Pitt Band, Grand Marshals, will headline
2019 Fort Ligonier Days Parade
The Fort Ligonier Days Parade continues to
be a one of the most popular features of
the three-day festival, attracting thousands
to the parade route up and down Main
Street. This year Mr. and Mrs. S.P. Mellon
will serve as honorary grand marshals,
riding in a beautifully restored 1934
Packard convertible, owned by Guy Davis of
Greensburg.
The University of Pittsburgh Marching Band,
sporting their new uniforms, will be another
highlight of this year’s parade. This will
be their only appearance in a community
parade this year. The Pitt Band is one of the
greatest traditions at the university. As the
largest and most visible student organization
on campus, Pitt Band is dedicated to excellence in marching and musical performance,
promoting spirit on and off campus, providing an unforgettable experience for Pitt fans and
band members alike.
The big parade will step off from East Main and Bell Streets at 11 AM Saturday, Oct. 12. Unless
duty calls, the Pennsylvania State Police Ceremonial Unit will lead the parade along with the
Ligonier Valley Honor Guard.
Along with the Pitt Band, some of the largest high school bands in the region will be taking
part, including the Butler Golden Tornado Band and the Morgantown, WV band, both 300
strong. Also look for the Hempfield, Derry and Ligonier Valley bands. Appearing for the first
time ever will be the Philip Barbour High School Band from Philippi, West Virginia. “They called
and asked to take part in the parade because they’ve heard so much about it,” related Tom
Stablein, parade chairman.
In addition, Steeline Pittsburgh (Steelers’ band) will be
marching, and if you like bagpipes, the Seton Hill Pipe Band,
the Southwest PA Pipe Band and the Pittsburgh Firefighters
Memorial Pipe Band will be appearing. In addition, the
Kittanning Firemen’s Band will perform, joined by their horse-
drawn Pittsburgh Brewing Company wagon.
The “Shopper Chopper,” a huge motorized grocery cart that
is street legal, will be returning for the parade, sponsored by
Giant Eagle, along with the big Radio Flyer Wagon, coming all
the way from Mississippi – a 15-hour drive.
Former Steelers quarterback Charlie Batch will also be back (he loves taking part in the Fort
FORT LIGONIER DAYS IS A PET-FREE ENVIRONMENT I NO BACKPACKS I NO OPEN CONTAINERS
4
Ligonier Days Parade), and look for Pittsburgh and
Johnstown newscasters including Wendy Bell of KDKA
Radio, WTAE’s Michelle Wright and Kelly Sasso, WPXI’s
Melanie Marsalko, Rick Earle and Scott Harbaugh, and
WWCP’s Jess Plue and Josh Fosbrink.
The Forces of Fort Ligonier – made up of 18th century
British, French, Colonial and Indian re-enactors – will
have a big contingent among the historic marching
units. Children who took part in Fort Ligonier’s annual
colonial costume contest will also be appearing. The
HT High Flyers jump rope team will be performing
along the parade route, and there will also be a
contingent of young 5K runners. Also watch for Pittsburgh professional sports mascots Steely
McBeam, Iceburg, and the Pirate Parrot, arranged by Ligonier Giant Eagle.
Antique cars and trucks will also be in the lineup including at least 10 Fords from the Three
Rivers Model A Club along with Art McMullen’s Model A and a contingent of Power Wagons.
Gallliker Dairy will have a replica of its first ice cream delivery truck, circa 1914. Also look for
the popular Syria Temple Shrine units and their zany vehicles.
As for floats, look for the Ligonier Valley Historical Society (last year’s winner), Valley School
of Ligonier, Ligonier Cub Scout Pack 370, Derry Area Historical Society and Christ the Divine
Teacher School, Latrobe. Valley School has been participating for more than two decades. This
year’s theme is “Preserving Ligonier’s History.”
Chairman Stablein credits a loyal contingent of about 20 volunteers who show up Saturday
morning to make it happen and keep the parade running smoothly, plus his committee that
works throughout the year – Susan Woolridge and Barb Smith and Sheryl Bendorf.
Parade-goers are reminded to refrain from setting up chairs along the parade route until 6
PM Friday. Organizers also note that no pets are allowed in the festival area. For the latest

