For members of the Lancaster Kennel Club (LKC), dogs are more than just pets. Dogs are companions, par tners, and members of the family.

One of LKC’s goals is to explore and reinvent humans’ relationships with canines.

“If you have a good bond with your dog, they will look up to you,” said Dave Martin, who’s been LKC’s president for five years. “They’ll follow you, and you have to take care of them.

You can make bonds through walks and through tricks.”

LKC meets at 6:30 p.m. on the second Wednesdays of August, October, February and April at the Manheim Township Public Library, 595 Granite Run Drive, Lancaster. The meetings are open to the public.

“Purebred dogs are our focus,” said Martin. “Every breed was bred for a special purpose. When dogs become pets, their purpose can be lost. We’re trying to promote purebreds, responsible dog ownership and responsible pet ownership.

“Being a good owner means making sure your dog has food, water, all of its medical needs are taken care of and that it feels safe emotionally,” added Martin.

“If you have a purebred and you realize it has a medical issue, it’s your responsibility not to breed it for the sake of money.”

LKC sponsors and conducts three dog shows each year - The Celtic Classic at the York Expo Grounds in March, the Red Rose Classic at the Lebanon Valley Expo Center in May and American

A destination marketing organization, Discover Lancaster has come up with a unique way to explore a shared past and celebrate our nation’s 250th birthday.

Members of the Lancaster Kennel Club

Kennel Club-sanctioned Agility Trials at In The Net Sports Complex in Palmyra in October. All of those events bring together dog lovers from across the region for fellowship and competition.

LKC also holds educational community events like “Meet the Breeds” and “Responsible Pet Ownership Day.” In addition, LKC awards scholarships to students interested in the veterinary sciences and assists with the funding of local police department K-9 programs.

“We can be a community resource,” said Martin. “Say you’re looking for a particular breed. I’ll first point someone toward a member.

There are plenty of oppor-

tunities to do things with dogs.”

More than 85 dues-paying members make up the Lancaster Kennel Club, which is governed by a code of ethics. They are owners, breeders and exhibitors of purebred dogs and, for the most part, Lancaster County residents.

There are more than 60 breeds of dogs owned by

LKC members.

“They’re just everyday people who love dogs,” said Martin. “Not everybody in our club is showing their dogs.”

Martin shares his Center ville-area home with two Norwich terriers, Daisy Mae and Otis. “ T hey ’re small,” said Martin. “They’re faithful.

They’re fun little dogs.”

A full voting member of the American Kennel Club, LKC can trace its origins to 1921.

“In the 1920s, it was just like-minded people coming together,” said Martin.

“People showed their dogs, and some traveled. They bred purebred dogs.”

Dreams from pg 1 said Mindy Fetherman, director of development.

“Tax-deductible gifts will help a resident to have a very memorable day. We are grateful to JNL Technologies Inc. and Schouten Drywall for their recent gifts. We will also be inviting businesses and individuals to donate or discount specific things to fulfill a resident’s personalized wish.”

Examples might include concert tickets, a ride in a limousine or vintage car, a favorite meal or dessert, flowers, or photography/ videography of the wish.

The Pleasant Moments team also hopes to host a 5K run/walk fundraiser in spring 2027 at Pleasant View.

“We’re grateful to the auxiliary of Pleasant View for their gift of $2,000 to provide the first two Pleasant Moments,” Kiralfy said.

The organizers are excited to see the reaction from residents and the impact of the program.

“At Pleasant View, our goal is to spark joy in the lives of those we serve,” Anderson stated. “Life brings different journeys and obstacles for each of us.

Sometimes, a thoughtful gesture, meaningful experience or special moment can make all the difference. The Pleasant Moments program was created with that belief in mind - to provide opportunities for connection, encouragement and happiness when it is needed most. These personalized moments will celebrate residents, honor their wishes and remind them that they are valued members of our community.”

experiencing something new.

“Pleasant Moments is a staff-led initiative. Staff and residents can nominate residents in all levels of living who are facing the loss of a spouse, child or loved one; a new health diagnosis; or other difficult circumstances,” Kiralfy explained. “Residents selected can ‘make a wish’ for something they ’ve always wanted to do. It could be going to a concert, attending a Phillies game, visiting a sibling who lives a few hours away, etc. The resident can invite one loved one to join them.”

The Pleasant Moments team includes the personal care home administrator, director of nursing, health care administrator, director of residential living, social workers and recreation therapy/activities staff members.

“This team, along with an independent living resident, will review the anonymous and confidential nominations and work to grant one wish a month,” Kiralfy said, adding that $1,000 is the maximum cost for each wish and could include transpor tation costs and staff time, if the resident requires an aide to accompany them.

