I'll be there! In fact, my wife and I are hosting this Fall Meet and if you have never been to Centre County, you are in for a treat. Just some of the things that we will NOT be doing for this meet: We are NOT going to take the 132 mile tour of the five covered bridges in Snyder and Union counties (next to Centre Co.); We are NOT going to have supper at the Elk Creek Cafe; We are NOT going to visit Victorian Bellefonte, home of seven state governors, and many fine examples of Victorian architecture; We are NOT going to visit the Amish in Belleville; and We are NOT going to lose any weight with The Tavern (home of unlimited side dishes), Meyer Dairy, and the PSU Creamery on this year's itinerary.

Send an email to me at fchammer1@aol.com and I will send you the websites of all the places we WILL visit and all the things we WILL do.
