STRIP CLUBS NEAR LOCK HAVEN PA FREE
There were free carnival rides for a week, and sporting events every day including baseball, canoe races, foot races. There were three parades, not just one - all the crafts in the railroad shops paraded, another parade featured nearby towns, bands and sports, and another parade included the social clubs. Local historian Charles Barnum, who is sharing this image with us, reports that three sets of stanchions, including the ones seen here, were set up to decorate the town for Old Home Week, which was an elaborate celebration. The roadway that crosses it, from left to right in the photo, is Huron Avenue. The street was tree-lined and unpaved back then, with plantings in the median strip.
The poker run will be held Friday morning and will have pilots fly off to different private strips to get their cards and those who win will get some good money in return.Įach day will close out with special musical guests who will perform, including the Rockin’ Rockers, Kristi Jean and Her Ne’er – Do – Wells, The Lindy Sisters, Western Range, and Phil Reeder.Here is Seventh Street in Renovo in 1908, all ready for Old Home Week. Garlic said that the average pot winnings are about $800. Those whose number is closest to the targeted pot will win half of the money. Flying about 100 feet above the ground, the balls will be dropped from the air in a Piper airplane. With the golf ball drop, Garlic will be selling numbered golf balls for $5 each throughout the week and the balls will be dropped Friday afternoon. Special events throughout the week include the golf ball drop, the spot landing contest, the annual poker run, and many others. The week-long celebration will be open to the public from 9 a.m. The Sentimental Journey Fly-In will start on Tuesday, June 22, and continue all week through Saturday, June 26. The club will also be displaying a special fighter Tri-Pacer from the war still intact with the machine gun and all. It is now one great big pilot/airplane reunion, she said. It eventually evolved into a combination of different types of planes and models that are not just the Piper Cubs or other related Piper models. People associated with Piper wanted to keep the Piper and Piper Cub legacy alive. The Sentimental Journey started out as a Piper Cub reunion and then grew from there, said Garlic. They will be participating in cooperation with the fly-in as well as having their own fly-out to different destinations,” explained Garlic. They will be holding their meetings in the Aztec Room at the Piper Aviation Museum. “We have the honor of holding their national convention during our annual fly-in. The convention will be bringing in about 50 more pilots, all showing off their unique short wing Piper airplane models that include Pacers, Tri-Pacers, Colts, Clippers and Vagabonds. This year, however, there is expected to be around 450 pilots visiting from all over, she said.Īlong with the fly-in, the Short Wing Piper Club will be having its annual national convention at the place where it all started. They form these friendships and most of them only get to see each other one week out of the year during the fly-in,” said Sentimental Journey coordinator Kim Garlic.Įvery year, an average of 350-400 pilots travel to Lock Haven for the special week-long celebration. All of the pilots that come are like one big happy family and have been coming here for about 35 years now. It has been a long two years and they are really anxious to get out and get flying again. “Pilots are chomping at the bit to return. After all that time, pilots are itching to get back in the sky and meet up for some good fun, food and fellowship. It has been a long two years since the last fly-in due to COVID-19 restrictions forcing cancellation of the annual event last year.
