Covered Bridge Classic highlights the joy of riding

BY JEFF FALK

TheLancaster Bicycle Club exists to promote the sport of bicycling, advocate for the safety of riders and provide members with cycling opportunities. Few events exemplify that mission better than the Covered Bridge Classic.

On Sunday, Aug. 20, the 400member Lancaster Bicycle Club will stage the 44th edition of its annual Covered Bridge Classic at seven start/finish points across northern Lancaster County. Some 1,300 bicycling enthusiasts from points all along the East Coast will descend upon the county to celebrate the fellowship inspired by cycling.

The event is being presented as a ride, not a competition.

“The purpose is to draw in cyclists,” said Leslie Arnold, communications director for the Lancaster Bicycle Club. “It’s to offer a huge cycling event to the community. It’s an eclectic mix. Some are very serious cyclists. Some people do it because they are challenged by friends. Some make it part of their vacations. People want

to see the covered bridges. That’s what draws people.”

From the seven start/finish points, participants are treated to rides of various length - 35, 50, 65 or 100 miles - through the Lancaster County countryside in the areas of Warwick Township, Ephrata, Manheim, Stevens and Hempfield. The 100-mile trek incorporates 14 of Lancaster County’s covered bridges into its journey.

All of the routes include rest stops, some of which feature mechanical support, parking and refreshments.

“Lancaster is not flat,” said Arnold. “There aren’t steep, steep climbs, but we have climbs that are going to push you. The shortest course has the least amount of climbs, and the longest course has the most amount of climbs.”

The Covered Bridge Classic also serves as a fundraiser. From its participation, the Lancaster Bicycle Club is hoping to raise more than $10,000, some of which will be put back into the club,some of which

Celebrating Aaron’s Acres

BY ANN MEAD ASH

W hen Risa Paskoff’s children were small, she almost never got to read the Sunday paper, but on one Sunday in early 1989, Risa noticed an article about Janiece Seldomridge, who was raising her autistic son, Aaron. “I said to the kids, ‘Give me a second to read this story,’” recalled Risa, who specifically remembered one line from the article that read, “(Seldomridge) and a group of parents want to start a camp program (for their children with disabilities).” “I needed to find out about that,” Risa said. “That was my dream.”

Risa met with the group of parents several times and eventually became the director of Aaron’s Acres, an organization that bears the name of Seldomridge’s son and provides socialization and recreation for children and young adults with special needs. That first summer camp in 1989 welcomed children ages 5 to 9. Aaron’s Acres now offers both summer camp and school year programs for those ages 5 to 21.

On Saturday, Aug. 26, starting at 1 p.m., the organization will hold Aaron’s Acres’ 25th anniversary celebration at Mickey’s Black Box, 101 Rock Lititz Blvd., Lititz. “It will

Blood is one of those rare gifts that’s just as much a blessing to give as it is to receive. Quite simply, it is one of the most important things one human being can give to another.

On Friday, Aug. 18, Calvary Church, 1051 Landis Valley Road, Lancaster, will conduct one of its reccurring blood drives. Sponsored by the American Red Cross, the event will accept individual donations of blood from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. in the See Blood drive pg 3

Library plans celebration

The Manheim Township Public Library, 595 Granite Run Drive, Lancaster, invites the community to celebrate the end of the Summer Reading Program on Saturday, Aug. 12, with interactive learning and entertainment for people of all ages. The celebration will run from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., and participation in the library’s Summer Reading Program is not required for community members to attend.

The event will include food trucks from Stoney’s Burgers & Fries, Kona Ice and Krazy Kones, in addition to lawn games, a kids’ scavenger

The Manheim Township Police Department K-9 Unit will give a demonstration at 9 a.m., and the Manheim Township Fire Department will offer Touch-a-Truck throughout the celebration. Activities will also include a magic show by Erik Hershey at 10 a.m., Mr. Ben’s Special Story Time at 11 a.m. and a performance by Phredd the Ukulele One Man Band at 12:30 p.m.

be a celebration of the community,” said Risa. “We are where we are because of the support that we get from everyone in the community.”

The celebration will be divided into two parts, with a carnival-themed family fun event happening from 1 to 4 p.m. featuring inflatables, bounce houses, games, food trucks, face painting, and popcorn. “All (area) families are invited. It’s open to everyone,” said Risa.

