For those who didn’t have a bike, Recycle Bicycle was on hand with bikes for anyone wishing to borrow one.

Mayor Wanda Williams said, “I wanted to learn how to ride a bike again, I haven’t rode a bike in 50 years so it’s an opportunity now to come out and ride the bikes and enjoy the day.”

Ross Willard, Chief Mechanical Operator for Recycle Bicycle said, “They rode up to the civic center and back just to show that this beautiful park is fun to ride in.”

Recycle Bicycle also handed out bike safety information to children and parents.

Christmas Light Walk December 18th

Published On 11/15/2022

Happy holidays! Come join me on this leisurely paced walk where we’ll see one of the most beautifully decorated neighborhoods in the area. We’ll walk for about an hour and then have the option of going to Jo Jo-s Pizza for food and beverages afterwards.

Start time: 6:15 p.m.

Place: Fisher Park, 2000 Fisher Road (not to be confused with Friendship Park which is nearby)

Distance: 2-3 miles, with options for shorter distances

I recommend bringing a flashlight and wearing reflective clothing, such as your HBC vest.

Socializing afterwards at JoJo’s Pizza, 2210 Aspen Drive, Mechanicsburg. Please note that this is NOT the Jo Jo’s in downtown Mechanicsburg. Someone winds up at the wrong restaurant every year.

Watch the HBC calendar in case there is a cancellation due to bad weather or contact me directly. Marilyn Chastek 717-798-4537 mchastek2009@gmail.com

Hope to see you there!

After 18 years of cleaning up Texaco Road we picked up 87 cans, 58 plastic bottles and 1 large bag of trash. When will we learn to throw our trash in a can, not out the car window?

Thank you to our participants: Robin Rawdon, Susan Sleighter, Mary Beth Yasandritz, Edith Eckerle, Susan Tussey, Grace House, Tim and Cindy Hoehn.
