what was going on overseas.”

“Ihave

been a re-enactor my entire life,” said Erin Myers, who joined her parents as a Revolutionary War re-enactor at the time she was born. Her father later began taking part in re-enactments of events of the Civil War, World War I, and World War II.

As a teenager, Myers became interested in swing dance and attending World War II events for fun. “I started collecting things from that time period with no intention of doing anything with them except using them for décor,” recalled Myers. But then she started accompanying her father to historical societies and the Reading Air Show, taking along her collection to show attendees and teach them about World War II.

Myers said there were not a lot of woman re-enactors for World War II, and no one was doing an impression of the woman ordnance worker, better known as Rosie the Riveter. Myers was inspired. “It was a large part of the war, but it’s underrated,” she said. “It’s not something we talk about as much as we talk about

The result was that Myers became a re-enactor and educator, bringing Rosie the Riveter to life and educating those she meets about the role of women who replaced men in factories when duty called. Myers will join other re-enactors at the second Lititz Historical Foundation World War II Day event, to be held on Saturday, Oct. 1, from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. in the Mary Oehme Gardens, located behind the Lititz Historical Society at 137 E. Main St., Lititz. The free event will also include authentic World War II-era displays and artifacts; items that were once owned, used, or worn by the soldiers who served; and “The American Home Front,” a full-size, room-by-room walk-through of a typical 1940s home.

To become a Rosie impersonator, Myers began collecting more artifacts and purchasing clothing suitable for a costume. “It’s been more than 15 years now, and it has really evolved,” said Myers, who has a vintage bike she sometimes rides at re-enactments. At the Lititz event, she plans to give short presentations about contributions women made during the war

and to show items she will bring. She has authentic items that people can look at and even touch, along with a few reproduction items. Among these are toiletry items like makeup and nail polish remover. “People love comparing what they know today versus what they had back then,” said Myers. She also will bring tools that a woman ordnance worker would use, including a welding helmet, a drill, and a soldering gun.

Myers noted that one of the women she will present alongside does a nurse impression. “She has a small footlocker with items from the nursing field,” said Myers, who said that the footlocker, which includes photos and a uniform, was donated by a family in Lititz. The items belonged to a woman who was a member of the Women Accepted for Volunteer Emergency Service (WAVES). The program, a division of the U.S. Navy, was created in 1942 by President Franklin Roosevelt.

“We all forget things like where we put our car keys,” said Tina Bellanca, organizer of A Race to Remember 5K, which is dedicated to the memory of her husband, Gary J. Bellanca who developed dementia at the age of 54 and died in 2021. “But you know what to do with (your keys) when you find them,” she continued. “A dementia patient will not know how to start the car, or if they start it, they don’t know where they’re going.” Myers portray Rosie the Riveter as part of the second annual Lititz Historical Foundation World War II Day.

Giving women an opportunity to hope again. That’s part of the mission of North Star Initiative (NSI), a nonprofit that works to combat human trafficking. You can help support that mission by attending the Tapas Shindig. The fundraising event will be held on Friday, Oct. 21, from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. at The Junction Center, 1875 Junction Road, Manheim.

In late summer of 2021, artist Lisa Madenspacher was contacted by the Long’s Park Amphitheater Foundation to create a painting to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the amphitheater, which has been home to the Long’s Park Amphitheater Summer Music Series since 1962.

Madenspacher reacted positively to the request. “I was delighted to be asked,” recalled Madenspacher, who devoted much time that fall to completing the painting, which she presented to the foundation in January.

In celebration of the organization’s anniversary, a gala and art auction will be held on

Friday, Sept. 30, from 5:30 to 9 p.m. at The Trust Performing Arts Center, 37 N. Market St., Lancaster. A highlight of the auction will be the sale of Madenspacher’s rendition of the amphitheater during the annual July 4 concert, which features fireworks.

Madenspacher initially approached the project by visiting the park and taking photos of the amphitheater. Although impressed with the architecture, she struggled to get a photo that pleased her. “I spent about three hours in that park and took a million pictures,” recalled Madenspacher. “Then I went around to the other side, the angle that you see in the painting, and suddenly it

looked sleek and cool.”

