In years past, Shenango China was
manufactured here and presidential service
collections were used in the White House
for President Eisenhower and President
Johnson. Along with President Reagan having
a collection specifically made for Air Force One.
Locals traveling across the country will quite
often still pick up dinnerware to check if it was
made by Shenango China.
Bob Hope can be heard on YouTube speaking
about his start in New Castle as part of a
vaudeville production. The Warner Brothers;
Sam, Albert, Jack and Harry, established their
first motion picture theater in 1907 showing
the silent film “The Great Train Robbery”.
This nickelodeon is being revived and is now
accepting tours at the Historic Warner Cascade
Theatre Museum.

Western PA Salad, Crane Room Grill
Dine Like a Local
13 The Ladies of the Dukes RestaurantDine on foods that are indicative to Western PA. Try
the unconventional French fries on a salad, Italian
wedding soup, lamb on the rod and grape leaves
from the Middle East. Whatever you choose, it’s all
here in Lawrence County.
Wedding Soup
Western PA Salad
A heaping helping of crispy French fries sit atop
your favorite bed of lettuce with adorned with
chicken or steak, tomatoes, cheese and dressing
makes this a staple in Western PA. A fun, fresh and
creative twist on a traditional salad.
Wedding Soup
A hearty soup made with greens, meatballs,
chicken, pastina and vegetables in a delicious
chicken broth. A warm bowl of Italian comfort.
Sticky Buns at Tavern on the Square
Made famous by Cora Durrast since 1931, The
Tavern Sticky Buns are homemade and baked fresh
daily. Served warm with a pat of butter, it’s hard Sticky Buns at Tavern on the Square
to resist these sweet rolls. You can eat them as an
appetizer, dessert, or take them home for a treat.
New Castle Chili Dogs
A product of Greek immigrants who came to
New Castle in the early 1900’s, New Castle chili is
different from any other chili – it’s a thin sauce with
minced meat. Make sure to order a hot dog with
“everything” meaning chili, onions and mustard.

Explore the Outdoors
21 Kayaking on the Slippery Rock Creek, Photo by Karen BauderThat spirit might include taking a walk on the
wild side at Living Treasures Wild Animal
Park, or meeting the local spirits at Haunted
Hill View Manor. Getting a little dirty in the
only underground riding in old limestone mines
at Mines & Meadows ATV Park or the thrill of
guided whitewater rafting and kayak tours via
Connoquenessing Outdoors on one of our
many blueways.
Maybe that sense of adventure is getting back into
nature with the local greenways at McConnells
Mill State Park, guided hiking tours with Penny
Allenwood Outdoors or with the plenty of local
and national trails. Feeling a little zen? Find
yourself at the two local labyrinths.
The fun doesn’t stop here. There’s plenty more to

Designated a National Recreation Trail in 2003, The Stavich Bike Trail is the
only bicycle trail in the United States that will take you through three different
townships, two different counties and two different states.
Twelve miles long and eight feet wide, the Trail runs parallel to the scenic Mahoning
River and the rails of the former Youngstown-New Castle street car line. Over
rolling hills, through farmlands and wooded countryside, the Trail unfolds east and
west to provide safe, barrier-free recreation all year long. In the spring, summer
and fall, the Trail is open for bicycle riding, hiking, walking and jogging; in the winter,
the Trail is used for cross-country skiing. Hours of use are from sunrise to sunset.
