Taking Off Wheels And Wings Festival Scheduled
otary Club of Lancaster member Stephen Dietrich, one of the organizers of the 2022 Wheels and Wings Festival and 5K, hopes the Coffee Cruise, a new addition to this year’s activities, will attract vintage car owners who like to get their cars out on the road. “(The Coffee Cruise) will be held at the same time as the 5K (run),” explained Dietrich, who noted that the cruise will start at 7:30 a.m., following coffee and doughnuts. “It will be really fun,” he said, adding that a repair trailer will ride along in case any car develops engine issues. The route for the cruise was created by Michael Rowen of Michael’s Motor Cars. There is a discount for those who register prior to the show. This year’s festival, which will be the fifth, will be held at the Lancaster Airport, 500 Airport Road,

Lititz, on Saturday, June 25. Day-of registration for the 5K run will start at 6:30 a.m. across the street from the airport at Brethren Village.

Activities for children are planned, along with a fly-in, and the “Everything Wheels” car show will be held from 9 a.m. until 2 p.m. A DJ will spin tunes throughout the event, which will be held rain or shine. There will be no charge for spectators to come and enjoy the day. Parking will be provided by suggested donation. Runners who register for the 5K prior to Friday, June 17, will receive a discount. Medals will be awarded to the top three male and female finishers in six age categories. Those wishing to register prior to race day may visit https://runsignup.com and search for “Lititz.”

Mattie cannot wait to greet visitors to Caring Hearts, one of several centers in Lancaster and Lebanon counties that serve members of the Plain community with special needs. Mattie crosses the room to say hello with joy and exuberance. Another of the women brings a guest book to sign. Both are happy to welcome strangers in their midst. See Workshops pg 2
Manheim Township High School student Pritesh Tanna (left) nominated teacher Tammy Sweeney for the Teacher Impact Award she won this spring.
More than a year ago, when Pritesh Tanna was a sophomore in teacher Tammy Sweeney’s Advaced Placement World History class at Manheim Township High School (MTHS), he heard an advertisement on WITF radio. “I heard that I could nominate a teacher (for an award) through WITF,” recalled Tanna. “I really wanted to do that, so I talked to my parents.” Tanna’s parents agreed. In the fall of 2021, when he heard the announcement again, he went to the WITF website and completed the See Impact Award pg 3
