Mount Joy Area Historical Society growing;
restoring building, planning trips, meetings
The Mount Area Histori-
cal Society is growing.
Founded six years ago in
1973, it now has close to 200
members.
The Society now has its
own meeting place, the
former Macedonia African
Methodist Episcopal Church
on Fairview Street near the
Lions’ swimming pool. The
building has been repaired
by volunteer members of the
Society. There is more work
to be done, and this will get
underway with a will in
September.
As explained by W.
Bernell (‘‘Bernie’’) Heisey,
the purpose of the society is
to collect and preserve the
history of Mount Joy and its
environs. The society « will
publish historical accounts.
‘““We want to get everyone
together with historical
interests,” says Bernie.
““We’re a functional group;
we're not just in the
building business.”
Each year the society
charters buses to take its
members to places of
historical interest: Haper’s
Ferry, New Castle, Del,
Philadelphia.
There are monthly meet-
ings on the third Monday of
every month. The next
meeting will be at the
society’s building on Sep-
tember 17 at 7:30 p.m.
Speakers are archaeologists,
genealogists, historians,
quilting experts.
Members may buy memo-
rabilia issued by the society:
in the past the attractive
items have been a mous-
tache cup, a letter opener,
an ad tray, an aluminum
serving tray. All the objects
are imprinted with the logo
crest of the society.
The society raises money
by selling refreshments at
auctions and sponsors a
chicken barbecue.
President is Bernie Heis-
ey, vice-president, Les
Breneman, treasurer, 0.K.
Snyder, and secretary, Vera
Gingrich

the historical society may be
