Annual PA Farm Show is a must see!…read more I believe this event is hosted every winter beginning in January. Event is indoors! I also think this show is the biggest indoor one in the USA! Food here is surprisingly good. Sure, some food is more carnival/fair food. But there are also unique options like potato donuts, pierogis, local fresh fruits, and excellent local milk shakes. Event is no cost and plenty of parking options - make sure to look at their website. There are also unique shopping options. For things to do, you can watch shows of the animals, go to petting stalls where you can pay to hold or play with certain smaller animals, or go to stalls when the show animals and talk with their owners.

They have handicap accessible parking and seating which is a plus. The ramps in the stadium are surprisingly gentle. I also appreciate that the stairs aren't steep and the seating is pretty comfortable. The stadium boasts that it's cashless but some stands do accept cash. The new lighting is great. It cut down on the mayfly issue considerably! I'm loving the support for local businesses. This is the first large center I've gone to that offered Middlesworth chips as opposed to a national brand. Lots of adult beverage options if that's your thing All and all, just a really pleasant and comfortable experience. You should come out to support our local baseball team!! I don't think you'll be disappointed, they're pretty awesome.

On a small, side street stands a brick building. Black shutters hug the windows while the flower…read morewindow boxes above loom over the sidewalk below, waiting for an audience. A Historic Marker proclaims that a famous puppeteer was born nearby. The white door left slightly ajar wears a sign, "Sold Out." Some places might feel forlorn wearing those words, but not here--this is the home of Lancaster Marionette Theater. From the moment you walk into Lancaster Marionette Theater, the magic surrounds you, and what Robert Brock has created on Water Street in historic downtown Lancaster is something out of a storybook. From the John Durang Puppet Museum, to the Backstage Tour, and most of all to the delightful marionette performance itself--everything about this charming building is full of Brock's heart and soul. When I first heard about this small but quaint theater, it gave me visions of memories growing up watching The Sound of Music. We all remember the famous scene of Maria and the children performing their marionettes while singing "The Lonely Goatherd." When I ordered tickets to see Peter Pan, I did not know what to expect but I was looking forward to sharing this experience with my twelve-year-old son. Brock, a native of Lancaster, fell in love with theater and puppets as a little boy when his dad made a puppet play theater for his sister one Christmas. As an adult, he went to Boston Conservatory and majored in Music Theater. In 1990, Brock's Hole in the Wall Theater opened with hand puppets, but when his shoulders gave out, he switched to all marionettes ten years later. January of this year, the name was changed to Lancaster Marionette Theater, and with it came renovations including a new "green" updated lighting system. There are so many parts of creating each show. Making wooden carved puppets, creating patterns for costumes, cutting out the material, sewing clothes, sculpting clay for the heads, painting the marionette, writing the script--these are just a few of the steps Brocks takes. Perhaps that is what makes this small theater so unique. The audience gets the chance to meet the founder and artistic director, Robert Brock, during the Backstage Tour. While learning that it takes him 50-60 hours to build each marionette, audience members feel Brock's charisma and passion for the theater. During the tour that day, Brock told the crowd about a project he is currently working on about dinosaurs. While he still performs some of the same shows each year, he continues to create new ideas. My son and I arrived that Saturday in October for the last performance of the year for Peter Pan. There was a large group of young children attending, and the theater has a policy about children being quiet during the performance. This policy was explained and delivered from one of the staff before the show, standing right in front of the stage, and it was aimed at the children so they could understand. Somehow--it worked. I did not hear a peep from the children throughout the 35-minute show. Brock explains on his website, "Shari Lewis used to say, 'Never write down to children.'" Perhaps that is the key. We left that day with a new appreciation for puppets. It was amazing how Peter Pan was brought to life with just one man--with music, strings and some pixie dust.

All enjoyed themselves. The pre-show backstage tour is fascinating to them because it also includes jnfo on how the artist makes the puppets so don't miss out on that.

It is a very small theatre which means every seat is a good one.

A Perfect Night with the Lancaster Stormers at Penn Medicine Park…read more Last night's trip to see the Lancaster Stormers was everything you want in a summer evening--great baseball, friendly people, and unbeatable value. We sat in the second row behind home plate for only $18, and I mean right there--close enough to hear every pitch and feel the energy of the game. It was like stepping back in time to when baseball was pure, fun, and affordable. Penn Medicine Park, formerly Clipper Magazine Stadium, is a gem. Clean, welcoming, and filled with fans who love the game. The Stormers play hard, the crowd gets into it, and there's a real sense of community throughout the ballpark. You're not just watching baseball--you're part of it. One unexpected highlight? The house specialty drink: White Birch. It comes in a 12-ounce can and is a magical little elixir--5% alcohol, but smooth and sweet like an old-school birch beer. It's the kind of drink that sneaks up on you in the best way, and it fits the whole ballpark vibe perfectly. Cold, nostalgic, and a little bit of fun in every sip. If you've never been, grab a ticket, grab a White Birch, and get ready for a night of baseball done right. I'll definitely be back.

Food options were nice and not crazy expensive. They had all these freebies - baseball caps, pens, pencils, lanyards, ponchos, even candy! I don't know, though, if this was a special thing or is every game. There was a lot to hold an 8-year- old's interest- fun games and silliness between innings. The Saturday fireworks were canceled due to lateness of the game (rain delay) and the noise ordinance in the city, but all were given the opportunity to come back for free to another game. I mean can you ask for anything more? My daughter, not a baseball fan, said "this was a lot better than I imagined."

If you contact the Heat general manager, he'll be able to set you up with any packet you may want. The games are often high scoring with the Heat getting better each season through management of Pat Healey. We are hopeful that in time the Heat will be reliving its glory days of old! The tickets are often between 15-20 dollars but special deals are often available. The venue is pleasant enough with concession stands where you can buy all kinds of drinks, including beer, foods and snacks. Be prepared to bring some wipes for your seat if you attend a game shortly after the Farmshow in January due to dusty conditions.
