Celebrate Fall At Haldeman Mansion BY CATHY MOLITORIS

Everyone is invited to Octoberfest Pirates Plunder.
Pirates Will Invade Elizabethtown
Elaine Jackson invites people to the Apple Fall Festival.
“This is a very family-oriented day,” said Elaine Jackson, event chair. “There are lots of games for children to play, and you can enjoy a beautiful view of the Susquehanna River.” Children’s festivities will include information about Johnny Appleseed, apple activities, a coloring station, Frisbee throwing, jumping rope and more. Food options will include grilled bratwurst, hot dogs, homemade baked beans, applesauce, cider, soup, chips and a variety of apple desserts. “We always use Groff ’s bratwurst,” Jackson noted. “The apples we use are donated by Masonic Villages.” Homemade baked goods will also be for sale. The festival will feature a silent auction of items donated by local businesses. “We usually have mums and other fall flowers, donated by River Road Produce in Marietta,” Jackson remarked. “Nissley Vineyards gives us tickets to events, and M&M Mars always donates to our auction.” See Fall pg 3

Raising Hope For Survivors
hoy, mateys! There be pirates in Elizabethtown. But don’t worry - these are friendly pirates. It’s all part of Octoberfest Pirates Plunder, which will take place on Sunday, Oct. 9, from 1 to 6 p.m. “If you are looking for an adventure, a fantasy-filled, familyfun outing, this is an event not to be missed,” said Amy McEvoy, a member of LIV-ETown, which is organizing the festivities. The idea for the event combines a traditional Octoberfest celebration with some unexpected visitors. “The theme is E-town was having an Octoberfest downtown when it was invaded by pirates looking for treasure and to recruit members into their pirate crew,” explained

For many cancer patients, the goal is to “ring the bell,” marking the end of treatment. As Kim Ramirez knows, however, survivors often incur extensive costs associated with after-cancer care. To remedy the problem, Ramirez formed Ta Ta Rebels Inc., a nonprofit that focuses on supporting breast-cancer survivors like herself. “We reached our five-year milestone last year,” Ramirez said of the organization.