Madenspacher went to work re-creating the image with her own hand. “I did several initial sketches and watercolors trying to come up with an idea,” she said, noting that she originally focused on the band and the music. “It just wasn’t working.” Madenspacher talked to her daughter, artist Adrienne Judge, known for her 3-D creations featuring flowers. “I asked my daughter, whose opinion I have come to trust, and she suggested that I focus on the crowd,” said Madenspacher. “I took it from that standpoint and once I did, the focus became the amphitheater with the crowd surrounding it.” From there, Madenspacher added person-

alities to the members of the crowd. “It was great fun,” she said.

Choosing the July 4 setting was something Madenspacher called a “no-brainer.” “That’s the peak of the season,” she said. “It’s festive.” Adding that she knew the evening setting with the fireworks and flag would bring the painting to life, she stated, “I wanted something eye-catching and hopefully breathtaking, so I incorporated the nighttime fireworks.”

Madenspacher estimates she spent about 60 hours on the painting, noting that she worked on it between other projects. “That’s the way I work, particularly when it’s (a) conceptual (work),” she

explained. “You block it in, and then you make some changes. You refine it, and step away for a week or two and see what it needs and then go back.” Madenspacher believes this method enhances the creative process.

“You go back to it with a different perspective, and it helps tremendously,” she said.

CROP Walk Will Celebrate 50 Year Anniversary

BY ADRIAN ESCHENWALD

The annual Lancaster CROP Hunger Walk will be held on Sunday, Oct. 16, at Annunciation Greek Orthodox Church, 64 Hershey Ave., Lancaster. Registration will begin at 1 p.m., followed by the start of the walk at 2 p.m. This year will mark Lancaster’s 50th CROP Walk, and the celebration of the anniversary will occur both before and after the event.

The event is one of the numerous walks that are held across the United States throughout the year that share a primary goal: raising awareness and funds for poverty and hunger worldwide. When Lancaster’s walk first began at Annunciation Greek Orthodox Church, the course of the walk led participants through the city and out of the West End. This year, walkers will travel to Buchanan Park and along College Avenue to Pearl Street, ending back at the church.

“As we’re walking through these neighborhoods, people will ask us what we’re doing and often donate,” said Chris Rankin, a longtime participant of the walk who has served as the chair of the planning committee for the last six years. “Some people have to walk for miles to get food, clean water and other

basic necessities. We walk because they walk.” All of the proceeds from this year’s walk will benefit two local nonprofits: 25% will be donated to Lancaster Food Hub for use locally and 75% will go to Church World Service of Lancaster. Last year’s CROP Walk raised over $34,000, and the goal for this year’s walk has been set at $50,000. Donations may be made directly to walkers during the event or online at https://tinyurl.com /cropwalkdonate.

The first CROP Walks were held in Bismarck, N.D., in 1969 and York in 1970. In the decades since, the movement has spread across hundreds of communities and raised millions of dollars.

This year, the Lancaster event will celebrate its 50th anniversary and recognize the Rev. Alex Veronis, who served as the chairman of the walk for 41 years. Veronis is the longest-serving chairman in the history of the CROP Walk, and first became involved in 1973, when participants of the walk passed through Lancaster on their way from Pittsburgh to Philadelphia.

Veronis and his family hiked along Route 30 with the walkers, and he chaired the event in Lancaster the following year.

Celebrations will begin

prior to the event and resume after the conclusion of the walk, and will include food and music. Matt Barcaro of WGAL will be the event’s master of ceremonies and Rick Santos, CEO of Church World Service, and Lancaster Mayor Danene Sorace will be in attendance.

The CROP Walk offers a variety of ways for people to participate. Families can walk the route with younger children in strollers alongside people who wish to run the course. For those unable to complete the nearly 3 miles, a short walk consisting of four laps around the parking lot of Annunciation Church will be available. “My favorite aspect of the CROP Walk is that it brings people together from various faith traditions to

Tina includes information about dementia in all the information she provides about A Race to Remember, which will be held in person on Saturday, Oct. 29, beginning at 9 a.m. at Reidenbaugh Elementary School, 1001 Buckwalter Road, Lititz. Registration on the day of the race will be held from

7:45 to 8:45 a.m. A discount will be available to those who register prior to Sunday, Oct. 23. Awards will be given to the top overall male and female finishers and to the top finishers in six age groups.