“We also have many residents serving as caregivers for their spouse, sibling or child,” said Marie Anderson, director of residential living. “We hope to provide a Pleasant Moment for some of these caregivers.”

Pleasant View hopes to serve its first resident in the initiative this October, and there are several ways the community can support the program.

“We hope to serve 10 to 12 residents per year as resources are provided,”

Passports from pg 1 have locations throughout the county. They might be places people may not have heard of or explored before.”

This passport to which Cliff is referring isn’t used as identification for foreign travel. Instead, it is a passport to local Lancaster County history.

Discover L ancaster ’s passport is a free commemorative booklet that can be picked up at the organization’s headquarters at 501 Greenfield Road, Lancaster, or any of the 23 local historic sites that are part of the tour celebrating America 250. When passport holders visit the

participating Lancaster County locations, they will receive a custom-made collectible stamp that can be pasted into their passport booklets.

The free passports also feature deals and coupons that can be redeemed at the 23 historic locations and at other points of interest around Lancaster County.

The promotion is good from now until the end of the year.

“Physically, the passport is made of heavy material,” said Cliff, a resident of Manheim Township. “It’s something that’s going to be a keepsake if someone is inclined. It’s a neat way to

commemorate how you celebrated this special year.”

Included among the par ticipating locations are Julius Sturgis Pretzel B a ke r y, H i stor ic R o ck Ford, the Strasburg Rail Road, the Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania, Lancaster Central Market, National Watch and Clock Museum, Susquehanna National Heritage Area, LancasterHistory Museum a n d R e s e a rc h C e n t e r, the Fulton Theatre, the Demuth Museum of Art, Landis Valley Village and Farm Museum, Ephrata Cloister, the T haddeus Stevens and Lydia Hamilton Smith Center for His-

tory and Democracy, and the Christiana Historical Society. “ We ’ve got a heapin’ helping of history here,” said Cliff. “Lancaster is one of the oldest inland cities. It’s one of the very few United States capitals, even though it was only for one day. A lot of people forget that around the 1700s, Lancaster was the western frontier. I’d say we’re pretty historic in a lot of ways. I think on the historic landscape of central Pennsylvania, Lancaster more than holds its own. If the passport helps people explore some of the history, we think that’s a good thing

for the local economy.

“There are so many great historical stories we wanted to share with locals and visitors,” Cliff continued. “The history and heritage aspect we offer is certainly significant. We’re well-known for the Amish community. History and heritage are often referenced by our visitors as reasons for coming here.

With the country’s 250th birthday, it seemed like the perfect opportunity to highlight that.”

An advocate for tourism, Discover Lancaster was formed from the Pennsylvania Dutch Convention and Business Bureau in 2015. Discover Lancaster,

which receives 80 percent of its funding from Lancaster County’s hotel tax, employs 14 full-time staff members and eight parttime travel consultants.

“Tourism represents a sizeable part of our overall economy,” said Cliff. “It helps provide jobs, tax revenues and economic growth.

Locals can enjoy some of these experiences right in their own backyards. There are benefits to having a robust tourism industry.

All in all, the passport is really cool. It’s a great way to spend time.”

“With six festive breakfast seatings from 7:30 a.m. to 10:15 a.m., this ma g ical holid ay tradition offers families the chance to experience the splendor of The Star Barn Village - decorated in full Christmas charm - while supporting a meaningful cause,” said Dana Myers, d i re c to r o f c h a r i t a b l e giving for Brittany’s Hope.

“This year, all admissions include breakfast with Santa. Guests will enjoy a delicious meal followed by a full day of holiday fun, including pony rides, children’s crafts provided

“We could not put this event on without the love, support and generosity of our wonder ful community,” Myers remarked.

“A ll the businesses s o willing to donate, from Don Martin at D’Franc Photography and our DJ from Mixed-Up Productions to many food donors and of course Food for Thought Catering, there are so many individuals and businesses ensuring that C hr istmas at T he Star Barn is a gift for Brittany ’s Hope - and most importantly - for the children we serve.”

B r i t t a ny ’s Ho p e h a s been hosting Christmas at T he Star Barn since 2015, and Myers said it’s always a popular event.

“If you come to Christmas at The Star Barn one time, prepare to make it a family tradition year after year,” she said. “We literally have people emailing, calling , even stopping me at Costco in January asking when tickets will go on sale for Christmas at The Star Barn because their whole family has done it for so long and they want to be sure they can get enough tickets for their whole group.”

She hopes even more families will start a tradition of attending the event.

“It is the perfect way to begin the Christmas seas on and make s ure yo u r C h r i s t m a s s p i r i t b e g ins hig h and stays that way all season long,” she stated. “The beautiful professional family photos alone make the entire day wor thwhile, and there is oh so much more to love!”
