Corn Roast 2026
What an awesome day?! The weather was perfect, food was delicious and the pool was ROCKIN’! We even convince Nicklas Boys Jimmy & Jeff to jump in from their former lifeguard post!
Easter 2026
Just a few photos from Easter festivities at Greenwood Hills and Locked Antlers.
Jim Shira Graveside & Family Picnic
Dr. James William Shira, “Jim”, went to be with his Lord and Savior on Friday July 18, 2025 at the Chambersburg Hospital. At age 92, he was days away from his 93rd birthday on July 24, 2025. His gentle, loving spirit and kind soul will be greatly missed by many.
We had a beautiful graveside service for Jim followed by a family picnic at the home of John "Fudge" and Kristin Nicklas. Ruth Kirkpatrick also celebrated her 80th birthday with her children, Anne & Andrew, and their families.
Oldies but Goodies
Here's a collection of really awesome family photos from the archives. If you are an iPhone user, you can add your family images to the collection. Just message Laura to be added to the shared album and add from there.
Locked Antlers
There's a small group working on the historical Locked Antlers, an old hunting camp in the Michaux / Caledonia State Forest. Reggie was a part of the hunting club and inherited the property as the "last man standing". He eventually sold it to DCNR after his retirement was lost following the sale of P. Nicklas Sons Furniture and eventual bankruptcy of its predecessor.
Thanks to Aunt Paula for the photos!
