Homeschool Students Will Present “Radio Daze” BY CATHY MOLITORIS
It’s “a bit of nostalgia mixed with patriotism, wrapped up in a hilarious storyline.” That’s how director Ginger Wayde describes “Radio Daze.” The play will be performed by students in the Elizabethtown
Homeschool Drama Program, part of the Life Enrichment Center (LEC) homeschool co-op in Mount Joy. The show will be performed at 7 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 18, and at 1 and 7 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 19, at Hope Community Church, 1806 Harrisburg Ave., Mount Joy. See Radio pg 5
Twins Brynlee and Renee Sattazahn visit with Santa.
Santa Will Visit The Library anta Claus is coming to town, and you can visit him at the Milanof-Schock Library. Santa will be at the library, 1184 Anderson Ferry Road, Mount Joy, from 1 to 3 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 26, and from 10 a.m. to noon on Saturday, Dec. 10. The visits are sponsored by the Mount Joy Chamber of Commerce, which has been holding the holiday celebration for seven years. “We are thankful to the library for helping us to host this annual event,” said Kerry Meyers, executive director of the Chamber. “Santa will be excitedly waiting to hear what each child would like for Christmas.” Along with sharing their wish lists with the jolly old elf, children will receive a holiday-themed coloring page, crayons and a cookie, courtesy of Chamber Diamond member and major sponsor Lanco Federal Credit Union. The credit
was actually a unanimous board decision, since it is a part of Mount Joy’s history.” Ornaments will also be for sale at the Chamber office, 62 E. Main St., on Tuesdays through Fridays from 10 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Meyers explained that hosting events like the visit with Santa is an important part of the Chamber. “The Chamber is all about giving back to the community for supporting our local Chamber member businesses,” she stated, adding that all Chamber events are free to the community. “We couldn’t do these free events without our Chamber members, Upgraded Chamber members and the support we receive from our members doing sponsorships for our annual fundraisers like our Chamber Giving Tree and Chamber chicken barbecue,” she shared. “The public support of our annual chicken barbecue is also a huge part of our annual fundraising.”
