People’s Choice has
‘something for everyone’
By G. KERRY WEBSTER
[email protected]
BOALSBURG — Thousands will descend upon the
grounds of the Boalsburg Military Museum Thursday,
July 14, through Sunday, July 17, for the annual People’s
Choice Festival of Pennsylvania Arts & Crafts.
The festival, which promotes only Pennsylvania artists,
crafters, food vendors and wineries, took root in the early
1990s. At that time, local artists took it upon themselves
and decided to start their own festival.
To committee member Sandie Biddle, there is a huge
difference between the two.
“First, I want to say that we’re not in competition with
Arts Fest,” Biddle said. “Having both events at the
same time is a wonderful boon to the Centre Region’s
economy. They are both getting people to come to
Centre County.
“But, what we offer at the People’s Choice festival is
an affordable, family-friendly alternative to the event
downtown.”
The event is free and open to the public, said Biddle, and
she encourages visitors to bring their children and their
dogs.
“There’s something there for everyone,” she said. “Kids’
day is every day at the People’s Choice Festival. There
are tons of things going on throughout the weekend.”
Two hundred vendor spots were made available for
vendors, and they filled quickly.
Gazette file photo
Bounce houses are always a favorite for children
at the People’s Choice Festival.
“We have several artists return year after year, but we
also have new vendors each year,” she said. “We like
to keep things fresh and add new things when we can.
We went through a lot of applications this year. Lots of
people want to be a part of our event.”
Sometimes, Biddle said, the committee receives

interest from out-of-state vendors. Those applications are
immediately turned away.
“We want to keep everything local, including the art and
artists who display their works,” said Biddle.
Many of the vendors, including jewelry and knife makers,
woodworkers, painters, drafters and more, offer handmade
items. Several photographers display scenes depicting
landscapes and wildlife of Pennsylvania. There also will be a
handful of knitting and crocheting vendors present.
“Many people come to get their Christmas shopping done
early,” said Biddle.
In addition to the artists and their displays, there are also
nearly two dozen food vendors, a handful of specialty food
vendors and several area wineries who will be in attendance.
“We also have a tremendous lineup of entertainment
booked,” she said. “We have about 40 different bands,
performers and musicians that will use two stages to play
their music. We have rock music scheduled, big band music,
local professionals like Velveeta and Pure Cane Sugar, and
even belly dancers.”
Biddle said one of the best things about the People’s
Choice Festival is that it hasn’t changed much from that first
festival in the 1990s. She said the only difference is the size.
“Of course, we’re much bigger today than we were when it
first started,” she said. “People see the value in coming to
our event. There’s no fee to get in, the prices of the items
are affordable and we’re located in a wide-open space, so
there’s lots of room to roam freely.”
Gazette file photo
If you are looking for creative pieces of art, the
People’s Choice Festival is the place to be.
Biddle said those attending the event “won’t need a lot of
money.” Instead, she said, they’ll just need plenty of time to
stroll the grounds and take in all the wonderful booths and
tents.
“We have free water and sunscreen available,” said Biddle.
“Other than that, I suggest people wear something they
can be comfortable in and maybe bring a blanket to sit on
under a tree to escape the sun.”

Food and treats galore at

BOALSBURG — The 24th annual People’s Choice Festival
of Pennsylvania Arts & Crafts is scheduled for Thursday,
July 14, through Sunday, July 17, on the grassy grounds of
the Pennsylvania Military Museum in Historic Boalsburg,
and already, more than 20 food proprietors and a handful
of specialty vendors have signed on to be there.
Tom Sherlock, of Abbotstown, and Sherlock’s Beef Pit
has been a staple in the lineup. Located in a shady
spot at the end of the food vendor line, near the creek,

“We serve only one item and we do it very well,”
Sherlock said. “We have bottom round roasted to
perfection, sliced paper thin, piled high and topped with
your choice of caramelized onions, barbecue sauce or the
hottest horseradish you ever had.”
Sherlock, a former Penn State student, said he continues
to return each year because of all the friends he has
made, and because of the returning customers.
“The People’s Choice Festival is a well-attended event,”
he said. “I always enjoy returning to my old haunts, too.
I’ll be back next year as well.”
Billed as “The World’s Greatest Concession Crab Cakes,”
Sherri’s Fun Foods, owned and operated by Keith
Behney, of Camp Hill, returns for the 17th straight year in
2016. In addition to serving crab cakes, the concession
will also offer cream of crab soup and drinks.
“This is one of our favorite events,” said Behney. “Great
people come to it, great people run it and it’s just an allaround top-tier event.”

