Dutch Wonderland
Website: https://www.dutchwonderland.com/
We will arrive by bus at 10 am
Since opening on May 20, 1963, Dutch Wonderland has consistently been recognized as a premier family theme park near Philadelphia, PA and has been voted one of the Top 5 Best Kids Parks in the World by Amusement Today magazine. We invite you to plan a visit to find out why generations of families have visited us and proclaimed us to be A KINGDOM FOR KIDS!
I dont know of a better way to wind down then to be at Dutch Wonderland and seeing the childrens eyes as we enter the park, and not only theirs but also the parents, and make our way to the Train. It is so cool to see the Santas and Mrs. Claus’s take their seat and ride the train around the park. This will be our third year and it is still as wonderful as the first. After the train ride we will tour the park, sit on a bench and greet the children or climb into a bumper car and I can tell you the kids love it.
Strasburg Railroad
Strasburg PA
Website www.strasburgrailroad.com
When you visit Strasburg Rail Road, the first thing you can expect is an authentic experience of a real steam railroad. The locomotives and passenger cars, (known as “rolling stock”) are not replicas, and our staff members are not reenactors. Strasburg Rail Road has five working steam locomotives and 20 operating passenger cars, including our President’s Car, First-Class Parlor Car, First Class Lounge, and our Dining Car. All equipment is restored and maintained on-site in our Mechanical Shop.
Turkey Hill Experience and lab
Website https://www.turkeyhillexperience.com/
The Turkey Hill Experience features interactive exhibits allowing you to learn about dairy culture, the story of Turkey Hill Dairy, and how the company’s ice cream and iced tea flavors are selected and created. You will truly experience what it’s like to be a Turkey Hill Dairy ice cream maker for a day, including the opportunity to create your own virtual ice cream flavor. In addition, you can sit in our vintage milk truck, milk our mechanical cows, star in your very own Turkey Hill commercial, and enjoy plenty of free samples of iced tea and ice cream! Visit the Turkey Hill Experience in Columbia, PA – right here in Lancaster County.
Village Green Miniature Golf
Strasburg, Pa
Website https://villagegreens.com
Here at Village Greens Miniature Golf, we like to think of ourselves as something more than just your typical mini-golf course. Nestled in the beautiful Pennsylvania countryside just west of Strasburg, we have the perfect setting for an amazing golf course. Both of our courses offer something unique, from golfing in mature woods surrounded by colorful flowers to listening to the gurgle of a rushing stream as it makes its way through our miniature mill’s waterwheel. Keep your eyes open and you’ll see fish, turtles, and many smiles coming from the happy golfers you encounter. We are proud to be locally owned and family operated. It makes a difference that our customers can see. Come out today to relax, get some fresh air, and have a great time!
Fashion Show
Fashion Show 2019

Wonder what Santa Howie and Santa Dan will have in store for us this year! We are back in the Palm Court for the Fashion Show on Saturday evening! Please feel free to email me if you have any questions! See me at registration in our Hospitality Room and let me know if you will be walking the “red carpet” and what you will be wearing!
