Bantam Jeep Heritage Festival Celebrates 10 years in 2020It’s hard to believe that it’s been 10 years since more than one thousand Jeeps invaded Butler County to attend the very first Bantam Jeep Heritage Festival. Since then, the Festival has expanded beyond anyone’s wildest dreams and has quickly become one of the largest Jeep-only events in the nation. In fact, in 2019, Jeep owners from 32 states traveled to Butler County, the Jeep’s birthplace, to participate in the Festival’s many activities and attractions.

The Friends of the Bantam Jeep Association is planning even more excitement for the 10th-anniversary event on June 12-14. Jeep owners who are participating in the Festival will have a chance to be part of some special activities that will only be available at the 2020 Festival. In addition, the popular Jeep History Exhibit will feature special Jeep models that have rarely been displayed together before.

“Ten years is a huge milestone, and we are excited that the Bantam Jeep Heritage Festival continues to be a place where Jeep enthusiasts from all over the nation gather together to share their passion with others who love Jeeps just as much as they do,” said Todd Wagner, president of the Friends of the Bantam Jeep Association.

The Festival features many on-and-off-road activities for Jeep owners who register their Jeep to participate in the event. Activities are geared for vehicles straight off the lot as well as those that have been customized to tackle challenging off-road trails and obstacles. “Bantam really has something for everyone,” said Wagner. “Those who attend the Festival will see practically every Jeep ever made since the 1940s. There will be pristine Jeeps accessorized with shiny chrome parts and the latest lights as well as Jeeps covered in mud from attempting the Festival’s mud pit.”

Some of the Festival’s activities for registered Jeep owners include a Poker Run, Mystery Road Rally scavenger hunt, State Park Scenic Tour, Best of Bantam show, Jeep Playground obstacle course, and various trail rides.

Those who don’t have Jeeps will have plenty to see as well. The Jeep History Exhibit features about 20 rare Jeeps along with the Festival’s Faces of Jeep display that showcases a museum-quality exhibition of Jeep grilles from several decades. It’s the largest display of Jeep grilles in the U.S. Those who appreciate military Jeeps that supported the U. S. Army in various wars will step back in time at the Military Encampment. Visitors can talk to individuals dressed in authentic military uniforms and see how soldiers lived during various wars.

Other fun includes shopping at more than 150 vendors who travel to

the Festival from all over the United States to offer the latest Jeep parts, accessories and Jeep-themed merchandise. “If a guest isn’t a Jeep enthusiast when they walk through the gate, they are bound to become one after just a few hours at Bantam,” remarked Wagner.

Other activities to enjoy are the Barbee Jeep Race where adults race each other down a hill in a child’s ride-on Jeep as well as Jeepardy games where enthusiasts can test their knowledge of Jeep trivia against other contestants. Merchandise, prize raffles, food vendors and more round out the Festival’s three-day offerings.

Evans CityEvans City might be a small town, but it plays

a big role in movie history. George Romero’s 1968 cult classic “Night of the Living Dead” was filmed here. In fact, the opening scene was shot in the Evans City Cemetery. Not long after that, Romero returned to Evans City in 1973 to film “The Crazies”, a movie in which the town was blown up!

Movie buffs and zombie fans alike flock to Evans City to relish in the town’s fascinating history with iconic horror movies, especially during ‘Living Dead Weekend.’ This annual event is yet another way Romero’s legendary film is revered.

Today, Evans City proudly honors its past with wooden zombie silhouettes, and its nickname, “City of Black Gold,” referring to a 1915 oil boom. Peculiar pop culture isn’t the only thing on the menu in Evans City.

Historic Harmony Take a step back in time with a visit to Historic Harmony, the site of western Pennsylvania’s first National Historic Landmark District. Like most, this quaint village will captivate you with its old brick and log buildings, unique shops, museums, and restaurants.

Harmony was founded in 1804 by German Lutheran Separatists seeking religious

freedom. The Harmonists, who believed Christ’s return was imminent, adopted celibacy to remain spiritually pure, but this also ensured the group’s eventual demise. After two hundred years, the society lives on through the historic architecture, landmarks, cemeteries, and events that celebrate the town’s heritage.

This charming town retains the old world architectural character of an old German village and includes more than 50 buildings,

nine of which are owned by the nonprofit historical society and preservation group, Historic Harmony. Another belief of the Harmonists can be seen in their cemetery located just outside of town—you won’t find any grave markers for the approximately 100

society members buried there. If you go for a visit, try your luck opening the cemetery’s one-ton stone gate that revolves evenly on its center.

Every year, thousands of visitors attend events like the WeihnachtsMarkt (German Christmas Market) and the Silvester New Year’s Eve Celebration, where you can ring in the New Year on German time at 6 PM in remembrance of the founder’s heritage.

EATAs you stroll through the town, you’ll also

discover incredible “foodie finds”.