Sherlock’s Pit Beef offers beef — and lots of it.
Bob’s Concessions has served a number of different
items to festival-goers for the past decade. Owned by
Bob and Loretta Raycroft, of Wood, the food booth
offers roasted corn on the cob, loaded baked potatoes,
frozen chocolate-dipped bananas and grilled cheese
sandwiches on Texas toast.
“We have made friends with many craft vendors at the
festival,” said Bob Raycroft, “and have developed a
following of faithful customers in the Centre County
Area.”
8 — People’s Choice Festival 2016 — Centre County Gazette
Those visiting Bob’s Concessions in 2016 will have a few more
options.
“This year, we will be offering fresh steamed broccoli and fresh
fried bacon as options for the baked potatoes,” Raycroft said.
Bob’s Concessions will continue to return to the festival, as
long as he and his wife are able, he said.
“The festival has a wonderful, family-friendly atmosphere that
we value and wish to support,” he said.
Sherlock’s Beef Pit, Bob’s Concessions and Sherri’s Fun Foods
will surely be recognizable to past visitors of the event, but,
rest assured, there will be several new booths at which people
can feed their hunger.
Greg and LuAnn Yearick, of Centre Hall, will bring Cajun
Express II to the festival for the first time. The booth will sell a
variety of Cajun delights, such as shrimp-on-a-stick, frog legs,
catfish fillets and sandwiches, crab cake nuggets and more.
They will also add a new item to the menu for the People’s
Choice Festival — gator-on-a-stick.
The Yearicks grew up in Centre County, in the Centre Hall and
Boalsburg areas, and the People’s Choice Festival was an event
they attended as spectators. They noted that’s what makes it
so special for them to “have the honor” of being a vendor this
year.
Local concessionaires Ashley Hamilton and Greg Nau, of
Bellefonte, will bring Rosie’s Pierogies to the festival. The
business offers a variety of homemade pierogies, including
regular, jalapeno and bacon — an original recipe. The booth
will also serve the popular Polish dish haluski, made of
cabbage and egg noodles.
CHRIS MORELLI/Gazette file photo
Orangeade and lemonade are always in demand when
the heat is on.
According to the owners, Rosie’s Pierogies is excited to be
a part of the People’s Choice Festival and “can’t wait to see
everyone there.”

as “blood brothers who started playing on the streets of State
College in 2010.” The brothers, who are from Port Matilda, play
alternative, modern and folk acoustic rock. From ‘80s and ‘90s
rock to today’s music, the pair plays anything and everything
from Simon and Garfunkel to The Darkness.

■ North: The Backyard Rockers
Classic rock isn’t going anywhere, and it’s because musicians
like The Backyard Rockers are constantly finding fresh ways to
reinvigorate the genre. Known for their “free-form approach,”
these musicians channel Tom Petty, Bob Dylan and Neil Young,
reminding us all why they were the best musicians of their time.

Acoustic rock duo Tyler and Matt Greer describe themselves
■ South: Truth Seekers
Anyone who enjoys classic acoustic and folk rock should check

music. They call Central Pennsylvania home, and enjoy sharing
all of their songs with their audiences.

Wineries to showcase their
products at PCF
By G. KERRY WEBSTER
[email protected]
Choice Festival for the past three years, and, according to
Mitchell, the business is excited about making a return trip.
BOALSBURG — Local winemakers are showing up more
and more frequently at local summer festivals, and when the
People’s Choice Festival rolls into Boalsburg, with it will come
seven Pennsylvania wine producers, each bringing samples for
tasting and bottles to take home.
“It’s nice to run into our customers, as well as meet new ones,”
said Mitchell. “We’ve had a lot of fun the last three years just
being out there talking with people about wine, the festival
and all the beautiful works of art on display. It’s a perfect
festival.”
Four local wine companies will make return appearances to the
festival.
Seven Mountain Wine Cellars, like all winemakers at the event,
will be providing samples, as well as bottles to purchase.
Seven Mountain Wine Cellars has been producing wine for
the past seven years in Spring Mills. The business is owned by
Scott and Mary Ann Bubb, and each employee is a member of
the Bubb family.
“I’m not sure exactly how many varieties we’re going to
have at the festival, but I do encourage anyone who likes
wine to sample each one,” Mitchell said. He said favorites
of customers include Blackberry Merlot, which he said was a
“perfect middle-of-the-road” wine; Tickle Me Pink, which is the
customers’ choice of sweet wines; and All Razzed, which can
be used to make a delicious sangria.
“We’re very proud of our family and we’re all very passionate
about our craft,” said Brandon Mitchell, who manages Seven
Mountain’ Wine Cellar’s wine bar in Boalsburg. “That passion
translates into the taste of the many different varieties we have
available.”
Seven Mountain Wine Cellars has been present at the People’s
Joe and Betty Carroll has been operating Mount Nittany
Vineyard and Winery for 26 years. The business made its first
appearance at the People’s Choice Festival last season, and