For the evening event, doors open at 5:30 p.m., and the celebration for guests age 18 and older will be held from 6 to 9 p.m. The Mama Tried Band will play and a mentalist from Philadelphia will stroll through the gathering interacting with guests. Food will include heavy appetizers and beverages by Cracked Pepper Catering. Risa noted that silent auctions will be held during the afternoon and evening events, along with a Fund-a-Need opportunity. “Two parents will speak, and there will be a brief presentation (in the evening),” said Risa, who added that attire will be dressy casual. Tickets, which are necessary to attend either event, may be purchased at www.aaronsacres.org by

Monday, Aug. 14.

Risa recalled identifying her first career choice at an early age. “When I was 9, I volunteered to help in the classroom for students with disabilities instead of going out to recess,” she stated. “When I was 16, I worked at a (Young Men’s Hebrew Association (YMHA)) day camp for kids with disabilities in New York.” In that position, Risa recognized the possibilities a camp atmosphere could offer. “I saw the power of focusing on therapy, communication, and socialization but in a fun setting,” she said.

After earning her master’s degree in social work, Risa worked in a hospital setting. At age 24, she contacted the camp where she had been previously employed and learned the organizaton was looking for a program director. She filled that position, but resigned later when her husband, Jack, a rabbi, began leading a synagogue in New Jersey. Not long after, she was rehired and commuted from her new home to the YMHA until her first child was born. When her family moved to Lancaster, she had her own therapy practice for children until after becoming the director for Aaron’s Acres.

The Lampeter-Strasburg Community Band will present the third in a series of summer concerts sponsored by West Lampeter Township and the Rotary Club of Lancaster South on Sunday, Aug. 13, at 6:30 p.m. The event will take place at the Lampeter YMCA Amphitheater, 800 Village Road (Route 741), Lancaster. The band is directed by Howard Boots and consists of 40 members. The upcoming one-hour performance will include the march “Entry of the Gladiators”; “Mars”; “Blue Moon,” featuring a trombone solo; “Wooly Bully”; an Elton John

medley; “C Jam Blues,” featuring a saxophone solo; “Big Band Signatures”; “Harlem Nocturne,” featuring a saxophone solo; “Teddy Trombone”; “Wayfaring Stranger”; and “Dance Fever.” Attendees should bring lawn chairs.

In the case of rain, the concert will be performed in the Lampeter United Methodist Church, 1101 Village Road, Lampeter. Admission is free. For more information, call 717-4137126, visit www.lscband.com or search for “LampeterStrasburg Community Band” on Facebook.

The King’s Brass to perform at First UMC

First United Methodist Church (UMC), 29 E. Walnut St., Lancaster, will host Tim Zimmerman and the King’s Brass on Sunday, Aug. 13, at 8:15 and 10:45 a.m.

The King’s Brass consists of Christian professional musicians from across the United

States who perform original arrangements, which can also be heard on the group’s 15 recordings. For 40 years, The King’s Brass has performed more than 100 concerts each season. The group’s members play three trumpets, three

“ We want to help others. We want to be a part of that,” said Renee Crowe, Calvary Church’s events coordinator.

“By donating blood, you will save a life. It’ll take an hour. Every two seconds, someone needs blood. Since blood cannot be manufactured and because it has a limited shelf life, the supply must be regenerated by donors.”

“Giving blood is a simple way to do something so impactful,” said Nicole Roschella, a communications manager for the American Red Cross of Pennsylvania. “The need is constant. It always makes me feel good to go out to a blood drive. It makes you feel great to help your neighbor.”

Calvary Church conducts a blood drive every three months, and the goal for this

month’s drive is to collect 36 pints of blood. Since 2020, Calvary Church has helped the American Red Cross collect more than 420 units of blood; one unit represents the blood collected from a single donor.

Appointments are preferred, but walk-ins are also welcomed.

“(Donors are) all kinds of people,” said Roschella. “It can be just about anyone, as long as you match the eligibility requirements. At blood drives like the one at Calvary, you’ll get a combination of church members or people from the general area. We also have people who stick to the 56day schedule (the minimum number of recommended days between donations), and they’ll even travel.”