Crafters from 15 states
represented at Fort Ligonier Days
Fort Ligonier Days is well known for its battle re-enactments at Fort Ligonier, the popular
Saturday parade, food booths around the Ligonier Diamond and almost constant
entertainment, but for craft lovers it’s a huge show featuring upwards of 200 booths at a
half dozen locations.
A great majority of the crafters are from Pennsylvania, but this year’s list shows nine
from Ohio, seven from New York, two each from West Virginia, Michigan, Wisconsin,
Minnesota, and others from Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Connecticut,
Tennessee, Indiana, and as far as Alabama and Colorado.
Those attending Fort Ligonier Days this year will be pleased to see a variety of new items
as well as some popular booths that festival
goers return to year after year.
Roger Young, a potter from Somerset who
now lives near Cumberland, MD, is one of
the those crafters who has been showing his
wares at Fort Ligonier Days year after year.
He first came in 1976, the U.S. Bicentennial
year, so this marks his 44th consecutive
appearance. “I was right out of college
and heard about the show,” he recalls. He
applied and was accepted and has been
coming ever since.
“I liked it. It’s a great time of year, and I’ve
developed a tremendous following. People
come from all over to my booth – it’s almost
like a reunion. There are so many returning
people, and I know many of them by name.
Some have been collectors 30 to 35 years.
It’s a wonderful weekend to connect. It’s the
people, not so much the sales, that I look
forward to.”
Roger still does his work the old-fashioned
way, without shortcuts. “It’s a lot of work
to make good pottery,” he says. “It’s
back-breaking work. I fire at the hottest
temperatures (2,400 degrees F. with reduced
FORT LIGONIER DAYS IS A PET-FREE ENVIRONMENT I NO BACKPACKS I NO OPEN CONTAINERS
7
atmosphere), so the process is very expensive.” But the result is “unique and glorious
glazes.” Over the years, he’s fired over 800 kilns of glazed pottery – sometimes 200 to
300 coffee cups per firing, using a kiln in Somerset he designed and built himself in
1996.
Roger says he tries to make things that are usable – drinking vessels, bowls, pitchers,
etc. His inventory normally includes 35 to 40 different pieces. He also does some custom
work. At age 66, he says he’s winding down. He only does one other festival, in Bedford,
and his display is smaller than it once was. But he always looks forward to returning to
Fort Ligonier Days. His booth can be found in the Municipal Lot near the West Church
Street entrance.
Sarah McCarty, an English teacher from Richeyville, Washington County, PA, has attended
Fort Ligonier Days in the past, but this is her first year as a crafter, bringing “Nebraska
Bridge Vintage” to the show. The name comes from an iconic bridge near Tionesta, PA,
her childhood home.
About 11 years ago she crafted a spoon ring, then another, “and it became a thing,”
she relates. “I got my dad involved and we did a few shows and I perfected it. Soon
I was doing juried shows.” The business evolved as she learned new techniques for
making jewelry including “cold formation” of metal and “copper fold-forming,” which
involved lots of hammering. She went to Aruba to learn copper form-folding under
Hendrick Schouten, an award-winning artist. Sarah also learned to replicate techniques
from the copper-bronze age such as hammering metal around antlers. More recently she
has begun incorporating gemstones, antique sterling silver, and even shards of pottery
recovered from the Thames River in London in her work.
Sarah McCarty was once named “Artist of the Year” at the well-known Shaker Woods
Festival in Columbiana, Ohio. You can see her unique jewelry – including rings, earrings,
necklaces and bracelets – in the Mellon Park lot.

Another artist to look for in the Mellon Lot is a
man from Minnesota who also works with antlers –
moose, elk and deer antlers – along with barnwood
at “Antler and Wood Creations.” Returning for his
fifth or sixth year, Glenn Eilders says he first heard
about the Fort Ligonier Days show from other
crafters and now enjoys returning every year.
Glenn uses antlers that are naturally shed –
finding some and buying a lot – from 1,000 to
3,000 pounds a year. The barnwood is reclaimed
“from barns we take down in Minnesota.” He
lives in Courtland, about 100 miles southwest of
Minneapolis. The wood and the antlers are cleaned
and sealed and made into items ranging from fire
pokers to bottle openers to elaborate chandeliers.
The antlers also make good dog chews, he says,
selling a good many for that purpose.
Glenn works year-round creating his art and does
shows in 11 states including Pennsylvania and New York. He always enjoys returning to
Mellon Park for Fort Ligonier Days. “It’s a great show with good people and we always
have lots of sales,” he says.
Zach Landry of Ligonier is one of the local artists among this year’s crafters. His “White
Sage & Sapphire” booth can also be found in Mellon Park. He makes handcrafted jewelry
from gemstones using sterling silver and 14K gold.
The festival’s six craft sites are linked by shuttle bus. These include the Municipal Parking
Lot, Mellon Park, Fairfield Street, Loyalhanna Street parking lot (near Fort Ligonier), and at
two sites on the grounds of the former Ligonier Valley Railroad station (now the Ligonier
Valley School District offices) on West Main Street.
A complete list
of crafters, their
specialties and
their locations
can be found in
this Fort Ligonier
Days program. For

33Fort Ligonier Days 5K Run/Walk
Hopes to Attract Over 300 on Sunday
The Fort Ligonier Days 5K Run/Walk, which attracted over 300 participants last year, will be
held this Sunday, Oct. 13, starting and ending at Ligonier Valley High School, 40 Springer Road
on the western edge of town.
Pam Anderson, 5K co-chairman, is hoping the increasingly popular 5K event will attract even
more participants this year. Sunday’s race will begin at 8:30 AM with re-enactors from Fort
Ligonier firing muskets to start the race. Walkers will start two minutes after the runners are off.
In addition to the 5K event, there is the Cannonball Dash and obstacle course for
youngsters 10 and under, also at the high school. The Kids’ Cannonball Dash starts at 9:30 AM
and the amazing obstacle course will also be open during the 5K event. “The obstacle course
had become a huge hit and will be open the whole time,” said Anderson. Age categories for
the Dash are 5 and under and 6-10. All the children taking part will receive a gift.
At the start/finish line, Galliker’s will have beverages for participants and there “Smiley”
cookies from Eat’n Park, plus bananas and bagels for participants. Baskets of great gifts will be
raffled. Paul Gunter will serve as DJ for the festivities.
“This has become such a fun family event,” said Anderson. “It’s been so gratifying to see it
grow. We now have very young children running the 5K – along with their parents.” The
event even attracts re-enactors from Fort Ligonier – some running with full gear and carrying
their muskets! Children running in the 5K can also march in Saturday’s big parade. Kip and
Sandy Crumrine and Valley Youth Network volunteers will be on hand to help as always, along
with Kim Wallace and Cindy Smith.