according to Deb Young, tasting room representative, it was
well received.
“We’re happy to be coming back,” said Young. “It’s a great
atmosphere for a festival. All the people are friendly and we
enjoy meeting new people. The art is spectacular and the food
is just as good.
“This is an event we didn’t want to miss.”
Mount Nittany Vineyard and Winery produces 23 different
varieties of wine, and according to Young, it’s hard to choose
the best one.
“All of our selections are very smooth and very clear and they
all have a nice finish,” she said.
Unfortunately, the winemakers won’t be able to transport their
beautiful setting to the festival.
“The one main thing that stands out for us, besides our yummy
wine, is the venue,” said Young. “We sit on 6 acres here and
look out over the Tussey Mountain skiing area. We have a pond
and beautiful views all around. It’s breathtaking.”
Happy Valley Vineyard and Winery is located in State College
and produces specific varieties that transform well into its
specific wines. It was established in 1999 with an initial 3 acres
of vines on land first settled for farming in the 1850s. The
vineyard has since tripled in size and consists of white and
red cultivators that are well adapted to the climate changes in
Centre County.
Because the vineyard grows more than 13 different grapes, the
winery produces a wide variety of styles, from dry, fruity whites
to oaky, full-bodied reds.

The wineries area attracts festivalgoers interested in
trying local products.
U-Freeze Wine Slush, of Port Matilda, produces wine-based
drinks that are meant to be frozen and enjoyed.
Made with wine and natural ingredients, there is no highfructose corn syrup or chemicals added. The drinks are
produced by University Wine Company, a family-owned winery.
There are also a handful of wine producers from outside the
Centre Region that will attend the festival.

the festival since its beginning. Co-owner Joe Maxian said
its one of his favorite summer events in Pennsylvania, and
although it’s a bit of a drive, traveling the miles is worth it.
“The people really make the festival what it is, and that’s
quality,” said Maxian. “We’ve met so many people and have
acquired so many customers by coming to Boalsburg that
we make sure to make the People’s Choice Festival on the
calendar each year.”
According to Maxian, Sand Castle Winery will once again bring
its European-based recipes to Centre County.

Festival attendees will have a chance to sample several
wines from across Central Pennsylvania.

Starr Hill Winery is based in Curwensville and is owned and
operated by the Starr family. According to Ken Starr, his
company took root in 1994 with the purchase of property in
Clearfield County where he planted 12 vines. By 1998, there
were 3,000 vines and the winery was constructed. His business
went commercial in 2005.
“We now produce 40 different kinds of wine,” said Starr.
“We’re looking forward to being a part of the People’s Choice
Festival and to have the opportunity to share our product with
new faces.”
Sand Castle Winery, of Erwinna, Bucks County, has attended
“Our wines are heavily influenced by European-made wines,”
said Maxian. “We’ve been innovative in the way we grow our
grapes. Grapes that only could be grown on the West Coast
before are now being grown on the East Coast. We figured
out how to do it, and we’ve been able to produce some pretty
tasty wine with our fruits.”
Maxian said the company’s biggest seller is the Alpine Spice,
which is a mix of chardonnay and riesling milled with a secret
spice blend. Other favorites include the dry rose, which has a
hint of berry with a sweet finish, and the port wine, which is a
dessert wine.
Stonekeep Meadery is Pennsylvania’s first dedicated meadery,
and it’s bringing its honey-based wine to Boalsburg for the
festivities. The handcrafted mead is created from fresh fruits
and juices and raw honey, all harvested in the Keystone state.
The recipes are from centuries ago; however, Stonekeep adds
a modern twist to the formulas.
This will be Stonekeep’s first appearance at the People’s
Choice Festival.

at People’s Choice
By JODI MORELLI
[email protected]
BOALSBURG — While the People’s Choice Festival of
Pennsylvania Arts & Crafts was created to feature the work
of Pennsylvania artists, the festival has since grown into an
experience that kids will enjoy.
Activities for children kick off at 10 a.m. Thursday, July 14, and
continue straight through to the end of the festival, which
wraps up on Sunday, July 17.
The lineup for each day features the same activities, although
additional special events are scheduled on select days.
Saturday is Kids’ Character Day and the young artisans sale is
hosted only Thursday through Saturday.
THURSDAY, JULY 14
On Thursday from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m., the State College Senior
High Thespians will be hosting face painting. From 10 a.m. to

Understanding what matters means Nicole can rely
on her team of OB/GYN specialists to calm her worries,
