Generations of Entrepreneurial Spirit Guide Collage Specialty Shop

BY CASEY NIXON | DIRECTOR, MEMBERSHIP & BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT

With York county’s history of entrepreneurship, you’ll find many of our businesses have inspired future generations to invest in our community.

Seeing this entrepreneurial spirit pass from generation to generation in many cases appears to strengthen the business’s commitment to our community, and Whitney Morgan is no exception.

As the current owner of Collage, a local gift shop located in the Colonial Shopping Center, Whitney comes from a family of local business owners – four generations to be exact.

Whitney’s great grandfather, Louis Hollander, owned Hollander’s Automotive which was located on South George Street in the 1950s. Her grandfather, Stanley Mailman, owned Mailman’s Department store in the 1960s-1990s. Stanley and Whitney’s father, Herb Morgan, opened stores all around York, Hanover and Lancaster during that time.

10 • YoCo CONNECT | FALL 2024 • Generations of Entrepreneurial Spirit Guide Collage Specialty Shop

But when the landscape of independent retail changed, Whitney’s family shifted to focus on other business ventures.

At this time, Whitney left York to study Fine Art at the University of Hartford, Hartford Art School. When she moved back to the states, she chose York for its familiarity and to be near family and friends. She immediately jumped back into the family business, which at that time was a store her dad opened in Lancaster called Savemart. But Whitney aspired to own her own store.

In November 2023, Collage celebrated its 40th Anniversary.

When the opportunity arose to purchase Collage, a local retail shop who also happened to be an advertising client of hers, Whitney took the plunge into entrepreneurship.

Whitney emphasizes that her commitment to her community stems from lessons from her father who instilled in her how important it is to give back to the community that supports your business.

“One thing I’ve noticed from day one at Collage has been the community support. I knew we would sell beautiful merchandise at Collage, but every day I get to watch people choosing to come to my store and spend a lot of time and effort picking out gifts and thinking of others,” she adds.

“I say I get to see the best of humanity, and to me this is the greatest gift of Collage and the York Community.”

Opening in 1983 by Janice Bortner and Jonell Hake, Collage called Downtown York home on King Street offering bedding and linens. In the mid-80s after a move to the current location Collage eventually expanded to offer gifts and clothing.

“When I bought Collage in 2009, I wanted to continue to build on what Janice had created during her 25 years as owner,” said Whitney. “But I also wanted to include my love of art and creativity, and make it a fun, eclectic, and affordable place to shop for all ages and genders.”

932 S George St, York, PA 17403 facebook.com/collageofyork |

“[Our community needs] more unity and understanding of other’s differences. No matter where you come from, how rich or poor you may be, what your gender or sexual orientation may be, or what your religion is, we are all human beings. I choose to run my business with respect for everyone and all are welcome through the doors of Collage.”

Drink Local, Do Good!

BY SULLY PINOS | EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, BLOOM BUSINESS EMPOWERMENT CENTER

WHERE CAN YOU FIND HOLLA? PA Wine & Fine Spirits Stores, and retailers across the US, as well as local restaurants

Spicy, Savory, or Sweet? These are some of the questions to ask yourself as you explore your next cocktail menu and see the Holla Vodka brand name, locally sourced in York County.

Holla Spirits, a producer of top-shelf quality vodka in 13+ flavors using mindful ingredients, has experienced a transformation since launching in 2013. The company was created by Patrick Shorb after he was diagnosed with two rare genetic diseases and is now a certified disability-owned business enterprise (DOBE) by DisabilityIN. As a growing family business, Pat enlisted the guidance of his father, Bill, to join their ownership and leadership team. Since 2019, the business has maintained and expanded its headquarters in the West Manchester area in York.

In the Fall of 2023, Holla Spirits secured a loan investment from the BLOOM Business Empowerment Center for support with payroll and a growing sales and marketing team to deploy their state and national growth model and inventory. With this investment, the company aims to create five new full-time jobs over the next two years. “Talent acquisition is a strategic imperative for Holla and the additional resources have allowed us to attract seasoned spirits industry associates from across the state,” said Pat. “It is especially gratifying to have them fully embrace the brand ethos and fun team culture in a highly competitive market.”

Most recently, Holla’s Watermelon Lollipop Vodka was used in naming PA’s cocktail of the year! Following this statewide designation, Holla announced that a donation would be made to “Uplifting Athletes,” a nonprofit that raises money to address rare diseases. Other local causes supported by Holla include “Pink Power” and the recognizable Pink Bottle, to help raise funds and awareness for those impacted by Breast Cancer.

