The committee has voted on our Christmas trip for this year. We will be going to Amish country in Ohio (Sugarcreek and Walnut Creek) November 19 – 21, 2019. The trip will include 2 shows, 2 dinners, Lehman’s Hardware, Walnut Creek Cheese, Schrock’s Heritage Village, and possibly other sights, lodging, transportation, and gratuities. On the way home we will stop in Wheeling at Cabela’s and view the lights before returning to Tucker County. The cost of the trip is $375 per person based on double occupancy.
