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 Framing Experts for Over 41 years!

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.” For more information, visit www.peopleschoicefestival.com.

KERRY WEBSTER [email protected] 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, Attention Festival Goers: Refreshments are just a block away! 420 Boal Avenue Boalsburg, PA 16827 (814) 466-6360 www.hvrbeer.com “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.” WE ARE BEER Happy Valley Refreshment Full Service Beer Distributor 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.” Food continued on page 10 ® Proud to serve Centre County and its surrounding communities.

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.

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. Gazette file photo 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.

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. Gazette file photo Festival attendees will have a chance to sample several wines from across Central Pennsylvania. Wineries continued from page 27 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.

GAMEDAY GAZETTE OCTOBER 8-14, 2015 INDIANA VS. PENN STATE ■ TIME: NOON ■ HOMECOMING Pen TV: ESPN2 By PAT ROTHDEUTSCH [email protected] The Nittany Lions took lead into halftime, and they a 10-point did open it up once for a long three-play drive in the third quarter after Army pulled to within 13-7. But that was it, as they again relied on their defense to pull out the Army’s relentless triple option win against — which it did with a sack late in the fourth quarter on an Army fourth-and-5 play from the 50. “Not where we need to be” Penn State coach James Franklinis the way described the PSU offense. But Indiana was right there, with chances to tie late, even though starting quarterback Nate Sudfeld left and was replaced by sneaky-fasthe game t Zander Diamont. Diamont finished the game as Indiana’s leading rusher with 98 yards on seven carries and a touchdown . He also threw for 76 yards on six of 14 pass completions. In all, Indiana ran 91 plays, scored three rushing touchdowns and gained 402 yards against the Buckeye defense. “There’s no doubt about it. Not where we need to be. We’re inconsisten t.

It’s going to be a tough environment.” So, this is a match-up of contrasting teams. Indiana comes in with a potent scoring attack and a porous defense, and Penn State has an outstandin g defense and an offense that has not come together for any consistent length of time. This is another game where the Penn State defense will again have best. But it is also a game whereto be at its it will need to be complemented with some offense and good field position.