Gary, the founder of LMI Advertising in East Petersburg, was first diagnosed with earlyonset dementia in 2007. “We had no idea what to expect or what would happen to him or our life,” said Tina, who worked with Gary at the advertising agency. She said the couple sought out clinical trials, but nothing worked. A little over three years after Gary was diagnosed, his behavior began to change. Gary was re-diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia. Tina explained that this rare form of dementia affects speaking, spatial concepts, walking, language, decision-making, and comprehension. “It’s a progressive illness,” said Tina. “There are no FDA- approved medications to treat it.”

Tina chose to keep Gary at home, serving as his caregiver whenever she was not working at the agency. “Dementia patients thrive in environments where they are familiar,” she explained. “Gary heard my voice and was around me every day.

In my heart, I believed that was something that helped him survive 14 years.”

As owners of an area business, Gary and Tina were active in the community. “We were involved in supporting causes,” said Tina, who mentioned the Sertoma Club and Hospice & Community Care of Lancaster County as causes they championed. “We knew we could help from a communications and marketing standpoint,” said Tina. They also loved running, so it seemed logical to combine raising awareness and funds with a road run. This will be the 10th time A Race to Remember will be held. The activity has helped to educate local runners and others about dementia, and it has raised more than $544,000 for the Alzheimer’s Association.

Readers who would like to learn more or register for the

race may visit www.lmiadvertis ing.com/AR2R. More information about dementia is available from the Alzheimer’s Association Greater Pennsylvania Chapter at 800-272-3900.

Africa Association of Bible Schools (AABS), directed by JC Ebersole, will host its sixth annual fundraising

The evening will feature networking time, a silent auction, tapas and mocktails, followed by a program, a live auction and dessert and coffee.

This is the fourth year for the Tapas Shindig, said Janelle Esbenshade, interim executive director of NSI. “In 2019, we wanted to create an event that was nontraditional from the typical sit-down dinner experience,” she explained. “(We wanted) to offer individuals an opportunity to connect with one another in the community over good food and drinks while learning about the mission of North Star and how they can help support survivors of sex trafficking.”

NSI was founded in 2010 with a goal of providing physical, psychological, emotional and spiritual care with a Christ-centered focus. The organization operates The Harbor, a restoration home and program for female survivors of human trafficking.

“The program is strengthsbased, tailored to the survivors’ individual needs and matched to their current stage of change,” Esbenshade stated.

“Each woman participates in individual and group therapy; has access to basic medical, dental and legal services; and receives an education and jobskills training. Our goal is for each survivor to leave The Harbor fully restored so she can return to the community and enjoy a life of sustained independence.”

NSI estimates that tens of

thousands of people are victims of sex trafficking in the United States, and the organization turns away up to 10 survivors a week due to lack of space. To serve more survivors, NSI launched a capital campaign to raise funds to build the Survivor Center adjacent to The Harbor. Along with providing restoration services and treatment for local survivors who do not require housing, the center will now house NSI’s offices and programming, allowing an 80% increase in occupancy at The Harbor.

Esbenshade said the Tapas Shindig will allow people to celebrate the completion of the Survivor Center and will help to continue to raise awareness of the need for NSI’s services. “Come for a fun evening and connect with the community to better understand the issue of sex trafficking happening all around us,” she remarked, “while hearing stories of hope, healing and restoration.”

The registration deadline for the Tapas Shindig is Friday, Oct. 7. To register, visit https://bidpal.net/nsi or text NSI to 243725.

Dueck will show her watercolors as well as her fiber art, which includes many quilted wall hangings. Her paintings cover a variety of subjects, including florals with some flowers from the Alps, domestic animals and local scenery. Her quilted items use varied fabric scraps from other projects.

Dueck is a native of Paraguay

and spent her formative years in South America. As a young woman, she moved to and became a citizen of Canada. She moved to the U.S. in 1967 and later received her citizenship. In addition to pursuing her own art interests, Dueck has given instruction in drawing and painting, including classes at Landis Homes. She is a longtime volunteer at the Material Resources Center in Ephrata and a member of Akron Mennonite Church.
