

choose to enter for either prize or for both.

Hershey invites everyone out for the motorsports show. “ You’re going to se e some of the coolest vehic l e s a ro u n d ,” h e s a i d .

“And if you’re not as into cars, we have tons of stuff for the whole family to enjoy. Originally, this was strictly focused on car show people, but through the years, we’ve grown it and cultivated it to be a family event with lots of cool things for kids to experience.”

In the event of inclement weather, the show will be held on Saturday, June 20, at the same time and location.

That’s the main purpose,” said Roth. “We want to encourage them to grow in their relationship with Him, learn the sport and grow in their sport. Kind of like, ‚ÄòHey, I tried a new sport, I want to continue in the sport or try a different sport.’ We want them to be more confident.”

The sports being offered at the Power Camps include soccer, basketball, baseball, field hockey, volleyball, flag football and track and field, as well as outdoor events like BB gun shooting, archery, fishing, outdoor safety and hiking. The Power Camps are designed for youths between

the ages of 8 and 12. “ We’re combining the love of Jesus and sports,” said Roth, a resident of New Holland. “There are a lot of positive vibes. It’s more than just about sports. Every day we have a theme day, and we have new sports this year.

It’s a lot of fun. We have music playing, and we want campers to feel super welcomed. I’d love to have more and more kids come out and experience these opportunities. It’s not a competitive sports camp.”

More than 130 preteens are expected to attend the Power Camps. A vast majority of the campers reside in Lancaster County, including the Garden Spot, Cocalico, Ephrata, Warwick and Lampeter-Strasburg areas.

Power Camps keep kids active over the summer.

Power Camps allow kids to meet new people and make new friends. Power Camps help kids discover sports, improve athletic skills and foster a love for their games.

Power Camps also establish and encourage relationships with God. “It’s about mind, body and soul,” said Diana Roth, an area representative of Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA) and a co-director of the New Holland Power Camp. “There are so many life lessons in sports. Athletics can teach you so many lessons. It’s so good to get outside, move and have fun.

Hopefully, we’re developing a love for being physical.”

This year’s edition of FCA’s annual Power Camps will be conducted from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. from Monday, June 15, to Thursday, June 18, on the athletic fields and inside of Petra Christian Fellowship, 565 Airport Road, New Holland. A later installment of the Power Camps will be presented from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. from Monday, July 13, to Thursday, July 16, at Manheim Brethren in Christ Church, 54 N. Penryn Road, Manheim.

This college scholarship is awarded to graduating high school seniors who plan to pursue secondary studies in the fields of agriculture or conservation of natural resources. Lauren Smith and Ellie Eshleman received the 2025-26 scholarships.

Conesto ga Township was honored with the Low Volume Road Project Award. Conestoga Township worked with LCCD’s low-volume road program to build a technically sound project on Brenner Hollow Road that reduced stormwater impacts to a local stream. To do so, the township engaged landowners, worked within a limited area, solved a resource concern, and stayed within its budget. LCCD recognized the project for technical i n g e n u i t y, co m m u n i t y engagement, and responsible use of public funding.

Rick Purnell has volunteered at the Lancaster County Youth Conservation School as a fly-tier instructor for more than 15 years.

Donating supplies and

materials for all students to participate, he’s generously offered students hands-on experience, developing an appreciation for this outdoor experience of flyfishing.

B ra n d o n B i x l e r, t h e agricultural and environmental science teacher at McCaskey High School in the School District of Lancaster, accepted the Conser vation Educator Award. The accolade honored Bixler’s commitment to building a new program at McCaskey High School, bridging agriculture and FFA to environmental science within an urban school district. McCaskey FFA completed the charter process in 2025.
