    3. Hi Everyone, The Hancock County Convention & Visitors Bureau is planning a Fall Festival at Tomlinson Run State Park on 20 October 2001. The day will begin at 11 a.m. and last until 6:30 or later. Activities are to be held near the Goofy Golf Course and are planned for the entire day. These include projects for adults and children, a demonstration on cooking with and using herbs, draft horses working, a display on wool from the sheep to the finished project, old time machines, music during the day and displays of various types. The day will finish with bagpipes, a campfire done by the Boy Scouts complete with story tellers. It is hoped that enough interest will be generated to make it an annual event. If you live in this area please plan to attend. Tri-State Genealogical & Historical Society will be having a display there and will have the following publications available to pick up that day: History of Chester - Gateway To The West by Roy Cashdollar $25.00 History of Newell $15.00 Windows on Hancock County - Biographical & Local History for 150 Years 1850-2000 by TSGHS $20.00 Locust Hill Cemetery With Genealogical Notes (Grant District, Chester) $25.00 If you are interested in any of these publications, but can not stop at the Fall Festival, they may be ordered by mail.
