Motorcycle Rally, Neighborhood Gathering Planned In Creswell By Dayna M. Reidenouer
Saturday, Sept. 21, will be a busy day at Bethany Evangelical Congregational (E.C.) Church of Creswell, 1165 Letort Road, Conestoga. A motorcycle rally hosted by the Saddle Bag Riders will begin at 2 p.m., and a neighborhood gathering will run from 4 to 7 p.m. Motorcyclists should arrive at the church by 2 p.m. Riders member Nate Brubaker will lead a ride through southern Lancaster County and into York County. There is no cost to participate, but donations will be accepted for the Wounded Warrior Project. Road captain John Young reported that this will be the Saddle Bag Riders’ third ride. Last year’s event raised $300 for the Wounded Warrior Project. “It keeps getting bigger every year,” Young remarked. The ride will return to the church in time for the neighborhood gathering.
Motorcyclists and noncyclists alike are invited to come to the church’s pavilion to relax and enjoy a meal of pulled pork, hot dogs, chips, cookies, ice cream, and beverages. Marshmallows for roasting over a bonfire will be provided. Attendees should bring lawn chairs, and they may bring games or enjoy the ones provided. Kim Ream and Doris Haslam are the coordinators of the neighborhood gathering. The church had held a community day for several years, but it had been discontinued. There was interest in starting it up again, but in a new format. “We’re keeping it simple, somewhat old-fashioned,” Ream said. Everyone is welcome to attend. They do not need to live near the church. “Like Mr. Rogers used to say, you can be part of our neighborhood,” commented pastor Bob Haslam. There is no cost to attend the neighborhood gathering, but donations will See Creswell Events pg 5

Readers familiar with the LMQG may recall the annual bazaar that the group previously held. “We changed the name the third year to better reflect our show of modern quilts that we have created,” explained LMQG director of events Sue Althouse. “We have vendors that are artisans to appeal to everyone, not just quilters, hence the name Quilt Show and Artisan Market.” The vendors at the QSAM will include makers of pottery, wooden bowls and carvings, handweavings, See Quilt Show pg 6
