Chamber Highlights – Thinking Spring!
As the weather warms, Wellsboro Chamber of Commerce is also warming up for some exciting outdoor events in April and May. Along with hiking, biking, fishing, and horseback, the Rail Trail will be opening again. Covered wagon tours start back up in May, as well. For more suggestions on area activities, you can pick up an Explore Wellsboro booklet (Spring & Summer 2016 edition) at most downtown vendors or at the Chamber of Commerce office.
Scheduled activities for the next couple months will include bird walks, hosted by Tiadaigton Audubon Society every Saturday, April-May. April 23rd, Little League is starting their season with a parade at 10am, beginning at Packard Park and continuing down Main Street. April 27th at 7pm, the Penn Wells is hosting the Laurel Festival Booster Dinner to raise funds for the upcoming Laurel Festival. The registration deadline for the dinner is April 18th. Tickets may be purchased through any Chamber of Commerce members.
As of May 6th, First Fridays will be held in downtown Wellsboro once again—attendees can enjoy sidewalk art, scavenger hunts, and local music. Also on May 6th, Emerge Healing Arts will be opening a boutique and gallery featuring pieces by a variety of local artisans. The Hamilton Gibson Children’s Choir Homecoming Concert will take place on May 15th at Mansfield University in the Steadman theatre at 2:30pm. And last—but certainly not least—the Step Outdoors Springfest is coming to Hills Creek on May 21st, 10am-3pm.
