Colonial Day is a juried show reflecting the skills, arts and crafts of the early American period. Over 100 vendors, demonstrators and artisans line the historic main street the second Saturday of every September. A quilt designed and handstitched by volunteers is raffled off each year on Colonial Day. Other items such as PA German redware, tinware and chalkware are included in this raffle. We sell hot dogs, sausage sandwiches, funnel cakes, and pig roast sandwiches.
