Lancaster Farming, Saturday, April 20, 2002-All
PLEASANT GAP (Centre Co.) Recently several people
with a common interest in preserving antiques decided to
form an organization called Nittany Farm Museum in
Pleasant Gap, close to State College. This nonprofit or
ganization relies on membership dues along with private
donations. One of the main goals is to provide a perma
nent place for antiques to be displayed in a museum for
the public to view year-round, but also provide land for
antique shows. The group signed a one-year lease agree
ment with a chance to purchase the 52-acre Smeltzer
Farm on 465 East College Ave. in Pleasant Gap. The farm
includes a large barn along with several out buildings and
a sided log house. The property has public sewer, water,
and natural gas at both ends of the property. It is conven
iently located within minutes of Interstate 80.
April 27-28 will feature the museum’s first event, an
antique tractor plow party along with antique displays
and horses at the Smeltzer Farm. On Saturday, April 27,
the show hours are from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Sunday hours
are 10 a.m. until 5 p.m. Saturday night from 6 p.m.-9 p.m.
there will be square dancing. There will be plenty of good
food, fun, and family entertainment. There will be plenty
of parking ($2 per car) and admission is free.