#MoraineSP

A Look Back…Moraine State Park is not only a dynamic destination, but

has a pretty unique story that started about

20,000 years ago when

glaciers were present.

When the glaciers finally

retreated, they left behind

accumulated debris, which is called a moraine; and how

the park got its name.

In the late 1800s, wells were drilled (and later abandoned)

to extract oil and gas from the land. The rebirth of the

land was a direct result of English-American engineer and

conservationist, Dr. Frank Preston. He worked to form

the Western Pennsylvania Conservancy, which purchased

the land. The mines were sealed and the oil and gas wells

were capped. In 1968, the dam was completed and in 1970

Lake Arthur reached its full level. Moraine State Park was

dedicated on May 23, 1970.

Endless ActivitiesLocated in Portersville, the Park has become an oasis

for outdoor recreation in Butler County, and is easily

accessible off State Route 422 and I-79. The new off ramps

along Route 422 and I-79 make it especially easy to get to

the North Shore where you’ll find the Nautical Nature, an

enclosed pontoon boat that offers guided cruises along

Lake Arthur, bike trails, Lakeview beach and access to a

variety of hiking trails and public boat launches.

Hosting numerous events throughout the year, Moraine

constantly attracts thousands of guests nationwide

providing something for every outdoor enthusiast!

The main feature of Moraine State Park is Lake Arthur.

With over 3,000 acres of calm waters and 42 miles of

shoreline, visitors can enjoy the lake annually with a

variety of activities including fishing, boating, swimming,

windsurfing and more! Another unique way to enjoy

the lake is through standup paddleboarding. SurfSUP

Adventures provides standup paddleboarding lessons,

guiding, eco-tours, board rentals, and sales.

Glade Run Lake

Located in Middlesex Township, Glade Run Lake is a 52-acre man-made lake, surrounded by luscious woodlands and farmlands. Used

for recreation, conservation, and education this beautiful lake offers fishing, motorless boating and has become a wonderful attraction for families and tourists alike.

In 2011, the earthen dam was cracked and declared unsafe; the lake had to be drained. That same year, the Glade Run Lake Conservancy (GRLC) was formed. This nonprofit, grassroots community organization went to great lengths aiding in the park’s restoration. They restored the fish and avian population, created a 1.5 mile walking trail encompassing the lake, constructed a handicapped accessible fishing deck and more!

Since its reopening in 2017, the park has been transformed into a gorgeous oasis and flourishing habitat where visitors can enjoy the great outdoors in a tranquil and peaceful setting.

Jennings Environmental Education Center

Located in Slippery Rock, Jennings Environmental Education Center is one of Butler County’s most unique parks to visit. Situated

on 300 acres, Jennings provides a combination of protected prairie and forest and is the only protected prairie system in Pennsylvania. Visitors can hike year round on their 5-mile trail system through various terrains or stroll through the 20-acre prairie ecosystem, home to distinctive prairie plants and the endangered Massasauga rattlesnake (don’t worry, they are shy).

Not only can visitors hike along a variety of trails, but the Education Center provides information about the environment and covers topics like fossils, trees, wildflowers, ecosystems, maple sugaring and more. Visitors can learn more about this beautiful prairie and forest through their award-winning display! Exhibits can be viewed Monday through Friday from 8 AM-4 PM, and on weekends when programs are scheduled.

But perhaps the most popular time to visit is during “Celebrate the Bloom”, a festival in July hosted annually by Jennings featuring the bloom of their spectacular prairie flower, Liatris Spicata or Blazing Star. This free event features nature explorations, engaging demonstrations, local artisans, food vendors and live entertainment.

Preston Park

Let nature surround you at Preston Park’s 88-acre English

garden, consisting of luscious woodlands, walking trails, fishing ponds, wildlife, numerous unique plants and more! This gorgeous oasis offers a variety of recreational opportunities that can be enjoyed for free. From hiking, fishing, cross-country skiing, picnicking and birdwatching; Preston Park is the perfect place to photograph nature’s beauty or simply enjoy time outdoors.

The park offers tree-shaded picnic tables, gently sloped, well-marked trails, and a dog-friendly trail. Preston Park also features occasional theatrical performances by local production companies with the popular “Shakespeare in the Park” performances (be sure to check your local listings for dates and

times). Other points of interest include the Geography Lesson, the Hacienda, the Iron Gates, and the Coppices; all with a unique story to tell. The Park also has 40 types of evergreen trees located in the Arboretum, making it the largest concentration of its kind east of the Mississippi.

Named after Dr. Frank Preston, an English-born conservationist and expert in glass technology, he was instrumental in founding the Western Pennsylvania Conservancy. Dr. Preston lived on the grounds and utilized the space for his research.

Formerly a private residence, Preston Park was a gift to Butler Township in 2008 from the late Jane and Dr. Frank Preston. His laboratory and home are on-site and are available for guided tours. The tour is available at no cost, but registration is required and spaces are limited.

