When members of the Rotary Club of Lancaster Sunrise were searching for a new fundraiser, after COVID-19 restrictions made it impossible to hold their Literacy Bike Ride or annual car show, they looked for something with expanded appeal. “The ride is for bike riders, and the car show is for people who like cars,” said Bill Weik, adding that the event is desgned to appeal to adults of all interests.

The Fall Festival will officially be held for the first time this year on Saturday, Oct. 9, from 2 to 7 p.m. at Aberdeen Acres, 406 Aberdeen Road, Elizabethtown. The event, which is designed for adults age 21 and over, will include live music; food; beer, wine, and other beverages available for purchase; and silent and live auctions. Dillwood Band, a three-piece string band, will play from 2 to 4 p.m., and Mama Tried Band, known for soul, funk, and rock, will play from 4 to 7 p.m. Local television reporter Meredith Jorgensen will serve as master of ceremonies.

A variety of fall-themed food items will be a focus of the event, with Michelle Gilbert of Gilby’s Café serving as chef. “We will be smoking the pork and the beef brisket ourselves, and there will be homemade smoked mac and cheese,” said Weik. Also on the menu will be hamburgers, hot dogs, chili, chicken corn soup, and fried food items such as mozzarella sticks and onion rings.

Weik described two of the experiences that will be auctioned in a live fundraiser at the event. “One will be a Valentine’s Day weekend in New York City,” he said, noting that the package will include dinner, tickets to a Billy Joel concert, two nights at a Hilton hotel, and roundtrip transportation by Unique Limousine. A second item will be a Night on the Town in Lancaster, featuring dinner for six at the Belvedere, six tickets to the Fulton Theatre, beverages at The Exchange, and Unique Limousine transportation. Jewelry from Vincent & Company will go up for bids as well. A silent auction will feature up to 15 items, including themed baskets.

Funds raised by Sunrise Rotary are used for a variety of local causes, including student scholarships for Manheim Township and Lancaster Catholic students, as well as grants to the LancasterLebanon Education Foundation, UDS Service Dogs, and the Lancaster Early Education Center. The club has also specifically helped provide backpacks and school supplies to Manheim Township students, given funds to the Carter and MacRae Tutoring Program, and supported Power Packs.

Several local organizations have signed on as sponsors of the event, including Lancaster County Motors Subaru, Penn State Health, and Highmark.

Tickets, which are necessary to attend the event, may be purchased at Evenbrite at https://bit.ly/3rUk0GL. Outside food and beverage items will not be permitted.

The Rotary Club of Lancaster Sunrise will hold a Fall Festival fundraiser in Elizabethtown.

To draw attention to the participating artists, organizers have been spotlighting artwork in Facebook posts. “It’s been fun getting the pictures of the artisans and what they do,” said Bradley. She pointed out that the original show in 1999 attracted those who worked in traditional crafts such as scissor cutting, handcrafted books, theorem painting, baskets, and wildlife art. “I think our (2021) show reflects more the crafters and artisans that are out there (now),” she noted.

Maggie Spike To Perform At Park

The singer-songwriter duo Maggie Spike will perform on Sunday, Sept. 26, at 2 p.m. at the Eicher Arts Center, 409 Cocalico St., in Ephrata Borough’s Grater Park.

Maggie Spike consists of Eric and Peggy Gernerd. They will play several stringed instruments, performing both original compositions and covers of songs by others. Their repertoire spans genres such as folk, rock, jazz, reggae, Celtic and world music.

The duo will play on the deck of the historic Eicher House. Audience members are urged to wear face masks and bring folding chairs with them for outdoor seating.

Admission is free, but donations to the nonprofit Eicher Arts Center Inc. will be accepted. The performance is part of the Eicher Arts Center’s 2021 schedule of free Sunday afternoon cultural and entertainment events.
