At 5K, ugly sweaters are things of beauty BY JEFF FALK

Visualize the most tasteless, ugliest Christmas sweaters you can. Then think of them being donned by runners traversing a challenging course. If you can imagine that, you’ve got a pretty good handle on what the Ugly Sweater XC 5K run and 1-mile

fun run is. It’s about having fun and raising money for the Manheim Township High School crosscountry (XC) program. Sponsored by the Manheim Township cross-country booster club, the Ugly Sweater 5K run will be contested on Saturday, Dec. 2, beginning at 10 a.m. at the Landis Run Intermediate School, See Ugly sweaters pg 2

The Corsair Blue Jazz Orchestra is a great example of Lancaster County’s deep musical tradition.

Corsair Blue Jazz Orchestra will honor veterans BY JEFF FALK

ho or what exactly is the Corsair Blue Jazz Orchestra (CBJO)? Well, that’s kind of hard to explain simply because it’s always reinventing itself. But here’s what you absolutely, positively need to know: It’s a big band with a big sound playing a big concert for a big cause. A band deeply rooted in Manheim Township, Corsair Blue Jazz Orchestra, with special guest America’s Sweethearts, will present a benefit concert at 7 p.m. on Sunday, Nov. 12 - the day after Veterans Day - at Highland Presbyterian Church, 500 E. Roseville Road, Lancaster. A freewill offering will be accepted, and all proceeds will go toward the Wounded Warrior Project. “The goal is to honor veterans of all eras and to raise money for the Wounded Warrior Project,” said Joe Chesnutt, CBJO’s founder and trumpet player. “It’s one of my

“The goal is to honor veterans of all eras and to raise money for the Wounded Warrior Project.” “We love it,” said Chesnutt. “It’s alive and well. We play it very well and our audiences like it.” Following a pandemic-induced moratorium, CBJO presented a scaled-back version of its Veterans Day concert last year. In 2019, the all-volunteer band raised $2,280 for

the Wounded Warrior Project with its Veterans Day performance. This year, CBJO has performed eight concerts at various venues across Lancaster County. “There’s a lot of music here in Lancaster,” said Chesnutt. “We play for the love of playing. We’re not professional musicians. How you would grow a band like this is related to how the music has evolved. We’ve added to our inventory. The demographic we were originally targeting was the Greatest Generation. Many of them have passed away, but their children are still here.” CBJO comprises 20 musicians, playing trumpets, trombones, saxophones, clarinets, a guitar, piano, drums and an upright bass. “ We have a housewife,” said Chesnutt. “We have a microbiologist. We have an entrepreneur. We have a couple of veterans. It runs the gamut. It’s a huge cross section of the population. The common link is everybody plays very well, and it comes

The Ugly Sweater XC 5K fosters a fun and festive atmosphere.

LancasterHistory highlights filmmaker BY ADRIAN ESCHENWALD

The National Museum of African American History and Culture recognizes Madeline Anderson as the first African American woman to direct a televised documentary film. Anderson and her work are credited with paving the way for black women in the television industry, but many Lancaster residents may be unaware that she also grew up in Lancaster city. The renowned

filmmaker is an alumna of McCaskey High School and Millersville University, and she went on to achieve national acclaim in her career. On Sept. 23, LancasterHistory, 230 N. President Ave., Lancaster, held a film screening of two documentaries directed by Anderson. The first film, titled “Integration Report One,” was released in 1960, and it depicts the battle for racial equality in various cities across the United States. The second film, titled “I Am Somebody,”

preferred charities. We’re like a Glenn Miller-style big band. I think it’s a very full, rich sound that makes you want to tap your feet and smile. For many people, it’ll bring back memories from their youth. It’s very sentimental for a lot of people.” The 90-minute concert will feature big band swing music from the 1940s.

holiday season with a run. There’s a wooded area on the course, and when you go down in that area it’s kind of like a winter wonderland.” “The money we make, we need to reinvest it into the kids,” added Phillips. “We could do other fundraisers and they would be a lot less work. This is about getting kids excited about running. There are plenty of youth sports out there, but there aren’t really ways to get (children) introduced to the sport we love, and hopefully hook them.” The event started as the Lancaster County Cross Country 5K about 15 years ago. In 2017, the ugly sweaters were introduced as a way to spruce it up. “Manheim Township is in a really unique position because we’re really gaining traction as a cross-country program,” said Phillips. “This year, both the boys and girls won leagues (Lancaster-Lebanon championships). We’re having success because the kids are having a good time. The program is strong and getting stronger because of the community we have.” For more information about the Ugly Sweater XC 5K or to register, go to www.lancaster countyxc5k.com.