Take Hiking to a New Level

Grab your water bottle and hiking boots because it’s time to venture out on the North Country National Scenic Trail (NCT). This scenic

trail spans 4,600 miles over eight states from North Dakota to Vermont, and it can be accessed right here in Butler County! The NCT is the longest

National Scenic Trail in the National Trails System and is the only national trail to stretch west to east. Butler County is fortunate to have 265 miles of the trail in Western Pennsylvania. Winding throughout streams and rolling hills, the NCT is enjoyed year-round and runs through Jennings Environmental Education Center and Butler County’s main attraction, Moraine State Park. With several entry points for hikers, the trail offers diverse landscapes and beautiful views of Lake Arthur, protected prairies and the forest.

Operated by the Audubon Society of Western

Pennsylvania, Todd Nature Reserve, features six miles of scenic hiking trails, three streams, a man-made pond and provides a plethora of opportunities for exploring and birding!

Located in Sarver, Todd Nature Reserve consists of 334 acres

where visitors can take in the sights and sounds of nature all while enjoying tranquil walks along a variety of trails like their one-mile Loop Trail that runs around the circumference of the reserve or the Ravine Trail, which is their most difficult one and includes several small stream crossings.

The area is known to be a habitat for a multitude of birds. In fact, over 180 species of birds have been found on-site, providing important habitat for the pileated woodpecker, scarlet tanager, and Kentucky warbler. On Friday mornings from April-September, the Audubon Society conducts naturalist-led free “Birds and

More Walks” through the reserve giving visitors the opportunity to spot other animals like deer, bears and unique species of plants.

Todd Nature Reserve provides an exceptional experience for all outdoor lovers and is open year-round from dawn to dusk (except during deer hunting season).

Succop Nature Park

Operated by the Western Pennsylvania Audubon Society, Succop Nature Park,

is 50 acres of woodlands, gardens and lush meadows. Located in Penn Township, the property also contains two ponds, dog-friendly walking trails, and open natural spaces that can be used for a variety of outdoor activities and events. These areas offer a serene environment attracting visitors of all ages who seek to connect with birds and nature.

In 2019, about $3.5 million worth of renovations went into Succop Nature Park. Their barn from 1880 was transformed into an environmental education center with a state-of-the-art WindStax vertical wind turbine which generates 8%-12% of the total electricity for the site. Renovations to the T.W. Phillips Barn feature a large classroom on the lower-level, retail space, restrooms and an event space on the upper-level. Other new features at the park include a new parking lot and a nature play area.

Succop Nature Park was established for the purpose of providing an environmental and cultural education center for the community. They offer on-site classes open to the public, year-round naturalist-led free morning walks and more. One of the major events hosted by Succop is Maple Madness that takes place annually in March. During maple madness, visitors experience the sights, sounds, smells, and tastes of maple sugaring as they embark on a guided hike throughout the park followed by a pancake brunch.

Butler-Freeport Community TrailButler County’s only Rails-to-Trails trailThe Butler-Freeport Community Trail is a rail-trail, preserving the route of Butler County’s first railroad (1871), the Western Pennsylvania Railroad, which

limestone surface with a gradual uphill grade as it travels north (barely noticeable to walkers) and the converse downhill grade as it travels south (greatly enjoyed by bicyclists). Dogs are welcome but required to be on a leash and under the control of the person walking them on the trail.

Near the Herman trailhead, step from the trail into

Derailleur Bike Shop Café, which offers wholesome food and refreshing beverages, along with bike rentals, maintenance, repair, parts and gear.

Washington’s Trail1753In 1753, the imperial nations of France and Great Britain and the Native Americans all

claimed control of the Ohio Country, the area encompassing present-day western

Pennsylvania and eastern Ohio. Acting on orders from Virginia Governor Robert Dinwiddie,

twenty-one-year-old George Washington embarked upon a dangerous expedition north from Williamsburg to deliver a diplomatic message to the French ordering them to evacuate the region. Already the French had erected three forts to reinforce their claim to the area: Fort Presque Isle (Erie, PA), Fort LeBoeuf (Waterford, PA) and Fort Machault (Franklin, PA).

During his journey to the French forts in the winter of 1753-1754, young Washington encountered many hazards. There were excessive rains and vast quantities of snow. He was nearly shot by an Indian guide and nearly drowned in the icy waters of the Allegheny River near present-day Pittsburgh. When Washington returned to Williamsburg in January 1754, he reported to the governor that the French intended to remain entrenched in the Ohio Country. This marked the beginning of the military struggle known as the French and Indian War.

Blue road signs with Washington’s silhouette mark a commemorative trail throughout western Pennsylvania. (The trail is considered commemorative, as sections of the actual path are open to debate.)

Relive Washington’s first military expedition with Butler County Tourism’s Washington’s Trail Brochure, which will guide you along the drive-it-yourself tour, offering interesting history about this mission. There are also plenty of historical and natural attractions along the way!