Engaging with the Codorus Creek Corridor

BY DAVID GONZALEZ, JR. DIRECTOR, ECONOMIC INITIATIVES

The foundation of any transformative project, such as the Codorus Greenway, requires true, broad community engagement and adoption. The catalytic project through the City of York is positioned to be a 1.5-mile-long linear park, that improves the access, beautification, water quality, neighborhood connectivity, wellness, and flood prevention of the waterway. Below is a quick outline of how the project is already engaging various community partners and the momentum the project has garnered this year.

Codorus Corridor Summer Enrichment Program (CCSEP) In its second year, organized by Crispus Attucks York, the CCSEP engages students from across the City of York to immerse them in project-based learning using the vehicle of the Codorus Greenway project. This year, 16 students met over 6 weeks both in the field and in the classroom about the many different aspects of the project and the various disciplines involved.

Students met with architects, contractors, engineers, educators, environmentalists, historians, planners, government leaders, members of the YCEA team, and more. They learned firsthand the intricacies that go into a project of this scale from fundraising, planning and design, communication, economic analysis, and studies.

They also diligently researched and asked presenters detailed questions to gather critical insights on the project. All that knowledge sharing culminated in a community showcase program, where students shared their reflections and crafted exhibits that highlighted the findings from these young learnings.

18 • YoCo CONNECT | FALL 2024 • Engaging with the Codorus Creek Corridor

Codorus Creek Clean Up Led by Lower Susquehanna Riverkeeper Association (LSRA), in partnership with Penn State Master Watershed Stewards, Watershed Alliance of York, and YCEA a clean-up took place along the Codorus Creek in Downtown York on Saturday, July 27. The event falls in line with LSRA’s mission to improve the ecological health of the Susquehanna River watershed and the Chesapeake Bay in the interest of enhancing water quality, supporting aquatic life, and preserving waterways in the region.

Investing in the Codorus Creek Earlier this year, the Codorus Creek Beautification Project was awarded a $15 million Rebuilding American Infrastructure with Sustainability & Equity (RAISE) grant through the U.S. Department of Transportation. The RAISE grant builds on the $26 million already secured through additional public and private sources, bringing a total of $41 million in committed funding for the Codorus Greenway.

This award propels this project forward and ensures the return of the waterfront to its natural park-like environs, providing public access through the beautification of the city’s primary natural resource. The project’s Phase 1 start date is pending federal permitting approval, anticipating movement in early 2025.

Meet the New Owners Behind Wrightsville’s Half Nuts Popcorn Co.

BY BRENDAN SALYARDS I MANAGER, ECONOMIC INITIATIVES

In the Spring of 2024, Wrightsville’s Half Nuts Popcorn Co. relaunched with new ownership and just a few feet south of its former location on South Front Street, in Wrightsville. Gina Frey-Jones and her husband Tim sold Half-Nuts Popcorn Co. to Lori and Jason Capello at the end of 2023. Along with the brand, the popcorn, making equipment, and the recipes, the business also came with the single-story ranch-style house at 498 S. Front Street (just next door to Half Nuts Popcorn Co’s former location).

When Gina began considering plans to sell Half Nuts Popcorn, a business that she built for over 10 years, Lori and Jason leapt at the opportunity to purchase the business and keep Half Nuts Popcorn alive in Wrightsville. Gina and Tim worked to ensure a seamless transition and they introduced Lori and Jason to long-time customers and business partners in Wrightsville. “[Gina] and Tim are both just a phone call or a quick walk next door if we find ourselves with last minute and often “Half Nuts” questions (pun intended),” shared Lori.

20 • YoCo CONNECT | FALL 2024 • Meet the New Owners Behind Wrightsville’s Half Nuts Popcorn Co.

When it came to choosing York County, and Wrightsville specifically, Lori and Jason were taken in by the town’s charms. “I fell in love with the simplicity of Wrightsville…friendly waves and honks as neighbors drive by, kiddos riding their bikes down the street with fishing poles hoping for a big catch,” said Lori. Wrightsville’s salutes to our military and veterans throughout the borough was also impactful in their decision to embrace the town. “Our family is full of service members…

Jason himself is a Veteran, so we love to support our military in any way we can.”

Over the first and second quarters of 2024, Lori and Jason renovated the home at 498 S. Front Street to serve as the base of operations for the new River Rock Provisions: Home of Half Nuts Popcorn Co. The name reflects the commitment that Lori and Jason made to keep the tradition of Half Nuts Popcorn alive and their intention to expand the offerings available to customers. They continue to make all of the same flavors, using the same ingredients, recipes, and machinery. It’s clear that they’ve developed a passion for ensuring that the highest quality product is available for consumers.

As far as future growth of the business goes, Lori anticipates having online sales up and running this Fall, as they currently only offer counter service. In addition to expanding their offerings, Half Nuts Popcorn plan to grow their outdoor space to accommodate more seating for those to gather and enjoy their treats. “We’re planning for picnic tables for more seating, an area for pop-up events with other local businesses and even a watering hole for the dogs!”
