Every booth has samples of most items they sale for the customer to try. Most of the booths are local people trying to make a living. If I lived in the area I would visit this market frequently and support the local economy.

Depending on when you visit the mansion, you will see different things. I've been here a few times. It's a beautifully restored old mansion with a great story behind it. You will wish that you grew up in it. At Christmas time, it is particularly pretty.
4. The Eichelberger Performing Arts Center

Reviewed By OBX717 - Newville, Pennsylvania
We have seen several concerts over the years at this venue and have never been disappointed with the performances. This visit we rocked out with the McCartney Experience which was fantastic.
Easy to find, easy to park and comfortable seats. We always try to park on the street so we do not get stuck in the off street parking lot after the performance and we always sit in the balcony, row CC when we attend shows here.
TIP ALERT: Balcony row CC is part of the walkway so it provides a little extra leg room to stretch out in once the show starts. Do not sit in balcony row AA if you are over 5'2", there is very limited leg room since this used to be an old high school auditorium. Also there is a rail in front of row AA which blocks part of your view of the stage if you sit in this row.
5. Longarm Reservoir

I been coming to the reservoir since I was a kid in the 70s. Great place for fishing. Boating is allowed but no gas motors, only electric or self propelled. Lots of wildlife everywhere. Well groomed paths to the water and easy access. There is also handicapped access ats the far end. Want to fish, walk, or just relax, this is a great quiet place to hand out.

7. Gettysburg Electric Map
Overall Ratings
3.5 based on 6 reviews
Originally built for the 100th anniversary of the Battle of Gettysburg, the Electric Map told the story of America's bloodiest battle to millions of Gettysburg visitors. After three years of community effort, 7.5 miles of wire and 632 new lights, the map is again able to tell the story of the most important battle of the Civil War.
Reviewed By SteveofPA - New Oxford, Pennsylvania
I remember seeing this at the Cyclorama in Gettysburg as a child. It was ashamed what they did to it by cutting it up and almost sending it to the junk pile. I commend its current owner for rescuing this piece of history. The sound and presentation is still that of the early 60s and 70s but it is part of history. Please support this restoration by visiting. It may not be impressive to all but remember its context and the deep explanation of the battle.
