GRAACA Summer Tour
—Saturday, July 19, 2025, Harrisburg, PA
Join us July 19th as we explore and re-create the Triangle Tour to the “1921 Good Roads Celebration” held at Caledonia Park. Find out what motivated several hundred car owners to travel from Harrisburg joined by thousands more cars and tens of thousands of people in their eagerness to see the “17 Episode Pageant” that afternoon.
We will meet at 8:30 am on City Island in Harrisburg, in the parking lot north of Market Street Bridge.
We’ll pull out at 9:00 am and head to Dillsburg for coffee and donuts at Premier Garages. Then we’ll travel on through Gettysburg to 1913 Alignment of the Lincoln Highway to Cashtown where we will have a lunch buffet.
Cost of $20 per person includes the food, a copy of the original 80-page Good Roads Jubilee program, turn-by-turn directions with points of interest, historical commentary and reprints of newspaper accounts of the original event. Deadline to register is Tuesday, July 15. RSVP preferred by email. Contact Jeff Stonesifer at (717) 654-2463 or lha.pa.jeff@gmail.com for more information.