“In my personal life, I’ve seen when people are anemic and they receive blood,” said

Crowe. “I was given blood through open heart surgery, and without it, I would’ve died.”

The American Red Cross hosts about 120 blood drives in Lancaster County every year. Between June of 2022 and June of 2023, the American Red Cross distributed more than 1,000 units of red blood cells, more than 240 units of platelets and more than 60 units of plasma to hospitals in Lancaster County.

“W hen you give blood, it’s used locally, and we need to keep the hospital shelves stocked,” said Roschella. “It could be used for a number of reasons. It could be used for people with sickle cell disease, people with cancer, mothers having difficult childbirths. One out of seven people who go to a hospital needs a blood transfusion.”

About 29,000 units of red blood cells are used in the United States each day.

“ We’re honored to serve the Red Cross here,” said Crowe. “Not only is it helping the community, but it’s also helping to fill our mission. We just want to open our doors to the community and show people we serve and that we love them.”

“Right now, we’re seeing a drop in blood donations, something we typically see in the summer months,” said Roschella. “It’s not a huge commitment (other than) making the time to do it. You don’t see (the recipients’) faces, but you know your blood is helping.”

Donors can schedule an appointment to give by downloading the Red Cross Blood Donor App, by visiting www.RedCrossBlood.org or by calling 800-733-2767.

Registration is now open for Friendship Community’s 23rd annual Irvin C. Enck Memorial Golf Tournament benefiting individuals with intellectual disabilities and autism. The event will be held on Thursday, Sept. 14, at Foxchase Golf Club, 300 Stevens Road, Stevens. Check-in and practice time on the driving range will begin at 7 a.m., and the scramble-style tournament will begin with a shotgun start at 8 a.m. Around 1 p.m., lunch will be served.

The cost per golfer or per group of four includes the green fee, use of a golf cart, a continental breakfast, unlimited snacks and drinks on the course, a catered lunch and an entry into a door prize

drawing. Additional items, including mulligans and other tricks, as well as prize tickets, are available for purchase in advance or on the day of the event.

This year will also include the fifth annual Golf Ball Drop sponsored by Blue Ridge Communications. Tickets for numbered golf balls will be sold. The numbered golf balls will be dropped from approximately 15 feet in the air onto the green of the 18th hole. The supporter whose golf ball lands and stays in the hole will win a cash prize. If multiple balls land and stay in the hole, the cash prize will be split. If no golf ball lands and stays in the hole, the ball(s) closest to the hole will win and split,

potentially, a consolation cash prize.

Sponsorship opportunities are available. To register for the golf tournament or for sponsorship information and Golf Ball Drop tickets, visit www.friendshipcommunity .net/golf.

For more information, contact Calista White at 717-6562466, ext. 1155, or cwhite@ friendshipcommunity.net.

The event is held in memory of Enck, former director of building and maintenance for Friendship Community, who

passed away in August 2014.

Friendship Community is a faith-based organization that has sought to cultivate capabilities of individuals with intellectual disabilities and autism in Lancaster and Lebanon counties since 1972. The organization offers an arts day program, homebased services, the Lifesharing program and 27 residential homes serving more than 150 individuals in the two counties. For more information, follow the organization on Facebook or Instagram.

will be funneled into community causes related to bicycling and some of which will go toward the maintenance of the covered bridges.

Since 1999, the Lancaster Bicycle Club has awarded $545,000 in grants mainly funded through the Covered Bridge Classic.

“It’s a huge way to give back to the community,” said Arnold. “The Lancaster Bike

Club is all about advocating for cycling safety. We have social events throughout the year. We have different things for everybody, different types of rides for all levels of riders. Throughout the year, there’s always an effort to schedule a ride every weekend.”

In addition to its relaxed rides, the Lancaster Bicycle Club also organizes two other

more formal rides - the Three Creek Century and the Chocolate Tour.

The Lancaster Bicycle Club was formed in 1973, and six years later it presented its inaugural Covered Bridge Classic.

“Over the years, we’ve evolved,” said Arnold. “More people came in, and we

became bigger and more complex. At one point, we had 600 members. It’s a pastime you can do, and there’s also more serious riders. The club has evolved to reflect the needs of the membership.”
