In less than two weeks the Farm Show Complex and Exposition Center in Harrisburg is undergoing a radical transformation: From a celebration of the state’s agricultural roots and heritage to the latest whizzbang cars headed to area showrooms.
Today marks the start of the annual Pennsylvania Auto Show, which, like years past, promises to have something for everyone, from the latest muscle cars from the American manufacturers, to people-movers from Honda and Toyota.
More than 500 new vehicles will be on display, a smorgasbord of vehicles from all corners of the earth. For the kids there is an entertainment area, and new this year is a “Powersports Hall” – opening Friday – with a collection of ATVs, boats, motorcycles and more.
Ford is back with its Ride and Drive event on Saturday and Sunday, allowing show-goers to take a spin behind the wheel of the blue oval’s latest vehicles. Show-goers will also have the chance to win one of several new or certified pre-owned vehicles worth at least $25,000 from various local dealerships.

Lancaster County is famous for the Mennonite and Amish quilts that are a symbol of the Old Order Communities.
Hand-made Lancaster quilts, often stitched with care by Pennsylvania Amish and Mennonite women, are excellent examples of the craftsmanship and quality that is common among Lancaster County artisans. While Amish quilts began solely as practical objects within the Amish lifestyle – they were usually made simply for warmth or for gifts or dowry items – they have evolved over time and are now regarded as works of art by people around the world.
Lancaster quilts make the perfect gift for others or as take-home remembrance for you and your family. In PA Dutch Country, you can find Mennonite and Amish quilts in the form of full-size treasures, smaller “quillows,” and even keychains. You’ll see them tucked in local stores with along other crafts, at Amish farmers’ markets, or in quaint quilt shops that sometimes offer an opportunity for a sneak peek into the art of quilting.
Because Pennsylvania Dutch Country has so many places to find these treasures, we developed our Amish Quilt directory to help you plan your shopping trip. You can even add Lancaster quilt locations to an itinerary plan that you can print and take with you, complete with driving directions from the Fairfield Inn & Suites in Lancaster.

It is 1939; America finds itself still gripped firmly by the calloused hands of The Great Depression. The American Paranormal Society (APS) has been re-energized by a shift in its mission. The Society will be using its considerable influence to help bring about a swift end to the downward economic spiral that has hobbled the American Dream and given rise to numerous opportunistic tyrants. The APS believes that the answers to today’s problems lie in the past. Why read dusty, old books, when one can speak directly with those who lived it?
This meeting’s importance cannot be overstated. This Depression can only be resolved with the help of those who survived comparable hard times in the past. It is time to call upon our ancestors for guidance.
Please accept this invitation to join us for a sumptuous four course meal as well as the opportunity to participate in a great cause of patriotism, to shine the beacon of hope into the darkness that envelops us all.
