Escape from la hershey7/27/2023 ![]() There is a large pet and aquarium store and just a little bit of everything with quite a few places to grab a bite to eat or a snack. Fresh baked goods from Flecks ( still going strong) Cheesecakes are now $8.20 and single sticky buns are $2.50 Lou's surplus is in a new location around corner from old place. Some new and some that have been here for years. ![]() Nice visit however not as busy due to 4th of July holiday! Inside part of the mart there are lots of neat stores. I will come back to explore/enjoy more of the park. This must be a good place to go fishing as I saw a guy carrying some fish back to his car by the roadside. Or just picnic at one of the parking & picnic areas for your convenience. In summer, it will be a great park to bring kids to have fun in the water while sitting on one of the benches built by the creeks. And the running creeks or streams you would pass by adds to the serenity. It’s such a pleasant hike with birds chirping, spring flowers blooming, trees turning green all along. We parked at #16 and took the White-Yellow-Blue Loop Trails, with a 6.9 miles today (). So there were quite some elevations going up and down the mountain trails. Otherwise you may end up driving another 10+ minutes to meet your people.īefore I came for the group hike this morning, I thought this park is as “flat” as South Jersey. So if you need to meet with a group, better share a specific spot or pin it on maps. And I certainly hope the curators of this museum have a change of heart and start to tell the rest of the history of Lancaster.įirst, this is a huge park with lots of parking and picnic areas marked by numbers. Once more "Critical Race Theory" being shoved down peoples throats. This isn't the first time I have seen this in a museum lately. Once more what should have been a museum that told the whole story of Lancaster and all its peoples instead "rewrote history" by its single empahasis of politically charged events. 1) event of the killing of native Americans in the 1760s 2) the civil war period and slavery in the 1860's and 3) the civil unrest in the 1960's. Who settled in Lancaster since it first became a town? What it was like to live in Lancaster? Instead there was one room and it chose to focus on 3 "events". Hoped to see photos and artifacts documenting the neighborhoods, places where people worked, played, community organizations, churches etc. Was looking forward to a seeing a museum that documented the experiences and lives of the people who settled in Lancaster and made this their home. You can tell they enjoy their jobs.Visited the Lancaster History Museum in April 2022. (They do give notifications at 30 kin, 15, and 5 min)ĭefinitely in the top 5 rooms we've done! Both game masters were friendly, kind, and encouraging. (Nothing more frustrating than not knowing what to do with information) Very well put together rooms! These are the first rooms I've done without a running timer, and honestly I think it helped not constantly watching the clock count down. Not many real "logic leaps" and there was a clear indication of what to do with information. Wow! I've done 30+ rooms, and the immersion was tremendous. We did the Museum of Magic and the 1920s investigation. Without hesitation, Josh canceled my booking for December and told me to reach out when we were able to reschedule.įinally, everyone was healthy and we rescheduled. Having done several escape rooms, I was unsure how that situation would go, as I know the no refund policy. ![]() Unfortunately, due to Covid, we were forced to reschedule due to quarantining. I would recommend the one at Refreshing Mountain too!īooked two rooms here for December. ![]() The lady did take our picture though as we excited which was nice. (We've had that courtesy shown us before in other escape rooms) but there were people waiting so we did not get closure on the story so it ended very anticlimactically and I think there could have been a little more "empathy" around that closure rather than "times up" type of thing. The only thing I would have liked is for the host to show us the items that would have unlocked the the steps we didn't get to. I would recommend 4 people to solve this one. We did not solve it - probably were 3-4 clues from the end. We asked for many clues compared to other ones we've done because with two people it was just hard. Due to covid, there was only two of us, so it ended up being pricey for two people ($100) but I'm excusing that to support a local business.