25 Blue Streak Blvd., Lancaster. Participants are asked to donate canned food items or finances to the Power Packs Project, while proceeds from the run will benefit the Manheim Township crosscountry program. “I’d say that more than half of the runners will be wearing ugly sweaters,” said Mike Phillips, race director for the event and an assistant junior high coach for the Manheim Township crosscountry program. “It’s a sight to see. It’s crazy how ugly they get, the kind that grandma thought was cool or some with reindeer on them. There’s another class of them that involves a manufacturer going all out to make them as ugly as possible. I wouldn’t be caught dead wearing one in public.” On the day of the event, registration will open at 8:30 a.m. and awards will be presented around 10:45 a.m. The atmosphere of the event will be enhanced by holiday music, hot chocolate, soup and cookies. Parts of the course will be decorated with Christmas packages, tinsel, lighting and snowflakes. More than 300 participants are expected, and the proceeds will help fund Manheim Township cross-country team-building events, competition costs and gear and supplies for student-athletes in need. “This is a lot more than a run,” said Phillips. “This is an outdoor community event available to families in December.

from their youth.” The Corsair Blue Jazz Orchestra takes its name from the American Corsair fighter aircraft that saw duty in World War II and the Korean War, and the blue is a reference to Manheim Township High School’s school colors. The orchestra’s origins can be traced to the 35th reunion of Manheim Township’s Class of 1978 in 2013. “Manheim Township had out-

standing jazz bands in ’76, ’77 and ’78,” said Chesnutt. “We were talking at the reunion, ‘Wouldn’t it be nice to get the band back together and play again?’ So we decided to form a band, and the era of music we really liked was the ’40s and ’50s. Five of us put this all together, and that’s how it came to be.” For additional information about the Corsair Blue Jazz Orchestra, go to www.corsairbluejazz.org.

In April of 2021, Steps to Success Inc., a preschool and day care service, moved into the Zion Lutheran Church building at 18 Quarry Road, Leola. The relocation brought the children who attend into regular contact with church staff members, including worship leader Kurt Brown and pastor Karen Larson. Last summer, when a group of Zion members were brainstorming

LancasterHistory from pg 1 was released in 1970 to capture the troubles of black women who fought for better working conditions at a hospital in Charleston, S.C. Shianne Hargrove, an information specialist at LancasterHistory, had the idea to feature Anderson’s work while she was working on a project for the organization’s Collections Up Close program in February. Collections Up Close is a series that offers tours to focus on specific items from LancasterHistory’s archive; during the tours, staff members and visiting scholars provide additional information on the historical relevance of each item. The goal of Hargrove’s project was to highlight black individuals from Lancaster who became accomplished artists, directors or actors. Hargrove was already familiar with Anderson’s work, but she rediscovered it in her research and

embarked on a quest to find copies of Anderson’s documentaries. After six months of hard work and research, Hargrove located copies of the films with the help of Mabel Rosenheck, LancasterHistory’s director of education and exhibition planning. “I was a fan of (Anderson’s) work already - I had seen her documentaries in college - but realizing that she was a local black female filmmaker made me feel closer to her,” Hargrove said. “I also graduated from McCaskey and Millersville. It became more real to me since she existed here in Lancaster, and she made these amazing documentaries that will be housed in the Smithsonian Institution.” Anderson now resides in Brooklyn, but she virtually attended the film screening for a question-and-answer session where she explained her motivation to become a filmmaker. “When

I started going to the movies when I was 7 years old, I saw the stereotype of Hollywood’s notion of black people. We were always stupid. We were always shuffling along,” Anderson told the audience. “It was my childish idea that I would become a filmmaker and show black people as they really were to mitigate the terrible image of us that Hollywood had on the screen.”

Hargrove hopes to digitize some of Anderson’s work for LancasterHistory’s collections in addition to materials that document her early life in Lancaster. Beginning on Friday, Nov. 17, Anderson will be featured among other artists in the exhibit “Black Lancastrians in the Arts: A Lasting Legacy” at LancasterHistory.

Noise from pg 3 know,” said Brown, who has been rehearsing with the children. Familiar songs such as “Jesus Loves Me,” “This Little Light of Mine,” and a Noah’s Ark song some people will recognize from attending church camp will be included. Children who are taking part will rehearse one final time at 9 a.m. on Nov. 12. “The focus of the entire service will be on kids,” explained Brown. “Kids will lead the service with their voices.” Brown noted that the band will sup-

port the singers but that the children will also use a variety of percussion instruments, such as shakers and tambourines, during worship. A luncheon in the fellowship hall, which will also feature a few children’s games, will follow the service.
